ok lyrics and weed go hand in hand, we all know this....
so post some lyrics that mean something to you, lyrics that are more than just a song to you... lyrics that inspire, lyrics that remind you of good or bad, lyrics that actually touch you the way most anything else can't.... i need more time to think of mine, but i wanted to get this thread started before i forgot.
Have you ever loved someone so much, you'd give an arm for?
Not the expression, no, literally give an arm for?
When they know they're your heart
And you know you were their armor
And you will destroy anyone who would try to harm her
But what happens when karma, turns right around and bites you?
And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
And I didn't feel a thing, So baby don't feel no pain
Just smile back

one set...
Look at this photograph
Everytime I do it makes me laugh
How did our eyes get so red
And what the hell is on Joey's head
And this is where I grew up
I think the present owner fixed it up
I never knew we'd ever went without
The second floor is hard for sneaking out
And this is where I went to school
Most of the time had better things to do
Criminal record says I broke in twice
I must have done it half a dozen times
reminds me of wen i lived in new york. I love all my friends and id give a limb to be able to live there again
Over the past few months I have grown to be a huge fan of Rise Against. I have all of their albums and honestly can't find a single song that I don't like.
I listen to them all of the time for the past few weeks and am always toking and the lyrics of the song "Survive." It literally gives me chills listening to it and in a weird, possibly corny way, it motivates me. Like a kick in the ass. It's just a great song with inspiring lyrics.
I have had a few lines from the song in my signature that I do take out of context though, but I don't care. I'm always in a great mood and I think life is fucking great.
Quote:
Somewhere between happy and total fucking wreck,
Feet sometimes on solid ground and sometimes at the edge,
To spend your waking moments, simply killing time,
Is to give up on your hopes and dreams, give up on yourâ?¦
[Chorus:]
Life for you, has been less than kind,
So take a number, stand in line,
Weâ??ve all been sorry, weâ??ve all been hurt,
But how we survive, is what makes us who we are.
An obvious disinterest, a barely managed smile,
A deep nod in agreement, a status quo exile,
I shirk my obligations, I miss all your dead-lines,
I excel at quitting early, and fucking up my life...
[Chorus]
All smiles and sunshine, a perfect world on a perfect day,
Everything always works out, I have never felt so fucking great,
(All smiles and sunshine, a perfect world on a perfect day,
Everything always works out, I have never felt so great.)
(Life isnâ??t like this) [x4]
Life isnâ??t like this [x2]
(Life isnâ??t like this) [x3]
Are we verging on an answer, or fucking up our lives?
[Chorus]
(Who we are),
Itâ??s what makes us who we are,
(Who we are),
Makes us who we are,
(Who we are),
Itâ??s what makes us who we are,
(Who we are).
I am he as you are he as you are me
and we are all together
See how they run like pigs from a gun
see how they fly
I'm crying
Sitting on a cornflake
Waiting for the van to come
Corporation T-shirt, stupid bloody Tuesday
Man you've been a naughty boy
you let your face grow long
I am the eggman
they are the eggmen
I am the walrus
Goo goo g' joob
Mr. city policeman sitting
pretty little policemen in a row
See how they fly like Lucy in the sky
See how they run
I'm crying
I'm crying, I'm crying
Yellow matter custard
Dripping from a dead dog's eye
Crabalocker fishwife
Pornographic priestess
Boy, you've been a naughty girl
you let your knickers down
I am the eggman
They are the eggmen
I am the walrus
Goo goo g' joob
Sitting in an English garden
waiting for the sun
If the sun don't come you get a tan
from standing in the English rain
I am the eggman
They are the eggmen
I am the walrus
Goo goo g' joob
Expert, texpert choking smokers
don't you think the joker laughs at you
See how they smile like pigs in a sty
See how they snide
I'm crying
Semolina pilchard
climbing up the Eiffel tower
Elementary penguin singing Hare Krishna
Man, you should have seen them kicking
Edgar Allan Poe
I am the eggman
They are the eggmen
I am the walrus
Goo goo g' joob
Goo goo g' joob
Goo goo g' goo
goo goo g' joob goo
juba juba juba
juba juba juba

