Lyrics to the soundtrack of your life...

Victim of the Game
Written by: Garth Brooks, Mark Sanders

Well, it took a little time
But I guess you finally learned
That promises get broken
And bridges do get burned
You've been siftin' through the ashes
Just tryin' to find a flame
Holdin' on to nothin'
You're a victim of the game

You were standin' way too close
To see it all fall apart
And there were things you couldn't hear
'Cause you were listenin' with your heart
But you can't say I didn't warn you
Now there's no one else to blame
There's on one quite as blind
As a victim of the game

And it don't matter who you are
It treats everyone the same
All you need's a heart
To be a victim of the game

You know it's really gettin' to you
When you take to tellin' lies
And you can try to fool your friends
But yo can't look 'em in the eye
There ain't no standin' tall
In the shadow of the shame
When everybody knows
That you're a victim of the game

And it don't matter who you are
It treats everyone the same
All you need's a heart
To be a victim of the game

Oh, you know, when I look into your eyes
I can really feel the pain
Starin' in the mirror
At a victim of the game

Eleanor Rigby (Lennon/McCartney)

I look at all the lonely people
I look at all the lonely people

Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been
Lives in a dream
Waits at the window, wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door
Who is it for?

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

Father McKenzie writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear
No one comes near.
Look at him working, darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there
What does he care?

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people

Eleanor Rigby died in the church and was buried along with her name
Nobody came
Father McKenzie wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave
No one was saved

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

most of the lyrics in this song are very relatable for me at this current point in my life.

the unforgiven III by metallica

How could he know this new dawn's light
Would change his life forever?
Set sail to sea but pulled off course
By the light of golden treasure

Was he the one causing pain
With his careless dreaming?
Been afraid
Always afraid
Of the things he's feeling
He could just be gone

He would just sail on
He'll just sail on

How can I be lost
If I've got nowhere to go?
Searched the seas of gold
How come it's got so cold?
How can I be lost
In remembrance I relive
How can I blame you
When it's me I can't forgive?

These days drift on inside a fog
It's thick and suffocating
This seeking life outside its hell
Inside intoxicating
He's run aground
Like his life
Water's much too shallow
Slipping fast
Down with the ship
Fading in the shadows now
A castaway

They've
All gone
Away

They've gone away

How can I be lost
If I've got nowhere to go?
Search for seas of gold
How come it's got so cold?
How can I be lost
In remembrance I relive
And how can I blame you
When it's me I can't forgive?

Forgive me
Forgive me not
Forgive me
Forgive me not
Forgive me
Forgive me not
Forgive me
Forgive me, why can't I forgive me?

Set sail to sea but pulled off course
By the light of golden treasure
How could he know this new dawn's light
Would change his life forever

How can I be lost
If I've got nowhere to go?
Search for seas of gold
How come it's got so cold?
How can I be lost
In remembrance I relive
So how can I blame you
When it's me I can't forgive?

Been Down So Long lyrics
Well, I've been down so ******* long
That it looks like up to me
Well, I've been down so very damn long
That it looks like up to me
Yeah, why don't one you people
C'mon and set me free

I said, warden, warden, warden
Won't you break your lock and key
I said, warden, warden, warden
Won't ya break your lock and key
Yeah, come along here, mister
C'mon and let the poor boy be

Baby, baby, baby
Won't you get down on your knees
Baby, baby, baby
Won't you get down on your knees
C'mon little darlin'
C'mon and give your love to me, oh yeah

Well, I've been down so ******* long
That it looks like up to me
Well, I've been down so very damn long
That it looks like up to me
Yeah, why don't one you people
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon and set me free

Basicly this song is my life. It is sad but true.

