Music and Lyrics

Lists, lists, and more lists. It seems that I've entered into a list phase with my posts lately. I must admit that I love list posts because they are easy to do and I don't have to think much about them. I know, I suck, I'm not actually posting anything thats all that valuable but its fun for me! So here we go with yet another list post, this time I'm going to put up some of my favorite lyrics. So, without further adieu, here are some of my favorite lyrics (in no particular order of course).

• Bright Eyes - Road to Joy
• Well I could have been a famous singer
  If I had someone else’s voice
  But failure’s always sounded better
  Lets fuck it up boys, make some noise!

• Marilyn Manson - Last Day On Earth
• The dogs slaughter each other softly
  Love burns it's casualties
  We are damaged provider modules
  Spill the seeds at our children's feet
  I'm so empty here without you
  I know they want me dead

• Marilyn Manson - Fight Song
• You'll never grow up to be a big-
  rock-star-celebrated-victim-of-your-fame
  They'll just cut our wrists like
  cheap coupons and say that death
  was on sale today

• Nine Inch Nails - The Wretched
• the clouds will part and the sky cracks open
  and god himself will reach his fucking arm through
  just to push you down
  just to hold you down

• Nine Inch Nails - The Great Below
• Ocean pulls me close
  And whispers in my ear
  The destiny I've chose
  All becoming clear
  The currents have their say
  The time is drawing near
  Washes me away
  Makes me disappear
  
  I descend from grace
  In arms of undertow
  I will take my place
  In the great below

• Nine Inch Nails - Love is not Enough
• Hey, the closer we think we are
  Well it only got us so far
  Now you got anything left to show
  No no I didn't think so
  Hey, the sooner we realize
  We cover ourselves with lies
  But underneath we're not so tough
  And love is not enough

• Nine Inch Nails - Sunspots
• Now I just stare into the sun
  And I see everything I've done
  I think I could have been someone
  But I can't stop what has begun
  When everything is said and done
  And there is no place left to run
  I think I used to be someone
  Now I just stare into the sun

• Converge - The Broken Vow
• Those nights we had and the trust we lost
  The sleep that fled me and the heart I lost
  It all reminds me
  Just how callous and heartless the true cowards are
  And I write this for the loveless
  And for the risks we take
  I'll take my love to the grave
  As tired and worn it is
  I'l take my love to the grave

• Converge - Phoenix in Flames
• She burns as bright as the sun
  and she falls darker than night
  She shines as light as these days
  And she fades faster than time
  Phoenix in flames

• Converge - You Fail Me
• you fail me with every fatal crush
  you fail me with every abandoned love
  you fail me with your inferno fuck me eyes
  that burn as fuel for my city and its neon lights

• Bright Eyes - Lets Not Shit Ourselves (To Love and to be Loved)
• And so I've learned to retreat at the first sign of danger.
  I mean, why wait around, if it's just to surrender?
  An ambition, I've found, can lead only to failure.
  I do not read the reviews.
  No, I am not singing for you.

There you have it, some of my favorite lyrics! Perhaps a little boring for you to read, but I had fun so I figured I'd post this.
