I'll start off:

"Now I could let these dream killers kill my self-esteem
Or use my arrogance as the steam to power my dreams" - Kanye West - Last Call

"See I don't know if you get it yet,
(just don't know)
he's like a lighter to my cigarette,
(watch me smoke)" - Ashanti - Baby

"So keep slurpin I'll be down to the fullest
But forget it b*tch, yo' nipples look like AK bullets" - Kuniva's verse on D12's - Nasty Mind

"the most hated on out of all those who say they get hated on in eighty songs and exaggerate it all
so much, they make it all up, there's no such thing, like a female with good looks, who cooks and cleans" - Eminem - Business

 

[Farfalla]

"What if all the world's inside of your head
Just creations of your own?
Your devils and your gods
All the living and the dead
And you really are alone
You can live in this illusion
You can choose to believe
You keep looking but you can't find the woods
While you're hiding in the trees"
Nine Inch Nails - Right where it belongs


"We're damaged people
Drawn together
By subtleties that we are not aware of
Disturbed souls
Playing out forever
These games that we once thought we would be scared of"
Depeche Mode - Damaged people


"She lives with a broken man
A cracked polystyrene man
Who just crumbles and burns
He used to do surgery
For girls in the eighties
But gravity always wins"
Radiohead - Fake plastic trees


Those are not my favorites, but I love them .-. Can't remember all the lyrics I love now to rate them XD

 

[Evil3ye]

some luv hurtz lyrcis;

"I smoke your brand of cigarettes
And pray that you might give me a call
I lie around in bed all day just staring at the walls
Hanging round bars at night wishing I had never been born
And give myself to anyone who wants to take me home"

Spoiler: Garbage - Cup Of Coffee, beautifulgarbage

You tell me you don't love me over a cup of coffee
And I just have to look away
A million miles between us
Planets crashing into dust
I just let it fade away

I'm walking empty streets hoping we might meet
I see your car parked on the road
The light on at your window
I know for sure that you're home
But I just have to pass on by

So no of course we can't be friends
Not while I'm still this obsessed
I guess I always knew the score
This is how our story ends

I smoke your brand of cigarettes
And pray that you might give me a call
I lie around in bed all day just staring at the walls
Hanging round bars at night wishing I had never been born
And give myself to anyone who wants to take me home

So no of course we can't be friends
Not while I still feel like this
I guess I always knew the score
This is where our story ends

You left behind some clothes
My belly somersaults when I pick them off the floor
My friends all say they're worried
I'm looking far too skinny
I've stopped returning all their calls

And no of course we can't be friends
Not while I'm still so obsessed
I want to ask where I went wrong
But don't say anything at all

It took a cup of coffee
To prove that you don't love me

"When I think about it I know that I was never held or even cared
The more I think about it the less that I was able to share with you
I try to reach for you, I can almost feel you
You're nearly here and then
You disappear"

Spoiler: Beyonce - Disappear, I Am... Sasha Fierce

If I beg and if I cry would it change the sky tonight?
Will it give me sunlight?
Should I wait for you to call? Is there any hope at all?
Are you drifting by?

When I think about it I know that I was never held or even cared
The more I think about it the less that I was able to share with you
I try to reach for you, I can almost feel you
You're nearly here and then

You disappear
(Disappear, disappear, disappear)
You disappear
(Disappear, disappear, disappear)

And then I lie all by myself, I see your face, I hear your voice
My heart stays faithful
And time has come and time has passed, if it's good, it's got to last
It feels so right

When I think about it I know that I was never held or even cared
The more I think about it the less that I was able to share with you
I try to reach for you, I can almost feel you
You're nearly here and then

You disappear
(Disappear, disappear, disappear)
You disappear
(Disappear, disappear, disappear)
You, you disappear
(Disappear, disappear, disappear)
You disappear

I missed all the signs one at a time
You were ready
What did I know starting our lives
No, my love I'm ready to shine

When I think about it I know that I was never held or even cared
The more I think about it the less that I was able to share with you
I try to reach for you, I can almost feel you
You're nearly here and then

You disappear, you disappear
You disappear, you disappear, disappear

"Why should I feel sad
For what I never had
Nothing equals nothing"

