Well today this song describes my feelings :x

I Don't Care

That's one of my songs pretty much every day...

and here's another one for me today.

Disturbed - Haunted

You're broken, so am I
I'm better off alone
No one to turn to and nothing to call my own
Outspoken, so am I
Explosive words that your
world wouldn't understand
Turn away again

You're beaten, so am I
I've got a heart of stone
No medication can cure what has taken hold
You're hurting, so will I
When I awaken, remember why I've
been running from your world

Dishonored by your world
Your world
I'm haunted by your world

My blood is cold as ice
Or so I have been told
Show no emotion, and it can destroy your soul
Another sacrifice to a tormentor your world wouldn't understand
Turn away again

You're angered, so am I
A thousand fires burn
A land of darkness from which I cannot return
You're aching, so will I
When I awaken, discover that I
have been damaged by your world

Dishonored by your world
Your world
I'm haunted by your world

Remember and you might be welcomed
Amongst the heartless monsters you surround yourself with
Feeding off the pain and misfortune of others
A maniacal unit of sub-human parasites
Warped into a feeding frenzy at the smell of fresh blood
Open your eyes and see the creatures for what they are
A swirling mess of hatred and envy
Don't be naive enough to think you're unaffected
The conversion has already begun...


You're frightened, so am I
A world of demons wait
Watching the movements and
filling my heart with hate
You're burning, so will I
When I awaken, discover how I
have been ravaged by your world

Dishonored by your world
Your world
I'm haunted by your world

I Wish I Was The Moon lyrics

Chimney falls and lovers blaze
Thought that I was young
Now I've freezing hands and bloodless veins
As numb as I've become

I'm so tired
I wish I was the moon tonight

Last night I dreamt I had forgotten my name
'Cause I had sold my soul but awoke just the same
I'm so lonely
I wish I was the moon tonight

God blessed me, I'm a free man
With no place free to go
I'm paralyzed and collared-tight
No pills for what I fear

This is crazy
I wish I was the moon tonight

Chimney falls and lovers blaze
Thought that I was young
Now I've freezing hands & bloodless veins
As numb as I've become

I'm so tired,
I wish I was the moon tonight

How will you know if you found me at least
'Cause I'll be the one, be the one, be the one
With my heart in my lap
I'm so tired, I'm so tired
I wish I was the moon tonight.

Case Neko - I wish i was the moon

hmmm...I'm feeling happy...Because i may get 10 from chemistry in school :roll: so...


Mika- Grace Kelly

Do I attract you?
Do I repulse you with my queasy smile?
Am I too dirty?
Am I too flirty?
Do I like what you like?

I could be wholesome
I could be loathsome
I guess I'm a little bit shy
Why don't you like me?
Why don't you like me without making me try?

kertosäe:
I try to be like Grace Kelly
But all her looks were too sad
So I try a little Freddie
I've gone identity mad

kertosäe2:
I could be brown
I could be blue
I could be violet sky
I could be hurtful
I could be purple
I could be anything you like
Gotta be green
Gotta be mean
Gotta be everything more
Why don't you like me?
Why don't you like me?
Why don't you walk out the door

How can I help it
How can I help it
How can I help what you think?
Hello my baby
Hello my baby
Putting my life on the brink
Why don't you like me
Why don't you like me
Why don't you like yourself?
Should I bend over?
Should I look older just to be put on the shelf?

kertosäe

kertosäe2

Say what you want to satisfy yourself
But you only want what everybody else says you should want

kertosäe2 (2x)

Octavarium: Dream Theater

[I. Someone Like Him]
I never wanted to become someone like him so secure
Content to live each day just like the last
I was sure I knew that
This was not for me
And I wanted so much more
Far beyond what I could see
So I swore that I'd
Never be someone like him

So many years have passed
Since I proclaimed
My independence
My mission
My aim
And my vision
So secure
Content to live each day like it's my last
It's wonderful to know
That I could be
Something more than what I dreamed
Far beyond what I could see
Still I swear that I'm
Missing out this time

As far as I could tell
There's nothing more I need
But still I ask myself
Could this be everything
Then all I swore
That I would never be was now
So suddenly
The only thing I wanted
To become
To be someone just like him

[II. Medicate (Awakening)]
A doctor sitting next to me
He asked me how I feel
Not sure I understand his questioning
He says I've been away a while
But thinks he has cured me
>From a state of catatonic sleep

