This post is brought to you by the letter R.
If you respond - I'll assign you a letter and you are to find five songs that start with that letter and post your favorite lyrics.
I'll do flyboy_fox's when he replies. Here's my reply to the reply of insanepurin
"Radio Song" by R.E.M. featuring KRS-One
The world is collapsing around our ears
I turned up the radio
I can't hear it
When I got to your house, and called you out
I could tell that you had been crying
It's that same sing on the radio
Makes me sad!
I meant to turn it off
To say goodbye
To leave in quiet
Radio song
Hey hey hey
Everything to show
And everything to hide
Look in to my eyes
Listen
"Real World" by Matchbox 20
I wonder what it's like to be a superhero
I wonder where I'd go if I could fly around downtown
From some other planet, I get this funky high on a yellow sun
Boy, I bet my friends would all be stunned
They're stunned
Yeah
Straight up, what did you hope to learn about here?
If I was someone else, would this all fall apart?
Strange, where were you when we started this gig?
I wish the real world would just stop hassling me
And you
And you
And me!
"Re-Creation" by Orgy
I could've made a wish but it wouldn't come true
The white trash bitch controls you
Born and raised in a trailer park
And all the faces of a lie surround you
Your simple pleasures come from someone else's pain
The way you like it
For you
I've become what you made me
And we make this new religion
To escape what we've become
(Your signal's fading so let go)
and we make this new religion
(As the program showed us)
To escape what we've become
"Reject" by Green Day
Who the hell are you to tell me
What I am
And what's my master plan?
What makes you think that it includes you?
Self-righteous wealth
Stop flattering yourself
So when the smoke clears here I am
Your reject all-American
Sucking up your social sect
Making you a nervous wreck
To hell and back and hell again I've gone
You're not my type!
Not my type!
"Runaway" by Linkin Park
Paper bags and angry voices
Under a sky of dust
Another wave of tension
Has more than filled me up
All my talk of taking action
These words were never true
Now I find myself in question (they point the finger at me again)
Guilty by association ( you point the finger at me again)
I wanna run away
Never say goodbye
I wanna know the truth
Instead of wondering why
I wanna know the answers
No more lies
I wanna shut the door
And open up my mind
In other news, I am just so totally happy right now.
