Most Meaningful Song Lyrics? CAUTION : Dem Feels TRIGGER
    #21944277 - 07/14/15 10:20 PM (8 years, 6 months ago)

For you personally, of course.

Here's my current one. Been listening to it almost on repeat lately. The whole song is exactly how I feel right now. It breaks me inside while it gives me strength at the same time. The whole fucking song. Not even just one part



Quote:

All these days I've been broken and hopeless and I
And I don't feel like I'm coping, I'm hoping that I
That I can live and let go, so I can get through it
Yeah I can live and let go, so I can get through this




Quote:

The healing heart knows the eyes must overflow
Tears clear the windows that guard the soul



Quote:

There's only one force that can solve all this
I want the warm heart that we all start with
Sometimes we march out ball our fist
I will give it all up but my softness
You will never invade my holy place
I let the tears dry on my face




--------------------
The chances of you even being born, Were forty million to one. There's two parts of the statistic And I want you to live through one
3/8/95 - 7/10/15 Rest In Paradise, Brother.

This one's been on repeat too.

Quote:

Say, I wanna go outside
Guess I got to feel alive
And I don’t want to leave this fight
Take me home to where the transit lights are

Passions are confined
Feel like this heart ain't mine
Don’t need to walk the line
I’ll break this grand design

I feel closer
I feel closure now
And I am gonna break down
Chase the moment
Take me over now




--------------------

One more. Sorry guys. It's one of those nights, you know?


Quote:

Won't be shy talking ‘bout what you've given me
Conflict diamond, you shine through the misery
You walk in a room and light it up that's just with your entry
You walk in a room and light it up like it was four twenty
Some people never find out what they have
Only ever find out what they had




Quote:

But if you feel that you're ever alone While standing in the same room as me let's set it in stone You can't save me, a queen to this devilish rogue But you're bravely willing to give a hell of go




Quote:

that thought hangs around my neck like a millstone
For real though, it's like I lost you, left you, let you go
Before I got to get you or let you know
That you're my refuge, and I need you to see
The only one that I let down more than you is me




This last line brings me to tears every time.

This isn't my top one by any means - but it's hit me right in the feels ever since I first heard it.




When the wind picked up, the fire spread
And the grapevines seemed left for dead
And the northern sky looked like the end of days
The end of days

The wake up call to a rented room
Sounded like an alarm of impending doom
To warn us it's only a matter of time
Before we all burn
Before we all burn
Before we all burn
Before we all burn

We bought some wine and some paper cups
Near your daughter's school when we picked her up
And drove to a cemetery on a hill
On a hill

And we watched the plumes paint the sky gray
As she laughed and danced through the field of graves
And there I knew it would be alright
That everything would be alright
Would be alright
Would be alright
Would be alright

And the news reports, on the radio
Said it was getting worse
As the ocean air fanned the flames
But I couldn't think of anywhere I would have rather been
To watch it all burn away
To burn away

The firemen worked in double shifts
With prayers for rain on their lips
And they knew it was only a matter of time

oh fuck, also, this one blood brothers song. It really takes me back to a dark place. Also I've spent many a night in a pitch black theatre at 4am, so it hooked me instantly. I think it's lyrically pretty interesting too.







The giant swan's got ghosts in his wings,
His guts are stuffed with polaroids, and they're all humiliating
And when the wine's drunk and the wild cabaret has sung it's last voice,
And you're sitting all alone in the 4 AM darkness of a pitch-black theater,
He explodes like fireworks on the stage with gold smoke

Sing, your voice just wont stop blooming
He wrote a play and you're the protagonist
All the girls you wish you'd fucked make a guest appearance
Oh, and you just won't believe the ending

So fly me home, giant swan!
The giant swan's got a pixelated beak
His eyes are twin mushroom clouds,
His feathers are unsuspecting cities,
And his breasts are hollow apartments with the highest quality furnishings
And you can watch tv until you die there, skin draped over luxury chairs
Sing, your voice just won't stop blooming

