Get it out

The Gathering - Saturnine

The day you went away
You had to screw me over
I guess you didn't know
all the stuff you left me with
is way too much to handle
But I guess you don't care

You don't need to preach
you don't have to love me, all the time

Whatever on earth possessed you
to make this bold decision
I guess you don't need me
While whispering those words
I cried like a baby
hoping you would care

You don't need to preach
you don't have to love me, all the time

You don't have to preach
all the time
 
That is such a great song! Some time ago I felt this pain... Now when I hear this song I feel sad and strong at the same time.
 
"Tomorrow brings another town and another girl like you..."
Pink fucking Floyd


Life is but a memory
Happened long ago.
Theatre full of sadness
For a long forgotten show.
Seems so easy
Just to let it go on by
Till you stop and wonder
Why you never wondered why.

The Smashing Pumpkins-tonight tonight

Time is never time at all
You can never ever leave without leaving a piece of youth
And our lives are forever changed
We will never be the same
The more you change the less you feel

Believe, believe in me, believe
Believe that life can change
That you’re not stuck in vain
We’re not the same, we’re different tonight
Tonight, so bright
Tonight

And you know you’re never sure
But you’re sure you could be right
If you held yourself up to the light
And the embers never fade in your city by the lake
The place where you were born

Believe, believe in me, believe
Believe in the resolute urgency of now
And if you believe there’s not a chance tonight
Tonight, so bright
Tonight

We’ll crucify the insincere tonight
We’ll make things right, we’ll feel it all tonight
We’ll find a way to offer up the night tonight
The indescribable moments of your life tonight
The impossible is possible tonight
Believe in me as I believe in you, tonight



 
Muse - Endlessly

there's a part in me you'll never know
the only thing I'll never show

hopelessly I'll love you endlessly
hopelessly I'll give you everything
but I won't give you up
I won't let you down
and I won't leave you falling
If the moment ever comes

It's plain to see it's trying to speak
cherished dreams forever asleep
hopelessly I'll love you endlessly
hopelessly I'll give you everything
but I won't give you up
I won't let you down
and I won't leave you falling
if the moment ever comes

hopelessly I'll love you endlessly
hopelessly I'll give you everything
but I won't give you up
I won't let you down
and I won't leave you falling
but the moment never comes

Cheesy but Muse is just great.
 

she was an unparalleled beauty
she was a queen, she was a maid
she was the mother of a million sons
she associated with devils and demons
defying laws of reality

a head dweller should dwell in his head
far beyond everyday triviality
his dwelling stands in higher spheres
far from the humdrums, the ordinary
a slave at your majesty's service

my love, please show yourself to me
give me your hand in my wretchedness
deliver me from worldy platitudes
only in my imagination i can dwell
i have devoted my body to you

my love
 
Last night I dreamt
That somebody loved me
No hope, no harm
Just another false alarm

Last night I felt
Warm arms around me
No hope, no harm
Just another false alarm


So, tell me how long
Before the last one ?
And tell me how long
Before the right one ?


The story is old - I KNOW
But it goes on
The story is old - I KNOW
But it goes on


Oh, GOES ON
And on
Oh, goes on
And on

Toto- How Does It Feel

Morning's here
I feel so far away
It seems like I felt this before
All alone
Sun burns my skin
I can't live with pain anymore
And with you on my mind
Thinking of all that we've said
Were they just words
We'll live to regret
Why won't you stay?

How does it feel
To make me fall apart
Could this be love
Or just a broken heart
How do you feel
When you see me cryin' again

Times have changed
Is love at an end?
What makes us wonder why?
Rearranged
Just pretend
I can't stand the thought of goodbyes
And with you on my mind
Thinking of all that we've said
Were they just words
We'll live to regret
Why won't you stay?

How does it feel
To make me fall apart
Could this be love
Or just a broken heart
How do you feel
When you see me cryin' again


I could relate to this when I was 12 and I still can, should fit the initial criteria of this thread.
 
:Spin: Browsing through the Toto message board, i found this old post from Steve Lukather concerning former singer Fergie Fredriksen, this is good stuff, maybe an inspiration for you Anathema people, sure is entertaining.

"Dear Blu you uninformed *****. Fergie sucked *** in the studio. If you only knew the painstaking hours punching in word by word... I would rather have a dump truck drivin in my ******* then EVER record him again. He could maybe sing good ONE show out of 6 and he would get nasty cold sores on his lips due to nerves and further **** up his voice. Too bad there were no pro tools back then so Dave and I did not have to endure the agony of trying to get a take out of him. He sounded great on that record ONLY because of studio trickery and when it came time to do the Farenheit record we cut tracks and started with the vocals and it was a joke. THATS why we "drove him away"!!! It is absoulutely amazing that ignorant ******** like you THINK you know it all. Its nice you like the music but dont pretend to know crap about what is really going on. I am tired of hearing your raves and rants. Kiss my *** and find a new band to bother.
Lukather" :tickled:

There's more of them, this guy is priceless http://www.toto99.com/board/
 
"The difference between the music industry NOW and THEN is very simple:
In the old days.. you had to ####ing know how to PLAY.. NOW they have computers for doing that!
Record people and radio was passionate and could jump on something cause they LIKED it and believed in it.. now THAT costs 1,000,000 dollars and a blow job for "Clear Channel" They own EVERYTHING. And they say there is no payola.. PLEASE!"
 
you let me violate you, you let me desecrate you
you let me penetrate you, you let me complicate you
help me I broke apart my insides, help me I?ve got no soul to sell
help me the only thing that works for me, help me get away from myself

I want to fuck you like an animal
I want to feel you from the inside
I want to fuck you like an animal
my whole existence is flawed
you get me closer to god

you can have my isolation, you can have the hate that it brings
you can have my absence of faith, you can have my everything
help me tear down my reason, help me its' your sex I can smell
help me you make me perfect, help me become somebody else

I want to fuck you like an animal
I want to feel you from the inside
I want to fuck you like an animal
my whole existence is flawed
you get me closer to god

through every forest, above the trees
within my stomach, scraped off my knees
I drink the honey inside your hive
you are the reason I stay alive

Take a look at my girlfriend
She’s the only one I got
Not much of a girlfriend
Never seem to get a lot

Take a jumbo across the water
Like to see America
See the girls in California
I’m hoping it’s going to come true
But there’s not a lot I can do

Could we have kippers for breakfast
Mummy dear, mummy dear
They got to have ’em in Texas
Cos everyone’s a millionaire

I’m a winner, I’m a sinner
Do you want my autograph
I’m a loser, what a joker
I’m playing my jokes upon you
While there’s nothing better to do

Don’t you look at my girlfriend
She’s the only one I got
Not much of a girlfriend
Never seem to get a lot

Take a jumbo across the water
Like to see America
See the girls in California
I’m hoping it’s going to come true
But there’s not a lot I can do
