Shine on you crazy diamond. Now there's a look in your eyes, Like black holes in the sky. Shine on you crazy diamond. You were caught in the crossfire Of childhood and stardom, Blown on the steel breeze. Come on you target for faraway laughter, Come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine! You reached for the secret too soon, You cried for the moon. Shine on you crazy diamond. Threatened by shadows at night, And exposed in the light. Shine on you crazy diamond. Well you wore out your welcome With random precision, Rode on the steel breeze. Come on you raver, you seer of visions, Come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine! ------- Nobody knows where you are, how near or how far. Shine on you crazy diamond. Pile on many more layers and I'll be joining you there. Shine on you crazy diamond. And we'll bask in the shadow of yesterday's triumph, Sail on the steel breeze. Come on you boy child, you winner and loser, Come on you miner for truth and delusion, and shine..

Imagine there's no countries It isn't hard to do Nothing to kill or die for And no religion too Imagine all the people Living life in peace...

You may say I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join us And the world will live as one RE: Favourite Lyrics - Jade - 08-03-2014 The Animals - Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood Quote:Baby, do you understand me now RE: Favourite Lyrics - isis - 03-21-2015 To me, the message of this song is basically: All is One. (But IDK if I'm interpreting it correctly...) Stars - Set Yourself On Fire Wrote:In a village in the hills Another favorite from Stars: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNRji4YOPCs Quote:Ageless beauty RE: Favourite Lyrics - sunnysideup - 03-21-2015 After all the jacks are in their boxes, and the clowns have all gone to bed, you can hear happiness staggering on down the street, footprints dressed in red. And the wind whispers Mary. A broom is drearily sweeping up the broken pieces of yesterday's life. Somewhere a Queen is weeping, somewhere a king has no wife. And the wind it cries Mary. The traffic lights they turn blue tomorrow, and shine the emptyness down on my bed. The tiny island sags downstream, cause the life that lives is dead. And the wind screams Mary. Will the wind ever remember, the names it has blown in the past, and with its crutch, its old age, and its wisdom, it whispers no, this will be the last. And the wind cries Mary. RE: Favourite Lyrics - Nicholas - 06-10-2015 From the underground classic house tune titled "Where You At (Now)" by Derrick L Carter. Where You At... As I stop, and take the time To inventory, the inside of my mind I realise, It's not as full as it used to be. With images of justice, or designs of liberty. The world has changed, or is it me that's new? A different set of morals from a different set of clues. So still I wonder, is this all there is to life? The ever changing cycles of a world that's damp and ripe There must be more! Yeah in my heart I hold to this. Iv'e known the joy of love and iv'e seen the peace and bliss, but as you know, all things must end. Except the need for faith and the spirit that's within, To keep you strong, when it seem's your about to break. Just call upon the strength within and plant it as your stake. Move forward with power! Program yourself to feel, with depth enough to know what's up and heart to sense the real. Where you at? And now a picture, for the frame we set aside. Below the bassline a secret place awaits for us to hide. To pass the time, as the war goes on and on. Post apocalyptic sunset post apocalyptic dawn! But just a thought, of the world we once possessed A place that wasn't ours is just a house with an address. A false existence, wrought with fear and mistrust. No life inside a box, no life inside of us. Find your soul, and use your inner voice. The road less travelled, is now the path of choice. Realise, with time comes change. New attitudes, new values priorities rearranged. Move forward with power. Program yourself to seek. Wield your shield of justice, wield your sword of liberty. Move forward move now! Program yourself to feel. With depth enough to know what's up and heart to sense the real. Where you at? Where...Are...You? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tBEAipYzXX8 RE: Favourite Lyrics - AnthroHeart - 06-10-2015 A tie between U2 I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For and With or Without You and Where the Streets Have No Name RE: Favourite Lyrics - isis - 06-20-2015 Arc Of Time (Time Code) by Bright Eyes You can make a plan Carve it into stone Like a feather falling It is still unknown Until the clock speaks up Says it's time to go You can choose the high Or the lower road You might clench your fist You might fork your tongue As you curse or praise All the things you've done And the faders move And the music dies As we pass over On the arc of time So you'll nurse your love Like a wounded dove In the covered cage of night Every star is crossed By frenetic thoughts They separate and then collide And they twist like sheets 'til you fall asleep And they finally unwind It's a black balloon, It's a dream you'll soon Deny I hear if you make friends With Jesus Christ You'll get right up From that chalk outline And then you'll get dolled up And you'll dress in white All to take your place In his chorus line And then in you'll come With those marching drums In a saintly compromise No