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 religon too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...
Imagine no possesions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
In 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 some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Love,
Yeah, you got to get going
no time to be sittin down
some people not knowing life is a cycle
you gotta know how to get around
whoo! haaa!
Chorus
Yes you got to be strong
and be all the best you can
the world is out there conquer your fears
and don't you wait too long (x2)
Verse 1
Hi! How ya doin?
Long time I haven't seen you
hope your're behaving yourself now
like a good behaving citizen
nothing comes easy
you gotta work what I'm telling you
hope and pray for the best
cause I believe in you
not like the stereotypes
cleanliness intriguing you
give thanks and praise for my life
and for us being here
children can't go to school the system killing us
there's good in us
and we always wanna be bringin (it) out
show the world what we got
the struggle continues, yow
check the conditions in which we're living, yow
ain't no one come giving, yow
got to work to be a winner
our children going to bed
without having their dinner
(Chorus)
Verse 2
People all filled with expecations
that's fine with me
opportunity comes but once
so its time for me
I don't think of failure because the sun shines for me
something in the back of my head keeps reminding me
give a listening, yuh hear?
When I call
there's good and bad
so just be good and stand tall
a lot of people out there wish for me to fall
I'm not scared,
I pray to He who have created us all
evils and the demons, whoo
I don't stuck with them
hey they don't like me
hey, what's up with them?
I just can't do without Jah love because it's like the oxygen
I'm no in no folly
I don't inna no crap with them
dude, i fucking LOVE rise against to death. by far my fav bandQuote:

Kenny Chesney - Back Where I Come From
In the town where I was raised
The clock ticks and the cattle graze
Time passed with Amazing Grace
Back where I come from
Now you can lie on a riverbank
Paint your name on a water tank
Or miscount all the beers you drank
Back where I come from
Back where I come from
Where I'll be when it's said and done
I'm proud as anyone
Back where I come from
We learned in Sunday school
Who made the sun shine through
I know who made the moonshine, too
Back where I come from
Blue eyes on a Saturday night
Tan legs in the broad day light
TV's, they were black and white
Back where I come from
Back where I come from
Where I'll be when it's said and done
I'm proud as anyone
Back where I come from
Some say it's a backward place
Narrow minds on a narrow way
I make it a point to say
That that's where I come from
That's where I come from
Where I'll be when it's said and done
I'm proud as anyone
That's where I come from
Back where I come from
I'm an old Tennessean
And I'm proud as anyone
That's where I come from
That's where I come from
That's where I come from

Worn out places, Worn out faces
Bright and early for the daily races
Going nowhere, Going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, No expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrows
No tomorrow, No tomorrow
Chorus
And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which i'm dying, Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
When people run in circles its a very very
Mad World, Mad World
Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
And they feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, Sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, No one knew me
Hello teacher tell me whats my lesson
Look right through me, Look right through me
Chorus
And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which i'm dying, Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very very
Mad World, Mad World
Enlargen your world
Mad World

This song means the world to me..

May God bless and keep you always,
May your wishes all come true,
May you always do for others
And let others do for you.
May you build a ladder to the stars
And climb on every rung,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.
May you grow up to be righteous,
May you grow up to be true,
May you always know the truth
And see the lights surrounding you.
May you always be courageous,
Stand upright and be strong,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.
May your hands always be busy,
May your feet always be swift,
May you have a strong foundation
When the winds of changes shift.
May your heart always be joyful,
May your song always be sung,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.
Dedicated to my friend Justin, 1991-2006 R.I.P, You'll always be missed!
Guilty - Alice Cooper
Just tried to have fun
Raised Hell and then some
I'm a dirt talking , beer drinking woman chasing minister's son
Slap on the make-up
And blast out the music
Wake up the neighborns with a roar like a teenage heavy metal elephant gun
If you call that guilty then that's what I am
I'm guilty
I'm guilty
Like driving too fast
Love going too far
It seems the law's on my ass everytime I stick it out of the door
If you call that guilty then that's what I am
I'm guility
I'm guilty
Bad boy on a summer night
When the heat makes me mean and I want to fight
With my pedal to the metal
And I do what I want to do
Bad girls make me feel all right
When it's hot and they start screaming in the night
Golly gee, it's wrong be so guilty
I'm guilty
Guilty
I'm guilty
My conscience is on vacation in acute degeneration
Willpower has sunk to an all-time low
If you call that guilty well I guess I am
I'm guilty
I'm guilty
If you call this guilty then that's what I am
I'm guilty, I'm guilty, I'm guilty, I'm guilty
I'm guilty, I'm guilty, I'm guilty, I'm guilty
Well, I'm guilty
Yeah, I'm guilty
I don't care
I'm guilty
I think I have been framed anyway
They said I'm guilty
I'm guilty
They're guilty and everyone is guilty

