Of Meaning To Me....

"Watching Over Me"
Iced Earth


I had a friend many years ago
One tragic night he died
The saddest time of my life
For weeks and weeks I cried
Through the anger and through the tears
I've felt his spirit through the years
I'd swear, He's watching me
Guiding me through hard times

I feel it once again
It's overwhelming me
His spirit's like the wind
The angel guarding me
Oh, I know, oh, I know
He's watching over me
Oh, I know, oh, I know
He's watching over me

We shared dreams like all best friends
Blood brothers at the age of ten
We lived reckless, he paid the price
But why? Why did he have to die?
It still hurts me to this day
Am I selfish for feeling this way?
I know he's an angel now
Together we'll be someday

I feel it once again
It's overwhelming me
His spirit's like the wind
The angel guarding me
Oh, I know, oh, I know
He's watching over me
Oh, I know, oh, I know
He's watching over me

"Love Song"
Tesla

So you think that it's over
Say your love has finally reached the end
Anytime you call Night or day

"When the Children Cry"
White Lion

Little child
Dry your crying eyes
How can I explain
The fear you feel inside
´cause you were born
Into this evil world
Where man is killing man
and no one knows just why

What have we become
Just look what we have done
All that we destroyed
You must build again

When the children cry
Let them know we tried
´cause when the children sing
Then the new world begins

Little child
You must show the way
To a better day
For all the young
´cause you were born
For the world to see
That we all can live
with love and peace

No more presidents
And all the wars will end
One united world under God

When the children cry
Let them know we tried
´cause when the children sing
Then the new world begins

What have we become
Just look what we have done
All that we destroyed
You must build again

No more presidents
And all the wars will end
One united world under God

When the children cry
Let them know we tried
´cause when the children fight
Let them know it ain´t right
When the children pray
Let them know the way
´cause when the children sing
Then the new world begins..

How true these lyics too often are...

"Dyers Eve"
Metallica

Dear Mother
Dear Father
What Is this Hell You Have Put Me Through
Believer
Deceiver
Day in Day out Live My Life Through You
Pushed onto Me What's Wrong or Right
Hidden from this Thing That They Call Life
Dear Mother
Dear Father
Every Thought I'd Think You'd Disapprove
Curator
Dictator
Always Censoring My Every Move
Children Are Seen But Are Not Heard
Tear out Everything Inspired

Innocence
Torn from Me Without Your Shelter
Barred Reality
I'm Living Blindly

Dear Mother
Dear Father
Time Has Frozen Still What's Left of me
Hear Nothing
Say Nothing
Cannot Face the Fact I Think for Me
No Guarantee,it's Life as Is
But Damn You for Not Giving Me My Chance
Dear Mother
Dear Father
You've Clipped My Wings Before I Learned to Fly
Unspoiled
Unspoken
I've Outgrown That Fucking Lullaby
Same Thing I've Always Heard from You
Do as I Say Not as I Do

Innocence
Torn from Me Without Your Shelter
Barred Reality
I'm Living Blindly
I'm in Hell Without You
Cannot Cope Without You Two
Shocked at the World That I See
Innocent Victim Please Rescue Me

Dear Mother
Dear Father
Hidden in Your World You've Made for Me
I'm Seething
I'm Bleeding
Ripping Wounds in Me That Never Heal
Undying Spite I Feel for You
Living out this Hell You Always Knew.

"Straight to Hell"
Drivin 'N Cryin

I grew up just west of the tracks
holding me to hold you back,
around your door she's calling out my name
She said son won't you go outside,
I've got a man coming over tonight
the seventh one in seven days
So I walk on down to the parking lot,
hang around with all my friends,
and roam the streets til dawn breaks again
I come in at five a.m. and she is waiting for me
She said where have you been, I said I was out,
She said you're no good cause you're running without love

Cause I'm going straight to hell
Just like my momma said
I'm going straight to hell
I'm going straight to hell
Just like my momma said
I'm going straight to hell

