Without my air

[Ko_B]

I just feel like putting here, some songs, that reminds me one of the greatest air I used to breath.

Pearl Jam - Black

Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay,
lace spread out before me,as her body once did.
All five horizons revolved around her soul,
As the earth to the sun
Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn.

Oh, and all I taught her was everything.
Oh,I know she gave me all that she wore...
And now my bitter hands shake beneath the clouds
of what was everything?
Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black--
tattooed everything.

I take a walk outside.
I'm surrounded by some kids at play.
I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear?

Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head...
I'm spinning-- oh, I'm spinning!
How quick the sun can drop away...

And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
of what was everything.
Oh, my pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...

All the love gone bad, turned my world to black...
tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll be... yeah

Oh oh Oh oh ooo

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky,
but why, why, why can't it be,
oh, can't it be mine?

Souzie and Morrissey - Interlude

Time is like a dream
And now, for a time, you are mine
Lets hold fast to the dream
That tastes and sparkles like wine

Who knows (who knows)
If its real
Or just something were both dreaming of
What seems like an interlude now
Could be the beginning of love

Loving you
Is a world thats strange
So much more than my heart can hold
Loving you
Makes the whole world change
Loving you, I could not grow old

No, nobody knows
When love will end
So till then, sweet friend ...

Time is like a dream
And now, for a time, you are mine
Lets hold fast to the dream
That tastes and sparkles like wine

Who knows (who knows)
If its real
Or just something were both dreaming of ?
What seems like an interlude now
Could be the beginning of love
What seems like an interlude now
Could be the beginning of love
What seems like an interlude now
Could be the beginning of love

Tory Amos - China

China
All the way to New York
I can feel the distance
Getting close
You're right next to me
But I need an airplane
I can feel the distance
As you breathe

Sometimes I think you want me to touch you
How can I when you build the great wall around you
In your eyes I saw a future together
You just look away in the distance

China
Decorates our table
Funny how the cracks don't
Seem to show
Pour the wine, dear
You say we'll take a holiday
But we never can agree on
Where to go

Sometimes I think you want me to touch you
How can I when you build the great wall around you
In your eyes I saw a future together
You just look away in the distance

China
All the way to New York
Maybe you got lost in
Mexico
You're right next to me
I think that you can hear me
Funny how the distance
Learns to grow

Sometimes I think you want me to touch you
How can I when you build the great wall around you
I can feel the distance
I can feel the distance
I can feel the distance getting close...


Tori Amos - Winter

Snow can wait
I forgot my mittens
Wipe my nose, get my new boots on
I get a little warm in my heart
When I think of winter
I put my hand in my father's glove
I run off
Where the drifts get deeper
Sleeping Beauty trips me with a frown
I hear a voice:
"You must learn to stand up
For yourself
'Cause I can't always be around"

He says when you gonna make up your mind
When you gonna love you as much as I do
When you gonna make up your mind
'Cause things are gonna change so fast
All the white horses are still in bed
I tell you that I'll always want you near
You say that things change, my dear

Boys get discovered
As winter melts
Flowers competing for the sun
Years go by
And I'm here still waiting
Withering where some snowman was
Mirror, mirror
Where's the Crystal Palace
But I only can see myself
Skating around the truth who I am
But I know, Dad, the ice is getting thin

When you gonna make up your mind
When you gonna love you as much as I do
When you gonna make up your mind
'Cause things are gonna change so fast
All the white horses are still in bed
I tell you that I'll always want you near
You say that things change, my dear

Hair is grey
And the fires are burning
So many dreams on the shelf
You say I wanted you to be proud of me
I always wanted that myself

When you gonna make up your mind
When you gonna love you as much as I do
When you gonna make up your mind
'Cause things are gonna change so fast
All the white horses have gone ahead
I tell you that I'll always want you near
You say that things change, my dear
Never change
All the white horses

Nick Cave - Are You The One That I've Been Waiting For?

I've felt you coming girl, as you drew near
I knew you'd find me, cause I longed you here
Are you my desitiny? Is this how you'll appear?
Wrapped in a coat with tears in your eyes?
Well take that coat babe, and throw it on the floor
Are you the one that I've been waiting for?


As you've been moving surely toward me
My soul has comforted and assured me
That in time my heart it will reward me
And that all will be revealed
So I've sat and I've watched an ice-age thaw
Are you the one that I've been waiting for?


Out of sorrow entire worlds have been built
Out of longing great wonders have been willed
They're only little tears, darling, let them spill
And lay your head upon my shoulder
Outside my window the world has gone to war
Are you the one that I've been waiting for?


