Here's the lyrics to the Black Eyed Peas' Where's the Love song. I think it's highly appropriate for the sentiments most people have on here :). It's a good song to. Post up other cool song lyrics if ya want.

What's wrong with the world mama?
People living like aint got no mamas
I think the whole worlds addicted to the drama
Only attracted to the things that bring you trauma
Overseas yeah we tryin to stop terrorism
But we still got terrorists here livin
In the USA the big CIA the Bloodz and the Crips and the KKK
But if you only have love for your own race
Then you only leave space to discriminate
And to discriminate only generates hate
And if you hatin you're bound to get irate
Yeah madness is what you demonstrate
And that's exactly how anger works and operates
You gotta have love just to set it straight
Take control of your mind and meditate
Let your soul gravitate to the love y'all

People killing people dying
Children hurtin you hear them crying
Can you practice what you preach
Would you turn the other cheek?
Father Father Father help us
Send some guidance from above
Cause people got me got me questioning
Where is the love?(where is the lovex3)(the love2x)

It just ain't the same all ways have changed
New days are strange is the world the insane?
If love and peace so strong
Why are there pieces of love that don't belong
Nations dropping bombs
Chemical gases filling lungs of little ones
With ongoing suffering
As the youth die young
So ask yourself is the loving really strong?
So I can ask myself really what is going wrong
With this world that we living in
People keep on giving in
Makin wrong decisions
Only visions of them livin and
Not respecting each other
Deny thy brother
The wars' going on but the reasons' undercover
The truth is kept secret
Swept under the rug
If you never know truth
Then you never know love
Where's the love y'all?(I don't know)
Where's the truth y'all?(I don't know)
Where's the love y'all?

People killing people dying
Children hurtin you hear them crying
Can practice what you preach
Would you turn the other cheek?
Father father father help us
Send some guidance from above
Cause people got me got me questioning
Where is the love?(where is the lovex3)(the lovex2)

I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder
As I'm getting older y'all people get colder
Most of us only care about money makin
Selfishness got us followin the wrong direction
Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria
Infecting their young minds faster than bacteria
Kids wanna act like what the see in the cinema
Whatever happened to the values of humanity
Whatever happened to the fairness and equality
Instead of spreading love, we're spreading anomosity
Lack of understanding, leading us away from unity
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feeling under
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feeling down
It's no wonder why sometimes I'm feeling under
I gotta keep my faith alive, until love is found

People killing people dying
Children hurtin you hear them crying
Can you practice what you preach
Would you turn the other cheek?
Father Father Father help us
Send some guidance from above
Cause people got me got me questioning
Where is the love?(fade)
 
Another good song

Cats in the Cradle:
artist: Harry Chapin

A child arrived just the other day,
Came to the world in the usual way,
But there were planes to catch and bills to pay,
He learned to walk while I was away.
He was talking before I knew it, and as he grew
He said, "I'm going to be like you, Dad,
You know I'm going to be like you."


And the cat in the cradle and the silver spoon,
Little Boy Blue and the Man in the Moon,
"When can we play, Dad?" "I don't know when,
We'll get together then.
You know we'll have a good time then."

My son turned ten just the other day,
Said "Thanks for the ball, now c'mon let's play.
Will you teach me to throw?" I said, "Not today,
I've got a lot to do." He said, "That's OK."
And he walked away and he smiled and he said
"You know I'm going to be like you, Dad,
You know I'm going to be like you."

And the cat in the cradle and the silver spoon,
Little Boy Blue and the Man in the Moon,
"When can we play, Dad?" "I don't know when,
We'll get together then.
You know we'll have a good time then."
He came from college just the other day,
So much like a man, I just had to say,
"I'm proud of you, won't you sit for a while?"
He shook his head and said with a smile,
"What I'm feeling like, Dad, is to borrow the car keys
See you later, can I have them please?"

