Have you ever just wanted to post lyrics that you like, you can relate to, or listening to right now? I know i'm not the only one who gets these impulses to post lyrics, so I decided to make a game.

 

All you have to do is post the lyrics to which ever song you like. if you want you can post why you posted those lyrics too. I'm not sure if there already is a topic like this.. but if there is then i'm really sorry and i'll delete this.

 

 

Sweetness by Jimmy Eat World

 

If you're listening, whoa oh oh oh oh oh

Sing it back, whoa oh oh oh oh oh

String from your tether unwinds

(String from your tether unwinds) whoa oh, whoa oh

Up and outward to bind

(Up and outward to bind) whoa oh, whoa oh

 

I was spinning free, whoa oh oh oh oh oh

With a little sweet and simple numbing me.

 

Are you listening? whoa oh oh oh oh oh

Sing it back, whoa oh oh oh oh oh

So tell me what do I need

(tell me what do I need) whoa oh, whoa oh

When words lose their meaning

(When words lose their meaning) whoa oh, whoa oh

 

I was spinning free, whoa oh oh oh oh oh

With a little sweet and simple numbing me.

Yeah, stumble till you crawl, whoa oh oh oh oh oh

Sinking into sweet uncertainty

 

(Are you listening? Are you listening?)

 

If you're listening, whoa oh oh oh oh oh

If you're listening, are you listening?

Sing it back, whoa oh oh oh oh oh

If you're listening, are you listening?

I'm still running away

(I'm still running away) whoa oh, whoa oh

Won't play your hide and seek game

(your hide and seek game) whoa oh, whoa oh

 

I was spinning free, whoa oh oh oh oh oh

With a little sweet and simple numbing me.

What a dizzy dance, whoa oh oh oh oh oh

This sweetness will not be concerned with me.

No the sweetness will not be concerned with me.

The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot by Brand New

 

If it makes you less sad, I will die by your hand

I hope you find out what you want

I already know what I am

And if it makes you less sad, we'll start talking again

And you can tell me how vile I already know that I am

I'll grow old and start acting my age

I'll be a brand new day in a life that you hate

A crown of gold. A heart that's harder than stone

And it hurts a whole lot, but it's missed when it's gone

 

Call me a safe bet

I'm betting I'm not

I'm glad that you can forgive

I'm only hoping as time goes, you can forget

 

If it makes you less sad, I'll move out of the state

You can keep to yourself, I'll keep out of your way

And if it makes you less sad, I'll take your pictures all down

Every picture you paint, I will paint myself out

It's cold as a tomb, and it's dark in your room

When I sneak to your bed to pour salt in your wounds

So call it quits or get a grip

Say you wanted a solution

You just wanted to be missed

 

Call me a safe bet

I'm betting I'm not

I'm glad that you can forgive

I'm only hoping as time goes, you can forget

You can forget

You can forget

 

You are calm and reposed

Let your beauty unfold

Pale white, like the skin stretched over your bones

Spring keeps you ever close

You are second hand smoke

You are so fragile and thin

Standing trial for your sins

Holding onto yourself the best you can

You are the smell before rain

You are the blood in my veins

 

Call me a safe bet

I'm betting I'm not

I'm glad that you can forgive

I'm only hoping as time goes, you can forget

I chose to post this song because it makes me cry.

 

"Playboy Mommy" by Tori Amos

 

In my platforms I hit the floor

Fell face down

Didn't help my brain out

Then my baby came before I found

The magic how to keep her happy

I never was the fantasy of what you want-wanted me to be

 

But don't judge me so harsh, little girl

So you got a playboy mommy

But when you tell 'em my name

And you want across that bridge all on your own

Little girl, they'll do you no harm 'cause they know your playboy mommy

But when you tell 'em my name

From here to Birmingham, I got a few friends

 

I never was there, was there when it counts

I get my way

You're so like me

You seemed ashamed, ashamed that I was

A good friend of American soldiers

I'll say it loud here by your grave

Those angels can't ever take my place

 

But don't judge me so harsh, little girl

So you got a playboy mommy

But when you tell 'em my name

And you want across that bridge all on your own

Little girl, they'll do you no harm 'cause they know your playboy mommy

But you just tell 'em my name

You tell 'em my name

I got a few friends

 

Somewhere where the orchids grow

I can't find those church bells

That played when you died

Played Gloria

Talkin' 'bout Hosanah

 

But don't judge me so harsh, little girl

You got a playboy mommy

Come home

But when you tell them soldiers my name

And cross that bridge all on your own

Little girl, they'll do you no harm 'cause they know your playboy mommy

 

But I'll be home

I'll be home

To take you in my arms
