Lyrics of the Day

Buried Alive - Avenged Sevenfold

Take the time just to listen
When the voices screaming are much too loud
Take a look in the distance
Try and see it all

Chances are that you might find
That we share a common discomfort now
I feel I'm walking a fine line
Tell me only if it's real

Still, I'm on my way
On and on it goes
Vacant hope to take

Hey! I can't live in here for another day
Darkness has kept the light concealed
Grim as ever
Hold on to faith as I dig another grave
Meanwhile, the mice endure the wheel
Real as ever
And it seems I've been buried alive

I walked the fields through the fire
Taking steps until I found solid ground
Followed dreams, reaching higher
Couldn't survive the fall

Much has changed since the last time
And I feel a little less certain now
You know, I jumped at the first sign
Tell me only if it's real

Memories seem to fade
On and on it goes
Wash my view away

Hey! I can't live in here for another day
Darkness has kept the light concealed
Grim as ever
Hold on to faith as I dig another grave
Meanwhile, the mice endure the wheel
Real as ever
And I'm chained like a slave
Trapped in the dark
Slammed all the locks
Death calls my name
And it seems I've been buried alive

Take you down now
Burn it all out
Throw you all around
Get your ****ing hands off me!
What's it feel like?
Took the wrong route
Watch it fall apart
Now you're knocking at the wrong gate!

For you to pay the toll
A price for you alone
The only deal you'll find
I'll gladly take your soul

While it seems sick
Sober up quick
Psycho lunatic
Crushing you with hands of fate!
Shame to find out when it's too late
But you're all the same
Trapped inside; Inferno awaits!

Evil thoughts can hide
I'll help release the mind
I'll peel away the skin
Release the dark within

This is now your life
Strike you from the light
This is now your life
Die buried alive

This is now your life (What's it feel like?)
Strike you from the light (Gladly taking your soul)
This is now your life (What's it feel like?)
Die buried alive (Gladly taking your soul)

This is now your life
Die buried alive

For two legends.

Ashes to Ashes - David Bowie

Do you remember a guy that's been
In such an early song?
I heard a rumour from Ground Control
Oh no, don't say it's true

They got a message from the action man
"I'm happy, hope you're happy too
I've loved all I've needed, love
Sordid details following"

The shriek of nothing is killing, just
Pictures of Jap girls in synthesis and I
Ain't got no money and I ain't got no hair
But I'm hoping to kick but the planet it's glowing

Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
We know Major Tom's a junkie
Strung out in heaven's high
Hitting an all time low

Time and again I tell myself
I'll stay clean tonight
But the little green wheels are following me
Oh no, not again
I'm stuck with a valuable friend
"I'm happy, hope you're happy too"
One flash of light but no smoking pistol

I never done good things (I never done good things)
I never done bad things (I never done bad things)
I never did anything out of the blue, woh-o-oh
Want an axe to break the ice
Want to come down right now

Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
We know Major Tom's a junkie
Strung out in heaven's high
Hitting an all time low

My mother said, to get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom

My mother said, to get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom

My mother said, to get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom

Iron Fist - Motorhead

Dark night, nothing to see
Invisible hand is in front of me
Scared to death there's someone near
Scared to move but you can't stay here

You know me, evil eye
You know me, prepare to die
You know me, the snakebite kiss
Devil's grip, the Iron Fist

Flying horse don't make a sound
Flying hooves don't touch the ground
Walk in circles, lose your tracks
Can't go on but you can't go back

You know me, evil eye
You know me, prepare to die
You know me, the snakebite kiss
Devil's grip, the Iron Fist

Moon eclipse and you know why
Ghost rider in the sky
Beast of evil, devil's hound
Tooth and claw, they pull you down

You know me, evil eye
You know me, prepare to die
You know me, the snakebite kiss
Devil's grip, the Iron Fist

Old Love - Eric Clapton

I can feel your body
When I'm lying in bed
There's too much confusion
Going around through my head

And it makes me so angry
To know that the flame still burns
Why can't I get over?
When will I ever learn?

