Lyrics with great true meanings

Tool- Reflection

"I have come curiously close to the end, down
Beneath my self-indulgent pitiful hole,
Defeated, I concede and
Move closer
I may find comfort here
I may find peace within the emptiness
How pitiful

It's calling me...

And in my darkest moment, fetal and weeping
The moon tells me a secret - my confidant
As full and bright as I am
This light is not my own and
A million light reflections pass over me

Its source is bright and endless
She resuscitates the hopeless
Without her, we are lifeless satellites drifting

And as I pull my head out I am without one doubt
Don't wanna be down here feeding my narcissism.
I must crucify the ego before it's far too late
I pray the light lifts me out
Before I pine away.

So crucify the ego, before it's far too late
To leave behind this place so negative and blind and cynical,
And you will come to find that we are all one mind
Capable of all that's imagined and all conceivable.
Just let the light touch you
And let the words spill through
And let them pass right through
Bringing out our hope and reason ...
before we pine away."

[PeacefulWarrior]

Here are some wild, deep and sometimes silly lyrics from some of my favorite bands:

Spies

I awake to find no peace of mind,
I said, how do you live as a fugitive?

Down here where I cannot see so clear.

I said, what do I know?
Show me the right way to go,
And the spies came out of the water,
But you're feeling so bad cos you know,
And the spies hide out in every corner,
But you can't touch them no,
Cos they're all spies, they're all spies.

I awake to see that no one is free,
We're all fugitives,
Look at the way we live.
Down here, I cannot sleep from fear no.

I said, which way do I turn?
I forget everything I learn,
But the spies came out of the water,
But you're feeling so bad cos you know,
and the spies hide out in every corner,
But you can't touch them though,
Cos they're all spies, they're all spies.

And if we don't hide here,
They're going to find us,
If we don't hide now,
They're going to catch us where we sleep,
And if we don't hide here,
They're going to find us.

Sparks

Did I drive you away?
I know what you'll say,
You say, "Oh, sing one we know,"
But I promise you this,
I'll always look out for you,
That's what I'll do.

 I say "oh,", I say "oh."

 My heart is yours,
It's you that I hold on to,
That's what I do,
And I know I was wrong,
But I won't let you down,
(Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah I will, yes I will...)

I say "oh," I cry "oh."

Yeah I saw sparks,
Yeah I saw sparks,
And I saw sparks,
Yeah I saw sparks,

Sing it out.

 La, la, la, la, oh...
La, la, la, la, oh...
La, la, la, la, oh...

Yellow

Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And everything you do,
Yeah, they were all yellow.

I came along,
I wrote a song for you,
And all the things you do,
And it was called "Yellow."

So then I took my turn,
Oh what a thing to have done,
And it was all "Yellow."

Your skin
Oh yeah, your skin and bones,
Turn into something beautiful,
You know, you know I love you so,
You know I love you so.

I swam across,
I jumped across for you,
Oh what a thing to do.

Cos you were all "Yellow,"
I drew a line,
I drew a line for you,
Oh what a thing to do,
And it was all "Yellow."

Your skin,
Oh yeah your skin and bones,
Turn into something beautiful,
And you know for you,
I'd bleed myself dry for you,
I'd bleed myself dry.

It's true, look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine.

Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And all the things that you do.

Trouble

Oh no, I see,
A spider web is tangled up with me,
And I lost my head,
The thought of all the stupid things I said,
Oh no what's this?
A spider web, and I'm caught in the middle,
So I turned to run,
The thought of all the stupid things I've done,

I never meant to cause you trouble,
And I never meant to do you wrong,
And I, well if I ever caused you trouble,
Oh no, I never meant to do you harm.

Oh no I see,
A spider web and it's me in the middle,
So I twist and turn,
Here I am in my little bubble,

Singing, I never meant to cause you trouble,
I never meant to do you wrong,
And I, well if I ever caused you trouble,
Oh no, I never meant to do you harm.

