Where is everybody? by NIN

Did you happen to catch
And did it happen so fast
To what you thought would always last
Has passed you by
Is everything speeding up?
Or am I slowing down?
I'm just spinning around
And I don't know why
All the pieces don't fit
But I didn't really didn't give a shit
(I never wanted to be like you)
But for all I aspire, I'm really a liar...
And I'm running out of things I can do.

I'd like to stay
But everyday
Everything pushes me further away
If you could show
Help me to know
How it's supposed to be
Where did it go???

pleading and
needing and
bleeding and
breeding and
feeding
exceeding
Where is everybody?
trying and
lying
defying
denying
crying and
dying
Where is everybody?

OK enough
You've had your fun
but come on there has got to be someone
that hasn't yet become
So numb
And succumb
and
God damn I am so tired of pretending
of Wishing I was ending
when all I'm really doing is trying to hide
and keep it all inside
and fill it with lies
open my eyes?
maybe I wish I could try


pleading and
needing and
bleeding and
breeding and
feeding
exceeding
Where is everybody?
trying and
lying
defying
denying
crying and
dying
Where is everybody?

This one's for all the whiners out there:

ARTIST: Ralph McTell

SONG: Streets of London

Have you seen the old man
In the closed-down market
Kicking up the paper,
with his worn out shoes?
In his eyes you see no pride
And held loosely at his side
Yesterday's paper telling yesterday's news

So how can you tell me you're lonely,
And say for you that the sun don't shine?
Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you something to make you change your mind

Have you seen the old girl
Who walks the streets of London
Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags?
She's no time for talking,
She just keeps right on walking
Carrying her home in two carrier bags.

So how can you tell me you're lonely,
And say for you that the sun don't shine?
Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you something to make you change your mind

In the all night cafe
At a quarter past eleven,
Same old man is sitting there on his own
Looking at the world
Over the rim of his tea-cup,
Each tea last an hour
Then he wanders home alone

So how can you tell me you're lonely,
And say for you that the sun don't shine?
Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you something to make you change your mind

And have you seen the old man
Outside the seaman's mission
Memory fading with
The medal ribbons that he wears.
In our winter city,
The rain cries a little pity
For one more forgotten hero
And a world that doesn't care

So how can you tell me you're lonely,
And say for you that the sun don't shine?
Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you something to make you change your mind

Bandits of the Acoustic Revolution - Dear Sergio

Lyrics:
Run, run, run all you do is fucking run but you’ll never run away from yourself. I know it’s hard but you’ve been there before and you know you’re gonna be there again. I don’t care what the stars may say because they always feed their bullshit to me. It’s kinda sad how you lost what you had and you’re never gonna have it again and so I say:

Hey Sergio, it’s getting kind of hot in here
And so I say:
Hey Sergio, you’ve got to get us out of here
And so I say:
Hey

Every other day you don’t care what they say because they always leave you two steps behind. You try to smile and it lasts for a while but they always send you back to the start. Eenie meenie miney mo they shoot down everyone you know and then they leave you there all alone. You wish they’d stop but they never give up and you know deep inside that you’re stuck and so I say:

Hey Sergio, it’s getting kind of hot in here
And so I say:
Hey Sergio, you’ve got to get us out of here
And so I say:
Hey

Sergio laughed for the last time today, He said “It never really bothered me: we all have dues to pay” Like a man that’s cut off at the knee, he hobbles and hobbles because nothing is free. So wake up, wake up, wake up but don’t cry because you’ll fuck up your make up and if you do, you won’t get laid, you won’t make money, no you won’t get paid. So you act so free, you act so free, everybody’s happy because you act so free. Well you might fool them, but you can’t fool me with your mindless chatter like “I don’t need them, I don’t need help” I don’t even need to see the end.

Hey Sergio, it’s getting kind of hot in here
And so I say:
Hey Sergio, you’ve got to get us out of here
And so I say:
Hey

Taking back Sunday

Great Romances Of The 20th Century

september never stays this cold
where i come from
and you know..
i'm not one for complaining
but i love the way you'd roll
excuses off the tip of your tongue
as i slowly fall apart, slowly, quietly
fall apart

this won't mean a thing come tomorrow
and that's exactly how i'll make it seem
'cause i'm still not sleeping,
thinking i've crawled home from worse than this

so please, please
i'm running out of sympathy!
and i never said i'd take this..
i never said i'd take this lying down

she says
"come on, come on, let's just get this over with"
i never said i'd take this lying down, let's just get this over with,
and i've crawled home from worse than this
she says
"come on, come on, let's just get this over with"
she says
"come on, come on.."

you always come close, but this never comes easy,
i still know everything
you always come close, but you never come easy,
you always come so close...
i still know everything

you always come close but this never comes easy
you always come... you come in close

i never said i'd take this lying down
but i've crawled home from worse than this

if it's not keeping you up nights
then what's the point?

