Song of the Month 05-2008

Title: Figure .09
Artist: Linkin Park
Album: Meteora

Nothing ever stops all these thoughts and the pain attached to them
Sometimes I wonder why this is happening
It’s like nothing I can do would distract me when
I think of how I shot myself in the back again
‘Cause from the infinite words I could say I
Put all pain you gave to me on display
But didn’t realize instead of setting it free I
Took what I hated and made it a part of me

(Never goes away)
(Never goes away)

[Chorus]
(And now)
(You’ve become a part of me)
(You’ll always be right here)
(You’ve become a part of me)
(You’ll always be my fear)
(I can’t separate)
(Myself from what I’ve done)
(Giving up a part of me)
(I’ve let myself become you)

Hearing your name the memories come back again
I remember when it started happening
I see you in every thought I had and then
The thoughts slowly found words attached to them
And I knew as they escaped away
I was committing myself to them and everyday
I regret saying those things cuz now I see that I
Took what I hated and made it a part of me

(Never goes away)
(Never goes away)

[Chorus]
(And now)
(You’ve become a part of me)
(You’ll always be right here)
(You’ve become a part of me)
(You’ll always be my fear)
(I can’t separate)
(Myself from what I’ve done)
(Giving up a part of me)
(I’ve let myself become you)

(Never goes away)
(Never goes away)
(Never goes away)
(Never goes away)

(Get away from me)
Give me my space back you gotta just
(Go)
Everything comes down the memories of
(You)
I’ve kept it in but now I’m letting you
(Know)
I let you go so get away from
(Me)
Give me my space back you gotta just
(Go)
Everything comes down the memories of
(You)
I’ve kept it but now I’m letting you
(Know)
I let you go

(And now)
(You’ve become a part of me)
(You’ll always be right here)
(You’ve become a part of me)
(You’ll always be my fear)
(I can’t separate)
(Myself from what I’ve done)
(Giving up a part of me)
(I’ve let myself become you)

I’ve let myself become you
I’ve let myself become lost inside these thoughts of you
Giving up a part of me, I’ve let myself become you

Title: No More Sorrow
Artist: Linkin Park
Album: Minutes To Midnight

Are you lost
In your lies
Do you tell yourself I don’t realize

Your crusade’s a disguise
Replace freedom with fear
You trade money for lives

I’m aware of what you’ve done

[Chorus:]
No more sorrow
I’ve paid for your mistakes
Your time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced

I see pain
I see need
I see liars and thieves
Abuse power with greed

I had hope
I believed
But I’m beginning to think that I’ve been deceived

You will pay for what you’ve done

[Chorus]

Thieves and hypocrites
Thieves and hypocrites
Thieves and hypocrites

[Chorus x2]

Your time has come to be replaced
Your time has come to be erased

Title: In the End
Artist: Linkin Park
Album: Hybrid Theory

Original Music Video

Linkin Park – Live In Texas – In The End

Indian Parody

Another Parody :) )

(It starts with)
One thing / I don’t know why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind / I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time
All I know
time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It’s so unreal
Didn’t look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on / but didn’t even know
Wasted it all just to
Watch you go
I kept everything inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart
What it meant to me / will eventually / be a memory / of a time when I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
One thing / I don’t know why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind / I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how
I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I’m surprised it got so (far)
Things aren’t the way they were before
You wouldn’t even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me
In the end
You kept everything inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart
What it meant to me / will eventually / be a memory / of a time when I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I’ve put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There’s only one thing you should know
I’ve put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There’s only one thing you should know
I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter

Song of the Month 02-2008

Title: With You
Artist: Linkin Park
Album: Hybrid Theory

I woke up in a dream today
To the cold of the static, and put my cold feet on the floor
Forgot all about yesterday
Remembering I’m pretending to be where I’m not anymore
A little taste of hypocrisy
And I’m left in the wake of the mistake, slow to react
Even though you’re so close to me
You’re still so distant, and I can’t bring you back

Pre chorus:
It’s true
The way I feel
Was promised by your face
The sound of your voice
Painted on my memories
Even if you’re not with me
I’m with you

You
Now I see
Keeping everything inside
You
Now I see
Even when I close my eyes

I hit you and you hit me back
We fall to the floor, the rest of the day stands still
Fine line between this and that
When things go wrong I pretend the past isn’t real
Now I’m trapped in this memory
And I’m left in the wake of the mistake, slow to react
Even though you’re close to me
You’re still so distant, and I can’t bring you back