[Chorus:]
Old love, leave me alone
Old love, go on home

I can see your face
But I know that it's not real
It's just an illusion
Caused by how I used to feel

And it makes me so angry
To know that the flame will always burn
I'll never get over
I know now that I'll never learn

[Chorus]

Lady Gaga - The Edge of Glory
There ain't no reason you and me should be alone
Tonight, yeah, baby! (Tonight, yeah, baby!)
And I got a reason that you're who should take me home tonight (Tonight)
I need a man that thinks it's right when it's so wrong
Tonight, yeah, baby! (Tonight, yeah, baby!)
Right on the limits where we know we both belong tonight

It's hard to feel the rush, to brush the dangerous
I'm gonna run right to, to the edge with you
Where we can both fall far in love

I'm on the edge of glory, and I'm hanging on a moment of truth
Out on the edge of glory, and I'm hanging on a moment with you
I'm on the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge,
I'm on the edge of glory, and I'm hanging on a moment with you
I'm on the edge with you.

Another shot before we kiss the other side
Tonight, yeah, baby! (Tonight, yeah, baby!)
I'm on the edge of something final we call life tonight
(Alright! Alright!)
Put on your shades, 'cause I'll be dancing in the flames
Tonight, yeah, baby! (Tonight, yeah, baby!)
It isn't hell if everybody knows my name tonight
(Alright! Alright!)

It's hard to feel the rush, to brush the dangerous
I'm gonna run right to, to the edge with you
Where we can both fall far in love

I'm on the edge of glory, and I'm hanging on a moment of truth
Out on the edge of glory, and I'm hanging on a moment with you
I'm on the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge,
I'm on the edge of glory, and I'm hanging on a moment with you
I'm on the edge with you.

I'm on the edge with you
I'm on the edge with you (You, you, you...)

[Sax Solo]

I'm on the edge of glory, and I'm hanging on a moment of truth
I'm on the edge of glory, and I'm hanging on a moment with you
I'm on the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge,
I'm on the edge of glory, and I'm hanging on a moment with you
I'm on the edge with you (with you, with you, with you, with you, with you)

Wonderful Tonight - Eric Clapton

It's late in the evening; she's wondering what clothes to wear.
She puts on her make-up and brushes her long blonde hair.
And then she asks me, "Do I look all right?"
And I say, "Yes, you look wonderful tonight."

We go to a party and everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady that's walking around with me.
And then she asks me, "Do you feel all right?"
And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight."

I feel wonderful because I see
The love light in your eyes.
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize how much I love you.

It's time to go home now and I've got an aching head,
So I give her the car keys and she helps me to bed.
And then I tell her, as I turn out the light,
I say, "My darling, you were wonderful tonight.
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight."

Faith of the Heart - Russel Watson (Star Trek: Enterprise theme)
It's been a long road
Getting from there to here
It's been a long time
But my time is finally here
And I can feel the change in the wind right now,
Nothing's in my way

And they're not gonna hold me down no more,
No they're not gonna hold me down

Cause I've got faith of the heart
I'm going where my heart will take me
I've got faith to believe I can do anything
I've got strength of the soul
And no one's gonna bend or break me
I can reach any star
I've got faith
Faith of the heart

It's been a long night
Trying to find my way
Through the darkness,
Now I finally have my day
And I will see my dream come alive at last;
I will touch the sky

And they're not gonna hold me down no more
No, they're not gonna change my mind

Cause I've got faith of the heart
I'm going where my heart will take me
I've got faith to believe I can do anything
I've got strength of the soul
And no one's gonna bend or break me
I can reach any star
I've got faith
Faith of the heart

I've known the wind so cold
And seen the darkest days (Dark days)
But now the winds I feel,
they're only winds of change

I've been through the fire
And I've been through the rain
But I'll be fine

Oh I've got faith of the heart
I'm going where my heart will take me
I've got faith to believe I can do anything
I've got strength of the soul
And no one's gonna bend or break me
I can reach any star
I've got faith...

I've got faith of the heart
I'm going where my heart will take me
I've got strength of the soul
And no one's gonna bend or break me
I can reach any star
I've got faith
I've got faith
Faith of the heart

It's been a long road
 
Learn to Love - SECRETS

You're dodging each reflection
Mirrors haunt your soul, shake your bones

And I think you're missing something, darling
Leave that hole; it's not your home
Of all the troubles that you worry over
Leave those thoughts alone

You keep, keep losing grip on what you love
You hold tight, but it's never tight enough
You're losing everything
You'll earn the love you want when you learn to love yourself

You keep, keep losing sight of what went wrong
It plays back, but the visions left you lost
You're losing everything
You'll earn the love you want when you learn to love yourself

Forgive me, Father
For I have sinned
I met the devil on my shoulder
And I let him in

When no one could save me
He said he'd defend me
And with no sign from above
Could you ****ing blame me?