For 30 years
Where have I been
Eyes open
But not getting through to me

Medicate me
Infiltrate me
Side effects appear
As my conscience slips away

Medicate me
Science failing
Conscience fading fast
Can't you stop what's happening

A higher dosage he prescribes
But there's no guarantee
I feel it starting to take over me

I tell him not to be ashamed
There's no one who's to blame
A second shot
A brief awakening

I feel the relapse
Can't break free
Eyes open
But not getting through to me

[III. Full Circle]
Sailing on the seven seize the day tripper Diem's ready
Jack the Ripper Owen Wilson Phillips and my Supper's ready
Lucy in the Sky with diamond Dave's not here I come to save the Day for
Nightmare Cinema show me the way to get back home
Again

Running forward
Falling back
Spinning round and round
Scream without a sound
Stumbling all around
Find I've come full circle

Leaning over
Crawling up
Stumbling all around
Losing my place
Only to find I've come full circle

Flying Off the Hand With careful with
That axe Eugene Gene the dance machine messiah
Light my Fire gabba, gabba
Hey hey my my Generations home again

Running forward
Falling back
Spinning round and round
Scream without a sound
Stumbling all around
Find I've come full circle

Leaning over
Crawling up
Stumbling all around
Losing my place
Only to find I've come full circle

[IV. Intervals]
First:
Our deadly sins feel his mortal wrath
Remove all obstacles from our path
Second:
Asking questions
Search for clues
The answer's been right in front of you

Third:
Try to break through
Long to connect
fall on deaf ears and failed muted breath
Fourth:
Loyalty, trust, faith in desire
Carries love through each darkest fire

Fifth:
Tortured insanity
A smothering hell
Try to escape but to no avail
Sixth:
The calls of admirers
Who claim they adore
Drain all your lifeblood while begging for more

Seventh:
Innocent victims for merciless crimes
Fall prey to some madman's impulsive designs
Eighth:
Step after step
We try controlling our fate
When we finally start living it has become too late

Trapped inside this Octavarium
Trapped inside this Octavarium
Trapped inside this Octavarium
Trapped inside this Octavarium

[V. Razor's Edge]
We move in circles
Balanced all the while
On a gleaming razor's edge

A perfect sphere
Colliding with our fate
This story ends where it began

hahaha that is really brilliant and sooo unbelievably true! :D

Here's the lyrics to a song Billy Connolly once sung in one of his shows about the word fuck :o

There was a young man from the BBC,
His name was Ken Tynan and I'm sure you'll agree
He dropped a real clanger that night when we heard
Him using a one two three fourletter word.

A fourletter word, a fourletter word
To ban it would be a shame
It's honest, it's earthy, it ought to be heard
That wonderfull one two three fourletter word.

It's banded around by the kids for a lark
It's putten to practise as soon as it's dark
It's done every night by the rich and the poor
To do it is worse than to say it I'm sure!

A fourletter word, a fourletter word
To ban it would be a shame
It's honest, it's earthy, it ought to be heard
That wonderfull one two three fourletter word.

It shouldn't be said in polight company
When aged old ladies are sipping their tea
But if those ladies' pasts were revealed, sure as hell
They've not only said it, they've done it aswell!

A fourletter word, a fourletter word
To ban it would be a shame
It's honest, it's earthy, it ought to be heard
That wonderfull one two three fourletter word.


You should hear how he sings it while playing his guitar, it's brilliant!

Unfortunately it's not on youtube so I can't give you a link. :(

But I hope you enjoy nonetheless! :D

Dear mother, dear father
What is this hell you have put me through
Believer, deciever
Day in, day out live my life through you
Pushed onto me what's wrong or right
Hidden from this thing that they call life

Dear mother, dear father
Every thought I think you disapprove
Curator, dictator
Always cencoring my every move
Children are seen, but are not heared
Tear out everything inspired

Innocence
Torn from me without your shelter
Barred reality
I'm living blindly

Dear mother, dear father
Time's frozen still and what's left to be
Hear nothing, say nothing
Cannot face the fact I think for me
No guarantee, it's life as is
But damn you for not giving me my chance

Dear mother, dear father
You clipped my wings before I learn to fly
Unspoiled, unspoken
I'm outgrown that f***ing lullaby
Same thing I've always heared from you
Do as I say, not as I do

Innocence
Torn from me without your shelter
Barred reality
I'm living blindly

I'm in hell whitout you
Cannot cope without you two
Shocked at the world that I see
Innocent victim, please rescue me

