"Swamped" by Lacuna Coil (this lady's voice is amazing)

When you're taught through feelings

Destiny flying high above
all I know is that you can realize it

Destiny who cares
as it turns around
and I know that it descends down on me

It's just another day
the shame is gone
hard to believe
that I've let it go

Destiny can't replace my life
Scary shadows of my past
are alive

Destiny who cares
as it turns around
and I know that it descends
with a smile

It's just another day
the shame is gone
it's hard to believe
that I've let it go away

It's just a melody
it bleeds in me
hard to believe
that I've let it go

WOW!!!

"Sympathy" by the Goo Goo Dolls

Stranger than your sympathy
this is my apology
I'm killing myself from the inside out
And all my fears have pushed you out

I wish for things that I don't need
All I wanted
And what I chase won't set me free
All I wanted
And I get scared but I'm not crawling on my knees

Oh yeah everything's all wrong yeah
Everything's all wrong yeah
Where the hell did I think I was

Stranger than your sympathy
I take these things so I don't feel
I'm killing myself from the inside out
Now my head's been filled with doubt

It's hard to live the life you choose
All I wanted
When all your luck's run out on you
All I wanted
You can't see when all your dreams are coming true

Oh yeah it's easy to forget yeah
You choke on the regrets yeah
Who the hell did I think I was

Stranger than your sympathy
All these thoughts you stole from me
I'm not sure where I belong
Nowhere's home and I'm all wrong

And I wasn't all the things
I tried to make believe I was
And I wouldn't be the one to kneel
Before the dreams I wanted
And all the talk and all the lies
Were all the empty things deguised as me
Yeah stranger than your sympathy stranger than
your sympathy

This is me, and is where I'm trapped

Lost:

I have heard some Goo Goo Dolls but never this song, but the lyrics are amazing, so Im gonna download it Thanks!

Kimberly.

[ktp]

(((jetblackaura))) So we do!

I am looking for more lyrics to post, just having a hard time choosing. What other bands do you like? SOME of my faves are Mudvayne, Stone Sour, Slipknot, System of a down, Disturbed. I like harder stuff but have seen Staind twice in concert and Godsmack, only once, but loveeeeeee their music too. I can listen to most anything that deals with feelings. That 80's hair band stuff is just about the only thing that I absolutely cannot listen to, there's no way to relate to that lifestyle...know what I mean?

Anyway, I'm off on a lyrics hunt

Rock on
Kimberly
(man I'm a geek)

[jetblackaura]

Haha..well i like to think i'll listen to most things. My favourite cds at the moment are

The Used - In love and death
Further Seems Forever - Hide Nothing(christian band)
Hiding With Girls - The Torino Scale (British band...awesome)
18 Visions - Obsession (opening lyrics - obsesson.desire, depression)

But i will dig out some lyrics..and songs, i just can never think of htem on the spot!

"Into The Darkness" by Kittie

I feel helpless waiting.
Could this all be the end?
It's all coming down all at once.
Am I losing you?
No Way Out!

Until this all crashes down, I'll hold on.
you're going to make this work
Into the darkness...not knowing at all....
you're going to make this work

Are you out there waiting, wondering about me?
Never felt so alone as I do now.
No way out!

Until this all crashes down, I'll hold on.
you're going to make this work
Into the darkness...Not knowing at all
I'm just trying to make this work

Until this all crashes down, I'll hold on.
Into the darkness...Not knowing at all
Until this all crashes down

[valbends]

There's two things I know for sure.
She was sent here from heaven,
and she's daddy's little girl.
As I drop to my knees by her bed at night,
she talks to Jesus, and I close my eyes.
And I thank God for all of the joy in
my life, But most of all, for...

Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer.
Stickin' little white flowers all up in her hair.
"Walk beside the pony
daddy, it's my first ride."
"I know the cake looks funny,
daddy, but I sure tried."
Oh, with all that I've done wrong,
I must have done something right
To deserve a hug every morning,
And butterfly kisses at night.

Sweet sixteen today,
She's looking like her momma
a little more everyday.
One part woman, the other part girl.
To perfume and makeup,
from ribbons and curls.
Trying her wings out in a great
big world. But I remember...

Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer.
Stickin' little white flowers all up in her hair.
"You know how much I love you daddy,
But if you don't mind,
I'm only going to kiss you on
the cheek this time."
With all that I've done wrong
I must have done something right.
To deserve her love every morning,
And butterfly kisses at night.

All the precious time
Like the wind, the years go by
Precious butterfly
Spread your wings and fly

She'll change her name today.
She'll make a promise,
and I'll give her away.
Standing in the bride room
just staring at her,
she asked me what I'm thinking,
and I said "I'm not sure,
I just feel like I'm losing my baby girl."
Then she leaned over....and gave me....