Spoiler: Madonna - Gone, Music

Selling out
Is not my thing
Walk away
I won't be broken again
I'm not
I'm not what you think

Dream away your life
Someone else's dream
Nothing equals nothing

Letting go
Is not my thing
Walk away
Won't let it happen again
I'm not
I'm not very smart

Why should I feel sad
For what I never had
Nothing equals nothing

Turn to stone
Lose my faith
I'll be gone
Before it happens

Turn to stone
Lose my faith
I'll be gone
Before it happens

Selling out
Is not my thing
Walk away
I won't be broken again
I won't
I won't fall apart

Dream away your life
Dream away your dream
Nothing equals nothing

Turn to stone
Lose my faith
I'll be gone
Before it happens

Turn to stone (turn to stone)
Lose my faith (lose my faith)
I'll be gone
Before it happens

Turn to stone (turn to stone)
Lose my faith (lose my faith)
I'll be gone

Elton John & Ray Charles - Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word
(Genius Loves Company 2004 EMI Records Ltd)

What have I got to do to make you love me
What have I got to do to make you care
What do I do when lightning strikes me
And I wake to find that you're not there

It's sad, so sad
It's a sad, sad situation
And it's getting more and more absurd
It's sad, so sad
Why can't we talk it over
Oh it seems to me
That sorry seems to be the hardest word

Now this is gonna be a fun thread

Five For Fighting - 100 Years
"15, there's still time for you.
Time to buy and time to lose.
15, there's never a wish better than this.
When you only got 100 years to live."

Trapt - Still Frame
"Believe me, I'm just as lost as you."

Rise Against - Paper Wings
"Is this the life that you lead, or the life that's lead for you?
Will you take the road that's been laid out before you?
Will we cross paths somewhere else tonight?"

Rise Against - The Good Left Undone
"All because of you, I believe in angels.
Not the kind with wings, no not the kind with halos.
The kind that bring you home when home becomes a strange place.
I'll follow your voice. All you have to do is shout it out."

Now some funny ones

Green Day - Longview
"When masturbation's lost its fun, you're fucking lazy."

Blink-182 - Degenerate
"Don't like hesh, don't like rap. Kicked ol' Sally cause she's fat.
I'm a jerk, I'm a punk, took a shower cause I stunk.
Smoked a bong, killed a cat, had my nuts attacked by rats.
Dad got nude, I wore a thong, for a hobby I make bombs."

 

[blai]

Rise Against - Hero of War

She walked through bullets and haze
I asked her to stop
I begged her to stay
But she pressed on
So I lifted my gun
And I fired away

And the shells jumped through the smoke
And into the sand
That the blood now had soaked
She collapsed with a flag in her hand
A flag white as snow

A hero of war
Is that what they see
Just medals and scars
So damn proud of me
And I brought home that flag
Now it gathers dust
But it's a flag that I love
It's the only flag I trust​

 

[Evil3ye]

"Don’t you worry boy
Life will come and find you
You’re going to blow their minds
Show them all a thing or two"

Garbage - All the good in this life, Songs for Tibet: The Art of Peace

 

[Drmke]

NOFX - Drugs Are Good

"Drugs are good. They make you do things that you know you not should.
And when you do them people think that you're cool.
When you do them people think that you're cool."

Blai with Rise Against FTW!!!

Kiss From a Rose

I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray.
Ooh, the more I get of you
The stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom.
A light hits the gloom on the gray,

The Breaking of the Fellowship( In Dreams)

When the cold of winter comes
Starless night will cover day
In the veiling of the sun
We will walk in bitter rain

But in dreams
I can hear your name
And in dreams
We will meet again

When the seas and mountains fall
And we come, to end of days
In the dark I hear a call
Calling me there,
I will go there
And back again

 

[Farfalla]

I'd like to post something brazilian, but I don't know if I can translate without losing the poetry .-.

