Life For Rent by Dido

I haven't really ever found a place that I call home
I never stick around quite long enough to make it
I apologize that once again I'm not in love
But it's not as if I mind
that your heart ain't exactly breaking

It's just a thought, only a thought

But if my life is for rent and I don't lean to buy
Well I deserve nothing more than I get
Cos nothing I have is truly mine

I've always thought
that I would love to live by the sea
To travel the world alone

and live my life more simply
I have no idea what's happened to that dream
Cos there's really nothing left here to stop me

It's just a thought, only a thought

But if my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy
Well I deserve nothing more than I get
Cos nothing I have is truly mine

While my heart is a shield and I won't let it down
While I am so afraid to fail so I won't even try
Well how can I say I'm alive

If my life is for rent...

Some lyrics I noticed today, havn't heard them for a long time. Reminded me of my life sort of... They're by Ebba Grön, which was for swedish punk was Beatles was for popular music in general, sort of.

Uppgång och Fall by Ebba Grön

Jag har allt jag behöver,
tar en kölapp & väntar
på sånt som blir över.
Jag har dom rätta tabletterna.
Min mamma är snäll,
hon har alla receptena.

Jag lever i en kuvös, ni vet.
Mitt liv är en skyddad verkstad
för meningslöshet.
Mitt liv är en välfärdsvals.
Jag har allt men
jag har ingenting alls.

Jag vill se,
jag vill se,
jag vill se,
jag vill se
ert uppgång & fall.

Jag var så tom & konstig förr.
Det är borta med vinden sen
jag låste min dörr.
Här har jag allt som behagar,
På TV ser jag barn
med uppsvällda magar.

Jag vill se, jag vill se
ert uppgång & fall.

Jag ska skratta när det faller sönder,
inga tårar ska fukta mina torra kinder.
Inga svarta kläder, inget flor,
jag ska inte bära svart slips
& svarta skor.

Jag vill se, jag vill se,
jag vill se, jag vill se
ert uppgång & fall...

In English (translated by me)

I've got all I need
Take a queuepatch and whait
For stuff that gets left over
I've got the right pills
My mother is kind,
she's got all the recipes

I'm living in an incubator, you know
My life is a hidden workshop
for meaninglessness.
My life is a wellfare waltz.
I've got it all but
I've got nothing at all

I want to see,
I want to see,
I want to see,
I want to see,
Your rise and fall.

I used to be so empty and weird.
It's gone with the wind now
that I lock my door.
Here I've got everything that pleases.
On TV I se children
with overswelled bellies

I want to see,
Your rise and fall

I will laught when it breaks,
No tears shall wet my dry cheeks.
No black clothes, no gauze,
I shall not wear a black tie,
and black shoes

I want to see,
Your rise and fall...

- "Back To The Rivers Of Belief. C: The Rivers Of Belief"- ENIGMA

Take me back to the rivers of belief
Take me back to the rivers of belief, my friend.

I look inside my heart
I look inside my soul
I promise you
I will return.

And when the Lamb
Opened the seventh seal
Silence covered the sky.

Take me back to the rivers of belief
Take me back to the rivers of belief, my friend
I look inside my heart
I look inside my soul
I'm reaching out for you
Let's hope one day
We'll rest in peace
On my rivers of belief.

Specially for Lucretia and Janggut

J'ai demandé à la lune
Paroles: Mickaël Furnon
-----------------------------------------------
J’ai demandé à la lune
Et le soleil ne le sait pas
Je lui ai montré mes brûlures
Et la lune s’est moquée de moi
Et comme le ciel n’avait pas fière allure
Et que je ne guérissais pas
Je me suis dit quelle infortune
Et la lune s’est moquée de moi

J’ai demandé à la lune
Si tu voulais encore de moi
Elle m’a dit "j’ai pas l’habitude
De m’occuper des cas comme ça"
Et toi et moi
On était tellement sûr
Et on se disait quelques fois
Que c’était juste une aventure
Et que ça ne durerait pas

Je n’ai pas grand chose à te dire
Et pas grand chose pour te faire rire
Car j’imagine toujours le pire
Et le meilleur me fait souffrir

J’ai demandé à la lune
Si tu voulais encore de moi
Elle m’a dit "j’ai pas l’habitude
De m’occuper des cas comme ça"
Et toi et moi
On était tellement sûr
Et on se disait quelques fois
Que c’était juste une aventure
Et que ça ne durerait pas

Oh Barta! Thank you so much!

