The idea behind this thread is to share song lyrics that mean something special to you. Maybe they describe perfectly how you felt at the time you heard them, or maybe they make a statement that you completely agree with.
You could include the whole song lyrics or just a few lines. As well as posting the lyrics, please tell us why they mean so much to you. Of course, you can comment on lyrics that have already been posted too!
I will start off with "Elton's Song" from the Elton John album "The Fox" (1979). Music by Elton John, Lyrics by Tom Robinson. It describes beautifully the feelings of a boy who has a major crush on an older boy at school.
I first heard this in about 1981 when I was about 17 and travelled to college once a week on the train. There was always a lad waiting on the same platform for a different train with a group of his school mates. He was around 15 I would guess, and I thought he was incredible. I couldn't take my eyes off him, and dreamed of nobody else. Of course, I did nothing about it, and the following school year he wasn't there any more. This song expressed my feelings perfectly.
Staring all alone
And your grace and style
Cut me to the bone
With your razor blade smile
I watched you playing pool
It's all around the school that I love you
I love your gypsy hair
And dark brown eyes
Always unprepared
For your pointed replies
Cynical and lean
I lie awake and dream about you
If you only knew
What I'm going through
Time and again I get ashamed
To say your name
It's hard to grin and bear
When you're standing there
My lips are dry
I catch your eye and look away
Sitting in my room
I've got it bad
Crying for the moon
They think I'm mad
They say it isn't real
But I know what I feel and I love you
But I would give my life
For a single night beside you

I pretty sure everyone whos ever been down in life can agree with these lyrics. Powerful and sutle at the same time. Speaks to almost every closeted teen out there. "Boulavard of Broken Dreams" - Green Day
I walk a lonely road
The only one I that have ever known
Don't know were it goes
But its home to me and I walk alone
I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of broken dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk a...
My shadows the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Till then I walk alone
Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ahhh
Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah
I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the border line of the edge
And were I walk alone
Read between the lines of what's
Fucked up and every things all right
Check my vital signs to know I'm still alive
And I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk a...
My shadows the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Till then I walk alone
Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ahhh
Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah
I walk alone
I walk a...
I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of broken dreams
Were the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk a..
My shadows the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Till then I'll walk alone!

I'd just started going out with a boy who couldn't understand what I saw in him. He had a really low opinion of himself and quite a few issues. But everytime I hear 'More Than Enough' I remember the fantastic times we had.
I've had my ups and downs
My share of grief and sorrow
You exchanged all of my frowns
For magical tomorrows.
You're an ordinary man
In a regal sort of way
Even loaded down with problems
You still brighten up my day
So I give you my all (and I've got nothing less)
And I love you even when times get rough
I know you're always doing your best
And for me....that's more than enough
So if you pass me by
See my smile from ear to ear
Well, that's just the kind of happiness
That I feel each time you're near.
So I give you my all (and I've got nothing less)
And I love you even when times get rough
I know you're always doing your best
And for me....that's more than enough

A song that always gets to me is Fat Boy by Jewel. Growing up—and still sometimes now—I had issues about being overweight. Whenever I feel like I'm less than I could be or that people don't give me a chance because of my appearance this song describes how I feel to a tee... and really, no matter what people say, they'll never know exactly how it feels unless they're walking in the same shoes.
Fat Boy
fat boy goes to the pool
sees his reflection, doesn't know what to do
he feels little inside and filled with pride
oh, fragile flame
no one sees the same
fat boy goes about his day
trying to think of funny things to say
like, "this is just a game I play."
and, "I like me this way."
oh, fragile flame
when no one feels the same
hush, sleep, don't think, just eat
your daddy's little boy
your mama's pride and joy
you know they love ya
but not because they hold ya
fat boy says, "wouldn't it be nice
if I could melt myself like ice
or outrun my skin and just be pure wind."
oh, fragile flame
sometimes I feel the same

I Burn by the Toadies
Driftin' upward
Gently lifting
Lazy on the wind
Rollin' over
Turnin' slowly
Beginning and the end
Fire is bright
Fire is clean
Never so alive
Smoke is freedom
Flame is mercy
I am free tonight
And I burn
I burn
Stoke the embers
Cleanse the spirit
A prayer in every spark
Feel the lick of
Bad religion
The finish and the start
In the beginning
We were smarter
'n flame was heaven-sent
Through the ages
We got stupid
Now we must repent
And I burn
I burn
Save the ashes
For reminders
Stony things remain
Tooth and bone
unimpressive
I have left these things
Because fire is bright
Fire is clean
efficient and divine
Tooth and bone
Charms and dolls
I am free tonight
I BURN
THE AIR
YOU BREATHE
I BURN
THE AIR
YOU BREATHE
I BURN
THE AIR
YOU BREATHE
I burn
I burn
I burn
What can I say, I like fire. Well, and I like the Toadies a lot too. :D Oh, and sorry all the short lyrics make the post so much longer.

The song "And So It Goes" has some of the most beautiful lyrics I have ever heard. It is by Billy Joel, and my choir sang a choral arrangemtn by the King's Singers in grade 9.
In every heart there is a room
A sanctuary safe and strong
To heal the wounds from lovers past
Until a new one comes along
I spoke to you in cautious tones
You answered me with no pretense
And still I feel I said too much
My silence is my self defense
And every time I've held a rose
It seems I only felt the thorns
And so it goes, and so it goes
And so will you soon I suppose
But if my silence made you leave
Then that would be my worst mistake
So I will share this room with you
And you can have this heart to break
And this is why my eyes are closed
It's just as well for all I've seen
And so it goes, and so it goes
And you're the only one who knows
So I would choose to be with you
That's if the choice were mine to make
But you can make decisions too
And you can have this heart to break
And so it goes, and so it goes
And you're the only one who knows

Everytime I hear this song I'm moved. I dunno how to describe it...anyway, Its just about having hope and even if your world is falling apart, there is always someone who cares about you, and is willing to help you through it.
My favourite part is towards the end, when it says:
"...and today I will trust you with the confidence
of a man who's never known defeat
and I'll try my best to just forget
that that man isn't me..."
Relient K - Let It All Out
Let it all out
get it all out
rip it out remove it
don't be alarmed
when the wound begins to bleed
cause we're so scared to find out
what this life's all about
so scared we're going to lose it
not knowing all along
that's exactly what we need
and today I will trust you with confidence
of a man who's never known defeat
but tomorrow, upon hearing what I did
I will stare at you in disbelief
oh, inconsistent me
crying out for consistency
and you said I know that this will hurt
but if I don't break your heart then things will just get worse
If the burden seems too much to bear
Remember
the end will justify the pain it took to get us there
and I'll let it be known
at times I have shown
signs of all my weakness
but somewhere in me
there is strength
and you promise me
that you believe
in time I will defeat this
cause somewhere in me
there is strength
and today I will trust you with the confidence
of a man who's never known defeat
and I'll try my best to just forget
that that man isn't me
reach out to me
make my heart brand new
every beat will be for you
for you
and I know you know
you touched my life
when you touched my heavy heart and made it light

The song 'House Of Cards' by Madina Lake is so awesome, but the lyrics also mean a lot to me. They talk of exactly how I was feeling at that time, because I was so afraid of people finding out.
Take a look (the best part is the chorus):
It's late at night the worlds asleep
And I'm trying not to think
I take some pills cuz my mind bleeds
I'm thinking what is wrong with me
Because the only thing i know
About honesty
Is every lie i told
That you believed
I'm afraid, to be alone
I'm afraid, that one day you'll find out
And you'll be amazed
At the secrets i keep
You'll be amazed
At my mouth full of lies
I'm too afraid to come clean
My life's still free in the house of cards
Now i can't look you in your eye's
Because the guilt is killing me
I try disconnect my heart again
Just so i can breathe
I wanna be myself again
But i just can't cuz
I'm afraid, to be alone
I'm afraid, that one day you'll find out
And you'll be amazed
At the secrets I keep
You'll be amazed
At my mouth full of lies
I'm too afraid to come clean
My life's still free in the house of cards
It's such a shame what I've become
After years of breaking down
My whole life has come undone
Cuz I'm trying to fake it all
And I know that you love someone
But that someone isn't me
Isn't me
No
You'll be amazed
You'll be amazed
You'll be amazed
You'll be amazed
And you'll be amazed
At the secrets i keep
You'll be amazed
At my mouth full of lies
I'm too afraid to come clean
My life's still free in the house of cards
You'll be amazed
You'll be amazed

There is a song by Chantal Kreviazuk (she's Canadian!) that I have got a lot of strength from over the past several months, as I've worked through some very rough times... It is a song about hope, and given the issues I'm dealing with, some of the lines really resound within me. It's really powerful - if you get a chance, give it a listen!
I don't need to be forgiven
I don't want your sympathy
It's a mad, mad world
But it's still turning
Don't want to get too complicated
But it gets so dark that I can't see
It's a mad, mad world
But I'm hoping
I'm waiting for the sun to shine
I'll wait until the day I die
I'm tired of living in the shadow
But I'm not giving up on me
It's a sad, sad world
But I'm still waiting
I can't worry 'bout tomorrow
Or what each new day's going to bring
'Cause every dark cloud
Has a silver lining
I'm waiting for the sun to shine
I'll wait until the day I die
I'm waiting for the sun to shine
(its a mad, mad world, Oh, I'm gona live my life!)
I'll wait until the day I die