And the cat in the cradle and a silver spoon,
Little Boy Blue and the Man in the Moon,
"When you coming home, son?" "I don't know when,
But we'll get together then.
You know we'll have a good time then."

I've long since retired and my son's moved away,
I called him up just the other day.
"I'd like to see you, if you don't mind."
He said, "I'd love to, Dad, if I could find the time.
You see, my new job's a hassle and the kids have the flu,
But it's sure nice talking you, Dad.
It's been real nice talking to you."

And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me,
He'd grown up just like me.
My boy was just like me.

And the cat in the cradle and a silver spoon,
Little Boy Blue and the Man in the Moon,
"When you coming home, son?" "I don't know when,
But we'll get together then.
You know we'll have a good time then."
And the cat in the cradle and a silver spoon,
Little Boy Blue and the Man in the Moon,
"When you coming home, son?" "I don't know when,
But we'll get together then.
You know we'll have a good time then."

I think this song can teach a lot to all those career-focused parents. It'd be nice to have more music like this out again.
 
Welcome to my life
Simple plan
(this has been out recently but I've had it for months and sometimes it jsut seems approiate)

Do you ever feel like breaking down?
Do you ever feel out of place?
Like somehow you just don't belong
And no one understands you


Do you ever wanna run away?
Do you lock yourself in your room?
With the radio on turned up so loud
And no one hears you screaming

No you don't know what it's like
When nothing feels alright
You don't know what it's like
To be like me...

To be hurt, to feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life

Do you wanna be somebody else?
Are you sick of feeling so left out?
Are you desperate to find something more
Before your life is over?

Are you stuck inside a world you hate?
Are you sick of everyone around?
With the big fake smiles and stupid lies
While deep inside your bleeding

No you don't know what it's like
When nothing feels alright
You don't know what it's like
To be like me...

To be hurt, to feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life

No one ever lied straight to your face
No one ever stabbed you in the back
You might think I'm happy
But I'm not gonna be ok
Everybody always gave you what you wanted
You never had to work
It was always there
You don't know what it's like
What it's like To be hurt, to feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like

To be hurt, to feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life
Welcome to my life
Welcome to my life


Sometimes it does seem like that's my life it's weird but :):eusa_shif
 
WHATSERNAME
By Green Day


Thought i ran into you down on the street
then it turned out to only be a dream
i made a point to burn all of the photographs
she went away and then i took a different apath
I can remember the face but i can't recall the name
now i wonder how whatsername has been
seems that she dissappeared without a trace
did she marry old whats' his face
i made a point to burn all of the photographs
she went away and then i took a different path
i remember the face but i can't recall the name
now i wonder how whatsername has been
remember, whatever
it seems like forever ago
remember, whatever
it seems like forever ago
the regrets are useless in my mind
she's in my head
i must confess the regrets are useless in my mind
she's in my head
from so long ago and in the darkest night
if my memory serves me right
i'll never turn back time
forgetting you but not the time



just seems to fit when i end up thinkin about stuff from the past. i'll post other songs later
 
Have you ever had a romantic evening that you never wanted to end? I have been fortune enough to have had a few, and this song brings back such memories. The lyrics and the music were so moving, I dedicated it to my wife, and danced with her at our wedding reception while it played.

WHY CAN’T THIS NIGHT GO ON FOREVER
by Journey

 Lost in twilight, the memories
Precious moments, you and me
We’ve been old friends, all through the years
Picture postcards, sharing tears

What’s in our hearts, there’s never time, to say
Need you tonight, lover don’t fade away
I’ve seen your city lights
As I walk away
Why can’t this night...go on forever

Without love, we won’t survive
Run together, we rule the night
Tell me secrets, oh that make you cry
Where’s the laughter, we gotta try

What’s in our hearts, there’s never time to say
Need you tonight, lover don’t fade away
Like a photograph
That time won’t erase
Why can’t this night...go on forever
Go on forever and ever...ever and ever
 
Hey pink - have you ever heard of Harry Chapin? "Cat's in the Cradle" is HIS song - I didn't know it was covered. I cracked up when you listed Ugly Kidd Joe - I must be getting old!
 
