[Ragnarok]

Pink Floyd - Time


Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an off hand 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
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 the 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 quiet desperation is the english way
The time is gone, the song is over, thought I’d something more to say

Home, home again
I like to be here when I can
And when I come home cold and tired
It’s good to warm my bones beside the fire
Far away across the field
The tolling of the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spells.

[Nerdanel]

I love Tracy Chapman's lyrics;

Bang Bang Bang by Tracy Chapman:

what do you go and do
you go and give the boy a gun
now there ain't no place to run to
ain't no place to run

when the hold in his hand
he feel mighty he feel strong
now there ain't no place to run to
ain't no place to run

one day he may come back
repay for what we done
then where you gonna run to
where you gonna run

but one fine day
all our problems will be solved
bang bang bang
we'll shoot him down

give him drugs and give him candy
anything to make him think he's happy
and he won't ever come for us
he won't ever come

but if he does
and if there's no one else around
bang bang bang
we'll shoot him down

if he preys only on his neighbors
brothers sisters and friends
we'll consider it a favor
we'll consider justice done

but if he comes for you or me
and we can place a gun in his hand
bang bang bang
we'll shoot him dead

what you go and do
you go and give the boy a gun
now there ain't no place to run to
ain't no place to run

now we'll all be at his mercy
if he decides to hunt us down
cause there ain't no place to run to
ain't no place to run

if he wants the chances that you took from him
and nothing that you own
then there'll be no place to run to
there'll be no place to run

and if he finds himself to be
a reflection of us all
bang bang bang
he'll shoot us down

before you can raise your eyes to read
the writing on the wall
bang bang bang
he'll shoot you down

before you can bridge the gift between
and embrace him in your arms
bang bang bang
he'll shoot you down

One more...

So by Tracy Chapman:

So you make a little money
Off of somebody else's sweat
So some people starve a little
While you get fat
While you get fat

So you grind and grind
And you push and shove
And claim that those most worthy
Will get what they deserve
What they deserve

It can't be true
It can't be true
Because I've seen too many hungry faces
I've seen too many with the likes of you
It can't be true

For you everything has it's price
You give nothing away for free
If silence were truly golden
I guess no one could sleep
No one could sleep

You have money at your fingertips
People at your beck and call
And you're fool enough
To think that for a price
You could have the whole wide world

For all our sake's
And all our lives
We must the hope the words
That come from your lips
We must hope that those words are lies

For all our sake's
And all our lives
We must hope the dreams
Soulless visions that you have
Are never realized

So
You've got a big house
And you drive a fancy car
So what if your pockets are full
If you have an empty heart

You snap your fingers
And all the waters part
So what if the people bow down
If they show you no regard

Your left hand
Always watches your right
So what if you trust in God
If you can't sleep at night

You think you've made it
You think you've got what everyone wants
So what if you're a big fat man
With an empty little heart

Who has made a little money
Off of somebody else's sweat
Who watched the people starve
While you got fat
While you got fat
You got fat
You got fat

[imrahil]

I'm on a roll, I'm on a roll
This time, I feel my luck could change
Kill me Sarah, kill me again with love
It's gonna be a glorious day

Pull me out of the aircrash
Pull me out of the lake
I'm your superhero
We are standing on the edge

The Head of State has called for me by name
But I don't have time for him
It's gonna be a glorious day
I feel my luck could change

Pull me out of the aircrash
Pull me out of the lake
I'm your superhero
We are standing on the edge

[Ella Nyneve]

Too Little, Too Late by Barenaked Ladies

You say, "Why does everything revolve around you?"
You say, "Why does everything I do confound you?"
You say, that I pulled the world from under you,
You can't go through it this time

And I could be good, and I would
If I knew I was understood
And it'll be great, just wait
Or is it too little too late?

One day, this embarrassment will fade behind me
And that day, I could think of things that won't remind me
But these days, it's unbearable for both of us
We can't discuss it this way

I'm gaining strength, trying to learn pull my own weight
But I'm gaining pounds at the precipice of Too Late

Just Wait

I could be good, and I would
If I knew I was understood
And it'll be great, just wait
Or is it too little too late?

Record and play, after years of endless rewind
Yesterday wasn't half as tough as this time
This time isn't Hell,
Last time, I couldn't tell
This mind wasn't well
Next time, hope I'm...
Going to be good, and I would -
If I knew I was understood
And it'll be great, just wait -
Or is it too little too late?
Good, and I would -
If I knew I was understood
And it'll be great, just wait -
Or is it too little too late?