The black widow and the ladies man
Met down at the laundrmat and tried to make me understand
The neighbors were all in a stir
about what they might have heard
and running down and shouted out it seemed

Next door a girl she lives about the same age as me
and asked me to come upstairs for a see
Just then her mother burst in said your
that son of a bitch in the wind
Get out of my house and hit the road
and I kept fallin like a Rolling Stones song

Cause I'm going straight to hell
Just like my momma said
I'm going straight to hell
I'm going straight to hell
Just like my momma said
I'm going straight to hell

The stars came out and warned me so
As I walked on down the road
Fifty bucks and a suitcase steered me clear
She took my hand as we walked into the sun
A new days promise had begun
We'll make it alone whether you like it or not
I turned around and shouted help me mother

"The Family Ghost"
King Diamond

The darkness came closer to home on the
Following night
And miriam slept like a rock when
Jonathan’s face went white

The bedroom was ice cold
But the fire was burning still
The blinding light
The family ghost had risen again...the ghost

Don’t be scared, don’t be scared now my friend
I am count de lafey
Let me take you to the crypt down below
Where abigail rests

Let miriam sleep
She never would understand
Now come let us go...it’s time to know

Beware of the slippery stairs
You could easily fall and break your neck
Hand me that torch and I will lead the way
To the secret in the dark
Take a look into the vault, the vault
The sarcophagus...of a child
Abigail has been in here for years and years
Stillborn, born...born...born

The spirit of abigail is inside your wife
And there’s only one way you can stop
The rebirth of evil itself
You must take her life now

[wyndwalker]

Damn you people, I don't LISTEN to cheerful music...

"Don't Close Your Eyes"
Kix

What's you're doing out in the night time?
Won't you call me on the phone?
Your mama can't solve your problem
When's daddy ever get home?

So you think you're a little bit wild
In the middle of the suicide

Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
Don't sing your last lullaby

No one there to hold you
No one is your friend
You live life up and down now
Nightmares on your brain

Another lonely way of hanging round
Don't you take it falling down no no

Hold on hold on tight
I'll make everything all right
Wake up don't go away
I'll pray the lord
Your soul to keep

Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
Don't sing your last lullaby

Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
Don't sing your last lullaby

"Phantom of the Opera"
Phantom of the Opera

CHRISTINE
In sleep
he sang to me,
in dreams
he came . . .
that voice
which calls to me
and speaks
my name . . .

And do
I dream again?
For now
I find
the Phantom of the Opera
is there -
inside my mind . . .

PHANTOM
Sing once
again with me
our strange
duet . . .
My power
over you
grows stronger
yet . . .

And though
you turn from me,
to glance
behind,
the Phantom of the Opera
is there -
inside your mind . . .

CHRISTINE
Those who
have seen your face
draw back
in fear . . .
I am
the mask you wear . . .

PHANTOM

It’s me
they hear . . .

BOTH
Your/my spirit
and your/my voice,
in one
combined:
the Phantom of the Opera
is there
inside your/my mind . . .

OFFSTAGE VOICES
He’s there,
the Phantom of the Opera . . .
Beware
the Phantom of the Opera . . .

PHANTOM
In all
your fantasies,
you always
knew
that man
and mystery . . .

CHRISTINE
. . . were both
in you . . .

BOTH
And in
this labyrinth,
where night
is blind,
the Phantom of the Opera
is there/here
inside your/my mind . . .

Sing, my Angel of Music!

CHRISTINE
He’s there,
the Phantom of the Opera .

"Lonely in Love"
Crimson Glory

She awakens from a dream to a silent room
Where shadows speak of memories
Another sleepless night,
Afraid to face the day

It seems so long ago she shared the love
She feels so deep inside
Her love will never die,
But still she feels so lonely...

