    What's everybodys' favorite songs/song lyrics??

    "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" by Greenday

    " My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
    My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
    Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
    'Til then I walk alone

    Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Aaah-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 where I walk alone

    Read between the lines
    What's fucked up and everything's alright
    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 shadow's the only one that walks beside me
    My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
    Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
    'Til then I walk alone"

    "I Don't Want to Be" by Gavin Degraw

    "I'm surrounded by liars everywhere I turn
    I'm surrounded by imposters everywhere I turn
    I'm surrounded by identity crisis everywhere I turn
    Am I the only one who noticed?
    I can't be the only one who's learned
    I don't want to be
    Anything other than what I've been trying to be lately
    All I have to do
    Is think of me and I have peace of mind
    I'm tired of looking 'round rooms
    Wondering what I've got to do
    Or who I'm supposed to be
    I don't want to be anything other than me
    Can I have everyone's attention please?
    If you're not like this and that, you're gonna have to leave
    I came from the mountain
    The crust of creation
    My whole situtaion-made from clay to stone
    And now I'm telling everybody
    I don't want to be
    Anything other that what I've been trying to be lately
    All I have to do
    Is think of me and I have peace of mind
    I'm tired of looking 'round rooms
    Wondering what I've got to do
    Or who I'm supposed to be
    I don't want to be anything other than me"

    "So Cold" by Breaking Benjamin

    "Crowded streets are cleared away
    One by One
    Hollow heroes separate
    As they run

    You're so cold
    Keep your hand in mine
    Wise men wonder while
    Strong men die

    [Chorus]

    Show me how it ends it's alright
    Show me how defenseless you really are
    satisfied and empty inside
    That's alright, let's give this another try

    If you find your family, don't you cry
    In this land of make-believe, dead and dry

    You're so cold, but you feel alive
    Lay your hands on me one last time"

    OK what's you guys' favorite songs in the world??

    Here are some lyrics I love. By

    R. Rodgers and O. Hammerstein II

    When you walk through the storm
    Hold your head up high
    And don't be afraid of the dark
    At the end of the storm
    There's a golden sky
    And the sweet silver song of the lark

    Walk on, through the wind
    Walk on, through the rain
    Though your dreams be tossed and blown
    Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart
    And you'll never walk alone
    You'll never walk alone

    Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart
    And you'll never walk alone
    You'll never walk alone

    I love it when any tenor sings this. Its beautiful in my opinion.

    Green Fields of France

    (Used to sing this at the Ren Faire. Many people had tears in their eyes before I was finished.) Well, how do you do, Private William McBride,
    Do you mind if I sit down here by your graveside?
    And rest for awhile in the warm summer sun,
    I've been walking all day, and I'm nearly done.
    And I see by your gravestone you were only 19
    When you joined the glorious fallen in 1916,
    Well, I hope you died quick and I hope you died clean
    Or, Willie McBride, was it slow and obscene?

    Did they Beat the drum slowly, did the play the pipes lowly?
    Did the rifles fir o'er you as they lowered you down?
    Did the bugles sound The Last Post in chorus?
    Did the pipes play the Flowers of the Forest?

    And did you leave a wife or a sweetheart behind
    In some loyal heart is your memory enshrined?
    And, though you died back in 1916,
    To that loyal heart are you forever 19?
    Or are you a stranger without even a name,
    Forever enshrined behind some glass pane,
    In an old photograph, torn and tattered and stained,
    And fading to yellow in a brown leather frame?

    The sun's shining down on these green fields of France;
    The warm wind blows gently, and the red poppies dance.
    The trenches have vanished long under the plow;
    No gas and no barbed wire, no guns firing now.
    But here in this graveyard that's still No Man's Land
    The countless white crosses in mute witness stand
    To man's blind indifference to his fellow man.
    And a whole generation who were butchered and damned.

    And I can't help but wonder, no Willie McBride,
    Do all those who lie here know why they died?
    Did you really believe them when they told you "The Cause?"
    Did you really believe that this war would end wars?
    Well the suffering, the sorrow, the glory, the shame
    The killing, the dying, it was all done in vain,
    For Willie McBride, it all happened again,
    And again, and again, and again, and again.

