Song/Quote of the day!

[Eternal]

I was waiting up for you
Well I worried about you
Just where the hell were you?

I want to help you
I want to bring you back to life
But your sad, sick brain knows one damn thing
And it comes out every night.

Just don't let me go
Don't let me go

Your choices they're hard to make
You make this harder every day
I'm sure I'm leaving
I'm more deceiving
I'm fumbling for words to say

I gave you everything I had
Well I loved you till death
That heart's going to beat
If you're able to breathe
Surely you're dead to me

The shivers and shakes your body makes
Are going to go away
That's the price you pay for the games you play
And nothing's going to change

[Jack Lowden]

I tried to be perfect, tried to be honest
Tried to be everything that you ever wanted
I tried to be stronger, tried to be smarter
Tried to be everything but you

[Storyteller.]

Hear me calling, I'm free falling.
What is wrong and right now?
Lord, I need some light now.
Show me, am I, living a lie?
Was it all for glory
that I wrote my story?

I've been trying,
always fighting.
Thought it made me stronger.
Now I fight no longer.

Don't know when it really started.
Was it my one way out
from the broken hearted?
Growing older made me colder,
as I lost direction,
struggling for perfection.

[Stargazed.]

It's like she stole my will to breathe.

[craz33me]

We walk alone
In the unknown
We live to win another victory
We are the young
Dying sons
We live to change the face of history so be afraid
It's the price we pay
The only easy day was yesterday
So hear our voice,
We have a choice,
It's time to face it

We are one
We are one
We are one
We will stand together
Number one
Number one
The chosen ones
We are one
We are one
We will fight forever
We are one and we won't die young

We are the bold
United souls
We live to win another victory
Our sacred scars
Show who we are
And tell the story of our memories

Don't be afraid
It's the price we pay
The only easy day was yesterday
So hear our voice
We have a choice
It's time to face it

We are one
We are one
We are one
We will stand together
Number one
Number one
The chosen ones
We are one
We are one
We will fight forever
We are one and we won't die young

We walk alone
In the unknown
We live to win another victory
Our sacred scars
Show who we are
It's time to face it

So be afraid
It's the price we pay
The only easy day was yesterday
So hear our voice
We have a choice
It's time to face it

We are one
We are one
We are one
We will stand together
Number one
Number one
The chosen ones
We are one
We are one
We will fight forever
We are one and we won't die young

[Laurasaurus]

But here I try,
Just keep on trying,
Though life is short,
And time is flying...

[Choose]

Not lyrics, but a decent-sized poem I happened to read and enjoy:

First, I will seal up its container of life so that not
one drop spills itself upon the sand.
I will waste not a moment mourning yesterday's misfortunes,
yesterday's defeats, yesterday's aches of the heart,
for why should I throw good after bad?

Can sand flow upward in the hour glass?
Will the sun rise where it sets and set where it rises?
Can I relieve the errors of yesterday and right them?
Can I call back yesterday's wounds and make them whole?
Can I become younger than yesterday?
Can I take back the evil that was spoken, the blows that were struck,
the pain that was caused?
No. Yesterday is buried forever and I will think of it no more.

I will live this day as if it is my last.

And what then shall I do?
Forgetting yesterday, neither will I think of tomorrow.
Why should I throw now after maybe?
Can tomorrow's sand flow through the glass before today's?
Will the sun rise twice this morning?
Can I perform tomorrow's deeds while standing in today's path?
Can I place tomorrow's gold in today's purse?
Can tomorrow's death cast its shadow backwards and darken today's joy?
Should I concern myuself over events which I may never witness?
Should I torment myself with problems that may never come to pass?
No! Tomorrow lies buried with yesterday, and I will think of it no more.

I will live this day as if it is my last.

This day is all I have and these hours and now my eternity.
I greet this sunrise with cries of joy as a prisoner who is reprieved from death.
I lift mine arms with thanks for this priceless gift of a new day.
So too, I will beat upon my heart with gratitude as I
consider all who greeted yesterday's sunrise
who are no longer with the living today.
I am indeed a fortunate man and today's hours are but a bonus, undeserved.
Why have I been allowed to live this extra day when others,
far better than I, have departed?
Is it that they have accomplished their purpose while mine is yet to be achieved?
Is this another opportunity for me to become the man I know I can be?
Is there a purpose in nature?
Is this my day to excel?

I will live this day as if it is my last.