Desafinado Tom Jobim
When I'm about to sing, you won't let me
And always use the same complaint
You say that I untune, that I can't sing
You're so beautiful... but your beauty can be wrong
If you say that I untune, my love
Be aware that this is painful to me
Only privileged people has a hearing like yours
I only own the one God gave me
If you insist in classify
My behavior as anti-musical
I, although lying, has to argue
That this is Bossa Nova
This is very natural
What you don't know
And don't even sense
Is that the tuneless also has a heart
I took your picture at my RolleyFlex
And it revealed your enormous ingratitude
But you only can't talk like this about my love
It's the biggest you will ever find
You and your music forgot the substantial
That in the chest of a tuneless
Deep in the chest of a tuneless, beats silent
In the chest of a tuneless also beats a heart​

Prooreader needed xP

 

[Pirulito]

Spoiler: Smashing Pumpkins - Muzzle

I fear that i am ordinary, just like everyone
To lie here and die among the sorrows
Adrift among the days
For everything i ever said
And everything i've ever done is gone and dead
As all things must surely have to end
And great loves will one day have to part
I know that i am meant for this world
My life has been extraordinary
Blessed and cursed and won
Time heals but i'm forever broken
By and by the way...
Have you ever heard the words
I'm singing in these songs?
It's for the girl i've loved all along
Can a taste of love be so wrong
As all things must surely have to end
And great loves will one day have to part
I know that i am meant for this world
And in my mind as i was floating
Far above the clouds
Some children laughed i'd fall for certain
For thinking that i'd last forever
But i knew exactly where i was
And i knew the meaning of it all
And i knew the distance to the sun
And i knew the echo that is love
And i knew the secrets in your spires
And i knew the emptiness of youth
And i knew the solitude of heart
And i knew the murmurs of the soul
And the world is drawn into your hands
And the world is etched upon your heart
And the world so hard to understand
Is the world your can't live without
And i knew the silence of the world

 

[Evil3ye]

"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 have faded 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."

Oasis - Stop Crying Your Heart Out, Heathen Chemistry

 

[vintagemistakes]

Where do bad folks go when they die?
They don't go to heaven where the angels fly
They go to a lake of fire and fry
Won't see them again 'till the 4th of July
Meat Puppets : Lake of Fire

 

[Totinona]

English translation
Park Hyo-shin - Like Me (나처럼)
I wonder if you're ok now
I wonder if you think of me
Even though I know its no use now
I keep wanting and wanting again

Like me, just like me who still loves you
Just like me who cant leave you
I hope you will have a little bit of me remaing in your heart
I hope you will...

That day when I let you go
I didnt even show you my tears when I turned back
because all of this was for you
But then again,

Like me, just like me who still loves you
Just like me who cant change,
I hope you will have a little bit of me remaining in your heart
I hope you will...

I love you like a fat kid love cake
--21 Questions (50 Cent)

We've got white-collar people trying to grab our style
Saying we're too nasty and we're 2 Live
Corrupted politicians playing games
Bringing us down to boost their fame
They must be joking thinking we will fall
But they're like flies movin' the wall
We stand tall from beginning to end
With the help from fans and all our friends
Freedom of speech will never die
For us to help, our ancestors died
Don't keep thinking that we will quit
We'll always stand and never sit
We're 2 live, 2 black, 2 strong
Doing the right thing, and not the wrong
So listen up, y'all, to what we say
We won't be banned in the U.S.A.!
--Banned in the USA (2 Live Crew)

Take a look to the sky just before you die
It's the last time you will
--For Whom the Bell Tolls (Metallica)

Did it excite you to take somebody's life
Did you think about the people
Who stay behind and cry about it
The coach is at the platform
Come along and step inside now
'Cause it's time to pay the piper
Got you ticket and your ridin' tonight
--Bloody Train (Siam Shade)

Rain on the scarecrow, blood on the plow
This land fed a nation, this land made me proud
And, son, I'm just sorry they're just memories for you now
--Rain on the Scarecrow (John Mellencamp)

The photograph reflects,
Every streetlight a reminder
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night, deserves a quiet night
--Nightswimming (REM)

Did you hear the '59 Sound coming through on grandmother's radio?
Did you hear the rattling chains in the hospital walls?
Did you hear the old gospel choir when they came to carry you over?
Did you hear your favorite song one last time?
--The '59 Sound (the Gaslight Anthem)

Poor man wanna be rich
Rich man wanna be a king
And a king ain't satisfied till he rules everything
--Badlands

