Hello
I've Waited Here For You
Everlong

Tonight
I Throw Myself Into
And Out Of The Red Out Of Her Head She Sang

Come Down And Waste Away With Me
Down With Me

Slow How You Wanted It To Be
I'm Over My Head Out Of Her Head She Sang

Chorus
And I Wonder
When I Sing Along With You
If Everything Could Ever Feel This Real Forever
If Anything Could Ever Be This Good Again
The Only Thing I'll Ever Ask Of You
You've Got To Promise Not To Stop When I Say When

She Sang

Breathe Out
So I Can Breathe You In
Hold You In

And Now
I Know You've Always Been
Out Of Your Head Out Of My Head I Sang

Repeat Chorus

And I Wonder
If Everything Could Ever Feel This Real Forever
If Anything Could Ever Be This Good Again
The Only Thing I'll Ever Ask Of You
You've Gotta Promise Not To Stop When I Say When

All this talk of getting old
It's getting me down my love
Like a cat in a bag, waiting to drown
This time I'm comin' down

And I hope you're thinking of me
As you lay down on your side
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again

Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again

But I know I'm on a losing streak
'Cause I passed down my old street
And if you wanna show, then just let me know
And I'll sing in your ear again

Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again

'Cause baby, ooh, if heaven calls, I'm coming, too
Just like you said, you leave my life I'm better off dead

All this talk of getting old
It's getting me down my love
Like a cat in a bag, waiting to drown
This time I'm comin' down

Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again

'Cause baby, ooh, if heaven calls, I'm coming, too
Just like you said, you leave my life, I'm better off dead

But if you wanna show, just let me know
And I'll sing in your ear again

Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again

Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again

I'm never going down, I'm never coming down
No more, no more, no more, no more, no more
I'm never coming down, I'm never going down
No more, no more, no more, no more, no more

I would swallow my pride, I would choke on the rinds
But the lack thereof would leave me empty inside
I would swallow my doubt, turn it inside out
Find nothin but faith in nothing
Wanna put my tender heart in a blender
Watch it spin round to a beautiful oblivion
Rendezvous then I'm through with you

I burn, burn like a wicker cabinet
Chalk white and oh so frail
I see our time heres gotten stale
The tick-tock of the clock is painful
All sane and logical
I wanna tear it off the wall
I hear words in clips and phrases
I think sick like ginger ale
My stomach turns and I exhale

I would swallow my pride, I would choke on the rinds
But the lack thereof would leave me empty inside
I would swallow my doubt, turn it inside out
Find nothin but faith in nothing
Wanna put my tender heart in a blender
Watch it spin round to a beautiful oblivion
Rendezvous then I'm through with you

So callous where my mind states
But it's not my state of mind
I'm not as ugly sad as you
Or am I origami, folded up and just pretend?
Demented as the motives in your head

I would swallow my pride, I would choke on the rinds
But the lack thereof would leave me empty inside
I would swallow my doubt, turn it inside out
Find nothin but faith in nothing
Wanna put my tender heart in a blender
Watch it spin round to a beautiful oblivion
Rendezvous then I'm through with you

I alone am the one you
Don't know you need
Take heed of your ego
Make me blind when your eyes close sink
When you get close tie me to the bedpost
I alone am the one you
Don't know you need
You don't know you need me
Make me blind when your eyes close
Tie me to bedbost

I would swallow my pride, I would choke on the rinds
But the lack thereof would leave me empty inside
I would swallow my doubt, turn it inside out
Find nothin but faith in nothing
Wanna put my tender heart in a blender
Watch it spin round to a beautiful oblivion
Rendezvous then I'm through with you

Now I'm through with you
Through with you
Rendezvous then I'm through with you.

Goo Goo Dolls - Iris

And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
'Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
And you bleed just to know you're alive