    Daughters lyrics by John Mayer

    I know a girl
    She puts the color inside of my world
    But she's just like a maze
    Where all of the walls all continually change
    And I've done all I can
    To stand on her steps with my heart in my hands
    Now I'm starting to see
    Maybe it's got nothing to do with me

    Fathers, be good to your daughters
    Daughters will love like you do
    Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
    So mothers, be good to your daughters too

    Oh, you see that skin?
    It's the same she's been standing in
    Since the day she saw him walking away
    Now she's left
    Cleaning up the mess he made

    So fathers, be good to your daughters
    Daughters will love like you do
    Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
    So mothers, be good to your daughters too

    Boys, you can break
    You'll find out how much they can take
    Boys will be strong
    And boys soldier on
    But boys would be gone without the warmth from
    A womans good, good heart

    On behalf of every man
    Looking out for every girl
    You are the god and the weight of her world

    So fathers, be good to your daughters
    Daughters will love like you do
    Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
    So mothers, be good to your daughters too

    This is my other favorite song...I love John Mayer.

    why georgia

    I am driving up 85 in the
    Kind of morning that lasts all afternoon
    just stuck inside the gloom
    4 more exits to my apartment but
    I am tempted to keep the car in drive
    And leave it all behind

    Cause I wonder sometimes
    About the outcome
    Of a still verdictless life

    Am I living it right?
    Am I living it right?
    Am I living it right?
    Why Georgia, why?

    I rent a room and I fill the spaces with
    Wood in places to make it feel like home
    But all I feel's alone
    It might be a quarter life crisis
    Or just the stirring in my soul

    Either way I wonder sometimes
    About the outcome
    Of a still verdictless life

    Am I living it right?
    Am I living it right?
    Am I living it right?
    Why Georgia, why?

    So what, so I've got a smile on
    But it's hiding the quiet superstitions in my head
    Don't believe me
    When I say I've got it down

    Everybody is just a stranger but
    That's the danger in going my own way
    I guess it's the price I have to pay
    Still "everything happens for a reason"
    Is no reason not to ask myself

    If I am living it right
    Am I living it right?
    Am I living it right?
    Why Georgia, why?

    Hello? Is there anybody in there? Just nod if you can hear me. Is there anyone home? Come on, now. I hear you're feeling down. Well I can ease your pain, Get you on your feet again. Relax. I need some information first. Just the basic facts, Can you show me where it hurts? There is no pain, you are receding. A distant ship's smoke on the horizon. You are only coming through in waves. Your lips move but I can't hear what you're sayin'. When I was a child I had a fever. My hands felt just like two balloons. Now I got that feeling once again. I can't explain, you would not understand. This is not how I am. I have become comfortably numb. Ok. Just a little pinprick. There'll be no more ...Aaaaaahhhhh! But you may feel a little sick. Can you stand up? I do believe it's working. Good. That'll keep you going for the show. Come on it's time to go. There is no pain, you are receding. A distant ship's smoke on the horizon. You are only coming through in waves. Your lips move but I can't hear what you're sayin'. When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse, Out of the corner of my eye. I turned to look but it was gone. I cannot put my finger on it now. The child is grown, the dream is gone. I have become comfortably numb.

    Home and Dry -- Pet Shop Boys

    So my baby's on the road
    Doing business, selling loads
    Charming everyone there
    With the sweetest smile

    Oh tonight
    I miss you
    Oh tonight
    I wish you
    Could be here with me
    But I won't see you
    'Til you've made it back again

    Home and dry
    Home and dry

    There's a plane at JFK
    To fly you back from far away
    All those dark and frantic
    Transatlactic miles

    Oh tonight
    I miss you
    Oh tonight
    I wish you
    Could be here with me
    But I won't see you
    'Til you've made it back again

    Home and dry
    Home and dry

    All the way
    Through night and day
    You fly on home tonight
    Come to me
    You know I'll be here
    When you call tonight

    Oh tonight
    I miss you
    Oh tonight
    I wish you
    Could be here with me
    But I won't see you
    'Til you've made it back again

    Home and dry
    (We're going home)
    Home and dry

    Home and dry
    (We're going home)
    Home and dry

    the music on this song is just beautiful. I like anything by the Pet Shop Boys, really. and New Order. I've been fans of both groups since forever. And both groups have collaborated together, too (well, at least Neil Tennant from PSB and Bernard Sumner from NO have!)
