There are some really great songs that have been written since... well forever. And I was wondering what you guys thought? I mean what are your favorite lyrics at this time? I would have asked what your all time favorite lyrics were, but from my perspective, as seasons, or situations change people tend to change what they think is great in terms of songs/lyrics.

So if you like just put the group, the song, and the lyrics.

At this moment my favorite lyrics for a song is.


Hail, Hail, by Pearl Jam

"Hail, Hail"

Ah, is there room for both of us?
both of us apart?
Are we bound out of obligation?
Is that all we've got?
I get the words, and then I get to thinkin'
I don't wanna think, I wanna feel
and how do I feel?
and how do I...

If you're the only one, will I never be enough?
hail, hail the lucky ones, I refer to those in love
swore I'd love you till the day I die, and beyond..
are we going to the same place? If so, can I come?
It's egg rolling thick and heavy
All the past you carry

Oh, I could be new... you underestimate me
if you're the only one, will I never be enough?
hail, hail the lucky ones, I refer to those in love
I sometimes realize I could only be as good as you'll let me
are you woman enough to be my man?
bandaged hand in hand

I find it on the run in a race that can't be won
all hail the lucky ones, I refer to those in love
if you're my only one, so could you only one?
I want to be your one, enough...
you won, your one, your hun

Love, Hate, Love By Alice In Chains

I tried to love you I thought I could
I tried to own you I thought I would
I want to peel the skin from your face
Before the real you lays to waste

You told me I'm the only one
Sweet little angel you should have run
Lying, crying, dying to leave
Innocence creates my hell

Cheating myself still you know more
It would be so easy with a whore
Try to understand me little girl
My twisted passion to be your world

Lost inside my sick head
I live for you but I'm not alive
Take my hand before I kill
I still love you, but, I still burn

Stoic
^ What album is that from?

thanos-prime
It's from the album Facelift.

Stoic
^ Cool. It's the one album from them that I don't have.

Was watching Americas got talent tonight, and the Sons of Serendip sang/covered a song that I always liked but forgot about over time. These are the lyrics.

Somewhere Only We Know by Keane

I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete

Oh simple thing where have you gone
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

I came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?

Oh simple thing where have you gone
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

And if you have a minute why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know?

This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
So why don't we go

This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know?

The Hell of it by Paul Williams

Roll on thunder shine on lightnin'
The days are long and the nights are frightnin'
Nothing matters anyway and that's the hell of it

Winter comes and the winds blow colder well
Some grew wiser, you just grew older
And you never listened anyway
And that's the hell of it

Good for nothin' bad in bed, nobody likes you
And you're better off dead, goodbye
We've all come to say goodbye, goodbye

Born defeated died in vain
Super destructive, you were hooked on pain
And though your music lingers on
All of us are glad you're gone

If I could live my life half as worthlessly as you
I'm convinced that I'd wind up burning too

Love yourself as you love no other
Be no man's fool be no man's brother
We're all born to die alone
Y'know that's the hell of it

Life's a game where they're bound to beat you
And time's a trick they can turn to cheat you
And we only waste it anyway and that's the hell of it

Good for nothin' bad in bed nobody likes you
And you're better off dead goodbye
We've all come to say goodbye

Born defeated died in vain
Super destructive you were hooked on pain
And though your music lingers on
All of us are glad you're gone

I like it too

Like my man Muhammad from Afghanistan
Grew up in Iran, the nigga runs a neighborhood newsstand
A wild Middle Eastern, bomb specialist
Intiated, at eleven to be a terrorist
He set bombs in bottles of champagne
And when niggaz popped the cork, niggaz lost half they brains

Crashing, hit a wall
Right now I need a miracle
Hurry up now, I need a miracle
Stranded, reaching out
I call your name but you're not around
I say your name but you're not around
I need you, I need you, I need you right now
Yeah, I need you right now
So don't let me, don't let me, don't let me down
I think I'm losing my mind now
It's in my head, darling I hope
That you'll be here, when I need you the most
So don't let me, don't let me, don't let me down
D-Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down, down, down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down, down, down
R-r-running out of time
I really thought you were on my side
But now there's nobody by my side
I need you, I need you, I need you right now
Yeah, I need you right now
So don't let me, don't let me, don't let me down
I think I'm losing my mind now
It's in my head, darling I hope
That you'll be here, when I need you the most
So don't let me, don't let me, don't let me down
D-Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down, down, down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down, down, down

Ooh, I think I'm losing my mind now, yeah
I need you, I need you, I need you right now
Yeah, I need you right now
So don't let me, don't let me, don't let me down
I think I'm losing my mind now
It's in my head, darling I hope
That you'll be here, when I need you the most
So don't let me, don't let me, don't let me down
Don't let me down
Yeah, don't let me down
Yeah, don't let me down
Don't let me down, oh no
Say don't let me down
Don't let me down, no-o
Don't let me down
Don't let me down, down, down