I have but one life and life is naught but a measurement of time.
When I waste one I destroy the other.
If I waste today I destroy the last page of my life.
Therefore, each hour of this day will I chreish for it can never return.
It cannot be banked today to be withdrawn on the morrow,
for who can trap the wind?
Each minute of this day will I grasp with both hands and
fondle with love for its value is beyond price.
What dying man can purchase another breath though
he willingly give all his gold?
What price dare I place on the hour ahead?
I will make them priceless!

I will live this day as if it is my last.

The duties of today I shall fulfill today.
Today I shall fondle my children while they are young;
tomorrow they will be gone, and so will I.
Today I shall embrace my woman with sweet kisses;
tomorrow she will be gone and so will I.
Today I shall lift up a friend in need; tomorrow he will no longer cry for help,
nor will I hear his cries.
Today I shall give myself in sacrifice and work;
tomorrow I will have nothing to give, and there will be none to receive.

I will live this day as if it is my last.

I will avoid with fury the killers of time.
Procrastination I will destroy with action; doubt I will bury under faith;
fear I will dismember with confidence.
Where there are idle mouths, I will listen not;
where there are idle hands, I will linger not;
where there are idle bodies, I will visit not.
Henceforth I know that to count idleness is to steal food,
clothing, and warmth from those I love.
I am not a thief.
I am a man of love and today is my last chance to prove
my love and my greatness.

I will live this day as if it is my last.

And if it is my last, it will be my greatest monument.
This day I will make the best day of my life.
This day I will drink every minute to its full.
I will savor its taste and give thanks.
I will maketh every hour count and each minute
I will trade only for something of value.
I will labor harder than ever before and push my
muscles until they cry for relief,
and then I will continue.
I will make more calls than ever before.
I will earn more gold than ever before.
Each minute of today will be more fruitful than hours of yesterday.
My last much be my best.

I will live this day as if it is my last.
And if it is not, I shall fall to my knees and give thanks.

[Stargazed.]

Wherever you are is where I want to be
Look around and tell me what you see
Everything, everything but me
No matter how many miles stand in between
In my heart is where you'll be
Holdin' on to all our dreams
With everything, everything but me

[Obliviate]

We don't want hate.
Be positive and be hopeful
Feel no pain

[Stargazed.]

They say time heals everything, but I'm still waiting.

[Laurasaurus]

Here comes goodbye, here comes the last time
Here comes the start of every sleepless night,
The first of every tear I'm gonna cry...

[Jack Lowden]

We've all been sorry, we've all been hurt
But how we survive, is what makes us who we are

[Storyteller.]

I guess that this is
where we've come to.
If you don't want to,
then you don't have to believe me.
But I won't be there when you go down.
Just so you know now,
you're on your own now, believe me.

I don't want to be the one to blame.
You like fun and games;
keep playing 'em.
I'm just saying, think back then,
we was like one and the same,
on the right track
but I was on the wrong train.
Just like that.
Now you've got a face to pain
and the devil's got a
fresh new place to play
in your brain like a maze
you can never escape;
the rain every damn day is
the same shade of grey.

Hey. I used have a little bit of a plan,
used to have a concept of where I stand.
But that concept slipped right out of my hands.
Now I don't really even know who I am.
Yo, what do I have to say?
Maybe I should do what I
have to do to break free.
Whatever happens to you, we'll see,
but it's not gonna happen with me.

Back then, I thought you were just like me,
somebody who could see all the pain I see,
but you proved to me unintentionally
that you would self-destruct eventually.
Now I'm thinking like the
mistake I made doesn't hurt,
but it's not gonna work,
'cause it's really much worse than I thought.
I wished you were something that you were not
and now this guilt is really all that I got.

You turned your back
and walked away in shame.
All you got is a memory of pain.
Nothing makes sense
so you stare at the ground.
I hear your voice in my head
when no one else is around.
What do I have to say?
Maybe I should do what I
have to do to break free.
Whatever happens to you, we'll see,
but it's not gonna happen with me.

[Eternal]

I saw a bridge it pieced together two unlikely hearts.
I thought it must have been illusions or a dream of mine.
My narrow mind, my fragile heart exploded in my chest.
I've seen this beautiful season it's just not repeating.
I've seen some wonderful reasons it's just not quite the season.

I felt a calm, it breath some rest into my brothers lungs.
I hope they held it in and felt the peace that I was given.
My restless heart, my wandering mind imploded in my head.
I feel this patient composure just waiting on some closure.
Tired connect I give my sleep and every word of mine.
I blame this building you just bring me back here every time.
I feel we've had us some closure lets just keep up composure.
I'm feeling like I'm going to die.