Butterfly kisses, with her mama there
Sticking little flowers all up in her hair
"Walk me down the aisle, daddy, it's just about time"
"Does my wedding gown look pretty, daddy?"
"Daddy,
don't cry."
With all that I've done wrong,
I must have done something right
To deserve her love every morning,
And butterfly kisses
I couldn't ask God for more, man, this is what love is
I know I've gotta let her go, but I'll always remember
Every hug in the morning, and butterfly kisses...

first time i heard thois song it was like identical to me and my dad. we always use to give each other butterfly kisses, he was there for my frst pony ride, i always tried my hardest. Anyways, he died three years ago and i got a bk journal and we wrote important things to each other.... but anyways it's what bound us together and so it just makes me remember him and it's OUR song.

That is a lovely song. Thank you for posting it for everyone. Pat

[SeptemberMorn]

Val, I've heard this song and it's so touching! I'm glad you posted it. Now I'm gonna have to look for it on the internet and download it!

Thanks for the reminder.

Midnight at the oasis
Send your camel to bed
Shadows paintin' our faces
Traces of romance in our heads
Heaven's holdin' a half-moon
Shinin' just for us
Let's slip off to a sand dune, real soon
And kick up a little dust
Come on, Cactus is our friend
He'll point out the way
Come on, till the evenin' ends
Till the evenin' ends
You don't have to answer
There's no need to speak
I'll be your belly dancer, prancer
And you can be my sheik
------ guitar solo ------
I know your Daddy's a sultan
A nomad known to all
With fifty girls to attend him, they all send him
Jump at his beck and call
But you won't need no harem, honey
When I'm by your side
And you won't need no camel, no no
When I take you for a ride
Come on, Cactus is our friend
He'll point out the way
Come on, till the evenin' ends
Till the evenin' ends
Midnight at the oasis
Send your camel to bed
Got shadows paintin' our faces
And traces of romance in our heads

This is dedicated to Ethel..........

September, when you mention listening to a song on the internet, what service are you using????? I'm not the sharpest tool in the gardenshed when it comes to all of this.....Pat

[SeptemberMorn]

Oh, GAWD, Pat! That song! LMAO!! How did you say it affected you? I'll be it didn't affect us the same way. LOL It made me want to PUKE!! LOLOL

I use Napster, Pat. If you've got Windows Media Player you should find the link right on your "library" page at the top right hand corner. It looks like a rough sketch of a cat wearing earphones. Just click on it and it should take you there. If not, then just use your browser's address bar and type in "www.Napster.com" You can buy your songs for .99 but so far, I haven't been able to copy any of the ones I've bought to CD, so unless it's a "buy only" song, I just download the songs and play them. They're downloaded right to your Windows Media Player.

Good luck!

"Wait" by Earshot

Something's wrong,
Trying to conquer these fears i thought were gone.
And it's been so long, I'm dying to live in a world i dont belong

I cant wait for someone to hear me,
And wait for someone to touch me.
And wait forever to be told,
I'm forever alone.

I cant wait for someone to feel me,
And wait for someone to heal me.
And wait forever to be told,
I'm forever alone..

On my own,
I'll show myself what it means to be alone.
And the tears i cry are washed away.
All the scars are my disguise.

I cant wait for someone to hear me,
And wait for someone to touch me.
And wait forever to be told,
I'm forever alone.

I cant wait for someone to feel me,
And wait for someone to heal me.
And wait forever to be told,
Im forever alone..

I'm forever alone.
I'm forever alone.
I'm forever alone.

I, I'm not waiting here this time.

I can't wait for someone to hear me.
And wait for someone to touch me
And wait forever to be told,
I'm forever alone.

I cant wait for someone to feel me
And wait for someone to heal me
And wait forever to be told
I'm forever alone.

"Running Away" by Hoobastank

I don't want you to give it all up
And leave your own life collecting dust
And I don't want you to feel sorry for me
You never gave us a chance to be
And I don't need you to be by my side
To tell me that everything's alright
I just wanted you to tell me the truth
You know I'd do that for you
So why are you running away?
So why are you running away?
Cause I did enough to show you that I
Was willing to give and sacrifice
And I was the one who was lifting you up
When you thought your life had had enough
And when I get close, you turn away
There's nothing that I can do or say
So now I need you to tell me the truth
You know I'd do that for you
So why are you running away?
Why are you running away?
Is it me, is it you
Nothing that I can do
To make you change your mind
Is it me, is it you
Nothing that I can do
Is it a waste of time?
Is it me, is it you
Nothing that I can do
To make you change your mind
So why are you running away?
Why are you running away?
...What is it I've got to say...
So why are you running away?
...To make you admit you're afraid...
Why are you running away?

Bridge Over Troubled Waters
Artist: Simon &amp; Garfunkel

When you're weary
Feeling small
When tears are in your eyes
I will dry them all

I'm on your side

When times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

When you're down and out
When you're on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you

I'll take your part
When darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

Sail on Silver Girl,
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way

See how they shine
If you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind

I didn't say how it affected me......bad marriage song......that's your answer...I just saw the singer's name in something and thought, "oh yeah, I remember her and her snippy little remarks about other women singers"....Of course we haven't heard from her since that song.....Karma??????