LED ZEPPELIN LYRICS

"Ten Years Gone"

Then as it was, then again it will be
An' though the course may change sometimes
Rivers always reach the sea
Blind stars of fortune, each have several rays
On the wings of maybe, down in birds of prey
Kind of makes me feel sometimes, didn't have to grow
But as the eagle leaves the nest, it's got so far to go

Changes fill my time, baby, that's alright with me
In the midst I think of you, and how it used to be

Did you ever really need somebody, And really need 'em bad
Did you ever really want somebody, The best love you ever had
Do you ever remember me, baby, did it feel so good
'Cause it was just the first time, And you knew you would

Through the eyes an' I sparkle, Senses growing keen
Taste your love along the way, See your feathers preen
Kind of makes makes me feel sometimes, Didn't have to grow
We are eagles of one nest, The nest is in our soul

Vixen in my dreams, with great surprise to me
Never thought I'd see your face the way it used to be
Oh darlin', oh darlin'

I'm never gonna leave you. I never gonna leave
Holdin' on, ten years gone
Ten years gone, holdin' on, ten years gone

[Ragnarok]

Bill Withers - Lean on Me

Sometimes in our lives
we all have pain
we all have sorrow
but if we are wise
we know that there's always tomorrow

Lean on me
when you're not strong
I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
for it won't be long
'till I'm gonna need
somebody to lean on

Please
swallow your pride
if I have things
you need to borrow
for no one can fill
those of your needs
that you wont let show

just call on me brother
when you need a hand
we all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'll understand
we all need somebody to lean on

lean on me
when youre not strong
I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
for it wont be long
'till I'm gonna need somebody to lean on

you just call on me brother
when you need a hand
we all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'll understand
we all need somebody to lean on

if there is a load
you have to bare
that you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
if you just call me

Won't you just call me?
If you need a friend
Call me
Call me..

[Millane]

NIN - HURT
i hurt myself today
to see if i still feel
i focus on the pain
the only thing that's real
the needle tears a hole
the old familiar sting
try to kill it all away
but i remember everything

what have i become?
my sweetest friend
everyone i know
goes away in the end
you could have it all
my empire of dirt
i will let you down
i will make you hurt

i wear this crown of ****
upon my liar's chair
full of broken thoughts
i cannot repair
beneath the stains of time
the feelings disappear
you are someone else
i am still right here

what have i become?
my sweetest friend
everyone i know
goes away in the end
and you could have it all
my empire of dirt
i will let you down
i will make you hurt

if i could start again
a million miles away
i would keep myself
i would find a way

Teardrop by Masive Attack
one of my favourite songs ever.

Love, love is a verb
Love is a doing word
Fearless on my breath
Gentle impulsion
Shakes me makes me lighter
Fearless on my breath

Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath

Nine night of matter
Black flowers blossom
Fearless on my breath
Black flowers blossom
Fearless on my breath

Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath

Water is my eye
Most faithful mirror
Fearless on my breath
Teardrop on the fire of a confession
Fearless on my breath
Most faithful mirror
Fearless on my breath

Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath

Stumbling a little
Stumbling a little

[Ragnarok]

band: Spock's Beard
song: The Distance to the Sun

There is no peace
Here in my mind
There's no way to see
We're all born blind
To some place some time
When we could feel like
We're joined inside
We can't always
See it with our eyes

But there is a world apart from what we know
There is a time the eyes will never show
We can be as one
And be farther than the distance to the sun

There is no use you'll never win
They'll only kick you back again
Back where you've been
And you're never satisfied
Your wants just change
You've been playing an unwinnable game

But there is a world apart from what we know
There is a place the eyes will never show
We can be as one
And be farther than the distance to the sun

Half the time we're gone, we don't know why
Half of us are crying to the sky
Once we're there we'll wonder why it took so long
Once we're there we'll know what we became

Release by Pearl Jam, one of the most beautiful songs. Enjoy.

Father...ooh...oh...oh...
I see the world, feel the chill
Which way to go, wind no sail
I see the world's on a rocking horse of time
I see the birds in the rain
Ohh...ohh...ohh...ohh...

Oh, dear dad, can you see me now
I am myself, like you somehow
I'll ride the wave where it takes me
I'll hold the pain...Release me...
Ohh...ohh...ohh...ohh...

Oh, dear dad, can you see me now
I am myself, like you somehow
I'll wait up in the dark for you to speak to me
I'll open up...Release me...
Release me (3x)
Ohh...ohh...ohh...ohh...

"Three Wooden Crosses" by Randy Travis

A farmer and a teacher, a hooker and a preacher,
Ridin' on a midnight bus bound for Mexico.
One's headed for vacation, one for higher education,
An' two of them were searchin' for lost souls.
That driver never ever saw the stop sign.
An' eighteen wheelers can't stop on a dime.

There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway,
Why there's not four of them, Heaven only knows.
I guess it's not what you take when you leave this world behind you,
It's what you leave behind you when you go.

That farmer left a harvest, a home and eighty acres,
The faith an' love for growin' things in his young son's heart.
An' that teacher left her wisdom in the minds of lots of children:
Did her best to give 'em all a better start.
An' that preacher whispered: "Can't you see the Promised Land?"
As he laid his blood-stained bible in that hooker's hand.

There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway,
Why there's not four of them, Heaven only knows.
I guess it's not what you take when you leave this world behind you,
It's what you leave behind you when you go.

That's the story that our preacher told last Sunday.
As he held that blood-stained bible up,
For all of us to see.
He said: "Bless the farmer, and the teacher, an' the preacher;
"Who gave this Bible to my mamma,
"Who read it to me."

