Post some of the favorite words you've ever heard sung, rapped, spoken, or screamed. Beauty is best unseen but deeply heard.

"If you want a lover
Ill do anything you ask me to
And if you want another kind of love
Ill wear a mask for you
If you want a partner
Take my hand
Or if you want to strike me down in anger
Here I stand
Im your man

If you want a boxer
I will step into the ring for you
And if you want a doctor
Ill examine every inch of you
If you want a driver
Climb inside
Or if you want to take me for a ride
You know you can
Im your man

Ah, the moons too bright
The chains too tight
The beast wont go to sleep
Ive been running through these promises to you
That I made and I could not keep
Ah but a man never got a woman back
Not by begging on his knees
Or Id crawl to you baby
And Id fall at your feet
And Id howl at your beauty
Like a dog in heat
And Id claw at your heart
And Id tear at your sheet
Id say please, please
Im your man

And if youve got to sleep
A moment on the road
I will steer for you
And if you want to work the street alone
Ill disappear for you
If you want a father for your child
Or only want to walk with me a while
Across the sand
Im your man

If you want a lover
Ill do anything you ask me to
And if you want another kind of love
Ill wear a mask for you"

-"I'm your man" by Leonard Cohen

Hero by enrique inglesieas

Whispered) Let me be your hero

Would you dance if I asked you to dance?
Would you run and never look back
Would you cry if you saw me crying
Would you save my soul tonight?

Would you tremble if I touched your lips?
Would you laugh oh please tell me these
Now would you die for the one you love?
Hold me in your arms tonight?

(Chorus)
I can be you hero baby
I can kiss away the pain
I will stand by you forever
You can take my breath away

Would you swear that you'll always be mine?
Would you lie would you run away
Am I in to deep?
Have I lost my mind?
I don't care you're here tonight

Chorus

I just want to hold you (2x)
Am I in too deep?
Have I lost my mind?
Well I don't care you're here tonight

Chorus (2x)

You can take my breath my breath away
I can be your hero

"Superman" By: Goldfinger
(gotta love this song)

So here I am
doing everything I can
holding on to what I am
pretending I'm a superman

I'm trying to keep
the ground on my feet
it seems the world's
falling down around me

The nights are all long
I'm singing this song
to try and make the answers
more than maybe

And I'm so confused
about what to do
sometimes I want
to throw it all away

So here I am
growing older all the time
looking older all the time
feeling younger in my mind

And here I am
doing everything I can
holding on to what I am
pretending I'm a superman

I'm trying to sleep
I lost count of the sheep
my mind is racing faster
every minute

What could I do more
yeah I'm really not sure
I know I'm running circles
but I can't quit

And I'm so confused
about what to do
sometimes I want
to throw it all away

Controlling everything in site
I'm feeling weak
I don't feel right
you're telling me
I have to change
telling me to act my age
but if all that I can do
is just sit and watch time go
then I'll have to say good-bye
life's too short to watch it fly
to watch it fly

So here I am
growing older all the time
looking older all the time
feeling younger in my mind

And here I am
doing everything I can
holding on to what I am
pretending I'm a superman

Here's two of my favorite. Between the Buried and Me - White Wall The monsters are made, and we have proven that we will be one of them. The whores take the stage...flash our skills... gotta draw 'em in...gotta keep 'em on their toes... don't show them how you truly are...who would want honesty... who would want a group of people that one can relate with. We need worship, we need devotion... becoming gods from the image that is thrown... thrown out in their everyday lives to comfort... it's not a musical journey anymore... they chose Camilla and we stood by her the entire time... monotonous expression...a forced replica of a tired sound... puppets for a greed-driven carnival... the same charade as the passing years... force me out there. Don't give them a chance. They want to be fed...fed a simple replication of past greatness. (Things have changed...we have changed. Personal happiness is what we strive to achieve... so you can love or hate...it won't change a thing for us.) Step back. Evaluate. Recognize. We just need to throw some new ideas in... (It) will eventually get out of this closed off circle we are part of... it's all the same. This is all we have when we die. It's what's left of us when we die. We will be remembered for this. White wall. And then: Death - The Flesh and the Power it Holds I told you once but I will say it again when you live the flesh it is the beginning of the end it will take you in it will spit you out behold the flesh and the power it holds passion is a poison laced with pleasure bitter sweet one of many faces that hide deep beneath it will take you in it will spit you out behold the flesh and the power it holds touch, taste, breathe, consumed deja-vu. already knew from the first encounter but know I know to let go of words to speak no more like a wind upon your face you can't see it but you know it's there, when beauty shows its ugly face, just be prepared. [insert amazing solo by Chuck Schuldiner] Passion burns like fire carried by the wind the end of a time, a time to begin it builds you up one way and tears you right back down, a time to begin the end of a time. Touch, taste, breathe, consumed.

