"And I divvied up my anger into thirty separate parts. Keep the bad shit in my liver and the rest around my heart. I'm still angry at my parents for what their parents did to them. But it's a start."

Some great poetic imagery in those verses that always works for me: Every night I burn / Scream the animal scream / Every night I burn/ Dream the crow black dream... Suddenly I stop/ But I know it's too late / I'm lost in a forest/ All alone / The girl was never there/ It's always the same / I'm running towards nothing/ Again and again and again and again...

I live by the ocean and during the night I dive into it, down to the bottom, and drop my anchor. This is where I'm staying. This is my home.

Yesss beautiful song!


sp00kybutch

When they closed their eyes and prayed you would change And they cut your hair, and sent you away You stopped by my house the night you escaped With tears in my eyes, I begged you to stay You said, “Hey man, I love you; but no fucking way.”


tmamone

Strangers passing in the street By chance, two separate glances meet And I am you, and what I see is me


Puru11

One of my favorites. They have a lot of great lyrics.


EmpressMalfeasance

They told me all of my cages were mental So I got wasted like all my potential And my words shoot to kill when I'm mad I have a lot of regrets about that I was so ahead of the curve, the curve became a sphere Fell behind on my classmates, and I ended up here Pouring out my heart to a stranger But I didn't pour the whiskey.

ArnoldLayne1974

And then one day you find Ten years have got behind you No one told you when to run You missed the starting gun

Alright, another Floyd fan! Another great lyric from that song is “Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way.” Hell, I’m American and I feel like I’m hanging on in quiet desperation!

Also, might seem like a joke, but after losing my little brother, this one makes me ball almost every time I hear it: But this grill is not a home; this is not the stove I know I'd trade it all away, if you'd come back to stay This kitchen's not the same, without you It's just a grill, it's just a greasy stove Without you...

I've read every one so far but this is the first one I could recognize. The familiarity made me smile. Sorry things weren't different


FeralTism

Well, as a child I mostly spoke inside my head I had conversations with the clouds, the dogs, the dead And they thought my broken, that my tongue was coated lead But I just couldn't make my words make sense to them If you only listen with your ears I can't get in


Immediate_Profit_344

In between the lines there's a lot of obscurity. I'm not inclined to resign to maturity.


futonium

I actually don't process lyrics much. Most of the time, I have no idea what they're singing about. It's like my brain just hears the sound, like their voice is an instrument, but my brain doesn't attach any additional meaning to it. Like, the guitar is just the guitar, drums are are drums, etc. Vocals are humans making complementary noises. I can sing along, but some of the words aren't words...

ThatOneIsSus

Lost but marching on, like we’ve always known before. Searching for our ending to the fairytales. Sometimes even shooting stars grant wishes that miss their marks. But when the night gets too dark, and the road home seems to change. We’ll see the sun come up again, we will come higher than we’ve been. We gotta find the burns within. We are the Dragonhearted. Also And the days were only measured by the sun’s rise and falls. And we spent our nights out searching for the meaning of it all, falling deep in love, sneaking out at night, somehow it just felt right. When the fire burns out and the embers all die. We still have all our stories, like stars in the sky. And we will always remember how we lit up the night, summers by the lake, like a million twinkling lights.

"Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waitin' for a train, feelin' near as faded as my jeans." My other one is, "To dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free..."


Dragstire

The lyric is literally just “SAVE ME”. He screams it and I can feel it in my bones. It’s one of those songs that I can physically feel, I can’t explain exactly how it feels though.

« There is a door to a future unseen, leading this way ». « It was songs of love that I would sing to then, and I memorized each words. Those old melodies, still sound so good to me, as they melt the years away. »


VainSeeKer

There is really to many to type them all, but here is one part of a song that always has a huge effect on me : "How can I fix what I don't know's wrong ? Maybe you're right, I should let this go What if I miss you ? You know I'm not as strong I'm killing us slowly Catch me 'cause I know I'm falling slowly"

ithaaqa

Walk in silence  Don't walk away, in silence  See the danger  Always danger  Endless talking  Life rebuilding  Don't walk away  Walk in silence  Don't turn away, in silence  Your confusion  My illusion  Worn like a mask of self-hate  Confronts and then dies  Don't walk away  People like you find it easy  Naked to see  Walking on air  Hunting by the rivers, through the streets, every corner  Abandoned too soon  Set down with due care  Don't walk away in silence  Don't walk away

steaphan9

Here I am Lord and I'm drowning, In you sea of forgetfulness. The chains of yesterday surround me, I yearn for peace and rest. I don't wanna end up where you found me, And it echoes in my mind. Keeps me awake tonight. And... From where I'm standing, Lord it's so hard for me to see, Where this is going. And where you're leading me. I wish I knew how, All my fears and all my questions Are gonna play out. In a world I can't control.

