Song: Carry the cross
Artist: Arch Enemy


We walk through the ages
The world on our shoulders
The burden we carry
To the dark end of our days
A thousand eyes watching
every step we are taking
waiting to see us
struggle and fall

And when we are beaten
The cross holds us down
I hear them laughing
And walking away

Carry the Cross
And suffer the loss
Hear my confession
Forever damnation

Reincarnation
Bleeding forever
Recover the pain
Pain gives me strength
Pick up the cross
And carry it on
Over and over
the wheel turns again

And when we are beaten
The cross holds us down
Ihear them laughing
And walking Away

Carry the cross
And suffer the loss
Hearmy confession
Forever damnation

Shut Up and Teach- the right brothers

Nowhere in this textbook does it say Bush equals Hitler
Nowhere in this chapter does it claim we had it coming
No way in this room can you blame Capitalism
No way on this earth will I be swayed

Chorus
Shut up and teach
Don’t give a speech
Keep your political beliefs
All to yourself until the bell
Your job as far as I can tell
Doesn’t include indoctrination so could you please
Shut up and teach

I will not be force-fed any more of your liberal garbage
And I will not write down what’s on the board cause it’s so stupid
I can’t just sit back and ignore your biased grading
This is not what we all came here for

Repeat Chorus

It’s called a textbook, why don’t you read it
You’d be amazed at what you’d find inside
It’s nothing like what you’ve been feeding
I guess you must’ve thought we were blind

Just keep ranting while I sit in here with my recorder
I’ll see you at McDonald’s next school year and you can take my order
Cause you might lose your job if you can’t learn to stick to the curriculum
You had your say now I think it’s our turn

Repeat Chorus
Just show up, do your job, I know it sounds extreme

The Devil Went Down to Georgia - Steve Ouimette

The devil went down to Georgia, he was looking for a soul to steal.
He was in a bind 'cos he was way behind: he was willin' to make a deal.
When he came across this young man sawin' on a fiddle and playin' it hot.
And the devil jumped upon a hickory stump and said: "Boy let me tell you what:
"I bet you didn't know it, but I'm a fiddle player too.
"And if you'd care to take a dare, I'll make a bet with you.
"Now you play a pretty good fiddle, boy, but give the devil his due:
"I bet a fiddle of gold against your soul, 'cos I think I'm better than you."
The boy said: "My name's Johnny and it might be a sin,
"But I'll take your bet, your gonna regret, 'cos I'm the best that's ever been."

Johnny you rosin up your bow and play your fiddle hard.
'Cos hells broke loose in Georgia and the devil deals it hard.
And if you win you get this shiny fiddle made of gold.
But if you lose, the devil gets your soul.

The devil opened up his case and he said: "I'll start this show."
And fire flew from his fingertips as he resined up his bow.
And he pulled the bow across his strings and it made an evil hiss.
Then a band of demons joined in and it sounded something like this.
When the devil finished, Johnny said: "Well you're pretty good ol' son.
"But if you'll sit down in that chair, right there, and let me show you how its done."

Fire on the moun, run boys, run.
The devil's in the house of the risin' sun.
Chicken in the bread pin, pickin' out dough.
"Granny, does your dog bite?"
"No, child, no."

The devil bowed his head because he knew that he'd been beat.
He laid that golden fiddle on the ground at Johnny's feet.
Johnny said: "Devil just come on back if you ever want to try again.
"I told you once, you son of a bitch, I'm the best that's ever been."

And he played fire on the mount, run boys, run.
The devil's in the house of the risin' sun.
Chicken in the bread pin pickin' out dough.
"Granny, does your dog bite?"
"No, child, no."