oh man, there are SO MANY lyrics that i love out there. but recently, i was listening to my pal alex's band Flights of Fancy when these lyrics came to me and made perfect sense:
'all we ever wanted was to jam
to collaborate
to anticipate
the function
our waves would create.
all we ever wanted was to stick it to the man
to renovate
to alleviate
the pain
of never playing it again.'
Individually wrapped, placed in neat little rows
Becoming A piece, of everything that grows
Some numbers, A name, to indicate you played the game
Came empty handed and left the same
A soul is A soul and A shell is A shell
The border in between is full of everything you felt
Some cling to A cross because they're tired and lost
They leave it up to the weather to measure the cost
And everytime I look within I recognize the darkness
Familiar to the image of the artist
Staring at the bathroom mirror in A strangers apartment
Can't remember her name, don't remember how I got here
But here I am, thinking about death again
Humbles out the stress, helps the breath get in
I need to check my friends as well as my next of kin
To let them know I love them all to the end
And when the soul begins to reap, I think she'll know me from the sleep
I keep caught in the corner of my bloodshot eyes
And if she has the nerve, to let me dump a few last words
I'm gonna turn to the earth and scream "Love your life!"
Love your life, quite cliche but I guess thats me
A ball of pop culture with some arms and feet
As discrete as I've tried to keep the drama and cancer
It's no secret I hunger for someone to feed the answers
I never expected a bowl of cherries
I'm just a virgo trying to find my own version of the virgin mary
And when I let them carry me to a cemetary
I wanna be buried with a pocket full of clarity
Chorus goes here.
Let no tears to fall from none of y'all
Just remember it all, the beauty as well as the flaws
L-O-V-E L-I-F-E
Here lies Sean, finally free
And as I look across the sea I smile at the sun
While it feeds the weeds the nutrition they need
The people still breathe, the city still bleeds
I'm going to love it to death and keep planting my seeds
I'm going to love it to death and keep an eye on the seeds
I'll be in love till im dead, I keep reaching the seeds
I'll give all I got left just to teach you to read
Love life to the death and keep planting my seeds
And when the soul begins to reap, I think she'll know me from the sleep
I keep caught in the corner of my bloodshot eyes
And if she has the nerve, to let me dump a couple last words
I'm gonna turn to the earth and scream (Love your life)
-Atmosphere
I didn't put the chorus and this song really speaks to me.
its just one of those days.. when ya dont wanna wake up
everything is fucked
everybody sucks
you dont really know why but you wana justify rippin someone's head off
no human contact
and if you interact
you're life is on contract
you're best bet is to stay away mother fucker
its just one of those days
Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.
Mother mother fuck. Mother mother fuck fuck. Mother fuck mother fuck.
Noise noise noise.
1 2 1 2 3 4
Noise noise noise.
Smokin weed, smokin weed.
Doin' coke, drinkin beers.
Drinkin beers, beers beers.
Rollin' fatties, smokin blunts.
Who smokes the blunts? We smoke the blunts.
Rollin' blunts and smokin um'
15 bucks, little man, put that shit in my hand.
If that money doesn't show then you owe me owe me owe.
My jungle love.
Oh e oh e oh.
I think I wanna know ya know ya ... yeah, what.
^^that one was mostly a joke, but for real:
Modest Mouse's "The Good Times Are Killing Me"
The good times are killing me. Here we go!
Got dirt, got air, got water and I know you can carry on.
Shrug off shortsighted false excitement and oh what can I say?
Have one, have twenty more "one mores" and oh it does not relent.
The good times are killing me.
Kick butt buzz-cut dickheads who didn't like what I said.
The good times are killing me. Jaws clenching tight we talked all night, oh but what the hell did we say?
The good times are killing me. The good times are killing me. The good times are killing me.
Fed up with all that LSD.
Need more sleep than coke or methamphetamines.
Late nights with warm, warm whiskey.
I guess the good times they were all just killing me.
Got dirt, got air, got water and I know you can carry on.
The good times are killing me.
Enough hair of the dog to make myself an entire rug.
The good times are killing me.
Have one, have twenty more "one mores" and oh it does not relent.
The good times are killing me.
Shit-kicker city slickers who all wanted me dead.
The good times are killing me.
Get sucked in and stuck in late nights with more folks that I don't know. The good times are killing me.
The good times are killing me.
The good times are killing me.
The good times are killing me.
The good times are killing me.
The good times are killing me.
The good times are killing me.
The good times are killing me.
The good times are killing me.

