Post the lyrics of a song that reflects your feelings at this moment.

[catbert836]

I've often foubd that it's theraputic to analyze your feelings through the medium of music.

Here's mine:

"Give Me Novocaine" by Green Day

Take away the sensation inside
Bittersweet migraine in my head
Its like a throbbing toothache of the mind
I can't take this feeling anymore

Drain the pressure from the swelling,
This sensation's overwhelming,
Give me a long kiss goodnight and everything will be alright
Tell me that I won't feel a thing
So give me Novacaine

Out of body and out of mind
Kiss the demons out of my dreams
I get the funny feeling that it's alright
Jimmy says it's better than here,
I'll tell you why

Drain the pressure from the swelling,
This sensation's overwhelming,
Give me a long kiss goodnight and everything will be alright,
Tell me that I won't feel a thing,
So give me Novacaine

Oh Novacaine!

Drain the pressure from the swelling,
The sensations overwhelming
Give me a long kiss goodnight and everything will be alright,
Tell me, Jimmy, I won't feel a thing,
So give me Novacaine

1. its a mad world...

I liked michael andrews version better...


TEARS FOR FEARS LYRICS

"Mad World"

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
And their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
And I find it 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
'Cos I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very
Mad World
Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me

[LadyoftheRabbits]

3. Great song n/t

[Strawman]

2. The Death Of Ferdinand De Saussure - Magnetic Fields

I met Ferdinand Se Saussure
on a night like this
on love
he said
"I'm not so sure I know what it is
no understanding
no closure
it is a nemesis
you can't use a bulldozer
to study orchids"
he says so

we don't know anything
you don't know anything
I don't know anything
about love

we are nothing whoaa
you are nothing
I am nothing
without love

I'm just a great composer
and not a violent man
but I lost my composure
and shot Ferdinand

crying it's well and kosher
to say you don't understand
but this is for holland dozier
holland
his last words were

we don't know anything
you don't anything
I don't know anything
about love

we are nothing
you are nothing
am nothing
without love

his fading words were...

[Ptah]

4. I can do that.

Youve been too gone, too long,
Its too late to come back now
Its been so long since you walked out my door
Now youre just an old song nobody sings anymore
I gotta a new love and shes the true love
But darlin how could you have known?
Cause youve been too gone, for too long
Now its too late to come back home

Youve been a long way, goin the wrong way
Dont even set your suitcase down
You wanted to roam, now youre paying the bills
Youre an old rollin stone who ran over the hills
I had a good cry when you said goodbye
I didnt wanna let you go
But youve been too gone for too long
Now its too late to come back home

I had a good cry when you said goodbye
I didnt wanna let you go
But youve been too gone for too long
So why dont you just stay gone?
Youve been too gone for too long
Now its too late to come back home

[Madrone]

5. out of habit

the butter melts out of habit
the toast isn't even warm
the waitress and the man in the plaid shirt
play out a scene they've played
so many times before
i am watching the sun stumble home in the morning
from a bar on the east side of town
and the coffee is just water dressed in brown
beautiful but boring
he visited me yesterday
he noticed my fingers
and asked me if i would play
i didn't really care a lot
but i couldn't think of a reason why not
i said if you don't come any closer i don't mind if you stay
my thighs have been involved in many accidents
and now i can't get insured
and i don't need to be lured by you
my cunt is built like a wound that won't heal
and now you don't have to ask
because you know how i feel
you know how i feel

art is why i get up in the morning
but my definition ends there
and it doesn't seem fair
that i'm living for something i can't even define
there you are right there
in the meantime

i don't want to play for you anymore
show me what you can do
tell me what are you here for
i want my old friends
i want my old face
i want my old mind
fuck this time and place

the butter melts out of habit

6. It's been a very rage-inducing day.

Galloglass, "Eye To Eye"

The dragon flies on his mighty wings
Towards the walls of the dark fortress
Bursting out in rage, cleansing fire rains
When the towers fall, nothing will remain

We will meet, eye to eye
He will pay, eye for an eye
I'll enjoy his last cry
We will meet, eye to eye

So bittersweet, the taste of revenge
Legions of hate, decamp in fear
No chance to flee, he hounds them to death
Where is the one he's seeking for?

We will meet, eye to eye
He will pay, eye for an eye
I'll enjoy his last cry
We will meet, eye to eye

Close to the end, nearly all slain
Still haven't found the king of the dark
Is he alive, or already gone
All lies in debris, he must be dead

Where is he?, eye to eye
No revenge?, eye for an eye
Have I heard his last cry?
Where is he, has he died?

[johnnie]

7. .

I'm so tired, I haven't slept a wink
I'm so tired, my mind is on the blink
I wonder should I get up and fix myself a drink
No,no,no.