I know there is already a song by Relient K but this is my song...
I heard this song just after really unexpected broke up(Trust me. It was quite drama but that's whole different story) I was hurt and he was too. Though it's all good memories now. And this song was the only comfort to me. I used hated to hear this song because it reminds me him and all fun times and sad times but now I listen it when I need little help. Great thread:eusa_clap
When I Go Down
I'll tell you flat out
It hurts so much to think of this
So from my thoughts I will exclude
The very thing that
I hate more than everything is
The way I'm powerless
To dictate my own moods
I've thrown away
So many things that could've been much more
And I just pray
My problems go away if they're ignored
But that's not the way it works
No that's not the way it works
When I go down
I go down hard
And I take everything I've learned
And teach myself some disregard
When I go down
It hurts to hit the bottom
And of the things that got me there
I think, if only I had fought them
If and when I can
Clear myself of this clouded mind
I'll watch myself settle down
Into a place where
Peace can search me out and find
That I'm so ready to be found
I've thrown away
The hope I had in friendships
I've thrown away
So many things that could have been much more
I've thrown away
The secret to find an end to this
And I just pray
My problems go away if they're ignored
But that's not the way it works
No that's not the way it works
When I go down
I go down hard
And I take everything I've learned
And teach myself some disregard
When I go down
It hurts to hit the bottom
And of the things that got me there
I think, if only I had fought them
Any control I thought I had just slips right through my hands
While my ever-present conscience shakes its head and reprimands me
Reprimands me
Then and there
I confess
I'll blame all this on my selfishness
Yet you love me
And that consumes me
And I'll stand up again
And do so willingly
You give me hope, and hope it gives me life
You touch my heavy heart, and when you do you make it light
As I exhale I hear your voice
And I answer you, though I hardly make a noise
And from my lips the words I choose to say
Seem pathetic, but it's fallen man's praise
Because I love you
Oh God, I love you
And life is now worth living
If only because of you
And when they say that I'm dead and gone
It won't be further from the truth
When I go down
I lift my eyes to you
I won't look very far
Cause you'll be there
With open arms
To lift me up again
To lift me up again

Well I don't really have any songs that have meaningful lyrics (to me) but my cousin who is a heavy Tupac fan showed me a song, and since I couldn't understand it very well she told me what it was saying. :D
2pac - Ghetto Gospel
Hit 'em with a little ghetto gospel
(Chorus)
Those who wish to follow me,
I welcome with my hands
And the red sun seems to last
Into the hills of Gold
And peace to this young warrior
Without the sound of guns
(Tupac)
If I could recollect before my hood days,
I'd sit and reminisce, thinking in bliss of the good days
I stop and stare at the younger,
My heart goes to 'em
They test what they stress that they under
And nowadays, things changed
Everyone's ashamed of the youth
Cos the truth look strange
And for me, it's reverse
We left them a world that's cursed, and it hurts
Cos any day, they'll push the button
And all the good men, like Malcom X and Bobbie Hunton die for nothing
Thought that'd make me get teary, the world looks dreary
When finally, your eyes see it clearly
There's no need for you to fear me,
If you take your time to hear me
Maybe you could learn to cheer me
It ain't about black or white cos we human
I hope we see the light before it's ruined
My ghetto gospel
(Chorus)
Tell me, do you see that old lady, ain't it sad
Livin' outa bags but she's glad, for the little things she has
And over there, there's a lady
Crack got her crazy, yet she's givin' birth to her baby
I don't trip and let it fade me
From out of the frying pan, we jump into another form of slavery
Even now, I get discouraged
Wonder if they take it all back, will I still keep the courage
I refuse to be a role model,
I set goals, take control, drink out my own bottles
I made mistakes but learned from everyone
And when it's said and done, I bet this brother be a better one
If I upset you, don't stress
Never forget that God isn't finished with me yet
I feel his hand on my brain when I write rhymes
I go blind and let the Lord do his thing
But am I less Holy?
Cos I choose to puff a blunt, and drink a beer with my homies
Before we find world peace, we gotta find peace and end the war in the streets
My ghetto gospel
(Chorus)
"Lord, can you hear me speak,
I paid the price for being hell bound"

Sugar Free by Hedley is more relatable than any other song for me. Usually.
"Sugar Free"
Tight Rope Walking ain't That Hard
After Slamming Back A Few
You're Laughing Now But It ain't That Funny
When They Get Through With You
Tell me we're all about failing and being wrong
Tell me I'll never let go of you, I will never give or take you for a ride
And I can't hear myself scream (If I Never Loved You, I Wouldn't Cry)
And I can't hear myself dream (If Loving Meant Living, Then I Wouldn't Die)
And I can't let myself go, waiting for you, waiting for you
And I can't feel myself crying
Standing closer ain't that bad
With your hands upon your face
You look too far I looked much harder
And they lost all sense of trace
Me and draw up colour me lost and found
Tear me down lift me up you make me feel so god damn colder than you're bleeding eyes
And I can't hear myself scream (If I Never Loved You, I Wouldn't Cry)
And I can't hear myself dream (If Loving Meant Living, Then I Wouldn't Die)
And I can't let myself go, waiting for you, waiting for you
And I can't feel myself crying
If I Never Knew You
I'd Never Love You
If I Never Loved You
Then I Wouldn't Cry
If I Never Hold You
Then I'll never know you
If Loving Meant Living
Then I Wouldn't Die
And I can't hear myself scream (If I Never Loved You, I Wouldn't Cry)
And I can't hear myself dream (If Loving Meant Living, Then I Wouldn't Die)
And I can't let myself go, waiting for you, waiting for you
And I can't feel myself crying
And I can't hear myself scream (If I Never Loved You, I Wouldn't Cry)
And I can't hear myself dream (If Loving Meant Living, Then I Wouldn't Die)
And I can't hear myself scream (If I Never Loved You, I Wouldn't Cry)
And I can't hear myself dream (If Loving Meant Living, Then I Wouldn't Die)

Kill The Messenger by Jack's Mannequin
Oh my God, this hurts like hell
I had that dream again where
I was lost for good in outer space
Tell me, doctor, how to shake
A waking nightmare that is only
Worse when I am sleeping
Kill the messenger
I swear it's not me
It's just someone I used to know
And get to church cause you're a good girl
And he never told you that
And all I need from you
Could be the thing that
Leaves us both up here forever
I'm gonna send a little rain your way
I'm gonna send a little rain...
It's not so easy, caving in
I walked by your apartment twice today
While you were gone at work
And all the colors got so down
It's not as cold out here
But come quick, I am losing feeling
Kill the messenger
I swear it's not me
It's just someone I used to know
And get to church cause you're a good girl
And he never told you that
And all I need from you
Could be the thing that
Leaves us both up here forever
I'm gonna send a little rain your way
I'm gonna send a little rain, send a little rain
I'm gonna send a little rain to pour down on you
Rain that makes the flowers bloom
Rain to leave you all alone
That keeps eyelashes falling
And wishes washed away
Kill the messenger
I swear it's not me
It's just someone I used to know
And get to church cause you're a good girl
And he never told you that
And all I need from you
Could be the thing that
Leaves us both up here forever
I'm gonna send a little rain your way
I'm gonna send a little rain...
I'm gonna send a little rain your way

I love Pat Benatar and i like her song Shadows of the Night although im not too sure why.
We're runnin with the shadows of the night so baby take my hand it'll be alright
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight they'll come true in the end
You said oh girl its a cold world when you keep it all to yourself
I said you cant hide on the inside all the pain you've ever felt
Randsom my heart but baby dont look back cause we got nobody else
We're runnin with the shadows of the night so baby take my hand it'll be alright
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight they'll come true in the end
You know sometimes it feels like its all movin way too fast
Use every alibi and words you deny that love will never last
You can cry tough baby its alright you can let me down easy but not tonight
We're runnin with the shadows of the night so baby take my hand it'll be alright
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight they'll come true in the end
We're runnin with the shadows of the night so baby take my hand it'll be alright
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight they'll come true in the end
And now the hands of time are standin still Midnight Angel wont you say you will
We're runnin with the shadows of the night so baby take my hand it'll be alright
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight they'll come true in the end
We're runnin with the shadows of the night so baby take my hand it'll be alright
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight they'll come true in the end
We're runnin with the shadows of the night so baby take my hand it'll be alright
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight they'll come true in the end