O we will know, won't we?
The stars will explode in the sky
O but they don't, do they?
Stars have their moment and then they die


There's a man who spoke wonders though I've never met him
He said, "He who seeks finds and who knocks will be let in"
I think of you in motion and just how close you are getting
And how every little thing anticipates you
All down my veins my heart-strings call
Are you the one that I've been waiting for?

 

[The Metal Pigeon]

nick cave, tori amos are teh cool with me =)

keep safe over there, that goes for everyone in israel, ive been watching how bad its been getting these past two days.

 

[Kenneth R.]

great bands and songs! if only more people listened to what bands like that had to say about us all

 

[Elyia]

Winter by tori amos is one of my favourites.... i have been trying for hours to play the piano so it sounds like the record, but i didn't succed yet.

But still, one of the most beautiful and tear jerking songs i've ever heard.



I think this one fits your list quite good, Kobi, i hope some of you know this song... its also underneath my favourites.

Creed - Alone

It's been a long day at the bottom of the hill,
she died of a broken heart.
She told me I was living in the past,
drinking from a broken glass.

I'm alone (I never wanna be alone),
now I (now I) try to face the cold.
I'm alone (I never wanna be alone),
now I (now I) try to travel home.

I walked down to the other end of the day,
just to catch those last few waves.
I held out my hand and slowly waved goodbye,
I turned now my eyes up to the sky.

I'm alone (I never wanna be alone),
now I (now I) try to face the cold.
I'm alone (I never wanna be alone),
now I (now I) try to travel home.

She'll come back to me. (She'll come back to me.)
She'll come back to me. (She'll come back to me.)
All alone in this mystery.
She'll come back to me.
I held out my hands into the light and I watched it die,
I know that I was part to play.
My god, my time to die.
Never want to spend my life alone.

I'm alone (I never wanna be alone),
now I (now I) try to face the cold.
I'm alone (I never wanna be alone),
now I (now I) try to travel home.


Hope you'll never be alone...

 

[The Minds Eye]

I really don't like Creed, for me it's really cheesy and forced not heart felt in the slightest, but if it means something to you then thats cool.

 

[Elyia]

you got to listen to that song, and you will change your mind. I started crying i heard it the first time and since then i have to hold myself everytime i listen to it again.

 

[The Metal Pigeon]

eh creed... they're kind of a joke here in the US at the moment

 

[Morticia NL.]

Since when did we start to think that the majority is always right- I'm refering to the comment on creed here.
When I like a song and it has meaning to me, I don't care what everyone else thinks. It's what the words mean to you that counts!

Taste is a personal thing and up to the individual.

Now back to the subject; Black by Pearl Jam is one of my all time favourites- it's heart breakingly beautiful!!!

It's the only song on Ten that i skip always...too many achey breaky depressive memories...

 

[paradoxile]

oh and about creed...at first I thought they were pearl jam copycats(that singer does sound alot like eddie vedder),I even got their first cd "My own prison" still laying somewhere around the house...then i found out they were singing for chirst and thought to myself christ was a jew....eeeww
but seriously I don't encourage religion(any religion) so no creed for me.
I heared weathered about 3 times...got a nice sound to it

 

[Kenneth R.]

the irony is that creed isn't a christian band. people just pegged them as one. i agree with nathalie, and maybe we should let that be and go on to more lyrics...

Marillion - Easter

A ghost of a mist was on the field
The grey and the green together
The noise of a distant farm machine
Out of the first light came
A tattered necklace of hedge end trees
On the southern side of the hill
Betrays where the border runs between
Where Mary Dunoon's boy fell

Easter here again, a time for the blind to see
Easter, surely now can all of your hearts be free

Out of the port of Liverpool
Bound for the North of Ireland
The wash of the spray and horsetail waves
The roll of the sea below

And Easter here again, a time for the blind to see
Easter, surely now can all of your hearts be free

What will you do?
Make a stone of your heart?
Will you set things right?
When you tear them apart?
Will you sleep at night?
With the plough and the stars alight?

What will you do?
With the wire and the gun?
That'll set things right
When it's said and done?
Will you sleep at night?
Is there so much love to hide?