Disturbed "Guarded"

Guarding yourself from the love of another
Left you with nothing tonight
Why does it sound like the devil is laughing
Leaving me haunted tonight
You did decide

Now I want you, when you're gone, and now it's like
You're holding something just in front of me
Well then, I can't allow this to become another
One of those times that I'm left in the cold, dead
There's no compromise
Just another tie
I know I need to sever

Guarding yourself from the love of another
Left you with nothing tonight
Why does it sound like the devil is laughing
Leaving me haunted tonight
You did decide

Ever haunted, by the trappings of this life
Sweet redemption, just in front of me
Well now, it seems once again that I've lost another
One of the one's that have broke through the wall
Damned
Fate won't compromise
I have sold my soul,
And now the devil's laughing
You did decide

You were bold and strong, and ready to begin your life
All for nothing, you were sacrificed
You began alone, and so it will be when you die
All for nothing, will you be remembered?
You did decide

Guarding yourself from the love of another
Left you with nothing tonight
So now you know why the devil is laughing
He left you with nothing tonight
You did decide

So close
evanescence


I've spent so much time throwing rocks at your window
That I never even knocked on the front door

I walk by statues never even made one chip
but if i could leave a mark on the monument of the heart
I just might lay myself down for a little more than I had the last day

Wait a time to spare these lies we tell ourselves
These days have come and gone
But this time is sweeter than honey


*epic guitar solos*

This is the soundtrack of my life, no lyrics though.

It's called The Water by Spock's Beard. It's life...about being born, growing up and realizing that the world isn't fair, and dealing with it.

I: Introduction/The Water
I am the water
I am the ocean king
I own the red sky
I am the one who makes...
Dreams...
Real

II: When It All Goes to Hell

There you are
It's soft and it's red
Floating free
In your own private bed
Then one day
You're pushed down a well
And you feel your funny bone crack
When it all goes to hell

You come into
A world cold and bright
And after a while
It all seems alright
You dance and play
But it's too soon to tell
That you'll find yourself scathed and attacked
When it all goes to hell

When it all goes to hell

And you don't even try to get up
When it all goes to hell

III: A Thief in the Night
I was a general
Of darkness and light
I was to be the major man
It was some kind of sight

I was going to stand alone
And do what was right
Now I'm just another stepping stone
A thief in the night

So where were all of those
Angels and priests
Who said they'd carry me
Beyond my beliefs

Where are all of them now
They're gone from my sight
My mother and father deserted me
Like thieves in the night

Yes, where are all of them now
They're gone from my side
My mother and father deserted me
Like thieves in the night

I was the water
I was the ocean king
I ruled the red sky
I could do anything
'Til you, you
You messed me up
You, you
You all messed me up

IV: FU/I'm Sorry
You gave me this home and then you left me alone
**** YOU
You act real nice while you're exacting your price
**** YOU

Everyone's got their opinions
They'll tell ya 'bout 'em all the time
What makes 'em think i wanna hear them
I wish that you'd all ******* die, die, DIE!

You don't give a **** about anything
**** YOU
I don't know why you even bother to live
**** YOU

Everyone's so pathetic
Always talking all the time
What makes them think that
I give half a **** what's on their minds, minds, MINDS!

**** YOU
[if the truth were told I really hate myself]
**** YOU

**** YOU
**** YOU
**** YOU!

I'm so sorry
I really am so, so sorry
If I ever hurt you or caused you pain
I can't help it
I really, really just can't help it
When the madman's on the rise again

Can you understand what it's like?
You all must understand what it's like
I can't help what happened to me
Sometimes it just comes out now can't you see
Please understand and don't
Don't hate me

I'm so sorry
I really am so, so sorry
If I ever hurt you or caused you pain
If you don't understand it's all the same
I guess I'll just be left alone again...