more whiskey slurs No more blonde hair girls For your whole eternal life And you'll do the dance That was choreographed At the very dawn of time Singing "I told you son, The day would come, You would die, you die, you die, you die..." To the deepest part Of the human heart The fear of death expands 'til we crack the code, We've always known But could never understand On a circuit board We'll soon be born Again, again, again, again... RE: Favourite Lyrics - Minyatur - 06-24-2015 I've always liked sorrowful lyrics, especially with Mikael Akerfeldt's voice I can't see the meaning of this life I'm leading I try to forget you as you forgot me This time there is nothing left for you to take, this is goodbye Summer is miles and miles away And no one would ask me to stay And I should contemplate this change To ease the pain And I should step out of the rain Turn away Close to ending it all, I am drifting through the stages Of the rapture born within this loss Thoughts of death inside, tear me apart from the core of my soul Summer is miles and miles away And no one would ask me to stay And I should contemplate this change To ease the pain And I should step out of the rain Turn away At times the dark's fading slowly But it never sustains Would someone watch over me In my time of need RE: Favourite Lyrics - Stranger - 11-28-2015 Friends I have to tell you They sent me on a mission down to earth To watch and to observe life And gather information 'bout your birth But what I mostly see is misery And it makes me sad So capable of love yet, too scared to open up and Just wanna be accepted, but can't show that you care Creating problems daily, no wonder some go crazy So special and so gifted, but most don't know, it's there Friends I have to ask you Surrounded by the beauty of this place Why do you make it so hard For all the things you want to come your way Well I don't think you see your destiny And it makes me sad So capable of love yet, too scared to open up and Just wanna be accepted, but can't show that you care Creating problems daily, no wonder some go crazy So special and so gifted, but most don't know, it's there Do it, just let it all out Express emotion Say how you're feeling It's liberating Nothing can hurt you You can be happy But you must believe it (believe it) Well I don't think you see your destiny And it makes me sad So capable of love yet, too scared to open up and Just wanna be accepted, but can't show that you care Creating problems daily, no wonder some go crazy So special and so gifted, but most don't know, it's there So capable of love yet, too scared to open up and Just wanna be accepted Creating problems daily, no wonder some go crazy So special and so gifted, but most don't know, it's there Won't you let me take you down to earth Jem - "Down to Earth" RE: Favourite Lyrics - Stranger - 11-28-2015 If I had one wish, if I had one wish It would be to be free of this fighting all around 'Cause it's so wrong and it could be so right In my heart I know we're here to grow To love, to give, to learn, to live And I believe in miracles, open up your eyes Got a soul, got a mind, got a heart that beats in time You've got a smile, got a voice, got the gift of love You've got it good, don't forget how lucky you are Darling, darling, use it to connect with everyone Don't you know we're golden covered up with mud? One day you'll see the truth that we all share the same blood Supposed to love thy neighbor together we should stand Whatever color, race or creed, come on and hold my hand 'Cause I don't differentiate, we're all the same to me Got a soul, got a mind, got a heart that beats in time You've got a smile, got a voice, got the gift of love You've got it good, don't forget how lucky you are Darling, darling, use it to connect with everyone And it's getting so serious, crushed my heart in pieces But I know I'm not alone in wanting peace, not alone And if you feel what I feel raise your hands with me Got a soul, got a mind, got a heart that beats in time You've got a smile, got a voice, got the gift of love You've got it good, don't forget how lucky you are Darling, darling, use it to connect with everyone Got a soul, got a mind, got a heart that beats in time You've got a smile, got a voice, got the gift of love You've got it good, don't forget how lucky you are Darling, darling, thank you for the moments that we had (Got It Good - Jem) RE: Favourite Lyrics - Diana - 11-28-2015 (06-24-2015, 03:05 PM)Elros Tar-Minyatur Wrote: I've always liked sorrowful lyrics, especially with Mikael Akerfeldt's voiceI love the minor tones in this song. And I love his voice too. Thanks for posting. I like this band. RE: Favourite Lyrics - The_Tired_Philosopher - 11-29-2015 Favorite? I'm like Min, except I'm gay for Nine Inch Nails :3 Favorite Album, The Fragile; First Song on Album: Quote:"Somewhat Damaged" From The Album, Broken: Quote:"Wish" And then my Favorite Favorite all time favorite song ever: Quote:"La Mer" I think this song was actually about Suicide. I identified with most of Nine Inch Nails while growing up. RE: Favourite Lyrics - Cyanatta - 11-29-2015 Odesza - It's Only I heard the news today, That you weren't mine to save I hope that you're comfortable In the quiet lasting grave What is lust if it's not being by yourself? I won't be gentle to the body on the shelf. It's only water It's only fire It's only love It's only slaughter We're only liars It's only blood They're only thoughts that I'm having; Thoughts