cue the sun-daphne loves derby And if I don't come home tonight, Just know I tried my best to fight. Please don't think I plan to lose to the night. And curse the moon so dull and bright, My heavy soul can't stand the light. It burns me straight to the bones, my bones pollen and salt-daphne loves derby I have been holding my breath, For too many nights in a row, And somewhere on coastlines unknown to me You paint your dreams, With reds and blues and greens. Yea you're painting daffodils growing by the sea, Without me. Last night I dreamt you were with me, Finally I could breathe. maga-daphne loves derby If you'll be my love I'll be your mistake If you need your space Then I'll face a distance It's not that I'm brave I just finally realised that I I've never, I've never been there for you white lines and red lights-between the trees We are in each others arms Just like a movie scene Cause as we're leaning in The light decides to turn green Me and you together This is getting better Just butterflies won't do I don't want just red lights I want more of these nights Baby I love you Cause you are the brightest star I'm in love with who you are And you are the brightest star I'm lost without your love

It's a part of a Nas song:

"All I need is one mic
One girl. and one crib
One God to show me how to do things his son did
Pure like a cup pf virgin blood
1-51, one sip'll
Make a ___ flip,
Writin names on my hollow tips, plottin___ ,
Madd violence,
Who I'm gon body these hood politics,
Acknowledge it,
Weed-bodies chopped up in garbages,
Seeds watch us,
Grow up and try to follow us
Police watch us
Roll up and try knock'n us
One knee, I duck
Could it be my time is up?
Wit my luck I got up
The cop shot again
Bus stop glass burst
A fiend drops his heinekin
Riochetin between the spots that I'm hidin in
Blackin out as I shoot back__ gettin hit
This is my hood I'ma rep till the death of it
Till everybody come home
Lil __ is grown
Hood rats dont abortion ya womb
we need more warriors soon
sent from the stars sun and the moon
And its like when the police chase us
Street sweepers and coppers
Stick up kids with no conscience leavin victims with doctors
You think you really ready to die
With nines out
This is what Nas about
My niggas the time is now..

Lost- Avenged Sevenfold

Centuries passed and still the same
War in our blood, some things never change
Fighting for land and personal gain
better your life, justify our pain
The end is knocking
The end is knocking

We've all been lost for most of this life
(lost for most of this life)
Everywhere we turn more hatred surrounds us
And I know that most of us just ain't right
(most of us just ain't right)
Following the wrong steps, being led by pride

How many lives will we take
How many hearts destined to break
Nowhere to run, can't escape
Full of ourselves, tied to our fate
The end is knocking
The end is knocking, yeah

We've all been lost for most of this life
(lost for most of this life)
Everywhere we turn more hatred surrounds us
And I know that most of us just ain't right
(most of us just ain't right)
Following the wrong steps, being led by pride

With peace of mind so hard to find
We're dwelling on the drastic signs
Another way to numb our mind
And as you close your eyes tonight
and pray for a better life
you'll see it flying helplessly away

We've all been lost for most of this life
(lost for most of this life)
Everywhere we turn more hatred surrounds us
And I know that most of us just ain't right
(most of us just ain't right)
Following the wrong steps, being led by pride



The Crimson- Atreyu

I feel it welling up inside and Robert Smith lied
Boys do cry and with blood tears in my eyes
I'm an Anne Rice novel come to life
I can't hide the monster anymore
One can only feel desolate for so long
Until one starts to change
Into something the mirror doesn't recognize
I metamorphasize
The darkness has been biding its time
To claim its latest victim
Fresh meat for carnal desires
To become what I became
I viewed the sun for the last time

[Chorus:]
Will you still hold me when you see what I have done?
Will you still kiss me the same when you taste my victim's blood?
So crimson and red, I feel it flowing from your lips (crimson and red)
My heart is dead and so are you

And it pulses through, the desire to change
The desire to deconstruct all of my past failings
But where to begin because when you live in sin
It's hard to look at saints without them
Reflecting youre jet black auras back on you
And all I have is hope, my inner burn's not fading
I'll wipe the blood from my cheek and get on with my day

[Chorus]

And all I have is hope, and all I need is time
To bury in pine under six feet of time
The lies I told me about myself
Claw my way out, pick the splinters from under my fingernails
I won't lose hope, I won't give in
Just live and breathe and try not to die again

[Chorus x2]

marvelous light- done by many people....
i first heard it at centrifuge.