Don't want to go, don't want to go, don't want to leave the south.
Shut the door, shut the door…can't see me now.
Fall back, fall back, don't leave me out.
I felt a hand leave my hand, it covered up my mouth.

You were a violent crash and I felt the earth shake
You sudden impact, Oh God I need a new way.
Burn it, burn it, burn it, burn it, burn it, burn it, let it burn.
Hate it, hate it, love it, hate, God you know I love to hate it.
Breathe, breathe, breathe, you got to let it in.

[Jack Lowden]

I'm tired, so let me be broken

[Laurasaurus]

Fade in, start the scene
Enter beautiful girl
But things are not what they seem
As we stand at the edge of the world...

[oldaccount]

You don't know anything
You don't know anything
You don't know anything about me


Get away, get away from me
Get away (never amount to)
Get away, get away from me
Get away (you will never amount to shit)

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

go... a... way... stay away from me!!
(an obscure linkin park lyric. most people can't understand it; background noise.)

[craz33me]

I might be crazy, but baby I'm crazy for you.

[savealife723]

and we can't pretend like you don't pretend.
you know you are, you've always been.

because i fall down,
and you fall out of love with me.
and everything we used to be.
and i can't say that my heart breaks in two for you.
because like one, two, three, and it's over.

[better-than-ecstasy]

While I'm sitting here crying and trying to see
yeah where ever you are baby
Now I am sure you moved on
and aren't thinking twice about me and you tonight
Tonight your memory burns like a fire
with every one it grows higher and higher
I can't get over it

[Magical Forest.]

Have you ever been so lonely,
No one there to hold?
Pull me in or disown me,
And then climb inside.
My arms are open wide.
Have a look inside.

It is not that I am scared to learn,
Why I'm empty inside.
hold my hand or show some concern,
If I live or die.
My eyes are open wide.
Help me look inside.

I hear the water drip from the faucet.
It's sweetly falling in tune.
I'm gently closing the closet.
I fall to the floor,
and crawl to my room.
The thought of ending it soon...
Just let me sleep in my room.

Hear me cry! cry! cry!
I hear a knock at the front door.
Don't come in!
I try to look at you
But I can't stop shaking.
Leave me alone. Just go away.
Mother I'm so scared.

Empty bed and all of the sheets are gone,
They're wrapped around me and you.
All is quiet but the drop of a gun.
I want to belong...to someone...
But maybe life's not for everyone

[Stargazed.]

I'm gunna pack my bags and never look back
Run a parallel line with the railroad tracks
And make my getaway

I'll put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down
Leave everybody sleeping in this sleepy town tonight
At the break of day, I'll be a runaway.

[oldaccount]

Billie Jean is not my lover, she's just a girl...

[Eternal]

Can’t complain about everything,
This one leaves me with a permanent stain all over me.
I can’t take the way you look at me.

Those eyes could never lie.
The truth will find its way out.
In time I’ll pour it out,
Until then I’ll keep you inside my head.

Take a look at what’s beneath your feet,
Flowers that once made you smile
Have turned to stone now they’re grinding down your teeth.
Walls around your mind can’t keep you safe,
Build them up with steel and stone and watch your soul escape.

Get through today and know that you are secure.
Get a grasp on the fact that this is what you’re here for.
You can quake at the thought of it.
Shakes you up quite a bit
And all you do is think and thinking gets you nowhere.

Just wait for clarity you say this will all make sense.
Just stay here with me.
I can’t take the way you look at me.
Control, I have lost.
There’s no sense in clawing myself out
And I know you can’t live without taking all that’s left inside my head.

[Storyteller.]

Hey I hope it's sunny
wherever you are.

[Laurasaurus]

One day, the wind will come and carry us away...

[Complete Love.]

If I wasn't here tomorrow
Would anybody care
If my time was up I'd wanna know
You were happy I was there
If I wasn't here tomorrow
Would anyone lose sleep
If I wasn't hard and hollow
Then maybe you would miss me

I know I'm a mess and I wanna be someone
Someone that I like better
I can never forget
So don't remind me of it forever

What if I just pulled myself together
Would it matter at all
What if I just try not to remember
Would it matter at all
All the chances that have passed me by
Would it matter if I gave it one more try
Would it matter at all
.....

