Favourite Song Lyrics

[Project G]

All my favourite lyrics are HIM songs

[Chris]

Naughty, naughty and naughty:

Pull Up to the Bumper

"Now in the parking lot garage,
I found a proper place,
Just follow all the written rules,
You'll fit into the space.

Pull up to my bumper baby,
In your long black limosine,
Pull up to my bumper baby,
And drive it in between.


Pull up, to it, don't drive, through it,
Back it, up twice, now that, fit's nice.

Operate around the clock,
Slow it if you come in?
I've got lot's of space for everyone,
One for you my friend?

My lines are short I'll fix you up
so won't you please come on,
Shiny sleek machine you wheeled,
It I've got to blow your horn."

[jrgen]

I really like the lyrics of Eisregen as they are so sick and controversial.
I especially like how it shows how much the music matters to how you interpret the lyrics.
The most disgusting lyrics can become beautiful together with the right music.
Although I doubt posting one of their lyrics here would be very apropriate.

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - dark and funny!

Abbatoir Blues

The sun is high up in the sky and I’m in my car
Drifting down into the abattoir
Do you see what I see, dear?
The air grows heavy. I listen to your breath
Entwined together in this culture of death
Do you see what I see, dear?
Slide on over here, let me give you a squeeze
To avert this unholy evolutionary trajectory
Can you hear what I hear, babe?
Does it make you feel afraid?
Everything’s dissolving, babe, according to plan
The sky is on fire, the dead are heaped across the land
I went to bed last night and my moral code got jammed
I woke up this morning with a Frappucino in my hand
I kissed you once. I kissed you again
My heart it tumbled like the stock exchange
Do you feel what I feel, dear?
Mass extinction, darling, hypocrisy
These things are not good for me
Do you see what I see, dear?
The line the God throws down to you and me
Makes a pleasing geometry
Shall we leave this place now, dear?
Is there someway out of here?
I wake with the sparrows and I hurry off to work
The need for validation, babe, gone completely berserk
I wanted to be your Superman but I turned out such a jerk
I got the abattoir blues
I got the abattoir blues
I got the abattoir blues
Right down to my shoes

[Pouring Rain]

Um, I like Avril songs, but I don't feel like typing Forgotten but I will anyway

Ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah

I'm giving up on everything
Because you messed me up
Don't know how much you
Screwed it up
You never listened
That's just too bad

Because I'm moving on
I won't forget
You were one that was wrong
I know I need to step up
and be strong
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Chorus
Have you forgotten
Everything that I wanted
Do you forget it now
You never got to
Do you get it now
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah

Gotta get away
There's no point thinking about yesterday
It's too late now
It won't ever be the same
We're so different now
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Chorus

I know I wanna run away
I know I wanna run away
Run away
If only I could run away
If only I could run away
Run away
I told you what I wanted
I told you what I wanted
What I wanted
But I was forgotten
I won't be forgotten
Never again

Chorus (2x)

Forgotten
Yeah yeah yeah
Forgotten
Yeah yeah yeah

HIM - your sweet 666

[Mercen-X]

Our Lady Peace - I know

(i haven't heard it in awhile, don't recall the first line)
We watch the red oaks glow, I watch you float away
Out here in the atmosphere, garbage and city lights
You're gonna save our tired souls, you're gonna save our lives

And all we are is oh so far
You're fallin' back to me,
the star that can see and
I know you're out there, somewhere out there
You're fallin' out of reach,
defyin' gravity and
I know you're out there, somwhere out there

(i don't remember the first line here either)
I miss your purple hair, I miss the way you taste
Now you're lookin' down on me from your getaway
I'm hopin' that you don't burn out or fade away

And all we are is oh so far
You're fallin' back to me,
the star that can see and
I know you're out there, somewhere out there
You're fallin' out of reach,
defyin' gravity and
I know you're out there, somwhere out there

[Cuchulainn]

Roosevelt Franklin - Insomnia 411

You find better lyrics on any song than that.

[SeeDRankLou]

Yo, I'll tell ya what I want
What I really really want
So tell me what you want
What you really really want
I'll tell ya what I want
What I really really want
So tell me....
[/joking]

Hmmm...lyrics....I'd have to say my favorite is Welcome to the Jungle by Guns 'n Roses.

[BackRoomKid]

I'm timeless like a broken watch,
I make money like Fred Astaire.

I see that you've come to resist me,I'm a pitbull in time.
Your pretense is not what restricts me,
It's the circles inside.
The anatomy of kisses and a teacher who tries,
Who knows how we'll disappear.
Would like to be my missus,
And in future with child?
You know that we can't get back from here.
But we can get away.

