I was just reading some lyrics from the band Kashmir and I thought it was pretty
good. I like lyrics with depth for example The Cardigans - You're the Storm. For
anime I like the lyric to Brothers from FMA. really sad...
Then I started wondering what kind of lyrics your guys here on MT liked Soo...
What is you favorite lyric and why? ^^
Well, I loved the lyrics to James Blunt's " No Bravery ", it was very
meaningful and sad. It was a commentary on world problems and all that, about
people treating each other worse as time passes.
For anime, I think I like the lyrics to Angela's " Hatenaki Monologue
", which was used in the OAV Soukyu no Fafner: Right or Left.
I love the lyrics to Cradle of Filth's "A Gothic Romance (Red Roses For the
Devil's Whore)"
"Evening minuetto in a castle by the sea
A jewel more radiant than the moon, lowered her mask to me
The sublimest creature the gods full of fire
Would marvel in making their queen
Infusing the air with her fragrant desire, my heart reeled with grave
poetry...
From grace, I fell in love with her
Scent and feline lure, and jade woodland eyes that ushered in the impurest
Erotic-laden fantasies amid this warm autumn night
She lulled me away from the rich masquerade
and together we clung in the bloodletting moonlight
Pearled luna, what spell didst thou cast on me?
Her icy kiss fervoured my neck like whispering waves 'pon Acheron's beach
In the whirl of sweet voices and statues that phantomed the dying trees
This debauched seductress in black took me...
In the pale azured dawn like Ligeia reborn
I tore free of my sleep, sepulchre
In the sea-misted lawn where stone figures forlorn
Lamented the spectre of her
Bewildered and weak yet with passion replete
I hungered for past overtures
With a curse in my breast and her ardent caress
Came much more than my soul could endure...."
to give you a taste. :-)
I love all of Cradle of Filth's lyrics, mainly because they're so poetic. Dani
Filth has a way with words, for sure. That, and I love the historical references
they bring into a lot of their songs. For example, "Acheron's beach"?
Taken from Dante's Inferno, I believe.
Another head hangs lowly,
Child is slowly taken.
And the violence caused such silence,
Who are we mistaken?
But you see, it's not me, it's not my family.
In your head, in your head they are fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are crying...
In your head, in your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie,
Hey, hey, hey. What's in your head,
In your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie?
Hey, hey, hey, hey, oh, dou, dou, dou, dou, dou...
Another mother's breakin',
Heart is taking over.
When the vi'lence causes silence,
We must be mistaken.
It's the same old theme since nineteen-sixteen.
In your head, in your head they're still fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are dying...
In your head, in your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie,
Hey, hey, hey. What's in your head,
In your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie?
Hey, hey, hey, hey, oh, oh, oh,
Oh, oh, oh, oh, hey, oh, ya, ya-a...
the lonely loonies on the playground
reveal their shadows to the day
they crash in planes on smack and weird sounds
and leaves us gold upon their graves
our lives becomes less ordinary
show us that it doesn't hurt to die
is it so gorgeous
is it enchanted
is it revealing
I feel so lucky I have seen you
and rapture spread among the crowd
I wish for once I could have met you
before they wrapped you in a shroud
the giants always get their heads chopped
or drown in muddy waters in the south
is it so gorgeous
is it enchanted
is it forever
is it so gorgeous
is it enchanted
is it eternal
with a rude tongue dressed in spiteful eloquence
you would call
calling for a love that never came
you would wait, you would call
and you'd wait and you'd call
back here I am in search of answers
I won't accept what I was told
it's only fair to die from cancer
when you're old enough to say you're old
the reverb you left is never over
tolling for the only one who is not present -
still so gorgeous
so enchanted
so forever
is it so gorgeous
is it enchanted
is it eternal
is it tomorrow
Just felt like posting it.. Hope somebody will read it and enjoy
Right Where It Belongs from Nine Inch Nails.
Whatever Will Be, Will Be (Que Sera, Sera) from Ray Evans.
Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head by B.J Thomas.
When I'm sixty-four by The Beatles.
The wheels of life keep turning.
Spinning without control;
The wheels of the heart keep yearning.
For the sound of the singing soul.
And nights are full with weeping.
For sins of the past weve sown;
But, tomorrow is ours for the keeping,
Tomorrow the futures shown.
Lift your eyes and see the glory.
Where the circle of life is drawn;
See the never-ending story,
Come with me to the Gates of Dawn.
And whose is the hand who raises
The sun from the heaving sea?
The power that ever amazes
We look, but never will see?
Who scattered the seeds so life could be,
Who coloured the fields of corn?
Who formed the mould that made me me,
Before the world was born?
Lift your eyes and see the glory.
Where the circle of life is drawn;
See the never-ending story,
Come with me to the Gates of Dawn.
Lift your eyes and see the glory.
Where the circle of life is drawn;
See the never-ending story,
Come with me to the Gates of Dawn.
Lift your eyes and see the glory.
Where the circle of life is drawn;
See the never-ending story,
Come with me to the Gates of Dawn
And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
and sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
did you happen to catch
or did it happen so fast
what you thought would always last
has passed you by
is everything speeding up
or am I slowing down
just spinning around
and I don't know why
all the pieces don't fit
thought I really didn't give a shit
I never wanted to be like you
but for all I aspire
I am really a liar
and I'm running out of things I can do
I'd like to stay
but every day
everything pushes me further away
if you could show
help me to know
how it's supposed to be
where did it go?
pleading and
needing and
bleeding and
breeding and
feeding
exceeding
where is everybody?
trying and lying
defying denying
crying and dying
where is everybody?
well okay, enough,
you've had your fun
but come on there has to be someone
that hasn't yet become
so numb and succumb
and god damn I am so tired of pretending
of wishing I was ending
when all I'm really doing is trying to hide
and keep it inside
and fill it with lies
open my eyes?
maybe I wish I could try
pleading and needing
and bleeding and breeding
and feeding exceeding
where is everybody?
trying and lying
defying denying
crying and dying
where is everybody?
Miles Away
There's hopeless smiles brighter than mine
And I need for you to come and go
Without the truth falling out.
Old incisions refusing to stay
Like the sun through the trees on a cloudy day
You brighten my life like a polystyrene hat
But it melts in the sun like a life without love
And I've waited for you so I'll keep holding on
Without you
Telephone
Socially scared and impaired
If the trees will bloom the wind can blow
Without the fruit falling out
Old incisions refusing to stay
Like the sun through the trees on a cloudy day
You brighten my life like a polystyrene hat
But it melts in the sun like a life without love
And I've waited for you so I'll keep holding on
Without you
Feels like the wind blows
Holding you with us
She takes no other
False light and ashes
Blooming like winter
You brighten my life like a polystyrene hat
But it melts in the sun like a life without love
And I've waited for you so I'll keep holding on
Without you
Without you
Without you....

