This is a song that describes exactly how I feel about an ex of mine...

My heart is on my sleeve
I wear it like a bruise or blackeye
My badge, my weakness
That means that I believed
Every single lie you said

Cause every pane of glass that your pebbles tap
Negates the pains I went through to avoid you
And every little pat on the shoulder for attention
Fails to mention I still hate you

But there's a light on in Chicago
And I know I should be home
All the colors of the street signs..
they remind me of the pickup truck out in front of your neighbour's house

She took me down and said:
"Boys like you are overrated. so save your breath."
Loaded words and loaded friends
Are loaded guns to our heads

Cause every pane of glass that your pebbles tap
Negates the pains I went through to avoid you
And every little pat on the shoulder for attention
Fails to mention I still hate you

But there's a light on in chicago
And I know I should be home
All the colors of the street signs..
They remind me of the pickup truck out in front of your neighbour's house

You want apologies
Girl, you might hold your breath
Until your breathing stops forever, forever
The only thing you'll get
Is this curse on your lips:
I hope they taste of me forever

And there's a light on in chicago
And I know I should be home
All the colors of the street signs..
They remind me of the pickup truck out in front of your neighbour's

Fall Out Boy-Chicago is so Two Years Ago

if my life had a soundtrack to it (something im really thinkin of making) , this would be on it

SMILE-Tamia

Sometimes i sit at home and wonder how it be if he had loved me
truly loved me yes,
i learned awhile ago that kind of thing it never happens for me,
and so i go around and just pretend love Is not for me
i play the circus clown around my friends make them laugh and they wont see
that U never let them see u sweat
dont want them to think the pain runs deep,
Lord knows its killing me

So i put on my make up, put a smile on my face
and if anyone ask me everything is ok
im Laughing cuz no one knows the joke is on me
cuz im dyin inside with my pride and a smile on my face...
on my face singing, la la la ...

Sometimes i sit at home by the phone hopin he might call me, but he dont call me.
But then i realize dreams come true arent for girls like me not like me,
and so i go around with my head up like it aint no thing
and when the boys around with all my friends im into other things
cuz u never let them see u sweat dont want them to think the pain runs deep,
lord knows its killing me..

Its not easy thing to do, sometimes its hard to face the truth,
Its not the life that i would choose, but what else can i do
if he dont love me no, if he dont want me im not about to
Sit around and let myself go ..

Someday - Nickelback
How the hell did we wind up like this
Why weren't we able
To see the signs that we missed
And try to turn the tables

I wish you'd unclench your fists
And unpack your suitcase
Lately there's been too much of this
Dont think its too late

Nothin's wrong
just as long as
you know that someday I will

Someday, somehow
gonna make it allright but not right now
I know you're wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)
Someday, somehow
gonna make it allright but not right now
I know you're wondering when

Well i hoped that since we're here anyway
We could end up saying
Things we've always needed to say
So we could end up staying
Now the story's played out like this
Just like a paperback novel
Lets rewrite an ending that fits
Instead of a hollywood horror

Nothin's wrong
just as long as
you know that someday I will

Someday, somehow
gonna make it allright but not right now
I know you're wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)
Someday, somehow
gonna make it allright but not right now
I know you're wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)

[Solo]

That's a brilliant song.

P.O.D.'s "Change the World" is a great song too:

Imagine a place only your soul can vision
The heart of a child that lokks, sees and listens
She paints a picture using every colour
And what she sees, she sees it like no other


One word, a voice unheard
You can change the world
With everything I know you're made of
One word, a voice unheard
You can change the world
If everyone would stop and listen


The art of innocence makes so much sense
But placed in the wrong hands, then it's wasted
Filtered through the eyes of a pure mind
A one-of-a-kind paradise for you and I






Of course, notbale songs include "Iris", "Slide" and "Kissed by a rose"...Beautiful songs, especially lyrically.

I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut
My weakness is that I care too much
My scars remind me that the past is real
I tear my heart open just to feel

Drunk and I'm feeling down
And I just wanna be alone
I'm pissed cause you came around
Why don't you just go home
Cause you channel all your pain
And I can't help you fix yourself
You're making me insane
All I can say is

[Chorus:]
I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut
My weakness is that I care too much
My scars remind me that the past is real
I tear my heart open just to feel

I tried to help you once
Against my own advice
I saw you going down
But you never realized
That you're drowning in the water
So I offered you my hand
Compassions in my nature
Tonight is our last stand

[Chorus]

I'm drunk and I'm feeling down
And I just wanna be alone
You shouldn't ever came around
Why don't you just go home?
Cause you're drowning in the water
And I tried to grab your hand
And I left my heart open
But you didn't understand
But you didn't understand
You fix yourself

I can't help you fix yourself
But at least I can say I tried
I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life
I can't help you fix yourself
But at least I can say I tried
I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life

I love "Scars" by papa Roach.

