Inspirational lyric

my favorite new lyrics!!

But thankfully, thankfully I haven’t been taken very seriously
Seriously anxious to run the course without stumbling
Stumbling over fences now I’m falling
Falling down the hillside
It’s way too steep
It’s way too steep

Wait for me, well I am not very far behind so
Wait for me, I’m still chasing you
Wait for me, well I am not very far behind so
Wait for me, I’m still chasing you

I think my favorite yet is an entire song, short as it might be. The intro track to the live album Live at The Fillmore titled "The Warbler".

There's a self centered place
That spins in the space
Where greed and envy rule

The stubbornness of opinions
Make everyone a fool
Everyone's a fool, everyone's a fool

It's where attitudes and egos shine
And war is so fine tuned
It's so fine tuned, it's so fine tuned

It's where trust is void and hate's employed
This idea must change soon
It must change soon, it must change soon

I like it cause it's a the break from personalized lyrics that dredg does so well. They seem to be a little bit more outwardly focused on society (you can notice this from a more extensive use of "we" lyrics instead of "I" lyrics) and I think it's great when instead of just writing about himself a singer takes an outward approach and involves everyone in the larger scheme of things.

I love SANZEN and all the concept behind of his lyrics.

I can't even concentrate on this,
It's over thought, anticipated,
The pen ink is running dry,
It's been thrown to paper and wasted,

Creativity has been blocked and over tasted,
Maybe in time, I'll appreciate it

Hold on, hold on, we'll be with you soon

These papers are stuck in this book,
'till they're torn out and pasted,
to inside of my memory,
where I can later look and see them in a new gallery,
where they can later be viewed and appreciated.

Hold on, hold on, we'll be with you soon,
We'll be with you soon

Longing for what has been lost,
And longing for what hasn't been obtained,
It's a small cost, forgot the past, lost the future,
Only now remains

Hold on, hold on, we'll be with you soon,
We'll be with you soon

Whoa is Me

The only things surrounding you now,
Are the circular memories that infect your conscience,
They are the make up of your worries, regret, and doubts.

Collective portrayal of your person,
Radiates confidence, shine with silence,
And shadow the ones below.

This drought is leaving me,
With cracked soil and brown leaves,
Floating on a dry lake bed,
With a dry mouth and a foggy head,
Waiting for the snow

But, when the water comes,
I will overflow, I will overflow.
When the water comes, I will overflow.

There's one more thing I forgot to tell you:
Worries and doubts will only help you,
In the long run, you'll shadow the ones below.

This drought is leaving me,
With cracked soil and brown leaves,
Floating on a dry lake bed,
With a dry mouth and a foggy head,
Waiting for the snow

But, when the water comes,
I will overflow, I will overflow .
When the water comes, I will overflow

Gavin's lyrics are amazing but currently for me, off the new album I love Light Switch. It's something I can relate to so much... that necesity for the only thing that completes every part of you where you know you are lacking.

"I was put in a round room
And told to sit in the corner
While they wash my brain with a dirty rag

I was given a hammer
And told to build a fortress
With walls impossible to penetrate

You're the only thing I need
And you've become the only thing
That keeps me breathing, without you I'd be
In a dark place, no lightswitch
An open wound without a stitch
Maybe now you will understand

No matter how stable
The foundation may seem
Everything is crashing down on me

With papercuts on fingertips
Blackened eyes, and broken lips
Forever wounded, it's hard to tell

You're the only thing I need
Whether I fail or succeed
Within my blindness, you are all I see
The morning fog sun burns away
A predator's eye without its prey
Maybe now you will understand

I won't quit on you
No, I won't quit on you
I won't run away,
Ever, ever, ever, ever..."

"I was put in a round room
And told to sit in the corner
While they wash my brain with a dirty rag

I was given a hammer
And told to build a fortress
With walls impossible to penetrate

You're the only thing I need
And you've become the only thing
That keeps me breathing, without you I'd be
In a dark place, no lightswitch
An open wound without a stitch
Maybe now you will understand
“When i get sad, i stop being sad and be awesome instead. True story”

A lot of Matisyahu's lyrics are inspirational, so, i wanted to pull something off of his new album. What i like about this song is that it's so positive, and uplifting. Although i do like to dig for meaning in lyrics, Matisyahu's stuff is pretty straight-forward and delivers the message quite directly with no beating around the bush. What i get from these lyrics is the fact that we need to break free from our mental barriers which we have been taught to live in and keep our thoughts constrained in those mental "cages." Live a positive life, and give love to those who you want to know that you care avout them.

Matisyahu "I Will Be Light"

Sit back
And in these days
Remember my ways
Oh will i get out of my cage?
Yes i am a slave

Searching for some freedom
Searching for some freedom

So intend to sing them
Songs to spark, memories
What is a man with no history?
Where am i?
Who am i?
What is this place?,
We're just spinning in space

Time will continue without you
So in the end
Its not about you
But,
What did you do?
Who do you love besides you
Beside you, many died in the name of vanity
Many die,in their mind’s eye, for justice
We die for you
And still do
So i say to you
This is nothing new

I will be light

Its/In one tiny moment in time
For life to shine, to shine
Burn away the darkness

You’ve got one tiny moment in time
For life to shine, to shine
To burn away the darkness

Look at what I have found
A seashell in a sea of shells
I'm good at planting my own seeds
To sprout endless hell
It's dark like Poe

... I don't know exactly why.. but when I listen to these lyrics, I'm just ready to cry...and it gives me a lot of energy too..strange, hé!
