Fate_: "Kiss Of Life" by Sade

There must have been an angel by my side
Something heavenly led me to you
Look at the sky
It's the color of love
There must have been an angel by my side
Something heavenly came down from above
He led me to you
He led me to you
He built a bridge to your heart
All the way
How many tons of love inside
I can't say

When I was led to you
I knew you were the one for me
I swear the whole world could feel my heartbeat
When I lay eyes on you
Ay ay ay
You wrapped me up in
The color of love

You gave me the kiss of life
Kiss of Life
You gave me the kiss that's like
The kiss of life

Wasn't it clear from the start
Look the sky is full of love
Yeah the sky is full of love
He built a bridge to your heart
All the way
How many tons of love inside
I can't say

You gave me the kiss of life
Kiss of Life
You gave me the kiss that's like
The kiss of life

You gave me the kiss of life
Kiss of Life
You gave me the kiss that's like
The kiss of life

You gave me the kiss of life
Kiss of Life
You gave me the kiss that's like
The kiss of life

You wrapped me up in the color of love
Must have been an angel come down from above
Giving me love yeah
Giving me love yeah

You gave me the kiss of life
Kiss of Life
You gave me the kiss of life
The kiss of life

If you find me feeding daisies,
Please turn my face up to the sky.
And leave me be
Watching the moon roll by.
Whatever I was,
You know it was all because

Washing the bullshit down.

Wonderbunny: Certainly the children have seen them
In quiet places where the moss grows green
Coloured shells jangle together
The wind is cold, the year is old, the trees whisper together
And bend in the wind, they lean

Next week a monkey is coming to stay

If I was a witches' hat
Sitting on her head like a paraffin stove
I'd fly away and be a bat
Across the air I would rove

Stepping like a tightrope walker
Putting one foot after another
Wearing black cherries for rings

Mr__Turtle: The the - Mercy beat

There's a high wind blowing and the stars are shining bright
Oh what a night this is gonna be I think I'll let the world sleep without me
I got eye open, one eye closed and my thin body is trembling beneath the bed clothes
my heart is beating against the roof of my mouth, it's almost time to get out of this house.
I got one hand on the radio, one hand on the wheel
Got my right foot on the floor boards, I m preparing to kill or be killed
there's a high wind blowing and the stars are shining bright and the rain upon the tarmac helps my sail through the traffic lights
I'm heading down to the dock of the bay, to feel the power of the waves
gonna move up close to the wind and wrestle with the thoughts solitude always bring

struanrobertson02: Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond. Not necessarily my favourite lyrics, but one of. Also possibly the best written poetry by Floyd their is.

Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
You were caught in the crossfire of childhood and stardom, blown on the steel breeze.
Come on you target for faraway laughter, come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine!

You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Threatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Well you wore out your welcome with random precision, rode on the steel breeze.
Come on you raver, you seer of visions, come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine!

struanrobertson02: S hine on Y ou Crazy D iamond. Is about the former Floyd member and Floyd founder. Syd Barrett, who was a king of Psychedelica and music creativity. And the song is in remembrance of him. The song is about him having to leave the band after drugs got too his head and where he got a mental illness, Schizophrenia. And how the band miss him. Syd gave up on his musical career, but would go into Floyd's studio time to time. From the drug addiction, Syd changed in looks drastically over time. And the other members of Floyd didn't sven recognise that was him until some time later after knowing. Roger waters, who is the lyric writer for Floyd, and Friend of Syd, became so depressed from knowing that's how much Syd changed and not realising that was even him, made Roger become Tearful.

Now look at those deep metaphorical lyrics and think about how he work with this story.

Syd Barrett, if you haven't known of him already, withered away in July 7, 2006 of Cancer.
He was one of the most fantastically creative and influential musicians ever.

"Roger was there, and he was sitting at the desk, and I came in and I saw this guy sitting behind him--huge, bald, fat guy. I thought, "He looks a bit...strange..." Anyway, so I sat down with Roger at the desk and we worked for about ten minutes, and this guy kept on getting up and brushing his teeth and then sitting--doing really weird things, but keeping quiet. And I said to Roger, "Who is he?" and Roger said "I don't know." and I said "Well, I assumed he was a friend of yours," and he said "No, I don't know who he is." Anyway, it took me a long time, and then suddenly I realised it was Syd, after maybe 45 minutes. He came in as we were doing the vocals for Shine On You Crazy Diamond, which was basically about Syd. He just, for some incredible reason picked the very day that we were doing a song which was about him. And we hadn't seen him, I don't think, for two years before. That's what's so incredibly...weird about this guy. And a bit disturbing, as well, I mean, particularly when you see a guy, that you don't, you couldn't recognise him. And then, for him to pick the very day we want to start putting vocals on, which is a song about him. Very strange" - Richard Wright, keyboardist of Pink Floyd.