Dear mother, dear father
Hidden in your world you've made for me
Im seething, I'm bleeding
Ripping wounds in me that never heal
Undying inspite I feel for you
Living this hell you always knew

Metallica: Mama Said

Mama she has taught me well
Told me when I was young
"Son, your life's an open book
Don't close it before it's done"
"The brightest flame burns quickest"
That's what I heared her say
Son's heart's owed to mother
But I must find my way

Let my heart go!
Let your son grow!
Mama, let my heart go
Or I'll let this heart be still
(...be still)

'Rebel' my new last name
Wild blood in my veins
Apron strings around my neck
The mark of it still remains
Left home at an early age
for what I heared was wrong
I never asked forgiveness
But what is said is done

Let my heart go!
Let your son grow!
Mama, let my heart go
Or I let this heart be still

Never I ask of you
What never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness
All, now I take to my grave
Never I ask of you
What never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness
All I now take to my grave
So let this heart be still

Mama, now I'm coming home
I'm not all you wished of me
Mother's love for her son
Unspoken, now let me be
I took your love for granted
Not all the things you said to me
I need your arms to welcome me
But it's cold stone all I see

Let my heart go!
Let your son grow!
Mama, let my heart go
Or I let this heart be still

Let my heart go!
Mama! Let my heart go!
You never let my heart go
So let this heart be still

Never I ask of you
What never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness
All, I now take to my grave
Never I ask of you
What never I gave
But you gave me all your emptiness
All I now take to my grave
So let this heart be still!

(hope I got it right! :? )

Lambretta -Wake Up Girl

Dumb girl
Did you see the latest Vogue
Has it ever occurred to you
That you don't fit the latest trend

Dumb, dumb girl
Can't you see you're such a joke
When was the last time your cellphone rang
Babygirl let's not pretend

Be smart - don't try to discodance, and
Sweetheart - don't even come at all

Wake up girl
All the beautiful ones are laughing
Wake up girl
all the beautiful boys are forever taken - girl

Dumb girl
You could always be like us
Do your boobs and a nosejob too
And don't forget about the smile

But 'til then
Keep a distance on the bus
Take a look at my beeper now
That's a number not to dial

Be smart - don't try to discodance, and
Sweetheart - don't even come at all

Wake up girl
All the beautiful ones are laughing
Wake up girl
all the beautiful boys are forever taken - girl

five finger death punch - never enough

I'm so fed up with everyone around me
(No one seems to care)
I'm just so far gone and nothing's gonna change
(I'll never be the same)

It's always do this, do that,
Everything they want to
I don't want to live that way
Every chance they get their always
Pushin me away

[Chorus:]
It's never enough
No it's never enough
No matter what I say

It's never enough
No it's never enough
I'll never be what you want me to be

It's all so messed up and no one ever listens
(Everyone's deranged)
I'm just so fucked up and I'm never gonna change
(Wanna lay it all to waste)

Their always say this, say that,
Nothing that you want to
I don't want to live that way
Every chance they get their always
Shovin me aside

[Chorus]

I'm Done

[Bridge:]
In the end we're all just chalk lines on the concrete
Drawn only to be washed away
For the time that I've been given
I am what I am

I'd rather hate you
For everything you are
Than ever love you
For something you are not

I'd rather you hate me
For everything I am
Than have you love me
For something that I aint

It's never enough
It's never enough
No matter what I say

It's never enough
No it's never enough
No matter who I try to be

It's never enough
No it's never enough
No matter how I try to taste

It's never enough
Never never enough
I'll never be what you want me to be.

Shinedown ~ The Dream

Whisper in the yard and turn the trees all into toys
Lay there on the ground, and turn the dirt into your joy
From what I see and what I know, it's all been boring lately
So I suggest we trade a question mark in for a maybe
Time your riddles right, and make a point that has no sense
Make sure that you're smiling, and the money's been well spent
Innocence and ignorance, it all goes hand in hand
I'm not sure that I'm right, but I hope you'll understand
I hope that you're still searching for the start that has no end
And all the plastic people have now become your friends
Before you start to drift and your soul begins to scream
I just wanted to tell you that you're listening to a dream....

Words are the worst weapon men have.
This weapon used against you by your beloved one and the Bullet won't even have to leave the barrel.
Intervisibility to it kills you.
It peals through your heart like a knife through butter.
But you'd die for the person you love the most, anyways.
So there's nothing wrong with it.