I thought that i was the only person on earth who liked Modest Mouse lol. I was listening to this song last night on the way home, and it was great. Im happy to know that someone else out there appreciates a band like Modest Mouse.
White tie black jacket.
I ain't see you in a while.
Your whites shine, black velvet.
I ain't seen you in a while.
You're slick, a slick and polished mess.
I ain't seen you in a while.
Lets just face the fact and get back to the basic form.
I didn't vote for this state of affairs.
My emotional state's got me prostrate, fearing my fears.
In all reality I'm under prepared.
'Cause I'm ready for war but not sure if I'm ready to care.
And that's why I'm under prepared.
'Cause I'm ready to fight, but most fights have me fighting back tears.
'Cause the truth is really I'm scared.
Not scared of the truth, but just scared of the length you'll go to fight it.

Cramps - The Creature From The Black Leather Lagoon
Better ask my momma how to make a monster...
i'm the creature from the black leather lagoon,
i'm a beautiful monster from outer space, too,
learned how to shake my hips in the inner sanctum,
satan gave me tips and then i thanked him,
i'm the creature from the black leather lagoon
<i>[chorus:]</i>
black black, black black leather,
smash smash, black black leather,
kill kill, black black leather,
crash crash, black black leather, i
'm the creature from the black leather lagoon
i'm a chicken-fried fire-eatin' son of a gun,
concieved by my devil daddy on a chicken run,
like a fireball flyin' down thunder road, daddy made mama but she shoulda said no,
i'm the raw Hyde monster they named number 1
i'm the creature from the black leather lagoon,
i'm a genuine juvenille delinquent from the moon,
i'm like a hundred billion hydrogen bombs,
mama wanted a goat, but i got mom's,
i'm the creature from the black leather lagoon
NO WAY! I LOVE Modest Mouse, I also really like So Much Beauty in Dirt, Paper Thin Walls, Polar Opposites, and Bukowski.Quote:

Since someone already posed lennon, then..
Boom!
I've been walking through your streets,
Where all your money's earning,
Where all your building's crying
And clueless neckties working,
Revolving fake lawn houses,
Housing all your fears,
Desensitized by TV,
Overbearing advertising,
God of consumerism,
And all your crooked pictures
Looking good, mirrorism,
Filtering information,
For the public eye,
Designed for profiteering,
Your neighbor, what a guy.
BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM,
Every time you drop the bomb,
You kill the god your child has born,
BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM.
Modern globalization,
Coupled with condemnations,
Unnecessary death,
Matador corporations,
Puppeting your frustrations,
With the blinded flag,
Manufacturing consent,
Is the name of the game,
The bottom line is money,
Nobody gives a fuck.
4000 hungry children leave us per hour,
From starvation,
While billions are spent on bombs,
Creating death showers.
BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM,
Every time you drop the bomb,
You kill the god your child has born,
BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM
BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM
Why, why, why, why must we kill, kill, kill, kill
Our own, own, own, own kind...
BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM,
Every time you drop the bomb,
You kill the god your child has born,
BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM
BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM
Every time you drop the bomb.