Hands Across The Ocean ~ The Mission

Every time I think of you it's like the last beat of my heart
The memory of leaving you is tearing me apart
No waves no tears no backward glance
But I'll always hold you dear
Never regret but I'll never forget
'Cos there's not enough heaven here

Hands across the ocean, reaching out for you
Across the waves, across the water
Hands, across the ocean

And every time I'm missing you I just can't let it show
And every time I want to cry I just can't let it go
all wine and song and masquerade and refuge holds me dear
Ribbons and lace and daisy chains
But there's not enough heaven here

Hands across the ocean, reaching out for you
Across the waves, across the water, reaching out for you
Hands across the ocean, reaching out for you
Across the waves, across the water
Hands, across the ocean

Bangles beads and lipstick games
And comfort holds me dear
Velvet and lace and perfumed sheets
But there's not enough heaven
Not enough heaven here

Hands across the ocean, reaching out for you
Across the waves, across the water, reaching out for you
Hands across the ocean, reaching out for you
Across the waves, across the water
Hands, across the ocean

Another Day with Cure (might have posted it before...)

The sun rises slowly
On another day
The eastern sky grows cold
Winter in water colours
Shades of grey

Something
Something holds me hypnotized...

I stare at the window
Stare at the window
Waiting for the day to go
Winter in water colours
Shades of grey

Closedown with Cure

I'm running out of time
I'm out of step and closing down
And never sleep for wanting hours
The empty hours of greed
And uselessly
Always the need
To feel again the real belief
Of something more than mockery
If only I could fill my heart with love

Fuel - Falls on me

I've seen you hanging round
This darkness where I'm bound
And this black hole I've dug for me
And silently within
With hands touching skin
Shock breaks my disease
And I can breathe

And all of your weight
All you dream
Falls on me, it falls on me
And your beautidul sky
The light you bring
Falls on me, it falls on me

Your faith like the pain
It draws me in again
She washes all my wounds for me
The darkness in my veins
I never could explain
And I wonder if you ever see
Will you still believe?

And all of your weight
All you dream
Falls on me, it falls on me
And your beautiful sky
The light you bring
Falls on me, it falls on me

Am I that strong?
To carry on
I might save my life
I might save my love
Could you save me?

(2x)
And all of your weight
All you dream
Falls on me, it falls on me
And your beautiful sky
The light you bring
Falls on me, it falls on me

Orinoco Flow by Enya

let me sail, let me sail, let the orinoco flow,
let me reach, let me beach on the shores of Tripoli.
let me sail, let me sail, let me crash upon your shore,
let me reach, let me beach far beyond the Yellow Sea.

from Bissau to Palau - in the shade of Avalon,
from Fiji to Tiree and the Isles of Ebony,
from Peru to Cebu hear the power of Babylon,
from Bali to Cali - far beneath the Coral Sea.

from the North to the South, Ebudae into Khartoum,
from the deep sea of Clouds to the island of the moon,
carry me on the waves to the lands I've never been,
carry me on the waves to the lands I've never seen.

we can sail, we can sail...
we can steer, we can near with Rob Dickins at the wheel,
we can sigh, say goodbye Ross and his dependencies
we can sail, we can sail...

TIME

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way

Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
And you are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it's sinking
And racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death

Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in a quiet desperation is the English way
The time is gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say

The Power of Goodbye by Madonna

Your heart is not open so I must go
The spell has been broken I loved you so
Freedom comes when you learn to let go
Creation comes when you learn to say no

You were my lesson I had to learn
I was your fortress you had to burn
Pain is a warning that something's wrong
I pray to God that it won't be long

Walk away
There's nothing left to try
There's no place left to hide
There's no greater power than the power of good-bye

Your heart is not open so I must go
The spell has been broken I loved you so
You were my lesson I had to learn
I was your fortress

There's nothing left to lose
There's no more heart to bruise
There's no greater power than the power of good-bye

Learn to say good-bye
I yearn to say good-bye

There's nothing left to try
There's no more places to hide
There's no greater power than the power of good-bye
There's nothing left to lose
There's no more heart to bruise
There's no greater power than the power of good-bye <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />

This is just my way of telling you, that I will miss you, even if it's only for a week or so. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/puppyeyes.gif" alt="" />

Leonard Cohen

Stories Of The Street

The stories of the street are mine,the Spanish voices laugh.
The Cadillacs go creeping now through the night and the poison gas,
and I lean from my window sill in this old hotel I chose,
yes one hand on my suicide, one hand on the rose.
I know you've heard it's over now and war must surely come,
the cities they are broke in half and the middle men are gone.
But let me ask you one more time, O children of the dusk,
All these hunters who are shrieking now oh do they speak for us?