Pre chorus
Chorus (2x)

No, no matter how far we’ve come
I can’t wait to see tomorrow
No matter how far we’ve come
I can’t wait to see tomorrow
With you

Chorus (3x)

Song of the Month 01-2008

Title: Untitled
Artist: Simple Plan

I open my eyes
I try to see but I’m blinded by the white light
I can’t remember how
I can’t remember why
I’m lying here tonight

And I can’t stand the pain
And I can’t make it go away
No I can’t stand the pain

How could this happen to me
I made my mistakes
I’ve got no where to run
The night goes on
As I’m fading away
I’m sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me

Everybody’s screaming
I try to make a sound but no one hears me
I’m slipping off the edge
I’m hanging by a thread
I wanna start this over again

So I try to hold onto a time when nothing mattered
And I can’t explain what happened
And I can’t erase the things that I’ve done
No I can’t

How could this happen to me
I made my mistakes
I’ve got no where to run
The night goes on
As I’m fading away
I’m sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me

I made my mistakes
I’ve got no where to run
The night goes on
As I’m fading away
I’m sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me

Sagasanakya ne Kimi no namida no furusato
     As you are searching, for your hometown of tears
Hoho wo tsutatte ochita shizuku ga Doko kara kita no ka wo

Dekakerun da ne Sore ja koko de miokuru yo
     When you make your leave, i’ll be there to see you off
Tsuite iketara ureshiin dakedo Hitori de ikanakya ne

Ryukku no naka wa kara ni shita kana
     Though you carry nothing with you
Arekore tsumetara Omoi darou
     To hold something would prove too heavy
Sono nureta hoho ni Hibiita kotoba

Sore dake de ii Kikoeta darou
     After all this time, you can still hear them

[Ref]
“Ai ni kita yo Ai ni kita yo Kimi ni ai ni kitan da yo
     I’ve come, I’ve come, I’ve come here to see you

Boku wo shitte hoshikute Kitan da yo”
     I’ve come because I want to know you

     It’s the same sky we both look at, so you’re never alone
     
Nigete kita bun dake kyori ga aru no sa

Kimi ni shitte hoshikute Kitan da yo”

Kimi no namida ga umaresodatta furusato ga aru darou…
     This is the place where your tears had fallen…

Atarashii shizuku ga koboreta yo

Naoranai kizu wo nurashita yo

Subete wa kono tame Kono toki no tame

Totemo nagai tabi wo koete
     Everything was because of this journey

Chanto mite hoshikute”
     I’ve come because I want you to see

“Ai ni kita yo Ai ni kita yo Kimi ni ai ni kitan da yo
     I’ve come, I’ve come, I’ve come here to see you
Kimi no namida no furusato kara Kawakikitta sekai made
     From your hometown of tears. To the dry, distant world
Boku wo shitte hoshikute …
     Because I want you to know me …
Kimi wo shitte hoshikute Kitan da yo”
     Because I want to know you, I’ve come

Warawanaide ne Ore mo zutto matteru yo
     Smile, i’ll always be here waiting
Wasurenaide ne Kaeru basho ga aru koto wo
     But don’t ever forget, you’ll always have a place to come back

LYRICS
Hora, kaze ga ugokidashita

ENGLISH TRANSLATION (credit goes to someone else, thanks)

Look! the wind has moved
Still, I’m not giving up yet
I can feel the sun behind the clouds
A headwind appear…

This chest is drawing a dream ,
to anywhere high above
I am dancing in freedom.
My heart draws a dream.

As I land on the other side and open my eyes…
I feel that I could find you smiling before me
…how wonderful it will be if I find you there.

Hey, if our breath joined (as one),
Surely we’ll fly higher.
From there I wonder if we could see the future?
It is (finally) patched together

This chest is drawing a dream
I am crossing over ,far through time
MY HEART DRAWS A DREAM
Oh, it will be great If there would come a day when my dream could come true
…that you could be there smiling at me.

Come on. Let’s reach out our hands
Now, we will be untied
Our hearts won’t be bound by anyone
Our eyes will find the sunlight
no matter how the world would become

Everybody…Let’s draw a dream. Let’s draw a dream. Let’s draw a dream.
Our hearts draw a dream.
Let’s draw a dream. Let’s draw a dream. Let’s draw a dream.
Look…
As I land on the other side and open my eyes…
how wonderful it will be to find you smiling at me