It's not so very special to me in so much as it reminds me of anything or anyone, other than myself a bit.. but it made me cry when I first listened to it.
Please, remember me
Happily
By the rosebush laughing
With bruises on my chin
The time when
We counted every black car passing
Your house beneath the hill
And up until
Someone caught us in the kitchen
With maps, a mountain range
A piggy bank
A vision too removed to mention
But
Please, remember me
Fondly
I heard from someone you're still pretty
And then
They went on to say
That the pearly gates
Had some eloquent graffiti
Like "We'll meet again"
And "Fuck the man"
And "Tell my mother not to worry"
And angels with their great
Handshakes
Were always done in such a hurry
And
Please, remember me
At Halloween
Making fools of all the neighbors
Our faces painted white
By midnight
We'd forgotten one another
And when the morning came
I was ashamed
Only now it seems so silly
That season left the world
And then returned
And now you're lit up by the city
So
Please, remember me
Mistakenly
In the window of the tallest tower
Calling passers-by
But much too high
To see the empty road at happy hour
Gleam and resonate
Just like the gates
Around the holy kingdom
With words like "Lost and found"
And "Don't look down"
And "Someone save Temptation"
And
Please, remember me
As in the dream
We had as rug-burn babies
Among the fallen trees
And fast asleep
Aside the lions and the ladies
That called you what you like
And even might
Give a gift for your behavior
A fleeting chance to see
A trapeze
Swing as high as any savior
But
Please, remember me
My misery
And how it lost me all I wanted
Those dogs that love the rain
And chasing trains
The colored birds above their running
In circles around the well
And where it spells
On the wall behind St. Peter
So bright with cinder gray
And spray paint
"Who the hell can see forever?"
And
Please, remember me
Seldomly
In the car behind the carnival
My hand between your knees
You turned from me
And said, "The trapeze act was wonderful
But never meant to last"
The clown that passed
Saw me just come up with anger
When it filled with circus dogs
The parking lot
Had an element of danger
So
Please, remember me
Finally
And all my uphill clawing
My dear
But if I make
The pearly gates
Do my best to make a drawing
Of God and Lucifer
A boy and girl
An angel kissing on a sinner
A monkey and a man
A marching band
All around the frightened trapeze swingers

This thread is so cool. I use sings lyrics to express my feelings to people. I have tons of favorite songs. But this one is special, because my experiences are the smae as every word in it. I also hav some lyrics in my blog.
BON JOVI
Welcome To Wherever You Are
Maybe we're different, but we're still the same
We all got the blood of Eden, running through our veins
I know sometimes it's hard for you to see
You come between just who you are and who you wanna be
If you feel alone, and lost and need a friend
Remember every new beginning, is some beginning's end
[Chorus]
Welcome to wherever you are
This is your life, you made it this far
Welcome, you gotta believe
That right here right now, you're exactly where you're supposed to be
Welcome, to wherever you are
When everybody's in, and you're left out
And you feel your drowning, in a shadow of a doubt
Everyones a miracle in their own way
Just listen to yourself, not what other people say
When it seems you're lost, alone and feeling down
Remember everybody's different
Just take a look around
[Chorus]
Be who you want to, be who you are
Everyones a hero, everyones a star
When you wanna give up, and your hearts about to break
Remember that you're perfect, God makes no mistakes
[Chorus]

I know what it is like when the only thing letting you know that you are still alive, is pain. A hurt deep down inside that even before you wake up in the morning, you are already having a bad day. I have suffered with migraines since I was young, every year it gets worse and worse, and now at 17, I am loosing my vision little by little. The only thing that is worse then a doctor telling you that you have a brain tumor or cancer, is when he tells you that there is nothing wrong at all, no explanation, no tests can validate the pain I suffer. I don’t go get high, get loose, cut myself, blame someone else, or even complain. It wouldn’t help. On top of all of this, I am a closet homosexual which some of you can relate to. But in life I can only “focus on the pain, because it’s the only thing that’s real.” This song, for me, IS the validation of pain. Pain unfortunately is a part of life, undesirable, but ever-present. But in the end, “If I could start again, A million miles away, I would keep myself, I would find a way.”
"Hurt"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AO9dbmJ_2zU
I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything
[Chorus:]
What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
I wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here
[Chorus:]
What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way
This is a great thread!

I LOVE THAT SONG. *glomps* JOHNNY CASH IS THE MAN. HE IS AMAZING. He wrote that with the singer from Nine Inch Nails (Trent Reznor I believe his name is).

from Meg & Dia, the lyrics to Monster:
His little whispers.
Love Me. Love Me.
That's all I ask for.
Love Me. Love Me.
He battered his tiny fists to feel something.
Wondered what it's like to touch and feel something.
Monster.
How should I feel?
Creatures lie here.
Looking through the window...
That night he caged her.
Bruised and broke her.
He struggled closer.
Then he stole her.
Violet wrists and then her ankles.
Silent Pain.
Then he slowly saw their nightmares were his dreams.
Monster.
How should I feel?
Creatures lie here.
Looking through the windows.
I will.
Hear their voices.
I'm a glass child.
I am Hannah's regrets.
Monster.
How should I feel?
Turn the sheets down.
Murder ears with pillow lace.
There's bath tubs.
Full of glow flies.
Bathe in kerosene.
Their words tattoed in his veins.

Probably the best political protest song in 20 years...
by Pink & The Indigo Girls
Dear Mr. President
Dear Mr. President,
Come take a walk with me.
Let's pretend we're just two people and
You're not better than me.
I'd like to ask you some questions if we can speak honestly.
What do you feel when you see all the homeless on the street?
Who do you pray for at night before you go to sleep?
What do you feel when you look in the mirror?
Are you proud?
How do you sleep while the rest of us cry?
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye?
How do you walk with your head held high?
Can you even look me in the eye
And tell me why?
Dear Mr. President,
Were you a lonely boy?
Are you a lonely boy?
Are you a lonely boy?
How can you say
No child is left behind?
We're not dumb and we're not blind.
They're all sitting in your cells
While you pave the road to hell.
What kind of father would take his own daughter's rights away?
And what kind of father might hate his own daughter if she were gay?
I can only imagine what the first lady has to say
You've come a long way from whiskey and cocaine.
How do you sleep while the rest of us cry?
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye?
How do you walk with your head held high?
Can you even look me in the eye?
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Minimum wage with a baby on the way
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Rebuilding your house after the bombs took them away
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Building a bed out of a cardboard box
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
You don't know nothing 'bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
Oh
How do you sleep at night?
How do you walk with your head held high?
Dear Mr. President,
You'd never take a walk with me.
Would you?

And one more...
Totally relevant to my relationship with one ex...
by Dido
White Flag
I know you think that I shouldn't still love you,
Or tell you that.
But if I didn't say it, well I'd still have felt it
where's the sense in that?
I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder
Or return to where we were
I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be
I know I left too much mess and
destruction to come back again
And I caused nothing but trouble
I understand if you can't talk to me again
And if you live by the rules of "it's over"
then I'm sure that that makes sense
I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be
And when we meet
Which I'm sure we will
All that was there
Will be there still
I'll let it pass
And hold my tongue
And you will think
That I've moved on....
I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be
I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be
I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

And this (despite the fact that I don't actually believe in angels and heaven) totally makes me think of my Mum...
by Chantal Kreviazuk
Flying Home
Its hard to let you go
You've always let me in
And helped with all the endings
And you know where to begin
I need you here for me
Cause you always know my heart
I cant believe we'd change
Or have to be apart
But if you've seen the love that's in her eyes
Then everything is good
And if you know the way she felt inside
She's flying where she should
I never believed we'd ever live to see
An angel being born and flying home
Its good to know your laugh
And you'll always hold my hand
And watch from up in heaven
And always understand
We'll take you down the road
And in everything we do
We'll know how much you love us
A soul that's kind and true.
But if you've seen the love that's in her eyes
Then everything is good
And if you know the way she felt inside
She's flying where she should
I never believed we'd ever live to see
An angel being born and flying home

The Show Must Go On by Queen - from the album Innuendo (1991)
Empty spaces - what are we living for?
Abandoned places - I guess we know the score..
On and on!
Does anybody know what we are looking for?
Another hero - another mindless crime.
Behind the curtain, in the pantomime.
Hold the line!
Does anybody want to take it anymore?
The Show must go on!
The Show must go on!
Inside my heart is breaking,
My make-up may be flaking,
But my smile, still, stays on!
Whatever happens, I'll leave it all to chance.
Another heartache - another failed romance.
On and on!
Does anybody know what we are living for?
I guess i'm learning
I must be warmer now..
I'll soon be turning round the corner now.
Outside the dawn is breaking,
But inside in the dark I'm aching to be free!
The Show must go on!
The Show must go on! Yeah!
Ooh! Inside my heart is breaking!
My make-up may be flaking!
But my smile, still, stays on!
Yeah! oh oh oh
My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies,
Fairy tales of yesterday, will grow but never die,
I can fly, my friends!
The Show must go on! Yeah!
The Show must go on!
I'll face it with a grin!
I'm never giving in!
On with the show!
I'll top the bill!
I'll overkill!
I have to find the will to carry on!
On with the,
On with the show!
The Show must go on.