And where do all these highways go, now that we are free?
Why are the armies marching still that were coming home to me?
O lady with your legs so fine O stranger at your wheel,
You are locked into your suffering and your pleasures are the seal.

The age of lust is giving birth, and both the parents ask
the nurse to tell them fairy tales on both sides of the glass.
And now the infant with his cord is hauled in like a kite,
and one eye filled with blueprints, one eye filled with night.

O come with me my little one, we will find that farm
and grow us grass and apples there and keep all the animals warm.
And if by chance I wake at night and I ask you who I am,
O take me to the slaughterhouse, I will wait there with the lamb.

With one hand on the hexagram and one hand on the girl
I balance on a wishing well that all men call the world.
We are so small between the stars, so large against the sky,
and lost among the subway crowds I try to catch your eye.

Please guys remove the lyrics of Enya's songs. It is not that I do not like her. In fact I just love her, but in her site is forbidden to copy the lyrics. I am afraid that larian's will have troubles with that. That is why I have never posted lyrics of Enya's songs in here.

Aerials --- by System of a Down

I find the mysterious tune of this song really fun to listen to. Also, I just like the psyche in the lyrics... I don't know how to word it really... its just intreaguing. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> If you look up the meaning of the song, I'm sure you wouldn't have seen it comming. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

"Life is a waterfall,
We're one in the river,
And one again after the fall.

Swimming through the void
We hear the word,
We lost ourselves,
But we find it all?

Cause we are the ones that want to play,
Always want to go,
But you never want to stay,

And we are the ones that want to chose,
Always want to play,
But you never want to lose.

Aerials, in the sky,
When you lose small mind,
You free your life.

Life is a waterfall,
We drink from the river,
Then we turn around and put up our walls.

Swimming through the void
We hear the word,
We lost ourselves,
But we find it all?

Cause we are the ones that want to play,
Always want to go,
But you never want to stay,

And we are the ones that want to chose,
Always want to play,
But you never want to lose.

Aerials, in the sky,
When you lose small mind,
You free your life.
Aerials, so up high,
When you free your eyes,
Eternal prize.
Aerials, in the sky,
When you lose small mind,
You free your life.
Aerials, so up high,
When you free your eyes,
Eternal prize. "

Now I'll bring those Fields of the Nephilim lyrics <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />:

Endemoniada by Fields of the Nephilim


So let it feel... Unreal
When I fall asleep at the wheel
Think about this... If looks could kill

Such a thrill... The way I feel
Now I'm falling asleep at the wheel
And I'm dreaming of the kill

We dream of familiar places here
We dream of familiar faces

Do you want a display
Just stand in my way
If you want a display
Your love in that way... Now get out

Think about this...

Well I've seen... With old eyes
And every time I turn around another dies

Think about this... If looks could kill

Vision's Black, I go to war sometimes
When I'm walking on my own
We dream of familiar places
Vision's black, I go to war sometimes
When I'm walking on my own
We dream of familiar places
And I'm dreaming
We dream of familiar things here (My heart beats, my heart beats)
We dream of familiar places
And I'm dreaming...
We dream of familiar things here (My heart beats, my heart beats)
We dream of familiar places
Stop!

Last Exit for the Lost by Fields of the Nephilim


Would you pay life's pleasures to see me
Does it hurt for I want you to remain
I run your hair through in another decade
Summerland holds me in sumerian haze

Pain in places where the lovers mourn
Arranging the play things up and down the hall

Forever remain for every day
My honour remains
Forever remain

Between the spaces along the wall
Appearing faces that disappear at dawn
We're getting closer I can see the door
Closer and closer Kthulhu calls

Forever remain
Forever remain

You'll seek it it'll take a while
You'll seek this if it's a thousand miles
Take what fate brings eternal and desire
I'll change those faces then I take their smile

We're getting close to you I can see the door
Closer and closer or is it there at all

Forever remain
Forever remain

This could be my last regress
Last exit for the lost
This could be my last regress
Last exit for the lost
This could be my last regress
Precious for the lost
Are we getting close now? Closer and closer
Last exit for the lost!
Are we getting close now? Closer and closer
Last exit for the lost!

