Lyrics (Translated):

Your laughter sings praises, your scowl pains my heart
I don't have time to pay attention to myself, I only feel what you feel
Where are you going? You've taken my soul along with you
But it's hurt you, so keeping it is no use to you

You're electricity, you're light, you are my only fairy tale
I only love you, you are my super star
You've dominated me, I worship you, there's no better way
I can only love you, you are my super star

Hand-- it's not a hand, it's a gentle universe
And I am the small planet turning in your hand
Please, look at me, let me have dreams to dream
I'm crazy for you, you must encourage me

You're electricity, you're light, you are my only fairy tale
I only love you, you are my super star
You've dominated me, I worship you, there's no better way
I can only love you, you are my super star

You are meaning, you're heaven and earth, you are God's decree
Besides loving you, there is no other truth

Fire, you are fire, you are the destination for this moth
I've never thought to escape, why should I want to escape?
Thank you for giving me this happy dream
If I forget myself, please help to remember me

You're electricity, you're light, you are my only fairy tale
I only love you, you are my super star
You've dominated me, I worship you, there's no better way
I can only love you, you are my super star

I guess I’ll be the first one in this thread to comment on some of these lyrics.

Enamorada (Girl in Love): It must sound better in its native language.

Love Story: As long as Taylor Swift is emulating Juliet, I have a suggestion for her…

Beautiful Death: Very emo, but this seems like a song that could be good… just heard the song in the link you posted… not so good. It’s one of those metal bands that tries to compensate lack of talent with beast voice and aggressive but imprecise drumming.

The Prison Song: I’ve heard this song. It’s not exactly a song, nor is it much fun to listen to, nor are those lyrics so much as they are repeated facts.

Pretender: Again, I know this song, and I like the lyrics, but the lyrics are nothing without Dave Grohl screaming them.

Dounimo Tomaranai: These lyrics would work as a tween idol song, but not so much a salsa song.

Generation: This song falls apart at the chorus, and this man does not speak for everyone in his generation.

You're Gonna Go Far, Kid: I love this song too, best song of the year in my opinion, but the lyrics don’t adequately convey how many intricate hooks this song has packed into three minutes.

Okay, my turn. If you haven’t been viewing my 5000th post thread, here are the lyrics and link to a song I wrote called “A Boy’s Last Stand.”

http://www.imeem.com/people/2p8DmT/music...ocal_edit/

A Boy’s Last Stand

I knew the guys who had their fingers on the button,
And I watched as all their warheads struck a home.
Through the shock and the awe, I was left here to thaw
With all the children arrested on an unwritten law.

I was begging for peace, but I didn’t try to reach
For what I deemed to be a fleeting sense of hope.
Through the night unconcerned with the books as they burned,
I aligned with the pages who were waiting for a turn.

When crayons are candles and bottles erase,
There comes a time for a boy to be betrayed.

They left a wound I’ve been clutching since the day I looked around,
A tune I’ve been singing since my castle hit the ground.
I’m alone, yet, I’m surrounded.
Lost the war, but I found it.

I knew the guys who flew a mission through the canyons
And I heard how they were tested to the bone.
Through the bulk of their tale, I was turning so pale
With all the boasting of bombing and all to no avail.

They were storming the beach where they said they’d achieve
What I deemed to be a fleeting sense of hope.
Through the walls of my room, it was safe to assume
There were privates enlisting in a curious platoon.

When princess is rental and tadpoles escape,
There comes a time for a boy to be betrayed.

They left a wound I’ve been clutching since the day I looked around,
A tune I’ve been singing since my castle hit the ground.
I’m alone, yet, I’m surrounded.
Lost the war, but I found it.

We sat in a row and they told me the truth.
She drinks it, smokes it, panders it to
He shoots it, stabs it, hammers it through,
And I—I didn’t know what to do
As I left that bench with a gaping wound.

When virtue is crippled as shrapnel invades,
There comes a time for a boy to be betrayed.

They left a wound I’ve been clutching since the day I looked around,
A tune I’ve been singing since my castle hit the ground.
I’m alone, yet, I’m surrounded.
Lost the war, but I found it.

It must sound better in its native language.

Go watch the video then! It might prove to be inspiring, sorta.

Title: Wish You Were Here

Song: http://m.youtube.com/watch?desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DIXdNnw99-Ic&v=IXdNnw99-Ic

Artist: Pink Floyd

Album: Echoes

Language: English

Lyrics:

So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell,
Blue skys from pain.
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?


Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade
Your heros for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?


How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl,
Year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here.


Comments: a sad, deep song. It makes you think.

Title: Vuelvo (I come back)
Song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SLnDDyfkScY
Artist/Group: Beto Cuevas
Album: Miedo Escenico (Scenario Fear)
Language: Hispanic (Mexican Spanish)
Lyrics:

Mejoraste eternidad
Y olvidaste mi realidad

Hoy ya no puedo
Creer en ti es algo toxico
Pero borrarte de mi mente
Es mas dificil que existir

Renunciaste al porvenir
Me mataste y revivi

Hoy ya no puedo
Creer en ti es algo toxico
Pero borrarte de mi mente
Es mas dificil que existir
Y ya no puedo resistir

Vuelvo a encontrarme
En el mismo lugar
Donde inicio
Con mi guitarra
Y una lagrima
Que se seco
Vuelvo a encontrarme
En el mismo lugar
Donde inicio
Con mi guitarra
Y una lagrima

Proclamaste rivalidad
Y encontraste en mi
Hostilidad

Hoy ya no puedo
Creer en ti es algo texico
Pero borrarte de mi mente
Es mas dificil que vivir
Y ya no puedo resistir

Vuelvo a encontrarme
En el mismo lugar
Donde inicio
Con mi guitarra
Y una lagrima
Que se seco
Vuelvo a encontrarme
En el mismo lugar
Donde inicio
Con mi guitarra
Y una lagrima

Vuelvo a encontrarme
En el mismo lugar
Donde inicio
Con mi guitarra
Y una lagrima
Que se seco
Vuelvo a encontrarme
En el mismo lugar
Donde inicio,
Con mi guitarra
Y una lagrima
Que se seco

Lyrics (Translated):

You bettered yourself
Yet you forgot all my reality

Today I can't
Believe in you is something toxic
But erasing you from my mind
Is harder than existing

You renounced to come
Killed me so I revived

Today I can't
Believe in you is something toxic
But erasing you from my mind
Is harder than existing
And I can't keep resisting

I find myself
In the same place
Where it all be-ga-an
With my guitar
And a tear
That dried u-up
I find myself again
In the same place
Where it all be-ga-an
With my guitar
And a te-aaar

You proclaimed rivalty
And found in me
The hostility

Today I can't
Believe in you is something toxic
But erasing you from my mind
Is harder than existing
And I can't keep resisting

I find myself
In the same place
Where it all be-ga-an
With my guitar
And a tear
That dried u-up
I find myself again
In the same place
Where it all be-ga-an
With my guitar
And a te-aaar

I find myself
In the same place
Where it all be-ga-an
With my guitar
And a tear
That dried u-up
I find myself again
In the same place
Where it all be-ga-an
With my guitar
And a te-aaar
That drrrrrieeeed uuuuuuuup

Comments: This guy used to sing for a big group called "La Ley" ("The Law"), but he quit and started his solo'ist career. Been doing great with this first Album (Miedo Escenico) and this is my favorite song. I struggled an entire month to get someone to tell me about Beto Cuevas. Love his deep voice accompained by the continous rock in the entire song. I'm sure you won't be able to appreciate the lyrics as much as I do (Considering it is me who's translating it so I miss most of the rythm and have a very narrow vocabulary to match up), but the video might prove to be entertaining :3

No, even worse, that woman is a whore.

Now here are some awesome lyrics (ones I wrote, again, copyrighted):

Everyone's a Hero

They were banging on the drums; they were whaling on guitars.
They were building legions playing all the local bars.
They signed a major label and they quit their humble jobs.
They tried to keep their heads, but the party never stopped.

They impressed upon their fans archetypal rock and roll.
The more they sang of youth, the faster they got old.

You know what it's like; you can vouch for their pride.
You can’t be disinclined to speeding up the ride.
You can pound a forty; you can snort a thousand lines.
You will be a hero as soon as you can die.

They were barely turning nine; they were tapping toes on stage.
They were planning on careers: the lucrative ballet.
They panicked ten years later when their résumés were jokes.
They settled for a dance where they took off all their clothes.

They gave in to the patrons making offers for a hole.
The more they flaunted youth, the faster they got old.

You know what it's like; you can vouch for their pride.
You can’t be disinclined to speeding up the ride.
You can beckon strangers; you can shove them through your thighs.
You will be a hero as soon as you can die.