It ain't no sin to be glad you're alive
--Badlands

Together Wendy we'll live with the sadness
I'll love you with all the madness in my soul
Someday girl I don't know when
we're gonna get to that place
Where we really want to go
and we'll walk in the sun
But till then tramps like us
baby we were born to run
--Born to Run

Don't make no difference what nobody says
Ain't nobody like to be alone
--Hungry Heart

Now there's a fire down below
But it's comin' up here
So leave everything you know
And carry only what you fear
On the road the sun is sinkin' low
There's bodies hangin' in the trees
This is what will be, this is what will be
--Magic

Outside the street's on fire in a real death waltz
Between flesh and what's fantasy and the poets down here
Don't write nothing at all, they just stand back and let it all be
And in the quick of the night they reach for their moment
And try to make an honest stand but they wind up wounded, not even dead
Tonight in Jungleland
--Jungleland

It's a town full of losers
And I'm pulling out of here to win.
--Thunder Road

When I die I don't want no part of heaven
I would not do heavens work well
I pray the devil comes and takes me
To stand in the fiery furnaces of hell
--Youngstown

Thank you all for sharing and participating in this new thread. Why not try fantasy band???


"Unemployment at a record highs
People coming, people going, people born to die
Don't ask me, because I don't know why
But it's like that, and that's the way it is"

"Money is the key to end all your woes
Your ups, your downs, your highs and your lows
Won't you tell me the last time that love bought you clothes?
It's like that, and that's the way it is" - Run DMC - It's Like That

"Pure at heart because I deal with the mind
That's why I compose these verses
Audible worlds my thoughts are now universes
Written on these pages is the ageless
wisdom of the sages, ignorance is contagious
So I hope you keep your focus
There's no hocus-pocus, in the end, it's just us
Devil got brother killin brother, it's insane
Goin out like Abel and Cain
Wisen up and use your brain
There'll be no limit, to the things that you can gain
In positivity, balance it with negativity
Until then, ain't the devil happy" - Jeru Tha Damaja - Ain't The Devil Happy

"Reunited, double LP, we're all excited
Struck a match to the underground, industry ignited
from metaphorical parables to fertilize the Earth
Wicked n****z come, try to burglarize the turf
Scattin off soft-ass beats them n****z rap happily
Tragically, that style, deter-iate, rapidly
Uncompleted missions, throwin your best known compositions
You couldn't add it up, if you mastered addition" - GZA from Wu Tang Clan - Reunited

Coffey Anderson - Umbrella (Christ Mix)

I gave you my heart
In exchange for a brand new start
Lord then you made me clean
And you set me apart

You see I was in the dark
But you're the bright and morning star
Now with your amazing grace
You keep a smile upon my face

Chorus:
Because
When the son die He didn't die forever
Put Him in a tomb and three days later
Died on a cross and rose again
Dip me in His blood and washed away my sins, sins sins, eh eh
Thank the Lord I'm born again, ain ain ain... yeah~

Rap:
Look, her daddy been gone, her momma left when she was seven
Stuck a relative she didn't know was there a heaven
Wish I could grow wings and fly away from this place
That's what she told me but wiping tears from my face

But everytime you cry the Lord feels your pain
So put a fist in the air, you're ready for change
The race is not given to the swift or to the strong
You gotta endure I'm telling you to hold on​

 

[Drmke]

Bad Religion - Sorrow
Father can you hear me?
How have I let you down?
I curse the day that I was born.
And all the sorrow in this world.

Let me take you too the herding ground.
Where all good men are trampled down.
Just too settle a bet that could not be won.
Between a prideful father and his son.

Will you guide me now for I can't see.
A reason for this suffering and this long misery.
What if every living soul could be upright and strong?
Well then I do imagine

There will be (sorrow)
Yeah there will be (sorrow)
And there will be sorrow no more.

When all all soldiers lay their weapons down.
Or when all kings and all queens relinquish their crowns.
Or when the only true messiah rescues us from ourselves.
Its easy to imagine

There will be (sorrow)
Yeah there will be (sorrow)
And there will be sorrow no more.​

crappop lyrics actually but damn catchy IMO ;>