And etc.

Masquerade by Laura

We’ve been living in a world, our heads held down, pretending that we are blind.
Iniquity is a fact and if we don’t react, it stays in our unconscious mind.
We are told so many lies, we hear so many cries, but some of us still deny.
One diplomatic code, we are on a one-way road, nobody turns around to defy.
Why are we told how to live our lives, tell me?
Everybody deserves to be free.

It’s all a masquerade, this world we live in.
It’s all part of the game, to hide all our sins.
It’s all a big parade.
These voices we’re hearing make us feel mired.
Oh, it’s all a masquerade
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah

We’ve been dying in a world, for nothing or for gold. Who can give the answers now?
Who can tell us why some people have to starve and some people are being crowned.
The globe is disarrayed, drives the “Love” away and leaves us like we’re outdone.
We need to disabuse those who want to choose and never stop but carry on.
Why do we only see the things we want to see?
Those in need got to be freed.

Chorus …

All, all that we see all that we feel is the “one” side we are shown.
We are trying, we are fighting for a cause that’s still unknown.
All of our dreams, all of our screams, show that we want to be heard.
With our voices, with our choices, we can all stand up and say “no”.

It’s all a masquerade, this world we live in.
It’s all part of the game, to hide all our sins.
It’s all a big parade.
These voices we’re hearing make us feel mired. (x2)

Oh it’s all a masquerade
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
Oh it’s all a masquerade
Yeah Yeah

"Nine Million Bicycles" by KATIE MELUA

There are nine million bicycles in Beijing
That's a fact,
It's a thing we can't deny
Like the fact that I will love you till I die.

We are twelve billion light years from the edge,
That's a guess,
No-one can ever say it's true
But I know that I will always be with you.

I'm warmed by the fire of your love everyday
So don't call me a liar,
Just believe everything that I say

There are six BILLION people in the world
More or less
and it makes me feel quite small
But you're the one I love the most of all

[INTERLUDE]
We're high on the wire
With the world in our sight
And I'll never tire,
Of the love that you give me every night

There are nine million bicycles in Beijing
That's a Fact,
it's a thing we can't deny
Like the fact that I will love you till I die

And there are nine million bicycles in Beijing
And you know that I will love you till I die!

Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over

I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
But I'm too young to worry
These streets we travel on will undergo our same lost past

I found you here, now please just stay for a while
I can move on with you around
I hand you my mortal life, but will it be forever?
I'd do anything for a smile, holding you 'til our time is done
We both know the day will come, but I don't want to leave you

I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
But I'm too young to worry
(a melody, a memory, or just one picture)

Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over

Newborn life replacing all of us, changing this fable we live in
No longer needed here so where do we go?
Will you take a journey tonight, follow me past the walls of death?
But girl, what if there is no eternal life?

I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
But I'm too young to worry
(a melody, a memory, or just one picture)

Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
Its empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over
Trials in life, questions of us existing here
Don't wanna die alone without you here
Please tell me what we have is real

So, what if I never hold you, yeah, or kiss your lips again? Whooooah
So I never want to leave you and the memories of us to see
I beg don't leave me

Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
Its empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over
Trials in life, questions of us existing here
Don't wanna die alone without you here
Please tell me what we have is real

(Silence you lost me, no chance for one more day)
I stand here alone
Falling away from you, no chance to get back home

Hotel California by the Eagles

On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway;
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself,
'This could be Heaven and this could be Hell'
Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor,
I thought I heard them say...

Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year, you can find it here

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes Bends
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys that she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget

So I called up the Captain,
'Please bring me my wine'
He said, 'We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine'
And still those voices are calling from far away,
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say...

Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
They livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise, bring your alibis

Mirrors on the ceiling,
The pink champagne on ice
And she said 'We are all just prisoners here, of our own device'
And in their master's chambers,
They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives,
But they just can't kill the beast

Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
'Relax,' said the night man,
'We are programmed to receive.
You can check out any time you like,
but you can never leave!'