If your heart's a diamond, buddy, what's the price?
If your heart's a diamond, what's the fucking price?
Your skin is cheap and your hair is shoddy
So sit and watch the ballerinas kick and spin
Then strip down to your vulgar skeleton
You'd better take one more drink of Captain Morgan's rum,
Oh, it's gonna sting like a raw sunrise when they black swan's gone

Back at the resort, the curtains closed, you haven't left the room for two solid weeks
With a pound of cocaine, under the bed, where the call girls perform their services
And you have to leave CNN on so you don't think about her newborn son
Who came to this town from the crotch you're renting out

"Who's at the door? What the fuck!
Who's at the door? What the fuck!
Who's at the door? What the fuck!"

Your heart is sweating; your hands are turning black
Your shadow breaks in wearing a ski mask
Is that a machete at your throat?
"Give me all your money! Give me all the dope!"
And the sun's like a painting of your whole life,
You scratch at the canvas, but you can't get inside
And the sun's like a painting of your whole life,
You scratch at the canvas, but you can't get inside

Your family is gurgling grief
You think you're just asleep
Is that the curtain closing?
Giant swan, take me to the river
Is that my flesh corroding?
Giant swan, take me to the river
All the things you wish you said are buried with your X'd out head,
All your ulterior motives
Giant swan, take me to the river
Giant swan, take me to the river

Lyrics in my sig.

Also


Quote:

Yo
To be honest
I feel completely alone
Like nobody knows me
Nobody understands me
You know I´m saying
Yo
It´s kinda like this
Check it out

[Verse 1]: NF
I´m a little bit numb
Little bit frozen
Walking amongst you
But nobody knows it
Nobody knows me
I´m lost and I´m caught in a cold dream
And they don´t see
That I´m walking around so boldly
´cause nobody out there knows these
Thoughts in my mind
Am I wasting my time?
I know I won´t survive
Hold me
´cause I´m bleeding to death
I got these holes in my chest
I feel like no one respects the fact
That I´m up to my neck
I´ve done my best but still yet
It seems like I´m out in the cold
Look at me froze
Here on my own
Please don´t let me die here alone

[Chorus]: Brooke Griffith
I cannot face this alone
I can´t get by on my own

[Verse 2]: NF
Lost in the moment
Life in a coma
Lying a rest
See my life getting colder
I´m alone
But that gone nowhere
Living in a prison and my mind´s so scared
I don´t wanna be this way
No
I don´t wanna feel this way
No
I don´t wanna die this way
While my dismay
Wish I had wings so I´d fly away
Nothing around me
Up with the clouds
I´m the real definition of drowning
My pain and my ag keeps pounding
How´s he even living in the state he´s at?
Left the pain so I never go back
But it´s right here
And it´s quite clear
Man it´s not leaving
Does anybody hear me?

[Chorus]: Brooke Griffith & Tommee Profitt
I can not face this alone (I need you 2x)
I can´t get by on my own (I need you 2x)
I can not face this alone (I need you 2x)
I can´t get by on my own (I need you 2x)

[Verse 3]: NF
I was a little bit numb
Little bit frozen
Kinda hard to see when your eyes ain´t open
How you gonna breathe
When your sin keeps choken
You to the point that you feel hopeless
Hoping things will turn around
Kinda hard to fly when you laying on the ground
Jesus is the only reason
Any of us is breathing yeah
So y´all get down
You ain´t gotta live your life in the cold
Thinking nobody out there knows
What you been through
Where you been to yeah
You ain´t gotta live alone
He´s messiah
He´s creator
Ain´t no one out there greater
Forget about them haters
Accept Christ
And make your change of
Yeah
´cause you ain´t gotta die this way
Let him wipe them tears right from your face
Life´s a dream
So you better get back on track in what the words I´m saying
Give him all your pain
Give him all your hurt
Faith is way more than going to church
Making your money and going to work
You don´t give it to God
You watch everything burn
Yeeah
And this ain´t no game
Living without him is just so insane
People they living for money and fame
Think that we changed
´cause we living the same
I don´t wanna be alone
Kept and cold
I´m so broken
I´m so froze
But no longer
´cause I got my Jesus and he makes me stronger

[Chorus]: Brooke Griffith & Tommee Profitt
I can not face this alone (I need you 2x)
I can´t get by on my own (I need you 2x)
I can not face this alone (I need you 2x)
I can´t get by on my own (I need you 2x)




Just ignore any God references. The rest is basically my fuckin anthem.


