    Are there songs you hear that make you think the lyrics were written about you and your life right now!

    Only now, not the past, how you feel right at this moment!!!

    ATM mine are ...

    In a manner of speaking
    I just want to say
    That I could never forget the way
    You told me everything
    By saying nothing

    So whats yours??????

    BTW dont mention song names/titles..... just lyrics

    Well, I've fucked the queen, I've fucked Bach
    I've even sucked an old man's cock
    So what, so what
    And I've fucked a sheep, I've fucked a goat
    I rammed my cock right down its throat
    So what, so what
    So what, so what, you boring little fuck

    Great tune. Well worth a listen.

    so ****ing what :p
    "Don't look don't look" the shadows breathe
    Whispering me away from you
    "Don't wake at night to watch her sleep
    You know that you will always lose
    This trembling
    Adored
    Tousled bird mad girl... "
    But every night I burn
    But every night I call your name
    Every night I burn
    Every night I fall again

    "Oh don't talk of love" the shadows purr
    Murmuring me away from you
    "Don't talk of worlds that never were
    The end is all that's ever true
    There's nothing you can ever say
    Nothing you can ever do... "
    Still every night I burn
    Every night I scream your name
    Every night I burn
    Every night the dream's the same
    Every night I burn
    Waiting for my only friend
    Every night I burn
    Waiting for the world to end

    "Just paint your face" the shadows smile
    Slipping me away from you
    "Oh it doesn't matter how you hide
    Find you if we're wanting to
    So slide back down and close your eyes
    Sleep a while
    You must be tired... "
    But every night I burn
    Every night I call your name
    Every night I burn
    Every night I fall again
    Every night I burn
    Scream the animal scream
    Every night I burn
    Dream the crow black dream

    Dream the crow black dream...
    always loved this song. just fits into so many situations
    or this one, for a certain lady :)
    i've waited hours for this
    i've made myself so sick
    i wish i'd stayed
    asleep today

    i never thought this day would end
    i never thought tonight could ever be
    this close to me

    just try to see in the dark
    just try to make it work
    to feel the fear before you're here
    i make the shapes come much too close
    i pull my eyes out
    hold my breath
    and wait until i shake...

    Lay awake
    I don't give a ****
    If I even ever wake up in the morning
    Down below
    There's a pile of sin
    Always waiting for a
    Waiting for a warning

    Burned at the stake
    Inside I'm blistering
    Not a whisper
    Looking in you'd never know it
    Miles below
    I look up again
    When you snap they say
    Before you never show it

    Someone said it's all right
    Save it now, don't say it for my sake
    Someone said it's all right
    Faster now, you know I got no brakes

    Fuses glow
    Wounds festering
    Till the wind comes up
    And takes it to the last pow
    Back and forth
    Staring at the wall
    This room's a cage
    I know that something's got to give now

    Someone said it's all right
    Save it now, don't say it for my sake
    Someone said it's all right
    Faster now, you know I got no brakes

    No brakes

    Ah yeah I know the Cure ones alright. I just meant that by say this time tomorrow there'll probably be four pages of quotes and no name. I'm always on the lookout for new music so makes it easier if the ones I don't recognise have a name on it.

    I never posted a whole song. I'm saying that you should put the name of the artist/song after the short quote so other people can go have a listen. Not exactly rocket science.

