The Classic Crime – Seattle Lyrics 18 years ago
This is what I hear. I'm not sure it's right, and it's not that different from what is already there.

I’ve realized that my life is dull
and dried up, like the sound
a voice makes when
the heart goes cold,
and it’s going that way.

I think, I’ll move out of state,
somewhere far from
Seattle’s city lights;
they burn my eyes.
California sounds nice,
but California’s a lie.
Maybe, I’m out of luck,
or maybe, I’m just blind.
Oh, this time.

Rain on my hopes.
Rain on my soul.
Rain on everything that I know.
It feels so ludicrous -
the pursuit of this dream;
we thought we’d be there long ago.

My life is like a rolling river -
so muddy and absurd.
And although I might be mistaken,
I know that I’ll be heard.
And I find,
the second I try to pull away,
I’m thrown back in line.
Oh, this time.

So, rain on my hopes.
Rain on my soul.
Rain on everything that I know.
It feels so ludicrous -
the pursuit of this dream;
we thought we’d be there long ago.

Rain on my house.
Rain on my soul.
Rain on everything that I know.
It feels so ludicrous -
the pursuit of this dream;
we thought we’d be there long ago.

And we are all looking for
the same thing, the same thing.
Seattle is calling me
back home, back home.

So, rain on my hopes.
Rain on my soul.
Rain on everything that I know.
It feels so ludicrous -
the pursuit of this dream;
we thought we’d be there long ago.

Rain on my hopes.
Rain on my soul.
Rain on everything that I know.
It feels so ludicrous -
the pursuit of this dream;
we thought we’d be there long ago.

Lifehouse – I Want (You to Know) Lyrics 18 years ago
I may have a different version, but this is what I hear:

When will the cycle stop?
When will the story end?
This is where I get off.
I can't go there anymore.
It's too hard to ignore the signs.

Where do these tears come from?
It feels like they'll never dry.
What if we both become...
We are strangers in a time
where blood is our only tie.

And I want you to know
that I loved you the most.
And it breaks my heart to see you go.

I wanted to make you proud.
I wanted to see you smile.
But, it wasn't good enough, yeah.

And I want you to know
that I loved you the most.
And it breaks my heart to see you go.

And I want you to know
that I loved you the most.
And it breaks my heart to see you go.

When will the cycle stop?
When will the story end?
This is where I get off...

Unwritten Law – Before I Go Lyrics 19 years ago
Actually, CoffinOfHope, this song is about suicide. Read the lyrics a little more carefully. And if you still don't believe me, if you search, you'll find it listed under "Songs About Suicide" in wikipedia or something like that.

Paramore – Conspiracy Lyrics 19 years ago
This song says a lot to me. I promised to keep this secret, but at the same time I'm not even sure what secret I am keeping.


Please speak softly
for they will hear us
and they'll find out
why we don't trust them

Don't say anything too loudly or say too much because the people you don't want to know might hear you.

Speak up dear
'cause I cannot hear you
I need to know
why we don't trust them

At the same time, speak a little louder/clearer so at least I know what is going on. I need to know why they can't know this secret.

Explain to me
this conspiracy against me, yeah
And tell me how
I lost my power, oh yeah

When the hell did I become responsible for all of this? It's overwhelming, and I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. I have no power because I promised to keep this secret, yet at the same time, telling this secret might be the only way to fix some things.

Where can I turn
'cause I need something more
Surrounded by uncertianty
I'm so unsure of...
Tell me why I feel so alone
'cause I need to know
to whom do I owe

I am so confused as to what to do. Whom do I have a loyalty to? This family? Or one of my best friends? I don't know which person deserves to know.

I thought
you would make it
because you said
that we'd make it through
And when all security fails
you'd be there
to help me through

And this is where it hits home. The son (whom was also one of my best friends) passed away. He's the person I originally promised to keep the secret for. And in return, he promised he'd always be there for me because he knew how hard it was to keep the secret. But now he's not here, and it's even harder.