天天都需要你爱，

I love you
我就是要你让我每天都精彩

I need your love everyday

wǒ de xīn sī yóu nǐ cāi

dào dǐ yǒu jǐ fēn shuō de bǐ xiǎng xiàng gèng kuài
How much do you love me? Your words are faster than I thought

是我们感情丰富太慷慨,还是有上天安排,
是我们本来就是那一派,还是舍不得太乖,
是那一次约定了没有来,让我哭得像小孩,
是我们急着证明我存在,还是不爱会发呆,
OH!BABY

shì wǒ men gǎn qíng fēng fù tài kāng kài
Are our emotions too intense and rich,

It made me cry like a child

shì wǒ men jí zhù zhèng míng wǒ cún zài
are we too eager to show I exist

hái shì bù ài huì fā dāi
or is it that I don't want to be dazed


不得不爱 否则快乐从何而来
不得不爱 否则悲伤从何而来
不得不爱 否则我就失去未来

bù de bù ài
gotta love

fǒu zé wǒ jiù shī qù wèi lái
Otherwise I'll just lose my future

好象身不由己不能自己很失败
可是每天都过得精彩


hǎo xiàng shén bù yóu qí bù néng zì jǐ hěn shī bài
It seems I just can't help myself, nor be myself; I'm a complete loser

kě shì měi tiān dōu guò de jīng cǎi tiān tiān dōu jīng cǎi
But I'm having days full of joy.

Re: What's your favorite song? Post the lyrics here.

Well, I have many favourites, but here's my recent fave.

Pork and Beans by Weezer

They say i need some rogaine to put in my hair
Work it out at the gym to fit my underwear
Okaley makes the shades to transform a tool
You'd hate for the kids to think that you've lost your cool

Imma do the things that i wanna do
I ain't got a thing to prove to you
I'll eat my candy with the pork and beans
Excuse my manners if i make a scene
I ain't gonna wear the clothes that you like
I'm fine and dandy with the me inside
One look in the mirror and i'm tickled pink
I don't give a hoot about what you think

everyone likes to dance to a happy song
with a catchy chorus and beat so they can sing along
timbaland knows the way to reach the top of the charts
maybe if i work with him i can perfect the art

Imma do the things that i wanna do
I ain't got a thing to prove to you
I'll eat my candy with the pork and beans
Excuse my manners if i make a scene
I ain't gonna wear the clothes that you like
I'm fine and dandy with the me inside
one look in the mirror and i'm tickled pink
I don't give a hoot about what you think

no, i don't care
i don't care
i don't care
i don't care
i don't care
i don't care

Imma do the things that i wanna do
I ain't got a thing to prove to you
I'll eat my candy with the pork and beans
Excuse my manners if i make a scene
I ain't gonna wear the clothes that you like
I'm fine and dandy with the me inside
one look in the mirror and i'm tickled pink
I don't give a hoot about what you think

=============[Lyrics Translation]=============
If you embrace your hopes without fear, nothing exists that can keep you from it
You will meet with ominous disaster in the field where the black death dances

Those prepared will never falter if they face their own death without fear
They will be lead to an endless night at the promised time

Who crossed the borders
That no-one should be able to cross at the ends of antiquity and eternity?

In an all-encompassing labyrinth where light and dark are distorted:
Intercept and scatter these despairing, transient lives

Who crossed the borders
That no-one should be able to cross at the ends of antiquity and eternity?

Truly, a multitude will be born and disappear
Is it my place to maintain this balance which must not be broken?

You'll be nowhere to be found after your bewildering, indolent spiriting away
My desires will become to search out the lives of those that will not return

Dreams and reality become one in the same
To spin a dream is to decide the fate of the world

Within an all-encompassing where light and dark are distorted
Intercept and scatter these despairing, transient lives

You'll be nowhere to be found after your bewildering, indolent spiriting away
My desire becomes to search out those who will never return



lol the english translation makes it seem like a rock song... or is it.

Re: What's your favorite song? Post the lyrics here.

When your sparkle evades your soul, I'll be at your side to console.
When you're standing on the window ledge, I'll talk you back, back from the edge.
I will, I will turn your tide, be your shephard, I swear, be your guide.
When you're lost in the deep & darkest place around, may my words walk with you home safe & sound.