Have you ever seen such a beautiful night?
I could almost kiss the stars for shining so bright
When I see you smile and I go

Hishoku no Sora by Kawada Mami from Shakugan no Shana.Because it really suits with the anime..
Mine will be The World by Nightmare.I'm attracted to the lyrics don't know why.
oh such a hard choice...but I'm addicted to this song right now, it has the best guitar solo
Kalmah-Evil in You
The time is right you and I
We will fight the final battle
Gone away the bond of passion
Death of faith, left aggression
We sworn the oath, now it is broken
Gone away with deception
I'll root out the nest of rebellion
Wage of sin, total subjection
The ancient law from the old union - obedience !
In the face of judge you regret
Sue for mercy before the creating
Remove the one for me to end
Only way to endless purity
Now you find the path of rightness
Opens the gate to deepest openness
True peace in the place of paradise
Will decay
Whiplash, flowing tears
Resumed respect
Supreme power
Beats the evil out of you

Spinning without control;
The wheels of the heart keep yearning.

Tomorrow the futures shown.
Lift your eyes and see the glory.
Where the circle of life is drawn;

And whose is the hand who raises

Silverchair - Without You Lyrics
Miles Away
There's hopeless smiles brighter than mine
And I need for you to come and go
Without the truth falling out.
Old incisions refusing to stay
Like the sun through the trees on a cloudy day
You brighten my life like a polystyrene hat
But it melts in the sun like a life without love
And I've waited for you so I'll keep holding on
Without you
Telephone
Socially scared and impaired
If the trees will bloom the wind can blow
Without the fruit falling out
Old incisions refusing to stay
Like the sun through the trees on a cloudy day
You brighten my life like a polystyrene hat
But it melts in the sun like a life without love
And I've waited for you so I'll keep holding on
Without you
Feels like the wind blows
Holding you with us
She takes no other
False light and ashes
Blooming like winter
You brighten my life like a polystyrene hat
But it melts in the sun like a life without love
And I've waited for you so I'll keep holding on
Without you
Without you
Without you....
I love the lyrics to the savage garden song, affirmation. Don't really know why.