*edit*

more lyrics, because i (heart) death cab :0

Death Cab for Cutie

Your Bruise

it's a backwards attraction to your forward eyes
but you're so far-sighted that you can't place trust
in what or who you recognize
we sped the plymouth cross the banks of the mississippi river
mary timony was smaller then a super ball...
chitter-chatter all these secrets started giving me the shivers
plain and simply broken down near olympia
i think your bruise was understanded,
'cause you can't feel this anymore
it's getting bluer and you can't keep faking
that you can't feel this anymore


-----

and THOSE are my crappy late-night lyrics d: yay for crappy taking back sunday

Cradle of Filth - Born in a Burial Gown

Sibilant and macabre
Walpurgis sauntered in
Skies litten with five-pointed stars
The work of crafts surpassing sin
As She graced Her window ledge
- An orphaned gypsy nymph
This issue of the forest's bed
Skin flushed with sipped absinthe -
Her eyes revealed, as Brocken's peak
Tried once concealing Hell
A snow white line of divine freaks
In riot, where they fell...

The circus lurches in, a ring of promised delight
For seven days and seven festival nights
What wicked wonders lie within the comfines
Of the panther's den

She watches from a maypole, on the rip of Her tongue
The restless spirit of Christmas to come
A Gretel sick of merely sucking Her thumb
Than gingerbread men

Spawned scorned, abhorred by the aerial
She was the light of the world going down
War-torn, forlorn and malarial
She was found
Born in a burial gown

Unloosed, the chain of Her god-given cross
Seduced, now pagan ribbons swathe Her repose
In a carnival of souls sold and similarly lost

Too many decades misfit and mislaid
In innocence, a tender legend of prey
Parades Her second coming, now they're running afraid

Spawned scorned, abhorred by the aerial
She was the light of the world going down
War-torn, forlorn and malarial
She was found
Born in a burial gown

Now She moves with a predator's guile
Beyond the firelit circle of life
She soothes your cold heart for a while
Then matches its beat, synching in with a knife
She wrestles Her dreams with a delicate case
Espied by Her cross on the wall
And should She awake, through embrace or mistake
She would take Jesus
Bless foot forward and all...

Sibiliant and at last
The circus crawled away
With another lover in its arms
Dancing on Her grave...

-----------------

A song that drove my neighbors to send their damn butler over to tell me to shut my music off.

So what if it's 3:00 AM!

[Dorian]

Black Sabbath - Heaven and Hell

Sing me a song, you're a singer
Do me a wrong, you're a bringer of evil
The Devil is never a maker
The less that you give, you're a taker
So it's on and on and on, it's Heaven and Hell, oh well

The lover of life's not a sinner
The ending is just a beginner
The closer you get to the meaning
the sooner you'll know that you're dreaming
So it's on and on and on, oh it's on and on and on
It goes on and on and on, Heaven and Hell

I can tell, fool, fool!

Well if it seems to be real, it's illusion
For every moment of truth, there's confusion in life
Love can be seen as the answer, but nobody bleeds for the dancer

And it's on and on, on and on and on....

They say that life's a carousel
Spinning fast, you've got to ride it well
The world is full of Kings and Queens
Who blind your eyes and steal your dreams

It's Heaven and Hell, oh well

And they'll tell you black is really white
The moon is just the sun at night
And when you walk in golden halls
You get to keep the gold that falls
It's Heaven and Hell, oh no!
Fool, fool!
You've got to bleed for the dancer!
Fool, fool!
Look for the answer!
Fool, fool, fool!


If you really read the lyrics, you'll notice that in every verse where they mention the word "Life" the don't mention heaven and hell. Excluding the second verse cause they're not mentioning life as in life, they are saying "A lover of life"

Basiclly Life is Heaven and Hell. It's what you make of it.

[Dorian]

Some want to think hope is lost see me stand alone
I can't do what others may want then I'll have no home

So for now wave good-bye and leave your hands held high
Hear this song of courage long into the night
So for now wave good-bye and leave your hands held high
Hear this song of courage long into the night

And the wind will bear my cry to all who hope to fly
Hear this song of courage ride into the night

Battles are fought by those with the courage to believe
They are won by those who find the heart
Find a heart to share
This heart that fills the soul will point the way to victory
If there's a fight then I'll be there, I'll be there

So for now wave good-bye, leave your hands held high
Hear this song of courage long into the night
And the wind will bear my cry to all who hope to fly
Lift your wings up high my friend fearless to the end
So for now wave good-bye, leave your hands held high
Hear this song of courage ride into the night

[Riel]

"She's so cold and human
It's something humans do
She stays so golden solo,she's so number 9
She's incredible math
Just incredible math.