I'm fighting myself
I'm going crazy again
I'm just so damn tired of your voice in my head

Slow down, slow down
This world will make you think
It's all about what you see

You keep, keep losing grip on what you love
You hold tight, but it's never tight enough
You're losing everything
You'll earn the love you want when you learn to love yourself

You keep, keep losing sight of what went wrong
It plays back, but the visions left you lost
You're losing everything
You'll earn the love you want when you learn to love yourself

I wonder how long that you can go on
Believing you're a stranger
That you'll never belong in your own skin
I'm here to tell you you're far from nothing

You keep, keep losing grip on what you love
You hold tight, but it's never tight enough
You're losing everything
You'll earn the love you want when you learn to love yourself

You keep, keep losing sight of what went wrong
It plays back, but the visions left you lost
You're losing everything
You'll earn the love you want when you learn to love yourself

Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd

So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell, blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?

Did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
Did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

Open Arms - Journey

Lying beside you
Here in the dark
Feeling your heartbeat with mine
Softly you whisper
You're so sincere
How could our love be so blind
We sailed on together
We drifted apart
And here you are
By my side

So now I come to you
With open arms
Nothing to hide
Believe what I say
So here I am
With open arms
Hoping you'll see
What your love means to me
Open arms

Living without you
Living alone
This empty house seems so cold
Wanting to hold you
Wanting you near
How much I wanted you home

But now that you've come back
Turned night into day
I need you to stay

So now I come to you
With open arms
Nothing to hide
Believe what I say
So here I am
With open arms
Hoping you'll see
What your love means to me
Open arms

Miami 2017 - Billy Joel
I've seen the lights go out on Broadway
I saw the Empire State laid low
When life went on beyond the Pallisades
They all bought Cadillacs
And left there long ago

They held a concert out in Brooklyn
To watch the island bridges blow
They turned the power down
And drove us underground
But we went right on with the show

Oh oh oh oh oh oh

I've seen the lights go out on Broadway
I've seen the ruins at my feet
Yknow we almost didn't notice it
We saw it all the time on 42nd street

They burned the churches down in Harlem
Like in that Spanish Civil War
The flames were everywhere
But no one really cared
It always burned up there before

Oh oh oh oh oh oh

I seen the lights go out on Broadway
I saw the mighty skyline fall
The ships were waiting at the battery
The union went on strike.
They never sailed at all

They sent a carrier out from Norfolk
To pick the Yankees up for free
They said the Queens could stay
They blew the Bronx away
And sank Manhattan down at each

You know those lights were bright on Broadway
But that was so many years ago
Before we all lived here in Florida
Before the mafia took over Mexico
There are not many who remember
They say a handful still survives
To tell the world about the way the lights went out
And keep the memory alive.
 
Demons - Get Scared

(Hear me now)
(Hear me now)
(Hear me now)

Feel the ****ing pain and anguish pouring over me!
Am I insane or am I drowning in the agony?!
I once was fine; I'm not alright; it's getting hard to think!
Am I insane or am I drowning in the agony?!

Am I alive or just breathing? (Oh)
Cast like a stone out to sea (I'm sinking)
Buried my lies and my secrets (Oh)
Down where the world never sees

My demons!

And I swear it never had to end // like this
If I could just pretend
I'm not those things that you resent // my friends
Just leave me here for dead

Cause I'm left with nothing
But self destruction
Staring down the cliff to my descent
Into the deep end

(Hear me now)
(Hear me now)
Into the deep end!
(Hear me now)
(Hear me now)

Am I distraught in deceiving (Oh)
Sick thoughts that hang over me

With meaning!

Feel the ****ing pain and anguish pouring over me!
Am I insane or am I drowning in the agony?!
I once was fine; I'm not alright; it's getting hard to think!
Am I insane or am I drowning in the agony?!