    Today was gonna be the day?
    But they'll never throw it back to you
    By now you should've somehow
    Realized what you're not to do
    I don't believe that anybody
    Feels the way I do
    About you now

    And all the roads that lead to you were winding
    And all the lights that light the way are blinding
    There are many things that I would like to say to you
    I don't know how

    I danced for a while
    And my moves
    Would make you smile
    Oh, I loved you then
    My dear chemical lover

    You veiled me in your haze
    Like a puppet in your lace
    Amazing disgrace
    From your
    Silverspoon substance

    You took me away
    Made Monday a Saturday
    You stained me with love
    And left me in dirty laundry
    But I left my ground
    For a minute

    Your body in my veins
    Your power is what remains
    You know I never had
    Such a bad
    Bad comedown

    You took me away
    Made Monday a Saturday
    You stained me with love
    And left me in dirty laundry
    But I left my ground
    For a minute

    My oh my
    You took pride
    In my f**k-up

    I've been cursed
    And I've been hailed
    I have blown it
    And I've inhaled
    But I never had
    Such a bad
    Bad comedown

    Such a bad
    Bad comedown
    Such a bad
    Bad comedown

    Such a Bad Comedown by Nina Persson.

    We do what we must
    because we can.
    For the good of all of us.
    Except the ones who are dead.
    But there's no sense crying over every mistake.
    You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.

    ...

    Anyway, this cake is great.
    It's so delicious and moist.

    The Damned's DOZEN GIRLS was, in fact, written about me.

    won't you tell me the reason why

    he goes out , almost every night?

    he never goes too far,he's always

    the one who's got it right

    chorus

    he's got charm

    he's got style

    he's got a dozen girls

    tell me why,i don't know why

    he's got a dozen girls

    now he's always the one with all the hooks

    when it comes to making it with you

    now i would be there in his place if only

    i knew what it is i had to do

    repeat chorus twice

    he's alright and he dont care,he' got thermal underwear (repeat several times)

    No. I wouldn't even entertain the idea unless the song was clearly about me. It would have to call me by my full name and account for everything specifically.

    Besides even if they did write it I would never hear it as listening to music is not one of my pasttimes. :pac:

    Its worse than it was before

    I could live with being poor

    You walked into the party
    Like you were walking onto a yacht
    Your hat strategically dipped below one eye
    Your scarf it was apricot
    You had one eye in the mirror
    As you watched yourself gavotte
    And all the girls dreamed that they'd be your partner
    They'd be your partner, and

    You're so vain
    You probably think this song is about you
    You're so vain
    I'll bet you think this song is about you
    Don't you? Don't you?

    New Model Army - Green And Grey

    The time I think most clearly
    The time I drift away
    Is on the busride that meanders
    Up these valleys of green and grey
    I get to think about what might have been
    And what may yet come true
    And I get to pass a rainy mile
    Thinking of you

    And all the while, all the while
    I still hear that call
    To the land of gold and poison
    That beckons to us all

    Nothing changes here very much
    I guess you'd say it never will
    The pubs are all full on Friday nights
    And things get started stillWe spent hours last week with Billy boy
    Bleeding, yeah queueing in consualtyStaring at those posters we used to laugh
    at
    Never never land, palm trees by the sea

    Well there was no need for those guys
    To hurt him so bad
    When all they had to do
    Was knock him down
    But no one asks to many questions like that anymore
    Since you left this town

    And tomorrow brings another train
    Another young brave steals away
    But you're the one I remember
    From these valleys of green and the grey

    You used to talk about winners and losers
    All the time - as if that was all there wasAs if we were not of the same blood
    family
    As if we live by different laws
    Do you owe so much less to these
    Rain swept hills
    Than you owe to your good self
    Is it true that the world has always got
    To be something that always seems
    To happen - somewhere else
    For God's sake don't you realise
    That I still hear that call
    Do you think you're so brave
    Just to go running
    To that wicked beckons to us all

    And tomorrow brings another train
    Another young brave steals away
    But you're the one I remember
    From these valleys of green and the grey

    No, not for one secondDid you look behind you
    As you were walking away
    Never once did you wish any of us well
    Those who had chosen to stay
    And if that's what it takes to make it
    In the place that you live today
    Then I guess you'll never read these
    Letters that I send From the valleys of the green and the grey

    and i like the next one cos i'm a fisherman
    New Model Army - Marry The Sea


    In the tall grass upon the dune
    He rests his head on you
    It's a warm wind and a faded sky
    You watch him drifting far away
    Dreaming, drowning

    Did you marry a man who married the sea?
    He looks right through you to the distant grey
    Calling, calling

    Tried to build a wall of sand
    It flows like water through your hand

    Did you marry a man who married the sea?
    He looks right through you to the distant grey
    Calling, calling

    Perhaps it's the color of the sun cut flat
    An' cov'rin' the crossroads I'm standing at,
    Or maybe it's the weather or something like that,
    But mama, you been on my mind.

