I'm tired of having to search through pop-up-filled lyrics sites every time I need to know what people are singing. post them here instead.
they dont have to be your FAVORITE lyrics, or lyrics that "mean something" to you, just lyrics in general. ok?? it would probably help if you said which band & songs they are too

let the products sell themselves
**** advertising, commercial psychology
psychological methods to sell should be destroyed
because of their own blind involvement in their own conditioned minds the unit bonded together morals, ideals, awareness, progress let yourself be heard!

Unwound- Lady Elect
I'm working on a reduction plan.
it's something i just don't understand.
puzzled by the math of it, adding and subtracting me.
i know exactly what i'm trying to do
but explanation makes me a fool.
not afraid to be absurd; i'm just not sure what it's worth.
examination will make it clear
these problems will only reappear.
making science out of it, it's just lacking evidence.
puzzled by the math of it, adding and subtracting me.

That's how it starts
We go back to your house
We check the charts
And start to figure it out
And if it's crowded, all the better
Because we know we're gonna be up late
But if you're worried about the weather
Then you picked the wrong place to stay
That's how it starts
And so it starts
You switch the engine on
We set controls for the heart of the sun
one of the ways we show our age
And if the sun comes up, if the sun comes up, if the sun comes up
And I still don't wanna stagger home
Then it's the memory of our betters
That are keeping us on our feet
You spent the first five years trying to get with the plan
And the next five years trying to be with your friends again
You're talking 45 turns just as fast as you can
Teah, I know it gets tired, but it's better when we pretend
It comes apart
The way it does in bad films
Except in parts
When the moral kicks in
Though when we're running out of the drugs
And the conversation's winding away
I wouldn't trade one stupid decision
For another five years of lies
You drop the first ten years just as fast as you can
And the next ten people who are trying to be polite
When you're blowing eighty-five days in the middle of France
Yeah, I know it gets tired only where are your friends tonight?
And to tell the truth
Oh, this could be the last time
So here we go
Like a sales force into the night
And if I made a fool, if I made a fool, if I made a fool
on the road, there's always this
And if I'm sewn into submission
I can still come home to this
And with a face like a dad and a laughable stand
You can sleep on the plane or review what you said
When you're drunk and the kids leave impossible tasks
You think over and over, "hey, I'm finally dead."
Oh, if the trip and the plan come apart in your hand
Tou look contorted on yourself your ridiculous prop
You forgot what you meant when you read what you said
And you always knew you were tired, but then
Where are your friends tonight?
Where are your friends tonight?
Where are your friends tonight?
If I could see all my friends tonight
If I could see all my friends tonight
If I could see all my friends tonight
If I could see all my friends tonight

Have you seen them?
The words cut open
Your poor intestines
Can't deny
Inky periods drip from your mailbox
Blood flies dip and glide reach down inside
Inside, inside
There's something living in these lies
And when your newest kisser was peaking
You dress yourself out tonight
Getting tangled up in arms and legs
It's comfortable
Someone grabs a hold of you go
Ooo-oo-oooh
Should you go home?
There's something starting don't know why
In a house so cozy
Few words are spoken
Let's take our shoes off
And unwind
And there's minuets off in the background drowning out
Eyes off ears off test the kiss goodnight
Goodnight
Don't keep my loving on my mind
'Cause it's messy, yes, this mess is mine
Well mine is mess, yours, is maybe nine
Look we have similar stitches
Look we have similar frowns
Do the eldery couples still
Kiss and hug and grab their big wrinkly skin so tough wrinkly wrink-wrink-wrinkly rough?
Did you see the words you wrote?
Give me rabies, bring your babies in the hospital
Violent ends with friends that go
Kissed a few with sticky shoes, our cartoon show is broke
Did you see the words you wrote?
Give me rabies, bring your babies in the hospital
Violent ends with friends that go
Kissed a few with sticky shoes our cartoon show is broke

Some day, when I'm awfully low,
When the world is cold,
I will feel a glow just thinking of you...
And the way you look tonight.
Yes you're lovely, with your smile so warm
And your cheeks so soft,
There is nothing for me but to love you,
And the way you look tonight.
With each word your tenderness grows,
Tearing my fear apart...
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose,
It touches my foolish heart.
Lovely ... Never, ever change.
Keep that breathless charm.
Won't you please arrange it ?
'Cause I love you ... Just the way you look tonight.
Mm, Mm, Mm, Mm,
Just the way you look to-night.

