"Yer favourite lyrics"

Yes, I've had a skin full and am feeling mightily sentimental and empathic, but let's have your favourite songs, or just parts of the lyrics that speak to you .....

Okey dokey.

*sways with drunken-ness*

"HIC"

Phil Collins

Damn good song, though. Incredibly fast as well, seeing that it only lasts just over three minutes.

Sounds like the most clichéd set of lyrics ever.

That's Metallica for you.

Metallica- Motorbreath
(James Hetfield)

Living and dying, laughing and crying
Once you have seen it you will never be the same
Life in the fast lane is just how it seems
Hard and it's dirty, dirty and mean

MotorBreath
Its how I live my life
I can't take it, any other way
MotorBreath
The sign of living fast
It is going to,
take your breath away

Don't stop for nothing its full speed
or nothing
I am taking down you know whatever is
in my way
Getting your kicks as your shooting the line
Sending the shivers up and down my spine

MotorBreath
Its how I live my life
I can't take it, any other way
MotorBreath
The sign of living fast
It is going to
Take your breath away

Those people who tell you not to take chances
They are all missing on what life's about
You only live once so take hold of the chance
Don't end up like others the same song and dance

MotorBreath
Its how I live my life
I can't take it, any other way
MoterBreath
The sign of living fast
It is going to
Take your breath away

MotorBreath

They love cake as it's dirty - they shouldn't have it, their mothers told them no more', but it just keeps them coming back.

And the fact they have worms.

But a fat kid loves cake for all the wrong reasons.

I love you like a fat kid loves cake

"Overwhelming" by Everclear

It can come from out of nowhere
Hit you when you're safe and warm
Take it easy my star
Your time is gonna come
Your time is gonna come

Yeah you've got those crazy blue eyes
Yeah you've got those crazy blues
All those pretty smiles
I can see them laughing at you
Your time is gonna come
Your time is gonna come

I don't wanna be your punching bag
Your complacent little princess
All tragic and sad
I'm not gonna let you overwhelm me anymore
No not anymore

Yeah you say you've got this bad thing
Yeah you say you've got it bad
You have broken every heart
Of every friend you've ever had
Someday the time will come
When all your friends just go away

I wonder why I stick around
Sometimes I wish you would leave
You say you'll love me forever
Then you spit on me
Your time is gonna come
I say your time is gonna come

I don't wanna be your whipping boy
Your pathetic little loser
Someone you can ignore
I'm not gonna let you overwhelm me anymore

I'm not gonna let you hurt me anymore
I'm not gonna let you hit me anymore
I'm not gonna let you kick me anymore
I will not let you overwhelm me anymore
I will not let you overwhelm me anymore
I will not let you overwhelm me anymore
I will not let you overwhelm me anymore
I will not let you overwhelm me anymore

It can come from out of nowhere

I don't wanna be your simple saving grace
Just another little victim with a happy face
Someday
Somebody's gonna come
I hope they do this to you
I'm not gonna let you overwhelm me
I will not let you hurt me anymore

No I will not let you hurt me anymore
I will not let you hit me anymore
I will not let you twist me anymore
No I will not let you turn me inside out

Dream Theater - Hono(u)r Thy Father

We're taught unconditional love
That blood is thicker than water
That a parent's world would revolve
Always around their son or their daughter

You pretend I was your own
And even believed that you loved me
But were always threatened by some
Invisible blood line that only you could see

You took advantage of an outreached hand
And twisted it to meet your every need
''Gimme time to re-charge my batteries,
I'll see her when she's older and I'll bounce her on my knee''

Well listen to me you ungrateful fool
Her comes a dose of reality
You'll go to your grave a sad and lonely man
The door is now closed on your pathetic little plan

On and on and on and on it goes
It's so easy to run away with nothing in tow

How can you ever sleep a wink at night
Pretending that everything is alright
And have the nerve to blame this mess on me

Never in my life have I seen someone
So Ignorant to the damage he has done
You're the rotted root in the family tree

I tried your 4 bill therapy
I tried to make amends
But nothing could lure you out of your selfish shell again
Expecting everyone to bow and kiss your feet
Don't you see respect is not a one way street
Blaming everyone for all that you've done wrong
I'll get my peace of mind when you hear this song

On and on and on and on it goes
And with every passing day true colors show

How can you ever sleep a wink at night
Pretending that everything is alright
And have the balls to blame this mess on me

Never in my life have I seen someone
Oblivious to the damage he has done
You're the rotted root in the family tree

Watch where you walk
Don't you dare cross the crooked step
Watch the way you talk
Don't cross the crooked step

On and on and on and on it goes
Chauvinistic, heartless, selfish, cold

How can you ever sleep a wink at night
Pretending that everything is alright
And have the balls to blame this s*** on me

Never in my life have I seen someone
So f****** blind to the damage he has done
You're the rotted root in the family tree

And: Dream Theater - As I am



Don't
Tell me what's in
Tell me how to write
Don't tell me how to win
This fight
Isn't your life
It isn't your right
To take the only thing that's
Mine

Proven over time
It's over your head
Don't try to read between the
Lines
Are clearly defined
Never lose sight of
Something you believe in

Taking in the view from the outside
Feeling like the underdog
Watching through the window I'm on the outside
Living like the underdog

I've been trying to justify you
In the end I will just defy you

To those who understand, I extend my hand
To the doubtful I demand, take me as I am
Not under your command, I know where I stand
I won't change to fit your man, Take me as I am

As I am

Still
Running uphill
Swimming against the current
I wish I weren't so
F*****
Feels like I'm stuck
Lost in a sea of mediocrity

Slow down,
You're thinking too much
Where is your soul?
You cannot touch
The way I
Play
Or tell me what to say
You're in the way
Of all that I believe in

Taking in the view from the outside
Feeling like the underdog
Watching through the window I'm on the outside
Living like the underdog
I've been wasting my breath on you
Open minds will descend upon you

To those who understand, I extend my hand
To the doubtful I demand, take me as I am
Not under your command, I know where I stand
I won't change to fit your plan, take me as I am

Admittedly... that would make sense.
:-D
