JiMmIyZ Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I was wondering if we can share the lyrics (or part of) that really is beautiful, touching or meaningful.. u know, those kinda lyrics that really touches your heart. If its not too personal, you can also tell us why this song touches you very much. We really want to know, don't we ... Me, You, My Medication - Boys like girls Found my way to the highway I don't wanna tell you the state Im in I've had too much to smoke too much to drink where have I been It feels like the stars are getting closer and the sky is closing in And I don't know where to begin We're all looking for something To take away the pain Me and you and my medication (Making the best of it) Love is just a chemical creation (Will it be permanent?) Synthetic sensation Me you and my medication The way back to the right track maybe you can help me find the door Is it too much to ask, too much too fast, too much to ignore It feels like your bodys getting closer but you seem so far away Medicine make it ok We're all looking for someone To take away the pain Me and you and my medication (Making the best of it) Love is just a chemical creation (Will it be permanent?) Synthetic sensation Me you and my medication Can you feel it? Do you feel it? Coming down You gotta get up Can you get up Off the ground Can you hear it? Can you hear me screaming? Can you feel it? Do you feel it? Coming down You gotta get up Can you get up Off the ground I wanna hear it Wanna hear you breathing Were all addicted to something That takes away the pain Me and you and my medication (Making the best of it) Love is just a chemical creation (Will it be permanent?) Synthetic sensation Me you and my medication Important to me because when i got dumped by one of my ex GFs i was looking to anything to take away the pain, and i still am. Nothing works so far.

CAgirl Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 "The Weakness In Me" Joan Armatrading I'm not the sort of person who falls in and quickly out of love But to you, I give my affection, right from the start. I have a lover who loves me - how could I break such a heart? Yet still you get my attention. Why do you come here, when you know I've got troubles enough? Why do you call me, when you know I can't answer the phone? And make me lie when I don't want to, And make someone else some kind of an unknowing fool? Make me stay when I should not? If you're so strong then resolve the weakness in me. Why do you come here, and pretend to be just passing by? I need to see you - I need to hold you - tightly. Feeling guilty, And I'm worried, and I'm waking from a tormented sleep 'Cause this old love, you know it has me bound, But this new love cuts so deep. If I choose now, I'm bound to lose out; One of you is gonna have to fall... I need you, baby. Why do you come here, when you know I've got troubles enough? Why do you call me, when you know I can't answer the phone? And make me lie when I don't want to, And make someone else some kind of an unknowing fool? Make me stay when I should not? If you're so strong then resolve the weakness in me. Why do you come here, and pretend to be just passing by? I need to see you - I need to hold you - tightly. It's a beautiful song. Listen you'll understand. Link to comment
timetogrow Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Hey guy, how about this lyric? i've been listening to this song almost everyday! Hey lady, you, lady, cursin' at your life You're a discontented mother and a rich inventive wife I've no doubt you dream about the things you'll never do But I wish someone had a talked to me like I wanna talk to you Ooh I've been to Georgia and California, oh, anywhere I could run Took the hand of a preacherman and we made love in the sun But I ran out of places and friendly faces because I had to be free Charlene I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me Please lady, please, lady, don't just walk away 'Cause I have this need to tell you why I'm all alone today I can see so much of me still living in your eyes Won't you share a part of a weary heart that has lived a million lies Oh I've been to Nice and the isle of Greece While I sipped champagne on a yacht I moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo and showed 'em what I've got I've been undressed by kings and I've seen some things That a woman ain't s'posed to see I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me people and places as we'd like them to be. But you know what truth is? It's that little baby you're holding, and it's that man you fought with this morning, the same one you're going to make love with tonight. That's truth, that's love Sometimes I've been to cryin' for unborn children That might have made me complete But I, I took the sweet life and never knew I'd be bitter from the sweet I spent my life exploring the subtle whoring that cost too much to be free Hey lady, I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me I've been to paradise - never been to me (I've been to Georgia and California, and anywhere I could run) I've been to paradise - never been to me (I've been to Nice and the isle of Greece While I sipped champagne on a yacht) I've been to paradise - never been to me (I've been to cryin' for unborn children...)

