Slipknot – Killpop Lyrics | 9 years ago |
This song can be interpreted in 2 ways: literally and metaphorically. If interpreted literally it's about the narrator/singer being infatuated by something a thing of beauty, in this case a woman, yet he is unable to coexist with this person as he can't bare seeing this person destroy herself. Corey said in an interview that metaphorically the song is about the music industry as a whole. The environment has become toxic and although he loves creating music he can't stand to see the industry destroy itself as it's all about the money and not about the artist or creativity anymore. |
Queens of the Stone Age – ...Like Clockwork Lyrics | 10 years ago |
100% correct lyrics from the ...Like Clockwork LP: Everyone it seems, has somewhere to go And the faster the world spins, the shorter the lights will glow And I'm swimming in the night, chasing down the moon The deeper in the water, the more I long for you Most of what you see my dear is purely for show Because… Not everything that goes around comes back around you know? Holding on too long is just the fear of letting go Because… Not everything that goes around comes back around you know? One thing is clear: It's all down hill from here The love line in your hand, cleverly disguised All the promises of stone, crumble in the night Most of what you see my dear is worth letting go Because… Not everything that goes around comes back around you know? Holding on too long is just the fear of what to show Because… Not everything that goes around comes back around you know? One thing is clear It's all downhill from here |
Queens of the Stone Age – I Appear Missing Lyrics | 10 years ago |
100% correct lyrics from the ...Like Clockwork LP: Calling all comas, prisoner on the loose Description: A spitting image of me, except for the heart-shaped hole where the hope runs out Shock me awake, tear me apart Pinned like a note inside a hospital gown A prison of sleep, further down The rabbit hole never to be found Again… Where are you hiding my love? Cast off like a stone Feeling, raw & exposed when I'm outta control Pieces were stolen from me or dare I say given away Watching the water give in as I go down the drain I appear missing now I go missing, no longer exist One day, I hope, I'm someone you'd miss Shock me awake, tear me apart Pinned like a note inside a hospital gown A prison of sleep, further down The rabbit hole never to be found It's only falling in love because you hit the ground Dancing on wire, both ends are on fire Cut me loose Nowhere to run, no more room to pretend Wandering along the road in the summer night I go missing, no longer exist One day, I hope, I'm someone you'd miss Shock me awake, tear me apart Pinned like a note inside a hospital gown A prison of sleep, further down The rabbit hole never to be found Don't cry- With my toes on the edge it's such a lovely view Inside- I never loved anything until I loved you Confide- I'm over the edge, what can I do? ... - I never had anything until I had you I've fallen through... |
Queens of the Stone Age – Fairweather Friends Lyrics | 10 years ago |
100% correct lyrics from the ...Like Clockwork LP: Is there anyone out there? Or am I just walking alone? When I turned around and found that you'd gone before the first rain could fall It seems every single time I was bleeding Broken promises that never came true It ain't so long before the dawn When the sun is gone so are you So what's it gonna take to get you back in bed? Gossips, frauds and snakes They're just our best fair-weather friends One day when we're far away from everything that hurts Drink wine and screw is all we do everyday So what's it gonna take to get you back in bed? Gossips, frauds and snakes They're just our best fair-weather friends You know the hour's late Don't let 'em in your head I'm gonna pray for rain again & again Fairweather friends Goodbye blue sky |