I like this one by Pink who I <3
Who Knew
You took my hand
You showed me how
You promised me you'd be around
Uh huh
That's right
I took your words
And I believed
In everything
You said to me
Yeah huh
That's right
If someone said three years from now
You'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them out
Cause they're all wrong
I know better
Cause you said forever
And ever
Who knew
Remember when we were such fools
And so convinced and just too cool
Oh no
No no
I wish I could touch you again
I wish I could still call you friend
I'd give anything
When someone said count your blessings now
For they're long gone
I guess I just didn't know how
I was all wrong
They knew better
Still you said forever
And ever
Who knew
Yeah yeah
I'll keep you locked in my head
Until we meet again
Until we
Until we meet again
And I won't forget you my friend
What happened
If someone said three years from now
You'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them out
Cause they're all wrong and
That last kiss
I'll cherish
Until we meet again
And time makes
It harder
I wish I could remember
But I keep
Your memory
You visit me in my sleep
My darling
Who knew
My darling
My darling
Who knew
My darling
I miss you
My darling
Who knew
Who knew

Hello, Salute, it’s me your Duke
And I made something that’s real
To show you how I feel
Hello, Hello, it’s me Picasso
I will paint my words of love
With your name on every wall
When you leave my colors fade to gray
I need a love to stay or
All my colors fade away
Every word of love I used to say
Now I paint it everyday
I sold my strings, my songs, and dreams
And I bought some paints to match the colors of my love
Hello, Hello, it’s me ,Picasso
I will spray my words of my love
With your name on every wall
When you leave my colors fade to gray
Little lover stay
All my colors fade away
Every word of love I used to say
Now I paint it everyday

I <3 Mariah Carey and her song Hero sounds like it has a good message in it
"Hero"
There's a hero
If you look inside your heart
You don't have to be afraid
Of what you are
There's an answer
If you reach into your soul
And the sorrow that you know
Will melt away
[Chorus:]
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you
It's a long road
When you face the world alone
No one reaches out a hand
For you to hold
You can find love
If you search within yourself
And the emptiness you felt
Will disappear
[Chorus]
Lord knows
Dreams are hard to follow
But don't let anyone
Tear them away
Just hold on
There will be tomorrow
And in time
You'll find the way
[Chorus]

My newest favorite song, Dal by Skinny Puppy, an electronic/industrial rock band who's been around since 1982. This is track two on their newest album, which was released in January of 2007.
The song itself: http://youtube.com/watch?v=NEQL3RMmuSM
note: if you're actaully about to read these lyrics, try not to take them at face value, it's highly metaphorical.
Skinny Puppy - Dal
Find
words fade above the snow
the carved out somebody stitch
the carver's all who waves surrender
through all tempers looking back
the skin begins to crack
those ever double jointed blamers
Fine
closed off no power the wheel inside no peace
no feeling all disease around security
Eyes
devised the cycles find
a call that's never caught
beneath the locusts timed decision
Find
the vice grips never freed
a crease upon one's debt
and never paying forward
Hate
what will we won't be late
what will be left today
when nothing left to beg the moral
Fate
what is it left can't you say
who will be left to pay
when ugly crippled eyes remain
Fine
closed off devoured the meat inside of me
in freeing all afraid of life eternity
Eyes
burning of sorrow deep craving inside no teeth
holding on nothing left to be believed
Fear
what will we want with fear
the time of bombing near
when nothings left to have or hope for
Pain
what is there left to say
an ancient plan to pay
with blood and shit tomorrow
Shame
we will be learning shame
until we play the game
that in the end will bring disorder
Race
what will be left to say
when nothing is the same
and all this shit goes over
Steping out behind mask
kiss the mercantile abscess
run behind (teach fertile?) blood
the fingernails are dirty
Face the combination loss
and go toward the final cost
a cripple's desk a lost foothold
Suffering at the end scene
Fine
closed off devoured the meat inside of me
in freeing all afraid of life eternity

Cassie
The question asked in order
To save her life or take it
The answer no to avoid death
The answer yes would make it
Do you believe in God
Written on the bullet
Say yes to pull the trigger
Do you believe in God
Written on the bullet
And Cassie pulled the trigger
All heads are bowed in silence
To remember her last sentence
She answered him knowing what would happen
Her last words still hanging in the air
In the air
Do you believe in God
Written on the bullet
Say yes to pull the trigger
Do you believe in God
Written on the bullet
And Cassie pulled the trigger
How many will die
I will die
I, I will say yes
Do you believe in God
Written on the bullet
Say yes to pull the trigger
Do you believe in God
Written on the bullet
And Cassie pulled the trigger
Do you believe in God
Do you believe in God
Do you believe in God
And I will pull the trigger

This song means a lot to me, and it's really one of my favourite songs of all time. It's called "Point of No Return," and it's from Phantom of the Opera.
Phantom:
Past the point of no return
No backward glances
Our games of make-believe are at an end
Past all thought of if or when
No use resisting
Abandon thought and let the dream descend
What raging fires shall flood the soul?
What rich desires unlock their doors?
What sweet seduction lies before us?
Past the point of no return
The final threshold
What warm unspoken secrets will we learn?
Beyond the point of no return...
Christine:
You have brought me
To that moment where words run dry
To that moment where speech disappears into silence
Silence
I have come here
Hardly knowing the reason why
In my mind I've already imagined
Our bodies entwining, defenseless and silent
And now I am here with you
No second thoughts
I've decided
Decided...
Past the point of no return
No going back now
Our passion play has now at last begun
Past all thought of right and wrong
One final question
How long should we two wait before we're one?
When will the blood begin to raise?
The sleeping blood burst into bloom?
When will the flames at last consume us?
Together:
Past the point of no return
The final threshold
The bridge is crossed, so stand and watch it burn
We've passed the point of no return...

Imagine
(John Lennon)
Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...
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 be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...
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

this is "hero/heroine" from boys like girls (btw, it's a good band, but i didn't know how ppl would react to the band name, so...yeah. sorry if i offend anyone...)one of THE best songs ever, though :)
HERO/HEROINE
It's too late baby, there's no turning around
I've got my hands in my pocket and my head in a cloud
This is how I do
When I think about you
I never thought that you could break me apart
I keep a sinister smile and a hold of my heart
You want to get inside
Then you can get in line
But not this time
Cause you caught me off guard
Now I'm running and screaming
I feel like a hero and you are my heroine
I won't try to philosophize
I'll just take a deep breath and I'll look in your eyes
This is how I feel
And it's so surreal
I got a closet filled up to the brim
With the ghosts of my past and the skeletons
And I don't know why
You'd even try
But I won't lie
You caught me off guard
Now I'm running and screaming
<a href="http://www.lyricsmania.com">Lyrics</a>
I feel like a hero and you are my heroine
Do you know that your love is the sweetest sin?
And I feel a weakness coming on
Never felt so good to be so wrong
Had my heart on lockdown
And then you turned me around
I'm feeling like a new born child
Every time I get a chance to see you smile
It's not complicated
I was so jaded
And you caught me off guard
Now I'm running and screaming
I feel like a hero and you are my heroine
Do you know that your love is the sweetest sin?
(I feel like a hero and you are my heroine)
And I feel a weakness coming on
Never felt so good to be so wrong
Had my heart on lockdown
And then you turned me around
(Do you know that your love is the sweetest sin?)
I'm feeling like a new born child
Every time I get a chance to see you smile
It's not complicated
I was so jaded
(I feel like a hero and you are my heroine)
And I feel a weakness coming on
Never felt so good to be so wrong
Had my heart on lockdown
And then you turned me around
(Do you know that your love is the sweetest sin?)
I'm feeling like a new born child
Every time I get a chance to see you smile
It's not complicated
I was so jaded

I like this song by Heart, What About Love. It's a little ironic coming from me but I like it anyway hehehe
Ive been lonely
Ive been waiting for you
Im pretending and thats all I can do
The love Im sending
Aint making it through to your heart
Youve been hiding, never letting it show
Always trying to keep it under control
You got it down and youre well
On the way to the top
But theres something that you forgot
What about love
Dont you want someone to care about you
What about love
Dont let it slip away
What about love
I only want to share it with you
You might need it someday
I cant tell you what youre feeling inside
I cant sell you what you dont want to buy
Somethings missing and you got to
Look back on your life
You know something here just aint right
What about love
Dont you want someone to care about you
What about love
Dont let it slip away
What about love
I only want to share it with you
What about love
Dont you want someone to care about you
What about love
Dont let it slip away
What about love
I only want to share it with you

Mine are short and sweet:
Chorus of 'I just wanna live' by Good Charlotte:
I just wanna live,
Don't care about the things that they say,
Don't care about what happens to me,
I just wanna live!
And the chorus of 'This suffering' by Billy Talent
End this lie,
I can't pretend this time,
I need a friend to find my broken mind before it falls to pieces,
Everytime,
You try to leave me blind,
You'll never close my eyes,
You'll never close my eyes and watch me die.

Far Away Nickelback
This time, This place
Misused, Mistakes
Too long, Too late
Who was I to make you wait
Just one chance
Just one breath
Just in case there's just one left
'Cause you know,
you know, you know
[CHORUS]
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me
and you'll never go
Stop breathing if
I don't see you anymore
On my knees, I'll ask
Last chance for one last dance
'Cause with you, I'd withstand
All of hell to hold your hand
I'd give it all
I'd give for us
Give anything but I won't give up
'Cause you know,
you know, you know
[CHORUS]
So far away
Been far away for far too long
So far away
Been far away for far too long
But you know, you know, you know
I wanted
I wanted you to stay
'Cause I needed
I need to hear you say
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I forgive you
For being away for far too long
So keep breathing
'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
Hold on to me and, never let me go

I love this song. Better Be Home Soon from the album Temple of Low Men by Crowded House
Somewhere deep inside
Somethings got a hold on you
And its pushing me aside
See it stretch on forever
I know Im right
For the first time in my life
Thats why I tell you
Youd better be home soon
Stripping back the coats
Of lies and deception
Back to nothingness
Like a week in the desert
I know Im right
For the first time in my life
Thats why I tell you
Youd better be home soon
So dont say no, dont say nothings wrong
Cos when you get back home maybe Ill be gone
It would cause me pain
If we were to end it
But I could start again
You can depend on it
I know Im right
For the first time in my life
Thats why I tell you
Youd better be home soon
Thats why I tell you
Youd better be home soon

