Post lyrics to a song thats on your mind.

Life is a waterfall, we're one in the river
And one again after the fall
Swimming through the void, we hear the word
We lose ourselves, but we find it all

'Cause we are the ones that wanna play
Always wanna go, but you never wanna stay
And we are the ones that wanna choose
Always wanna play, but you never wanna lose
 
We have no future, we have no past
We're just drifting ghosts of glass
Brown sugar, ice in our veins
No pressure, no pain
Everybody looks the same to me
Rows and rows of faces on the balcony
I can hear them calling down to me
"Come up here, set us free"
Got sugar in our brains
Or a dagger in our hearts

This is not my home, no
Everyone's bought and sold
This is not my home
Everybody's walking 'round the dead and cold

One by one, by one we disappear
Day after day, year after year
You are run about, are we still there?
Nobody hears 'cause nobody cares
Put a dagger in my heart now

Cold here and I shudder and I shiver
I want to look twenty, but I can't deliver
Pains in the heart
Ba-ba-bow-wow-wow-wow
It's cold in here
Can you hear my teeth a-chatter?
The time has come for all of us to scatter
Caution to the wind
Caution to the wind
Dagger in the heart

No!
This is not my home, no
Everyone's bought and sold
This is not my home
Everybody's checking out the dead and cold

We have no future, we have no past
We're just drifting ghosts of glass
Brown sugar, ice in our veins
No pressure, no pain
No pressure, no pain
No pressure, no pain
No pressure, no shame
No pressure, no shame
No pressure, no shame
No pressure, oh float away

Nothing on earth could help me, no
Nothing on earth could help me, no
Nothing on earth could help me, no, no, no
Nothing on earth could help me, no, no, no
Nothing on earth could help me, no
Nothing on earth could help me, no, no
No, no, no, no, no, no
Nothing on earth, I said nothing on earth
I said, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, no!!!
 
Forget the way things could've been
Did I learn anything? It was only that bad with you

September like a dream, but winter got so mean
The storm was underneath, if I could do it all again, I would've said

Chaeri, please, you're killing me
 
Let me remain as I used to be for a little bit...

Drive me away, drive me away,
and I'll make you love me more.
We demolish it; groundbreaking.
Shall we preserve only its name?
 
My life's in jeopardy
Murdered in cold blood is what I'm gonna be
I ain't been home since Friday night
And now my wife is coming after me

Give me police protection
Gonna buy a gun so
I can look after number one
Give me a bodyguard
A black-belt Judo expert with a machine gun

Gonna buy a tank and an aeroplane
When she catches up with me
Won't be no time to explain
She thinks I've been with another woman
And that's enough to send her half insane
Gonna buy a fast car
Put on my lead boots
And take a long, long drive
I may end up spending all my money
But I'll still be alive

All I did was have a bit too much to drink
And I picked the wrong precinct
Got picked up by the law
And now I ain't got time to think

"My Wife" by The Who. This song's hilarious when you read what the lyrics are about.
 
Denizens of sylvan places
Hidden from the eyes of man,
Courtesans with sylph-like graces
Dancing to the pipes of Pan -
That echoed through the ether
Notes that soared the wings of halcyon,
Songs to give our lives the meaning
That we lack now they have gone.

Watch the pattern ever changing
In the tapestry of fate,
Weft and weave now interlacing
Silken strands that fabricate -
A cloak to fit both king and beggar,
Those who rule and those that toil
Are equal in the fact that
All pay homage to this mortal coil.

Icy fingers grasping madly
Get a grip upon my throat -
And slowly squeeze the life out of me
On my dying words I choke,
A frantic prayer in desperation
Cannot hope to make me whole,
A moment's lapse of concentration
And the spirits flee my soul.

Drugs and potions surge within me -
Slowly paralize and kill me,
Terrified I stumble blindly
Into the unknown.
Outside looking in - observing
Feelings that I find unnerving
Dying with my eyes wide open
Helpless and alone.