Home from school and here to stay
I'll take it easy again today
Ain't gonna work, don't need no pay

**** Off
My mom don't like the way I live
She says I take but I don't give
My dad can't stand the way I am
He says, "Damn it, just get up man"
Couch Slouch
You Suck
Awaken now and then to eat and ****
Don't go outside 'cause I don't fit
Society's not ready for me
Crazy assholes never will be
You think your real cool
Starting fights at school
And writing stupid lines like "Anarchy Rules"
You don't even know what anarchy is
You never will and you never did
You're a closet punk
You closet punk
If your mother only knew you wear bandannas and boots
Of you traded your tennis racket
For a camouflage jacket
Those wrap around glasses make you look like a faggot
You've got a Mohawk that you comb down in the day
When you're at work or when you're out at play
You're at work or when you're out at play
You're in this just for fun
You're a closet punk
You closet punk
Stay in the closet where you belong
Stay in the closet where you've been all along
You're the hidden one
You're in this just for fun
You're a closet punk
You're a closet punk
You closet punk

The Cribs "Our Bovine Public"
D'you think I'd have to choose?
D'you think I'd wear brown shoes?
D'you think that I'd ever have to read about this in the news?
You're gonna have a go?
Well I don't want to know
I just thought that I should try and say hello
To those who'd never exist
without being generic
You'll have to impress
Our bovine public
You'd never exist
if you wasn't generic
You'll have to impress
Our bovine public
I'll never forget how all this begun
And I will never regret a thing I have done
But you would never exist without us.
So maybe I do not have the time
Fair-weather friends of mine
A year's a long time to be doing nothing with your life
I heard you felt alert
Well I'm hoping that it hurt
You seem to spend too much time in groundwork to be ground into the dirt
By those who'd never exist
without being generic
You'll have to impress
Our bovine public
You'd never exist
if you wasn't generic
You'll have to impress
Our bovine public
I'll never forget how all this begun
And I will never regret a thing I have done
But you would never exist without us.
You say nothing
So you will always mean nothing to me
And if what you say means nothing
Then what you say will always mean nothing to me
D'you think I'd have the time
Fair-weather friends of mine
A year's a long time to be doing nothing with your life
I heard you felt alert
Well I'm hoping that it hurt
You seem to spend too much time in groundwork to be ground into the dirt
By those who'd never exist
without being generic
You'll have to impress
Our bovine public
You'd never exist
if you wasn't generic
You'll have to impress
Our bovine public
I'll never forget how all this begun
And I would never regret the one thing I've done
But you would never exist without us
So maybe I do

I`m clicking your fingers for a gothic twilight
that actually existed just in your head
your fingernails painted black
or bloodred
I forget
And your fake-leather volumes
jabbering on hell
manifest decadence was what you hoped to exhail
your eyes tried so hard to glitter
A star-snuffing black
so you opened your books
and you opened your legs
and so opened your heart
and let in the badness
you claimed
as your friend
with un-angels hovering
like flies round the orchard
that had covered your soul
their empire increasing
and your country
deserted by yourself
The bells of St. Mary call us to remember
that life is with end
and the gestures can kill us
moreover destroy
and there is one jugdement only
Your letters came daily
in French or in German
but they meant to me nothing
I caught the slow cords
and dry ice fogging your mind
I see all too clearly now
why you should be discarded
and though I could pray for you
I probably shan`t
having had my cup filled up
with your lies
and your makeup
you were nothing
thinking you`re something
And nonetheless I still write this gothic lovesong
a sign to myself
and the memory of my past
I still write this gothic lovesong
and the memory of my past
and a way to shut out your face