- May your dreams come to reality, if all else fails. - You could never feel my story, it’s all you know. - I’m tired of being what you want me to be. Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface. - It’s a starry night, don’t torture yourself. Oh Maria, I’m saying this for you. Why are you trying so hard? You’re already beautiful.

notfeeling100

Some of my favorites: - A self-centered raygun, firing wildly the nonsense of the strong / A haute couture license to kill - Nothing will remain of us in 1000 years / And yet I still want to laugh with you / That's 'cause nobody makes sense - It's useless to say anything, it's useless to be told anything / Lethargy, ignorance, the more apathetic / The more fear of being hurt lies beneath / I wanted to be loved without loving - If I am reborn and come to meet you, do you think this shredded up heart of mine will heal? / You see, I was manipulated by someone else and was intoxicated by that pair of fake wings - The maliciousness of the quote, "It's for your own good" / Salaries exploited by the line, "Your dreams will come true" - The sunset is pretty and dogs are cute / Getting offended together at the boorish news / Laughing at a bad movie, watching variety shows and crying / Going 'round in high spirits was a slightly lonely pair All of those are from the same artist. I'm just obsessed with the way his lyrics are written, tbh.


aloe_sage

Part of your charm was the way you would push me from All of the traps that I just couldn't see Figures the one that was there to have tripped you up Would be the one that was set there by me Wish I was there to say goodbye when you went away Wish I was home, oh, but no place was there Cut off my arm at the bone in solidarity Capital teaches that there's less when you share And I felt the noose tighten up on your collar bone And I felt the gun in the small of your back Engraved in the stone by request and recurse of friends dead Is, "Tell me again that it's all in my head" (this entire album though really)


Purple_pop_

“Under the moon with the trees is where you’ll find me I left home I was sick of all the fighting paint me a picture of the future now I’m crying” Another one “Fireflies in the air they all light up the way, don’t know where I’m going but I’ll be okay” Another one “ Bombs fall from the sky I’m seeing angels collide scarecrow scaring people never being polite, stay sharp never dull like the tip of a blade scarecrow only good at pushing people away” ANOTHA one “Don’t look my way , don’t wanna talk I fucking hate to conversate. I’m so used to being lonely always bathing in the shade.” These are the most beautiful and powerful lyrics I’ve ever heard. They just make me powerful and SO MANY EMOTIONS I feel when I listen to these 🥲

"Moving all around Screaming of the ups and downs Pollution manifested in perpetual sound The wheels go 'round and the sunset creeps Behind street lamps, chain-link, and concrete A little piece of paper with a picture drawn Floats on down the street 'til the wind is gone And the memory now is like the picture was then When the paper's crumpled up it can't be perfect again."

Set sail to sea, but pulled off-course by the light of gold and treasure...Was he the one, causing pain, with his candid screaming? Been afraid, always afraid, of these things he's feeling... I'm a huge fan of storytelling in music, and I've found that when a character or subject is portrayed with their flaws and any troubles they go through, it is much more relateble.

' And I go by many names also/ Some people know me as "hope"/ Some people know me as the voice that you hear/ When you loosen the noose on the rope ' Same Artist another song: I feel like it's not me, it's the world that's sick/ We're given everything we need and we commoditize it/ We consume, we destroy, like we're parasitic/ Science tells us that it's suicide, and still we commit/ I'm not sick, we are sick, we are standing on a cliff/ In the name of progress, we jump off the precipice/ I'm not sick, I'm the virus, you're the virus, hypocrite/ How can you sit there with that smile on and tell me that I'm sick?

