Plumb - Boys don't cry! Holy Potatoes that is a good song!

You're taking up my time

Don't have the courage inside me

To tell you please just let me be

Communication, telephonic invasion

I'm planning my escape...

Jessica

Adia I'm empty since you left me...

[cattwoman98111]

OK, ok, ok, i tried to let someone else get this one, but alas i could not hold off any longer.





Spiderwebs - No Doubt





ok here we go,







And I'm sucked in by the wonder and I'm fucked up by the lies

And I dig a hole to lie in and I build some wings to fly

And I think that I could love you 'cause you know how to be free

Heather Nova, "Walk This World"



Here's one for my, baby.



Just when I believed I couldn't ever want for more

This ever changing world pushes me through another door

I saw you smile

And my mind could not erase the beauty of your face

Just for a while

Won't you let me shelter you

Richard Marx - Hold onto the Nights. Love late 80's.

Oh my life is changing everyday

In every possible way

And oh my dreams

It's never quite as it seems

'cause you're a dream to me

Dream to me

Cranberries - Dreams



Take a look at my heart

It's so empty and dark

Have a listen to my soul

It's so quiet and cold"

Solar Red - by velcra



Like strawberry wine and seventeen

The hot july moon saw everything

My first taste of love oh bittersweet

Green on the vine

Like strawberry wine

Strawberry Wine by Deana Carter



When in the springtime of the year

When the trees are crowned with leaves

When the ash and oak, and the birch and yew

Are dressed in ribbons fair

The Mummers' Dance

By Loreena McKennitt



"If you could only see, the way

She loves me.

Then maybe you would understand,

Why I feel this way, about our love.

And what I must do."

[Jennpurr]

Tonic, "If You Could Only See"



We cannot separate

'Cause You're part of me

And though You're invisible

I'll trust the unseen

And the East meets the West

When the new moon rises

And we're put to the test

[cattwoman98111]

Hello She Bopp and welcome to the Music Trivia Thread!



To catch you up on how this works let me hit the high points for you, 1st someone posts lyrics to a song and the next person guesses the artist and song. Then they can post their choice of lyrics. Sounds easy, but that is not always the case. In order to get it all to work out correctly I will give you the answer to gaurdian146’s song lyrics and use your lyrics as the next one.



So here we go



Avondale - Yellowcard



And here is She Bopp's





i want to go on a mountain top with a radio and good batteries

Democracy consists of choosing your dictators, after they've told you what you think it is you want to hear.

Closing Time- Semisonic?

Who keeps on saying,

that he still wants you,

after you're through running round?

God Will by Lyle Lovett



I've seen you hanging round

This darkness where I'm bound

And this black hole I've dug for me

And silently within

With hands touching skin

The shock breaks my disease

And I can breathe

Fuel, "Falls On Me"



The slump by the courthouse

With windburn skin

That man could give a fuck

About the grin on your face

As you walk by, randy as a goat

He's sleepin on papers

When he'd be warm in your coat

Extraordinary, by Liz Phair



I love that song



Can we start over,

I want to be new,

If we could start over,

I'd die into you,

I promise to learn and to love what you give,

If we could start over again.[]

But here, the energy, the collective intelligence. It's like this force, t-this penetrating force, and I can just feel my mind opening up, you know, and letting this place just thrust into and -- and spurt knowledge into -- that sentence ended up in a different place than it started out in - Willow

Never Say Never by Queens of the Stone Age



You think that I go home at night

Take off my clothes, turn out the lights

But I burn letters that I write

To you, to make you love me

Amnesia, Virgil



Because it feels so right,

Let my imagination go.

Until you're in my sight,

And through my veins temptation flows.

Private Ale - Green day.







"somedays the line I walk

turns out to be straight

other days the line tends to

deviate

I've got no criteria for sex or race

I just want to hear your voice

I just want to see your face"

[Jennpurr]

Ani DiFranco, "In Or Out."





You lie silent there before me

Your tears they mean nothing to me

The wind howling at the window

The Love you never gave

I give to you



Really don't deserve it

But now there's nothing you can do

So sleep in your only memory of me

My dearest mother





This might be a hard one.

[Jennpurr]

Since it appears that I stumped everyone with my last one, I will answer it and post a new song.



The last one was: Room Of Angel by Mary Elizabeth McGlynn



New one is:



when a hoe was a hoe

Coke was a coke

And crack's what you were doing

When you were cracking jokes

Back when a screw was a screw

The wind was all that blew

And when you said I'm down with that

Well it meant you had the flu

Back When by Tim McGraw



Breaking my back just to know your name

Seventeen tracks and I've had it with this game

I'm breaking my back just to know your name

But heaven ain't close in a place like this

Somebody Told Me by The Killers



I get high on a buzz

then a rush when I'm plugged in you

I connect

When I'm flush

You get love when told what to do.







Edited because I forgot to put the lyrics in bold the first time.

That would be Strict Machine by the rather fantastic Goldfrapp.



Can't sit down

And I can't stand up

Cos if I do I know I'm gonna break

I can't stay in, and I can't go out

Cos if I do I know I'm gonna break

Breakin by The Music



If I could put them in a jar,

I know they wouldn't scar,

I'd do it if I could,

I hope you know I would.

Buffalo Tom - Late at Night



This one's really easy, but since it's my latest theme song, I thought I'd include it anyway.



I'm gonna tell everyone to lighten up

I'm gonna tell 'em that

I've got no one to blame

for every time I feel lame I'm looking up

I think it's Sheryl Crow - "Soak Up The Sun". I'm like 85% sure.



Anyhoo if I'm right, here is mine:



Stolen from an africa land,

Chased out with a knife.

With a face like Bob Marley

and a mouth like a motor bike.

Don't Push by Sublime



I've run through rainbows and castles of candy

And I've cried a river of tears from the pain

I tried to dance with what life had to hand me

And if I could...I'd do it all over again

Now serving Bitter, party of one. Your table is ready.