If I wasn't here tomorrow
Would anybody care
Still stuck in this sorrow
Going nowhere

All the chances that have passed me by
Would it matter if I gave it one more try
Would it matter at all

Skillet- Would it matter

[Bibliophile]

Tripping hard falling down onto the ground
'cause I can't stand up
and I can't fall down
and I'm somewhere in the middle of this

Well I find it hard
I always tried to find the sane life
but I don't like the way things are

[better-than-ecstasy]

May not be what you want, but its what you need
sometimes the only way around it is to let love do its work
yea let it hurt

[The Dread Pirate Roberts]

Seventeen
a beauty queen
She made a ride that caused a scene in the town

Her long blonde hair
hanging down around her knees
All the cats who dig striptease
praying for a little breeze

Her long blonde hair
falling down across her arms
hiding all the lady's charms

Lady Godiva

She found fame
and made her name
A Hollywood director came into town

And said to her (hey!),
How'd you like to be a star?
You're a girl who could go far
[| From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/a/alex-d...va-lyrics.html |]
'specially dressed the way you are

She smiled at him
and gave her pretty head a shake
That was Lady G's mistake

Oh, Lady Godiva

He directs Certificate X
and people now are craning their necks
to see her

'Cause she's a star
One that everybody knows
finished with her striptease shows
Now she can't afford her clothes

Her long blonde hair
lying on a barber's floor
Doesn't need it long any more

Lady Godiva

[Storyteller.]

You can't feel the heat until
you hold your hand over the flame.
You have to cross the line just to
remember where it lays.
You won't know your worth now,
son, until you take a hit.
And you won't find the beat
until you lose yourself in it...

You can't fill your cup until you empty all it has.
You can't understand what lays ahead
if you don't understand the past.
You'll never learn to fly now
'til you're standing at the cliff.
And you can't truly love
until you've given up on it.

That's why we won't back down,
we won't run and hide.
Yeah, 'cause these are the things
that we can't deny.
I'm passing over you like a satellite,
so catch me if I fall...

She told me that she never
could face the world again,
so I offer up a plan.

We'll sneak out while they sleep,
and sail off in the night.
We'll come clean and start over
the rest of our lives.
When we're gone we'll stay gone.
Out of sight, out of mind.
It's not too late;
we have the rest of our lives.

[cat4hurricane]

Unable to remember, but too annoyed to forget- unknown

And all at once, my world came cranking down infront of me, like the iron fist of King George - Me.

[Kindred]

It's like you're a drug
It's like you're a demon I can't face down
It's like I'm stuck
It's like I'm running from you all the time
And I know I let you have all the power
It's like the only company I seek is misery all around
It's like you're a leech
Sucking the life from me
It's like I can't breathe
Without you inside of me
And I know I let you have all the power
And I realize I'm never gonna quit you over time

It's like I can't breathe
It's like I can't see anything
Nothing but you
I'm addicted to you
It's like I can't think
Without you interrupting me
In my thoughts
In my dreams
You've taken over me
It's like I'm not me
It's like I'm not me

It's like I'm lost
It's like I'm giving up slowly
It's like you're a ghost that's haunting me
Leave me alone
And I know these voices in my head
Are mine alone
And I know I'll never change my ways
If I don't give you up now

[Eternal]

This is traditional misfiring at its finest
There’s nobody left to fight for our side and
All my enemies are at my back door
All my friends are at my back door

I welcomed them in with open arms
so they drew their guns from their belts and walked right in
They laid me by the fire to watch me dry my eyes out
Because we’re just soldiers looking for a war to fight

I saw a hunter crawling out in the distance, he’s tired, his legs are tied
He’s dehydrated, drowning in the well
Gasoline fields in my backyard
They’re cavernous, bridgeless and unbound
Their ruinous remains will mark all our graves

I don’t have much to tell the travelers down the road
cause they just stopped by looking for a place to rest
And they’ll disappear when morning comes
Shadows on the landscape block the sun
cause this isn’t where they wanted to be found

[Defying Gravity]

My best friend gave me the best advice
He said each day's a gift and not a given right
Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind
And try to take the path less traveled by
That first step you take is the longest stride

If today was your last day
And tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
If today was your last day

Against the grain should be a way of life
What's worth the prize is always worth the fight
Every second counts 'cause there's no second try
So live like you'll never live it twice
Don't take the free ride in your own life

If today was your last day
And tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
Would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories
Would you forgive your enemies?
Would you find that one you're dreamin' of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you finally fall in love
If today was your last day

If today was your last day
Would you make your mark by mending a broken heart?
You know it's never too late to shoot for the stars
Regardless of who you are
So do whatever it takes
'Cause you can't rewind a moment in this life
Let nothin' stand in your way
Cause the hands of time are never on your side

If today was your last day
And tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?

Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
Would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories
Would you forgive your enemies?
Would you find that one you're dreamin' of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you finally fall in love
If today was your last day

[Bibliophile]

"Sit in the chair and be good now" And become all that they told you
The white coats enter her room
And I'm callin' my baby
Callin' my baby
Callin' my baby
Callin' everybody else's girl
Maybe one day she'll be her own

[Stargazed.]

Every heart in the room will melt
This is a feeling I've never felt.

[better-than-ecstasy]

I can usually drink you right off of my mind
But I miss you tonight
I can normally push you right out of my heart
But I'm too tired to fight

Yeah the whole thing begins
And I let you sink into my veins
And I feel the pain like it's new
Everything that we were,
Everything that you said,
Everything that I did and that I couldn't do
Plays through tonight

Tonight your memory burns like a fire
With everyone it grows higher and higher
And I can't get over it, I just can't put out this love
I just sit in these flames and pray that you'll come back
Close my eyes tightly, hold on and hope that I'm dreaming
Come wake me up

Turn the TV up loud just to drown out your voice, but I can't forget
Now I'm all out of ideas and baby I'm down to my last cigarette
Yeah, you're probably asleep deep inside of your dreams while I’m sitting here crying and trying to
see
Yeah, wherever you are baby now I am sure you moved on and aren't thinking twice about me
And you tonight

Tonight your memory burns like a fire
With everyone it grows higher and higher
I can't get over it, I just can't put out this love
I just sit in these flames and pray that you'll come back
Close my eyes tightly, hold on and hope that I'm dreaming

I know that you're movin' on
I know I should give you up
But I keep hopin' that you'll trip and fall back in love
Time's not healin' anything
Baby, this pain is worse than it ever was
I know that you can't hear me, but baby I need you to save me tonight

Tonight your memory burns like a fire
With everyone it grows higher and higher
I can't get over it, I just can't put out this love
I just sit in these flames and pray that you'll come back
Close my eyes tightly, hold on and hope that I'm dreaming
Come wake me up
Oh, I'm dreaming
Come wake me up
Oh, I'm dreaming

[WashoutThePain]

The day I first met you
You told me you'd never fall in love
But now that I get you
I know fear is what it really was

Now here we are
So close yet so far
Haven't I passed the test
When will you realise
Baby, I'm not like the rest

Don't wanna break your heart
Wanna give your heart a break
I know you're scared it's wrong
Like you might make a mistake
There's just one life to live
And there's no time to waste, to waste
So let me give your heart a break, give your heart a break
Let me give your heart a break, your heart a break
Oh yeah, yeah

On Sunday you went home alone
There were tears in your eyes
I called your cell phone, my love
But you did not reply

The world is ours if we want it
We can take it if you just take my hand
There's no turning back now
Baby, try to understand

Don't wanna break your heart
Wanna give your heart a break
I know you're scared it's wrong
Like you might make a mistake
There's just one life to live
And there's no time to waste, to waste
So let me give your heart a break, give your heart a break
Let me give your heart a break, your heart a break

There's just so much you can take
Give your heart a break
Let me give your heart a break, your heart a break
Oh yeah, yeah

When your lips are on my lips
And our hearts beat as one
But you slip out of my fingertips
Every time you run, whoa-oh-whoa-oh-oh

Don't wanna break your heart
Wanna give your heart a break
I know you're scared it's wrong

Like you might make a mistake
There's just one life to live
And there's no time to waste, to waste
So let me give your heart a break
(Let me give your heart a break)

'Cause you've been hurt before
I can see it in your eyes
You try to smile it away, some things you can't disguise
Don't wanna break your heart
Maybe, I can ease the ache, the ache
So let me give your heart a break, give your heart a break
Let me give your heart a break, your heart a break

There's just so much you can take
Give your heart a break
Let me give your heart a break (your heart), your heart a break (a break)
Oh yeah, yeah

The day I first met you
You told me you'd never fall in love

[Magical Forest.]

Something has left my life,
And I don't know where it went to.
Somebody caused me strife,
And it's not what I was seeking.

Didn't you see me, didn't you hear me?
Didn't you see me standing there?
Why did you turn out the lights?
Did you know that I was sleeping?

Say a prayer for me,
Help me to feel the strength, I did.
My identity, has it been taken?
Is my heart breakin' on me?

All my plans fell through my hands,
They fell through my hands on me.
All my dreams it suddenly seems,
It suddenly seems,
Empty