When you say that I'm no good and you feel like walking, I need to make sure you know it's the prescription talking
When your feet decide to walk you on the wayward side, up upon the stairs, and down a downward slide,
I will, I will turn your tide.
Do all that I can to heal you inside.
I will be the angel on your shoulder, my name is Geraldine, I'm your social worker.

Re: What's your favorite song? Post the lyrics here.

Hello.
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me.
Is there anyone home?

Come on, now.
I hear youre feeling down.
Well I can ease your pain,
Get you on your feet again.

Relax.
I need some information first.
Just the basic facts:
Can you show me where it hurts?

There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ships smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I cant hear what youre sayin.
When I was a child I had a fever.
My hands felt just like two balloons.
Now I got that feeling once again.
I cant explain, you would not understand.
This is not how I am.
I have become comfortably numb.

Ok.
Just a little pinprick. [ping]
Therell be no more --aaaaaahhhhh!
But you may feel a little sick.

Can you stand up?
I do believe its working. good.
Thatll keep you going for the show.
Come on its time to go.

There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ships smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I cant hear what youre sayin.
When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse,
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone.
I cannot put my finger on it now.
The child is grown, the dream is gone.
I have become comfortably numb.

Re: What's your favorite song? Post the lyrics here.

What has come over me
What madness taken hold of my heart
To run away, the only answer
Pulling me away
To fall upon the night
The source of my recovery
Sweet shadow taking hold of the light
Another day has been devoured
Calling me away, begging the question
Why

For saving me from all they've taken
Letting my armor fall again
Giving me the strength to face them
Feeling it taking over now
On a path to take it all away
There can be no better way of knowing

[Chorus]
In a world beyond controlling
Are you going to deny the savior
In front of your eyes
Stare into the night
Power beyond containing
Are you going to remain a slave for
The rest of your life
Give into the night

This self discovery
Redemption taking hold of my mind
A serenade of haunting voices
Calling me away
To feast upon the night
So much felicity
Dark maiden taking hold of my hand
Lead me away from hibernation
Strong and unafraid
Never a question why

For saving me from all they've taken
Letting my armor fall again
Giving me the strength to face them
Feeling it taking over now
I'm about to take it away
There can be no better way of knowing

[Chorus]
In a world beyond controlling
Are you going to deny the savior
In front of your eyes
Stare into the night
Power beyond containing
Are you going to remain a slave for
The rest of your life
Give into the night

[Guitar Solo]

Give in to the night

[Chorus]
In a world beyond controlling
Are you going to deny the savior
In front of your eyes
Stare into the night
Power beyond containing
Are you going to remain a slave for
The rest of your life
Give into the night

Night [x3]
Give into the Night
Night [x3]
Give into the Night [x2]

Re: What's your favorite song? Post the lyrics here.

Will this is a nice bump. Always nice to see if people's favorite song changes over the couse of 2 years and who was posting when.

I probably already posted (I'll read the entire thread later and see what I said) but I never have one favorite so I can answer with is what Im enjoying the most right now. Those songs dont have lyrics alot of times, nut one I enjoy cuz of the lyrics would be The Light Before We Land, which was the opener to the anime version of Gunslinger Girl

In cases such as these I'd like a hand
Don't wake me up without a master plan
With sight and sound becoming fragile
Don't you understand?
When things that once were beautiful
Are bland

And when I feel like I can feel once again
Let me stay awhile
Soak it in awhile
If we can hold on we can fix what is wrong
Buy a little time
For this head of mine
Haven for us

In truth there is no better place to be
Than falling out of darkness still to see

Without a premonition
Could you tell me where we stand?
I'd hate to lose this light
Before we land

And when I feel like I can feel once again
Let me stay awhile
Soak it in awhile
If we can hold on we can fix what is wrong
Buy a little time
For this head of mine
Haven for us

Before we let euphoria
Convince us we are free
Remind us how we used to feel
Before when life was real

And when I feel like I can feel once again
Let me stay awhile
Soak it in awhile
If we can hold on we can fix what is wrong
Buy a little time
For this head of mine
Haven for us

Re: What's your favorite song? Post the lyrics here.