They spun a web for me,
They spun a web for me,
They spun a web for me.

*** Thanx a lot to Raeford who corrected this one ***

Parachutes

In a haze, a stormy haze, I'll be round
I'll be loving you always, always.
Here I am and I'll take my time
Here I am and I'll wait in line always
Always.

High Speed

Can anybody fly this thing?
Before my head explodes,
Or my head starts to ring.

We've been living life inside a bubble,
We've been living life inside a bubble.

Confidence in you,
Is confidence in me,
Is confidence in high speed.

Can anybody stop this thing?
Before my head explodes,
Or my head starts to ring.

We've been living life inside a bubble,
We've been living life inside a bubble.

 Confidence in you,
Is confidence in me,
Is confidence in high speed.

 In high speed,
High speed.

High speed you on,
High speed you on,
High speed you on ,
High speed you on.

We Never Change

I want to live life, and never be cruel
I wanna live life, and be good to you

And i wanna fly
I'll never come down
And live my life
And have friends around

We never change do we no, no
We never learn do we
So i wanna live, in a wooden house
I wanna live life, and always be true
I wanna live life, and be good to you

And i wanna fly
But never come down
And live my life
And have friends around

We never change do we
We never learn do we
So i wanna live in a wooden house
And making more friends would be easy

Oh, and i don't have a soul to save
Yes and i sin every single day
We never change do we
We never learn do we

So i want to live in a wooden house
Where making more friends would be easy
I wanna live where the sun comes out

Everything's Not Lost

When I counted up my demons,
Saw there was one for everyday.
With the good ones on my shoulder,
I drove the other ones away.

So if you ever feel neglected,
And if you think all is lost,
I'llbe counting up my demons, yeah,
Hoping everything's not lost.

When you thought that it was over,
You could feel it all around.
Everybody's out to get you,
Don't you let it drag you down.

If you ever feel neglected,
And if you think all is lost.
I'll be counting up my demons, yeah,
Hoping everything's not lost.

If you ever feel neglected,
And if you think all is lost.

Life is for living

Now I never meant,
To do you wrong,
That's what I came here to say.

 But if I was wrong,
Then I'm sorry,
I don't let it stand in our way.

 As my head just aches,
When I think of,
The things that I shouldn't have done.

But, life is for living,
We all know,
And I don't wanna live it alone.

 Sing,
Ah, ah, oh,
Sing,
Ah, ah, oh,

And just think,
Ah, ah, oh.



1. Welcome - 2:55
Groove as your soul sings
spinnin' all around as we dust a melody
groove as your soul sings
spinnin' all around

Welcome to this groove, you can move right
we gonna take you higher (higher)
not caught in the quagmire (mire)
I can't survive on a stupid nine to five
I'd rather be poor writing tunes livin' on a commune
kickin' it with my brothers (brothers)
and significant others (others)
life in pursuit of only money, we think it's funny
the only thing that money it could ever bring to me
would be some gifts for my friends
follow me now, trips for my family
the only thing I love is freedom (freedom)
the people around me I need them (I need them)
I'd like to build the world a spliff, but like I said I said
you could never get me interested in dreams of wealth
myself my birthday happens to land on April 12th, wack

A Coney Island of the mind it's mine
I swipe the sweets, strip the beats in the sunshine
loco holmes because I'm thinking
a tone poem alone is love medicine
then the demon, spring revolution in my spirit
here it is and I will kill with it

Traveling head spinnin' from the medicine
illusions fadin' out and comin' on again
unwind your mind then find entire minutes
abstract the tract of sight day breaking in it
doles out my share of the world, ocean and sun
rising with a whirling motion (aw, yeah)

I fought, kicked and screamed my way to getting born
now I feel warm and I say come on
the night won't save anyone
wont you roam we've grown so we can write
again our soul select its own way for the travellin'
we're here, we're breathing
and we wanna keep our blood running
so we're gonna keep gunning till the next homecoming
I like the boogie to the bang bang boogie say up
jump the boogie to the bang bang come on