[SeptemberMorn]

One of my faves, Droopy!! But then, most anything that Simon and Garfunkel did, I loved! Wonder what happened with the recent reunion? They didn't quite sound the same anymore.

A Hard Rain's Gonna Fall~~~~~



Oh, where have you been, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, where have you been, my darling young one?
I've stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains,
I've walked and I've crawled on six crooked highways,
I've stepped in the middle of seven sad forests,
I've been out in front of a dozen dead oceans,
I've been ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard,
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, and it's a hard,
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

Oh, what did you see, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, what did you see, my darling young one?
I saw a newborn baby with wild wolves all around it
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it,
I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin',
I saw a room full of men with their hammers a-bleedin',
I saw a white ladder all covered with water,
I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken,
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children,
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

And what did you hear, my blue-eyed son?
And what did you hear, my darling young one?
I heard the sound of a thunder, it roared out a warnin',
Heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world,
Heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a-blazin',
Heard ten thousand whisperin' and nobody listenin',
Heard one person starve, I heard many people laughin',
Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter,
Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley,
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

Oh, who did you meet, my blue-eyed son?
Who did you meet, my darling young one?
I met a young child beside a dead pony,
I met a white man who walked a black dog,
I met a young woman whose body was burning,
I met a young girl, she gave me a rainbow,
I met one man who was wounded in love,
I met another man who was wounded with hatred,
And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

Oh, what'll you do now, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, what'll you do now, my darling young one?
I'm a-goin' back out 'fore the rain starts a-fallin',
I'll walk to the depths of the deepest black forest,
Where the people are many and their hands are all empty,
Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters,
Where the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison,
Where the executioner's face is always well hidden,
Where hunger is ugly, where souls are forgotten,
Where black is the color, where none is the number,
And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it,
And reflect it from the mountain so all souls can see it,
Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin',
But I'll know my song well before I start singin',
And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

[SweetSunshine]

This song just came out on country radio, It spoke to me because of going through losing my innocense thru child sexual abuse. I think it paints a perfect picture of what one goes thru when losing a part of yourself this horrible way.Big Kennys sister went thru this and her wrote this song for her.

Holy Water ~ Big And Rich

Somewhere there's a stolen halo
I use to watch her wear it well
Everything would shine, wherever she would go
But lookin at her now you'd never tell
Someone ran away with her innocence.
A memory she cant get out of her head
And I can only imagine what she's feelin' when she's prayin
Kneeling at the edge of her bed..

And she says take me away, then take me farther
Surround me now and hold, hold , hold me like holy water

She wants someone to call her angel
Someone to put the light back in her eyes
She's lookin through the faces and unfamiliar places
She needs someone to hear her when she cries

And she says take me away , then take me farther
Surround me now and hold , hold , hold me like holy water

She just needs a little help, to wash away the pain she's felt
She wants to feel the healin' hands of someone who understands

And she ways take me away , then take me farther
Surround me now and hold, hold, hold me like holy water.~

I hope someway some how that this helps others who are going thru this to know they are not alone. That there are others here who understand what they are going thru. Take care all~ Tryin2bme

[droopy55]

Thanks, SeptemberMorn,

I forgot to say how "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" affected me.

Like you, I have always enjoyed Simon and Garfunkel. And I usually just "listened" to them. But when this question was asked, I got to thinking about the words of this song more closely.

There have been several "bridges" who have been there for me since my diagnosis of bipolar. And as I read the words again, it brought tears to my eyes.

I also would like to say that this board is also a wonderful bridge. I am new here and you and several others have answered some of my posts and have been an encouragement. And I know that there are so many others out there who are ready to help anytime I need it.

Thank you, members, moderators, and administrators for being there! Thanks for being a bridge over troubled waters.

"Mad season" by Matchbox 20

I feel stupid-but I know it won't last for long
I've been guessing-I coulda been guessing wrong
You don't know me now
I kinda thought that you should by now
Does that whole mad season got ya down

I feel stupid but it's something that comes and goes
I've been changing-think it's funny how no one knows
We don't talk about it-the little things that we do without
When that whole mad season comes around

So why ya gotta stand there
looking like the answer now
It seems to me-you'd come around
I need you now
Do you think you can cope
You figured me out-I'm lost and I'm hopeless
Bleeding and broken-though I've never spoken
I come undone-in this mad season

I feel stupid-but I think I've been catching on
I feel ugly-but I know I still turn you on
You seem colder now, torn apart, angry, turned around
Will that whole mad season knock you down

So are you gonna stand there
Are you gonna help me out
You need to be together now-I need you now

Now I'm crying-isn't that what you want
I'm trying to live my life on my own
But I won't
At times-I do believe I am strong
So someone tell me why, why, why
Do I feel feel stupid
And I came undone

Your post and song touched me deeply. I, too, lost my innocence..except that I didn't remember til I was 40....then I knew why I had done alot of the things that had made me wonder about my sanity......Thank you for posting the song. Pat