Ok, it's not my favourite song (technically I don't have one) but I find Tom Lehrer an imaginative genius.

The Elements (also in FFR):

Now, if I may digress momentarily from the mainstream of this evening's symposium, I'd like to sing a song which is completely pointless, but is something which I picked up during my career as a scientist. This may prove useful to some of you some day, perhaps, in a somewhat bizarre set of circumstances. It's simply the names of the chemical elements set to a possibly recognizable tune*.


There's antimony, arsenic, aluminum, selenium,
And hydrogen and oxygen and nitrogen and rhenium,
And nickel, neodymium, neptunium, germanium,
And iron, americium, ruthenium, uranium,
Europium, zirconium, lutetium, vanadium,
And lanthanum and osmium and astatine and radium,
And gold and protactinium and indium and gallium, (gasp)
And iodine and thorium and thulium and thallium.

There's yttrium, ytterbium, actinium, rubidium,
And boron, gadolinium, niobium, iridium,
And strontium and silicon and silver and samarium,
And bismuth, bromine, lithium, beryllium, and barium.

Isn't that interesting?
I knew you would.
I hope you're all taking notes, because there's going to be a short quiz next period...

There's holmium and helium and hafnium and erbium,
And phosphorus and francium and fluorine and terbium,
And manganese and mercury, molybdenum, magnesium,
Dysprosium and scandium and cerium and cesium.
And lead, praseodymium and platinum, plutonium,
Palladium, promethium, potassium, polonium,
And tantalum, technetium, titanium, tellurium, (gasp)
And cadmium and calcium and chromium and curium.

There's sulfur, californium and fermium, berkelium,
And also mendelevium, einsteinium, nobelium,
And argon, krypton, neon, radon, xenon, zinc and rhodium,
And chlorine, carbon, cobalt, copper, tungsten, tin and sodium.

These are the only ones of which the news has come to Hahvard,
And there may be many others but they haven't been discahvered.

And now, may I have the next slide please? ...carried away there.

Pollution

Time was when an American about to go abroad would be warned by his friends or the guidebooks not to drink the water. But times have changed, and now a foreigner coming to this country might be offered the following advice:

If you visit American city,
You will find it very pretty.
Just two things of which you must beware:
Don't drink the water and don't breathe the air!

Pollution, pollution!
They got smog and sewage and mud.
Turn on your tap
And get hot and cold running crud!

See the halibuts and the sturgeons
Being wiped out by detergeons.
Fish gotta swim and birds gotta fly,
But they don't last long if they try.

Pollution, pollution!
You can use the latest toothpaste,
And then rinse your mouth
With industrial waste.

Just go out for a breath of air
And you'll be ready for Medicare.
The city streets are really quite a thrill -
If the hoods don't get you, the monoxide will.

Pollution, pollution!
Wear a gas mask and a veil.
Then you can breathe,
Long as you don't inhale!

Lots of things there that you can drink,
But stay away from the kitchen sink!
The breakfast garbage that you throw into the Bay
They drink at lunch in San Jose.*

So go to the city,
See the crazy people there.
Like lambs to the slaughter,
They're drinking the water
And breathing [cough] the air!

Re: What's your favorite song? Post the lyrics here.

This is one of my favorites.

Sad Statue- System of A Down

Conquest to the lover,
And your love to the fire,
Permanence unfolding in the absolute.

Forgivness is
The ultimate sacrifice.
Eloquence belongs,
To the conqueror.

The pictures of time and space are rearranged,
In this little piece of typical tragedy.

Justified Candy!
Brandy for the nerves,
Eloquence belongs,
To the conqueror.

You and me will all go down in history,
With a sad Statue of Liberty,
And a Generation that didn't agree.

You and me will all go down in history,
With a sad Statue of Liberty,
And a Generation that didn't agree.

I forgot to
I forgot to let you know that...

Justified Candy!
Brandy for the nerves,
Eloquence belongs,
To the conqueror.

