From Far, Far by Yael Naim:


Far far, there's this little girl
She was praying for something to happen to her
Everyday she writes words and more words
Just to speak out the thoughts that keep floating inside
And she's strong when the dreams come cos' they
Take her, cover her, they are all over
The reality looks far now, but don't go

How can you stay outside?
There's a beautiful mess inside
How can you stay outside?
There's a beautiful mess inside

Far far, there's this little girl
She was praying for something good to happen to her
From time to time there're colors and shapes
Dazeling her eyes, tickeling her hands
They invent her a new world with
Oil skies and aquarel rivers
But don't you run away already
Please don't go oh oh

Dangerous, KJ-52

"I wanna hit you up ain't got the words to say
Cause all that junk would do is push you farther away
And every time I see you you acting like it's all ok
Your were the last one I ever thought would fall away
I never thought you'd change never thought you'd stray
And run right back to the very things I know you hate
With all you gone through tell me why you go this way
Caught up in the junk going where you came
Caught up on the run your everyday the same
You hold your head up high living it without no shame
And every day it gets a little harder just try to pray
If I could sit you down here's what I would say..

Your wings are broken yet you keep on flying
Every time I talk to you you never recognize it
Holding on to your past yet you kept denying
Try to mask your hurt in all the junk that your trying
Yet I'll be lying if I said its all ok
Your missing church man It's getting worse today
It's obvious that you're hurt that's the role you play
The one where you blame and push everyone away
I have to say that He's the one you need
The one that died crucified now on that tree
And the final thing I have to say now honestly
The one I'm talking about is me.."

These are not actually my favourite song lyrics but they were very difficult to write and I'm proud of them, even if they are mildly stupid and written in a made up language.

"Thistle and Weeds" by Mumford and Sons

But plant your hope with good seeds
Don't cover yourself with thistle and weeds
Rain down, rain down on me
Look over your hills and be still
The sky above us shoots to kill
Rain down, rain down on me

But I will hold on
I will hold on hope

Agree to disagree?

Well. *Shrugs* The above. Some others that have escaped my mind because I've been listening to instrumental stuff lately.

"Yeah, we all still die
What will you leave behind?"

   Ooh! Songs in languages that don't exist! I rewrote a song in Infernal (read: really broken Welsh). I don't remember what it means, but it sounds pretty. A D&D character I play somehow managed to get stuck in a talent show, and I had to come up with something. I figured she'd probably sing something sad and vaguely unnerving.

The two verses I can remember

Gweoedd pry cosz o ddura
Isrannu ein cartrefza
Cofio o saets teuluol
Drain a mieri o'adran gwanol

Ni fyddwn yn taflu fyrn
Ni fyddwn yn rhin
Ni fyddwn byth yn agyrn
Rymeld emair oerin

That's an odd coincidence. The song I posted was in my language, the Infernal Tongue.

I'm Feeling Patriotic today.

Spoiler

Let freedom ring,
Let the white dove sing.
Let the whole world know that today,
Is a day of a reckoning.
Let the weak be strong,
Let the right be wrong.
Roll the stone away,
Let the guilty pay.
Its Independence Day. ~Independence Day, Martina McBride


American girls and American guys,
We'll always stand up and salute.
We'll always recognize,
When we see ol' glory flying,
There's a lot of men dead,
So we can sleep in peace at night when we lay down our heads.

My daddy served in the army,
Where he lost his right eye.
But he flew a flag out in our yard,
Till the day that he died.
He wanted my mother, my brother, my sister and me.
To grow up and live happy in the land of the free.

Now this nation that I love has fallen under attack.
A mighty sucker-punch came flying in from somewhere in the back.
Soon as we could see clearly through our big black eye,
Man, we lit up your world like the fourth of July.

Hey, Uncle Sam put your name at the top of his list,
And the Statue of Liberty started shaking her fist.
And the eagle will fly and it's gonna be hell,
When you hear Mother Freedom start ringing her bell.
And it'll feel like the whole wide world is raining down on you.
All brought to you courtesy,
Of the Red, White and Blue.  ~Courtesy of The Red White and Blue, Toby Keith.