There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway,
Why there's not four of them, now I guess we know.
It's not what you take when you leave this world behind you,
It's what you leave behind you when you go.

There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway.

[Lady Tinuveil]

Everything that keeps me together is falling apart
I've got this thing I consider my only art of FKin people over
My Boss just quit the job, says he's goin' out to find blind spots
[& he'll do it]
The Third planet is sure that they're being watched
By an eye in the sky that cant be stopped
When you get to the promised land, Your gonna shake the eyes hand

Your heart felt good, It was drippin pitch & made of wood
And your hands and your knees felt cold and wet on the grass to me
Outside naked, shiverin' lookin' blue, from the cold sunlight that's
Reflected off the moon
Baby come angels fly around you
Reminding you we used to be 3 and not just 2

And that's how the world began
And that's how the world will end

A third had just been made & we're swimming in the water
Didn't know then it was a son, was it a daughter
When it occured to me that the animals were swimming
Around in the water, in the oceans in our bodies
And another had been found another ocean on the planet
Given that our blood is just like the atlantic
And How

The universe is shaped exactly like the earth
If you go straight long enough, You'll end up where you were

Everything that keeps me together is falling apart
Iv'e got this thing I consider my only art, is FKin people over

I dont kno if ne 1 has done this song bcause i dint' look 4 very lonbg(short attention span)
Bring Me To Life - Evanescence
How can you see into my eyes like open doors,
leading you down into my core
where ive become so numb.
With out a soul
My spirit sleeping some where cold.
Untill u find it there & lead it back home.

CHORUS
Wake me up inside
Wake me up inside
Call my name & save me from the dark
bid my blood 2 run
b4 i come undone
Save me from the nothing i've bcome

Now that i kno what i'm w/o
u can't just leave me
breath into me & make me real
bring me 2 life

CHORUS

All of this time i can't bleive i couldn't c
Kept in the dark but u were there infront of me
I've been sleeping a 1000 yrs it seems
got to open my eyes to everything
with out thought w/o a soul don't let me die here
there must be something more

CHORUS

Sorry, guys, i made a few mistakes...i dont have the lyrics with me right now...but ill get the changes made asap

Black Sabbath - Paranoid

find something to pacify

can you help me?
are you for my brain
can you help me?

Avril Lavigne - My Happy Ending

Let's talk this over,
It's not like we're dead.
Was it something I did
Was it something u said
Don't leave me hanging in a city so dead
Held up so high on such a breakable thread.

You were all the things i thought i knew
& i thought we could be

CHORUS
you were everything everything that i wanted
we were ment 2 b supposed 2 b but we lost it.
All our memories os close to me just fade away
All this time u were pretending so much 4 my happy ending

You got ur dumb friends
I kno what they say,
they tell u im difficult but so r they
but they dont know me
Do they even kno u
All the things u hide from me
All the sh** that u do.

u were all the things i thought i knew
& i thought we could b

CHORUS

Nice to know that u were there,
thanx 4 acting like u care & makin' me feel like i was the only 1
It's nice 2 kno we had it all thanx 4 watchin as i fall letign me kno we were done

He was every thing every thing that i wanted
we were meant 2 b supposed 2b but we lost it
all our memories so close 2 me just fade away
all this time u were pretending so much for my happy ending

skater boi - Avril Lavigne

he was a boy she was a girl
can i make it anymore obvious?
he was a punk she did ballet,
what more can i say?
He wanted her
she'd never tell
secretly she wanted him as well
all of her friends stuck of their nose,
they had a problem with his baggy clothes

he was a skater boy she said see u later boy
he wasn't good enough for her
She had a pretty face but her head was up in space
she needed 2 come back down 2 earth

5 yrs from now
she sits at home
feeding the baby she's all alone
turns on TV
guess who she sees?
Skater boy rocking up MTV
she calls up her friends they already kno
&they've all got tickets 2 c his show
she tags along
stands in the crowd
and looks up at the man that she turned down

he was a skater boy she said c u l8r boy
he wasn't good enough 4 her
now he's a super star slammin' on his guitar
does ur pretty face c what he's worth? 2X

sorry girl but u missed out
well tough luck that boy's mine now,
we r more than just good friends this is how the story ends
2 bad that u couldn't c,
c the man that boy could b
there is more than meet s the i
i c the soul that is inside

he's just a boy & im just a girl
can i make it anymore obvious?
we are in love
haven't u heard?
how we rock eachothers world?

he was a skater boy i said c u l8r boy,
i'll back stage after the show,
i'll be at the studio
singing the song we wrote about a girl u used 2 kno 2X

Pink Floyd In The Flesh? (not sure if it has already been posted, sorry if it has)

So you thought you might like to,
Go to the show.
To feel the warm thrill of confusion,
That space cadet glow.
Tell me is something eluding you, sunshine?
Is this not what you expected to see?
If you wanna find out what’s behind these cold eyes,
You’ll just have to blow your way through this disguise