Conquest to the lover,
And your love to the fire,
Permanence unfolding in the absolute.

Forgivness is
The ultimate sacrifice.
Eloquence belongs,
To the conqueror.

You and me will all go down in history,
With a sad Statue of Liberty,
And a Generation that didn't agree.

You and me will all go down in history,
With a sad Statue of Liberty,
And a Generation that didn't agree.

Generation..............

What is in us that turns a deaf ear to the cries of human suffering?!!!

WOAH!!!!!!!

Suffering, suffering now!

You and me will all go down in history,
With a sad Statue of Liberty,
And a Generation that didn't agree.

You and me will all go down in history,
With a sad Statue of Liberty,
And a Generation that didn't agree.

Generation..........

Re: What's your favorite song? Post the lyrics here.

I don't really have favourite songs or anything but I do have lyricists that I admire. Andy Tillson from The Tangent would be one. Two examples of how amazing he is (both from the same album) (oh and the songs themselves are incredible):

In Earnest

Keying his mic' as he searches for life,
A gentle old man sits alone in the dark,
He's scanning the waves,
Looking for memories he can share.

His correspondents collect him like stamps,
Adding his call sign to their trophies and maps,
And none of them wonder just who it is they're talking to,
None of them think to ask the kind of man he was...

"I was a pilot, in a war long ago
and it all seemed to matter way back then..."

And now and then he feels the ground-rush,
As his plane hits the air,
Or feel his ground crew rally round him once again.

He remembers everything about flying Spitfires, sending Morse,
The crackle of the radio, the tension of the news reports,
He flew to save his people!
His people do not want to know him now.

He remembers every detail about that sand-bagged days,
But every chapter that came after, vanishes in blurry haze,
He has no great love story, just medals and a glory, gone for good.
He gave his youth - Just like he should.

He demobbed in 1945 as the world he'd fought for came alive,
He looked for his friends to find that the most of them had gone.
He scanned the radio for the next few years, until the last ones disappeared,

When no-one was left, our Earnest looked to pastures new, from his viewpoint,
A mile above the ground,
He looked down on his oyster, green and blue.

He sits in a hundred countries, counting off his latter years, while...
Leaders sit in paneled War-Rooms, fulled by their peoples' fears,
They'll find so many willing,
So many, ready to do what he had done.

He remembers smoky jazz bars in the years after the war,
The feeling of nostalgia was creeping up and taking over.
And after that it all just seemed the same,
How could he ever equal it again?

And in his flights of fancy he's still the captain of his crew
His navigator on the double bass?
Is that Lofty up there with him too?
But it all came down so fast,
And this be-bop won't last
And in his flights of fancy he never even left the R.A.F.
It all came down so fast, and,
Earnest only has the past,
He's a hero in November
But all year long he's last in the Queue

He remembers something - about a motorbike in Lincolnshire?
A rally -- for Ham Radio?, his kids on a trip?, to Brighton Pier?
His heart is in the 40's
His roaring engines still sport his name...
In Earnest, we all have a friend.

Lifelong memories as he hits the dam
of Bouncing Bombs and slide rules,
Radio cans...
It's Earnest in the cockpit and he'll never know
A memento to compare with this one,
In the world... below

Sipping his spite as he sits at the bar
A lonely old man sits alone with his thoughts
Around him we buzz, and never notice that he's there.
He's in the way when we order our drinks,
He's there every night of the week,
Some Crazy Old Guy who tells those stories all the time...
...But he's not with us, he's miles away from here,
In the only past we gave him worth his thoughts.
So we'll never see his Spitfire as it makes its final roll,
And we'll never learn the lessons he was taught.

Don't leave me nostalgic for the wrong things in my life,
I don't want adventures among your grand designs of war!
I'll take a clear morning with the wind in my hair,
I beg you, In Earnest, for nothing more.

A Place In The Queue

You'd been alive for thirty minutes when you filled in your first form,
With blood taken from your left heel just to prove that you were born,
And they filed away the papers and you took your place in the queue.

