| Re: Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) Alexisonfire - This Could Be Anywhere
This town has its claws
Buried in my neck
This town it takes lives
Without mercy
Without hate
The streets are in distress
The sun sufficates behind darkened skies
The grass is growing
On top of my feet
I'm sinking
Won't be long
Before i'm too deep too run
The line up seems endless
Underneath the salvation signs
We are the dead ones
We are the lost cause
We are the bend before the break
Our steps seal our fate
Because this city, this city is haunted
By ghosts from broken homes
This city, this city is haunted
And there's no hope left for these souls
Every step i take
I leave a small piece of myself behind
Soon there will be nothing left
The cracks in the pavement
Match the cracks in their weathered skin
The sky's a brick wall
The ground's a juggernaut
Each day they get a bit closer
Between them, i am caught
As i stare in amazement i can't believe
This is where i live
Every breath i take
I feel my lungs seal
this breeze feels more like shards of glass
I'm more scars than skin
Because this city, this city is haunted
By ghosts from broken homes
This city, this city is haunted
And there's no hope left for these souls
Our steps seal fate [x2]
This is our celebration
Come join the lost souls [x2]
This city, this city is haunted
Walk with us now
Because this city, this city is haunted
By ghosts from broken homes
This city, this city is haunted
And there's no hope left for these souls

| Re: Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) Immortal Technique & Mos Def - Bin Laden
[Mos Def - talking]
Man, you hear this bullshit they be talkin'
Every day, man
It's like these motherfuckers is just like professional liars
YouknowwhatI'msayin? It's wild
Listen [Hook - Mos Def]
Bin Laden didn't blow up the projects
It was you, nigga
Tell the truth, nigga (Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]
Tell the truth, nigga (Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]
Tell the truth, nigga
Bin Laden didn't blow up the projects
It was you, nigga
Tell the truth, nigga (Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]
Tell the truth, nigga (Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss] [Verse 1 - Immortal Technique]
I pledge no allegiance, nigga fuck the president's speeches
I'm baptized by America and covered in leeches
The dirty water that bleaches your soul and your facial features
Drownin' you in propaganda that they spit through the speakers
And if you speak about the evil that the government does
The Patriot Act'll track you to the type of your blood
They try to frame you, and say you was tryna sell drugs
And throw a federal indictment on niggaz to show you love
This shit is run by fake Christians, fake politicians
Look at they mansions, then look at the conditions you live in
All they talk about is terrorism on television
They tell you to listen, but they don't really tell you they mission
They funded Al-Qaeda, and now they blame the Muslim religion
Even though Bin Laden, was a CIA tactician
They gave him billions of dollars, and they funded his purpose
Fahrenheit 9/11, that's just scratchin' the surface [Hook - Mos Def]
Bin Laden didn't blow up the projects
It was you, nigga
Tell the truth, nigga (Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]
Tell the truth, nigga (Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]
Tell the truth, nigga
Bin Laden didn't blow up the projects
It was you, nigga
Tell the truth, nigga (Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]
Tell the truth, nigga (Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss] [Verse 2 - Immortal Technique]
They say the rebels in Iraq still fight for Saddam
But that's bullshit, I'll show you why it's totally wrong
Cuz if another country invaded the hood tonight
It'd be warfare through Harlem, and Washington Heights
I wouldn't be fightin' for Bush or White America's dream
I'd be fightin' for my people's survival and self-esteem
I wouldn't fight for racist churches from the south, my nigga
I'd be fightin' to keep the occupation out, my nigga
You ever clock someone who talk shit, or look at you wrong?
Imagine if they shot at you, and was rapin' your moms
And of course Saddam Hussein had chemical weapons
We sold him that shit, after Ronald Reagan's election
Mercenary contractors fightin' a new era
Corporate military bankin' off the war on terror
They controllin' the ghetto, with the failed attack
Tryna distract the fact that they engineerin' the crack
So I'm strapped like Lee Malvo holdin' a sniper rifle
These bullets'll touch your kids, and I don't mean like Michael
Your body be sent to the morgue, stripped down and recycled
I fire on house niggaz that support you and like you
Cuz innocent people get murdered in the struggle daily
And poor people never get shit and struggle daily
This ain't no alien conspiracy theory, this shit is real
Written on the dollar underneath the Masonic seal [Hook - Mos Def]
Bin Laden didn't blow up the projects
It was you, nigga
Tell the truth, nigga (Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]
Tell the truth, nigga (Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]
Tell the truth, nigga

