Lyrics Of The Moment

[Prometheon]

I was unable to cope with what you said

"sometimes we need to be cruel to be kind"

child that I was, I could not see the reason

feelings I had were but sham and a lie

 

I have never forgotten your smile

your eyes, are sham and a lie

time went by, many memories died

I'm writing this down to ease my pain

 

You saw us always clearer than me

How we were never meant to be

Love denied, now the friendship would die

Now I have seen the light

These memories make me blind

[Shortcut To Moncton]

Another rider

He was a talker

Talking about tv

Please shut up

This ones a crazer

Daydreaming disaster

The origin of junk food

Rutting through garbage

Tasty but worthless

Dogs eat their own shit

Were doing the cockroach yeah

Doin the cockroach yeah

Doin the cockroach yeah (alright, not bad) (x3)

[Prometheon]

I know it hurts

No one wants to die

Goodbye

goodbye

[AnOceanPearl]

Step one, light me on fire

Step two, walk clean away

I won't burn long but the evidence of your done wrong will be gone in seconds I swear

And if you got time anyway, why not watch me hurt?

And nothing is sweeter than needed revenge

Oh, that's right, you did nothing

And you were the mean one, in fact, you even broke my good tape deck

In fact, I don't want to be friends

[nerd glasses]

I will try not to worry you

I have seen things that you will never see

Leave it to memory me

and dare me to breathe

I want you to remember

[beerman37]

But we'd go dancing and he'd hold me tight

he was air, he was water, he was breath, he was light

And he would hold me there with all his might

And it was bliss or an hour or so

But then they called time to go

And in the morning we were sober

[juanpe]

Apart from the tunes and the singer's voice, these lyrics are also pretty good (maybe it's just that I love this band...):

 

Pride and Fall - Inside

 

the city cast a shadow

from a fundament in grey

social standards race me higher

a serenade of dreams

i try to reach

a second hope seems to exist

 

now i got to live with them forever

this is the sorrow that comfort me

dreams of torture hunt my sleep

i

[S.E. Hardy]

our love is like the border between Greece and Albania

[juanpe]

"Oh my love, it's time

You know how it feels

You read between the lines

And know me better than I do

I'm lost again my friend

You know I'm not a saint

You've known it all this time

Still you've been waiting for me here...

 

Come lie next to me

Know why, you and me are one

Come lie next to me

No lies, you and me are one"

 

(Apoptygma Berzerk, "Kathy's song")

[no yu begin wher i end]

"You've got me on a leash, a damn damn leash."

[juanpe]

"Knocked down

Cried out

Been down just to find out

I'm through

Bleeding for you"

 

(Garbage, "You look so fine")

[middle_class_gangster]

There's a corner of your heart for me.

There's a corner of your heart just for me.

I will pack my bags just to stay in the corner of your heart.

Just to stay in the corner of your heart.

 

There is room beneath your bed for me.

There is room beneath your bed just for me.

I will leave this town just to sleep underneath your bed.

Just to sleep underneath your bed.

 

There's one minute of your day.

There's one minute of your day.

I will leave this man just to occupy one minute of your day.

Just to occupy one minute of your day.

 

Just to sleep underneath your bed.

 

Just to stay in the corner of you heart.

[gwencrist]

we'll stay home

agoraphobe

i never wanna go out there

[Dan #2]

i'd sell out everyone, if i could find such peace

i will be free

 

 

"dying with decent music"

the pAper chAse

god bless your black heart

[Shiri]

"Ooh, she wants it, I got to give it to her"

 

Haha.

[Audio of Being]

well there was a time when you let me know

what's really going on below

but now you never show that to me do you

but remember when i moved in you

and the holy dove was moving too

and every breath we drew was hallelujah

[Kenwell]

And the wars, will be over and done.

Flowers planted in guns, as if the hippies won.

 

And we'll make no Earthly possessions,

See the future in, our little ones.

[AnOceanPearl]

There's one thing I have to say so I'll be brave

You were what I wanted, I gave what I gave

I'm not sorry I met you

I'm not sorry it's over

I'm not sorry there's nothing to save

I'm not sorry there's nothing to save

 

Your Ex-Lover is Dead by Stars

[little miss sunshine]

And even if her plane crashes tonight she'll find some way to disappoint me

By not burning in the wreckage, or drowning at the bottom of the sea.

 

Jude Law and a Semester Abroad

Brand New

[orgasmi]

somehow i got all of apartment story by the national memorized, and it's awesome:

 

hold still for a second while i try and try to pin your flowers on

lalalala

can you carry my drink, i have everything else

i can tie my tie all by myself

i'm getting tied, i'm forgetting why

 

hold ourselves together with our arms around the stereo for hours

lalalala

while it sings to itself or whatever it does

while it sings to itself of it's long lost loves

i'm getting tied, i'm forgetting why

 

tired and wired we ruin too easy

sleep in our holes and wait for winter to leave

but i'll be with you behind the couch when they come on a different day, just like this one

 

we'll stay inside 'till somebody finds us

do whatever the tv tells us

stay inside our rosy minded thoughts, for days

 

so worry not, all things are well

we'll be alright

we have our looks and perfume on

[Audio of Being]

Oh, it gets wicked here

Such an evil time of year

So cold it brings you tears

Come wintertime

I'll come back for you my dear

When it gets wicked here

Come wintertime

 

Wicked come winter

You know it takes a long, long time

To move across this land

The northern lights in the skies at night

The attention they demand

You know it takes a long, long time

To move across this land

The northern lights in the skies at night makin' music with my friends

[Shiri]

If there was a better way to go then it would find me

I can

[The_Rat_Who_Would_be_King]

I realize there's a very similar thread that's been around a lot longer than this, but I like this one better.

 

I was up all night, socializing

Trying to keep the latent depression from crystalizing

Now the sun is lurking just behind the Scarborough horizon

 

And you're not even here

On the coldest night of the year.

 

I took in Yonge Street at a glance

Heard the punkers playing

Watched the bikers dance

Everybody wishing they could go to the south of France

 

And you're not even here

On the coldest night of the year.

 

Hey look at me now

See the shape I'm in

It's taken me so long to catch on to what's going on

Inside this skin

When two lovers really love there's nothing there

But this suddenly compact universe

Skin and breath and hair

 

I watched the all night TV show

In the all night bar

I drove all the people home

I was the one with the car

 

Now I'm sitting here alone and sleepless

and wondering where you are

And wishing you were here

On the coldest night of the year

[julianzz]

take everything you said

harder than we should.

we wanted more than to try to sell you out.

you won.

[Prometheon]

Sometimes when this place gets kind of empty

The sound of their breath fades with the light

I think about the loveless fascination

Under the milky way tonight