I also love another masterpiece by the Goo Goo Dolls, "Big Machine":

Ecstacy is all you need
Living in the big machine now
Oh, you're so vain
Now your world is way too fast
Nothin's real and nothing lasts
And I'm aware

I'm in love but you don't care
Turn your anger into lust
I'm still here, but you don't trust at all
And I'll be waiting

Love and sex and loneliness
Take what's yours and leave the rest
So I'll survive
God, it's good to be alive

[Chorus]
And I'm torn in pieces
I'm lyin there waiting for
My heart is reeling
I'm blind and waiting for you

Silly love with all your sins
Wait and stop and I begin
And I'll - I'll be waitin'
Livin' like a house on fire
What you fear is your desire
It's hard to deal
I still love the way you feel

Now this angry little girl
Drownin in this petty world
And I'm who you run to
Swallow all your bitter pills
That's what makes you beautiful
You're all a lie
I won't leave what you ain't got

[Chorus]

I'm blind and waiting for you
I'm blind and waiting for you

And I can't believe it's coming true
God, it's good to be alive
I'm still here and waitin' for you
And I can't believe it's coming true
I'm blind and waiting for you


Also, Trapt has a brilliant song called "Enigma":

Do we know how to get the message across
We turn the lights off to find a way out
It's hard to get through to grasp what was lost
Don't turn the light off and leave me in the dark
Hey, I'm pleading, my soul is bleeding
I don't want to be left alone, not when I'm right next to you
What are you thinking, it's so misleading
Is it not for me to know, I think it's just hard for you to show

We never spoke in the words that we want
We turn the lights off to find a way out
We've never chosen to keep what we've got
Don't turn the light off and leave me in the dark

I thought it would be nice to lie down and close my eyes
It never occurred to me that I am already asleep

Don't be the one to be let go
Don't be the one to be alone

Brilliant song IMO.

"Bwomp"

We're Piling It Too High
Talk Not Saying Anything
What We Leave Behind
What We Can't Afford To Keep
There's No Sympathetic Posturing
There's No More True Humanity
The Old Ways Aren't Working Anymore
Let's Separate The Users
From The Whores
Creepy Crawl
Twist The 4-5 Cap
To Get Wrapped
Tight Slap The Wax
On The Wheels To Feel Alright
Find The Flow Freak
The Funk Like Your In Heat
Wrap The Leaf
Strike The Blunt
now Your In Deep
We've Got To Get Together
Got To Get With The Game plan
To Defeat The Dealer
That Dealt This Hand
I Don't Understand
Why The Kids Are Killing Kids
When The Only One's That Benefit
Are The Big Whigs
Mankind Unkind
Always A Fine Line
We've All Got To Die
And This Time It's My Time
Hindsight Blind fight
I Hate It When I'm Right
He Destroys The World
While We Sleep At Night
Twist The 4-5 Cap
And Understand That
If It Was Up To Me
I'd Free Charles Manson
Throw It All Away
Let's Separate The Users,
From The Whores
What Do We Have To Hope For
Why Do We Event Try
Laughed At Religion Long Ago
I Doubt I'll Be An Angel When Die

by Mushroomhead, f**king great band

does anybody else have certain songs that really hit the spot as to how u feel at a certain time and even after the time has passed u still think of those times when u hear it??

im very sentimental with alot of songs i just want to know im not alone .. i was just listening to Nickelback- Photograph and that hit the spot right on the head cause lately ive been wishing i could go back to being in my early teens with all of my friends still alive and healthy before the took the wrong paths .. and right now i am listening to Someday and it was mine and my exes song and i still always think about the way it was when i hear it .. :(

There are some songs that will always be played in my collection, almost daily.