--------------------
With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way.
I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today.
Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear.
I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear.


You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being
With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

B's favorite song was wish you were here, by pink floyd. I'm still not gonna say names but it'll be obvious who it is anyways.

I can't even handle listening to Floyd anymore. I hope I can start enjoying them again but even songs that aren't wish you were here put me into tears.

Children broadripple is burning
And the girls are getting sick
Off huffin' glue up in the bathroom
While their boyfriends pick up chicks
And darling, I'm lost, I heard you whispering
That night in Fountain Square
The trash-filled streets made me wish
We were headed home
And there was love inside the basement
Where that woman used to lie
In a sleeping bag we shared
Upon the floor most every night
And darling, I'm drunk
And everything that I have loved
Has turned to stone
So pack your bags and come back home
And I'm wasted, you can taste it
Don't look at me that way
'Cause I'll be hanging from a rope
I will haunt you like a ghost

He may be trolling but I wasn't. I don't really have anything more to add, well I do but don't want to. I'll be up all night doing it, almost all my music is meaningful to me in some way.

Lyrics mean something when they stir emotion, the last video I posted does that without words. So sorry if it ends up derailing the thread, but I stand by my decision to post it.

Oh man, anything Johnny Cash is sure belonging in this thread.

But Hurt, Hurt is the single best cover song I've ever heard in my entire life. He made NiN look like a highschool garage band with his cover.
Rest In Peace, Mr. Cash.

Quote:

I think I know the answer
I stumbled on and all the world fell down
And all the sky went silent
Cracked like glass and slowly
Tumbled to the ground

They say if you look hard
You'll find your way back home
Born without a friend
And bound to die alone

I'm thinking of your highness
And crying long upon the loss
I've found
And on the plus and minus
Zero chance of ever
Turning this around

Why doesn't anyone believe
In loneliness
Stand up and everyone will see
Your holiness

They say if you look hard
You'll find your way back home
Born without a friend
And bound to die alone

Don't talk to me in that familiar way
When the keys are in my hand
Don't say that everything is here to stay
And I must try to understand

When I'm trying not to look into your eyes
Trying not to listen to your lies
Trying just to keep hold of myself
Oh, but it's hard when you leave me on the shelf

You say, I set a path for you to follow
And I've already given in
But I only meant for you to taste, not swallow
Where I end is where you must begin

And try not to look into their eyes
Try not to listen to their lies
Try just to keep hold of yourself
Oh, I know it's hard when they leave you on their shelf

She's such a sweet girl free of the taints of this world
Think that's a compliment, don't be so full of sentiment
Why you worship sweetness? What virtue's there in weakness?
Being pushed about is nothing much to shout about, I know

So try not to look into their eyes
Try not to listen to their lies
Try just to keep hold of yourself
Oh, I know it's hard when they leave you on their shelf

Oh man, anything Johnny Cash is sure belonging in this thread.

But Hurt, Hurt is the single best cover song I've ever heard in my entire life. He made NiN look like a highschool garage band with his cover.
Rest In Peace, Mr. Cash.





That's a great one. It almost seems written for the guy.