Baby don't you try to fight me.
Baby won't you try to fight?
Lady don't you try to find me.
Baby, it will be all right.

Along the way...
Tears drown in the wake of delight.
There's nothing like this built today.
You'll never see a finer ship in your life.
We sail today...
Tears drown in the wake of delight.
There's nothing like this built today...
You'll never see a finer ship,
Or receive a better tip in your life.

I am the scavenger...
Between the sheets of union.
Lately I can't tell for sure,
whether machines turn anyone.
I am the scavenger...
Between the sheets of union.
Lately I can't tell for sure,
If the machines turn anyone.

Lady don't you try to find me.
Lady don't you try to fight.
Lady don't you try to find me.
Baby it will be all right.

We sail today...
Tears drown in the wake of delight.
There's nothing like this built today.
You'll never see a finer ship in your life.
Along the way...
The sea will crowd us with lovers at night.
There's nothing like this built today.
You'll never see a finer ship,
Or receive a better tip in your life.

I see that you've come to resist me...
I'm a pitbull in time.

White Goddess, Red Goddess,
Black temptress of the sea, you treat me right.

Black Goddess, red Goddess,
White temptress of the sea, you treat me right.

Oh my love we are sailing to Norway.
Oh my love we're leaving tonight

[Jack]

I like The Smashing Pumpkin's lyrics for their mystical, emotions but I have to admit... Ash's are cooler.

[Project G]

HIM - your sweet 666

I prefer razorblade kiss

[Shoeberto]

Radiohead - No Suprises


It requires both the music and lyrics for full appreciation.

How To Disappear Completely also has some really good lyrics.

[sephiroth JR]

the lyrics for HIM-the funeral of hearts

[Polaris]

Missing - Evanescence

Please, please forgive me,
But I won’t be home again.
Maybe someday you’ll have woke up,
And, barely conscious, you’ll say to no one:
Isn’t something missing?

You won’t cry for my absence, I know -
You forgot me long ago.
Am I that unimportant...?
Am I so insignificant...?
Isn’t something missing?
Isn’t someone missing me?

[chorus]
Even though I’d be sacrificed,
You won’t try for me, not now.
Though I’d die to know you love me,
I’m all alone.
Isn’t someone missing me?

Please, please forgive me,
But I won’t be home again.
I know what you do to yourself,
Shudder deep and cry out:
Isn’t something missing?
Isn’t someone missing me?

[chorus]

And if I bleed, I’ll bleed,
Knowing you don’t care.
And if I sleep just to dream of you
And wake without you there,
Isn’t something missing?
Isn’t something...

[chorus]

3 doors down - Away from the Sun

It's down to this
I've got to make this life make sense
Can anyone do what I've done
I missed life
I missed the colours of the world
Can anyone go where I am

'Cause now again I've found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines into the darkest place
I'm so far down, away from the sun again
Away from the sun again

I'm over this
I'm tired of living in the dark
Can anyone see me down here
The feeling's gone
There's nothing left to lift me up
Back into the world I've known

'Cause now again I've found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines into the darkest place
I'm so far down, away from the sun
That shines the life away from me
To find my way back into the arms
That care about the ones like me
I'm so far down, away from the sun again

It's down to this
I've got to make this life make sense
And now I can't do what I've done

And now again I've found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines the life away from me

'Cause now again I've found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines into the darkest place
I'm so far down, away from the sun
That shines the life away from me
To find my way back into the arms
That care about the ones like me
I'm so far down, away from the sun again

Don't leave home - Dido

Like a ghost don't need a key
Your best friend I've come to be
Please don't think of getting up for me
You don't even need to speak
When I've been here for just one day
You'll already miss me if I go away
So close the blinds and shut the door
You won't need other friends anymore

Oh don't leave home, oh don't leave home

If you're cold I'll keep you warm
If you're low just hold on
Cause I will be your safety
Oh don't leave home

And I arrived when you were weak
I'll make you weaker, weaker still
Now all your love you give to me

When your heart is all I need

Oh don't leave home, oh don't leave home

If you're cold I'll keep you warm
If you're low just hold on
Cause I will be your safety
Oh don't leave home

Oh how quiet, quiet the world can be
When it's just you and little me
Everything is clear and everything is new
So you won't be leaving will you

Oh don't leave home, oh don't leave home

If you're cold I'll keep you warm
If you're low just hold on
Cause I will be your safety
Oh don't leave home