There is a house built out of stone
Wooden floors, walls and window sills
Tables and chairs worn by all of the dust
This is a place where I don't feel alone
This is a place where I feel at home
And I built a home
For you
For me
Until it disappeared
From me
From you
And now, it's time to leave and turn to dust
Out in the garden where we planted the seeds
There is a tree as old as me
Branches were sewn by the color of green
Ground had arose and passed it's knees
By the cracks of the skin I climbed to the top
I climbed the tree to see the world
When the gusts came around to blow me down
I held on as tightly as you held onto me
I held on as tightly as you held onto me
And I built a home
For you
For me
Until it disappeared
From me
From you
And now, it's time to leave and turn to dust
Thanks

All the streets are crammed with things
Eager to be held
I know what hands are for
And i'd like to help myself
You ask me the time
But i sense something more
And i would like to give
What i think you're asking for
You handsome devil
Oh, you handsome devil
There was dirt in your mouth
On the day we put you down
There was blood on your teeth
Like you were born to the ground
I held your head
As water filled your mouth
When the branches scratched your eyes
When the land began to flood
This is my body dear that I've kept inside you
And that you'll keep if you want to
Here is what's left of what I have taken from yours
Tonight the bells will cry
This doesn't scare you
It could if you want to
We can run through the yard
We can swim out in the swamp
I cleaned your face
And covered you in stones
There was so much water there
A hundred miles to make your own
A butcher's boy
Can make his song your tomb
The prettiest girls
Should always plan theirs for two
sorry that
i could never love you back
i could never care enough
in these last days
her tears fell
on her pages
found me well on her words
i don't know what to do or say
wading through
warm canals and pools clear blue
Tuscarawas flow into
the great lake
riding
back where the highway met dead tracks
ground and now cement and glass
so far away
heal her soul
and carry her, my angel
ohio
green green green
what about the sweetness we knew
what about what's good, what's true
from those days
can't count
to all the lovers i've burned through
so why do i still burn for you
i can't say
sorry that
i could never love you back
i could never care enough
in these last days
heal her soul
and carry her, my angel
ohio
children blessed
gather round the home she rests
so poor and cold in their midwest
moon and sun
flashes bringing on
my open eyes to lightning storm
the touch of mist felt soft, felt warm
on my face
graven dreams
a million miles ago you seem
the star that i just don't see
anymore
words long gone
lost on journeys we walked on
lost her voice is heard along
the way
sorry for
never going by your door
never feeling love like that
anymore
heal her soul
and carry her, my angel
ohio

Well, it’s a long, long time
From May to December
But the days grow short,
When you reach September.
And the autumn weather
Turns the leaves to gray
And I haven’t got time
For the waiting game.
And the days dwindle down
To a precious few
September, November
And these few precious days
I spend with you.
These precious days
I spend with you.

For one [more poor boy?], there's someone
For he for she
For one [more poor boy?], there's someone
For him, for me
Your eyes resemble mine, see as no others can
Here inherit my kingdom , speak other people's plan
I'll be here for my baby, for my baby I'll be near
So many things I need to tell you, things you need to hear
So this is the aftermath
Your eyes resemble mine, you see as no others can
Here inherit my kingdom, speak other people's plan
I'll be here for my baby, for my baby I'll be near
So many things I need to tell you
For one [more poor boy?], there's someone
For he, for she
For one [more poor boy?], there's someone
For him, for me
Let me tell you about my mother
For one more...
Your eyes resemble mine...
How can I be sure
In a world that's constantly changing
How can I be sure
Just when I thought I was winning
Just when I thought I could not be stopped
Just when I thought I was winning
Just when I thought I could not be stopped
How can I be sure