And is she really human
She's just so something new
A waking lithium flower,just about to bloom
I smell lithium now
Smelling lithium now.

How is she when she doesn't surf
How is she when she doesn't surf
How is she when she doesn't surf
I wonder what she does when she wakes up
When she wakes up."

I love this closing theme song from Ghost in The Shell series.

[Dorian]

This is an awesome song. I dedicate it to Tanshin, Crush and the rest of the Ninja Crew. Much thanks to Crush's brother for the awesome rapping that he does.

Zenivstans

Tanshin, The Lone Dragoon
Taking my sword and killing under the moon
Sneak into your home like solid snake
You’ll be alive long enough to hear your own neck break
Move to the next house walking like a samurai
Head a little to the south stalking like a budokai

I kill five when I wake
I kill five guys before I rake
I kill five guys after I kill five guys
I kill five guys who killed five files

Everyone says I cause so much mayhem
Just because I kill thirteen guys before eight AM
You can’t blame me for slitting your necks
Doing it while you’re driving and causing some wrecks
You think you can step up then show me
But if you talk shit and do nothing then blow me
Get the fuck out my place acting like you know me
Wait to late I killed you go me

Back here I am
Another fucking jam
Don’t cross me I’ll cut you up like ham
Busting out rhymes not by myself
Using beats not off the shelf

Kevin doesn’t know shit
You know he’ll fucking blow it
You think he can rhyme just wasting time
Down on the floor he’s sucking his thumb
That’s fucking right my lyrics made him numb
Such a fucking bitch
I fixed his women’s itch
My dick went limp
On his fucking lip
Motherfuckers know that I’m the Mac pimp

Hey yo Tanshin yea I killed five guys
I picked them out of the air
Just like Mr. Miyagi flies
You think that makes you special?
You think that makes you smart?
You know I’m a million times the ninja that thou art

Throwing down the gauntlet
You ganna challenge me?
I’ll show you have ruthless this hyper ninja be
Just like all ninjas I enjoy a fight
Common Tanshin lets make this party right

Someone is bout to get punched in his face
Don’t run I hate to give you chase
Like to make my kill quick
Killed your face
Makes me sick
It’s your ass that I kick
I’ll show you what ninja trick
Zenislev stand and look cool
Even though inside you nothing but a fool
I’ll chop your fucking head in half
Cause I don’t give a fuck
Then I’ll look at it and laugh
Cause that’s just your luck

Don’t you hate it when you feel the shit coming on?
Then you go to shit it out and drop that bomb
But just when you push it to get out all the feces
Instead of a big log you get little recess pieces
But at least in the end you don’t have to wipe
As long as that paper’s clean there’s no need to gripe

When I spit out turds it just like a birds
That’s what I do when I take a poo
You’re ganan fight me on the mic
I’ll teach you like I taught that dike
You love your meet you love your fist
Put them together another fucking dis
That’s right I said it before I’ll say it again
I’m the best ninja in this here den

EDIT: This took me like 45 min to type up. Man I love Ninja Jams

Yeah, my brother is the shit when it comes to rapping on ninja jams. He's like MC Hammer with a katana.

I'm like THIS close to getting him to buy FFXI and come play with us.

[Gabriell]

I'm not a big fan of death metal, or whatever sub-genre you would classify this as.
However, there are two sections in this song, and the second section is this beutiful, jazz/blues/classic influenced part, which I love. And I think it's really cool that a band can go from something like that to something like this. So I'll only cover the part that I like.

Between the Buried and Me - Mordecai

Living dreams,
loving dreams,
awakening
to what I've always dreamt of.
The familiar sound of lovely love from the
love of my life will keep the notes coming.
From the reciting of the show,
from the plip and the shevanel,
from the grind that annoys,
and the sarcasm, they all hate.
forever I worship.
I'll kill, love, and hate for all of you.
Thank you for the best part of my life.

[Dorian]

OK, this next song is for Dive.

Here is why:

Dive always comes to me, crying his little eyes out. He's too sensitive. I don't know what to do anymore, so I wanna post this song 'cause I feel that it's about him. I hope he likes it.

Song for Dive.

[Wiryu]

The song works ha ha, dive, its ok /comfort