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

I hear Brenda's got a baby
But, Brenda's barely got a brain
A damn shame
Tha girl can hardly spell her name
(That's not our problem, that's up ta Brenda's family)
Well let me show ya how it affects our whole community
Now Brenda never really knew her moms and her dad was a junky
Went in debt to his arms, it's sad
Cause I bet Brenda doesn't even know
Just cause your in tha ghetto doesn't mean ya can't grow
But oh, that's a thought, my own revelation
Do whatever it takes ta resist tha temptation
Brenda got herself a boyfriend
Her boyfriend was her cousin, now lets watch tha joy end
She tried to hide her pregnancy, from her family
Who didn't really care to see, or give a damn if she
Went out and had a church of kids
As long as when tha check came they got first dibs
Now Brendas belly is gettin bigger
But no one seems ta notice any change in her figure
She's 12 years old and she's having a baby
In love with tha molester, who's sexing her crazy
And yet she thinks that he'll be with her forever
And dreams of a world with tha two of them are together, whatever
He left her and she had tha baby solo, she had it on tha bathroom floor
And didn't know so, she didn't know, what ta throw away and what ta keep
She wrapped tha baby up and threw him in tha trash heep
I guess she thought she'd get away
Wouldn't hear tha cries
She didn't realize
How much tha tha little baby had her eyes
Now tha babys in tha trash heep balling
Momma can't help her, but it hurts ta hear her calling
Brenda wants ta run away
Momma say, you makin' me lose pay, tha social workers here everyday
Now Brenda's gotta make her own way
Can't go to her family, they won't let her stay
No money no babysitter, she couldn't keep a job
She tried ta sell crack, but end up getting robbed
So now what's next, there ain't nothin left ta sell
So she sees sex as a way of leavin hell
It's payin tha rent, so she really can't complain
Prostitute, fair slang, and Brenda's her name, she's got a baby

I just need this to be all right
I can't feel this another night

I can't take this I come unglued
I just need this to be alright
I can't feel this another night

I can't take this I come unglued
I might breakdown in front of you
necessary to medicate
I'm not sleeping, can't stay awake

Can't see through this
Too much pressure
Drowning in this
Too much pressure

If you need me I'll be here
Half unconscious to escape my fear

I can't take this I come unglued
I might breakdown in front of you
necessary to medicate
I'm not sleeping, can't stay awake

Can't see through this
Too much pressure
Drowning in this
Too much pressure

My head hurts this shit isn't getting me high
My chest is so tight am I going to die
My stomach's in knots and the room starts to spin
As I wait for this valium to slowly kick in

Can't see through this
Too much pressure
Drowning in this
Too much pressure

A song I shouldn't listen to when I'm down, but I often do.
"What can we do with all this Fucking pain
Somebody stop the pain


I finally look to paint a picture of my whole life
And for me to end it would be so nice
Somebody driving on this back street
So I could leave my shit all on the back seat
Cause I don’t love my life no more
So I don’t wanna fight no more
I felt this way before but it died out
So I shot my fucking eye out
Nobody understands me HELP
But I don’t understand my SELF
I always find myself bein trapped
And my drugs that I take so I’m at
That point in my motherfuckin life
Where I don’t wanna live a fuckin lie
I just wanna die

Chorus:

I just wanna die
Die
I just wanna die
Die

Let’s go on a journey
Boldly go where no man has gone before

Verse 2:
Buckle up and lets take a ride
I want you to watch me commit suicide
We’re headed for a place in a dark land
In desperate search of that dark man
But don’t you move keep it right there
I wanna bring you smooth into my nightmare
Don’t be afraid of watching life bleed
Explore my every thought, come out and sightsee
There’s no man alive, that can promise breath
But once we arrive, I can promise death
And now were headed for the crossroads
Gettin deeper in the lost coves
And once we arrive
Close your motherfuckin eyes
Cause I’m about to die

I put the pistol to my temple
See the bullet in the chamber
Cocked it back and out of anger
I pulled the crack, see the shells jump out the side
Now I’m fallin back, I’m seein faces but they’re all in black
I’m hearin sounds but I cant hear
I’m seein pictures in my head but they ain’t clear
My every picture flashed at full speed
And now I’m feelin like I’m loosin my grips on all reality
But my reality’s a battle G
And I was tired of havin talks with myself about mentality
End it all I stand tall apparently I wasn’t patient enough to hear the man
call
So now I leave myself to strive or die, but I’ve lost all my hopes inside,
And I just wanna die"

simple lyrics, great vocals

Postby Kracus » Fri Mar 21, 2003 7:21 am

how can you see into my eyes like open doors
leading you down into my core
where i've become so numb without a soul my spirit sleeping somewhere cold
until you find it there and lead it back home wake me up inside
wake me up inside
call my name and save me from the dark
bid my blood to run
before i come undone
save me from the nothing i've become

now that i know what i'm without
you can't just leave me
breathe into me and make me real
bring me to life

wake me up inside
wake me up inside
call my name and save me from the dark
bid my blood to run
before i come undone
save me from the nothing i've become
bring me to life

frozen inside without your touch without your love darling only you are the life among the dead

all this time i can't believe i couldn't see
kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
i've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
got to open my eyes to everything
without a thought without a voice without a soul
don't let me die here
there must be something more
bring me to life