Lonely in love
Lonely in love

She wakes up to another day
With everything going wrong
She wonders where she would be
If she had never seen his face
She turns on the radio,
But it's playing that same old song
She's pouring another drink
To drown away the memory of it all

She can't wait another night
Take another day
She doesn't want to be

Lonely in love
Lonely in love

There's a feeling she can't explain
That no one can understand
She just needs to get away
But there's no where that she can go
Tomorrow's so far away
She's longing for yesterday
If she could just turn back time
She wants to leave the world behind it all

She can't wait another night
Take another day
She doesn't want to be

Lonely in love

Lonely in love
Lonely in love
Lonely in love

The night will fade, the sun will shine
A new day - Lonely in love
And light the way for you to find

New love

[Pixie]

I know the Phantom of the Opera song and I love that one too-the whole soundtrack is amazing and beautiful and haunting

[Serena Serenity]

Wow........ I've heard some of those, but not all. The ones I haven't, I now want to hear. *waits till she has the way though*

[Alexandrea]

Props for the AFI and the MCR. And as far as Phantom of the Opera goes, I adore it. It's not the best musical in the world but it is enjoyable and the songs and easy to song as well as extremely fun, I sing The Phantom of the Opera all the time in the shower lol...I suggest everyone sing that song in the shower...it sounds so kewl!!! ^_^

"If Tomorrow Never Comes"
Garth Brooks

Sometimes late at night
I lie awake and watch her sleeping
She's lost in peaceful dreams
So I turn out the lights and lay there in the dark
And the thought crosses my mind
If I never wake up in the morning
Would she ever doubt the way I feel
About her in my heart

If tomorrow never comes
Will she know how much I loved her
Did I try in every way to show her every day
That she's my only one
And if my time on earth were through
And she must face the world without me
Is the love I gave her in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes

'Cause I've lost loved ones in my life
Who never knew how much I loved them
Now I live with the regret
That my true feelings for them never were revealed
So I made a promise to myself
To say each day how much she means to me
And avoid that circumstance
Where there's no second chance to tell her how I feel

If tomorrow never comes
Will she know how much I loved her
Did I try in every way to show her every day
That she's my only one
And if my time on earth were through
And she must face the world without me
Is the love I gave her in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes

So tell that someone that you love
Just what you're thinking of
If tomorrow never comes

"To Make You Feel My Love"
Bob Dylan

When the rain is blowing in your face
And the whole world is on your case
I could offer you a warm embrace
To make you feel my love

When evening shadows and the stars appear
And there is no one to dry your tears
I could hold you for a million years
To make you fell my love

I know you haven't made your mind up yet
And I would never do you wrong
I've known it from the moment that we met
There's not doubt in my mind where you belong

I'd go hungry, I'd go black and blue
I'd go crawling down the avenue
There ain't nothing that I wouldn't do
To make you feel my love

The storms are raging on a rolling sea
And on the highway of regret
The winds of change are blowing wild and free
You ain't seen nothin' like me yet

There and nothin' that I wouldn't do
Go to the ends of the earth for you
Make you happy make your dreams come true
To make you feel my love

"Tell Me On A Sunday"
Andrew Lloyd Webber (Sung by Sara Brightman)

Don't write a letter when you want to leave
Don't call me at 3 a.m. from a friend's apartment
I'd like to choose how I hear the news
Take me to a park that's covered with trees
Tell me on a Sunday please

Let me down easy
No big song and dance
No long faces, no long looks
No deep conversation
I know the way we should spend that day
Take me to a zoo that's got chimpanzees
Tell me on a Sunday please


Don't want to know who's to blame
It won't help knowing
Don't want to fight day and night
Bad enough you're going


Don't leave in silence with no word at all
Don't get drunk and slam the door
That's no way to end this
I know how I want you to say goodbye
Find a circus ring with a flying trapeze
Tell me on a Sunday please


Don't want to fight day and night
Bad enough you're going
Don't leave in silence with no word at all
Don't get drunk and slam the door
That's no way to end this
I know how I want you to say goodbye


Don't run off in the pouring rain
Don't call me as they call your plane
Take the hurt out of all the pain
Take me to a park that's covered with trees
Tell me on a Sunday please

[wyndwalker]

"Nothing Like You've Ever Known"
Andrew Lloyd Webber (Sung by Michael Crawford)

Nothing like you've ever known
That's the life I thought that I was gonna show you
You and I had just begun
That's one happy ever after that I owe you

Could have sworn we'd have made the perfect pair
Your heart was on fire when our dream was new
Mine was too

Oh nothing like I've ever known
I thought you would be my last, not just my first love
We were both expecting more
How I miss those early days of unrehearsed love

How did we ever let a moment pass?
If I live a thousand years it still will be new to me

Oh nothing like we'll ever know,
Wonder where you are and what on earth you'll do there

Since then I've known many loves,
But each time I close my eyes, I still see you there....

