Thread to post your favourite musical lyrics! huzzah!
Eye on the the TV
'Cause tragedy thrills me
Whatever flavour it happens to be, like
"Killed by the husband"
"Drowned by the ocean"
"Shot by his own son"
"She used a poison
in his tea...kissed him goodbye..."
That's my kind of story
It's no fun 'til someone dies
Don't look at me like
I am a monster
Frown out your one face
But with the other
Stare like a junkie
Into the TV
Stare like a zombie
While the mother holds her child,
Watches him die,
Hands to the sky crying,
"Why, oh why?"
Cause I need to watch things die...
From a distance...
Vicariously I live while the whole world dies
YOU ALL NEED IT TOO, DON'T LIE
Why can't we just admit it?
Why can't we just admit it?
We won't give pause until the blood is flowing
Neither the brave nor bold
Will write as the story's told
We won't give pause until the blood is flowing
I need to watch things die...
From a good safe distance
Vicariously I
Live while the whole world dies
You all feel the same, so...
Why can't we just admit it?
Blood like rain come down...
Drown my grave and ground...
Part vampire
Part warrior
Carnivore and Voyeur
Stare at the transmittal
Sing to the death rattle
La, la, la, la, la, la-la-lie
La, la, la, la, la, la-la-lie
La, la, la, la, la, la-la-lie
La, la, la, la, la, la-la-lie
Credulous at best
Your desire to believe in
Angels in the hearts of men
Pull your head on out, your head please, and give a listen
Shouldn't have to say it all again
The universe is hostile, so impersonal
Devour to survive... so it is, so it's always been
We all feed on tragedy
It's like blood to a vampire
Vicariously I live while the whole world dies
Much better you than I
-"Vicarious" by Tool

Isn't that the new tool song? It's hard for me to say what my favorite song is.

You're keeping in step
And in line
Got your chin held high
And you feel just fine
Cause you do
What you're told
But inside your heart it is black
And it's hollow and it's cold
Just how deep do you believe
Will you bite the Hand that Feeds?
Will you chew until it bleeds?
Can you get up off your knees?
Are you brave enough to see?
Do you want I'll change it.
What if this whole crusade's a charade?
And behind it all there's a price to be paid
For the blood on which we dined?
Justified in the name of the Holy and the Divine?
Just how deep do you believe
Will you bite the Hand that Feeds?
Will you chew until it bleeds?
Can you get up off your knees?
Are you brave enough to see?
Do you want I'll change it
So naieve...
I keep holding onto what I wanna believe...
I can see...but I keep holding on
And on and on and on
Will you bite...
The Hand that Feeds you...
Will you stay...
Down on your knees...
Will you bite...
The Hand that Feeds you...
Will you stay...
Down on your knees...
Will you bite...
The Hand that Feeds you...
Will you stay...
Down on your knees...
Will you bite...
The Hand that Feeds you...
Will you stay...
Down on your knees...
Will you bite...
The Hand that Feeds you...
Will you stay...
Down on your knees...
Will you bite...
The Hand that Feeds you...
Will you stay...
Down on your knees...
Will you bite...
The Hand that Feeds you...
Will you stay...
Down on your knees...
Will you bite...
The Hand that Feeds you...
Will you stay...
Down on your knees...
-"The Hand that Feeds" by Nine Inch Nails

All veils are misty
Streets are blue
Almond looks
That chill divide
Some silky moment
Goes on forever
And we're leaving broken hearts
Behind
Mystify
Mystify me
Mystify
Mystify me
I need perfection
Some twisted selection
That tangles me
To keep me alive
In all that exists
When none has your beauty
I see your face
And I will survive
Mystify
Mystify me
Mystify
Mystify me
Eternally wild with the power
To make every moment come alive
All the stars who shine upon you
Well they kiss you every night
All veils and misty streets are blue
Almond looks, that chill divide
Some silky moment goes on forever
And we're leaving, yeah we're leaving broken hearts behind
You mystify
Mystify me
Mystify
You mystify me
You're eternally wild with the power
To make every moment come alive
All the stars who shine upon you
Well they kiss you every night
Mystify
Mystify me
Mystify
Mystify me
Mystify
Mystify me
Mystify

