Lyrics That Mean So Much To You


Recommended Posts

When I was five you stood like a tree, you everything that I wanted to be.

But it was cold as hell and I was worried sick, when November came and you boarded that plane.

Egress my brother, come back home

Forget the dead armies, and the love that robbed you

It's raining and it's pouring, but our father is not sleeping.

None of us sleep well these days since you left

We've all been clinging to your letters.

And how in the hell does your wife sleep when you're gone

I'm a grown ass man who doesn't even do drugs anymore and I was 100% serious about "Fuck the police"

 

 

But also, as someone who has dealt with depression for well over a decade, pretty much every lyric from The Saddest Landscape is something I can relate to.

 

"And I just want to go back to when we didn't have to drink ourselves to sleep, back to when our dreams didn't weigh us down, back to when each day didn't feel like something we just survived."

"And I just want to go back to when we didn't have to drink ourselves to sleep, back to when our dreams didn't weigh us down, back to when each day didn't feel like something we just survived."

This was almost my grad quote, because, like, I was 18 and lonely.  Instead, I went with lyrics from Imperfect But Ours.  Looking back, it was obviously melodramatic, and I should have gone with one of my other considerations,

 

"Life is something to laugh about".

As Cities Burn - Wake Dead Man, Wake

Love, what is love without trust

At my word would you bring your Isaac



 

Son, I loved you at your darkest

 

 

Pedro The Lion - Criticism As Inspiration

Then there's your girlfriend, she opens her legs and gives your life meaning.

Is that what you love her for?

 

 

Death Cab For Cutie - Someday You Will Be Loved

You may feel alone when you're falling asleep

And everytime tears roll down your cheeks

But I know your heart belongs to someone you've yet to meet

Someday you will be loved

 

 

Twothirtyeight - You Made A Way For Moses

It's two o’clock now,

I'm tired and I should be off to bed.

Monday flew by, where were you?

In my heart and not my head

Turn on the TV or the radio

But there's nothing for me there

Maybe if I saught you or I thought of you

Then I wouldn't feel this way.

 

Jesus you made a way for Moses

Can you make a way for me now?

Jesus you made a way for Moses

 

Don't you remember when I was younger

What you use to say

What you love and cherish deeply

Will turn and kill you someday

Although I'm dying like a martyrIt's to my flesh and not to you

But I've come to seek forgiveness

A thing that only you can do

 

Jesus you made a way for Moses

Can you make one for me now?

Jesus you made a way for Moses...

If you used the lyrics from Imperfect But Ours that I think you did, I almost got them tattooed on me and still might. Didn't have the money to add lyrics to my TSL tattoo when I got it, so I've been going back in forth between a few while I wait to have enough money.

I got 2

First is 2 diff parts of the same song. Forget Her by Buckley

Don't fool yourself, she was heartache from the moment that you met her.

My heart is frozen still as I try to find the will to forget her, somehow.

She's somewhere out there now.

2nd set

Well my tears falling down as I try to forget,

Her love was a joke from the day that we met.

All of the words, all of her men,

All of my pain when I think back to when.

Remember her hair as it shone in the sun,

The smell of the bed when I knew what she'd done.

Tell yourself over and over you won't ever need her again

And In the arms of sleep by smashing pumpkins

Cause I'll always miss her wherever she goes

And I'll always need her more than she could ever need me

I need someone to ease my mind

But sometimes a someone is so hard to find

Kind of related, but I've got a lighter with lyrics from The Sixth Golden Ticket hand engraved on it by Andy.

 

I hate that I've been happy these last few months because I can't get my TSL fix.

Put your hands on the wheel

Let the golden age begin

Let the window down

Feel the moonlight on your skin

Let the desert wind

Cool your aching head

Let the weight of the world

Drift away instead

 

These day I barely get by

I don't even try

 

It's a treacherous road

With a desolated view

There's distant lights

But here they're far and few

And the sun don't shine

Even when its day

You gotta drive all night

Just to feel like you're ok

 

These days I barely get by

I don't even try

We've got mixtapes and we've got heartache, we've got memories we haven't made yet. We've got nights under covers under stars, and we've got days that we never want to end. And I promise we will miss all of this someday. And I promise we will miss these days.

Everything about these lyrics are genius, and the flow, ahhhh. Love.

 

 

Tv on the Radio

Congratulations on the mess you made of things;
On trying to reconstruct the air and all that brings.
And oxidation is the compromise you own
But this is beginning to feel like the dog wants her bones saved

You force your fire then you falsify your deeds
Your methods dot the disconnect from all your creeds
And fortune strives to fill the vacuum that it feeds
But this is beginning to feel like the dog's lost her lead

This is beginning to feel like the long winded blues of the never
This is beginning to feel like it's curling up slowly and finding a throat to choke

This is beginning to feel like the long winded blues of the never
Barely controlled locomotive consuming the picture and blowing the crows, the smoke

This is beginning to feel like the long winded blues of the never
Static explosion devoted to crushing the broken and shoving their souls to ghost

Eternalised. Objectified.
You set your sights so high.
But this is beginning to feel like
the bolt busted loose from the lever

Never you mind
Death professor
Your structure's fine
My dust is better
Your victim flies so high
All to catch a bird's eye view of who's next

Never you mind
Death professor.
Love is life,
My love is better.
Eyes could be the diamonds
Confused with who's next

Never you mind
Death professor.
Your shocks are fine,
My struts are better.
Your fiction flies so high,
Y'all could use a doctor
Who's sick, who's next?

Never you mind
Death professor.
Electrified, my love is better
It's crystallized, so am I.
All could be the diamond
Fused with who's next

This is beginning to feel like the dawn of a loser forever
This is beginning to feel like the dawn of a loser forever
This is beginning to feel like the dawn of a loser forever
