Distraction by Travis Illuminate me please I need a distraction From all this sense that just descends From the skies, all the trees All the birds, and the bees When it's falling from time We fall in line
I get distracted from the heart of the matter The bright lights blind and take my mind From the fact, there's a tack That is keeping me back From a real life, it feels like
All the little things I miss are Making up what all this is I'm living driven to distraction
I get an answer then it slips away from me Before I tell somebody else And just when I thought it was safe in the water I'm sinking, I'm thinking
That all the little things I miss Are making up what all this is I'm living driven to distraction
And all the action's somewhere else where Just when I think I've got some well I'm back distracted Wondering what's out there
Well now all the little things I miss Are making up what all this is I'm living driven to distraction
I'm living driven to distraction
Just the Faces Change By Travis
I look around for faces I know I never ever want to go home My friends are in bed But I'm best on my own
I'm terrified of driving a car Afraid I'm afraid of the dark It happened before In a different bar
And I know it's late But won't you take me home I must have thought of getting out now But how am I gonna get out? When even the name's stay the same Just the faces change
It's easier to stare at the sun Than look at all the things that you've done Intentions were good But then so was the fun
And you know it's wrong It can't go on for long I must have thought of getting out now But how are you gonna get out? When even the names stay the same Just the faces change Just the faces change
You must have thought of getting out now But how are you gonna get out? When even the names stay the same Just the faces change Just the faces change
Standing on My Own By Travis
It's so sad to be alone No one cares when no one's home So if you're there pick up the phone 'cos I'm standing on my own
Ain't it good to know you're right Don't it soothe the darker nights Pretty soon it will be light Ain't it good to know you're right
But I'm standing on my own And this house is not a home It's so sad to see you go Things are high, things are low And its good to know you know If you've got no where to go Well you could spend the night with me I will sleep on the settee
It's so sad to be alone No one cares 'cos no one's home So if you're there pick up the phone Because I'm standing on my own Because I'm standing on my own
Er yes.. I think I'm done... broke the Dougie trend by... eh.. one song. ^^

*claps for Dougie*
um.. I'm pretty sure this hasn't been posted.. yes, pretty sure.. I don't think anyone has posted it (which I think only Mip has posted Travis songs so far, but still) *is too lazy to go back and check* and if it has been posted.. well.. uh.. you can't stop me from posting it again! *awkward silence* um... *runs away*
Somewhere Else by Travis
Home and away Life goes on the same We bury the pain And hold on to love Hear the song Sing along But what does it change
Oh this life is so confusing Feels like I'm always losing
We come in Knowing everything But don't say a word Till they teach it away Words are found Too close to the edge That we don't dare say
And this will turn into something else Something else And when it does I'll be somewhere else Somewhere else Where else?
And you say I should be myself Despite all the wrong (dragging you back) Forgive and then forgone and on and on And on and on
But this life is so confusing Feels like I'm always losing
And this'll turn into something else Something else But when it does I'll be somewhere else Somewhere else Where else?
Broken by Seether featuring Amy Lee from Evanescence
I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away I keep your photograph; I know it serves me well I wanna hold you high and steal your pain
‘Cause I’m broken when I’m open And I don’t feel like I am strong enough ‘Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome And I don’t feel light when you’re gone away
The worst is over now and we can breathe again I wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away There’s so much left to learn, and no one left to fight I wanna hold you high and steal your pain
‘Cause I’m broken when I’m open And I don’t feel like I am strong enough ‘Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away
‘Cause I’m broken when I’m open And I don’t feel like I am strong enough ‘Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome And I don’t feel light when you’re gone away
okay.. so the one on the album doesn't have Amy Lee in it.. but the one on the radio and video does! *runs away again*