In the clearing stands a boxer,
And a fighter by his trade
And he carries the reminders
Of ev'ry glove that laid him down
And cut him till he cried out
In his anger and his shame,
"I am leaving, I am leaving."
But the fighter still remains

The Pogues - The Band Played Waltzing Matilda



So they collected the cripples, the wounded, the maimed
And they shipped us back home to Australia
The armless, the legless, the blind, the insane
Those proud wounded heroes of Suvla
And as our ship pulled into Circular Quay
I looked at the place where my legs used to be
And thank Christ there was nobody waiting for me
To grieve and to mourn and to pity
And the band played Waltzing Matilda
As they carried us down the gangway
But nobody cheered, they just stood and stared
Then turned all their faces away

little hell by city and colour


What if I can't be all that you need me to be
We've got a good thing going, we have some promises to keep
But my addiction it can be such a detriment
Please believe in this my dear, I am more than penitent

What if everything's just the way that it will be
Could it be that I am meant to cause you all this grief
My war ships are lying off the coast of your delicate heart
And my aim is steady and true as it's been right from the start

There's a degree of difficulty in dealing with me
From my haunted past comes a daunting task of living through memories
If we could just hang a mirror on the bedroom wall, stare into the past and forget it all

So when we leave it'll be a quick midnight escape
We'll disconnect ourselves from all of yesterday
I'll dig for water and fashion our very own wishing well
Then we'll throw our coins down hoping to rid us of this little hell

There's a degree of difficulty in dealing with me
From my haunted past comes a daunting task of living through memories.
If we could just hang a mirror on the bedroom wall, stare into the past and forget it all

Will we get out of this little hell
Will we get out of this little hell
Will we get out of this little hell
Will we get out of this little hell

this reminds me so much of my last relationship.... it did not end well.


--------------------
I fucking hate you... God damn, I love you...
But we both know if we stick together, we'll just tear ourselves apart
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy, when skies are grey
You are my heroin, but there's an abscess... God damn, I miss the vein!

the receiving end of it all by streetlight manifesto


So Marigold, my love, you've had too much to drink
And I need not remind you, our discount tickets for this sinking ship
Take-backs and sweet regrets, that's all that we have left
No one is looking out for anyone but number one

One to one, two to dance, we all get our sweet romance
Though sour grapes will turn to wine its all just vinegar with time
And oh, I want to know, we all want to know
How can anybody treat somebody so?

She said it hurts too much
I said it will never hurt enough
No one will ever see these cuts
No one will ever call this bluff
But that's just the way that it goes

And when he left us he said, "It's not so bad"
That motherfucker he took everything we had
And when I'm thinking back, I'm counting all the ways
Nobody helped us so we dreamt of better days
And we sang: "Yeah that's just the way that it goes"

Yeah, we used to be in love (my love!), but now we're just in like
And we broke all our promises and baby that ain't right
Because you don't know what it's like to lose it all
Take it back, take it back because you don't know what it's like
to be on the receiving end of it all

No! no! You were not on the receiving end of it all [4x]

You beg and plead, but no one here can save you
Why would they try when they can't quite save themselves?

So Marigold, someday we'll have to write a script
But I won't stop denying ashamed of all the selfish things we did
Dropped out of every single friendship that you had
They nearly loved you, but you never could have loved somebody back

Tell me of your sorrows; tell me everything from the start
I'd like to do my part to help a friend in need
I said you could come to me, but when you needed someone most, I wasn't there,
I wasn't even...

She said it hurts too much
I said it will never hurt enough
No one will ever see these cuts
No one will ever call this bluff
But that's just the way that it goes

And when he left us he said, "It's not so bad"
That motherfucker he took everything we had
And when I'm thinking back, I'm counting all the ways
Nobody helped us so we dreamt of better days
And we sang: "Yeah that's just the way that it goes"

Yeah, we used to be in love (my love!), but now we're just in like
And we broke all our promises and baby that ain't right
Because you don't know what it's like to lose it all
Take it back, take it back because you don't know what it's like
to be on the receiving end of it all

No! no! You were not on the receiving end of it all [4x]

You beg and plead, but no one here can save you
Why would they try when they can't quite save themselves?

Yeah, we used to be in love (my love!), but now we're just in like
And we broke all our promises and baby that ain't right
Because you don't know what it's like to lose it all
Take it back, take it back because you don't know what it's like
to be on the receiving end of it all

No! no! You were not on the receiving end of it all [4x]

You beg and plead, but no one here can save you
Why would they try when they can't quite save themselves?

this song will always get to me.  it's like these guys are singing to me about my life when i hear it.... super trippy and meaningful for me.