I love One-X by Three Days Grace. It kinda made me realize I wasn't alone when I was struggling with my sexuality. I was laying in bed listening to music and this song came on and I had this burst of confidence that there ARE people that will understand me no matter what and that it was just a matter of finding them and realizing it was them.
ONE-X
Do you think about
Everything you've been through
You never thought you'd be so depressed
Are you wondering
Is it life or death
Do you think that there's no one like you
We are
We are
We are
We are the ones
We get knocked down
We get back up and stand above the crowd
We are one
We are the ones
We get knocked down
We get back up and stand above the crowd
We are one
The life I think about
Is so much better than this
I never thought I'd be stuck in this mess
I'm sick of wondering
Is it life or death
I need to figure out who's behind you
We are
We are
We are
We are the ones
We get knocked down
We get back up and stand above the crowd
We are one
We are the ones
We get knocked down
We get back up and stand above the crowd
We are one
The life I think about
Is so much better than this
I never thought I'd be stuck in this mess
I'm sick of wondering
Is it life or death?
We are the ones
We get knocked down
We get back up and stand above the crowd
We are one
We are the ones
We get knocked down
We get back up and stand above the crowd
We are one
We stand above the crowd
We stand above the crowd
We stand above the crowd (Crowd)
(We stand) We stand above the crowd
We stand above the crowd (We Stand)
We stand above the crowd
(We are the ones) We stand above the crowd
(We get knocked down get back up) We stand above the crowd
(We are the ones) We stand above the crowd
(We get knocked down get back up) We stand above the crowd
We stand above the crowd
We stand above the crowd
We stand above the crowd

Neither Heaven nor Space by Nada Surf:
So quiet
It's neither heaven nor space, it's just high
And the ring around the moon
looks like light and love
Neither of which I get enough of
Down there
Where alot of people lie, in a deep sleep
And months on end go by, in a single week
Down there
But much too slow
Can't you see I'm trying so hard to plug up this hole
The air is running out we're sinking much too low
And if you sit long enough
you can hear ghost trains
As if the city speed
is just in our brains
And coke's as close as we get to sugar cane
Down there
But much too slow
Can't you see I'm trying so hard to plug up this hole,
The air is running out we're sinking much too low
So quiet, So quiet
It's neither heaven nor space, it's just high
And the ring around the moon
Looks like light and love
Neither of which I get enough of
Neither of which I get enough of
If you have the software, please download this song. The lyrics are absolutely perfect for the music that they play. It's so simple, yet so beautiful.

Sweet Dues and Sweet Ladies ~ Defiance, Ohio
tomorrow might be the day I die
so I want, or rather must, confide
all these things I did, or did not,
try to hide.
well, if boys are boys and
girls are girls.
then boys and girls
are sometimes confused
and I am confused most all the time.
well let's get one thing right
our friends are good
and their support is great
but the outcome is everything
and that's left to me and you
so if today is that day I dread
then at least it can be said
that we, we did things right.
we wrestled with our sense of pride
and even if it didn't sound like a battle cry.
still we, we did things right.
we hung up our relationships
for everyone to see
then blind interpretations
couldn't say what's right for you or me
and we could find out what we want
and make no apologies
because we couldn't coexist
any other way.
This song is about expressing yourself, and being comfortable about your sexuality, with everybody... I feel scared often to be myself. Really it is about being open, and that is what I want.

i absolutely LOVE this song :p
too lost in you - sugababes
You look into my eyes
I go out of my mind
I can't see anything
'cause this love's got me blind
I can't help myself
I can't break the spell
I can't even try
I'm in over my head
You got under skin
I got no strength at all
In the state that I'm in
And my knees are weak
And my mouth can't speak
Fell too far this time
Chorus:
Baby, I'm too lost in you
Caught in you
Lost in everything about you
So deep, I can't sleep
I can't think
I just think about the things that you do (you do)
I'm too lost in you
(Too lost in you)
ooh
Well you whispered to me
And I shiver inside
You undo me and move me
In ways undefined
And you're all I see
And you're all I need
Help me baby (help me baby)
Help me baby (help me now)
'cause I'm slipping away
Like the sand to the tide
Falling into your arms
Falling into your eyes
If you get too near
I might disappear
I might lose my mind
Chorus:
Baby, I'm too lost in you
Caught in you
Lost in everything about you
So deep, I can't sleep
I can't think
I just think about the things that you do (you do)
I'm too lost in you
(Too lost in you)
I'm going in crazy in love for you baby
(I can't eat and I can't sleep)
I'm going down like a stone in the sea
Yeah, no one can mess with me
(No one can mess with me)
Oooh, my baby
Oooh, baby, baby
Chorus:
Baby, I'm too lost in you
Caught in you
Lost in everything about you
So deep, I can't sleep
I can't think
I just think about the things that you do (you do)
I'm too lost in you
I'm lost in you
I'm lost in you
I'm lost in everything about you
So deep (so deep), I can't sleep
I can't think
I just think about the things that you do (you do)
I'm too lost in you
(Too lost in you)

Here in your arms by hellogoodbye:
I like,
Where we are,
When we drive,
In your car.
I like,
Where we are,
Here.
Cause our lips,
Can touch.
And our cheeks,
Can brush.
Our lips can touch,
Here.
Well you are the one, the one,
That lies close to me.
Whispers, "Hello,
I miss you quite terribly."
I fell in love, in love,
With you suddenly.
Now there's no place else,
I could be, but,
Here in your arms.
I like,
Where you sleep,
When you sleep,
Next to me.
I like,
Where you sleep,
Here.
Our lips,
Can touch.
And our cheeks,
Can brush.
Cause our lips can touch,
Here.
Well you are the one, the one,
That lies close to me.
Whispers, "Hello,
I miss you quite terribly."
I fell in love, in love,
With you suddenly.
Now there's no place else,
I could be, but,
Here in your arms.
Our lips can touch.
Our lips can touch,
Here.
You are the one, the one,
That lies close to me.
Whispers, "Hello,
I miss you quite terribly."
I fell in love, in love,
With you suddenly.
Now there's no place else,
I could be, but,
Here in your...
You are the one, the one,
That lies close to me.
Whispers, "Hello,
I miss you quite, miss you quite..."
I fell in love, in love,
With you suddenly.
Now theres no place else,
I could be, but,
Here in your arms.
Here in your arms.
Oh, here in your... arms.
concrete angel by martina mcbride:
She walks to school with a lunch she packed
Nobody knows what she's holding back;
Wearing the same dress she wore yesterday,
She hides the bruises with the linen and lace;
oh
The teacher wonders but she doesn't ask,
It's hard to see the pain behind the mask;
Bearing the burdon of a secret storm,
Sometimes she wishes she was never born;
Through the wind and the rain,
She stands hard as a stone in a world that she can't rise above;
But her dreams give her wings and she flies to a place where she's loved.
Concrete Angel
Somebody cries in the middle of the night,
The neighbors hear but they turn out the lights;
A fragile soul caught in the hands of fate,
When morning comes it will be too late.
Through the wind and the rain,
She stands hard as a stone in a world that she can't rise above;
But her dreams give her wings and she flies to a place where she's loved.
Concrete Angel
A statue stands in a shaded place,
An angel girl with an upturned face;
Her name is written on a polished rock,
A broken heart that the world forgot.
Through the wind and the rain,
She stands hard as a stone in a world that she can't rise above;
But her dreams give her wings and she flies to a place where she's loved.

umbrella by rhianna w/ jay-Z:
No clouds in my storms
Let it rain, I hydroplane in the bank
Coming down with the Dow Jones
When the clouds come we gone, we Rocafella
She fly higher than weather
And G5’s are better, You know me,
an anticipation, for precipitation. Stacked chips for the rainy day
Jay, Rain Man is back with little Ms. Sunshine
Rihanna where you at?
[Rihanna]
You have my heart
And we'll never be worlds apart
May be in magazines
But you'll still be my star
Baby cause in the dark
You can't see shiny cars
And that's when you need me there
With you I'll always share
Because
[Chorus]
When the sun shines, we’ll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath I'ma stick it out till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)
These fancy things, will never come in between
You're part of my entity, here for Infinity
When the war has took it's part
When the world has dealt it's cards
If the hand is hard, together we'll mend your heart
[ Umbrella lyrics found on http://www.completealbumlyrics.com ]
Because
[Chorus]
When the sun shines, we’ll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath I'ma stick it out till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)
You can run into my arms
It's okay don't be alarmed
Come into me
There's no distance in between our love
So go on and let the rain pour
I'll be all you need and more
Because
[Chorus]
When the sun shines, we’ll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath I'ma stick it out till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)
It's raining
Ooh baby it's raining
Baby come into me
Come into me
It's raining
Oh baby it's raining

My newest favorite song, Dal by Skinny Puppy
That is an amazing song.
"Why" - Annie Lennox
How many times do I have to try to tell you
That I'm sorry for the things I've done
But when I start to try to tell you
That's when you have to tell me
Hey... this kind of trouble's only just begun
I tell myself too many times
Why don't you ever learn to keep your big mouth shut
That's why it hurts so bad to hear the words
That keep on falling from your mouth
Falling from your mouth
Falling from your mouth
Tell me...
Why
Why
I may be mad
I may be blind
I may be viciously unkind
But I can still read what you're thinking
And I've heard is said too many times
That you'd be better off
Besides...
Why can't you see this boat is sinking
(this boat is sinking this boat is sinking)
Let's go down to the water's edge
And we can cast away those doubts
Some things are better left unsaid
But they still turn me inside out
Turning inside out turning inside out
Tell me...
Why
Tell me...
Why
This is the book I never read
These are the words I never said
This is the path I'll never tread
These are the dreams I'll dream instead
This is the joy that's seldom spread
These are the tears...
The tears we shed
This is the fear
This is the dread
These are the contents of my head
And these are the years that we have spent
And this is what they represent
And this is how I feel
Do you know how I feel ?
'cause i don't think you know how I feel
I don't think you know what I feel
I don't think you know what I feel
You don't know what I feel
This song is so reminiscent of when I dated a boy... actually for the most part, it fits perfectly.