safe within my head. You're only crying You're only dying You're only dead RE: Favourite Lyrics - The_Tired_Philosopher - 11-29-2015 The remixes for Deep are better than the original. In fact basically every NIN song has a fan remix since Trent Reznor released the multitracks for his songs to be remixed at remix.nin.com. I highly recommend a search of those remixes if you like Nine Inch Nails. Quote:NIN: "Deep" Quote:"Meet Your Master" RE: Favourite Lyrics - Diana - 12-01-2015 I came across this old song by Crosby, Stills & Nash after 911 and there were all those pop songs about supporting our troops. This song seemed to be in such juxtaposition to the (American) 911 patriotic fervor and hatred toward Muslims. This song was written about Viet Nam. I think the lyrics go to the heart of the idea that we are all one. "Wooden Ships" [Stills:] If you smile at me I will understand 'Cause that is something Everybody everywhere does in the same language [Crosby:] I can see by your coat, my friend you're from the other side There's just one thing I got to know Can you tell me please who won? [Stills:] Say can I have some of your purple berries? [Crosby:] Yes, I've been eating them For six or seven weeks now haven't got sick once [Stills:] Probably keep us both alive Wooden ships on the water very free and easy Easy, you know the way it's supposed to be Silver people on the shoreline let us be Talkin' 'bout very free and easy Horror grips us as we watch you die All we can do is echo your anguished cries Stare as all human feelings die We are leaving, you don't need us Aaaah ... Go take your sister then by the hand Lead her away from this foreign land Far away where we might laugh again We are leaving, you don't need us And it's a fair wind Blowin' warm out of the south over my shoulder Guess I'll set a course and go RE: Favourite Lyrics - Jade - 12-02-2015 So good. That's actually probably on the top 5 list of fave songs for my husband. RE: Favourite Lyrics - Parsons - 12-02-2015 @TTP, La Mer is one of my top 3 NIN songs. My fav NIN song due to it's lyrics is: Quote:See the animal in his cage that you built RE: Favourite Lyrics - Parsons - 12-02-2015 This song is my favorite song in terms of recognizing self-worth and not just doing what you think will make others like/accept you: Alanis Morisette - Your Congratulations Quote:I wouldn't have compromised so much RE: Favourite Lyrics - Parsons - 12-02-2015 This is just a song that I find the lyrics to be clever and extremely fun : Quote:Some of us get a little RE: Favourite Lyrics - Jade - 12-02-2015 When I Was A Baby (original song by The Donner Party) When I was baby I looked like a pig My nose a snout and my ears were too big My mother would poke at the hole At the back of my head where my brain was exposed I didn't know it then but never again Would recapture those wonderful days When I was a baby I fell down a well I landed deep down in the furnace of hell The devil would rock me to sleep With stories of cities of ivory and gold It took a long, long time before I could Escape from that terrible hole When I was a baby I lived in a crib I crawled on floors and ate with a bib But then I was taken away And was sold to the circus for trinkets and beads Now I lie awake at night and dream about What I would do if I was ever set free RE: Favourite Lyrics - cloud - 12-03-2015 I am just a copy of a copy of a copy Everything I say has come before Assembled into something into something into something I don't know for certain anymore I am just a shadow of a shadow of a shadow Always trying to catch up with myself I am just an echo of an echo of an echo Listening to someone's cry for help Look what you had to start Why all the change of heart? You need to play your part A copy of a copy of a Now look what you've gone and done Well that doesn't sound like fun See I'm not the only one A copy of a copy of a I am little pieces little pieces little pieces Pieces that were picked up on the way Imprinted with a purpose with a purpose with a purpose A purpose that's become quite clear today https://youtube.com/watch?v=qSomIodjPKg Another favorite of mine is Tool - Schism "I know the peices fit because I watched it fall apart" RE: Favourite Lyrics - Jade - 12-04-2015 Rush - Mission Hold your fire Keep it burning bright Hold the flame 'til the dream ignites A spirit with a vision is a dream With a mission I hear their passionate music Read the words that touch my heart I gaze at their feverish pictures The secrets that set them apart When I feel the powerful visions Their fire has made alive I wish I had that instinct I wish I had that drive Spirits fly on dangerous missions Imaginations on fire Focused high on soaring ambitions Consumed in a single desire In the grip of a nameless possession A slave to the drive of obsession A spirit with a vision is a dream With a mission I watch their images flicker Bringing light to a lifeless screen I walk through their beautiful buildings And I wish I had their dreams But dreams don't need to have motion To keep their spark alive Obsession has to have action Pride turns on the drive It's cold comfort To the ones without it To know how they struggled How they suffered about it If their lives were exotic and strange They would likely have gladly exchanged them For something a little more plain Maybe something a little more sane We each pay a fabulous price For our visions of paradise But a spirit with a vision is a dream With a mission |