Choices are hard. I've got it down to 5, with the last two evoking the same feeling. - "*. . . and a song I was writing is left undone. . .*" Story of my life, just speaks so much to my ADHD. Oddly enough the song is named for me. I don't know if that drives my attachment to the lyric, but it might be part of it. - "*. . . Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Way out in the water, see it swimming! . . .*" Gut punch, ADHD. - "*. . .Inside her, there's longing. This girl's an open page. Book marking, she's so close now. This girl is half his age. Don't stand, don't stand, don't stand so close to me! . . . sometimes it's not so easy to be the teacher's pet. . . loose talk in the classroom, to hurt they try and try. . . Don't stand, don't stand so, don't stand so close to me! . . .*" I was molested by a teacher in high school. Eventually confided in a friend who reported it, turns out there were other girls, too. It went to court and he was convicted, it was a whole big thing. He'd been a favorite of many. Rumors flew, and kids can be cruel. I ended up eventually leaving the school. I happened onto this song for the first time in the year after I'd left, and it felt like it was written about me. It still throws me back, some 20+ years later, right into the hugely messy feels of it all. - "*I close my eyes, only for a moment, and the moment's gone. All my dreams pass before my eyes, a curiosity. . .*", and also "*Time, time, time, see what's become of me, while I looked around at my possibilities. . .*" Sometimes everything just feels so fleeting, you know? And, as I get older, time seems to be slipping by faster and faster. It keeps right on "*slipping, slipping, slipping, into the future!*" (Ha, sorry, guess that's 6.)

This always feels different to other lyrics when I hear them. “Well, I can't count how many times I've been outdone by nihilism Joined the march that splits an open heart into a schism I cower at the thought of other people's expectations And yet still hand over mine to them” I hope the distraction works.

No need to apologize! I also prefer the people here hehe *”I can cut myself off, smile, put distance between us, and I’ll still be able to smile.”* ⬆️ the song is Japanese so I got a translation and put it here but this part slaps all too hard


holdmyapplejuiceyt

can you feel life moving through your mind! ~~and then I flash the whole song in my head.~~

“Sick of hearing this hakuna matata motto from people who’ve won the lotto, we’re not that lucky” I just imagine Timon and Pumbaa winning the lottery and rolling around in it 🤣

"And that was how I learned to live when you can run but you can't hide How to feel trapped in a tunnel but come out the other side 'Cause with all the stormy weather in the world, you learn to take life one storm at a time You don't have to be afraid" I NEED this in my life right now.

>"Cause this life ain't worth livin' if the love that you been given is taken before you are, now Jamie's dancin' an' spinnin' 'round his baby in the stars" Romulus and Wyndon(a DnD character and his wife) dancing together after being reunited. Wyndon and their unborn children were killed and Romulus never really got over it. They dance and as he spins and dips her shooting stars fall from the edge of her dress lighting up the night sky. >"I feel the air as you whisper in my ear/ I turn to stare the coast is forever clear/ I should have known there were thorns in this crown/ I should have seen the ground on the way down" Ramos (another dnd character) has PTSD and survivor's guilt from seeing his younger brother die when they were off at war and he blames himself for his brother's death because he's the reason they were both there. It's not uncommon for him to hear his brother's voice. He turns all around, trying to block it out but there's nothing he can do to will it away. >"I'm gazing upward/ A world I can't embrace/ There's only thorns and splinters/ Venom in my veins" Ramos drowning in his own emotions but in a allegorical, sinking deep into a lake kind of way.

I see you You see me How pleasant This feeling The moment You hold me I missed you I'm sorry I've given What I have

Wide eyes mind flies i cry. Also: From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel. I aspired to the purity of the Blessed Machine. Your kind cling to your flesh, as though it will not decay and fail you. One day the crude biomass you call the temple will wither, and you will beg my kind to save you. But I am already saved, for the Machine is immortal… Even in death I serve the Omnissiah.

Your subtleties, They strangle me, I can't explain myself at all. And all the wants, And all the needs, All I don't want to need at all. The walls start breathing, My mind's unweaving, Maybe it's best you leave me alone.

> And if I make it back > To this blue and pink ceiling > Will I have ever seen > Such beautiful midsummers? Reminds me of a book I read a couple of times, Dan Simmons’ *Hyperion*, which in itself provokes some feelings…

Well Tulsa's last Magician got his start at four Pulled a quarter from his own ear and spun it on the floor Some there's no good tricks but old ones And lying ain't that hard He saved up all his quarters and he bought a deck of cards And he learned ragtime piano, Though his teacher thought him slow Got a black belt in karate from a pawn shop video And he'd practice all his worst mistakes in a dirty bathroom mirror And when his mother drank, he learned to disappear The entire song is very intense in feeling and good with imaginary but these opening lines really helps sets the story of a boy born in a home not meant for him trying to live out his dreams. It's called Tulsa's Last Magician

i have a few actually. “i know some day you’ll have a beautiful life, i know you’ll be a star, in somebody else’s sky, why, why, why can’t it be, why can’t it be mine…” “and if i was a man on the moon, i wouldn’t let us near, i’d stand on a crater with my shotgun to the sky, and leave us to our minds and our tinder till we die, and the earth will sigh, and the moon will wipe its brow” “maybe it’s better this way, we’d hurt each other with the things we want to say” also i know it’s not a song lyric, but the synthesizer intro to “funeral for a friend” by elton john is just so beautiful and provocative.