Lily Allen Smile Lyrics
When you first left me
I was wanting more
But you were f**king that girl next door
What'cha do that for?
(What'cha do that for?)
When you first left me I didn't know what to say
Never been on my own that way
Just sat by myself all day
I was so lost back then
But with a little help from my friends,
I found the light in the tunnel at the end
And now you're calling me up on the phone
So you can have a little whine and a moan
It's only because you're feeling alone
At first when I see you cry
Yeah, it makes me smile
Yeah, it makes me smile
At worst I feel bad for a while
But then I just smile
I go ahead and smile
Whenever you see me
You say that you want me back
And I tell you it don't mean jack (it don't mean jack)
No it don't mean jack (no it don't mean jack)
I couldn't stop laughing
No I just couldn't help myself
I See you messed up my mental health
I was quite unwell
I was so lost back then
But with a little help from my friends,
I found the light in the tunnel at the end
And now you're calling me up on the phone
So you can have a little whine and a moan
It's only because you're feeling alone
At first when I see you cry
Yeah, it makes me smile
Yeah, it makes me smile
At worst I feel bad for a while
But then I just smile
I go ahead and smile
Lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala etc.
At first when I see you cry
Yeah, it makes me smile
Yeah, it makes me smile
At worst I feel bad for a while
But then I just smile
I go ahead and smile
At first when I see you cry
Yeah, it makes me smile
Yeah, it makes me smile
At worst I feel bad for a while
But then I just smile
I go ahead and smile

Pagan Poetry
Pedalling through
the dark currents
I find an accurate copy
a blueprint
of the pleasure in me
Swirling black lilies totally ripe
A secret code carved : a secret code carved
Swirling black lilies totally ripe
He offers a handshake
crooked
five fingers
they form a pattern
yet to be matched
Swirling black lilies totally ripe
On the surface simplicity
but the darkest pit in me
is pagan poetry
pagan poetry
Swirling black lilies totally ripe
Morse : coded : signals
they pulsate : they wake me up
from my
hibernate
On the surface simplicity
but the darkest pit in me
is pagan poetry
pagan poetry
I love him
This time : I'm gonna keep me to myself
This time : I'm gonna keep my all to myself
She loves him
But he makes me want to hand myself over
She loves him.......
It just reminds me of the summer of 06', which was a really great time for me

"Y nadien se que vamos hacer...sh callao." --Cinco Letras, Alexis y Fido. It was the first song I danced to in Colombia.
"That will be the return to yourself, the return to innocence." Return to Innocence by Enigma, is the first song I danced to when I became a contemporary dancer. Crockett's Theme is also important to me for similar reasons.
"Watch me fly-y." From Mama I'm A Big Girl Now, part of the Hairspray soundtrack. I like the song. It's a cool song.
"Won't go all the way but we'll go pretty far." From I Can Hear the Bells, part of the Hairspray soundtrack. It's so inspiring!
"They say it takes two to tango, but tango's child's play. So take me to the dance floor and we'll twist the night away!" From It Takes Two, part of the Hairspray soundtrack. There is a theme here. The song makes me look forward to having my next girlfriend.
"I wanna dance the night away." Alive by Da Buzz is a song that's so easy for me to dance to.
Now for the more serious songs...
"I'll do everything just to find you." Evanescence's "Taking over me." I listened to this a lot in my sophomore year. I was having a rough time because I was having a fill-in-the-blank with my English teacher and also admitted to myself I liked girls.
"I knew you loved me then." Evanescence's "Holding my last breath." Same reason as above. I was very fixated on my English teacher.
"Soon I know I'll wake from this dream." Evanescence's "Hello." Same reason as above. I wanted to deny anything was happening.
"Drowning in you...falling forever..." Evanescence's "Going Under." I think on some level I knew that what was going on was wrong.
"She's Madonna" by Robbie Williams. I got memories when my English teacher reappeared in my life, and I listened to this song for some reason at first.
"Angels," "Our Sacred Hour," and mostly "Memories" by Within Temptation. I was angry and surprised and sad that the teacher reappeared.
"Behind these hazel eyes," Kelly Clarkson. That, overall, is how I felt when he left.
"Cut" by Plumb. That's how I feel now about the whole thing. I've actually finally let everything go. I can get a girlfriend now with a clean conscience, and "our" song will be the following:
"Creepin' Up on You" by Darren Hayes. Just kidding. I love the song though.
"I knew I loved you" by Savage Garden. Darren was the lead singer. It's that...when I do find this woman, I'll have been waiting for a year, maybe two, and I'll be so happy.
"Truly Madly Deeply" by Savage Garden (I strongly dislike the Cascada-covered version, but I like Cascada). Anyway. It's something I would definitely want to sing (or something) to someone I really cared about.
"I'm bored by the overdone drama of it all," Wayne "Slow Down." This song is impossible to find anywhere, even YouTube. It's on the Swimfan soundtrack (my favorite movie). I listen to it when I feel melancholy.
"Y yo no se si volvera-a-a." Belinda's "Luz sin gravedad," heard it in Colombia and loved it. I was so nervous about going to school...then I heard the song and was all, "Awesome."

no good advice ~ girls aloud
Daddy told me look into the future
Sit at your computer, be a good girl
And Mama said remember your a lady,
Think before your play and straighten your curls,
Well everybodys talking like i'm crazy
Dangerous and lazy girl with no soul
But i've seen it all from where i'm hiding
Baby cause i'm sliding, out of control
[Bridge:]
Here I go, off the road crank the stereo
I flick my finger to the world below
Here I am, dirty hands, i don't give a damn
Shut your mouth because it might show
[Chorus:]
I don't need no good advice
I'm already wasted
I don't need some other life
Cold and complicated
I don't need no Sunday trips
Tea and sympathising
I don't need no special fix
To anaesthetise me
Daddy always told me to remember,
Leave the boys, till later, don't you drop down
Mama said I'd never get to heaven
Hanging till eleven, with the wrong crowd
Everybody's talking like I'm only
Just another phony girl who got played
But i dig the music that i'm making
Baby, and i'll break it into your brain
[Spoken]
I don't need no good advice
No well intentioned sacrifice
I don't need no Sunday trips
No chocolate box or speed for kicks
Hell I don't need no beauty sleep
No need to count those dirty sheep
And I don't need no bedtime prayer
Cos frankly I don't even care

Life, it's ever so strange
It's so full of change
Think that you've worked it out
then BANG
Right out of the blue
Something happens to you
To throw you off course
and then you
Breakdown
Yeah you breakdown
Well don't you breakdown
Listen to me
Because
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
no need to run, no need to hide
It'll take you round and round
Sometimes you're up
sometimes you're down
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
don't be scared
don't hide your eyes
It may feel so real inside
but don't forget it's just a ride
Truth, we don't wanna hear
It's too much to take
Don't like to feel out of control
So we make our plans
Ten times a day
And when they don't go
our way we
Breakdown
Yeah we breakdown
Well don't you breakdown
Listen to me
Because
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
no need to run, no need to hide
It'll take you round and round
Sometimes you're up
sometimes you're down
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
don't be scared
don't hide your eyes
It may feel so real inside
but don't forget it's just a ride
Slowly, oh so very slowly
except that
there's no getting off
So live it, just gotta go with it
coz this ride's, never gonna stop
Breakdown
Don't you breakdown
No need to breakdown
No need at all
Because
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
no need to run, no need to hide
It'll take you all around
Sometimes you're up
sometimes you're down
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
don't be scared now

It may feel so real inside

Juanes- Es Por Ti, this song means alot to me because it tells you about that someone you love and you wake up ever morning to them and you live for them and so on and so on
Cada vez que me levanto y veo que a mi lado estás
me siento renovado
y me siento aniquilado
aniquilado si no estás
Tu controlas toda mi verdad y todo lo que está de más
Tus ojos me llevan lentamente al sol
Y tu boca me habla del amor y el corazón
Tu piel tiene el color de un rojo atardecer
Y es por ti...
Que late mi corazón
Y es por ti...
Que brillan mis ojos hoy
Y es por ti...
Que he vuelto a hablar de amor
Y es por ti...
Que calma mi dolor
Y cada vez que yo te busco
Y no te puedo aún hallar
Me siento un vagabundo
Perdido por el mundo
Desordenado si no estás
Como mueves tú mi felicidad
Y todo lo que está de más
Es Por Ti Lyrics on http://www.lyricsmania.com
Tus ojos me llevan lentamente al sol
Y tu boca me habla del amor y el corazón