One of my favourite songs...
Something Corporate - Cavanaugh Park
At Cavanaugh Park Where I used to sit All alone in the dark And dream about things That I cannot say You always said destiny Would blow me away And nothing's gonna blow me away
At Cavanaugh Park Where you used to take me To play in the sand And said to me, "Son, one day you'll be a man. "And men can do terrible things." Yes they can
And there was never any place For someone like me to be Totally happy I'm running out of plot and that Ain't a shock Some things never do change Never do change
At Cavanaugh Park We used to get high Watching teams as they fought They loved my friend Adam But he always got caught Man, that kid made f***ing up look Spiffy Aren't we all so Spiffy now? No
And there was never any place For someone like me to be Totally happy I'm running out of plot and that Ain't a shock Some things never do change Never do change
Never do change Never do change Never do change
At Cavanaugh Park Where I used to think That my life would be good And I would do things That I thought that I should And no one's going to tear me down
And there was never any place For someone like me to be Totally happy I'm running out of plot and that Ain't a shock Some things never do change
And there was never any place For someone like me to be Totally happy I'm running out of plot and that Ain't a shock Some things never do change Never do change Never do change Never do change

Some more songs......
Reflection -by Matthew Wilder On the music video it was sung by Christina Agulair (not sure of the spelling)
Look at me You may think you see who I really am But you'll never know me Everyday it's as if I play a part
Now I see, if I wear a mask I can fool the world, but I cannot fool my heart
Who is that girl I see staring straight back at me? When will my relfection show who I am inside?
I am now in a world where I have to hide my heart and what I believe in But somehow I will show the world What's inside my heart and be loved for who I am.
Who is that girl I see staring straight back at me? Why is my reflection some-one I don't know?
I won't pretend that I'm some-one else for all the time
When will my reflection show who I am inside? When will my reflection show who I am inside?

Merf.. here's another song..
Time is Running Out by Muse
I think I'm drowning, Asphyxiated, I wanna break the spell That you've created. You're something beautiful, A contradiction, I wanna play the game, I want the friction.
You will be the death of me, Yeah, you will be the death of me.
Bury it, I won't let you bury it, I won't let you smother it, I won't let you murder it, Our time is running out, Our time is running out, You can't push it underground, You can't stop me screaming out.
I wanted freedom, Found that restricted, I tried to give you up, But I'm addicted.
Now that you know I'm trapped, Sets off elation, You'd never dream of Taking this fixation. You will squeeze the life out of me.
Bury it, I won't let you bury it, I won't let you smother it, I won't let you murder it
And our time is running out, Our time is running out, You can't push it underground, You can't stop me screaming out.
How did it come to this? Oh oh oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Oh oh oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Oh oh oh yeah yeah yeah yeah You will suck the life out of me.
Bury it, I won't let you bury it, I won't let you smother it, I won't let you murder it,
Our time is running out, Our time is running out, You can't push it underground, You can't stop me screaming out. How did it come to this? Oh oh oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Oh oh oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Oh oh oh yeah yeah yeah yeah

Unwell
All day staring at the ceiling Making friends with shadows on my wall All night hearing voices telling me That I should get some sleep Because tomorrow might be good for something
Hold on Feeling like I’m headed for a breakdown And I don’t know why
[chorus]
But I’m not crazy, I’m just a little unwell I know right now you can’t tell But stay awhile and maybe then you’ll see A different side of me I’m not crazy, I’m just a little impaired I know right now you don’t care But soon enough you’re gonna think of me And how I used to be...me
I’m talking to myself in public Dodging glances on the train And I know, I know they’ve all been talking about me I can hear them whisper And it makes me think there must be something wrong with me Out of all the hours thinking Somehow I’ve lost my mind
[chorus]
But I’m not crazy, I’m just a little unwell I know right now you can’t tell But stay awhile and maybe then you’ll see A different side of me I’m not crazy, I’m just a little impaired I know right now you don’t care But soon enough you’re gonna think of me And how I used to be
I’ve been talking in my sleep Pretty soon they’ll come to get me Yeah, they’re taking me away
[chorus]
But I’m not crazy, I’m just a little unwell I know right now you can’t tell But stay awhile and maybe then you’ll see A different side of me I’m not crazy, I’m just a little impaired I know right now you don’t care But soon enough you’re gonna think of me And how I used to be
Yeah, how I used to be How I used to be Well, I’m just a little unwell How I used to be How I used to be I’m just a little unwell

One of me favourite songs...
Testify Avalon
All the colors of the rainbow All the voices of the wind Every hand that reaches out That reaches out to find where love begins
Every word of every story Every star in every sky Every corner of creation Lives to testify
[Chorus] For as long as I shall live I will testify to love I'll be a witness in the silences When words are not enough With every breath I take I will give thanks to God above For as long as I shall live I will testify to love
From the mountains to the valleys From the rivers to the seas Every hand that reaches out Every hand that reaches out to offer peace
Every single act of mercy Every step to kingdom com All the hope in every heart will Speak what love has done
[Chorus] For as long as I shall live I will testify to love I'll be a witness in the silences When words are not enough With every breath I take I will give thanks to God above For as long as I shall live I will testify to love

This thread does not deserve to die. *brings back to life*
A band I've been quite into lately:
Crossfade - Cold
Looking back at me, I see that I never really got it right, I never stop to think of you. I'm always wrapped up in things I can not win.
You are the antidote that gets me by, Something strong, like a drug that gets me high.
What I really meant to say, Is I'm sorry for the way, I am. I never meant to be so cold Never meant to be so cold
What I really meant to say, Is I'm sorry for the way, I am. I never meant to be so cold Never meant to be so...
Cold to you, I'm sorry about all the lies Maybe in a different light, You could see me stand on my own again, Cause now I can see.
You are the antidote that got me by, Something strong, like a drug that got me high.
What I really meant to say, Is I'm sorry for the way, I am. I never meant to be so cold Never meant to be so cold
What I really meant to say, Is I'm sorry for the way, I am. I never meant to be so cold Never meant to be so cold
I never meant to be so cold
I never really wanted you to see, The screwed up side of me that I keep, Locked inside of me so deep, It always seems to get to me, I never really wanted you to go, So many things you should have known, I guess for me there's just no hope. I never meant to be so cold.
What I really meant to say, Is I'm sorry for the way, I am. I never meant to be so cold Never meant to be so cold
What I really meant to say, Is I'm sorry for the way, I am. I never meant to be so cold Never meant to be so cold
Crossfade - No Giving Up
So you found out today your life's not the same Not quite as perfect as it was yesterday but When you were just getting in the groove Now you're faced with something new And I know it hurts and I know you feel torn But you never gave up this easily before So why do you choose today to give it all away
Well it's not so bad y'all Together we all fall Just as long we get up we'll stand tall We shouldn't waste another day Thinking 'bout the things that we forgot to say
I'm hittin' back y'all Kickin' these four walls Just as hard as I can til I can't crawl I won't waste another day With all these silly things Swimmin' in my brain
[Chorus] There's no giving up now Do you really want to give this all away Can't you ever see things in a different way
Somedays No giving up now Such a beautiful thing to throw away You should think things through Over and over again All over again
So your scars fade away You soaked up the pain A better person 'cause you lived through those days And now you know what it's like to prove You can overcome anything that gets to you Well it's alright We're sayin' our goodbyes To the past and everything that ain't right We won't waste another day With all these silly things in our way
[Chorus]
I know we have given All that we can give When there's nothing to lean on Well, I remember this All we make of this lifetime Is always here within And remembering that's why We should never give in
[Chorus]
There's no giving up now
-Menelien

I don't really like this band, but they have a few good lyrics.
Princes and Frogs By Superchick
you hate men is what you say and i understand how you feel that way all girls dream of a fairy tail but what you got's like a used car sales man, trying to conceal what's wrong behind a smile and a song and i'm not saying that boys are not like that but i think you should know that some of us will grow because...
all princes start as frogs all gentleman as dogs just wait till it's plain to see what we're growing up to be.. coz some frogs will still be frogs some dogs will still be dogs but some boys can become men just don't kiss us till then