Darn it... it seems like that song has been covered more times than I can count... will change. Thanks MrsD!!! :D
 
Another GREEN DAY
Holiday

Hear the sound of the falling rain
Coming down like an Armageddon flame (Hey!)
The shame
The ones who died without a name

Hear the dogs howling out of key
To a hymn called "Faith and Misery" (Hey!)
And bleed, the company lost the war today

I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
On holiday

Hear the drum pounding out of time
Another protestor has crossed the line (Hey!)
To find, the money's on the other side

Can I get another Amen? (Amen!)
There's a flag wrapped around the score of men (Hey!)
A gag, A plastic bag on a monument

I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
On holiday

"The representative from California has the floor"

Sieg Heil to the president gasman
Bombs away is your punishment
Pulverize the Eiffel towers
Who criticize your government
Bang bang goes the broken glass man
Kill all the ****s that don't agree
Trials by fire, setting fire
Is not a way that's meant for me
Just cause, just cause, because we're outlaws yeah!

I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives

This is our lives on holiday
 
Title: Superstar
Artist: Tegan and Sara

dignified in what she does when she sings
the smile that she brings to all of you unaware
of what's to come i said tell me what's to come
green is the color of my envy
it's the color of fame
so i'm gonna write it down to scream it out
& i'm never gonna be the same again
fear is the color you've all exposed
now i gotta get up here
& prove the importance
of my clothes of my pose i suppose again
hard core superstar by far you're the ultimate star
do you wanna be a superstar
well that's what you are
you're gonna be a star
do you wanna be a superstar?
clever in what she does competing for the attention
of those people that you know
my whole life revolves around
your absence until i can't remember
what i was or what i am
who i know or what i know or where i go
every moment was that moment
every day was that day
every second was that second
& i've lost myself again
soon my face will be on every magazine
& then my voice
will be on every frequency
take my heart while you're at it why don't you
sign me up to sell me out
i am my angel 'til death i do i saw my first angel
& it was you


If you haven't heard of Tegan and Sara yet... which probably is everyone here because they are a small Canadian band, they are awesome. There earlier stuff is a little folky, but most of it is upbeat and wicked. I recomend 'Living Room' and 'You wouldn't like me if you met me'. Good sounds.
 
I know this is pretty depressing. But I really like the song and the band so if you get a chance listen to them. Well some of its quite heavy metal but stuff like this is quite coolies :)

Demon Hunter
Heartstrings come undone

It's buried deep within the past ,
I hope it doesn't last

It's something i already chased,
I already chased

I try to give it all away,
but it's never gonna fade

It's something i don't wanna face,
i don't wanna face
I know you feel it's all the same,
but I promise that i'll change

It's something i already chased,
I already chased

You know i'm trying to believe that you're never gonna leave
It's something i don't wanna face,
I don't wanna face

There's nothing left! The fear is gone
Oh, my heartstrings come undone
I will wait for you, pray for you
Before i make my final run
I will stay with you, decay with you

I know i'm not the perfect one,
the pain has just begun
It's something i already chased,
I already chased

You bring me to a better path,
it's everything i asked

It's something i don't wanna face,
I don't wanna face

There's nothing left! The fear is gone
There's nothing left! The fear is gone
Oh, my heartstrings come undone
I will wait for you, pray for you
Before i make my final run
I will stay with you, decay with you
 
Interesting, a little morbid sounding though. Am wondering what the music sounds like to it.
 
