Hands Like Houses – Spineless Crow Lyrics 12 years ago
This song reminds me a lot of "Inception."

Streets, these visions, an origami city folding in.
Construction, creation, we are architects and kings
- The scene where Cobb is teaching Ariadne to manipulate the dream world and she folds the city like origami

We were young together, but I’ve grown ancient.
- Saito and Cobb say several times "We were young once. We can be young me again." Saito is lost in Limbo and becomes an old man.

Cracked and weathered and filled with regret
- Saito also asks Cobb, "Do you want to rejoin your family or die alone, an old man filled with regret?"

Locked away, a dream-dweller pale from hiding with secrets
Deeper than daylight dares to seek.
Come out, emerge!
Hands to our eyes, overexposed for all we are.
- Again, Saito lost in Limbo, where he can't escape.

Doubt is a plague.
- Doubt is what Cobb put in Mal's mind that caused her to kill herself and frame Cobb. Doubt that reality was real. In the movie, an idea is describe "like a virus."

When all their eyes are tied to me, just carry the conversation please.
- The scene where Ariadne draws the attention of Cobb's subconscious. She's talking and everybody is looking at the two of them with extreme suspicion.

We were young, sandcastle kings building empires, cities and homes.
Architects tangled up in our sleep.
- Pretty much a summation of Mal's Cobb's dynamic. Again, "We were young, once." In the Limbo, they were able to construct their own realities. They built a city on a beach. They spent too long there and eventually became convinced that it was real.

Wake up.
- The only way to escape Limbo and the dream world in general.

Alesana – A Gilded Masquerade Lyrics 13 years ago
Some lyrics are still wrong:

"Right before my eyes, such a big surprise..."
should be...
"Right before my eyes, a tragic surprise..."

"And your body is a masquerade..."
should be...
"And I saw beyond your masquerade..."

"Who shall be made clear?"
should be...
"All shall be made clear"

Almost the entire part after that is wrong as well...
It should be...

(We've been watching you, wanderer)
My blood runs cold
(There's no need to run furthur)
I fear I know the truth
(Come into our arms, brother)
I tear back the cowl and stare into my own eyes
(Now we can be one forever)
Who are you?
Who are you?
Who are you?

Protest the Hero – Dunsel Lyrics 14 years ago
Album's out...here are the correct lyrics from the booklet:

And when the underworld's best kept secret
Saw it's own reflection
I knew things had finally changed
For better or worse
Whatever, as always

When the mid-life fires start to burn
And burned down our one protection
I won't take pictures from their frame
Whatever, as always

When the hands that sold me everything
Slapped a price tag on my chest
I bit my tongue and shut my mouth
And tried to blend in with the rest
But I'm a square ped, I'm a sore thumb

And it seems to me this apathy
Kills the life in artistry
And leaves us ankle deep in industry

All those songs sound so damn good
Even if their meaning's hollow
But hollow words dry out your mouth
You might find it hard to swallow
All the shit that we keep feeding
To keep ourselves and you believing
Than no money could change us
Then a door opens up and some devil persuades us

The songs we sung
When we were just young
Have all lost their meaning
But there's still a few things that we keep on believing

Shitty music just ain't worth makin'
Smiles and thank-yous just ain't worth fakin'
Some assholes' hands just ain't worth shakin'
And if it ain't broken, we need to break it

There's no such thing as unconditional
Though contracts bind you in the end
Make no mistake, this is a killing ground
Blood-hungry and camoflaged as friends
Select 'yes' at the end of this mess
If you get there
And it's your only fucking 'option' left

These days, I don't know the people I'm supposed to trust
And I don't trust these people that I'm supposed to know
The handlebars on my dreams slowly start to rust
They'll take everything and somehow you still owe
As the cocaine cowboys finally get their wings and sell them all for blow

I make music for myself
Not for hat-tips from the upper-tier and their undeserved wealth
Here's to their failing fucking health

I don't mean this in a hateful way
But when the people you love start walking away
The walls get tighter each and every day
You better take your last bite before it crumbles away
And there's something inside me I just have to say
Love nothing, trust no one
Just live for the motherfucking day

Protest the Hero – Dunsel Lyrics 14 years ago
Really good on most of these, except for #8. It's not "hand jobs" it's "hat-tips." Funny though... and as for the last word of number 6, it's "owe," as in "they'll take everything and somehow you still owe."

Avenged Sevenfold – Victim Lyrics 15 years ago
House full of roses, a letter on the stairs
A tape full of messages for anyone who cares
Collage of broken words and stories full of tears
Remembering your life 'cause we wish that you were here

Nothing is harder than to wake up all alone
Realize it's not okay, it's the end of all you know
Time keeps passing by, but it seems I'm frozen still
Scars are left behind, but some too deep to feel

And some say this can't be real
And I've lost my power to feel tonight
We're all just victims of a crime
When all's gone and can't be regained
We can't seem to shelter the pain inside
We're all just victims of a crime

Some days you'll find me in the place I like to go
Ask questions to myself 'bout the things I'll never know
What's left to find 'cause I need a little more
I need a little time, can we even up the score?