Nelly Furtado- Do It, you guys know you all do this, you hesitate with a person you really like, you stumble, stutter, and blush up like you just came out of a hot shower.
You're standing at the door
I'm falling to the floor
You look even better than you did before
I'm staring at my feet
Wondering if I can do this
It's been a while but I couldn't forget you
Just a little look has got me feeling things
Just a little taste has got me seeing things
Just a little touch has got me off the chains
Doing things that I don't want to
Do it like you do it to me (I'm burning up)
Do it like you do it to me (it's not enough)
Do it like you do it to me just open up
Don't you know how much I want you
We're sitting real close and I can feel your breath
I wanna touch your hand but I lay back
Cuz you know this thing could sprial in the night
I've changed my mind I'm ready for you this time
We're sitting real close I can feel your breath
I wanna touch your hand but I lay back
We're sitting real close I can feel your breath
I wanna touch your hand I cannot fight it off

How about Bobby Malone Moves Home, by Casiotone for the Painfully Alone? I find this artist really catches how it feels to be in that whole young-adult stage of life. That sort of "shit, I'm grown up. Now what?" feeling. This really loses a lot of the feeling without the music and the singer's absolutely incredible voice, but nonetheless"
Hey Bobby Malone it's good to have you home
so you tried your own route & it didn't work out
well you're not alone
a job that made you crazy in a town you won't miss
& the drunks you called friends were a means to an end
& this is the end
hey Bobby Malone how you have grown
a couple months on the couch while you figure things out
won't do you wrong
hey Bobby Malone
couldn't make rent again or are you in trouble deep
you're a stray dog with fleas & your sister agrees
you've looked better son
hey Bobby Malone it's good to have you home
a couple months on the couch while you figure things out
won't do you wrong
hey Bobby Malone

I honestly think this song needs no explanation behind it because it's pretty straight-forward.
Maybe by Kelly Clarkson
I'm strong
But I break
I'm stubborn
And I make plenty of mistakes
Yeah I'm hard
And life with me is never easy
To figure out, to love
I'm jaded but oh so lovely
All you have to do is hold me
And you'll know and you'll see just how sweet it can be
If you'll trust me, love me, let me
Maybe, maybe
Someday
When we're at the same place
When we're on the same road
When it's okay to hold my hand
Without feeling lost
Without all the excuses
When it's just because you love me, you let me, you need me
Then maybe, maybe
All you have to do is hold me
And you'll know and you'll see just how sweet it can be
If you'll trust me, love me, let me
Maybe, maybe
I'm confusing as hell
I'm north and south
And I'll probably never have it all figured out
But what I know is I wasn't meant to walk this world without you
And I promise I'll try
Yeah I'm gonna try to give you every little part of me
Every single detail you missed with your eyes
Then maybe
Maybe, yeah maybe
One day
We'll meet again and you'll need me, you'll see me completely
Every little bit
Oh yeah maybe you'll love me, you'll love me then
I don't want to be tough
And I don't want to be proud
I don't need to be fixed and I certainly don't need to be found
I'm not lost
I need to be loved
I just need to be loved
I just want to be loved by you and I won't stop 'cause I believe
That maybe, yeah maybe
Maybe, yeah maybe
I should know better than to touch the fire twice
But I'm thinking maybe, yeah maybe you might
Maybe, love maybe

Darren Hayes wrote this song to his father (I think), there is both pain and the beauty in these lyrics, and touches me because everyone gay or str8 just wants to be love!
"I Just Want You to Love Me"
Darren Hayes
I don't want someone telling me what to do
I don't wanna find out my temper grew wings
And flew to you
Don't want somebody telling me what's not right
But I just want you to love me
Oh I just want you to love me
I don't wanna have to lie bout what's inside
When there's always been a tiny part of me
I'm trying to hide
I don't wanna see your expression when I let you down
And I just want you to love me
Oh I just want you to love me
There's a haiku poem inside of my head
But the words are written in invisible ink
Now the world is changing
I can barely keep up
What was hot is over
What was down is not
Now Adam and Eve are trying to split up
And I can't take anymore
'Cause I just want you to love me
Oh I just want you to love me
Love me
Oh I just want you to love me.......

It doesn't mean anything to me, it just makes me sad. It sure as hell means a lot to the singer, and that's why it makes me sad.

Ever since I was young
your word is the word that always won
Worry and wake the ones you love
A phone call I’d rather not receive
Please use my body while I sleep
My lungs are fresh and yours to keep,
kept clean and they will let you breathe
Is this the way a toy feels when its batteries run dry?
I am the watch you always wear, but you forget to wind
Nobody plans to be half a world away at times like these,
so I sat alone and waited out the night
The best part of what has happened was the part I must have missed
So I’m asking you to shine it on and stick around,
I’m not writing my goodbyes
I submit no excuse
If this is what I have to do
I owe you every day I wake
If I could I would shrink myself
and sink through your skin to your blood cells
Remove whatever makes you hurt, but I am too weak to be your cure
Is this the way a toy feels when its batteries run dry?
I am the watch you always wear, but you forget to wind
Nobody plans to be half a world away at times like these,
so I sat alone and waited out the night
The best part of what has happened was the part I must have missed
So I’m asking you to shine it up and stick around
I’m not writing my goodbyes!
I’m not letting you check out
You will beat this starting now and you will always be around
I’m there to monitor your breathing
I will watch you while you’re sleeping
I will keep you safe and sound
Does anybody remember back when you were very young?
Did you ever think that you would be this blessed?
Nobody plans to be half a world away at times like these,
so I sat alone and waited out the night
The best part of what has happened was the part I must have missed
So I’m asking you to shine it on and stick around
I’m not writing my goodbyes

*revives awesome thread*
lyrics from RENT
Look, I Find Some Of What You Teach
Suspect
Because I'm Used To Relying On Intellect
But I Try To Open Up To What I Don't Know
Because Reason Says I Should Have Died
Three Years Ago
There's only us
There's only this
Forget regret
Or life is yours to miss
No Other Road
No Other Way
No Day But Today

The Song of Purple Summer
Spring Awakening
The Company
Listen to what's in the heart of a child
A song so big in one so small
Soon you will hear where beauty lies
You'll hear and you'll recall
The saddness, the doubt all the loss, the grief
Will belong to some play from the past
As the child leads the way to a dream a relief
A time of hope through the land
A summer's day
A mother sings
A song of purple summer
Through the heart of everything
And heaven waits
So close it seems
To show her child the wonders
Of a world beyond her dreams
The earth will wave with corn
The days so wide so warm
And mares will neigh
With stallions that they mate
Foals they've boarne
And all shall know the wonder of purple summer
And so I wait
The swallow brings
The song of what's to follow
The glory of the spring
The fences sway
The porches swing
The clouds begin to thunder
Crickets wander murming
The earth will wave with corn
The days so wide so warm
And mares will neigh
With stallions that they mate
Foals they've boarne
And all shall know the wonder
I will sing the song of purple summer
All shall know the wonder
I will sing the song of purple summer
All shall know the wonder
of Purple Summer

Soo many lyrics i have heard that mean something to me.
This last bit of The Undertaker's Thirst For Revenge Is Unquenchable (The Final Battle) by Chiodos:
Empty... is the sky before the sun wakes up
Empty... is the eyes of animals in cages
Empty... the faces of women in mourning
When everything has been taken from them
Me? Don't ask me about empty
More or less, its how i felt when a couple people i was very close to passed away. So i really latched onto those lyrics.
Our Lady of Sorrows by My Chemical Romance
Stand up fucking tall
Don't let them see your back
And take my fucking hand
And never be afraid again
The full lyrics of the song are painted on the back of my bedroom door, they mean a lot to me. This song was one of the ones that kept me going through high school. I had a really rough time, harder than most in my school at least.
This is another song that helped me in high school, i was suicidal, and nearly did it a few times, this song helped me not do it. Trouble Breathing by Alkaline Trio
You told me that you want to die.
I said I've been there myself more than a few times.
And I go back every once in a while.
You called me lucky, you... you called me lucky.
You said tonight is a wonderful night to die.
I asked you how you could tell,
You told me to look at the sky.
Look at all those stars,
Look at how goddamn ugly the stars are.
It's one or another.
Between a rope and a bottle.
I can tell you're having trouble breathing,
Cause you'll never be o.k.,
You'll never be o.k. (you'll always be in pain).
You'll always feel this way.
Cause things they never work out right
(The wrong way, the lonely way).
You'll always be in pain.
You told me that the daylight burned you
And that the sunrise was enough to kill you.
I said maybe you're a vampire.
You said it's quite possible, I feel truly dead inside.
It's one or another.
Between a rope and a bottle.
I can tell you're having trouble breathing,
Cause you'll never be o.k.,
You'll never be o.k. (you'll always be in pain).
You'll always feel this way.
Cause things they never work out right
(The wrong way, the lonely way).
You'll always be in pain.
Don't forget to let your life rot you inside out.
Don't forget to let your life rot you inside out.
Don't forget to let your life rot you inside out.
And finally, every single song on Sounding The Seventh Trumpet by Avenged Sevenfold. That album got me through my first semestre of college in one piece.
so yes thats most of the big important ones.