"No Regrets", Openwater and Matt Vice

"As the world begins to move around you at its pace
And you feel as though you're left alone in empty space
Dream of ways to feel alive
Make a vision of how to thrive
Don't let anyone, anything get in the way of how you survive
Leaving no regrets
Leaving no regrets, no

You
You need to relieve all the need you've been feeling
You
You need to believe to receive all the healing
Leaving no regrets
Leaving no regrets, no"

I love this song, and find the lyrics very relatable. I'm not sure if I hit the meaning of these lyrics correctly, but for me, it sounds like it's talking about addiction.

Well it rains and it pours
When you're out on your own
If I crash on the couch
Can I sleep in my clothes?
'Cause I've spent the night dancing
I'm drunk, I suppose
If it looks like I'm laughing
I'm really just asking to leave

This alone, you're in time for the show
You're the one that I need
I'm the one that you loathe
You can watch me corrode like a beast in repose
'Cause I love all the poison
Away with the boys in the band

I've really been on a bender and it shows
So why don't you blow me a kiss before she goes?

Give me a shot to remember
And you can take all the pain away from me
A kiss and I will surrender
The sharpest lives are the deadliest to lead
A light to burn all the empires
So bright the sun is ashamed to rise and be
In love with all of these vampires
So you can leave like the sane abandoned me

There's a place in the dark where the animals go
You can take off your skin in the cannibal glow
Juliet loves the beat and the lust it commands
Drop the dagger and lather the blood on your hands, Romeo

I've really been on a bender and it shows
So why don't you blow me a kiss before she goes?

Give me a shot to remember
And you can take all the pain away from me
A kiss and I will surrender
The sharpest lives are the deadliest to lead
A light to burn all the empires
So bright the sun is ashamed to rise and be
In love with all of these vampires
So you can leave like the sane abandoned me

Give me a shot to remember
And you can take all the pain away from me
A kiss and I will surrender
The sharpest lives are the deadliest to lead
A light to burn all the empires
So bright the sun is ashamed to rise and be
In love with all of these vampires
So you can leave like the sane abandoned me

 Let there be Night, Powerwolf

(chant in Hebrew)

Let there be night
God bless the father, the son
Let there be night
And day be gone

Let there be night
The mass of dark has begun
Let there be night
And damn the sun

Let there be night
Let there be night
Let there be night
In the darkness

Let there be night
Let there be night
Let there be night
In the darkness

Let there be night
God bless the father, the son
Let there be night
And day be gone

Let there be night
The mass of dark has begun
Let there be night
And damn the sun

"Rubik's Cube", Athlete

The world is too heavy
Too big for my shoulders
Come take this weight off me now

1000's of answers
To one simple question
Come take this weight off me now

Oh I'm like a kid who just won't let it go
Twisting and turning the colours in rows
I'm so intent to find out what it is
This is my Rubik's cube
I know I can figure it out

...

Credits roll over the edge of horizons
That I haven't discovered yet

We got too many gangsters doing, dirty deeds,
To much corruption and crime in the streets.
It's time the long arm of the law,
Put a few more in the ground.
Send them all to their maker, and he'll settle em down,
Yeah you can bet he'll send em down.

Cause justice is the one thing you should always find,
You gotta saddle up your boys, you gotta draw a hard line.
When the gun smoke settles,
We'll sing a victory tune.
And we'll all meet back at the local saloon.

And we'll raise up our glasses,
Against evil forces, singing.
Whisky for my men,
Beer for my horses.
Whisky for my men,
Beer for my horses. ~Beer for My Horses, Toby Keith

I feel no shame I'm proud of where I came from,
I was born and raised in the boondocks.
One thing I know no matter where I go,
I keep my heart and soul, in the boondocks.

And I can feel that,
Muddy water running through my, veins.
And I can hear that,
Lullaby of a midnight, train.
And it sings to me, and sounds familiar.

It's where I learned about livin'
It's where I learned about love.
It's where I learned about working hard,
And having a little was just enough.
It's where I learned about Jesus,
And knowing where I stand.
You can take it or leave it,
This is me, this is who I am!

I feel no shame I'm proud of where I came from,
I was born and raised in the boondocks.
One thing I know, no matter where I go,
I keep my heart and soul, in the boondocks. ~Boondocks, Little Big Town