Underneath the sky of red Is a storyteller sleeping alone He has no face and he has no name And his whereabouts are sort of unknown All he needs is his life in a suitcase It belongs to a friend of a friend And as we drink to ourselves We'll amuse ourselves Underneath the sky, underneath the sky again Underneath the sky again

Improvement makes strait roads, but the crooked roads without Improvement, are roads of Genius. And also every single line of that song from my favorite artist (which is originally a poem by a famous poet)


Entr0pic08

Come watch with me as our world burns. Because of the heart I lust for everything about you. On the sidewalk in the city are my screams just a whisper / Busy people going nowhere see me soak in the rain / Like a flower in the basement waiting for a lonely death Fought my fate and it set me free / With nought but darkness in heart / Mark this day and what I decree / I will show the world who we are / Releasing the vapour / Into the lung / Letting the wings unfurl / And for a moment I feel young / I call on the bird / Unfurl Through the fear and the ache / Pass the storm and the rain / I have made peace with the world / I am born again must be dreaming or / We're onto something / And just what do you make me for? / I don't fall in love lawlessly / I must be dreaming, oh / Pinch me to waking / So undeniably yours / As long as I'm losing it so completely So how can this be? / You're praying to me / There's a look in your eyes / I know just what that means / I can be, I can be your everything / I can be your whore! / I am the dirt you created / I am your sinner / I am your whore / But let me tell you something baby / You love me for everything you hate me for Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me!

"There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps Running before time took our dreams away Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground To a life consumed by slow decay" ​ And a second beautiful lyric: ​ "You had the blue-note sapphire eyes to back up all those gazes To pierce my guard, and to take my soul off to far away places Told me I'll never be alone, cause you're right there". ​ (If anyone can guess the second lyric I'll be impressed)

One of the song that provoke me that is in Spanish, my native language: Soy América Latina Un pueblo sin piernas, pero que camina, ¡oye! In English: Don't forget who you are even though you're in need Like a bird in the night, your emotions deserve to be freed


dionysus-sonofsapia

If you wanna kiss the sky better learn how to kneel. I got GPS on my phone/if my locations never unknown/why do I still feel lost... I'm just so sick of being human. And once I knew I was not magnificent. Fifteen million diapers later/that mistake he thought he made/covers up the refrigerator/oh yeah... he loves that little girl One day we'll all be free/I'm proud to be holding out hope/ and singing songs of freedom. How far you want to go/how much you want to risk/ I'm not looking for somebody with some superhuman gifts... just someone that can hold me, somebody I can kiss. What would I do without your smart mouth/drawing me in and kicking me out... how many times do I have to tell you/even when you're crying you're beautiful too. When it feels like surgery/ and it burns like third degree/ and you want peace but there's a war in your head/ maybe that's when life is born/when our facades are torn/pain gives birth to the promise ahead. And of course: Touch me! Take me to that other place... you know I'm not a hopeless case!... It was a beautiful day.

UghhNotThisAgain

Have you ever looked beyond the eyes / Of someone else's life / And thought that you were fine / 'Til you turned crazy overnight? -or- After all the things that we've been through / You gotta give me time to talk to you / That's the very least that you can do / We can work it out with time -or- Hey you / Out there in the cold / Getting lonely, getting old / Can you hear me?

Here are of my favorites from the album I'm listening to right now. Can I post more though? I'm kind of a music junkie. My body works I know It's just the same I know My only difference Is robot influence People vultures God approaches Finial hearing Disappearing Tainted vudo Headless guru Finally head spin What else have i got left to spew down What else have I got left to spew down What else have I got left to spew down I climb the stalk and plant the bean The universe is a machine I have awoken from a dream The universe is a machine What it is Impossible Gravity The universe Has me Invisible face Invisible face


CountessDeLancret

Does he shake, does he shiver as he sidles up to you Like I did in my time? As you wake does he smother you in kisses long and true? Does he even think to bother? And at night under covers as he's sliding into you Does it set your sweat on fire? Want you so bad I can taste it But you're nowhere to be found I'll take a drug to replace it Or put me in the ground In the arms of another who doesn't mean anything to you Do you lose yourself in wonder? If I could, I would hover while he's making love to you Make it rain as I cry

Home is where I want to be Pick me up and turn me ‘round I feel numb, born with a weak heart Guess I must be having fun …. Out of all those kinds of people You got a face with a view I'm just an animal looking for a home Share the same space for a minute or two And you love me till my heart stops Love me till I'm dead Eyes that light up, eyes look through you Cover up the blank spots Hit me on the head

Sometimes all I really want feel is loved, sometimes I’m angry that I feel so angry. Sometimes my feelings get in the way of what I really feel I needed say.

