Songs That Resonate

What Lies Beneath by Breaking Benjamin

Take a breath
Hold it in
Start a fight
You won't win
Had enough
Let's begin
Nevermind
I don't care

All in all
You're no good
You don't cry
Like you should
Let it go
If you could
When love dies in the end

So I'll find what lies beneath
Your sick twisted smile
As I lie underneath
Your cold jaded eyes
Now you turn the tide on me
'Cause you're so unkind
I will always be here
For the rest of my life

Here we go
Does it hurt
Say goodbye
to this world
I will not
Be undone
Come to life
It gets worse

All in all
You're no good
You don't cry
Like you should
I'll be gone
when you fall
Your sad life
Says it all

So I'll find what lies beneath
Your sick twisted smile
As I lie underneath
Your cold jaded eyes
Now you turn the tide on me
'Cause you're so unkind
I will always be here
For the rest of my life

Don't carry me under
You're the devil in disguise
God sing for the hopeless
I'm the one you left behind

So I'll find what lies beneath
Your sick twisted smile
As I lie underneath
Your cold jaded eyes
Now you turn the tide on me
'Cause you're so unkind
I will always be here
For the rest of my life

 

Be careful of trance. Those give you trance, actually want to get more power, to control you later.

 

@F50C137YZ : that's ok he was just joking
omg is that a hardcore band. sounds cool

 

-----------

I love classical music as well as choral music. It has an ethereal quality that never ceases to amaze me.



English Translation:

Verb equal to God, the Almighty, our only hope,
Eternal day of the earth and heavens;
We break the silence of the peaceful night,
Divine Saviour, look upon us!

Fan the fire of your powerful grace upon us,
So that all Hell may flee at the sound of your voice;
Shake off the sleep of a languishing soul,
Who has forgotten your laws!

O Christ, be kind to these faithful people
Who have now gathered in thanks.
Listen to the chants they offer to your immortal glory,
And may they come away fulfilled with your gifts!

 

FUCK YOU, DAD!!

Below is a good song I heard on XM Octane Radio (channel 37) last night; TFK is a great band - have their album from 2012.

TFK - Push


This world can’t hold us, you can’t mess with soldiers
There’s no cell big enough to hold us
We came to be a wrecking ball to these boulders
Know this, I ain’t scared of these cobras
Over time, they’ve tried to just fold us
They thought they could mess with this focus
But there’s no room for these locusts
‘Cause real faith’s belief without borders
Hold this

We yell, but no one hears
We persevere, as we approach the line
We march, for all those fears, that kept us here
This time they’re left behind

Acting like they don’t notice
But they’re just mad because they can’t mold us
Told you never underestimate soldiers
‘Cause you can build a thousand walls
You can’t hold us

If we just keep running away
We’ll never make it alive
Until we stand and we fight
Aim, fire, and blow it away
We’re storming enemy lines
Leaving no one behind

This rock can’t hold us
‘Cause the light has shown us
No fear’s big enough to own us
We were never meant to fit in these folders
Know this, I ain’t scared of these posers
Over time we all face opponents
They thought they could mess with this focus
They forgot, the end of the climb’s the coldest, known as
Life’s a battlefield of moments, hold this

We yell, but no one hears
We persevere, as we approach the line
We march, for all those fears, that kept us here
This time they’re left behind

Acting like they don’t notice
But they’re just mad because they can’t mold us
Told you never underestimate soldiers
‘Cause you can build a thousand walls
You can’t hold us

If we just keep running away
We’ll never make it alive
Until we stand and we fight
Aim, fire, and blow it away
We’re storming enemy lines
Leaving no one behind

If we just keep running away
We’ll never make it alive
Until we stand and we fight
Aim, fire, and blow it away
We’re storming enemy lines
Leaving no one behind

If we just keep running away
We’ll never make it alive
Until we stand and we fight
Aim, fire, and blow it away
We’re storming enemy lines
Leaving no one behind

 

My observations bolded.

First in line
For the wishing well, well, well
For a long time
Can't you tell?
First in line
Give me a new start
Give me a new page

Hopeful, eager, maybe even desperate, but a wishing well doesn't help anyone. Also feel like I'm going through motions, trying to make something stick. Futile.

You see I would have killed Romeo, and saved Juliet
But I don't write stories, no, that time won't forget
This line evokes tragedy. I, too, prefer the bittersweet ending of a dead lover, but the hope for the living loved. Instead, Shakespeare killed them both. It must have been the right choice, because the narrative stuck over the centuries. We're doomed.
So won't you pass me the kerosene
Let's burn to the ground
You've been looking for meaning
Did you like what you found?
Sometimes it feels like it would be a lot easier to destroy the past. As if that could be done. And life doesn't always hold the answers we want; in fact it usually doesn't.
Forgive me, I've been lonely
Self explanatory. Not that I deserve forgiveness, but I still want it.
But it is not like I don't know my way
I don't know my way
Contradiction. I know how to beat porn. I've had 80+ day and a 60+ day streaks, respectively. I'm in a better place now than ever before. But I still screw it up and I'm in a place for recovery where I don't feel as confident in the experiences of others. I'm getting into uncharted territory. I'm frustrated.

Oh look at you all shining
And didn't you do well, well, well, well
For a long time
In all honesty, I have nothing for this.
How could I tell you my secret?
The married addict's conundrum. You love her. You don't want to hurt her. Telling her about your addiction will hurt her, she won't understand. Better to protect her from it. Protect her from yourself.
It's all a lie. I've covered that before, you can check out the link in my signature. But the line is in past tense, the secret is out now. There's regret that I didn't tell sooner, didn't start working on this before.
I don't know where to go from here
Give me a new page
Doubt, and desperation
There are some things, that will never change
Fear

You see I would have killed Romeo, and saved Juliet
But I don't write stories, that time won't forget
So won't you pass me the kerosene
Let's burn to the ground
You'v been looking for meaning
Did you like what you found?
Forgive me I've been lonely
But it is not like I don't
Know my way, but I don't know why
Oh Romeo, Oh Romeo, Oh Romeo, Oh Romeo, Oh Romeo...
Forgive me, I've been lonely
But it is not like I don't know my way
And I don't know my way
The particulars are all the same, repetition underscores stagnation. Voicing this is not cathartic release. I'm not better now. This isn't part of my healing, it's just an expression of emotion.

 

no worries. He deserved it
metal and chiptune are my two fav music genre . omg i love homemade metal, raw guitar + screaming=addiction

I can sleep forever with this song. thanks man

stole this song from someone

Everybody's always talking at me
Everybody's trying to get in my head
I wanna listen to my own heart talking
I need to count on myself instead

Did you ever
Lose yourself to get what you want?
Did you ever
Get on a ride, then wanna get off?

Something about this one I'm feeling it right now (testoserone up?) - back to the 90's - no 80s! Full lyrics in the Youtube comments for both. I guess war against porn maybe, and how we lose our true selves..



Barking of machinegun fire, does nothing to me now
Sounding of the clock that ticks, get used to it somehow
More a man, more stripes you bare, glory seeker trends
Bodies fill the fields I see
The slaughter never ends

Soldier boy, made of clay
Now an empty shell
Twenty one, only son
But he served us well
Bred to kill, not to care
Do just as we say
Finished here, greetings death

And of course the title track of the album, especially when it comes to addiction:



End of passion play, crumbling away
I'm your source of self-destruction
Veins that pump with fear, sucking darkest clear
Leading on your deaths' construction

Taste me you will see
More is all you need
You're dedicated to
How I'm killing you

Come crawling faster
Obey your master
Your life burns faster
Obey your master
Master

Master of puppets I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master

EDIT: You can't exactly fap when listening to Metallica...

 

Alvin and The Chipmunks? Nice.

 

Just curious.. What's the first physical music album you guys bought? For me it would have to be either the carter 2 or T.I vs T.I.P or maybe it was j. cole's cole world: sideline story.. How bout y'all?

 

GN'R: Greatest Hits when I was 12 yrs old. Great album, great band.

 

I would like to say I got something amazing....but the first album I bought was "Life In General" by MxPx, specifically for the song "Chick Magnet". They were also the first band I went to see in concert.

Fuck, I'm old.

 

old as dirt