Dying faster than a spider under foot.
Dying faster than a striper on a hook.
Dying faster than a silence to reflect.
Dying faster than a sign of self-respect.
Dying faster than their fearlessness of fun.
Dying just as fast as their good intentions.

They were rolling cross the sand; they were marching through the haze.
They were on a mission; it was changing every day.
They hoped to save a country from a hostile populace.
They did as they were told, but knew something was amiss.

They prayed to their messiah when they doubted where they'd go.
The more they saw of faith, the faster they went home.

You know what it's like; you can vouch for their pride.
You can’t be disinclined to speeding up the ride.
You can kill your neighbor; you can kill to kill the time.
You will be a hero as soon as you can die.

You can just accept it; you can go on with your lives.
You will be a hero; your friends will all be heroes.
Everyone's a hero—
'Cause no one will survive.

[DragonMasterX]

No, even worse, that woman is a whore.

How'd ya guess? :3

Title: The last song ever
Song: http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=n_KLKT1Kr-c
Artist/Group: Secondhand Serenade
Lyrics:

I wish my life was this song
Because songs they never die
I could write for years and years
And never have to cry, I’d show you how I feel
Without saying a word
I could wrap up both our hearts
I know it sounds absurd

And I saw the tears on your face
I shot you down and I slammed the door
But couldn’t make a sound
So please stay sweet my dear
Don’t hate me now
I can't tell how, this last song ends

The way that I feel tonight so down, so down
I pray I can swim just so I won't drown
In the waves that crash over me
I'm gasping for air
Take my hand so I can breath
As I write this last song down

And I saw the tears on your face I shot you down
And I slammed the door but couldn’t make a sound
So please stay sweet my dear
Don’t hate me now
I can't tell how, this last song ends

The broken glass... your moistened skin
Was everything, was everything

And your broken voice... was quivering
You're everything, you're everything

Scream at me make it the best I ever heard
Laugh out loud I know it sounds absurd

Scream at me make it the best I ever heard
You're everything, you're everything

Heart beats slowing, pains are growing
Does she love you, that’s worth knowing

Heart beats slowing, pains are growing
Does she love you, that’s worth knowing
Yeah


Comments: I like the part about slamming the door but not being able to makes a sounds... I feel exactly that way when I argue with my g/f, each time I'm yelling and leaving, I'm like about to cry and I still haven't reached my car... usually I call her back after only 1 hour cuz I feel bad

and too, I really like the beginning " wish my life was this song because songs they never die I could write for years and years and never have to cry, I’d show you how I feel without saying a word" such a cute part^^

[MagusKnight]

I’ll never forget the day we met in that grocery aisle
I’ve never been giggly in a Piggly Wiggly but you sure made me smile.
And since that day I’ve been blown away by your sweetness, baby
You make me holler for only a dollar, I love you so... Little Debbie.

Well, people say you’re no good for me but I don’t want to hear
I know you’ll never break my heart
Well you might clog it up, but I don’t care.
Cause a man can’t have too much sugar
And even though I’m getting a little heavy
I need the thrill of your chocolate fill
I love you so, Little Debbie.

Well my heart starts to pound when I eat a Fudge Round, oh the joy it brings
I yell “Oh lookie, it’s an Oatmeal Cookie,” it makes my tummy sing.
All I want for lunch is a Star Crunch, and I would trade my car
For a big bowl of Swiss Cake Rolls and a Nutty Bar.

Well the doctor says your no good for me, but what does he know?
He tells me to avoid the sweets
But he's sneaking around with his Ho-Ho.
Hey, a man can't have too much sugar
And even though I’m getting a little heavy
Your chocolate filling is oh so thrilling…
I love you so, Little Debbie

L-I-T-T-L-E
D-E to the double B-I-E
And we won’t quit and we won’t stop
New York tell me now are you ready to rock?

I like honey buns and I cannot lie
And you other brothas can’t deny
Put the chocolate snack up in my face
And it goes straight to my waist

I don’t like Tom’s can’t stand Lance
The Keebler elves don't even stand a chance.
A pack of Nipchee? Playa please!
Little D always brings me to my knees

So pick up that box and give it a shake
and break me off a piece of that devil’s food cake

I did it all for the cookie, the cookie, the cookie!
========================================================
This song is made of epic win!

[Wisemon]

You know, for a song of its genre, "The last song ever" wasn't bad, but I really hope it's not the last song ever, not how I want to go out.