The endless void that lies beyond -
With gaping jaws it beckons me,
I cast my worldly flesh aside and
Plunge into eternity.

Once light hearted I departed -
On my quest hope courted me,
Now a new love is my true love
And her name is misery.
Eyes as dark as midnight-ravens
Gems that filled my mind with awe,
Enthral my heart -
Distract me from her milk-white hands
Stained red with gore.

The fetters that bound me are broken,
By words that were best left unspoken,
For now I am shackled to sadness
By chains that are tempered with madness.

I plummet like a shooting-star
That shines so bright yet falls so far,
Shafts of moonlight guide me
To the world that waits below.
I seem in need of nothing else
[...]
Laughing through the gates of Hell I go.

[MY SOULS LAMENT]
Contained within a living shroud
My life-force fades and dies,
This weary heart grows heavy
As the coins upon my eyes.
The latch has now been lifted
On an ever open door,
And peering through I see things
As I never have before.

The hammer and the anvil meet -
In synchronicity they chime,
A sound so simple and complete
It needs no melody or rhyme.
Reforging all that I once was -
They make me into something new,
No longer trapped within this world
But transient and passing through -
The 'valley of the shadow'
Far beyond the 'summerland',
Like the wild-boar is my valour
Now my life is in these hands -
That keep the seething cauldron steaming,
Stoke the fires of destiny,
Gently take me and re-shape me
All-wise smith of sorcery

The fetters that bound me are broken,
By words that were best left unspoken,
For now I am shackled to sadness
By chains that are tempered with madness.

From the 'cup of happiness'
The wine of hope I've sipped,
Betrayed I taste the bitterness
Of pain upon my lips.
Though I try to drown my sorrows
They will surely drown me first,
For swallowing my pride
Won't quench this thirst.

[MY SOULS LAMENT:]
In this darkness light has faded -
Hope becomes despair,
Loneliness for a companion -
With me everywhere.
I wander in confusion
While the tears that I have cried,
Gleam like broken trinkets
You have worn then cast aside.

[WODEN:]
"Now hand-in-hand with ignorance
The power-mad run blindly,
But retribution hunts you down
And rest assured he'll find thee.
No curtain could conceal you
For the ghosts of all you slander -
Await you at your journey's end
And, to them you must answer.
The poisons born upon your tongue
Will never serve to slight me,
For I have dealt with many fools and
Suffer your kind lightly.
Just as you sow so shall you reap -
And I my friend have plenty,
So sit ye down and eat your words
Now that your plate is empty."

The endless void that lies beyond
With gaping jaws it beckons me,
I cast my worldly flesh aside and
Plunge into eternity.

Once light hearted I departed -
On my quest hope courted me,
Now a new love is my true love
And her name is misery.
Eyes as dark as midnight-ravens
Gems that filled my mind with awe,
Enthral my heart -
Distract me from her milk-white hands
Stained red with gore.

The fetters that bound me are broken,
By words that were best left unspoken,
For now I am shackled to sadness
By chains that are tempered with madness.

I plummet like a shooting-star
That shines so bright yet falls so far,
Shafts of moonlight guide me
To the world that waits below.
I seem in need of nothing else
[...]
Laughing through the gates of Hell I go.

[MY SOULS LAMENT]
Contained within a living shroud
My life-force fades and dies,
This weary heart grows heavy
As the coins upon my eyes.
The latch has now been lifted
On an ever open door,
And peering through I see things
As I never have before.

[WODEN:]
"Why do the mighty view the world
Through sycophantic eyes -
Then claim to us they know what's best
From pedestals of pride?
Don't take the views of others
And dismiss them out of hand -
For when your pillars crumble
Tell me who will take command?"
 
I just bought more land in the metaverse
And now I'm getting paid cash with atlas earth
Got virtual land all across the globe (across the globe)
Next wave is digital
Catch me on the way up
The glow up is visible
Cop a couple more
Watch my income go up it's about to go nuts
It's about to go nuts
Now I'm getting paid in cash with atlas earth
Atlas, atlas earth
Atlas, atlas earth
 
It's just one of those days where you don't wanna wake up
Everything is ****ed, everybody sucks
You don't really know why, but you wanna justify
Rippin' someone's head off

No human contact
And if you interact, your life is on contract
Your best bet is to stay away, mother****er
It's just one of those days

Moon, a hole of light
Through the big top tent up high
Here before and after me
Shinin' down on me
Moon, tell me if I could
Send up my heart to you?
So, when I die, which I must do
Could it shine down here with you?
 
What's another night alone?
When you're spending everyday on your own
And here it goes

I'M JUST A KID
AND LIFE IS A NIGHTMARE
🥁
 
It lies dormant, so far from dead
Grating on me, this uninvited sense
Its whispers like branches as they bend
Twisting, grinding, just threatening to snap

Floods of frustration cascading in my skull
On the axis, back and forth, the swinging pendulum
So much damage bashing each wall
I hear the sand pounding in the hourglass as it falls
 
If I told you things I did before,
Told you how I used to be,
Would you go along with someone like me?
If you knew my story word for word,
Had all of my history,
Would you go along with someone like me?

I did before and had my share,
It didn't lead nowhere.
I would go along with someone like you.
It doesn't matter what you did,
Who you were hanging with,
We could stick around and see this night through.

And we don't care about the young folks,
Talking 'bout the young style,
And we don't care about the old folks,
Talking 'bout the old style too,
And we don't care about their own faults,
Talking 'bout our own style,
All we care about is talking,
Talking only me and you.
 
You're here because you're one of us
We are the strength, we are the soldiers
You've journeyed far, you've battled hard
And now you will receive the permanent reward

You've conquered pain, you've conquered fear
Stand proud and salute the bloodied flag here
You pledged your death and your last breath
You are the gears, you are the gears

We fear not our mortality
We'll serve to the best of our ability
We give our lives to our masters
We vow to smite our enemies

Well, it's me
In case you were wonderin'
Same old mess as I have always been
I've been fightin'
Regrets and memories
Time has not healed me like I thought it would

[Chorus]
And I don't know which ones are worse
The nightmares or the hangovers
The sleepless nights or the passin' out and finally gettin' rest
The slowin' down just reminds me of why I started in the first place
The numbin' just fueled me for the runnin' away from the pain

I've been workin'
What I mean by workin'
Been trying to find myself
Who I am
I'm still fightin' regrets and memories
Time don't give up on me
Like I fear it will
 
Destruction leads to a very rough road but it also breeds creation
And earthquakes are to a girl's guitar, they're just another good vibration
And tidal waves couldn't save the world from Californication

Pay your surgeon very well to break the spell of aging
Sicker than the rest, there is no test
But this is what you're craving
First born unicorn, hardcore soft ****
Dream of Californication

Is this the first time that you've ever seen
Aurora Borealis crush mankind?
The wind chimes chiming with the screams
A pretty winter night, your hand in mine
The horizon is a fog from the breath of everyone
And I hope you're having fun; I just had to share with someone
 
Takes all the lives of the liars up in Babylon
Armed with the knives fall in stride can't put troubles on
Yield all the sins up the ante with bad company
Those who escape party down in the yards

Greets all the stings with good smiles of triumphancy
Turnstile gates flip and smash smoke to red
Inside the rust there's a gushing love
Into the night
The ones who choose to defy
Going to find a party
Down in the yards, down in the yards

We don't need anything
It isn't what we use to get down anyway
When they say go away
Go away, get on down to the yards (Radios)
We don't need anything (Dancing ****)
It isn't what we use to get down anyway (Twisted clowns)
When they say go away (Paper crowns)
Go away, get on down to the yards (Radios)
 
You think you got me, you're gonna tumble down
Keep coming for me, I'll drop you on the ground
I **** with no one until you get in my face

Break you now, mercy I cannot allow
Through your face my fist will plow
Watching as your blood pours down
Let's do this now!