10. Evolution - (4:17)
(starshines)

My computer is future shockin'
download this and you'll start talkin'
upgraded, you're now walkin'
compatible with all that is rockin'
comin' on fast, it's getting' digital
it's so huge, like a spiritual
rippling out to every individual
this is life, it is a miracle

Evolution has exponential timing
it'll be half as long
till the next breakthrough that blows our mind
its up to the people to brave on with experimentation
move forth the species
by using our imagination

But can we handle it
could we dismantle it
or should we fear the void
and just be para-paranoid?
if it's understood
it could be used for good, and would
if you will believe in
all we can conceive

On the periodic table they got it all wrong
let me lay it down for you in this song
people want PT, they want AU
but lemme tell you what you really ought to do
figure out ways to master silicon
fiber-optic connectors, whatever's beyond
so many people don't even attempt to understand
the limitless possibilities of man

Evolution has exponential timing
it'll be half as long
till the next breakthrough that blows our mind
its up to the people to brave on with experimentation
move forth the species
by using our imagination

But can we handle it
could we dismantle it
or should we fear the void
and just be para-paranoid?
if it's understood
it could be used for good, and would
if you will believe in
all we can conceive

I feel trapped, i gotta adapt
remain calm collecting before I get zapped
my computer is a rebel, acting all fine and
just like that payin' me no mind
what's up, is it's program over come by a glitch
is it becoming conscious
and if so, ain't that a grump
i'll paid too much for this piece
i'll be damned if it tries any funny business
it'll be the one that pays the price

Evolution has exponential timing
it'll be half as long
till the next breakthrough that blows our mind
its up to the people to brave on with experimentation
move forth the species
by using our imagination

using our imagination

But can we handle it
could we dismantle it
or should we fear the void
and just be para-paranoid?
if it's understood
it could be used for good, and would
if you will believe in
all we can conceive

Yes we can handle it
we could dismantle it
we should not fear the void
and just be para-paranoid
if it's understood
it could be used for good, and would
if you will believe in
all we can conceive

Culture Beat - Anything

Is there anything more I can do for you
Should my hair be red, or shall it blue ?
Is there anything more I can do for you
Shall I let the green grass turn black for you ?
Is there something more you want me to do
Shall I hand up all my secrets to you
Maybe then you'll see me too
Is there something more ?
Yeah yeah yeah...

You got me on my knees, saying please are you a tease
You change locks, so I change keys
Giving, always giving, how ya living it's a drain
Hard to see the light as anything but a train
Is passion out of fashion, am I on the wrong track
Hard for me to take but you can tell me what I lack
Been the early bird but I gets no worm
Treat me like a germ, but I still stand firm
Chasing am I wasting all my time on the cause
Do you want a break or do you need a pause
Never knew no one like you that is never impressed
Is it how I'm dressed huh, or am I just a pest
I think you bend me just to see if I will break
Evasion from the case, just to see what I will take
Lead me, lead me on, because you know I wanna swing
Question that I'm pressing, is there anything

Do you want a break or do you need a pause
Do you want a break or do you need a pause
Do you want a break or, do you want to break or do you need a pause
And the beat keeps going on...

Hard for me to take but you can tell me what I lack

Wanting what you flaunting, can't blame me for my thirst
Betcha got a bubble, baby, begging to be burst
Hopin' while I'm scopin', dirty mind is in effect
Rigorous and vigorous how you turn my neck
Heated now I'm hotter for your hips, put me on
Sweat ya in the eve, sweat ya in the morn
Yearning yeah, I'm yearning, got an itch, need a scratch
Money I can make, but it's hard to make a match
Craving what you're saying, waiting for your will to cave in
Read me like a book, I'm misbehaving
Tell me what you need and your need I'll try to feed
Hear me as I beg, hear me as I plead
Runaway, run all day but you can't hide
I see you're fighting feelings that you feel inside
Tell me want I want and I'll tell you what I bring
The question from the King, is there anything

The origianl is a Eurodance song, but our band did a hardcore cover, Rage Against the Machine style...