| Re: Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) So far it has to be,
All That Remains - This Calling
I secretly crave, crave that scent again
Still feel it pressing on me now
Now with the onset, my flesh is weakening
I steel my nerves for temptations at hand again
And I hear this calling still you don't seem so far at all
And I hear this calling out
No secrets deception for these would tear this down
I'll note the past spare the pain
words match my deeds with brutal honesty
never forget these choices were made by me
And I hear this calling still you don't seem so far at all
And I hear this calling out
Not falling victim to the fire that burns inside of me
though I am fearful I can not prevent this tragedy
My strengths been tested I wear the scars that prove
Still I believe that this calling will see me through
And I hear this calling still you don't seem so far at all
And I hear this calling out
My strengths been tested I wear the scars that prove
Still I believe that this calling will see me through |

| Re: Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) Less Than Jake - The Rest Of My Life
I fell asleep last Saturday
Underneath polluted skies
I walked alone in those Jersey nights
And I
Saw the board walk start to fall
The emptyness starts to drown
The quiet corners of this town tonight
Late last night I made my plans
It was the only thing I felt I could do
Said goodbye to my best friend
Sometimes there’s no one left to tell you the truth
It's gonna kill me the rest of my life
Let me apologize while I’m still alive
I know it's time to face
All of my past mistakes
It's gonna kill me for the rest of my life
This is my all time low
Somehow it feels so familiar
Somehow it seems so familiar
I feel like letting go
And every second that goes by
I’m screaming out for second tries
Said goodbye to my best friend
Sometimes there’s no one left to tell you the truth
It's gonna kill me the rest of my life
Let me apologize while I'm still alive
I know it's time to face
All of my past mistakes
I've got to live with them the rest of my life
This is the mess I've made
These are the words I can’t erase
This is my life support
Shutting down
For the final time
And it twists like a blade
And kills me for the rest of my life
If you won’t forgive me the rest of my life
Let me apologize while I’m still alive
I know it's time to face
All of my past mistakes
It's gonna kill me for the rest of my life
S'always the first song you hear in the morning, isn't it? Blame Scuzz.

| Re: Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) Tricky and Martina Topley Bird - Suffocated Love
Tricky:
It's too good, it's too nice
She makes me finish too quick
Is it love? No not love
She turns my sexual trick
She says she's mine, I know she lies
First, I scream, then I cry
You take a second of me
You beckon, I'll bleed
She suffocates me
She suffocates me with suggestions
I asked 'do you feel the same?'
And later on, maybe
I'll tell you my real name
She's so good, she's so bad
You understand, I can't expand
Now I could just kill a man
She's on her knees, I say please
I cross her city lines, she's got fine highs
Martina:
I think ahead of you, I think instead of you
Will you spend your life with me
And stifle me?
I know why the caged bird sings, I know why
Tricky:
Forgive and you're forgiven
Kingdom come
Can you wait for yours
I need to taste some
Life's really funny
I laugh while she spends my money
She's my freak
I guess I'm weak
You ask what is this?
Mind your business
I pass idle days with my idle ways
'Til the twelfth of always
She walks my hallways
I keep her warm, but we never kiss
She cuts my slender wrists
Let's waste some more time
I sign the dotted line
A different level
She-devil
Martina:
I think ahead of you, I think instead of you
Will you spend your life with me
And stifle me?
I know why the caged bird sings, I know why
Tricky:
You ask what is this?
Mind your business
I pass idle days with my idle ways
'Til the twelfth of always
She walks my hallways
I keep her warm but we never kiss
She says I'm weak and immature
But it's cool
I know what money's for
Push comes to shove
Her tongue's her favourite weapon, attack
I slap her back, she mostly hates me
Martina:
I think ahead of you, I think instead of you
Will you spend your life with me
And stifle me?
I know why the caged bird sings, I know why
Tricky:
Can I take off her clothes
Before we go out
And then helpless
I'll scream and shout
We finish everyday
Well, anyway
Sixty-nine degrees
My head's between her knees.
You ask what is this?
Mind your business
It's too good, it's too nice
She makes me finish too quick
Is it love? No not love
She turns my sexual trick
She says she's mine, I know she lies
First, I scream, then I cry
Take a second of me
You beckon, I'll bleed
Take a second of me
Martina:
I think ahead of you, I think instead of you
Will you spend your life with me
And stifle me?
I know why the caged bird sings, I know why
I know why the caged bird sings, I know why |