V: The Water (revisited)
I am the water
I am the ocean king
I own the red sky
I am the one who makes...
You...
Feel

VI: Runnin' the Race

Mocks and spots
Rip up your face
But all that counts
Is that you get to first base
Tension mouths
Then it's put in its place
And you're finally having some fun
When you're runnin' the race

Chinatown
Is off to your left
The motor pool
Is there on the right
Tension in dot matrix
Right in your face
And you're finally having some fun
While you're runnin' the race

And you're finally having some fun
While you're runnin' the race
Runnin' the race
Runnin' the race

VII: Reach for the Sky
After we've gone
After the moon rises
And the red flags fly

Gonna reach for the sky
Gonna hold my head up high
Gonna reach for the sky

Storm ragin'
That'll be alright
If we reach for the sky
Yeah we reach for the sky

Guess there never was...
A winner
Just a race against time
I was mean - I was kind
Eventhough I was blind
I still reach for the sky

Storm ragin'
That'll be alright
If we reach for the sky
Yeah we reach for the sky

Come on people
Reach for the sky...

This isn't the soundtrack for "my life" as such ( cos I can't practice what I preach... =x ) but more for the message I try and tell those who need my help. The music is stunning

------------------

Wake up on your own
And look around you cuz you’re not alone
Release your high hopes and they’ll survive
Cuz this is the future and you are alive

Dive in and swim away
From your loneliness and miserable days

And when you wake up on your own
Look around you cuz you’re not alone
Let your hopes go and they’ll survive
Cuz this is the future and you are alive
…You’re headed home

Is not my life but it's an important part of it...

Millencolin - No Cigar

Tell us where you're from,
what you want to become.
And we'll say if you're OK.
Where did you go to school?
Right answer and you're cool.
Yeah, you're the kid the whole day.

You get a sticker in your face.
Information about the case,
so you know your potential.
Don't you think you can extend.
Don't you think you can extend, just comprehend.
But I don't wanna hear it,
no, it's more than I accept.

I don't care where I belong no more.
What we share or not I will ignore.

We will shut you out.
We'll put you in doubt.
If you think that you're special.
We'll tell you who you are.
Tell you that you're close but no cigar.
But I don't wanna hear it,
no, it's more than I accept.

'Cause I don't care where I belong no more.
What we share or not I will ignore.
And I won't waste my time fitting in.
'Cause I don't think contrast is a sin.

What they say is...
Go back, where you came from.
They'll tell you that, but I don't wanna hear.
No I don't wanna hear. No I don't wanna hear it.
No, it's more than I accept.

'Cause I don't care where I belong no more.
What we share or not I will ignore.
And I won't waste my time fitting in.
'Cause I don't think contrast is a sin.
No it's not a sin

Wow, someone actually quoted a Millencolin song in here. Nice to see I'm not the only one here that knows them!

Almost lived the dream, it was close enough.

So lyrics:

I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning, I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
Now the old king is dead, long live the king
One minute, I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

Appetite for destruction
Blowing us all away
Poison looking so damned good
I wondered if I was gay
Whitesnake making us bang our heads
In the still of the frickin' night
Coverdale banging Tawny Kitaen
And the world all felt just right

1987, I never wanna leave you
When you told me I was in my prime why didn't I believe you?
And the music scene will never be the same
But I didn't realize that things could get this lame

Dokken and lynch were young and hot
They wеre warriors in a dream
I couldn't understand thе loudness dude
But man, that guy could scream
Ozzy was on the crazy Train
Bitin' heads off bats
It was long before the YouTube trolls
And this ******** snappy-chats

1987, you're always gonna be the best
Like fresh Colombian cocaine off a 19 year old breast
And the kids these days will never understand
What it's like to play an instrument and be in a band

Growing out our hair
Gettin' high with girls
Cranking Scorpions and Priest
Everyone in leather

There never was a doubt
In any of our minds that pretty soon
Dave and Eddie
Were getting back together

1987, where did we go astray?
Back then the friends we had were real
And we saw 'em every day
And no one once got canceled for the things that they say

1987 will forever be the year
When guys wore more lipstick than girls
And no one seemed to care
And the music that we worshipped will live on
Even after all our heavy metal heroes are gone