Darkness - In my dreams

Dreams
Sometimes reality, sometimes illusions
They can come to you straight from the darkness
The evil is trying to get your soul. Dreams. Dreams

In my dreams
In my fantasy
I can see
All the things that will be
Rescue me
From my fantasy
In my dreams, in my dreams, in my dreams

Dreams come in my mind like a hurricane
Nine minutes from thirty in the boogyman
I wake up in the middle of the night
My body sweats, I twist from side to side
I can't stand, I can't stand the feeling
Praying to God and I hope that I'm dreaming
My hands are bleeding, heads are bleeding
Lookin' to my mom and she starts screaming
What's going on, I can't stand the feeling
Turn my heads and I see my face in the ceiling
Each and every night, different faces
I'm the man in my dream in different places
Yes I'm lost and scared of the illusion
My mind is full, full of confusion
My body hurts, I twist from side to side
I wake up in the middle of the night

Dreams. They went into my soul
They give you plseasure till you I lose control
I can't sleep 'cause I got fear fear
I got fear of the things that I hear
Who's gonna be the one who helps from myself
I need somebody, I need help
My body's flyins, body's flyin
Just be a friend and I and I
Rescue me, rescue me. Oh come on rescue me
I'm on a road, on a road to nowhere
I'm on a roll, alone, where's my teddy bear
I can see you tonight 'cause I got fear
Somebody's screamin' loud and clear
I get shot and twist from side to side
I wake up in the middle of the night

----

I had my first astral projection after hearing this song...

Truly brilliant. It is definitely worth downloading if you get the chance.

Avril Lavigne
Anything But Ordinary (Just a piece, not whole thing)

Let down your defenses
Use no common sense
If you look, you will see
that this world is a
beautiful
accident
turbulent
succulent
opulent
permanent, no way
I wanna taste it
Don't wanna waste it awaaaaaaaaaaay...

Live - Dance With You

sittin' on the beach
the island king of love
deep in fijian seas
deep in some blissful dream
where the goddess finally sleeps
in the lap of her lover
subdued in all her rage
and I am aglow with the taste
of the demons driven out
and happily replaced
with the presence of real love
the only one who saves

the stillness in your eyes
convinces me that I
I don't know a thing
and I been around the world and I've
tasted all the wines
a half a billion times
came sickened to your shores
you show me what this life is for

I wanna dance with you
I see a world where people live and die with grace
the karmic ocean dried up and leave no trace
I wanna dance with you
I see a sky full of the stars that change our minds
and lead us back to a world we would not face

in this altered state
full of so much pain and rage
you know we got to find a way to let it go

[manuel]

There many songs out there with amazing lyrics that speak great truths, so go and post any that have a close place to you for me it has to be Blue oyster cult- dont fear the reaper
-------

All our times have come
Here but now they're gone
Seasons don't fear the reaper
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain..we can be like they are
Come on baby...don't fear the reaper
Baby take my hand...don't fear the reaper
We'll be able to fly...don't fear the reaper
Baby I'm your man...
Valentine is done
Here but now they're gone
Romeo and Juliet
Are together in eternity...Romeo and Juliet
40,000 men and women everyday...Like Romeo and Juliet
40,000 men and women everyday...Redefine happiness
Another 40,000 coming everyday...We can be like they are
Come on baby...don't fear the reaper
Baby take my hand...don't fear the reaper
We'll be able to fly...don't fear the reaper
Baby I'm your man...
Love of two is one
Here but now they're gone
Came the last night of sadness
And it was clear she couldn't go on
Then the door was open and the wind appeared
The candles blew then disappeared
The curtains flew then he appeared...saying don't be afraid
Come on baby...and she had no fear
And she ran to him...then they started to fly
They looked backward and said goodbye...she had become like they are
She had taken his hand...she had become like they are
Come on baby...don't fear the reaper