tina-rocks Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I set out on a narrow way, many years ago Hoping I would find true love, along the broken road But I got lost a time or two, wiped my brow and kept pushing through I couldn't see how every sign, pointed straight to you Every long lost dream, led me to where you are Others who broke my heart, they were like northern stars Pointing me on my way, into your loving arms This much I know is true That God blessed the broken road That led me straight to you Yes He did I think about the years I spent, just passin' through I'd like to have the time I lost, and give it back to you But you just smile and take my hand, you've been there you understand It's all part of a grander plan, that is comin' true Every long lost dream, led me to where you are Others who broke my heart, they were like northern stars Pointing me on my way, into your loving arms This much I know is true That God blessed the broken road That led me straight to you Yeah Now I'm just rollin' home into my lovers arms This much I know is true That God blessed the broken road That led me straight to you That God blessed the broken road That led me straight to you Link to comment
DropToZero Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Changes - 2pac Come on come on I see no changes. Wake up in the morning and I ask myself, "Is life worth living? Should I blast myself?" I'm tired of bein' poor and even worse I'm black. My stomach hurts, so I'm lookin' for a purse to snatch. Cops give a damn about a negro? Pull the trigger, kill a * * * * * , he's a hero. Give the crack to the kids who the hell cares? One less hungry mouth on the welfare. First ship 'em dope & let 'em deal the brothers. Give 'em guns, step back, and watch 'em kill each other. "It's time to fight back", that's what Huey said. 2 shots in the dark now Huey's dead. I got love for my brother, but we can never go nowhere unless we share with each other. We gotta start makin' changes. Learn to see me as a brother 'stead of 2 distant strangers. And that's how it's supposed to be. How can the Devil take a brother if he's close to me? I'd love to go back to when we played as kids, but things change, and that's the way it is. [bridge w/ changing ad libs] (Come on, come on) That's just the way it is. Things'll never be the same. That's just the way it is. aww yeah... [Repeat] I see no changes. All I see is racist faces. Misplaced hate makes disgrace for races we under. I wonder what it takes to make this one better place... let's erase the wasted. Take the evil out the people, they'll be acting right. 'Cause mo' black than white is smokin' crack tonight. And only time we chill is when we kill each other. It takes skill to be real, time to heal each other. And although it seems heaven sent, we ain't ready to see a black President, uhh. It ain't a secret don't conceal the fact... the penitentiary's packed, and it's filled with blacks. But some things will never change. Try to show another way, but they stayin' in the dope game. Now tell me what's a mother to do? Bein' real don't appeal to the brother in you. You gotta operate the easy way. "I made a G today" But you made it in a sleazy way. Sellin' crack to the kids. "I gotta get paid," Well hey, well that's the way it is. [bridge] [Talking We gotta make a change... It's time for us as a people to start makin' some changes. Let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live and let's change the way we treat each other. You see the old way wasn't working so it's on us to do what we gotta do, to survive. And still I see no changes. Can't a brother get a little peace? There's war on the streets & the war in the Middle East. Instead of war on poverty, they got a war on drugs so the police can bother me. And I ain't never did a crime I ain't have to do. But now I'm back with the facts givin' 'em back to you. Don't let 'em jack you up, back you up, crack you up and pimp smack you up. You gotta learn to hold ya own. They get jealous when they see ya with ya mobile phone. But tell the cops they can't touch this. I don't trust this, when they try to rush I bust this. That's the sound of my tune. You say it ain't cool, but mama didn't raise no fool. And as long as I stay black, I gotta stay strapped & I never get to lay back. 'Cause I always got to worry 'bout the pay backs. Some buck that I roughed up way back... comin' back after all these years. Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat. That's the way it is. uhh [bridge 'til fade] Some things never change Link to comment
djdemarco Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Manchild and every time you crave for me... i'm here and anything you hunger for... i'll share and i will be quietly standing by while slowly i am dying inside hold me in your arms and let me be the one who can feel like i am a child in love every time i talk to you... you're down and every time you need a laugh... i'm around and every time you forget i'm here... i'm not it isn't really me that you forgot hold me in your arms and let me be the one who can feel like i am a child in love whisper now and tell me how you'll watch me and tell me somehow i'm gonna be alright This hopefully speaks for itself. Reading the words doesn't do the music justice (the audio track includes heart-gripping sfx of a girl's despondent messages left on an answering machine), but still the lyrics alone should give an idea as to why I would find this song so powerful and haunting.

hey jo Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Hold up, hold on Don't be scared You'll never change what's been and gone May your smile shine on Don't be scared Your destiny may keep you warm Cos all of the stars are fading away Just try not to worry You'll see them some day Take what you need and be on your way And stop crying your heart out Get up, come on Why're you scared? You'll never change what's been and gone We're all of us stars, we're fading away Just try not to worry you'll see us some day Just take what you need and be on your way And stop crying your heart out Link to comment
woahisme13 Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Here I lay Still and breathless Just like always Still I want some more Mirrors sideways Who cares what's behind Just like always I'm still your passenger Chrome buttons, buckles, and leather surfaces These and other lucky witnesses Now to calm me take me round again don't pull over this time won't you please drive faster roll the windows down this cool night air is curious let the whole world look in who cares who see's what tonight roll these misty windows down to catch my breath and then go and go and go just drive me home and back again Drop these down and put them on me nice cool seats there to cushion your knees now to calm me take me to the edge don't pull over this time won't you please drive faster \ rollthe windows down this cool night air is curious let the whole world look in who care's who see's anything drop these misty windows down to catch my breath again I'm still your passenger Link to comment
Lights Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I posted a link to this song on youtube, on the listen to what others like thread. It just really gets inside. It's one of those songs I listen to when I'm stressed and need to sing really loud and let it all out. lol Gets me all emotional but I need that sometimes. I share the burdens, carried on the heart of one in need... knowing, I'm weighed down as well And I don't question my direction, but intentions for this saving Slowly losing this heart And now what have I done? My reach, falling short just when you needed me And I won't bring myself to care Forgive me, I rely on my own knowing And we see where it's taking me I share the burdens, carried on the heart of one in need... knowing, I'm weighed down as well And I don't question my direction, but intentions for this saving Slowly losing this heart Now what have I done My reach, falling short just when you needed me And I won't bring myself to care Forgive me I rely on my own knowing And we see... That this bridge, is burning and I don't wish to smother it, but get warm This bridge, is burning and I don't wish to smother it, but get warm And now what have I done My reach, falling short just when you needed me And I won't bring myself to care Forgive me, I rely on my own knowing And we see Lord what have I done, my reach ...obtaining only that which could end me So don't be caught in crossfire Forgive me I rely on my own knowing And we see where it's taking me Link to comment
christianna Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 The lyrics to the Cure's Lovesong. I really like them- don't have them in front of me to post but most people would know them. The parts that I like the most are '' No matter how faraway, no matter what words I say, I will always love you'' and '' Whenever I'm alone with you make make me feel that I am free again, whenever I'm alone with you you make me feel like I'm whole again''- etc (may be misquoting here). I apply the song to my female best friend because she is literally miles away. It is more of a love than a friendship song, but we have a relationship like family, very very close. Link to comment