| Re: Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) for me it has to be IAMX - Spit it out. And if you're hurting
I will replace the noise with silence instead
Flushing out your head
If you like it violent
We can play rough and tumble
Fall into bed
And I won't breathe so you can recover
When you're in pieces
Just follow the echo of my voice
It's okay
Tune into that frequency
Don't fight your reflex
Embrace the instinct
You can feel your way
Through the bed and weak face in the end
'cause it breaks my heart
That we live this way
I know people need love
'cause them people never play the game
And we talk the talk
We communicate
The people need love
Those people never play the game
Pleasure for pleasure
It eases consequence
And love for a fall
But I know you love to take a risk
The past is weakness
Don't beg the question when the answer is war
There are moments when I'm overcome
'cause it breaks my heart
That we live this way
I know people need love
'cause them people never play the game
And we talk the talk
We communicate
Them people need love
Those people never play the game
And it breaks my heart
And it breaks my heart
In love |

| Re: Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) Better man ~ Pearl Jam
Waitin', watchin' the clock, it's four o'clock, it's got to stop
Tell him, take no more, she practices her speech
As he opens the door, she rolls over...
Pretends to sleep as he looks her over
She lies and says she's in love with him, can't find a better man...
She dreams in color, she dreams in red, can't find a better man...
Can't find a better man
Ohh...
A Better man
Talkin' to herself, there's no one else who needs to know...
She tells herself, oh...
Memories back when she was bold and strong
And waiting for the world to come along...
Swears she knew it, now she swears he's gone
She lies and says she's in love with him, can't find a better man...
She dreams in color, she dreams in red, can't find a better man...
She lies and says she still loves him, can't find a better man...
She dreams in color, she dreams in red, can't find a better man...
Can't find a better man
Yeah...
She loved him, yeah...she don't want to leave this way
She needs him, yeah...that's why she'll be back again
Can't find a better man
Can't find a better...man...
Ohh...ohh...
Uh huh...
Ohh...

| Re: Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) Damascus, Nerina Pallot
Years ago, you said to me
"I think I'm losing the fight,
Or the fights losing me, I'm not certain."
And here we are - the closing scenes
And all the house lights come up
Oh, the falling of our final curtain...
I've played a role for so long that I've forgotten myself
But I said I'd be there and I'm keeping my word
You've played yourself so well
And now I want to be you -
A great imitation of losing my nerve.
Oh its over
And everything is wrong
Everything has gone
And I know that everything means nothing
Oh its over
But I don't want to fight
I don't want to be right
I know that everything means nothing
On the road to Damascus they fell
I saw the light, I saw the light!
But hey, it never saw me
Oh conversion has just left me heathen
And we could wait a thousand years
perhaps a million or more
if its worth waiting for, but i'm leaving
So on to a mecca of earthly delights -
Depression is only desire deprived
Once more unto the breach and fuck my getting it right
We've died for so long, let's just get out alive
Cause its over
And everything is wrong
Everything has gone
And I know that everything means nothing
Oh its over
But I don't want to fight
I don't want to be right
I know that everything means nothing
On the road to Damascus they fell
Its hell, hell is where I'm going to be
The devil, my intimate friend
And hell is other people's hearts
And knowing that everything must end
Oh its over
And everything is wrong
Everything has gone
And I know that everything means nothing
Oh its over
But I don't want to fight
I don't want to be right
I know that everything means nothing
On the road to Damascus they fell
Well I've been to Damascus as well |

| Re: Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) The Strokes - Heart In A Cage
Well I don't feel better
When I'm fucking around
And I don't write better
When I'm stuck in the ground
So don't teach me a lesson
Cause I've already learned
Yeah the sun will be shining
And my children will burn
Oh the heart beats in its cage
I don't want what you want
I don't feel what you feel
See I'm stuck in a city
But I belong in a field
Yeah we got left, left, left, left, left, left, left
Now it's three in the morning and you're eating alone
Oh the heart beats in its cage
All our friends, they're laughing at us
All of those you loved you mistrust
Help me I'm just not quite myself
Look around there's no one else left
I went to the concert and I fought through the crowd
Guess I got too excited when I thought you were around
Oh he gets left, left, left, left, left, left, left
I'm sorry you were thinking; I would steal your fire.
The heart beats in its cage
Yes the heart beats in its cage
Alright
And the heart beats in its cage

