best lyric

[SCOTTSMYMAN]

Torn that's one of my fav lyrics too. I love all of Creed's lyrics and I'm really into Tori Amos. I love her lyrics because most of the time they are saying something without actually saying it. She has some mystery to her!

Creed has some of the best lyrics I've heard..
alot of their songs I can really relate to..esp. Whose Got My Back, Torn, I just love those lyrics!!!

My favorite Lyric To Torn Is Any Body Else Would Have Not Carried On This Far

[Lechium]

One of the songwriters is probably Tom Waits. Unlike most singers, in songs he writes lyics are the central point, and music is secondary.

Tom Waits -- Hold On

They hung a sign up in out town
"if you live it up, you won't
live it down"
So, she left Monte Rio, son
Just like a bullet leaves a gun
With charcoal eyes and Monroe hips
She went and took that California trip
Well, the moon was gold, her
Hair like wind
She said don't look back just
Come on Jim
(Chorus)
Oh you got to
Hold on, Hold on
You got to hold on
Take my hand, I'm standing right here
You gotta hold on

Well, he gave her a dimestore watch
And a ring made from a spoon
Everyone is looking for someone to blame
But you share my bed, you share my name
Well, go ahead and call the cops
You don't meet nice girls in coffee shops
She said baby, I still love you
Sometimes there's nothin left to do

Oh you got to
Hold on, hold on
You got to hold on
Take my hand, I'm standing right here, you got to
Just hold on.


Well, God bless your crooked little heart St. Louis got the best of me
I miss your broken-china voice
How I wish you were still here with me

Well, you build it up, you wreck it down
You burn your mansion to the ground
When there's nothing left to keep you here, when
You're falling behind in this
Big blue world

Oh you go to
Hold on, hold on
You got to hold on
Take my hand, I'm standing right here
You got to hold on

Down by the Riverside motel,
It's 10 below and falling
By a 99 cent store she closed her eyes
And started swaying
But it's so hard to dance that way
When it's cold and there's no music
Well your old hometown is so far away
But, inside your head there's a record
That's playing, a song called

Hold on, hold on
You really got to hold on
Take my hand, I'm standing right here
And just hold on

Nice Song Their Lechium Ive Heard Of This person But Never Listend To Him Do You ?

[emelie]

thank you for all your answers!

I also love all the creed-lyrics.

the lyrics have, in my opinion, so many angles and a depth that makes you sit and just listen for hours. I think they're great.

Why Are There People That Capitalize The First Letter In Every Single Word?

Its Not Just You, I've Seen Others Do It?

whY? I don'T geT iT

THis song has really good lyrics:
Metallica
" One "
I can't remember anything,
Can't tell if this is true or dream,
Deep down inside I feel to scream,
This terrible silence stops it there

Now that the war is through with me,
I'm waking up, I cannot see,
That there's not much left of me,
Nothing is real but pain now

Hold my breath as I wish for death,
Oh please God, wake me

Back in the womb it's much too real,
In pumps life that I must feel,
But can't look forward to reveal,
Look to the time when I'll live

Fed through the tube that sticks in me,
Just like a wartime novelty,
Tied to machines that make me be,
Cut this life off from me

Hold my breath as I wish for death,
Oh please God, wake me

Now the world is gone I'm just one,
Oh God, help me hold my breath as I wish for death,
Oh please God, help me

Darkness, imprisoning me,
All that I see,
Absolute horror,
I cannot live,
I cannot die,
Trapped in myself,
Body my holding cell

Landmine, Has taken my sight,
Taken my speech,
Taken my hearing,
Taken my arms,
Taken my legs,
Taken my soul,
Left me with life in hell