She'll take the fifth when she's upset
So you know you're really gonna get it
You waste her time you will regret
Cause she won't let it sit, no

She's coming
She's coming pound for pound
Pound for pound
Even though so small
She got a good right hook
When I'm all underground getting beat down
Guess I must have done something wrong

I started playing with her hair
She went and tried to bite the fingers off
I keep on saying it's not fair
But she won't stop 'til she gets hers

I think if we stepped in the ring
By round two I'd be spinning
I don't know how I show my face
Wish I could start from the beginning

She's coming
She's coming pound for pound
Pound for pound
Even though so small
She got a good left jab
When I'm all underground getting beat down
Guess I must have done something wrong
Something wrong
Coming pound for pound
Coming pound for pound for pound
Coming pound for pound
coming pound for pound for pound
Coming pound for pound
Coming pound for pound for pound

She's coming
She's coming in
She's coming pound for pound for pound (repeats)

This time I really botched it up
And she's just waiting to erupt

She's coming
She's coming pound for pound
Pound for pound
Even though so small
She got a good round house
When I'm all underground getting beat down
Guess I must have done something
She's coming pound for pound
Pound for pound
But I'm still crazy for her
When I'm all underground getting beat down
Guess I must have done something wrong

Ari Hest - "Pound for Pound"

Kracus! Dude! That song ROCKS!!! I made an Evangelion music video to it. i think its a good vid, but i dont know how ittl be accepted. I heard "Bring Me To Life" as a song is being overused, much in the same way as all the Linkinball Z shit out there.

I eat too much to die
And not enough to stay alive
I'm sitting in the middle waiting

Days since I last pissed
Cheeks sunken and despaired
So gorgeous sunk to six stone
Lose my only remaining home

See my third rib appear
A week later all my flesh disappears
Stretching taut, cling-film on bone
I'm getting better

Karen says I've reached my target weight
Kate and Emma and Kristin know it's fake
Problem is diet's not a big enough word
I wanna be so skinny that I rot from view

I want to walk in the snow
And not leave a footprint
I want to walk in the snow
And not soil its purity

Stomach collapsed at five
Lift up my skirt my sex is gone
Naked and lovely and 5st. 2
May I bud and never flower

My vision's getting blurred
But I can see my ribs and I feel fine
My hands are trembling stalks
And I can feel my breasts are sinking

Mother tries to choke me with roast beef
And sits savouring her sole ryvitta
That's the way you're built my father said
But I can change, my cocoon shedding

I want to walk in the snow
And not leave a footprint
I want to walk in the snow
And not soil its purity

Kate and Kristin and Kit Kat
All things I like looking at
Too weak to fuss, too weak to die
Choice is skeletal in everybody's life

I choose my choice, I starve to frenzy
Hunger soon passes and sickness soon tires
Legs bend, stockinged I am Twiggy
And I don't mind the horror that surrounds me

Self-worth scatters, self-esteem's a bore
I long since moved to a higher plateau
This disipline's so rare so please applaud
Just look at the fat scum who pamper me so

Yeh 4st. 7, an epilogue of youth
Such beautiful dignity in self-abuse
I've finally come to understand life
Through staring blankly at my navel

"4st. 7lb" by the Manic Street Preachers-my theme song.

"All Apologies"

What else should I be
All apologies
What else should I say
Everyone is gay
What else could I write
I don't have the right
What else should I be
All apologies
In the sun
In the sun I feed as one
In the sun
In the sun
I'm married
buried
I wish I was like you
Easily amused
Find my nest of salt
Everything is my fault
I'll take all the blame
Aqur scafoam shame
Sunburn with freezeburn
Choking on the ashes of her enemy
All in all we all are

"Dumb"

I'm not like them
But I can pretend
The sun is gone
But I have a light
The day is done
But I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb
or maybe just happy
Think I'm just happy
my heart is broke
But I have some glue
help me inhale
And mend it with you
We'll float around
And hang out on clouds
Then we'll come down
And I have a hangover...
Have a hangover
Skin the sun
Fall asleep
Wish away
The soul is cheap
Lesson learned
Wish me luck
Soothe the burn
Wake me up
I'm not like them
But I can pretend
The sun is gone
But I have a light
The day is done
But I'm having fun
