Disturbed-Land Of Confusion :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:









I must've dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
But I can hear the marching feet
Moving into the street
Now did you read the news today?
They say the danger's gone away
But I can see the fire's still alight
Burning into the night

There's too many men
Too many people making too many problems
And there's not much love to go round
Can't you see this is a land of confusion?

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in

Our superman, where are you now
When everything's gone wrong somehow?
The men of steel, these men of power
Are losing control by the hour

And this is the time
This is the place so we look for the future
But there's not much love to go round
Tell me why this is a land of confusion?

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in

I remember long ago
When the sun was shining
And all the stars were bright
All through the night
In the wake of this madness
As I held you tight
So long ago

I won't be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We're not just making promises
That we know we'll never keep

There's too many men
Too many people making too many problems
And there's not much love to go round
Can't you see this is a land of confusion?

Now this is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth fighting for
This is the world we live in
And these are the names we're given
Stand up and let's start showing
Just where our lives are going to

Shadows of the Sun

Verse 1
The shadows
Shadows
Of the dead
In the silence

Verse 2
In the night
Close your eyes
And see the stars
The shadows
And tremors
Of the sun

Gloria Estefan-Young Hearts Run Free :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:



What's the sense in sharing, this one and only life
Endin' up, just another lost and lonely wife
You'll count up the years, and they will be filled
with tears
Love only breaks up, to start over again
You'll get the baby, but you won't have your man
While he is busy loving every woman that he can,
uh-huh
Say I'm gonna leave a hundred times a day
It's easier said than done
When you just can't break away (when you just can't
break away)

Chorus:

Oh young hearts run free
Never be hung up, hung up like my man and me, my man
and me
Ooh, young hearts, to yourself be true
Don't be no fool when love really don't love you,
don't love you

It's high time now just one crack at life
Who wants to live in, in trouble and strife
My mind must be free, to learn all I can about me,
uh-hmm

I'm gonna love me, for the rest of my days
Encourage the babies every time they say
"Self preservation is what's really going on today"

Say I'm gonna turn loose a thousand times a day
But how can I turn loose
When I just can't break away (when I just can't break
away)

Oh young hearts run free
They'll never be hung up, hung up like my man and me,
you and me
Ooh, young hearts, to yourself be true
Don't be no fool when love really don't love you,
don't love you

Cage The Elephant-Ain't No Rest For The Elephant :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:








He was a-
Ya know it
He was a-

I was walking down the street
When out the corner of my eye
I saw a pretty little thing approaching me
She said, I've never seen a man
Who looks so all alone
Uh, could you use a little company?

If you pay the right price
Your evening will be nice
And you can go and send me on my way
I said, "You're such a sweet young thing
Why'd you do this to yourself?"
She looked at me and this is what she said

"Oh, there ain't no rest for the wicked
Money don't grow on trees
I got bills to pay
I got mouths to feed
There ain't nothing in this world for free
I know I can't slow down
I can't hold back
Though you know
I wish I could
Oh, no there ain't no rest for the wicked
Until we close our eyes for good"

Not even 15 minutes later
I'm still walking down the street
When I saw the shadow of a man creep out of sight
And then he swept up from behind
He put a gun up to my head
He made it clear he wasn't looking for a fight

He said, "Give me all you've got
I want your money not your life
But if you try to make a move, I won't think twice"
I told him, "You can have my cash
But first you know I got to ask
What made you want to live this kind of life?"

He said, "There ain't no rest for the wicked
Money don't grow on trees
I got bills to pay
I got mouths to feed
There ain't nothing in this world for free
I know I can't slow down
I can't hold back
Though you know, I wish I could
Oh no there ain't no rest for the wicked
Until we close our eyes for good"
Yeah

You know it
He was a-
You know it
He was a-

Well, now a couple hours passed
And I was sitting at my house
The day was winding down and coming to an end
And so I turned on the TV
And flipped it over to the news
And what I saw I almost couldn't comprehend

I saw a preacher man in cuffs
He'd taken money from the church
He'd stuffed his bank account with righteous dollar bills
But even still I can't say much
Because I know we're all the same
Oh yes, we all seek out to satisfy those thrills

You know there ain't no rest for the wicked
Money don't grow on trees
We got bills to pay
We got mouths to feed
There ain't nothing in this world for free
I know we can't slow down
We can't hold back, though you know, we wish we could
Oh no, there ain't no rest for the wicked
Until we close our eyes for good

New Order-Blue Monday '88 :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:








Original:



How does it feel
To treat me like you do?
When you've laid your hands upon me
And told me who you are

I thought I was mistaken
I thought I heard your words
Tell me how do I feel
Tell me now, how do I feel

Those who came before me
Lived through their vocations
From the past until completion
They'll turn away no more

I still find it so hard
To say what I need to say
But I'm quite sure that you'll tell me
Just how I should feel today

I see a ship in the harbor
I can and shall obey
But if it wasn't for your misfortune
I'd be a heavenly person today

And I thought I was mistaken
And I thought I heard you speak
Tell me, how do I feel
Tell me now, how should I feel
Now I stand here waiting

I thought I told you to leave me
While I walk down to the beach
Tell me how does it feel
When your heart grows cold, grows cold...

One of my favourite songs of all time. I really like songs with a kinda ethereal feel.

Unknown man
Speaks to the world
Sucking in your trust
A trap in every word

War for territory
War for territory

Choice control
Behind propaganda
Poor information
To manage your anger

War for territory
War for territory
Dictators' speech
Blasting off your life
Rule to kill the urge
Dumb asshole speech

Years of fighting
Teaching my son
To believe in that man
Racist human being
Racist ground will live
Shame and regret
Of the pride
You've once possessed

War for territory
War for territory

I love this guy! He's fantastic. He's one man dsbm (depressive suicidal black metal) band. But its not the typical black metal. He can sing. His albums tell a great story and its filled with love emotions. 🖤

Belinda Carlisle-Band Of Gold :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:









Now that you're gone, all that's left is a band of gold
All that's left of the dreams I hold, a band of gold
And the memories of what love could be
If you were still here with me

You took me from the shelter of my mother
I had never known or loved any other
We kissed after taking vows
But that night on our honeymoon
We stayed in separate rooms

I wait in the darkness of my lonely room
Filled with sadness, filled with gloom, hoping soon
That you'll walk back through that door
And love me like you tried before

Now you've been gone, all that's left is a band of gold
All that's left of the dreams I hold, a band of gold
And the memories of what love could be
If you were still here with me

(Memories of what love could be)
(If you were still here with me)

Don't you know that I wait in the darkness of my lonely room
Filled with sadness, filled with gloom, hoping soon
That you'll walk back through that door
And love me like you tried before

Since you've been gone, all that's left is a band of gold
All that's left of the dreams I hold, a band of gold
And the memories of what love could be
If you were still here with me

I wait in the darkness of my lonely room
Filled with sadness, filled with gloom, hoping soon
That you'll walk back through that door
And love me like you tried before