And I swear it never had to end // like this
If I could just pretend
I'm not those things that you resent // my friends
Just leave me here for dead

Cause I'm left with nothing
But self destruction
Staring down the cliff to my descent
Into the deep end

The monsters under my bed
Won't seem to leave me alone
They sleep inside of my head
Deceive to leave, but they won't

The monsters under my bed
Won't seem to leave me alone
They sleep inside of my head
Deceive to leave, but they--

Won't!

(Hear me now)
They--
(Hear me now)
Wont!
(Hear me now)
And--

And I swear it never had to end // like this
If I could just pretend
I'm not those things that you resent // my friends
Just leave me here for dead

Cause I'm left with nothing
But self destruction
Staring down the cliff to my descent
Into the deep end

Into the deep end!
(Hear me now)
Into the deep end!
(Hear me now)

Hear me now
Hear me now
Hear me now
Hear me now
Hear me now

Believe in Myself (Tails' Theme) - Karen Blake (Sonic Adventure)
When all alone in my chair, I just go about wishin'
I wanna be strong, I really wanna be trusted
When all alone in my bed, I just go about yearnin'
I wanna be cool, I also wanna be like him

But that's not somethin' I can do so easily
This is not simply my way, my style
Gotta get a hold of my life

I wanna fly high
So I can reach the highest of all the heavens
Somebody will be
Waiting for me so I have gotta fly higher
Gotta keep goin'
Everything is a brand new challenge for me
I will believe in myself
This is the only start for me

When all alone in my sleep
I just go about dreamin'
I see myself there, having the same adventure

If I just follow you, I will not see the light
Now's the time to find my way through this life
I'm tryin' so hard to be strong

I wanna fly high
So I can reach the highest of all the heavens
Somebody will be
Waiting for me so I have gotta fly higher
Gotta keep going
Everything is a brand new challenge for me
I will believe in myself
This is the only start for me

*Guitar solo*

Many friends help me out
In return I help them
Certain things I can do, and there's things that only I can do
No one's alone

I wanna fly high
So I can reach the highest of all the heavens
Somebody will be
Waiting for me so I have gotta fly higher
Gotta keep goin'
Everything is a brand new challenge for me
I will believe in myself
This is the only start for me, me, me

River of Tears - Eric Clapton

It's three miles to the river
That would carry me away,
And two miles to the dusty street
That I saw you on today.

It's four miles to my lonely room
Where I will hide my face,
And about half a mile to the downtown bar
That I ran from in disgrace.

Lord, how long have I got to keep on running,
Seven hours, seven days or seven years?
All I know is, since you've been gone
I feel like I'm drowning in a river,
Drowning in a river of tears.
Drowning in a river.
Feel like I'm drowning,
Drowning in a river.

In three more days, I'll leave this town
And disappear without a trace.
A year from now, maybe settle down
Where no one knows my face.

I wish that I could hold you
One more time to ease the pain,
But my time's run out and I got to go,
Got to run away again.

Still I catch myself thinking,
One day I'll find my way back here.
You'll save me from drowning,
Drowning in a river,
Drowning in a river of tears.
Drowning in a river.
Feels like I'm drowning,
Drowning in the river.
Lord, how long must this go on?

Drowning in a river,
Drowning in a river of tears.
 
Hurt - Get Scared

Oh, yeah, oh yeah

How do you sleep through the night?
Where do you go when you hide?
Waiting for the truth to call
I don't fear you anymore

How do you think I'm alright?

It's the way I wait
It's the way you've changed

And I like the way you hurt // inside
Always waiting for the worst // to get me by
And I like the way you hurt
Doesn't really come--
Doesn't really come as a surprise

Oh, yeah, oh yeah

From all the years that went by (all the years that went by)
Through all of your **** I've survived (woah, oh, oh)
You would have thought I had died
But I made it out alive

How do you sleep through the night?

It's the lies you gave
Now the roles have changed

And I like the way you hurt // inside
Always waiting for the worst // to get me by
And I like the way you hurt
Doesn't really come--
Doesn't really come as a surprise

Woah, woah
It's no surprise
Woah, oh yeah

Woah (woah), woah
It's no surprise (woah)
Woah, yeah!

It's the lies you gave
Now the roles have changed

And I like the way you hurt // inside
Always waiting for the worst // to get me by
And I like the way you hurt
After all you've done--
Look what I've become

And I like the way you hurt // inside
Always waiting for the worst // to get me by
And I like the way you hurt
Doesn't really come--
It doesn't really come as a surprise!