1 - Muzzle by Smashing Pumpkins

I fear that I'm ordinary, just like everyone
To lie here and die among the sorrows
Adrift among the days
For everything I ever said
And everything I've ever done is gone and dead
As all things must surely have to end
And great lovers will one day have to part
I know that I am meant for this world
My life has been extraordinary
Blessed and cursed and won
Time heals but I'm forever broken
By and by the way...
Have you ever heard the words
I'm singing in these songs?
It's for the girl I've loved all along
Can a taste of love be so wrong
As all things must surely have to end
And great lovers will one day have to part
I know that I am meant for this world
And in my mind as I was floating
Far above the clouds
Some children laughed I'd fall for certain
For thinking that I'd last forever
But I knew exactly where I was

And I knew the meaning of it all
And I knew the distance to the sun
And I knew the echo that is love
And I knew the secrets in your spires
And I knew the emptiness of youth
And I knew the solitude of heart
And I knew the murmurs of the soul
And the world is drawn into your hands
And the world is etched upon your heart
And the world so hard to understand
Is the world you can't live without
And I knew the silence of the world


2 - Imagine by john lennon

(I dont think I need to post the lyrics)

3 - I'm Interested in Apathy
by Tism
[font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]I know how to cheat at Tattslotto
I got a great idea for a song
I know the truth about Marylin Monroe
I can prove Einstein's theory wrong
But that's not what motivates me.
I'm interested in apathy.

I can predict mankind's fate
I know where there's oil in Bass Straight
All the deserts I could irrigate!
All the poor I could emancipate!
But none of this petty stuff for me.
I'm interested in apathy.

I've got the cure for all known disease
I know how to make money grow on trees
I know how to stop terrorism
I know one of the guys in TISM
Enough of this wretched pedantry.
I'm interested in apathy.

Here we are at the last verse.
I've lost interest.

You could probably throw, saturday night palsy and lillie bowled dillie caght milli vanilli by tism in there too


4 - Smith & Wesson Blues by Radio Birdman
[/font][font=Arial, Helvetica][/font]I went downtown
For something to do
Couldn't find nothing,said I
Couldn't find nothing to do
I was hanging round in bars
I was wasting time
Your face made my past
Look like a lousy dime

Cos you're never alone with a Smith & Wesson baby
You're never alone when you come round here
Wild kinetic rivers of sorrow
Riding to hell on rails of fear
Sitting in restaurant
Waiting for 6 A.M
The waitress was rough
And the milk was skim
Sunlight blasting throgh the window
Nearly drove me blind
Just like the light
On the front of that 12.05
Cos you're never alone with a Smith & Wesson baby
You're never alone when you come round here
Wild kinetic rivers of sorrow
Riding to hell on rails of fear
Night eyes shining
Like Valparaiso street lights
Wasted dogs were hanging round the dawn
Visions fading down
The streets of science
Lizard king is
Leading me on
Cos you're never alone with a Smith & Wesson baby
You're never alone when you come round here
Wild kinetic rivers of sorrow
Riding to hell on rails of fear

Throw, in I-94 and snake on that too


There are a few others including the classics like Khe Sahn but the above really hit the spot

I got a friend to burn me three CD's- I called them 'Highschool Memories 1998-2003' (Volumes 1,2 and 3). All songs that remind me of being in Highschool, different stuff that was going on in my life then. I agree with you about certain songs that hit the spot at certain times. Like when I hear 'Freestyler' by Boomfunk MC's on Volume 2, I laugh in my head as I remember what my mates and I were like at 15, but for instance when I hear 'All you wanted' by Michelle Branch on Volume 3 I can remember so vividly feeling let down, alone and disillusioned for a time in Year 11.

Yeah I get that man.

Whenever I hear "Du Hast" by Rammstein, "I've Got The Power" by H-Blocx or "The Time of Your Life" by Green Day I look back and think, "Damn Year 12 was an awesome part of my life..."

Yeah, on the compilation I asked for the last song on Volume 3 to be 'Falling' by Candice Alley- it reminds me of finishing Year 12, the night before our last ever day of school a whole bunch of us were at Terrigal beach by the surf club, playing Sumo on the sand and just hanging out on the steps, and this girl (the captain of my 'Hotties' team) backed her car up and had the radio on and I remember that song playing. :)

Man, Year 12 was the bomb.

So much fun.

They also loved to play Vitamin C's "Friends forever" or whatever the hell it was called. But EVERY graduating Year 12 class played it at my school lol.

I like the fact that you used the word "finally". It makes me feel like I was at one stage normal. :oops:

And then the flash of steel from real guns, in real life, really fills my mind...