This Island Earth
The Nylons

Calling all dreamers and optimistic fools
Don't let go of your dream make it now make it all come true
If you believe in a brighter day
I know we can find our way

To this island, in a starry ocean
Poetry in motion, this island earth
Spinnin' like a dancer, gravity is the answer
Rendezvous in the blue, this island earth


We don't know what's in store today
We can spread our wings and we can soar away
Or we can go like the dinosaurs, they say
The choice is ours to make


All this seems like yesterday
We can wake up one day and be history
Or stick around to unravel the mystery
Of how we came to be


On this island, in a starry ocean
Poetry in motion, this island earth
A beautiful oasis for all the human races
The only home that we know, this island earth


Well I know we can touch the stars one day
Kick up the dust on Mars one day
Or trip the light of the Milky Way
We've got to find our way


If you're lookin' for a miracle open your eyes
There was one this morning just about sunrise
Dawn came breakin' like a wave on the sea
And it's there for you and me


Calling all dreamers and optimistic fools
Don't let go of your dream make it now make it all come true
If you believe in a brighter day
I know we can find our way


To this island, in a starry ocean
She's poetry in motion, this island earth
Spinnin' like a dancer, gravity is the answer
Rendezvous in the blue, this island earth


Whoa, this island earth
Got to find our way
Whoa, this island earth
Whoa, this island earth

Creep
Radiohead

When you were here before,
Couldn’t look you in the eye,
You’re just like an angel,
Your skin makes me cry,
You float like a feather,
In a beautiful world.
And I wish I was special,
You’re so fucking special.

But I’m a creep, I’m a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don’t belong here.

I don’t care if it hurts,
I want to have control,
I want a perfect body,
I want a perfect soul,
I want you to notice,
When I’m not around,
You’re so fucking special,
I wish I was special.

But I’m a creep, I’m a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don’t belong here.

She’s running out again,
She’s running out
She’s run run run running out...

Whatever makes you happy,
Whatever you want,
You’re so fucking special,
I wish I was special...

But I’m a creep, I’m a weirdo,
What the hell am I doing here?
I don’t belong here.
I don’t belong here.

The Breakup Song

I can't believe I hung around with you all this time
You drove me crazy with your OCD girl you're out of your mind
I'm counting on UFO's to beam me up I just don't know
How long I can take this shit, I'm over it girl you gotta go

It's over, we're over
Just like in crimson and clover
We're sinking and I'm thinking
How the hell did we get so stupid?
It's the end, ex-girlfriend
I don't care what you think of me
So long, your gone
This is the breakup song!

One more thing before you go would you please give me my records back
My Bloody Valentine, The Pixies, Cheap Trick and Back In Black
You can keep the dog we bought but you can't go near the Standard Bar
Don't hang around, don't call my friends, They won't know who you are!

It's over, we're over
Just like in crimson and clover
We're sinking and I'm thinking
How the hell did we get so stupid?
It's the end, ex-girlfriend
I don't care what you think of me
So long, your gone
This is the breakup song!
So long, your gone
This is the breakup song!

It's over, we're over
Just like in crimson and clover
We're sinking and I'm thinking
How the hell did we get so stupid?
It's the end, ex-girlfriend
I don't care what you think of me
So long, your gone
This is the breakup song!
So long, your gone
This is the breakup song!
So long, your gone
This is the breakup song!
So long, your gone
This is the breakup song!

THIS IS THE BREAKUP SONG!!!