Today:

Corey Taylor and Apocalyptica

Dirty little secret
Dirty little lies
Say your prayers and comb your hair
Save your soul tonight

Drift among the faithful
Bury your desires
Aberrations fill your head
You need to a place to hide and I am...

Do you remember me?
And the kid I used to be?
Do you remember me?

When your world comes crashing down
I want to relay
(Your God ain't looking down on me)
I'm not Jesus
Jesus wasn't there

You confess it all away
But it's only shit to me
(Your God ain't looking down on me)
I'm not Jesus
I will not forgive

No I won't
No I won't

I thought you were a good man
I thought you talked to God
You hippocratic, messianic
Child abusing turned satanic

Do you remember me?
Do you remember me?
And the kid I used to be?
Do you remember?

Do you remember?

When your whole world comes undone
Let me be the one to say
(Your God ain't looking down on me)
I'm not Jesus
You can't run away

And the innocence you spoiled
Found a way to live
(Your God ain't looking down on me)
I'm not Jesus
I will not forgive

I will not forgive
I won't do whatever you wanted
I will not forgive
I won't be whatever you wanted

Do you remember me?
And the kid I used to be?
Not the same as I used to be
Oh, do you remember me?

Me?

When your world comes crashing down
I want to relay
(Your God ain't looking down on me)
I'm not Jesus
Jesus wasn't there

You confess it all away
But it's only shit to me
(Your God ain't looking down on me)
I'm not Jesus
I will not
I'm not Jesus
I will not forgive, yeah
Oh, I will not forgive, yeah yeah
No, I will not forgive

The Poet is a kinsman in the clouds
Who scoffs at archers, loves a stormy day;
But on the ground, among the hooting crowds,
He cannot walk, his wings are in the way.
("The Albatross" by Charles Baudelaire: The Flowers of Evil)

Melancholic beauty of isolation and peculiarity

Phoenix Effect - Stand Your Ground

It means more than I can say
For a broken heart to have soul to lead the way
Oh man… I can feel emotions running deep… in my skin
But the ink will never testify shame
I guess that’s what I´m trying to say
Every sunset hides a new beginning
When troubled clouds surround you
You need to stand your ground
You need to stand your ground

Got balls to play the game
Got a mind of my own, I ain´t no slave
Oh man… I´m gonna ride the wave… ride to win
And every time I fall, I´ll rise again

When troubled clouds surround you
You need to stand your ground x2
When the vultures gather around you
You need to stand your ground x2

You´ll need an army to break me
More than an earthquake to shake me
You´ll need an army to break me
You´ll need an army to break me

Just stand strong
Focus on the horizon
Stand your ground

The Fool on The Hill by John Lennon and Paul McCartney


Day after day, alone on a hill,
The man with the foolish grin is keeping perfectly still
But nobody wants to know him,
They can see he's just a fool
And he never gives an answer.
But the fool on the hill sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head see the world spinning round.
Well on the way, head in a cloud,
The man of a thousand voices talking perfectly loud.
But nobody ever hears him
Or the sound he appears to make
And he never seems to notice.
But the fool on the hill sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head see the world spinning round.
And nobody seems to like him,
They can tell what he wants to do
And he never shows his feelings.
But the fool on the hill sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head see the world spinning round.
He never listens to them,
He knows that they're the fools
They don't like him. The fool on the hill sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head see the world spinning round.

The road not taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I -
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Robert Frost

@Anna

Isn't Robert Frost amazing! His words paint pictures in my mind!

Here is one a great friend of mine sent to me that I <3

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening by R Frost

Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound’s the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.


But today for me:

Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans.
John Lennon

Save Yourself by Sharon Van Etten


I want every town, I need you to know
There's nothing left to sell me, I'm broke

I just want these holes for when I try to run
For no reason, or so I'm told

Don't you think I know you're only trying to save yourself
Don't you think I know you're only trying to save yourself
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Ancient in one long, incidental month
You had a bad day, I want home

You still make me smile, as much as I am reeling
It has been a while, please don't make me show I'm not your gal

Don't you think I know you're only trying to save yourself
Don't you think I know you're only trying to save yourself
Just like everyone else
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Try and make me feel like I'm your number one
Every other one, well, shit, get real

Know you're balding still, you're older than you feel
Think a little harder, a little modest and humble be
I won't wait around

Don't you think I know you're only trying to save yourself
Don't you think I know you're only trying to save yourself
Just like everyone else
You're just like everyone else
You're just like everyone else
You're just like everyone else