Through the years of quiet childhood they plotted out your fate,
They had you on their system, there was no hurry, they could wait!
So by the time you'd finished schooling,
You'd learned your place in the queue.

Shaping the line into order, filtering the ones who will rule,
Positioning their appointed marshals,
In the churches, the youth clubs and schools......

They were there when you got busted and they now have prints to say,
That you spent three weeks in the U.S. and you stole a coat from C&A
They can look you up at any time,
And gauge your place in the queue.

I walk this world as a number,
No face, no name, no character, no point of view,
And they tick me off and file me and save me to their drives,
But never know completely why or who....

I walk this world as a number,
A statistic in the spreadsheet on the pile,
I interact with others who they let cross my path,
We entertain each other for a while,

In every situation there's a hierarchy, Someone in charge, some ladder to climb,
From collecting stamps to national government,
there's always a front and a back of the line.

You may say that you're immune,
The world dances to your tune,
But be honest, is that your name on the score?
The mastermind "dons" of the East-End gangsters,
The president of your local Round Table Club,
The man who represents you on the local council,
The technician who controls your local network hub. (No offence Adam)

And you may try to "break on through",
- It's sometimes good, but when you do.
You just find yourself moving one place up in the queue.

You could walk that Escher Staircase,
Or push the Sysyphean Stone,
You could stand on bridges, screaming,
For a place to call your own,
or you could call it "fiction",
(feel the roughness of the sands of time in your hands again)
Give no heed to false position,
(Stand and observe all the colours and the feelings in these lands again)

You might never find the goal that: you were hoping for,
You might search for rites of passage but never see the door,
Outside the world is waiting, bated breath, for any words that you have to say
While you sit contemplating the queue and the problems that face your world today.

And far away in a land we built when we were younger,
Our dreams stand tall and our hopes still flare with youth,
But we sold them, we sold them all for the price of a B.M.W,
Adding our names to the spreadsheet and
Taking our place in the queue.

Take on board the lying commercials, the promises of kings,
We're inviting the very virii that hold our feelings, in.
Or we could take the high road, look down on the cheating and the con-men,
Who've held our lives so long,
or we could "Do As We're Told".
Wait in line forever, until the end of our life's little song.

Fools and politicians, paupers, Kings and Popes,
All guided to their futures by the eternal purple ropes,
Taking castoffs from the man in front and
Passing them back down the queue

I walk this world as a number
A statistic in the spreadsheet on the pile,
I interact with others who they let cross my path,
We entertain each other for a while.

Viva La Vida by coldplay

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvgZkm1xWPE

I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemies eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt, and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can not explain
Once you know there was never, never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world
(Ohhh)

It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in.
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People could not believe what I'd become
Revolutionaries Wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can not explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)

Hear Jerusalem bells are ringings
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can not explain
I know Saint Peter will call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh

Porcelain and the Tramps- The Prayingmantis

I remember when
You told me I'm driving you crazy, crazy
I remember when
You used to call me your baby, baby

And I don't think I am who you want me to be
I'm sorry it took you this long just to see
That I'm rolling and rolling around in my mind

I hung you on a limb
Made you bend over
Backwards on a sin
Quit crying on my shoulder
There's nothing left to say
We're beautiful garbage
Throw it all away
Wash you off in the shower

Actions speak louder than words
So don't tell me that you love me now, love me now
Im gagging myself
I'm brushing out the foul taste you left in my mouth
You left in my mouth

And I don't think I am who you want me to be
I'm sorry it took you this long just to see
That I'm rolling and rolling around in my mind

I hung you on a limb
Made you bend over
Backwards on a sin
Quit crying on my shoulder
There's nothing left to say
We're beautiful garbage
Throw it all away
Wash you off in the shower

I hung you on a limb
Made you bend over
Backwards on a sin
Quit crying on my shoulder
There's nothing left to say
We're beautiful garbage
Throw it all away
Wash you off in the shower
Throw it all away
Wash you off in the shower

I'm gagging myself
I'm brushing out the foul taste you left in my mouth