I once was fatherless,
a stranger with no hope;
Your kindness wakened me,
Awakened me, from my sleep


Your love it beckons deeply,
a call to come and die.
By grace now I will come
And take this life, take your life.

Pre-chorus
Sin has lost it's power,
death has lost it's sting.
From the grave you've risen
VICTORIOUSLY!

Chorus
Into marvelous light I'm running,
Out of darkness, out of shame.
By the cross you are the truth,
You are the life, you are the way


My dead heart now is beating,
My deepest stains now clean.
Your breath fills up my lungs.
Now I'm free. now I'm free!


Lift my hands and spin around,
See the light that i have found.
Oh the marvelous light
Marvelous light

Faith Hill and Tim McGraw are wonderful!!!!!!!!!!
You never looked so good
As you did last night
Underneath the city lights
There walking with your friend
Laughing at the moon
I swear you looked right through me
But I'm still livin' with your goodbye
And you're just goin' on with your life

Chorus:
How can you just walk on by
Without one tear in your eye
Don't you have the slightest feelings left for me
Maybe that's just your way
Of dealing with the pain
Forgetting everything between our rise and fall
Like we never loved at all

You, I hear you're doin' fine
Seems like you're doin' well
As far as I can tell
Time is leaving us behind
(Leavin' us behind)
Another week has passed
And still I haven't laughed yet
So tell me what your secret is baby yeah
(I wanna know, I wanna know, I wanna know)
To letting go, letting go like you did, like you did

Chorus:
How can you just walk on by
Without one tear in your eye
Don't you have the slightest feelings left for me
Maybe that's just your way
Of dealing with the pain
Forgetting everything between our rise and fall
Like we never loved at all

Did you forget the magic...ohh
Did you forget the passion
Did you ever miss me
Ever long to kiss meeeee....

Ohhhh ohohh ohh Baby, baby

Maybe that's just your way
Of dealing with the pain
Forgetting everything between our rise and fall
Like we never loved...at all....

yeah, i kno it is rlly corny but i luv this song, i rlly do...

Aother Perfect Day, American Hi-Fi

i'm holding on waiting for your call
it's simple but i can't explain this
i'm sinking down i feel like i could die
i'm falling off i don't know why

[chorus:]
i still believe it when you say
it's another perfect day
another perfect day
i still believe it when you say
it's another perfect day
another perfect day

so i might try to leave it all behind
i know tommorow's not so bright now
i'll say goodbye cause nothing good can last
(you wear and figured no where fast)
and today i don't know how too keep it all inside
but i guess i'll let it slide

[repeat chorus]

today i don't know why
i thought that it was real
but i guess it's no big deal

[repeat chorus]

i don't know how
i don't know how
to let it slide

There are too many amazing words to choose from, but whatever.

"Your Guardian Angel" by The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus

When I see your smile
Tears roll down my face I can't replace
And now that I'm strong I have figured out
How this world turns cold and it breaks through my soul
And I know I'll find deep inside me I can be the one

I will never let you fall (let you fall)
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all (through it all)
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

It's okay. It's okay. It's okay.
Seasons are changing
And waves are crashing
And stars are falling all for us
Days grow longer and nights grow shorter
I can show you I'll be the one

I will never let you fall (let you fall)
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all (through it all)
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

Cuz you're my, you're my, my, my true love, my whole heart
Please don't throw that away
Cuz I'm here for you
Please don't walk away and
Please tell me you'll stay woah, stay woah

Use me as you will
Pull my strings just for a thrill
And I know I'll be okay
Though my skies are turning gray

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

superstar by tokyo jihen (japanese jazz/rock band) โ€œThe future is a face of ignorance, Iโ€™ll keep making it myself.โ€ Maybe thatโ€™s what you think Itโ€™s just that on a kind of loud morning, I lost my voice But I remember your brightly shining eyes If I were to meet them again, it would not make me happy So this is the me of a feeble today And yet I hate this โ€œAnswers are infinite, Iโ€™ll keep making them myself.โ€ Dying leaves are, as usual, protecting the ground Kicking, walking over that kind of earth is how I search for my voice Each time I remember your decision to stand in solitude I shake, enduring the tears But this is the me of an inept today Tomorrow, I want our hearts to face each other in the flame that burns you As if when we met was something I could be proud of The you inside the TV is my superstar.

