Cold September morn, I was reborn
The sundays crashed through my front door
From my soul, I'm growing old
I couldn't ask for anymore
I ask you If I could wish upon your kisses


from "Breakfast" by My Vitriol

I can't get these two songs from my head:

"Sound of Solitude" from Myslovitz (a Polish band), a wonderfully beautiful song

And even left alone one day
Ain't gonna change, it's not my world
Before me there's a road I know
The one I chose myself to go

Yeah, perfect forever, always clever
Should I be and I should feel
Super cool but then I am a fool
But then it's not me

And even left alone one day
Ain't gonna change, it's not my world
Before me there's a road I know
The one I chose myself to go

See, I like the evenings
Like to get hidden for quite some time
And yet, I like against my nature with ostentation
To stay alone, climb to a tree top
And keep looking skyward
No sensation, but I know that right here
For another time
Can't be who I wanna be

And even left alone one day
Ain't gonna change, it's not my world
Before me there's a road I know
The one I chose myself to go

Nights, some nights I awake to
Go out though I hate it
Look at this chemical world
Smelling like grayness, like paper love sadness
With you and me and someone else
Don't know who, wants to be
For several years
With obsession and with ostentation
Left alone a while I've seen that guy

And even left alone one day
Ain't gonna change, it's not my world
Before me there's a road I know
The one I chose myself to go


And this one... "Funeral Song" from The Rasmus (a Finnish band), it has a lovely tune and singer's voice interesting too

I dumped you again
I don't understand
It's happened before
can't take it no more

These foolish game
Always in loving confusion
I'll take you back
Just to leave you once again

I died in my dreams
What's that supposed to mean?
Got lost in the fire
I died in my dreams
reaching out for your hand
My fatal desire

I've failed you again
'cause I let you stay
I used to pretend
that I felt ok

Just one big lie
Such a perfect illusion
I made you mine
Just to hurt you once again

I died in my dreams...

Evanescence :: Bring Me To Life :::

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...

No one knows what it's like
To be mistreated

Oh, that's a lovely song, Siana, I love it too! Rather untypical of Limp Bizkit...

YEah, I love that song too. And how come Halle Berry is in that video, if that's her anyway.
Back to the song, I'm not a LB fan but this song really is wonderful, unexpected, deep, great and Fred looks good in that video too.

It's because this song is from a soundtrack to a movie with her. I guess it's called 'Gotika', you can see it written on a paper when (now I'm not sure I remember it right) the singer or she drops it.

Schule, Schule, Schule Agrah
Time can only heal my woe
since the love of my heart must go
Johnny's Gone
Johnny's Gone
Johnny's gone for a soldier.

such a sad song. What really makes it pretty is the mournful melody that clashes beautifully with the circling melodies around it. I am not sure, but I think it is an Irish folk song. My family sings it, but since we are from many nationalities it could be from anywhere...but I am pretty sure "Schule Agrah" means come with me my love in gaelic or something.

Gary Jules-Mad World

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places
Worn out faces
Bright and early for the daily races
Going no where
Going no where
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression
No expression
Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow
No tomorrow
No tomorrow
And I find I kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I’m dying
Are the best I’ve ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles its a very very
Mad world

I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Where the best I've ever had...

Just heard it on TV...it's soooooo lovely!

The Despair Factor
-By AFI
Along the path where the stream is talking,
I breathe the mist and continue walking.
The wood it whispers in a language of it's own.
As a sigh escaped my lips,
I feel the light caress of fingertips that,
steal away the breath and leave me on my own.

Waiting by the stairs. (Waiting, I despair)
Waiting, I despair. (Waiting by the stairs)

My whole life is a dark room.
One, big, dark room.

Do I hear the hollow sound,
Footsteps resounding on this frozen ground,
Or the familiar disappointment of the echoes of my own?

Waiting by the stairs. (Waiting i despair)
Waiting, I despair. (Waiting by the stairs)

Somehow I ended up here in between,
Where there is always the comfort,
Of knowing I'll never be seen.
When I fall
When I fall
I wait for just one touch,
And I fall

Weightless,
Endless,
Faithless, I'll adore you.
A single touch, before I fade. Painless let me pass through.


I also like this one from the TTT soundtrack; these lyrics are in the booklet, but only a little part of it is in a song:
The Missing
-Composed by Howard Shore
She never watched
the morning rising,
Too busy with the
days first chores
But oft she would watch
the sun's fading
As the cold of night crept
across the moors
And in that moment
She felt the loss
Of everything that
Had been missed,
So used to feeling
the spirit sink
She had not felt
her own heart's wish.

Can I put a song I have in my head that I enjoy singing to my boyfriend? :oops: :razz: :lol:

God Only Knows by The Beach Boys

I may not always love you
But long as there are stars above you
You never need to doubt it
I'll make you so sure about it

God only knows what i'd be without you

If you should ever leave me
Though life would still go on believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me

God only knows what i'd be without you

God only knows what i'd be without you

If you should ever leave me
Well life would still go on believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me

God only knows what i'd be without you


It may be sappy, but well...I like the tune and it always manages to get a smile! :oops: :grin: :lol:

It may freak you out, I can see the real you
See under these lies, I know you will come through, come through
I’ve known you too long, to hear all that you say
You will not succeed, in pushing me away, away
Away in your minds eye, you’re dancing to the night
Whatever they say, don’t walk towards the light no


Oh Not giving up on this love that cannot fly
Oh , its like trying to stop rain by staying dry
Stop burying your head in the sand
When you feel alone, just reach out your hand
And I’ll be there

You are colour-blind, if you cannot see
Everything you are and all you mean to me, to me
Stop shutting me out, in me you can confide
The grass is always green, on the other side, other side, other side
In your minds eye……

I’m gonna let you down
Its your choice if you swim or drown
I’ve carried you to far
Is it possible to change your stars?

Soundless as the rainbow stains the sky
Savage as the tears while I lie
Quiet as the lightning in the storm
And cold as a soul already torn

Its time to say goodbye
Don’t look puzzled and don’t you dare ask why
Now my smile is bruised
You never call me I can’t help feeling used

Do you realise how much you’re hurting me
Not knowing how you are or even how you seem
I still hear about all the things you do
You know I’d rather hear about them from you



Your eyes are meant to be a window to your soul
Why can’t I see through?
What’s going on inside? Where did you sleep last night?
Why can’t I see through?
