[Phoenixx]

The sun is gone and the flowers rot.
Words are spaces between us.
And I should've been drown in the rivers I've found of token lost.
And I should've been down when you made me insecure.

So break me down if it makes you feel right.
And hate me now if it keeps you alright.
You can break me down if it takes all your might,
'cause I'm so much more than meets the eye.

Breakdown ~ Seether

Smile by Uncle Kracker
*I had an idea to put some lyrics to songs onto canvas...I love music!

You make me smile like the sun
Fall outta bed
Sing like a bird
Dizzy in my head
Spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night

You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold
buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Oh, you make me smile​

Guns N' Roses - Civil War

Look at your young men fighting
Look at your women crying
Look at your young men dying
The way they've always done before

Look at the hate we're breeding
Look at the fear we're feeding
Look at the lives we're leading
The way we've always done before

My hands are tied
The billions shift from side to side
And the wars go on with brainwashed pride
For the love of god and our human rights
And all these things are swept aside
By bloody hands time can't deny
And are washed away by your genocide
And history hides the lies of our civil wars

Metallica - Welcome home (sanitarium)

Welcome to where time stands still
No one leaves and no one will
Moon is full, never seems to change
Just labeled mentally deranged

Dream the same thing every night
I see our freedom in my sight
No locked doors, no windows barred
No things to make my brain seem scarred

Sleep my friend and you will see
The dream is my reality
They keep me locked up in this cage
Can't they see it's why my brain says rage

Sanitarium, leave me be
Sanitarium, just leave me alone

Build my fear of what's out there
Can I breathe the open air
Whisper things into my brain
Assuring me that I'm insane

They think our heads are in their hands
But violent use brings violent plans
Keep him tied, it makes him well
He's getting better, can't you tell?

No more can they keep us in
Listen, damn it, we will win
They see it right, they see it well
But they think this saves us from our hell

Sanitarium, leave me be
Sanitarium, just leave me alone
Sanitarium, just leave me alone

Fear of living on, natives getting restless now
Mutiny in the air, got some death to do
Mirror stares back hard, kill, it's such a friendly word
Seems the only way for reaching out again

[Graeme1988]

Grow some balls and speak your mind
You think you're cool, like a porcupine

Biffy Clyro - Stingin' Belle

 

[GhoulsNightOut]

Little sister don’t you be so straight
Let your old folks call ya jailbait
This mean world it belongs to us
It can be yours so don’t hesitate

It’s too late to be a kid in love
It’s too late to be a kid in love
We’re the kids in hate

The Runaways - Little Sister

 

[Phoenixx]

Rest assured,
you’ve done everything to deserve this.
But my friend, in true attempts it is glorious even to fail.
I put the world on mute and woke up in a storm the next day.
And you were gone, my fingers were black.
Protest the dream, it’s a nightmare.

For what you never said, but will always be,
this was always for you, it was never me.
And the day I was gone was the day you would see,
that the honest will die, but they’ll die honestly.
The honest will die, but they’ll die honestly.
They’ll die honestly.

Neuqua Valley Gunslinger ~ Rosaline

''Aquatic nightmare drones are known to freely roam
with little sisters who require their help
I mean to tell you plainly mister, if that thing there was my sister,
I'd believe I'd disown myself, mahhh!''

 

[FlashGit]

I could bend the genius' course
Could give wisdom to the blunt
But I doubt they would be grateful

One wish, a breeze to blow over
the shelves and piles of souvenirs

If only they would come to see
Knowing ages pass before a tree
Will spoil us with complexity
They'd be worth a hall of memories

But it's fools I deal with day and night
Fools that only come for short insight
Though all of past hence waits
In sanctity's sweet embrace.

Hear my song of reverence
To the precious gifts that countenance
To clamber high and dig so deep
And seek what everyone should seek.

The Porter - A Lament ~ Disillusion

 

[Phoenixx]

Only if for a night,
and the only solution was to stand and fight.
And my body was bruised and
I was set alight,
but you came over me like some holy rite.
And although I was burning,
you're the only light,
only if for a night.

The grass was so green against my new clothes,
and I did cartwheels in your honor, dancing on tiptoes.
My own secret ceremonials before the service began,
in the graveyard, doing handstands.

And I heard your voice as clear as day,
and you told me I should concentrate.
It was all so strange,
and so surreal,
that a ghost should be so practical.

Only If For A Night ~ Florence + The Machine

 

[kihira]

Thoughts of you warm my bones
I'm on the way, I'm nearly home
Let's get lost, me and you
An ocean and a rock is nothing to me

 

[spider04]

Searching out
Reaching in
To arrive
Where I began
Sound remembered
Come alive

Embrace the days
Don't turn away
Life's true intent needs patience
Karma starts the signal

 

[Hellhound]

"Sing with me, sing for the years
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tears
Sing with me, just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good lord will take you away"

"If you're after gettin' the honey then you don't go killin' all the bees."

Joe Strummer's "Johnny Appleseed"

 

[Phoenixx]

I'm waking up to ash and dust
I wipe my brow and I sweat my rust
I'm breathing in the chemicals

I'm breaking in, shaping up, then checking out on the prison bus
This is it, the apocalypse

Mine is ... LGFUAD by Motion City Soundtrack... (And I so love the melody)

When I'm depressed, I listen to this song. For some reason it helps me lessen my anxiety. It's like a friend that understands my feelings well. And instead of the typical 'it's gonna be ok' message... it's saying that 'yes, you and your life sucks and it's ok to drown yourself with sorrow and maybe someday you'll gonna get over it but for now allow yourself to 'die'. And I think that's the best word of comfort that I have ever heard from a song.

Yeah so I'm already dead, on the inside,
But I can still pretend.
With my memories and photographs,
I've learned to love the lie.

I wanna know how it feels to be useful and pertinent and have common sense, yeah.
Let me in,
Let me in to the club.
Cause I wanna belong,
And I need to get strong.
And if memory serves.
I'm addicted to words and they're useless.

Let's get f****d up and die.
I'm riding hard on the last legs of every lie.
And the BMX bike of my life is about to explode,
I'm about to explode.

It's the only way I have learned to express myself.
Through other peoples' descriptions of life.
I'm afraid I'm alone and entirely useless.

I believe that I can overcome this and beat everything in the end.
But I choose to abuse for the time being.
Maybe I'll win, but for now I've decided to die.

I'm starting with the Man In The Mirror
I'm asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change
