Lyrics of the Day

[Daku Rinku]

“Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I'm still right here
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.”
-Hurt Abridged, Johnny Cash

"SIXTEEN TONS" - TENNESSEE ERNIE FORD.


Some people say a man is made outta mud
A poor man's made outta muscle and blood
Muscle and blood and skin and bones
A mind that's a-weak and a back that's strong

You load 16 tons, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
St. Peter, don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine
I loaded 16 tons of number nine coal
And the straw boss said, "Well, a-bless my soul"

You load 16 tons, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
St. Peter, don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

I was born one mornin', it was drizzlin' rain
Fightin' and trouble are my middle name
I was raised in the canebrake by an ol' mama lion
Can't no high toned woman make me walk the line

You load 16 tons, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
St. Peter, don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

If you see me comin', better step aside
A lotta men didn't, a lotta men died
One fist of iron, the other of steel
If the right one don't get you
Then the left one will

You load 16 tons, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
St. Peter, don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

Lean on Me
Song by Bill Withers​

“Lean on me
When you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on...
For it won't be long
Till I'm gonna need somebody to lean on
Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill
Those of your needs that you won't let show
You just call on me brother when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'll understand
We all need somebody to lean on
Lean on me
When you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on...
For it won't be long
Till I'm gonna need somebody to lean on
You just call on me brother
When you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'll understand
We all need somebody to lean on
If there is a load you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call me
Call me
If you need a friend
(call me)
Call me (call me)
If you need a friend
(call me)
If you ever need a friend
(call me)
Call me
(call me) Call me
(call me) Call me
(call me) Call me
(call me).”

"OF GREETINGS AND GOODBYES" - AFI:

Now ending discreetly, just like a hidden sin
As I go under please tuck me in
Make me invisible
This hidden explosion calls for a wandering cast with no direction
Enter all monsters let us twist another fairy tale

Go kill the lights, we'll glow till morning comes
(Then we go under)
(Whoa whoa)
I'll say goodnight and bow to everyone
Then we go under

The beauties are sleeping as fruit just rots away
Today go hungry, let it begin
Make me invincible
There was a weeping I carried down today, a sigh worth keeping
Deep within divinity let's star another secret show

Go kill the lights, we'll glow till morning comes
(Then we go under)
(Whoa whoa)
I'll say goodnight and bow to everyone

No need to worry it is just another monster
No need to fear here in the secret show
No need to worry I am just another monster
In you, I'll see me, in the secret show

Go kill the lights, we'll glow till morning comes
(Then we go under)
(Whoa whoa)
I'll say goodnight and bow to everyone

Go kill the lights, we'll glow till morning comes
(Whoa whoa)
I'll say goodnight and bow to everyone

"TO TAME A LAND" - IRON MAIDEN:

He is the King of all the land
In the Kingdom of the sands
Of a time tomorrow

He rules the sandworms and the Fremen
In a land amongst the stars
Of an age tomorrow

He is destined to be a King
He rules over everything
In the land called Planet Dune

Body water is your life
And without it, you would die
In the desert of Planet Dune, oh!

Without a stillsuit, you would fry
On the sands so hot and dry
In a world called Arrakis

It is a land that's rich in spice
The sandriders and the "mice"
That they call the "Muad'Dib"

He is the Kwisatz Haderach
He is born of Caladan
And will take the Gom Jabbar

He has the power to foresee
Or to look into the past
He is the ruler of the stars

The time will come for him
To lay claim his crown
And then the foe
Yes, they'll be cut down

You'll see, he'll be
The best that there's been
Messiah supreme
True leader of men

And when the time
For judgment's at hand
Don't fret, he's strong
He'll make a stand

'Gainst evil and fire
That spreads through the land
He has the power
To make it all end

"FOR THE GREATER GOOD OF GOD" - IRON MAIDEN:

Are you a man of peace
Or a man of holy war?
Too many sides to you
Don't know which anymore

So many full of life
But also filled with pain
Don't know just how many
Will live to breathe again

A life that's made to breathe
Destruction or defense
A mind that's vain corruption
Bad or good intent

A wolf in sheep's clothing
Or saintly or sinner
Or some that would believe
A holy war winner

They fire off many shots
And many parting blows
Their actions beyond a reasoning
Only God would know

And as he lies in heaven
Or it could be in hell
I feel he's somewhere here
Or looking from below
But I don't know, I don't know

Please tell me now what life is
Please tell me now what love is
Well, tell me now what war is
Again, tell me what life is

More pain and misery in the history of mankind
Sometimes it seems more like
The blind leading the blind
It brings upon us more of famine, death and war
You know religion has a lot to answer for

Please tell me now what life is
Please tell me now what love is
Well, tell me now what war is
Again, tell me what life is

And as they search to find
The bodies in the sand
They find its ashes that are
Scattered across the land

And as the spirits seem to whistle on the wind
A shot is fired somewhere another war begins
And all because of it
You'd think that we would learn
But still the body count the city fires burn

Somewhere there's someone dying
In a foreign land
Meanwhile the world is crying
Stupidity of man
Tell me why?
Tell me why?

Please tell me now what life is
Please tell me now what love is
Well, tell me now what war is
Again, tell me what life is

Please tell me now what life is
Please tell me now what love is
Well, tell me now what war is
Again, tell me what life is

For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God

For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God

Please tell me now what life is
Please tell me now what love is
Well, tell me now what war is
Again, tell me what life is

Please tell me now what life is
Please tell me now what love is
Well, tell me now what war is
Again, tell me what life is

For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God

For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God

He gave his life for us
He fell upon the cross
To die for all of those
Who never mourn his loss

It wasn't meant for us
To feel the pain again
Tell me why?
Tell me why?

"EPITAPH" - NECROPHAGIST:

Leaves fall in the autumn
Of lives that appear
To be worthless to some
Utmost ignorant

Expectations shift in the eye
Of the beholder... behold

Tears drop from the eye
Of lives paled
As jealousy fools
A mind distorted

Expectations shift in the eye
Of the beholder... behold

One wishes existence
To be of fulfillment
But leaves bend to the will
Of winds blowing

To foresee the end
Of a soul... Epitaph

One wishes existence
To be of fulfillment
But leaves bend to the will
Of winds blowing

To foresee the end
Of a soul... Epitaph

Claim to foresee
The end of a soul
Premature epitaph

To foresee the end
Of a soul......