Chocolate Rain
Some stay dry and others feel the pain
Chocolate Rain
A baby born will die before the sin
Chocolate Rain
The school books say it can't be here again
Chocolate Rain
The prisons make you wonder where it went
Chocolate Rain
Build a tent and say the world is dry
Chocolate Rain
Zoom the camera out and see the lie
Chocolate Rain
Forecast to be falling yesterday
Chocolate Rain
Only in the past is what they say
Chocolate Rain
Raised your neighborhood insurance rates
Chocolate Rain
Makes us happy 'livin in a gate
Chocolate Rain
Made me cross the street the other day
Chocolate Rain
Made you turn your head the other way
(Chorus)
Chocolate Rain
History quickly crashing through your veins
Chocolate Rain
Using you to fall back down again
[Repeat]
Chocolate Rain
Seldom mentioned on the radio
Chocolate Rain
Its the fear your leaders call control
Chocolate Rain
Worse than swearing worse than calling names
Chocolate Rain
Say it publicly and you're insane
Chocolate Rain
No one wants to hear about it now
Chocolate Rain
Wish real hard it goes away somehow
Chocolate Rain
Makes the best of friends begin to fight
Chocolate Rain
But did they know each other in the light?
Chocolate Rain
Every February washed away
Chocolate Rain
Stays behind as colors celebrate
Chocolate Rain
The same crime has a higher price to pay
chocolate Rain
The judge and jury swear it's not the face
(Chorus)
Chocolate Rain
Dirty secrets of economy
Chocolate Rain
Turns that body into GDP
Chocolate Rain
The bell curve blames the baby's DNA
Chocolate Rain
But test scores are how much the parents make
Chocolate Rain
'Flippin cars in France the other night
Chocolate Rain
Cleans the sewers out beneath Mumbai
Chocolate Rain
'Cross the world and back its all the same
Chocolate Rain
Angels cry and shake their heads in shame
Chocolate Rain
Lifts the ark of paradise in sin
Chocolate Rain
Which part do you think you're 'livin in?
Chocolate Rain
More than 'marchin more than passing law
Chocolate Rain
Remake how we got to where we are

Go back to those gold sounds
And keep my advent to yourself
Because it's nothing I don't like
Is it a crisis or a boring change
When it's central, so essential,
It has a nice ring when you laugh
At the low life opinions
And they're coming to the chorus now
I keep my address to yourself 'cause we need secrets
We need secrets -crets -crets -crets -crets -crets back right now
Because I never wanna make you feel
That you're social
Never ignorant soul
Believe in what you wanna do
And do you think that is a major flaw
When they rise up in the falling rain
And if you stay around with your knuckles ground down
The trial's over, weapon's found
Keep my address to myself because it's secret
'Cause it's secret -cret -cret -cret -cret -cret -cret -cret -cret -cret -cret -cret -cret -cret back right now
So drunk in the August sun
And you're the kind of girl I like
Because you're empty and I'm empty
And you can never quarantine the past
Did you remember in December
That I won't need you when I'm gone
And if I go there, I won't stay there
Because I'm sitting here too long
I've been sitting here too long
And I've been wasted
Advocating that word for the last word
Last words come up all you've got to waste
^Those are definitely some of Pavement's best lyrics and one of their best songs.
The Microphones-The Moon
I drove up to the city at night and found the place
Where you grew up and then where you stayed
And we walked around and stayed up late under city lights
I spent the night, next to you in the house where you grew up
Next to you I miraculously woke up
In your parents' house I laid in bed with you
I went back to feel alone there
I went back to wipe it clean
I took the lights and radio towers out of my dreams
And we went all the way up to the small town where I'm from
With foggy air and the wind and the mountain top
And we clung to rocks and looked off and you held my hand
You almost got to start feeling me
I finally felt like I was breathing free
Under swaying trees we fell asleep and we had the same dream
The stars were bright, we dream the same every night
On my island home I spent some time with you
I went back to feel alone there
I went back there by myself
I gave up on everything that we'd felt
We found a precious place in the sand right out in the wind
And we laid under a blanket and heard the furious sound
The roar of waves, the pounding surf, two bodies on the earth
It was intense just getting to be there next to you
And you trying to get me then, and I was happy to let you in
I went back and wished I hadn't
I went back and felt regret
I went to the beach and I stared west
Every night when the sun went down in the town where we lived
The empty streets were lit up by reflected light from a distant sun
Bouncing off a glowing ball of rock and we just laid on the roof
And watched the moon, the moon, the blue light of the moon
We didn't talk and silently we both felt powerful
And, like the moon, my chest was full because we both knew
We're just floating in space over molten rock
And we felt safe and we discovered that our skin is soft
There's nothing left except certain death
And that was comforting at night out under the moon
I went out last night to forget that
I went out and stared it down
But the moon stared back at me
And in it's light I saw my two feet on the ground