This is the song Run by Kutless:


Why do you run why do you hide oh don't you know I
just, just want to be with you.

Looking down from above as you watch TV
Wondering why, oh you're ignoring me
Do you remember, remember when I came to you
And you loved me
And I'm waiting for you
And I'm waiting for you

Why do you run why do you hide oh don't you know I
just, just want to be with you, to be with you
Hey, why do you run why do you hide oh do't you know
I just, just want to be with you, to be with you...

Whatever happened to the love, the love you had for me
When you first came to me
Don't you know that I died, died so I could be with
you forever.
And I'm waiting for you
And I'm waiting for you

Why do you run why do you hide oh don't you know I
just, just want to be with you, to be with you
Hey, why do you run why do you hid oh don't you know
I just, just want to be with you, to be with you...

Find a place of solitude, and I'll speak to you
As you pray to me
Don't you know I'm waiting here, waiting for you to
read and hear my words
I'm waiting here missing the time the times we shared
oh, please come to me

So, why do you run why do you hide oh don't you know I
just, just want to be with you, to be with you
Hey, why do you run why do you hide oh don't you know
I just, just want to be with you, to be with you...

I know this one sounds corny but it brings back so many great memories of me and my BF

Back at one by brian McNight


It's undeniable... that we should be together...
It's unbelievable how I used to say that I'd fall never
The basis you need to know, if you don't know just how I feel,
Then let me show you now that I'm for real...
If all things in time, time will reveal...
Yeah...

One... you're like a dream come true...
Two... just wanna be with you...
Three... girl it's plain to see... that your the only one for me...
Four... repeat steps one through three...
Five... make you fall in love with me...
If ever I believe my work is done... then I start Back at One (yeah)

So Incredible... the way things work themselves out...
And all emotional, once you know what it's all about babe...
And undesirable... for us to be apart...
Never would of made it very far...
Cause you know you've got the keys to my heart
Cause...

One... you're like a dream come true
Two... just wanna be with you
Three... girl it's plain to see... that your the only one for me
Four.. .repeat steps one through three
Five... make you fall in love with me
If ever I believe my work is done... then I start Back at One......

Say farewell to the dark of night... I see the coming of the sun...
I feel like a little child... whose life has just begun...
You came and breathed new life
Into this lonely heart of mine...
You threw out the life line... just in the Nick of Tiimmmeeee.....

One... you're like a dream come true
Two... just wanna be with you
Three... girl it's plain to see... that your the only one for me... girl and...
Four... repeat steps one through three
Five... make you fall in love with me
If ever I believe my work is done... then I start Back at One.

i like a lot of songs... but i guess if i was to put one or two on here i'd say...

My Heart by Paramore (my fav band)

I am finding out that maybe I was wrong
That I've fallen down and I can't do this alone

Stay with me,
This is what I need,
Please.

[Refrain:]
Sing us a song and we'll sing it back to you
We could sing our own but what would it be without you? oh

I am nothing now and it's been so long
Since I've heard the sound, the sound of my only hope

This time I will be listening.

[Repeat Refrain]

This heart, it beats, beats for only you (2x)

This heart, it beats, beats for only you
My heart is yours

This heart, it beats, beats for only you
My heart is yours
(My heart, it beats for you)

This heart, it beats, beats for only you (It beats, beats for only you)
My heart is yours (My heart is yours)

This heart, it beats, beats for only you (Please don't go now, please don't fade away)
My heart, my heart is yours (Please don't go now, please don't fade away)

(Please don't go now, please don't fade away) My heart is yours
(Please don't go now, please don't fade away) My heart is yours
(Please don't go, please don't fade away)
(Please don't go now, please don't fade away) My heart is...

and...

I want you to want me by Letters To Cleo

I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I'd love you to love me
I'm beggin' you to beg me
I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I'd love you to love me
I'll shine up my old brown shoes
Put on a brand new shirt
Get home early from work
If you say that you love me

Didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'
Feeling all alone without a friend you know you feel like dying
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'

I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I'd love you to love me
I'm beggin' you to beg me
I'll shine up my old brown shoes
Put on a brand new shirt
Get home early from work
If you say that you love me

Didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'
Feeling all alone without a friend you know you feel like dying
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin' HEY

Feeling all alone without a friend you know you feel like dying
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'

I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I'd love you to love me
I'm beggin' you to beg me
I want you to want me
I want you to want me
I want you to want me
I want you to want me

Towards the Sky - Kalmah


Time crawls and time flies
Seasons wave when they're passing by
I'm walking along the shore
Wondering is this true or dream?