I'm so tired I don't know what to do
I'm so tired my mind is set on you
I wonder should I call you but I know what you'd do

You'd say I'm putting you on
But it's no joke, it's doing me harm
You know I can't sleep, I can't stop my brain
You know it's three weeks, I'm going insane
You know I'd give you everything I've got
for a little peace of mind

I'm so tired, I'm feeling so upset
Although I'm so tired I'll have another cigarette
And curse Sir Walter Raleigh
He was such a stupid get.

[Haole Girl]

8. Old song...listening to it on cable right now...

Self Control
Laura Branigan

Oh, the night is my world
City light painted girl
In the day nothing matters
It's the night time that flatters
In the night, no control
Through the wall something's breaking
Wearing white as you're walkin'
Down the street of my soul

You take my self, you take my self control
You got me livin' only for the night
Before the morning comes, the story's told
You take my self, you take my self control

Another night, another day goes by
I never stop myself to wonder why
You help me to forget to play my role
You take my self, you take my self control

I, I live among the creatures of the night
I haven't got the will to try and fight
Against a new tomorrow, so I guess I'll just believe it
That tomorrow never comes

A safe night, I'm living in the forest of my dream
I know the night is not as it would seem
I must believe in something, so I'll make myself
believe it
That this night will never go

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Oh, the night is my world
City light painted girl
In the day nothing matters
It's the night time that flatters

I, I live among the creatures of the night
I haven't got the will to try and fight
Against a new tomorrow, so I guess I'll just believe
it
That tomorrow never knows

A safe night, I'm living in the forest of a dream
I know the night is not as it would seem
I must believe in something, so I'll make myself
believe it
That this night will never go

9. "Company" by Rickie Lee Jones

I'll remember you too clearly
But I'll survive another day
Conversations to share
When there's no one there
I'll imagine what you'd say

I'll see you in another life now, baby
I'll free you in my dreams
But when I reach across the galaxy
I will miss your company

Company
I'll be looking for company
Look and listen
Through the years
Someday you may hear me
Still crying for company

So now you're going off to live your life
You say we'll meet each other now and then
But we'll never be the same
And I know I'll never have this chance again
No, not like you

So, I'll see you in another life now baby,
I'll free you in my dreams
But when I reach across the galaxy
I will miss your company

Company
I'll be looking for company
Look and listen
Through the years
Someday you may hear me
Still crying for company

[Reciprocity]

10. Well you asked. It's the music more than the words.

I loved this song in The Return of the King
Lyrics by Fran Walsh, performed by Liv Tyler.

The Houses of Healing

With a sigh, you turn away
With a deepening heart, no more words to say
You will find that the world has changed forever

The trees are now turning from green to gold
And the sun is now fading
I wish I could hold you closer

11. Twilight Zone ~ Golden Earring

(somewhere in a lonely hotel room,
There's a guy starting to realize
That eternal fate has turned its back on him,
It's two a.m...........)

It's two a.m., the fear has gone
I'm sittin' here waitin', the gun still warm
Maybe my connection is tired of takin' chances
Yeah there's a storm on the loose, sirens in my head
I'm wrapped up in silence, all circuits are dead
I cannot decode, my whole life spins into a frenzy

Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far
Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far
Soon you will come to know,
When the bullet hits the bone
Soon you will come to know, when the bullet hits the bone

I'm falling down a spiral, destination unknown
A double-crossed messenger, all alone
I can't get no connection, can't get through, where are you
Well the night weighs heavy on his guilty mind
This far from the borderline
And when the hit man comes
He knows damn well he has been cheated

Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far
Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far
Soon you will come to know, when the bullet hits the bone
Soon you will come to know, when the bullet hits the bone

[Random_Australian]

12. Komm, susser Tod. (Come, sweet Death)

I know,
I know I've let you down
I've been a fool to myself, I thought that I could live for no-one else.
But now,
Through all the hurt and pain
It's time for me to respect the ones you love me more than anything.
So with sadness in my heart, feel the best thing I could do... is end it all and live forever.
What's done is done, it feels so bad, what once was happy now is sad,
I'll never love again, my world is ending.........

I wish that I could turn back time. Because now the gift is all mine, can't live without the trust from those you love.
I know, we can't forget the past. You can't forget love and pride,
because of that, it's killing me inside.

It all returns to nothing, it all comes tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down.
It all returns to nothing, I just keep letting me down, letting me down, letting me down.

In my heart of hearts, I know that I could never love again, I've lost everything, everything, everything that matters to me matters in this world.


I wish that I could turn back time. 'Cause now the gift is all mine, can't live without the trust from those you love.
I know, we can't forget the past. You can't forget love and pride,
because of that, it's killing me inside.

It all returns to nothing, it just keeps tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down.
It all returns to nothing, I just keep letting me down, letting me down, letting me down.

It all returns to nothing, it just keeps tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down.
It all returns to nothing, I just keep letting me down, letting me down, letting me down.

Tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down.

Letting me down, letting me down, letting me down.

Tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down.



********************************

Don't worry, it is not as bad as it sounds, there is a LOT more to the song than you get from lyrics.

Why do I feel that way? I am about to start a thread about it.

13. Rain by KAK
