Het algemene lyrics topic

Een beetje als het 'Welk nummer luister je nu' topic, maar dan met lyrics. Post hieronder lyrics die je helemaal geweldig vindt, of van het nummer dat je toevallig nu aan het luisteren bent. Works either way for me.

Citaat :

If I say I don't need anyone
I can say these things to you
'Cause I can turn on anyone
Just like I've turned on you
I've got a tongue like a razor
A sweet switchblade knife
And I can do you favors
But then you'll do whatever I like

Here I am
And you're a Rocket Queen
I might be a little young
But honey I ain't naive
Here I am
And you're a Rocket Queen oh yeah
I might be too much
But honey you're a bit obscene

I've seen everything imaginable
Pass before these eyes
I've had everything that's tangible
Honey you'd be surprised
I'm a sexual innuendo
In this burned out paradise
If you turn me on to anything
You better turn me on tonight

I see you standin'
Standin' on your own
It's such a lonely place for you
For you to be
If you need a shoulder
Or if you need a friend
I'll be here standing
Until the bitter end
No one needs the sorrow
No one needs the pain
I hate to see you
Walking out there
Out in the rain
So don't chastise me
Or think I, I mean you harm
Of those that take you
Leave you strung out
Much too far
Baby-yeah

Don't ever leave me
Say you'll always be there
All I ever wanted
Was for you
To know that I care

Oh yeah. Next!

Citaat :

This fear has me chilled down to the bone
And I have been haunted by these things I still have left to say
I’m weary of fighting this alone
So tired of holding on to strings much better left to fray

And I said
Hear me now here and now I’m calling
Memories wear me down
And this seems so complicated
When all I want is just the truth

I’m wilted and faded after all
Too strung out and burnt out to be half the man that I could be
I’ll never belong inside your world
So black out the sun and leave me to play out the same old tragedy

And I said
Hear me now here and now I’m calling
Memories wear me out
And this seems too complicated
When all I want is just the truth

Hear me now here and now I’m calling
Memories wear me out
And this seems too complicated
When all I want is just the truth

You’re my savior after all
Use your flame to guide me home
And then lay your hand on me

And I said
Hear me now here and now I’m calling
Memories wear me down
And this seems so complicated
When all I want is just the truth

Hear me now here and now I’m calling
Memories wear me out
And this seems too complicated
When all I want is a part of you

Seether - Here and Now :3

Hmm, ja, vergeten erbij te zetten dat het Gn'R - Rocket Queen is.. Even opnieuw.

Citaat :

Radio - radio
I'd sit alone and watch your light
My only friend through teenage nights
And everything I had to know
I heard it on my radio

You gave them all those old time stars
Through wars of worlds - invaded by Mars
You made 'em laugh - you made 'em cry
You made us feel like we could fly
Radio

So don't become some background noise
A backdrop for the girls and boys
Who just don't know or just don't care
And just complain when you're not there
You had your time, you had the power
You've yet to have your finest hour
Radio - radio

All we hear is radio ga ga
radio goo goo
radio ga ga
All we hear is radio ga ga
radio blah blah
Radio what's new?
Radio, someone still loves you

We watch the shows - we watch the stars
On videos for hours and hours
We hardly need to use our ears
How music changes through the years

Let's hope you never leave old friend
Like all good things on you we depend
So stick around 'cos we might miss you
When we grow tired of all this visual
You had your time - you had the power
You've yet to have your finest hour
Radio - radio

All we hear is radio ga ga
Radio goo goo
Radio ga ga
All we hear is radio ga ga
Radio goo goo
Radio ga ga
All we hear is radio ga ga
Radio blah blah
Radio what's new ?
Someone still loves you

Radio ga ga (ga ga)
Radio ga ga (ga ga)
Radio ga ga (ga ga)

You had your time - you had the power
You've yet to have your finest hour
Radio - radio

Queen - Radio Ga Ga

Een Melodic Death Metal nummer van Wintersun.