    I don't mean trouble, please don't put me down, don’t get upset,
    I am not pleading or saying that "I can't forget you."
    I do not pace the floor bowed down and bent, but yet,
    Mama, you been on my mind.

    Even though my eyes is hazy and my thoughts they might be narrow,
    Where you been don't bother me or bring me down in sorrow.
    I don't even mind who you'll be waking with tomorrow,
    But mama, you're just on my mind.

    I am not askin' you to say words like "yes" or "no,"
    Please understand me, I have no place I’m callin’ you to go.
    I'm just whispering to myself so I can't pretend that I don't know,
    Mama, you been on my mind.

    When you wake up in the mornin' and look inside your mirror,
    You know I won't be next to you, no, I won't be near.
    I'd just be curious to know if you can see yourself as clear
    As someone who has had you on his mind.


    Jeff Buckley's version of " mama you've been on my mind"

    It was part of our experiment
    Went you said go and I went
    like a gooseberry on Noah's ark

    I watched them file in two by two
    And I set sail without you
    And we were carried on the flood of your tears

    Time pulls a face when I'm next to you
    Let's hope the wind changes
    Time pulled a face when I'm next to you
    Let's hope the wind changes

    Now I'm looking for dry land
    As all this crying subsides
    But I'm like Columbus in India

    I'm a little all over the shop
    Like those Holy souvenirs from Knock
    that come all the way from China

    Time pulls a face when I'm next to you
    Let's hope the wind changes
    Time pulled a face when I'm next to you
    Let's hope the wind changes

    'Cos we'd be stuck in this place
    For an age or two
    I hope the wind changes
    And the vacuum in space will draw me to you
    I hope the wind changes

    I'm not over you, can I get back under


    Bell x1 "next to you"

    We know the game and were gonna play it

    And if you ask me how Im feeling
    Dont tell me youre too blind to see

    Give you up. give you up

    I would like to leave this city this old town don't smell to pretty
    And I can feel the warning signs running around my mind
    And when I leave this island I'll book myself into a soul asylum
    Cos' I can feel the warning signs running around my mind
    So here I go still scratching around in the same old hole
    My body feels young but my mind is very o--old
    So what do you say you can't give me the dreams that are mine anyway
    Half the world away half the world away half the world away
    I've been lost I've been found but i don't feel down.

    My life is extraordinary bare,i fought the fear and chased the pain,
    My life doesn't need to be explained,
    I chose to walk this life as one.
    Sometimes as i live upon my island,
    Cut off from emotion and it's pain,
    That's when i am tempted by the waters,the waters that can take me far away


    So i'll just keep on walking down this open road,
    Hoping someone somewhere needs me
    So i'll just keep on walking down this open road,
    Talking to the man who knows me,
    The man is me

    My life was once full of people's faces,
    Brought to me by love which isn't strange.
    My life had the goodness of blue waters,
    A day's a day for all i used to say,
    Sometimes i can sit and cry my heart out,
    Drowning in my autocratic ways
    That's when i am tempted by the waters,the waters that can take me far away

    My life is now full of people's faces,
    Within the light of change i pulled away,
    My life shows that "no man is an island"
    I've exchanged the piece of life i cut away
    Now you won't see me walking down that open road,
    I've found someone who needs me,
    No you won't see me walking down that open road,
    I've found at last the man who knows me,
    Yes, he knows me,
    The man was me.
