"Your words are shallow and dull against my skin.
Their cold bitter edge cuts deeper within.
I don't appreciate the words you
say behind my back, but it's OK.
I'm not one for getting mad.
I don't need apologies.
I don't fall for sympathy.
You can't win me back.
This will be the last time I'm kissing you good-bye.
You left me with a scar across my back.
These stones are breaking my bones as they crush me.
Your careless remarks left me here to bleed.
I don't appreciate the games you
play without regret but it's OK.
I'm not one for getting mad.
Your knife, my back"
"Whispers in the wind carry messages to lovers far.
Tales of lost romance and of
that missed chance and fleeting hearts.
Yesterday, befriends anger with words you say.
Don't let those dying ships sail away.
Promise me you'll never say die.
Ashes in the sand bury witnesses to broken hearts.
Scars of lone memories and of
those crushed dreams and open arms.
Love songs and tidal waves have washed me away."
"It's a bone cold night.
I'm breathing in the air.
It's freezing up my lungs, as I
fight for words to share with you,
to tell you what you've done to me.
You ripped me from my set in stone complacency.
You rose from the ashes
Like a phoenix with a heartache.
Now you're taking me away with you
tonight and I know that I can't fly.
But when I'm in your arms, I'm holding up the sky.
It's a bone cold night.
I'm writhing in despair.
It's freezing up my heart, as you
fight for words to share with me,
to tell me what my eyes can't see.
You ripped me from my set in stone complacency.
And there you were, standing there,
Like an answer to a dream I never had.
You showed me everything, showed me everything,
showed me everything I never knew about me."
"We're on the edge of our youth,
the days are getting long.
It seems the times of our lives have all
come and gone, but we know better.
We've just begun.
They think their answers to this
life will satisfy our needs.
We are so different.
We are another breed.
There's nothing you can do or say,
to make us choose another way.
There's nothing you can do or say,
to make us go away."
"I'm sick and tired of watching over you.
Never knowing what you're gonna do.
Every step you take is closer
and closer to falling far away.
What's It gonna take, what's
It take to make you see.
If it all came down tonight.
Safe from the losing fight."
"Love, is it all that you want.
Is it everything you hope for.
Love, is it more than the word that
you use when you look at her.
Love, it will push you around.
It will make you a poor man.
Change your picture of heaven, heaven.
Love, it will make you a man.
It will make you a child again.
Love, does it keep you awake.
Does it change everything you see.
Love, is it worth what you give.
Is it everything you need.
Love. Love, is it all that you want.
Is it everything you've worked for.
Love, is it wearing you down...love."
"The cold October air is blowing in my hair.
And I'm losing everything I never thought I would.
Where is that old playground.
Where is that old sundown, when I
would come home late an hour or two.
These are the days when we will
see all our yesterdays are memories.
The tides will rise.
The winds will turn.
And we are drowning and growing from the burn.
The red October leaves hold on to barren trees.
And frailty is where we became so strong.
Where is that old gun fight.
Where is that old twilight, when
fire flies were on the run."
"You shut me off, and turn your back on me.
But I'll be waiting outside when you leave.
All that I can say is what I've
said a million times before.
Those words, those words will never change.
And I will sing and I will scream
but I can't make you hear me.
But I won't stop cause there's a
chance you'll start listening.
Do you hear the music play.
Do you see the tears on my face.
The volume is dying, and like a
sweet song everything will end.
You're caught up in rejecting the truth.
That you don't see the danger around you.
All that I can say is what I've
said a million times before.
Those words, those words will never change."
if you know any of these songs, or let along the band that did them, you will probably be my best friend. but i don't expect you to know. cuz i doubt you've heard of them.
i just find some of the lyrics relevant to my life right now.