And some say this can't be real
And I've lost my power to feel tonight
We're all just victims of a crime
When all's gone and can't be regained
We can't seem to shelter the pain inside
We're all just victims of a crime

And nothing lasts forever
For all good days it's true
I'd rather trade it all
While somehow saving you
And must have been the season
That threw us out of line
Once I stood so tall
Now I'm searching for a sign

So don't need your salvation
With promises unkind
And all those the speculations
Save it for another time
'Cause we don't need a reason
A reason just to stay
Some just can't be bothered
To stick around another day

And some say this can't be real
And I've lost my power to feel tonight
We're all been victims of a crime
When all's gone and can't be regained
We can't seem to shelter the pain inside
We're all been victims of a crime

Victims of a crime
Living with this crime

I'm missing you (x4)

Avenged Sevenfold – So Far Away Lyrics 15 years ago
Never feared for anything
Never shamed, but never free
A light that healed the broken heart
With all that it could
Lived a life so endlessly
Saw beyond what others see
I tried to heal your broken heart
With all that I could
Will you stay?
Will you stay away forever?

How do I live without the ones I love?
Time still turns the pages of the book its burned
Place and time always on my mind
I have so much to say but you're so far away

Plans of what our futures hold
Foolish lies of growing old
It seems we're so invincible
The truth is so cold
A final song, a last request
A perfect chapter laid to rest
Now and then I try to find a place in my mind
Where you can stay
You can stay awake forever

How do I live without the ones I love?
Time still turns the pages of the book its burned
Place time always on my mind
I have so much to say but you're so far away

Sleep tight, I'm not afraid
The ones that we love are here with me
Lay away a place for me
Cause as soon as I�m done I�ll be on my way
To live eternally

How do I live without the ones I love?
Time still turns the pages of the book its burned
Place and time always on my mind
And the light you left remains but it�s so hard to stay
When I have so much to say and you�re so far away

I love you, you were ready
The pain is strong and urges rise
But I see you when it lets me
Your pain is gone, your hands untied

So far away
And I need you to know
So far away
And I need you to
Need you to know

Avenged Sevenfold – Natural Born Killer Lyrics 15 years ago
Close...

One snap for the dying
One click to end the day
Another story with a mangled scene
It couldn't happen any other way

You wanna talk about it?
I'm begging you to walk in my shoes any time
Watch the clock 'til you unwind
You wanna cry about it?
It's making me consider that I've lost my mind
The way I see, you must be blind

So this is the world you left behind
This is the guilt that consumes you

So die alone
This is the one thing that I won't do
So say your prayers
'Cause I ain't leaving here without you

Can't bribe me with money
Can't shower me with shame
Another killer from a broken home
Until you coverd me with manic fame

You wanna know about it?
Well I'mma be fucking with you every time
Story broke and you're behind
And when you ask about it?
You can rest assured I'll give you my best side
Seems we all have friends to find

So this is the hate I've been born to
Full are the tales of the untrue

So die alone
This is the one thing that I won't do
So say your prayers
'Cause I ain't leaving here without you

And I'm waiting
Waiting for the days to slowly pass me by
(And all the promises I'll find)
No hesitating
You've pulled the trigger and your story's left behind
I know you want to see me fry
Like my soul, you won't survive

So die alone
This is the one thing that I won't do
So say your prayers
'Cause I ain't leaving here without you

To die unknown
Would crush the fish lens we all see through
To kill the glare
Expose the ungliness we hold true

Fear Before – Get Your Life Together Lyrics 15 years ago
We pounded on the walls endlessly
It's time to set our roots in soil
We're up on our hind legs
On top of the food chain
We're growing everyday

Born t the earth, we will multiply

(I will be back - to save you)

(Why are we still here?)
We're reaching for the sky now
Stretching out our limbs
(We know what we want and we're gonna get it)
To the birds, to the clouds
(Today, today, today)
To the people who cut us down
(We're a multitude)
We're building mountains high here
(We know what we want and we're gonna get it)
Today, today, today

We pounded on the walls endlessly
It's time to set our roots in soil
I've still got my eyeballs
Ten fingers and toes
Born to the earth, we will multiply
I still have my eyeballs
Ten fingers and toes

Beautiful light and images emit from the ground
We plant our smiles and our eyes glance to the sky
We feel clear for the very first time
We shed your ill will from our skin
We shed your ill will from our skin
I wonder
We still wonder

(Why are we still here?)
We're reaching for the sky now
Stretching out our limbs
(We know what we want and we're gonna get it)
To the birds, to the clouds
(Today, today, today)
To the people who cut us down
(We're a multitude)
We're building mountains high here
(We know what we want and we're gonna get it)
Today, today, today

To the people who cut us down
(We're a multitude)
Your lives will pass by here
(We know what we want and we're gonna get it)
Today, today, today

Oh, my friend, we're spinning in space
And no one seems to care
And I think that's fucked up
It seems as though I've lost it all
But I've still got my eyeballs
Ten fingers and toes

Bleeding Through – Oedipus Complex Lyrics 17 years ago
Well, if you consider the meanings of an "Oedipus Complex," it offers a whole new meaning to the song.

In psychology, the Oedipus Complex is the idea that, between the ages of 3 and 6, young boys develop a sexual attraction towards their mothers and a deep rival hatred towards their fathers...

So...yeah.

Children of Bodom – Sixpounder Lyrics 19 years ago
Can you say what you can do?
Eternity of the eyes
The breaking point's getting nearer
The warring has just begun

Well, let me show you a battle
We're from the path of hate
Whatever it takes to bring you down
Light the spark, this is our countdown
War

I refuse to be brought down by you
Praise is far away from what you do
Not only are you cranking on my reign
I'm made to blow you away
666...(pounder)

(Hey)
Wanna sleep another time?
A time we'll never end
It'll be too late for you
Once you try to persuade me mercy

Load the sixpounder

Can you say what you can do?
Eternity of the eyes
Whatever it takes to bring you down
Light the spark, this is our countdown
War
War

I refuse to be brought down by you
Praise is far away from what you do
Not only are you cranking on my wreign
I'm made to blow you away
666