Forgive, Forget
Sing "Never again."

and another by this band,
Marillion - Beautiful

Everybody knows we live in a world
Where they give bad names to beautiful things
Everybody knows we live in a world
Where we don't give beautiful things a second glance
Heaven only knows we live in a world
Where what we call beautiful is just something on sale
People laughing behind their hands
As the fragile and the sensitive are given no chance

And the leaves turn from red to brown
To be trodden down
To be trodden down
And the leaves turn from red to brown
Fall to the ground
Fall to the ground

We don't have to live in a world
Where we give bad names to beautiful things
We should live in a beautiful world
We should give beautiful a second chance

And the leaves fall from red to brown
To be trodden down
Trodden down
And the leaves turn green to red to brown
Fall to the ground
And get kicked around

You strong enough to be
Have you the courage to be
Have you the faith to be
Honest enough to stay
Don't have to be the same
Don't have to be this way
C'mon and sign your name
You wild enough to remain beautiful?
Beautiful

And the leaves turn from red to brown
To be trodden down
Trodden down
And we fall green to red to brown
Fall to the ground
But we can turn it around

You strong enough to be
Why don't you stand up and say
Give yourself a break
They'll laugh at you anyway
So why don't you stand up and be
Beautiful

Black, white, red, gold, and brown
We're stuck in this world
Nowhere to go
Turnin' around
What are you so afraid of?
Show us what you're made of
Be yourself and be beautiful
Beautiful

 

[Androz]

Easter is beutiful, probably my favorite Marillion song from the Hogarth era

If your talking about me I just said my opinion but I also said if it means something to you thats cool, meaning I agree with you.

 

[ariana]

black's lyrics so impressive

Tiamat-Divided

The marriage has gone to my head
The wedding trumpets are dead
Replaced by a static noise
So loud that I can't hear my own voice
Will those signs lead me out of here
Well, just take me somewhere
To the planes where angels sing
Trough the chime and the clattering

For what it's worth the truth might hurt you
There is a little you can do
When shadows fall I will desert you
Then that's what you will do

For what it's worth the truth might hurt you
And with a tear of morning dew...
My temples born anew

Lead me inside
Lead me inside
Lead me inside out of the cold
Let me inside
Feel me inside
When the seed is sown
Our love's dead by dawn

And as the day begins
The sun is soothing my skin
And I am divided
I am divided
For love

I have to say
That all of this time
I waited for someone like you
You are my dream
You are my dream
You are my dream

 

[ariana]

Lake of tears- to blossom blue

I'm bleeding in ways of the tire burned
I'm crying in ways of the nightbird
No more is there one to lay by my side
I'm straying in nightmares all the time

A little something I know
A little somewhere I go reminds me of you

To blossom blue is to blossom without you

I'm breaking but I cannot bear to
I'm staring but I cannot see you
For no more are you to lay by my side
I'm weeping no more then this second time

A little something I know
A little somewhere I go
Where the sweet waters flow reminds me of you

A little something I know
A little somewhere I go
Where the sweet waters flow
Where the mistletoes grow reminds me of you

To blossom blue is to blossom without you

 

[MABI]

From the album "Nieprzyzwoite Piosenki / Indecent Songs"

I put a rose
Upon your pillow
Where you lay your hair
I felt kind of clumsy and artificial
Just putting it right there

There’s a rose
Upon my pillow
An open wound painfully sharp
It’s the perfect sign
You never know how long it’s going to last

Tell me, Will you come back?
Oh, Dearest, I must go away
Every time we hold each other
This could be our final day

There’s a rose
Upon our pillow
Staring us in the face
Telling us to do something
Before it gets too late

I stare
At my pillow
Where we lay side by side
Tightly wrapped together
Safe from the outside

In the shadows
Of early morning
When the village is sound asleep
In the silence
Before the birds sing
I can hear her gently weep

 

[MABI]

and for the end Nick Cave for the hardest it is to learn to breathe again

*** BREATHLESS ***

It's up in the morning and on the downs
Little white clouds like gambolling lambs
And I am breathless over you
And the red-breasted robin beats his wings
His throat it trembles when he sings
For he is helpless before you
The happy hooded bluebells bow
And bend their heads all a-down
Heavied by the early morning dew
At the whispering stream, at the bubbling brook
The fishes leap up to take a look
For they are breathless over you
Still your hands
And still your heart
For still your face comes shining through
And all the morning glows anew
Still your mind
Still your soul
For still, the fire of love is true
And I am breathless without you

The wind circles among the trees
And it bangs about the new-made leaves
For it is breathless without you
The fox chases the rabbit round
The rabbit hides beneath the ground
For he is defenceless without you
The sky of daytime dies away
And all earthly things they stop to play
For we are all breathless without you
I listen to my juddering bones
The blood in my veins and the wind in my lungs
And I am breathless without you
Still your hands
And still your heart
For still your face comes shining through
And all the morning glows anew
Still your soul
Still your mind
Still, the fire of love is true
And I am breathless without you