6. Starchild

[Part I (Wanderer of Time)]

So mysterious is your world,
Concealed beyond the stars
Far away from the earth,
It flows one with time and dark as the night
Million shapes and colours
Are storming inside your mind
Creating endless dimensions
Forming universes without walls

Let go! of the stars, the stars that fell into the sea
Let go! of your thoughts and dreams,
What can you see now

You cannot save them anymore
- Wanderer of time -
It's too late now
- Creator of Dimensions -
Destroy the walls of time
Hands of the blind are holding your fate
Tides of life will take you away, will take you away

Starchild!
Visions are born from the unknown force
It dominates the way of time
The dream only ends, when the worlds come to an end
Starchild!
You cannot escape to the dark streams of the sea,
To suppress your dreams
Nothing can keep you away from the need to create
'cause your path is free...

[Part II (Burning Star)]

I've hold the fire within myself
Years I've walked in the coldest winds
Through the deserts of sand and snow
The time is passing and I know;
That I'm wasting my life, destroying my dreams
I'm diving into the bottomless sea
From sorrow and pain I find my strength
The more pain I feel, the more I see
Now I'm watching my life flowing in the dark
Like streams of fear running through my heart
And it's wearing me down until I'm gone
Soon I'll join the endless whirls of stars
And I fall (something is dying, yet something is born)
deeper into the unknown voids
And I fall (when will I find my silent dawn)
into infinity like a burning star
I fall like a burning star!

[Part III (The Creation)]

The curtains of mist are fading
And the veils of star clouds are revealed
Storms of new energy
Flows in the depths of my mind
New constellations are born
In total harmony of perfection
And the dissonant unbalance was broken
As the colours fell straight from the light

[Part IV (The Sea of Stars)]

I'm floating in the sea of stars,
I'm drifting away from the shore
I will be lost in the dream when the dark days come
But I will make the time run backwards and
I'll make the stars shine again
I will light up the sky to a bright crimson nights
... And they'll shine together forever
With brilliant silver colours they'll shine forever

[Part V (Finale)]

The whirls of stars takes you now far away
Away from the cold nightmare
Let go of you thoughts and dreams
And you will feel the warmth once again
Starchild! in the Sea of Stars you fall
You fall like a burning star!
Starchild! in the Sea of Stars you fall
... But there is no end to creation

Wintersun - Starchild

Iron Maiden - No More Lies

Citaat :

There's a darkening sky before me.
There's no time to prepare.
Salvage a lost horizon
But no regrets from me.
Maybe I'll be back some other day. (some other day)
To live again, just who can say.
In what shape or form that I might be.
Just another chance for me.

A hurried time, no disgrace,
Instead of racing to conclusion,
Wishing all my life away,
No-one can stop me now.

Time is up, it couldn't last,
But there's more things I'd like to do,
I'm coming back to try again
Someday, maybe, I'll wait. Till then...

No more lies!

They're all sitting at my table.
Talking tall and drinking wine.
Their time is up just like me
But they just don't know it yet.
So just a word of warning
When you're in your deepest dreams.
There's nothing you can hide from.
I've got my eye on you.

The clock is fast. The hour is near.
Eventful past is everclear.
My life is set. The time is here.
I think I'm coming home...

No more lies!

-solos-

A hurried time, no disgrace,
Instead of racing to conclusion,
Wishing all your life away,
No-one can stop me now.

Time is up, it couldn't last,
But there's more things I have to do,
I'm coming back to try again,
Don't tell me that this is the end...

No more lies!

Ik vind deze lyrics echt geweldig.. Het nummer beschrijft een hoofdpersoon die op het punt staat om dood te gaan, maar welke niet bang is om te sterven omdat hij 'thuis komt' en vanwege het feit dat er geen leugens meer zullen zijn, maar toch hoopt hij dat hij ooit nog eens terugkomt omdat hij nog niet klaar is.

In één woord: prachtig!

Fight like a girl - Emilie Autumn
Prachtig nummer ...
