I flew beyond the sun before it was time
Burning all the gold that held me inside my shell
Waiting for you to pull me back in
I almost had the world in my sight
Lost love
Bright eyes fading
Faster than stars falling
How can I tell you that I've failed?
Tell you I failed
Falling from grace cause I've been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I'm lost in oblivion
I tried to burrow a hole into the ground
Breaking all the fingers and the nails from my hands
The eyes of a child see no wrong
Ignorant bliss, impending doom
Lost love
Bright eyes fading
Faster than stars falling
How can I tell you that I've failed?
Tell you I failed
Falling from grace cause I've been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I'm lost in oblivion
Oblivion - Mastodon
When you can fall for chains of silver,
You can fall for chains of gold,
You can fall for pretty strangers
And the promises they hold.
Romeo and Juliet - Dire Straits
Well, you got nothing to hide,
You can't change who you really are,
You can get a big house and a faster car
You can run away, boy, but you won't go far.
Sovereign Light Cafe - Keane
We are stars - The Pierces
We are stars,
Fashioned in the flesh and bone,
We are islands,
Excuses to remain alone,
We are moons,
Throw ourselves around each other,
We are oceans,
Being controlled by the pull of another.
And I just wanna be loved by you,
Yeah I just wanna be loved by you,
I see nothing worse than to sail this universe without you.
When we met,
I was pulling an angel out of a liar,
We forget,
Satisfaction kills our desire,
We are dreamers,
Wishing upon what we were born from,
We made plans,
Kill them ourselves,
And then we mourn them.
And I just wanna be loved by you,
Yeah I just wanna be loved by you,
I see nothing worse than to sail this universe without you.
And I just wanna be loved by you,
Yeah I just wanna be loved by you,
I see nothing worse than to sail this universe without you.
(I just wanna be loved by you)
I see nothing worse than to sail this universe without you.
(I just wanna be loved by you)
I see nothing worse than to sail this universe without you,
Without you.
All Things Must Pass - George Harrison
Sunrise doesn't last all morning
A cloudburst doesn't last all day
Seems my love is up and has left you with no warning
It's not always going to be this grey
All things must pass
All things must pass away
Sunset doesn't last all evening
A mind can blow those clouds away
After all this, my love is up and must be leaving
It's not always going to be this grey
All things must pass
All things must pass away
All things must pass
None of life's strings can last
So, I must be on my way
And face another day
Now the darkness only stays the night-time
In the morning it will fade away
Daylight is good at arriving at the right time
It's not always going to be this grey
All things must pass
All things must pass away
All things must pass
All things must pass away
All Things Must Pass: Great lyrics!

"Car" by Built to Spill
You get the car, I'll get the night off.
We'll get the chance..
to take the world apart and figure out how it works.
Don't let me know what you find out.
I need a ride.. You need a guide who needs a map.
If I don't die or worse.. I'm gonna need a nap.
At best I'll be asleep when you get back.
I want to see it when you find out what comets, stars, and moons are all about.
I want to see their faces turn to backs of heads and slowly get smaller.
I want to see it now.
I want specifics on the general idea.
I want to think what I should know.
Want you to do to me what you showed.
I want to see movies of my dreams [Repeat: x2]
I want to see it when you get stoned on a cloudy breezy desert afternoon.
I want to see it untame itself and break its owner.
I want to see it now.
I want to see it now
And it's a really beautiful song too!
And it's a really beautiful song too!
Yes, it is. Thanks for the video, Stormbringer. 
Isn't it a pity
Isn't it a shame
How we break each other's hearts
And cause each other pain
Isn't it a pity
Isn't it a shame
How we break each other's hearts
And cause each other pain
Meaningful lyrics!
Agree!
That album (All Things Must Pass) is full of great songs with really good lyrics.
Many of those were written when he was with The Beatles, but weren't included on their albums. Lots of songs, so after the band split up, he made this incredible triple album.
Who are you to judge me
And the life that I live?
I know that I'm not perfect
And that I don't claim to be.
So before you point your fingers,
Be sure your hands are clean.
"Judge Not" - Bob Marley
^ Bob Marley's got some great lyrics!
I particularly like Redemption Song
Old pirates, yes, they rob I;
Sold I to the merchant ships,
Minutes after they took I
From the bottomless pit.
But my hand was made strong
By the hand of the Almighty.
We forward in this generation
Triumphantly.
Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever have:
Redemption songs,
Redemption songs.
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery;
None but ourselves can free our minds.
Have no fear for atomic energy,
'Cause none of them can stop the time.
How long shall they kill our prophets,
While we stand aside and look? Ooh!
Some say it's just a part of it:
We've got to fulfill the Book.
Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever have:
Redemption songs,
Redemption songs,
Redemption songs.
Thanks for posting this song.

Savage - Judas Priest
Who gives you the right to come here and tell me
I have to leave this place my home
To you it's a jungle, to me it's a kingdom
Where (my) people are free there to roam
Born with the stars we are happy and peaceful
'Til now we were left undisturbed
But you rupture the forests our gardens
And fill them with filth from your cities unheard
Savage, who is savage
Leave your morals, stake your claim
Savage, you are savage
Modern man can take the blame
You poisoned my tribe with civilized progress
Baptizing our blood with disease
You christened our bodies with sadness and suffering
Saying then that your god is well-pleased
What have we done to deserve such injustice
Explain to us please if you can
But you can't, no you can't, we can see it in your eyes
Of us both who's the primitive man
Savage, who is savage
Leave your morals, stake your claim
Savage, you are savage
Modern man can take the blame
Opiate - Tool
Choices always were a problem for you
What you need is someone strong to guide you
Deaf and blind and dumb and born to follow
What you need is someone strong to guide you...
Like me
If you want to get your soul to heaven
Trust in me, now don't you judge or question
You are broken now, but faith can heal you
Just do everything i tell you to do
Deaf and blind and dumb and born to follow
What you need is someone strong to guide you
Deaf and blind and dumb and born to follow
Let me lay my holy hands hand upon you
My god's will
Becomes me
When he speaks
He speaks through me
He has needs
Like i do
We both want
To rape you
Jesus christ, why don't you come save my life, now
Open my eyes, blind me with your light, now
Jesus christ, why don't you come save my life, now
Open my eyes, blind me with your lies, now
Here Comes the Sun - The Beatles
Written by George Harrison, who would be 70 years old today.
Here comes the sun,
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's alright
Little darling
It's been a long, cold, lonely winter
Little darling
It feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's alright
Little darling
The smiles returning to the faces
Little darling
It seems like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's alright
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Little darling
I see the ice is slowly melting
Little darling
It seems like years since it's been clear
Here comes the sun,
Here comes the sun and i say,
It's alright