100% correct lyrics from the ...Like Clockwork LP: I want God to come And take me home Cause I'm all alone in this crowd Who are you to me? Who'm I sposed to be? Not exactly sure anymore Where's this going to? Can I follow through? Or just follow you for a while? Does anyone ever get this right? I feel no love Ain't no confusion here It is as I feared The illusion that you feel is real To be vulnerable is needed most of all If you intend to truly fall apart You think the worst of all is far behind The vampyre of time & memories has died I survived I speak, I breathe I'm incomplete I'm alive. Hooray You're wrong again Cause I feel no love Does anyone ever get this right? I feel no love |
Queens of the Stone Age – I Sat By The Ocean Lyrics | 10 years ago |
100% correct lyrics from the ...Like Clockwork LP: I sat by the ocean and drank a potion to erase you Face down in the boulevard, yet I couldn't face you There ain't no use in crying, I doesn't change anything, so what good does it do? Your friends they all sympathize Maybe, I don't need them too Imagine I'd be your one and only Instead I'm the lonely one You, me and a lie Silence is closer We're passing ships in the night There's nowhere to run away Said, "Boy if you want love, you'll have to go and find it with someone new" "Do you know who you really are? Are you sure it's really you?" Lies are a funny thing They slip through you fingertips because it never happened to you Time wounds all the heals as we fade out of view Imagine I'd be your one and only Instead I'm the lonely one You, me and a lie Silence is closer We're passing ships in the night End to the night, left with nowhere to hide Closer… And closer… We're crashing ships in the night |
Queens of the Stone Age – Keep Your Eyes Peeled Lyrics | 10 years ago |
100% correct lyrics from the ...Like Clockwork LP: Don't look, just keep your eyes peeled Thoughtless, traipsing my mind's field Shotgun, never behind the wheel anymore Danger, monsters of smoke and mirror Slowly, can one so lost be found? And I know you will never believe I play it as though I'm alright If life is but a dream, then Wake me up Fallen leaves realise they are no friend of autumn The view from hell is blue sky So ominously blue I daydream until all the blue is gone And I know you will never believe I play it as though I'm alright If life is but a dream, then Wake me Underwater is another life Disregarding every myth we write Rag doll churning Over and over, gasping in horror So breathless you surface And just as the next wave is… Big smile, really a show of teeth Without a care in the world of fear Lonely, you don't know how I feel Praise God, nothing is as it seems |
Queens of the Stone Age – Kalopsia Lyrics | 10 years ago |
Correct lyrics from the ...Like Clockwork Double LP: I never lie To myself Tonight Rose tinted eyes Colour my sorrow a shade of wine Bye bye black balloon I'll see ya real soon Wave bye bye Bye bye... Oh why you so sad? What have they done? Forget those mindless baboons, they're off playing God Copy cats in cheap suits are playing it safe While cannibals of bad news consume the parade Is it wonderful? Far, far from shore-sure The land of nightmares, gone... Forever more I love you more than I can control I don't even try. Why would I? Oh why the long face? You've got it all wrong Forget the rat in the race, we'll choke chain them all Fates favor the ones who help themselves The rest feel the sting of the lash as they row... …The boat to hell Row. |

Correct lyrics from the ...Like Clockwork Double LP: It's all in motion, ain't no stopping it now I got nothing to lose & only one way, up I'm burning bridges, I destroy the mirage All visions of collisions, fuckin' bon voyage It's all smooth sailing from here on out I got: bruises & hickies, stitches & scars Got my own theme music, plays wherever I are Fear is the hand that pulls your strings A useless toy, pitiful plaything I'm in flagrante, in every way, every day It's all smooth sailing from here on out I'm gonna do the damage that needs getting done God only knows one long vacation If reason is priceless, there's no reason to pay for it It's so easy to see, yet so hard to find Make a mountain of a mole hill, if the mole hill is mine I hypnotize you, ignore you, then defy you I blow my load over the status quo... oh... here we go I'm a little bit nonchalant when I dance I risk it all-ways, no second chance, that's why it's gotta be It's gonna be smooth sailing from here on out I'm gonna do the damage 'til the damage is done God only knows, so mind your behaviour Follow prescriptions of your loaded saviour Every temple needs gold, every hook needs to shine Headaches at the temple of the closed mind It's all smooth sailing from here on out Shut up Pow! |

Queens of the Stone Age – If I Had A Tail Lyrics | 10 years ago |
Correct lyrics taken from the ...Like Clockwork Double LP: Gitchy, gitchy Oo la la Da doo run run You wont get far I'm machine I'm obsolete The land of the free Lobotomy I wanna suck I wanna lick I wanna cry I wanna spit Tears of pleasure Tears of pain They trickle down your face the same It's how you look Not how you feel A city of glass with no heart If I had a tail I'd own the night If I had a tail I'd swat the flies Gitchy, gitchy Oo la la Da doo run run You won't get far Animals in the midnight zone When you own the world, you're always home Get your hands dirty, roll up them sleeves Brainwashed or true believers? Buy flash cars Diamond rings Expensive holes to bury things I'm machine, obsolete In the land of the free Immortality If I had a tail I'd own the night If I had a tail I'd swat the flies See me dance along the scars? See me dance? |