I would send it to you but i dont know how to from email. LoL cant you just search for it??
 
lmao, yes I can. And I will when I am home. Stupid company puters have blocks on "streaming media" as they call it.
 
simply devine

through a long and sleepless night
i thought upon the jury's plight
if what is wrong can feel so right
then life's no longer black and white
its four o clock and all's not well
in my private circle of hell
i contemplate my naval hair
and slowly slide into despair
this rut has fast become a trench
the smell has turned into the stench
of rotton dreams and failed ideals
the past is snapping at my heels
oh **** it boy the pipes are blocked
with bedtime blues and future shocks
i know the best is yet to come
but does it always take this long

you can put on the perfume
even wear the dress sometimes
but you'll always be the bridegroom
and never the bride

you deserve to be horsewhipped
but i've no horse, that joked so ****
and whips would only make it worse
don't tempt the lowly and perverse
the casualties of casual sex
the child of three with x ray specs
the conman low in self esteem
the casanove in your dream
i'll scream and scream and scream until
i make myself critically ill
in hospital in case your there
in uniform, intensive care
i know you'll be the death of me
but what a good end that would be
i'd rather die than be deprived
of wonderbra's and thunderthighs

you can put on the perfume
even wear the dress sometimes
but you'll alawys be the bridegroom
and never the bride

bored of normailty
why not go daft
its easy to do if you try
slide right back down that self confident path
you've just so labouriosly climbed
pickle your liver and adle your brain
live the bohemian life
thats right
and die young and penniless somewhere in spain
then again you could try just to live your life in a way that you find most amusing

i dont really care
i dont really care
no i dont really care

you can put on the perfume
even wear a dress sometimes
but you will always be the bridegroom
and you will never be the bride

The son never shines on closed doors
By: Flogging Molly

I saw her there from afar
Her hair grey charcoal
Takes a drag from her tar
I kissed her a smile
But her blood red shot eye
Said the son never shines on closed doors

It's been eight long years since I saw
The woman who's labored
Since the day I was born
These wrinkles now face
To that cold dark damp place
Where the son never shines on closed doors

She said the son never shines on closed doors
I open to find only hurricanes blow
Take me away back to the green fields of May
Because the son never shines on closed doors

Death comes like a theif in the night
To steal while you sleep
The soul's flickering licght
Well maybe it's then
She said, I'll see you again
Because the son never shines on closed doors

She said the son never shines on closed doors
I open to find only hurricanes blow
Take me away back to the green fields of May
Because the son never shines on closed doors

And we all go the same way home
Yeah we all go the same way home
 
Tool

[Jimmy]
What was it like to see
the face of your own stability
suddenly look away
leaving you with the dead and hopeless?
Eleven and she was gone.
Eleven is when we waved good-bye.
Eleven is standing still,
waiting for me to free him by
coming hooooooooome.
Moving me with a sound.
Opening me within a gesture.
Drawing me down and in,
showing me where it all began,
Eleven.

It took so long to realize
that you are the voice that's been calling me back hoooooooome.
Under a dead Ohio sky,
Eleven has been and will be waiting
defending his light and wondering...
where the hell have I been?
Sleeping, lost, and numb.
I'm..so glad that I have found you.
I am wide awake and heading,
home.
 
Collective Soul "December" My favorite song

Why drink the water
from my hand?
Contagious as you think I am
Just tilt my sun towards
your domain.
Your cup runneth over again.

Don't scream about
Don't think aloud
Turn your head now baby
Just spit me out
Don't worry about
Don't speak of doubt
Turn your head now baby
Just spit me out

Why follow me to higher ground?
Lost as you swear I am.
Don't throw away your basic needs,
Ambiance and vanity.

December promise you gave unto me
December whispers of treachery
December clouds are now covering me
December songs no longer I sing
 
This song is a close second place Its "In the Pines" By The one and only Leadbelly


My girl, my girl, don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night (come on and tell me baby)

In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through

My girl, my girl, where will you go
I'm going where the cold wind blows (wheres that at baby)

In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through

My girl, my girl, don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night (come on and tell me something about it)

In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through (shiver for me now)

Her husband, was a hard working man
Just a mile and a half from here
His head was found in a driving wheel
But his body never was found

My girl, my girl, don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night

In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through