I'll be your mirror
Reflect what you are, in case you don't know
I'll be the wind, the rain and the sunset
The light on your door to show that you're home
When you think the night has seen your mind
That inside you're twisted and unkind
Let me stand to show that you are blind
Please put down your hands
'Cause I see you
I find it hard to believe you don't know
The beauty you are
But if you don't let me be your eyes
A hand in your darkness, so you won't be afraid
When you think the night has seen your mind
That inside you're twisted and unkind
Let me stand to show that you are blind
Please put down your hands
'Cause I see you
I'll be your mirror
(reflect what you are)

Somebody gotta save my soul
Baby detonate for me
Look out honey, cause Im using technology
Aint got time to make no apology
Soul radiation in the dead of night
Love in the middle of a fire fight
Honey gotta strike me blind
Somebody gotta save my soul
Baby penerate my mind
And Im the worlds forgotten boy
The one whos searchin, searchin to destroy
And honey Im the worlds forgotten boyt
The one whos searchin, searchin to destroy

I'd be hanging on their words
Like they almost meant a thing
And the only lullaby I heard
The sirens blaring, singing me to sleep
Holding my loved one tight...
On the softness of her laugh,
I could almost make my bed
But the racket of her absence draw in
The sirens blaring, ringing in my head
Holding nothing tight, holding nothing tight
With my eyes so wide
In a house without a back door
I was looking for a fire escape
And I'll be ripping up the floorboards
Just trying to get away
From this sleeplessness,
Sleeplessness, sleeplessness
She'd be hanging on my words
Like I almost meant a thing
And I'd give anything not to let her down
But finally sleep through just one more tonight
Holding her so tight, holding her so tight
But my eyes are wide
In a house without a back door
I was looking for a fire escape
And I'll be ripping up the floorboards
Just trying to get away
From this sleeplessness,
Sleeplessness, sleeplessness
'Cause my mind just can't stop moving, I think I know why
Oooh, I know why
It's sad, but I'm a sucker for a kind word
And I'll just hurt until I find one
I'll just hurt until I find one
And I've been trying all the windows
And I've been running up the staircase
In a house without a back door...
Sleeplessness, sleeplessness, sleeplessness
In a house without a back door (Sleeplessness)
I was looking for a fire escape (Sleeplessness)
And I'd be ripping up the floorboards (Sleeplessness)
Just trying to get away...

Thief - Our Lady Peace
I don't want to understand this horror
There's a weight in your eyes, I can't admit
Everybody ends up here in bottles
But the name tags the last thing you wanted
As the world explodes we fall out of it
And we can't let go because this
Will not go away
There's a house built out in space
And I can't see that thief that lives inside of your head
But I can be some courage at the side of your bed
And I don't know what's happening and I can't pretend
But I can be your, be your
Someone help us understand who ordered
This disgusting arrangement with time and the end
I don't want to hear who walked on water
Cause the hallways are empty, clocks tick
As the world implodes
We fall into it
And we can't go home because this will not go away
There's a house built out in space
And I can't see that thief that lives inside of your head
But I can be some courage at the side of your bed
And I don't know what's happening and I can't pretend
It's a long, long getaway, it's a long, long getaway
Make it home again
Make it home again
It's a long, long getaway, it's a long, long getaway
And I can't see that thief that lives inside of your head
But I can be some courage at the side of your bed
And I don't know what's happening and I can't pretend
But I can be your, be your
I'm here
and I can be your, be your
I'm here
It's a long, long getaway
