This was tried a while back on this site but was unsuccessful because some fool started using google to cheat.

What are the next lyrics, what song is it and who origionally wrote the song?

"She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything
Was as fresh as the bright blue sky"

Nice easy one to start with, post your own once answered correctly.

Now and then,
when I see her face,
it takes me away to that special place,
and if I stare to long,
I'd probably break down and cry.. yayyy... yayyy... yayyy...

Sweet Child O' Mine by GnR

EDIT: Forgot the next one:

Mother, Father,
Look at your little monster
I'm a hero, I'm a zero
I'm the butt of the worst joke in history.

Help! recognise this but haven't a clue what it is.
 
It's sweet child of mine by Guns & Roses


Although you try to discredit
Ya still never edit
The needle, I'll thread it
Radically poetic
Standing with the fury that they had
in '66
 
And like e-double, I'm mad,
Still knee-deep in the system's ****, Hoover, he was a body remover,
I'll give you a dose, But it'll never come close,
To the rage built up inside of me,
Fist in the air, in the land of hypocrisy,

RATM Wake Up

I'll give an easy one, I could confuse yall easy.

Waiting for your modern messiah to take away all the anger that darkens the light in your eyes, ...

It's either "still awaiting" or "still I'm waiting",

but either way it's "Liberate" by Disturbed.

Now for the my next one:
Hello my friend, we meet again
It's been a while, where should we begin?
 
Origionally posted by enigma,

I really want to know where those lyrics came from.
 
That's Bad Religion I think...
*runs song thru head*

I'm a lock with a key, a city with no door, a jack without and ace a something something sometihng.


Song called Incomplete, from the album, stranger than fiction.
 
Hello my friend, we meet again
It's been a while, where should we begin?
feels like forever.
within my heart a memory.
a perfect love that you gave to me.

Creed My Sacrifice.

Heres the next one.

I was born in a cross-fire hurricane
And I howled at my ma in the driving rain,
But it's all right now, in fact, it's a gas!

Jumping Jack Flash, it's a gas, gas, gas.

Jumping Jack Flash by the Rolling Stones.

Gotta get something trickier than that, Andy

Next:

Sleepwalking through the all-night drugstore
Baptized in flourescent light
I found religion in the greeting card aisle
Now I know Hallmark was right.

Me either. Turns out it's an Ani Difranco song.

Clearly, the wife has gotten her hand into his musical tastes...

And every pop song on the radio
Is suddenly speaking to me
Art may imitate life
But life imitates t.v.
Because you've been gone exactly two weeks
Two weeks and three days
And let's just say that things look different now
Different in so many ways

Superhero by Ani DiFranco (Thanks for the tip Tom:wink: )

Next:

Crazy, but that's how it goes
Millions of people living as foes
Maybe it's not too late
To learn how to love
And forget how to hate
Mental wounds not healing
Life's a bitter shame

Mental wounds not healing
Life's a bitter shame

I've listened to preachers
I've listened to fools
I've watched all the dropouts
Who make their own rules
One person conditioned to rule and control
The media sells it and you have the role

Mental wounds still screaming
Driving me insane
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train

Crazy Train by Ozzy Osbourne

Next:

You're dangerous 'cause you're honest
You're dangerous, you don't know what you want
Well you left my heart empty as a vacant lot
For any spirit to haunt


Hey hey sha la la
Hey hey

I'll have you know the "wife" hates Ani DiFranco. I personally think she's a goddess.

You're an accident waiting to happen
You're a piece of glass left there on the beach
Well you tell me things I know you're not supposed to
Then you leave me just out of reach

U2, Whos going to ride your wild horses.

Dearly beloved,
We are gathered here today
To get through this thing called LIFE
Electric word life
It means forever and that's a mighty long time...

But I'm here to tell ya
There's something else...the afterworld
A world of never ending happiness
You can always see the sun
Day or night
So when you call up that shrink in Beverly Hills -
You know the one
Dr. Everything 'll be alright
'Stead of asking Him how much of you're time is left
Ask him how much of you're mind, baby
'Cause in this life things are much harder than in the afterworld
In this life...you're on your own!
And if the elevator tries to bring you down,
go crazy...punch a higher floor!


Prince, let's go crazy, from the purple rain album.

heres another one, you should all get this one.

"Cruised into a bar on the shore
Her picture graced the grime on the door
She a long lost love at first bite
Baby maybe you're wrong, but you know it's all right
That's right"

That'd be "Dude looks like a lady", by Aerosmith.

Alright, next one:

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
Men weren't meant to ride
With clouds between their knees

I'm only a man in a silly red sheet
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me
It's not easy to be me.