| Re: Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) I want something
That's purer than the water
Like we were
It's not there now
Ineloquence and anger
Are all we have
Like Saturn's rings
An icy loop around me
Too hard to hold
Lash out first
At all the things we don't like
Or understand
And it's beginning to get to me
That I know more of the stars and sea
Than I do of what's in your head
Barely touching in our cold bed
Are you beginning to get get my point
They're always fighting with aching joints
It's doing nothing but tire us out
No one knows what this fight's about
The answer phone
The lonely sound of your voice
Frozen in time
I only need
The compass that you gave me
To guide me on
And it's beginning to get to me
That I know more of the stars and sea
Than I do of what's in your head
Barely touching in our cold bed
Are you beginning to get get my point
They're always fighting with aching joints
It's doing nothing but tire us out
No one knows what this fight's about
It's so thrilling but also wrong
Don't have to prove that you are so strong
Cos I can carry you on my back
After our enemies attack
I tried to tell you before I left
But I was screaming under my breath
You are the only thing that makes sense
Just ignore all this present tense
We need to feel breathless with love
And not collapse under its weight
I'm gasping for the air to fill
My lungs with everything I've lost
We need to feel breathless with love
And not collapse under its weight
I'm gasping for the air to fill
My lungs with everything I've lost

| Re: Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) I never get sick of this song. Massive Attack - Unfinished Sympathy
I know that i've been mad in love before
And how it could be with you
Really hurt me baby, really cut me baby
How can you have a day without a night
You're the book that I have opened
And now i've got to know much more
The curiousness of your potential kiss
Has got my mind and body aching
Really hurt me baby, really cut me baby
How can you have a day without a night
You're the book that I have opened
And now I've got to know much more
Like a soul without a mind
In a body without a heart
I'm missing every part |

| Re: Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) I'm having two songs of the day. Semisonic - Secret Smile
Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
And you use it only for me
Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
And you use it only for me
So use it and prove it
Remove this whirling sadness
I'm losing, I'm bluesing
But you can save me from madness
Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
And you use it only for me
Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
And you use it only for me
So save me I'm waiting
I'm needing, hear me pleading
And soothe me, improve me
I'm grieving, I'm barely believing now, now
When you are flying around and around the world
And I'm lying alonely
I know there's something sacred and free reserved
And received by me only |

| Re: Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) Cruxshadows: Bloodline
Drag down
Feel this
Fatal heartbeat
So deep
Like a pound-pound-pounding
In the street
Cry out
I heard you
Slowly waking
Drowned out
and slowly making back the wrapping line
They cut the bloodline in the center
And injected this hated strain
They cut the bloodline
They left it wanting
Feeding on this you'll remain [youth remains]
(And She Goes)
Give me the Light
Give me your Love
Give me your Innocence
Give me the Blood
Give me your Life
Give me your Love
Give me your innocence
Give me the Blood
Give me the Blood
Give me the Blood
Fallout
That they left here from the time before
Fall down
This throb-throb-throbbing war
Reach out
But the words are so empty
Fall then
And the edges fade to black
They cut the bloodline in the center
And injected this hated strain
They cut the bloodline
They left it wanting
Feeding on this you'll remain [youth remains]
(But We Go)
Give me the Light
Give me your Love
Give me your Innocence
Give me the Blood
Give me your Life
Give me your Love
Give me your innocence
Give me the Blood
Give me the Blood
Give me the Blood
They take away
The very breath
To see it here
And make it hurt
I want to feel this inside-out
All of you have watered-out
I want to try it in this soul
To drink it free
And part it whole
A sacrifice you will not give
You must not try
It will not tear
Writing old
And right inside
You want to find the very heart
Bloodline
Give me the Light
Give me your Love
Give me your Innocence
Give me the Blood
Give me your Life
Give me your Love
Give me your Innocence
Give me the Blood
Give me the Blood
Give me the Blood
They try this fight
To make it free
And dance inside this entropy
They move the cut
They bite the runt
Who'll break it and fall there undone
They're looking hard
The final dead
Another face may part it red
They want to fight
They want to see
Enrapture you
For eternity
For eternity" |

| Re: Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) The Flaming Lips - Haven't Got A Clue
Oh man!
Oh right!
1, 2
3
You haven't got a clue
And you don't know what to do
You used your money and your friends
To try and trick me
But you won't trick me
As far as I can tell
You've created your own hell
Now you walk around this place
Expecting pity
Every time you throw a fit
I can't decide if you're full of it
And every time you state your case
The more I want to punch your face
I go
Doo-doo doo (x8)
I stil can't believe
All your plastic surgery
Now it's everybody's problem
That you're unhappy
Oh, come on!
And every time you state your case
The more I want to punch your face
And every time you state your case
The more I want to punch your face
And every time you state your case
The more I want to punch your face
I go
Doo-doo doo (x24)
