Ever feel like you've inspired a song?

Recommended Posts

Who's been strumming your pain with their fingers? Singing your life with their words? Killing you softly with their song...?

I've got a few, but I've found myself relating to these lyrics (and the title) a little too much lately. I'm wondering if we don't have some song writers lurking on these boards :P

Opinions Won't Keep You Warm At Night - by Kisschasy

Wait while jealousy tears you apart

I'm sorry but I cannot help the way you are

That we do the things you can't

Just wait

can't you see you're being weak?

It's shallow and dark you know every time you speak

You're just lying through your teeth

Sometimes, days are like you say yet I don't agree with what you see

But I will never let the bitter things you say ever get to me

Sometimes, days are like you say yet I don't agree with what you see

But I will never let the bitter things you say ever get to me

We are everything you wish you were

But, I'm feeling kinda concerned

we're probably friends

But you hide from consequence

Yeah you must have a lot of spare time

To put down the words that you write

But no one cares

You should put your mind to rest

Sometimes, days are like you say yet I don't agree with what you see

But I will never let the bitter things you say ever get to me

Sometimes, days are like you say yet I don't agree with what you see

But I will never let the bitter things you say ever get to me

Get to me...

Get to me...

Sometimes, days are like you say yet I don't agree with what you see

But I will never let the bitter things you say ever get to me

Sometimes, days are like you say yet I don't agree with what you see

But I will never let the bitter things you say ever get to me

:D

Sia - Breathe Me

Help, I have done it again

I have been here many times before

Hurt myself again today

And, the worst part is there's no-one else to blame

Be my friend

Hold me, wrap me up

Unfold me

I am small

and needy

Warm me up

And breathe me

Ouch I have lost myself again

Lost myself and I am nowhere else to be found,

Yeah I think that I might break

Lost myself again and I feel unsafe

Be my friend

Hold me, wrap me up

Unfold me

I am small

and needy

Warm me up

And breathe me

Be my friend

Hold me, wrap me up

Unfold me

I am small

and needy

Warm me up

And breathe me

It was used in the last scene of Six Feet Under

Also, The Crüxshadows' "Birthday"

Roll out of the bed

Look in the mirror

And wonder who you are

Another year is come and gone

Today is your birthday

But it might be the last day of your life

What will you do if tomorrow is all gone?

You wont be young forever

Its only a fraction to the sum

You wont be young forever

Nor will anyone

So look at your life

Who you want to be before you die?

Look at your life

What you want to do?

Look at your life

Who you want to be before you die?

Look at your life

You havent gone forever

Then tell me what really matters

Is it the money and the fame

Or how many people might eventually know your name

But maybe you touch one life

And the world becomes a better place to be

Maybe you give their dreams another day

Another chance to be free

You wont be young forever

Its only a fraction to the sum

You wont be young forever

Nor will anyone

So look at your life

Who you want to be before you die?

Look at your life

What you want to do?

Look at your life

Who you want to be before you die?

Look into life

It all comes back to you

Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday *repeat*

Hand Me Down - Matchbox Twenty

Someday they'll find your small town world

On a big town avenue

Gonna make you like the way they talk

When they're talking to you

Gonna make you break out of your shell

Cuz they tell you to

Gonna make you like the way they lie

Better than the truth

They'll tell you everthing

You wanted someone else to say

They're gonna break your heart, yeah

From what I've seen

You're just one more hand me down

Cuz no one's tried to give you

What you need

So lay all your troubles down

I am with you now

Somebody oughta take you in

Try to make you love again

Try to make you like the way they feel

When they're under your skin

Never once do you think that they would lie

When they're holding you

Then you wonder why they haven't called

When they said they'd call you

You'll start to wonder

If you're ever gonna make it by

You'll start to think

You were born blind

From what I've seen

You're just one more hand me down

Cuz no one's tried to give you

What you need

So lay all your troubles down

I am with you now

I'm here for the hard times

The straight to your heart times

When living ain't easy

You can stand up against me

And maybe rely on me

And cry on me, yeah

Oh no, no, no

Someday they'll open up your world

Shake you down to the drawing board

Do their best to change you

They still can't erase you

From what I've seen

You're just one more hand me down

Cuz no one's tried to give you

What you need

So lay all your troubles down

I am with you now

Lay them down on me

You're just one more hand me down

And all those nights don't give you

What you need

So lay all your troubles down

On me

...and on the subject of Rob Thomas...

Problem Girl

Don't let 'em get where they're going to

You know they're only what they think of you

You heard of this emotional trickery

And you felt like you were learning the ropes

But where you're going now you don't know

And when the kids on the street say

What's your problem girl

And the weight of their smile's just

Too much for you to bear

When they all make you feel

Like you're a problem girl

Remember

You're no problem at all

You're no problem at all

Pride like promises can let you down

You thought that you'd be feeling

Better by now

You worry all the things they could do to you

You worry about the things they could say

Maybe you're seeing things the wrong way

Try

If you stand or you fall

You're no problem at all

What can I say? The guy gets me.

Hmmm....everytime I hear this, it makes me think of myself...

Fragile - Delta Goodrem

Six thoughts at once I can't focus on one

Seven days a week but my life has just begun

So caught in emotion and I'm overcome

As I'm falling down I come undone

Sometimes I feel like I'm alone

Sometimes I feel like I'm not that strong

Sometimes I feel so frail so small

Sometimes I feel vulnerable

Sometimes I feel a little fragile

A little fragile

In six thousand years what will this mean?