Five for Fighting; Superman

Last one was to easy, I'm going to make someone cheat to get this one.


It started as a whisper
Now try to dodge this roar
Unified, the most forceful way to go

Waste this one
It's up to you
We need this revolution

Destroy the pattern
Anything that separates
Across the times
Who dares to follow

hehe, I'm so mean.

Waste this one?
It's up to you!
We need this revolution

Destroy the pattern
Anything that separates
Across the times.
Who dares to follow?

For years we wandered these circles
Hold onto whatever lie gets us through


Design new latitudes
Find ways to channel bliss
Us defined, it's too fragile to neglect
Reroute to Remain
Reroute to Remain

Never want, to look back in greed
Can I please have your attention?

There are mountains to cross
For all that are willing
There a never ending treasures
That await you."

lol, i cheated but i didnt want too! just had too.

here's a goodin should get it easy though,

"When I’m drivin’ in my car
And that man comes on the radio
And he’s tellin’ me more and more
About some useless information
Supposed to fire my imagination."

I can't get no, no no no
Hey hey, that's what I say

I can't get no satisfaction

Satisfaction by The Rolling Stones

The way you're bathed in light,
reminds me of that night,
God layed me down into your rose garden of trust,
and I was swept away,
with nothing left to say
 
  • #24
Some helpless fool
Yeah I was lost in a swoon of peace
You're all I need to find
So when the time is right
Come to me sweetly, come to me
Come to me

Love will lead us, alright
Love will lead us, she will lead us
Can you hear the dolphin's cry?
See the road rise up to meet us
It's in the air we breathe tonight
Love will lead us, she will lead us

Oh yeah, we meet again
It's like we never left
Time in between was just a dream
Did we leave this place?
This crazy fog surrounds me
You wrap your legs around me
All I can do to try and breathe
Let me breathe so that I
So we can go together!

Love will lead us, alright
Love will lead us, she will lead us
Can you hear the dolphin's cry?
See the road rise up to meet us
It's in the air we breathe tonight
Love will lead us, she will lead us

Dolphins Cry by Live

i don't need to be a global citizen
because I'm blessed by nationality
i'm member of a growing populace
we enforce our popularity
there are things that
seem to pull us under
and there are things
that drag us down
but there's a power
and a vital presence
thats lurking all around

we've got the american Jesus
see him on the interstate
we've got the american Jesus
he helped build the
president's estate

i feel sorry for the Earth's population
'cuz so few live in the U.S.A.
at least the foreigners can copy our morality
they can visit but they cannot stay
only precious few can garner the prosperity
it makes us walk with renewed confidence
we've got a place to go when we die
and the architect resides right here

we've got the american Jesus
overwhelming millions every day
(exercising his authority)

he's the farmers barren fields
the force the army wields
the expession in the faces
of the starving children
the power of the man
he's the fuel that drives the clan
he's the motive and conscience
of the murderer
he's the preacher on t.v.
the false sincerity
the form letter that's written
by the big computers
he's the nuclear bombs
and the kids with no moms
and I'm fearful that
he's inside me

American Jesus by Bad Religion

When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
And I wish I was special
 
  • #26
You're so ****in' special
But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here.

I don't care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When I'm not around
You're so ****in' special
I wish I was special

Creep by Radiohead

You were my first love
The Earth moving under me
Bedroom scent, beauty ardent
Distant shiver, heaven sent.
I'm the snow on your lips
The freezing taste, the silvery sip
I'm the breath on your hair
The endless nightmare, devil's lair.

Sorry I haven't looked at this thread in quite a while...

Only so many times
I can say I long for you
The lily among the thorns
The prey among the wolves

Someday, I will feed a snake
Drink her venom, stay awake
With time all pain will fade
Through your memory I will wade

I think it's called "Feel For You", by Nightwish.

Alright, let's see if I can think of a challenging one...

You used to captivate me
By your resonating light
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind

Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me

these wounds won't seem to heal
this pain is just too real
there's just too much that time cannot erase

Immortal Evanescence, Hateful song which i was forced to listen to many a time by friends.

"Heart - breaker, soul - shaker
I've been told about you
Steam - roller, the midnight shoulder
What they been sayin' must be true

Red hot mama
Time's come to pay your dues"

That Version is a cover from the original, but the chorus is the same, i think.

Now your messin' with a son of a b****

"Hair of the Dog" by Guns n Roses.

Just for the record: Evanescence RULES!

Alright, here's the next one:

Another nightmare about to come true
Will manifest tomorrow
Another love that I've taken from you
Lost in time on the edge of suffering

Just for the Record, Evanescence suck! only good if you like listening to Stinkin Park and Charlotte Church at the same time!