Alex_flame: Queen: Who want's to live forever

There's no time for us
There's no place for us
What is this thing that build our dreams, yet slips away from us?

Who wants to live forever,
Who wants to live forever?

There's no chance for us,
It's all decided for us,
This world has only one sweet moment set aside from us.

Who wants to live forever,
Who dares to love forever,
When love must die.

But touch my tears,
With your lips,
Touch my whole world with your finger tips.
And we can have forever,
And we can love forever,
Forever is our today.

Who wants to live forever,
Who wants to live forever,
Forever is our today.
Who waits forever anyway?

Alex_flame: Limp Bizkit - Behind Blue Eyes (fantastic )


No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes

And no one knows what it's like
To be hated
To be fated
To telling only lies

But my dreams they aren't as empty
As my concience seems to be
I have hours only lonely
My love is vengeance that's never free

No one knows what it's like to feel these feelings like I do
And I blame you
No one bites back as hard on their anger
None of my pain woe can show through

But my dreams they aren't as empty
As my concience seems to be
I have hours only lonely
My love is vengeance that's never free

No one knows what it's like to be mistreated
To be defeated
Behind blue eyes

And no one knows how to say they are sorry
And don't worry
I am not telling lies

But my dreams they aren't they empty
As my concience seems to be
I have hours only lonely
My love is vengeance that's never free

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes .

The monkey sat on a pile of stone
And he stared at the broken bone in his hand
Strains of a Viennese quartet rang out across the land
The monkey looked up at the stars
And he thought to himself
Memory is a stranger
History is for fools
And he cleaned his hands in a pool of holy writing
Turned his back on the garden and set out for the nearest town
Hold on hold on soldier
When you add it all up
The tears and the marrowbone
There's an ounce of gold
And an ounce of pride in each ledger
And the Germans kill the Jews
And the Jews kill the Arabs
And the Arabs kill the hostages
And that is the news
And is it any wonder that the monkey's confused
He said Mama Mama, the President's a fool
Why do I have to keep reading these technical manuals
And the joint chiefs of staff
And the brokers on Wall Street said
Don't make us laugh, you're a smart kid
Time is linear
Memory's a stranger
History is for fools
Man is a tool in the hands
Of the great God Almighty
And they gave him command of a nuclear submarine
Sent him back in search of the Garden of Eden
Can't you see
It all makes perfect sense
Expressed in dollars and cents,
Pounds, shillings and pence
Can't you see
It all makes perfect sense
Little black soul departs in perfect focus
Hold on soldier
Prime time fodder for the News at Nine
Hold on, hold on soldier
Darling is the child warm in the bed tonight
[Marv Albert:] "Hi everybody I'm Marv Albert
And welcome to our telecast
Coming to you live from Memorial Stadium
It's a beautiful day
And today we expect a sensational matchup
But first our global anthem"
Can't you see
It all makes perfect sense
Expressed in dollars and cents,
Pounds, shillings and pence
Can't you see
It all makes perfect sense
[Marv:] "And here come the players
As I speak to you now, the captain
Has his cross hairs zeroed in on the oil rig
He's at periscope depth
It looks to me like he's going to attack
By the way did you know that a submarine
Captain earns 200,000 dollars a year"
[Edward:]"That's less tax Marv"
[Marv:]"Yeah, less tax
Thank you Edward"
[Edward:]"You're welcome"
[Marv:]"Now back to the game...he fires one...yes
There goes two; both fish are running
The rig is going into a prevent defense
Will they make it? I don't think so"
Look out!
Look at that baby burn!

Expressed in dollars and cents,

Mdnght Vixen: Feelin' Love
By: Paula Cole

You make me feel like a sticky pistil
Leaning into her stamen.
You make me feel like Mr. Sunshine himself.
You make me feel like splendor in the grass where we're rolling
Damn skippy babe
You make me feel like the Amazon's running between my thighs.

You make me feel love. . .

You make me feel like a candy apple red and horny
You make me feel like I want to be a dumb blonde
In a centerfold, the girl next door.
And I would open the door and I'd be all wet
With my tits soaking through this tiny little t-shirt that I'd be wearing
And you would open the door and tie me up to the bed.

You make me feel love. . .

Lover, I don't know who I am.
Am I Barry White - am I Isis?
Lover I'm laced with your unconscious,
I will be your Desdemona
(take your time)

You make me feel, ohhh
You make me feel, ahhh
You make me feel, oh, oh, ah, ah, oh, oh...