Now when world is covered with blood
Everything is filled with nothingness
The smoke has covered the sky
And the scene is filled with blackness

Production spitting sh*t
Into this God's gift
Consequences are taking us
We don't care future is here

The energy policy is just a word
Just a tool in a political battle
Time is right but who has got he key
That'll open the sky for the sun to gleam

Warnings and threats fall on deaf ears
Wilderness screams, it cries for help
And from his throne God is watching
The world with empty eyes

Up towards the sky
I send my prayer and
I want her to survive
But without the light she dies

And the cancer is wasting her lungs
I can feel that but I still stay hopeless
And the smoke in the sky won't dispel
And God is too busy to give a damn

Warnings and threats fall on deaf ears
Wilderness screams, it cries for help
And from his throne God is watching
The world with empty eyes

Up towards the sky
I send my prayer and
I want her to survive
But without the light she dies


This song's very interesting to me. Anything by Kalmah interests me haha. It describes whats going on in the world I believe. Oh, and the line " And God is too busy to give a damn " is interpreted different ways (it's meaning, not what's said).

A is for Action by Ima Robot

A is for action
P is for paranoid,
A is for anger out here in the void
C is for countdown
O is for over
LYPSE are for your lips smashed on mine when the world blows up

Hang on hang on
Where do they go?
Save your soul now
Got to stay strong
Hang on hang on
Hangin' on hangin' on
Til the old man bangs the gong

G is for greed
O is for order
V is for villains in 3-piece suits defining the borders
E is for empire
R is for revenue
N is for not for me but none was
MENT for you and me

Hang on hang on
Where do they go?
Save your soul now
got to stay strong
Hang on hang on
Hangin' on hangin' on
Til the old man bangs the gong

We don't care if we're wrong or right
All we wanna do is fight
Who cares if we're wrong or right?
Who cares when we can just fight?
[are you on time]

D is for disease
E is for entropy
A is for acceptance so drop your futile weapons
T is for time [tick tock tick tock...] and you ain't got much left
H is for heaven or hell now let's hear it for
DEATH

Beggars, poets, hustlers
Wall Street, rich boy suckers
my friends, you know that no side's
better in the end
We're all gonna fry together

Hang on hang on
Where should they go?
Save your soul now
got to stay strong
Hang on hang on
Hangin' on hangin' on
Til the old man bangs

Hang on hang on
Where do they go?
Save your soul now
got to stay strong
Hang on hang on
Hangin' on hangin' on
Til the old man bangs the gong

Animal Collective - Cuckoo Cuckoo

How I lost my boy
How I lost my boy
How I lost my boy
How I lost my boy

The king in I died.
He kept floating past my eyes and singing his songs
life was good now death's all wrong
cause you can't feel a thing.
No heart flutters in the spring
You just drift and pray for sun kissed golden days.

I can't hold what's in my hand.
Don't do any good to say this isn't what I planned.
Little kids sliding down the stell park slid.
Little kids can't play with things that have died
Sometimes all I want is is one favorite song.
Two to three minuted doesn't seem that long.
Where's my mom I want to hold her tight.
She's so far away from crowded nights.
I'm going cuckoo cuckoo.
I'm going cuckoo cuckoo.
I'm going

He said please stay.
You can see me, don't go away.
I can't see the landscape.
Please describe its amaranthine haze.
it's odd where I am.
There are people you're not like them.
They just drift and pray for rain quenched golden days.

My tears quench five feet of lawn
I can't creep
I just yawn
People gonna come and people gonna cry
He just woke and ate and dreamt and died.
Don't try and erase what you have done.
Put your fingers in a mouth and kiss it if it wants
Where's my friend, I want to hold him tight
he's so far away from mountain lights
I'm going cuckoo cuckoo
I'm going cuckoo cuckoo
I'm going

I can't hold what's in my hand.
Don't do any good to say this isn't what I planned.
Little kids sliding down the stell park slid.
Little kids can't play with things that have died
Sometimes all I want is is one favorite song.
Two to three minuted doesn't seem that long.
Where's my mom I want to hold her tight.
She's so far away from crowded nights.
I'm going cuckoo cuckoo.
I'm going cuckoo cuckoo.
I'm going