someone needs to stop Ethan before this thread just becomes all his lyrics!! lol
I've been feeling dull as a coat hanger
pretty as a picture of a patient on a fresh iv
giddy as a gangbanger with a set of sutures where his magic johnson ought to be
yes i'll tell you just the thing you need to be the next big thing
let's start in with a test of your intelligence
and zest for the counter-productive
up and down and roundabout and out the back
and keep your mouth shut tight
the lights are staying out but no sweat I've got aim like a mack truck
guess how many fingers ok guess how many more i can fit there
guess right get the toaster but you know, miss, guessing gets you nowhere
i've been baking cakes for the enemy
i've been dying to find out the hard way
ive been taking friends to the alleyway
two down now but who's counting anyway?
yes I can do everything you need from out of my new SUV
all my work is guaranteed to last the length of your recovery
put away those pliers honey trust me cause I know the options
how about a nine-month long vacation and a two-foot coffin
i've been getting up close and intimate
some close calls but I'm getting into it
in some states they say you can burn for it
but ill burn that bridge when i get to it
it's not a bad thing
to get professional
it's got a nice ring
mandy goes to med school
i've been taking tips from the government
i've been getting damn good at hiding it
fifty bucks a month ought to cover it
two down now but who's gonna notice it?
and if you show up and I am unavailable
my partner brian would love to take care of you
he is a nice man
thoroughly reliable
he's in a rock band
and he goes to med school.....
-The Dresden Dolls, "Mandy Goes to Med School"

There's a shadow just behind me
Shrouding every step I take
Making every promise empty
Pointing every finger at me
Waiting like a stalking butler
Who upon the finger rests
Murder now the path called "must we"
Just because the son has come
Jesus won't you ******** whistle
Something but the past and done?
Jesus won't you ******** whistle
Something but the past and done?
Why can't we not be sober?
I just want to start this over
Why can't we drink forever?
I just want to start things over
I am just a worthless liar
I am just an imbecile
I will only complicate you
Trust in me and fall as well
I will find a center in you
I will chew it up and leave
I will work to elevate you
Just enough to bring you down
Mother Mary won't you whisper
Something but the past and done
Mother Mary won't you whisper
Something but the past and done
Why can't we not be sober?
I just want to start this over
Why can't we sleep forever?
I just want to start things over
I am just a worthless liar
I am just an imbecile
I will only complicate you
Trust in me and fall as well
I will find a center in you
I will chew it up and leave
Trust me
Trust me
Trust me
Trust me
Trust me
Why can't we not be sober?
I just want to start this over
Why can't we sleep forever?
I just want to start things over
I want what I want
I want what I want
I want what I want
I want what I want

Sweet dreams are made of these
Who am I to disagree
I travel the world and the Seven Seas
Everybody is looking for something
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused
Sweet dreams are made of these
Who am I to disagree
I travel the world and the Seven Seas
Everybody is looking for something
Hold your head up
Keep your head up (moving on)
Hold your head up (moving on)
Keep your head up (moving on)
Hold your head up (moving on)
Keep your head up (moving on)
Hold your head up (moving on)
Keep your head up
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused
Hold your head up
Keep your head up (moving on)
Hold your head up (moving on)
Keep your head up (moving on)
Hold your head up (moving on)
Keep your head up (moving on)
Hold your head up (moving on)
Keep your head up
Sweet dreams are made of these
Who am I to disagree
I travel the world and the Seven Seas
Everybody is looking for something
Sweet dreams are made of these
Who am I to disagree
I travel the world and the Seven Seas
Everybody is looking for something
Sweet dreams are made of these
Who am I to disagree
I travel the world and the Seven Seas
Everybody is looking for something
Sweet dreams are made of these
Who am I to disagree
I travel the world and the Seven Seas
Everybody is looking for something

It was the Eurythmics, but Annie Lennox sang it.

So glad to see you well
Overcome and completely silent now
With heaven's help
You cast your demons out
And not to pull your halo down
Around your neck and tug you off your cloud
But I'm more than just a little curious
How you're plannin' to go about makin' your amends
To the dead
To the dead
Recall the deeds as if they're all
Someone else's
Atrocious stories
Now you stand reborn
Before us all
So glad to see you well
And not to pull your halo down
Around your neck and tug you to the ground
But I'm more than just a little curious
How you're plannin' to go about makin' your amends
To the dead
To the dead
With your halo slippin' down
Your halo slippin'
Your halo slippin' down
Your halo slippin' down
Your halo slippin' down
(I'm more than just a little curious
How you're plannin' to go about makin' your amends)
Your halo slippin' down
(I'm more than just a little curious
How you're plannin' to go about makin' your amends)
Your halo slippin' down
(I'm more than just a little curious
How you're plannin' to go about makin' your amends)
Your halo slippin' down
(I'm more than just a little curious
How you're plannin' to go about makin' your amends)
Your halo slippin' down
Your halo slippin' down to choke you now
