Well yet again, I haven't seemed to find a thread for this (Or it has been named something else). So what is your Favourite's Songs lyrics? (Can post, optional thing).
Mine's would have to be SA's Theme Tune Open your Heart by either, I think; Crush 40 or B Basic.

Thunder, rain, and lightning
Danger, water rising
Clamour, sirens wailing
It's such a bad sign
Shadows of dark creatures
Steel clouds floating in the air
People run for shelter
What's gonna happen to us!?
All the steps we take, all the moves we make, all the pain at stake
I see the chaos for everyone who are we what can we do
You and I are same in the way that we have our own styles that we won't change
Yours is filled with evil and mine's not there is no way I can lose
* Can't hold on much longer - But I will never let go
I know it's a one way track - Tell me now how long this'll last
I'm not gonna think this way - Nor will I count on others
Close my eyes and feel it burn - Now I see what I've gotta do
Open your heart, it's gonna be alright
Ancient city blazing
Shadows keep attacking
Little children crying
Confusion, hopeless anger
I don't know what it can be but you drive me crazy
All your cunning tricks make me sick, you won't have it your own way
* Repeat
Open your heart and you'll see,
(Guitar Solo)
If it won't stop, there will be no future for us
Its heart is tied down by all the hate, gotta set him free
I know it's a one way track - Tell me now how long this'll last
Close my eyes and feel it burn - Now I see what I've gotta do
Gotta open your heart, Dude!
* Repeat
Open your Heart its gonna be alright!
I think this is in the Musical Favorites sticky, but anyway, while I'm here...
"Reach Down" by Temple Of The Dog, lyrics by Chris Cornell:
Well, I had a dream the other night.
You were in a bar in the corner on a chair.
Wearing a long white leather coat, purple glasses, and glitter in your hair.
And you said, "Hey this is where I'm gonna sit and buy you a drink someday."
You were going to the dog shows, but you kinda lost your way.
You said, "Now, I've got all this room and nobody to decorate it!"
So some local customer put me in touch with the man upstairs.
He said, "Little man, you got no business being all frustrated!"
"You gotta rest! You gotta rest! You gotta rest!"
"You gotta reach down, and pick the crowd up!"
Oh, I wanna reach down and pick the crowd up!
Carry back in my hand, to the promised land.
To the promised land.
Ooh, I had an angel shine my wings.
She said, "Nothing but the best for the golden boy."
She made a promise not to tell I had her under a spell.
Singing golden words in a broken voice.
Now, I caught a blessing of the wind, I'm feeling lighter than the breath from a dove!
I've got no hands to tie behind my back and I'm sparking like a heart attack!
Now I've got room to spread my wings, and my message is of love!
Love was my drug, but that's not what I died of.
So don't you think of me crying louder than some billion dollar baby!
Ooh, I wanna rest! I wanna rest! I wanna rest!
I wanna reach down, and pick the crowd up!
I wanna reach down, and pick the crowd up!
Carry back in my hand, to the promised land!
To the promised land!
To the promised land!
Ooh! Yeah, I wanna reach down, and pick the crowd up!
I wanna reach down, and pick the crowd up!
Carry back in my hand, to the promised land!
To the promised land!
Ooh, yeah!
Aaaaaaooooh!
This song is supposed to be a tribute to Andrew Wood, lead singer of Mother Love Bone. Yes, I did type the lyrics myself while listening to the song.
[quote]I'm Sorry by Evergrey
I painted a picture of you
Your soul was red and your mind was blue
Destiny laid a light on my creation
This dream I had made a slave of my passion
Reality was always too far away
And we were happy until it came too close one day
Suddenly I faced the truth of my dream
My love had only been a picture, a scene
I suppose I needed to believe
Didn't want to see you had never been close to me
But I'm sorry
This illusion has caused you a lot of pain
And I have no solution
I'll try to never be back again
I'm sorry
I painted a picture of you
My dream was a lie and the lie became truth
Reality held his breath too long
(It's disgusting what dreams can do to you)
But I'm sorry
This illusion has caused you a lot of pain
And I have no solution
I'll try to never be back again
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry

[quote]Uh, you know I still run with that, that blood of a slave
Boiling in my veins
It's just hot until a nigga can't take it no more
Blood of a slave, Heart of a King
Turn my voice up
Ayo, the brother is "Stillmatic"
I crawled up out of that grave, wiping the dirt, cleaning my shirt
They thought I'll make another "Illmatic"
But it's always forward I'm moving
Never backwards stupid here's another classic
C-Notes is falling from the sky
By now the credits roll starring Nas executive poet, produced, directed by
The Kid slash Escobar
Narration describes the lives and laws tribes in the ghetto trying to survive
The feature opens with this young black child
Finger scratch, cigarette burns on the sofa, turning the TV down
Mary Jane girls, 45's playing, soft in the background
Poof from C-Town's mornings was hash browns
Stepped over dope fiends, walking out the door, all of us paw
I learned the difference between the snitches, the real ones, and who's soft
And the murderous, hungriest crews
People jumping from roofs, shotguns pumping made it through my youth
Walking very thin lines, ages seven and nine
That's the age I was on my album cover, this is the rebirth
I know the streets thirst water like Moses
Walking through the hot desert searching to be free
This is my end and my new beginning Nostalgia
Out for the in a mega places, it's like a glitch in the matrix
I seen it at all, did it all, most of y'all been pop for a minute
Spitters, sinners and the game get rid of y'all
Y'all got there but y'all didn't get it all, I want my style back
Hate to cease y'all plan it's the rap reaper man
To them double up hustlers, bidders, niggaz who real
Professionals, stick up childs dreaming for meals
Let my words guide you, get inside you
From crypts to pirals this is survival
Blood of a Slave, Heart of a King
Blood of a Slave, Heart of a King
Uh, uh Blood of a Slave, Heart of a King
Uh, yea
Huh, Braveheart

Too lazy to merge. But this is in the "Musical Favourites" sticky.