Right this moment, all thats going through my head is 'Who's that girl?' by Robyn, i think the lyrics really sum up how i feel most of the time, so here they are:
http://www.mp3lyrics.org/alv
Good girls are pretty like all the time
I'm just pretty some of the time
(yeah)
Good girls are happy and satisfied
I won't stop asking until i die
(noooOOo)
I just can't deal with the rules
I can't take the pressure
It's got me saying Ooo yeah
[ Chorus ]
Who's that girl? That you dream of
Who's that girl? That you think you love
Who's that girl? Well i'm nothing like her
I know there's no such girl
I swear I can't take the pressure
Who's that girl?
Good girls don't say no or ask you why
I won't let you love me, until
you really try (oh no)
Good girls are sexy like every day
I'm only sexy when i say it's ok
[ Find more Lyrics at www.mp3lyrics.org/alv ]
I just can't deal with the rules
I can't take the pressure
It's got me saying Ooo yeah
[ Chorus ]
Who's that girl? That you dream of
Who's that girl? That you think you love
Who's that girl? What if I'm not like her
I know there's no such girl
I swear i can't take the pressure
Who's that girl?
Let's play a game that you never tried
You be the girl and I'll be the guy
Let's pretend everything has changed
and then would you love me any different
I just can't deal with the rules
I can't take the pressure (oh no)
Who's that girl?
[ Chorus x2 ]
Who's that girl? That you dream of
Who's that girl? That you think you love
Who's that girl? What if I'm nothing like her
I know there's no such girl
I swear I can't take the pressure
Who's that girl?
Who's that girl?

This song has a ton of meaning for me. It describes how I feel about Deion, how much I missed him when I left hawaii and how much I miss him still. This song can easily make me cry, but I still love it
Untouched- The Veronicas
I go ooh ooh, you go ah ah
lalalalalalalala
lalalalalalalala
I wanna wanna wanna get get get what I want
Don't stop
Give me give me give me what you got got
Cause I can't wait wait wait any more more more more
Don't even talk about the consequence
Cause right now you're the only thing that's making any sense to me
And I don't give a damn what they say, what they think think
Cause you're the only one who's on my mind
I'll never ever let you leave me
I'll try to stop time for ever, never wanna hear you say goodbye (bye bye bye)
I feel so untouched
And I want you so much
That I just can't resist you
It's not enough to say that I miss you
I feel so untouched right now
Need you so much somehow
I can't forget you
I've gone crazy from the moment I met you
Untouched
And I need you so much
See you, breathe you, I want to be you
Alalalala alalalala
You can take take take take take time time
To live live the way you gotta gotta live your life
Give me give me give me all of you you
Don't be scared
I'll see you through the loneliness of one more more more
Don't even think about what's right or wrong, wrong or right
'Cause in the end it's only you and me and no one else is gonna be around
To answer all the questions left behind
And you and I are meant to be so even if the world falls down today
You've still got me to hold you up up
And I will never let you down (down)
I feel so untouched
And I want you so much
That I just can't resist you
It's not enough to say that I miss you
I feel so untouched right now
Need you so much somehow
I can't forget you
I've gone crazy from the moment I met you
Untouched, untouched, untouched, untouched, untouched
Alalalala alalalala
Untouched
Alalalala alalalala
I feel so untouched
And I want you so much
That I just can't resist you
It's not enough to say that I miss you
I feel so untouched right now
Need you so much somehow
I can't forget you
I've gone crazy from the moment I met you
I feel so untouched
And I want you so much
That I just can't resist you
It's not enough to say that I miss you
I feel so untouched right now
Need you so much somehow
I can't forget you
I've gone crazy from the moment I met you
Untouched, untouched, untouched

Think I'm going for a walk now
I feel a little unsteady
Don't want no one to follow me
Except maybe you
I could make you happy you know
If you weren't already
I could do a lot of things
And I do
Tell you the truth I prefer the worst of you
Too bad you had to have a better half
She's not really my type but I think you two are forever
And I hate to say it
You're perfect together
So fuck you and your untouchable face
And fuck you for existing in the first place
And who am I, that I should be vying for your touch?
And who am I, I bet you can't even tell me that much
Two-thirty in the morning and my gas tank will be empty soon
Neon sign on the horizon, rubbing elbows with the moon
A safe haven of sleeplessness where the deep fryer's always on
The radio is counting down the top 20 country songs
And out on the porch the fly strip is waving like a flag in the wind
You know I don't look forward to seeing you again
You'd look like a photograph of yourself taken from far far away
I won't know what to do, I won't know what to say
Except fuck you and your untouchable face
And fuck you for existing in the first place
And who am I, that I should be vying for your touch?
And who am I, I bet you can't even tell me that much
I see you and I'm so perplexed
What was I thinking? What will I think of next? Where can I hide?
In the back room there's a lamp that hangs over the pool table
And when the fan is on it swings gently side to side
There's a changing constellation of balls as we are playing
I see Orion and say nothing
The only thing I can think of saying
Is fuck you and your untouchable face
And fuck you for existing in the first place
And who am I, that I should be vying for your touch?
And who am I, I bet you can't even tell me that much
This girl messed me around for so long. If she'd just have said that nothing was going to happen between us, I cold have moved on, but she kept me in this web of false promises for easily two or three years, sometimes telling me she was in love with me but the timing wasn't right, sometimes saying she couldn't be with me because she didn't want someone like her to be my first love, sometimes saying she didn't want to be with me at all. All the while sleeping around, being in an online relationship with a girl in Nigeria she claimed to be her "soulmate", and dating guys she didn't like at the same time (despite the fact that she said she couldn't betray Bronwyn to be with me - somehow it seemed that dating the guys was fine though).

This song show exactly how I felt about the guy I was going out with before I figured out I am gay except for maybe the line:And you'll turn me on because guys don't' do that for me lol
Sandi Thom- What id I'm right
You'll take me on a journey
And be there till the end
It won't be an uphill struggle
On you I can depend
You promised me a dream home
With roses round the door
You'll cover me in diamonds
There's nothing I want more
And
You'll be strong
And you'll turn me on
But I've got my doubts and what if I'm right?
You'll be true and be faithful too
But I've got my doubts and what if I'm right?
What if I'm right?
'cos if the rain starts falling
You'll protect me with your coat
And you'll always tape the football
And let me watch my soap
You'll always be as handsome
And your weight will never gain
And when I give birth to our children
I will feel no pain
And
You'll bring me flowers
And you'll bring the showers
But I've got my doubts and what if I'm right?
You'll say I'm thin and bring the washing in
But I've got my doubts and what if I'm right?
What if I'm right?
You'll always keep the magic
The tender love and care
And when you need to change the light bulb
You wont hand me the chair
And when we're tired of the city
And we find a country home
You'll sell your vinyl records
And go get us a loan
You'll be my sympathetic lover
And won't steal the covers
But I've got my doubts and what if I'm right?
You won't forsake me
Your mother won't hate me
But I've got my doubts and what if I'm right?
You'll be strong
And you'll turn me on
But I've got my doubts and what if I'm right?
You'll be true
And be faithful too
But I've got my doubts and what if I'm right?
What if I'm right?

Just realised I'd forgotten to mention what exactly the song I last psoted was. "Untouchable Face", by Ani DiFranco.
This song's been my favourite since I first heard it a couple of years back. It overuses the word 'beautiful' like you wouldn't believe, but I just love it. It's called "Beautiful" (surprise!) by Sergey Lazarev.
I could drown in you, I would fall right through
You could crash me down, take me underground
Smething you don't see, something you don't know
I want to spin you around and tell you that you're beautiful
You're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful
You're beautiful, wanna show you that, though you don't know
You're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful
You're beautiful, wanna tell you that, though you don't know
You're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful
Like the feel of a gun, staring at the sun
Like a step on a crack, you give me no way back
But you still don't see, you still don't know
I wanna pull you down and show you how you're beautiful
You're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful
You're beautiful, wanna show you that, though you don't know
You're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful
You're beautiful, wanna tell you that, though you don't know
You're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful
I could drown in you, I would fall right through
You could crash me down, take me underground
Smething you don't see, something you don't know
I want to spin you around and tell you that you're beautiful
You're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful
You're beautiful, wanna show you that, though you don't know
You're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful
You're beautiful, wanna tell you that, though you don't know
You're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful
Like the feel of a gun, staring at the sun
Like a step on a crack, you give me no way back
But you still don't see
You're beautiful

Tose Proeski - The Hardest Thing,I like this song very much...
I sleep all night
Right by your side
I love to hear your breathin' breathin'
The morning light
Opens my eyes
It’s nearly time
For leaven' leaving
I know that is seems like it's easy for me
All I wish you could feel what's goin' on inside
It's the hardest thing that I ever have to do
To walk away from you when I wanna hold you
It's the hardest thing in every single day
To have to turn away I want you to know that
This is the hardest thing
Another day is years away
I close my eyes to see your face
The more I wait the longer it takes
It fells like time is standing still
Wherever you go whatever you do
I want you to know that you're on my mind
It's the hardest thing that I ever have to do
To walk away from you when I wanna hold you
It's the hardest thing in every single day
To have to turn away I want you to know that
This is the hardest thing
Just let go of your hand
it's the hardest thing
To make you understand
that to love you fell you
Till the time I see you again
It's the hardest thing
Oooooouuuuuuuuu
It's the hardest thing that I ever have to do
To walk away from you when I wanna hold you
It's the hardest thing in every single day
To have to turn away I want you to know that
This is the hardest thing
I sleep all night
Right by your side
I love to hear your breathin’ breathin’

This song has been stuck in my head for the past 4 days, i've played it constantly cause it reminds me of good times. I Will Be - Avril Lavigne
There’s nothing I can say to you
Nothing I could ever do to make you see
What you mean to me
All the pain the tears they cry
Still you never said goodbye and now I know how far you’d go
I know I let you down but its not like that now
This time I’ll never let you go
I will be all that you want and get my self together
Cause you keep me from falling apart
All my life I’ll be with you for