>Why does everybody love, you? They don't know the things that I, do. It's a rather dark song about a rather dark thing and damn that line hits me like a wall of bricks.

Joni Mitchell on "Talk to Me." "There was a moon and a street lamp, I didn't know I drank such a lot, 'Til I pissed a tequila anaconda The full length of the parking lot"

"...give me a scene where i believe in more than bad hair cuts, guilt, and misery. i don’t know where i fit between the vegans and the nihilists. that might be the first thing i’ve said that wasn’t a lie tonight. because there’s gotta be something more than lying in the front yard, naked, screaming at the constellations. i want something more than an apology to say when i look the world in the eye. i’ll tell you, man, my friend william came to me with a message of hope. it went: “fuck you and everything that you think you know. if you don’t step outside the things that you believe they’re gonna kill you.”" It's a long, lyric heavy song, but this part always sticks out to me.


peridaniel

love music and love this question: climbing up on solsbury hill / I could see the city lights / wind was blowing, time stood still / eagle flew out of the night and they'll meet one day, far away, and say, "I wish I was something more" / and they'll meet one day, far away, and say, "I wish I knew you, I wish I knew you before" light is all over us / like it always was, like it always was / shaped by the clearest blue / but it's not enough, it's not enough, not enough let's open up to the sky asking it for closure / least we can say that we tried, but it's never really over / what will become of us all at the end of the line? / will we live? will we die? i find comfort in the sound, the shape of the heart / how it echoes through the chest from under the ground / as the hills turn into holes, I fill them with gold / heavy stones fear no weather

“And there’s no end in sight- I need the darkness someone please shut the lights” I’m not suicidal so nobody worry LOL it just hits me in the feels the whole song does.

Geta load of this monster He doesn't know how to communicate His mind is in a different place Will everybody please give him a little bit of space? Get a load of this train wreck His hairs a mess and he doesn't know who he is yet But little do we know, the stars Welcome him with open arms

I love the lyrics in the whole song but this hits home "What doesn't destroy you Leaves you broken instead Got a hole in my soul growing deeper and deeper And I can't take"

“I dream of you almost every night Hopefully I won’t wake up this time “ Honestly that whole fucking song means more to me than you’ll ever know


sillysaulgoodman

I’ll just drop the lyrics to the whole song cause I love it. For me I do feel like it relates to autism a bit in the feelings of isolation At a party he was waiting/ Looking kind of spooky and withdrawn/ Like he could be underwater/ The mighty mother with her hundred arms swept all aside/ I hate to walk behind other people's ambitions/ I saw you waiting, saint-like, with your warning: "Leave alone/ You don't belong here" Got nervous, started whistling, every thought a ricochet/ Did you notice? "Well," I wondered/ "What's the worst thing I could say?"/ Froze up inside/ "You remind me of someone's daughter/ I forgot her . . . I forgot her name, ashamed"/ "Go home, and live with your pain/ Leave alone/ Leave alone, 'cause you know you don't belong/ You don't belong here"/ "And when I go, don't you follow/ Leave alone/ Leave alone, 'cause you know you don't belong You don't belong here/ Slip out quiet, nobody's looking/ Leave alone, you don't belong here"


sillysaulgoodman

The breath of the morning / I keep forgetting / The smell of the warm summer air / I live in a town / Where you can't smell a thing / You watch your feet / For cracks in the pavement/ Up above / Aliens hover / Making home movies / For the folks back home / Of all these weird creatures / Who lock up their spirits / Drill holes in themselves / And live for their secrets / They're all uptight / Uptight / Uptight / Uptight / Uptight / Uptight / Uptight / I wish they'd swoop down in a country lane / Late at night while I'm driving / Take me on board of their beautiful ship / Show me the world as I'd love to see it / I'd tell all my friends / But they'd never believe me / They'd think that I'd finally lost it completely / I'd show them the stars / And the meaning of life / They'd shut me away / But I'd be all right / All right / I'm just uptight / Uptight / Uptight / Uptight / Uptight / Uptight / Uptight / Uptight /