Words from the heart or a melody

So caught in emotion and I'm overcome

As I'm falling down I come undone

Sometimes I feel like I'm alone

Sometimes I feel like I'm not that strong

Sometimes I feel nothing at all

Sometimes I feel vulnerable

Sometimes I feel a little fragile

A little fragile

If people can see right through my eyes

like an open door that I can't disguise

I won't be afraid from the tears I cry

I'll not run I'll not hide this is how I feel inside

A little fragile

A little fragile

Sometimes I feel like I'm alone

Sometimes I feel like I'm not that strong

Sometimes I feel so frail so small

Sometimes I feel vulnerable

Sometimes I feel a little fragile

A little fragile

And there's another one, but I can't locate the lyrics anywhere at the moment......

Cinema Bizarre - Forever Or Never (This is so close to what I feel like, it's almost scary :P)

I Don't believe in miracles

I never did

Nothing ever happens here

So sick of it

I-I-I told you

I-I-I need to

Get - get myself into something new

I'm for something mystical, hysterical,

Dark, intantric, sexual

Am I gonna live forever

Said am I gonna live forever

Better make it now or never

( ever, ever )

Am I gonna live forever

Said am I gonna live forever

Gotta make it now or never

( forever or never )

I don't believe in fairytales

Too cynical

Everybody stop and stare

I let it go

I-I-I told you

I-I-I need to

Stick - stick - stick out

Just can't be like you

Sent myself to out of space

A better place

Gotta win the human race

Am I gonna live forever

Said am I gonna live forever

Better make it now or never

( ever, ever )

Am I gonna live forever

Said am I gonna live forever

Gotta make it now or never

( forever or never )

For my love

For my love

For my love, it's forever or never

For my love

For my love

For my love, it's forever or never

Am I gonna live forever

Said am I gonna live forever

Better make it now or never

( ever, ever )

Am I gonna live forever

Said am I gonna live forever

Gotta make it now or never

( forever or never )

Jesus & Gravity - Dolly Parton

I'm to the point where it don't add up.

I can't say I've come this far with my guitar on pure dumb luck.

That's not to say I know it all 'cause every time

I get too high up on my horse I fall.

'Cause I've got somethin' lifting me up,

somethin' holdin' me down.

Somethin' to give me wings and keep my feet on the ground.

I've got all I need, Jesus and gravity.

But I'm as bad as anyone

takin' all these blessin's in my life for granted one by one.

When I start to thinkin' it's all me, well,

somethin' comes along and knocks me right back on my knees.

And I've got somethin' lifting me up,

somethin' holding me down.

Somethin' to give me wings and keep my feet on the ground.

I've got all I need, Jesus and gravity.

He's my friend, He's my light.

He's my wings, He is my flight.

And I've got somethin' lifting me up,

somethin' holding me down.

Somethin' to give me wings and keep my feet on the ground.

I've got all I'm gonna need.

I've got Jesus, I've got Jesus.

I've got somethin' lifting me up,

somethin' holdin' me down.

Somethin' to give me wings and keep my feet on the ground.

I've got all I'll ever need,

'cause I've got Jesus and gravity.

Oh, I've got somethin' lifting me up,

somethin' holding me down.

Somethin' to give me wings and keep my feet on the ground.

I've got all I'll need, 'cause I've got Jesus and gravity.

Jesus, I've got Jesus, I've got Jesus.

He's my everything. He lifts me up, He gives me wings.

He gives me hope and He gives me strength,

and that's all I'll ever need as long as he keeps lifting me.

He is my life, He's my guide.

He is my wings, He is my flight.

Lift me, I got Jesus,

I've got Jesus and that's all I need.

The Veronicas - Hook Me Up

I'm tired of my life.

I feel so in between.

I'm sick of all my friends, girls can be so mean

I feel like throwin’ out everything I wear

I'm startin’ over new,

Coz I’m not even there.

Sometimes,

I wanna get away some place,

But I don't wanna stay too long.

Sometimes

I wanna brand new day,

Try to fit in where I don't belong

Hooooooooook hook me up.

I wanna feel the rain in my hair.

Hooooooooook hook me up.

Where should we go I don't even care.

Anywhere is good enough.

Hook me up.

Hook me up.

I like the lights turned out,

The sound of closing doors.

I’m not like other girls,

Who always feel so sure.

Of everything they are,

Of what their gonna be.

Sometimes I'm just a girl stuck inside of me; of me

Sometimes i wanna disappear some place,

But I don't wanna stay too long.

Sometimes,

I'm feelin’ so alone,

Tryin’ to fit in where I don't belong.

Anywhere is good enough.

Hook me up.

Hook me up.

Anywhere is good enough

Hook me up

Not gonna crash and burn,

I'm gonna find a way,

Nothin’ left to say

Anywhere is good enough

Hook me up

Hook me up

Hook me up

Tripod - "I Always Get into Stuff..."

I always get into stuff,

Just as it's finishing being cool.

I'm never quite brave enough,

To take a chance on something new.

That's for someone else to do,

Oo-oo-ooo-oo.

I'm never too far behind,

I follow the trends.

But I never take any risks,

I'm not ahead of the pack.

I'm just with the pack,

Towards the back.

I know all about moshing,

They do it in pits.

I'm really quite the Pearl Jam fan,

I've just bought their greatest hits.

Oh, I'm thinking of getting a nose ring,

Now that I've seen one on Neighbours.

Oo-oo-oo-ooo-oo.

I always get into stuff,

Just as it's finishing being cool.

I've got one of those little silver scooters out the back,

Which I bought in 2002.

Oo-oo-oo-ooo-oo,

Oo-oo-oo-ooo-oo.

Taking a chance,

That's just not for me.

If there's four levels of cool,

Then I'm at level three.

It goes:

Freakishly cool people first,

Cool people next,

Then there's me.

And then my Mum.

There's more, but I'm not sure it's appropriate towards the end. Whereas those lyrics are far TOO appropriate! :lol:
