What Lies Beneath by Breaking Benjamin Take a breath Hold it in Start a fight You won't win Had enough Let's begin Nevermind I don't care All in all You're no good You don't cry Like you should Let it go If you could When love dies in the end So I'll find what lies beneath Your sick twisted smile As I lie underneath Your cold jaded eyes Now you turn the tide on me 'Cause you're so unkind I will always be here For the rest of my life Here we go Does it hurt Say goodbye to this world I will not Be undone Come to life It gets worse All in all You're no good You don't cry Like you should I'll be gone when you fall Your sad life Says it all So I'll find what lies beneath Your sick twisted smile As I lie underneath Your cold jaded eyes Now you turn the tide on me 'Cause you're so unkind I will always be here For the rest of my life Don't carry me under You're the devil in disguise God sing for the hopeless I'm the one you left behind So I'll find what lies beneath Your sick twisted smile As I lie underneath Your cold jaded eyes Now you turn the tide on me 'Cause you're so unkind I will always be here For the rest of my life
I can argue that all music with lyrics is trying to indoctrinate you into believing what the writers believe. Or that all mainstream music that's played on the radio is trying to indoctrinate you. Either of those assumptions would be equally as ignorant and silly. Personally, a lot of the music here is not my cup of tea. That's ok, I'm not gonna scream at the rooftops that something doesn't have merit or that the musician had ill intent just because I'm not gung-ho about it. I just like seeing people passionate about music. This is not a music critique thread. Please, I'm requesting politely that you keep your posts to either connecting with others on music that you like or posting songs. So, let's try to stay on topic here. I'm going to assume that your intent is good and not take this any further.
You say you miss those days, but we did it right, right Quit the habit started smoking again You say you miss those days, but we did it right, right Quit the habit started smoking again I was crying, you were laughing Hit in the face, blood on the snow We were never happier We were never happier You say you miss those days, but we did it right, right You say you miss those days, but we did it right, right Quit the habit started smoking again
My bad, sometimes I'm terrible at sensing whether people are joking or not. I feel like a dumbass now. Are you joking? I would consider them a hardcore band. Orchid was active through the late 90's until 2001. They're worth checking out if you dig that song. Gotta love NES soundtracks. There is this band called the Advantage that does NES covers as a full rock band. They are kick ass. Nice! I'm glad to see classical music get some love on here.
----------- I love classical music as well as choral music. It has an ethereal quality that never ceases to amaze me. English Translation: Verb equal to God, the Almighty, our only hope, Eternal day of the earth and heavens; We break the silence of the peaceful night, Divine Saviour, look upon us! Fan the fire of your powerful grace upon us, So that all Hell may flee at the sound of your voice; Shake off the sleep of a languishing soul, Who has forgotten your laws! O Christ, be kind to these faithful people Who have now gathered in thanks. Listen to the chants they offer to your immortal glory, And may they come away fulfilled with your gifts!
FUCK YOU, DAD!! --- Below is a good song I heard on XM Octane Radio (channel 37) last night; TFK is a great band - have their album from 2012. TFK - Push This world can’t hold us, you can’t mess with soldiers There’s no cell big enough to hold us We came to be a wrecking ball to these boulders Know this, I ain’t scared of these cobras Over time, they’ve tried to just fold us They thought they could mess with this focus But there’s no room for these locusts ‘Cause real faith’s belief without borders Hold this We yell, but no one hears We persevere, as we approach the line We march, for all those fears, that kept us here This time they’re left behind Acting like they don’t notice But they’re just mad because they can’t mold us Told you never underestimate soldiers ‘Cause you can build a thousand walls You can’t hold us If we just keep running away We’ll never make it alive Until we stand and we fight Aim, fire, and blow it away We’re storming enemy lines Leaving no one behind This rock can’t hold us ‘Cause the light has shown us No fear’s big enough to own us We were never meant to fit in these folders Know this, I ain’t scared of these posers Over time we all face opponents They thought they could mess with this focus They forgot, the end of the climb’s the coldest, known as Life’s a battlefield of moments, hold this We yell, but no one hears We persevere, as we approach the line We march, for all those fears, that kept us here This time they’re left behind Acting like they don’t notice But they’re just mad because they can’t mold us Told you never underestimate soldiers ‘Cause you can build a thousand walls You can’t hold us If we just keep running away We’ll never make it alive Until we stand and we fight Aim, fire, and blow it away We’re storming enemy lines Leaving no one behind If we just keep running away We’ll never make it alive Until we stand and we fight Aim, fire, and blow it away We’re storming enemy lines Leaving no one behind If we just keep running away We’ll never make it alive Until we stand and we fight Aim, fire, and blow it away We’re storming enemy lines Leaving no one behind
My observations bolded. First in line For the wishing well, well, well For a long time Can't you tell? First in line Give me a new start Give me a new page Hopeful, eager, maybe even desperate, but a wishing well doesn't help anyone. Also feel like I'm going through motions, trying to make something stick. Futile. You see I would have killed Romeo, and saved Juliet But I don't write stories, no, that time won't forget This line evokes tragedy. I, too, prefer the bittersweet ending of a dead lover, but the hope for the living loved. Instead, Shakespeare killed them both. It must have been the right choice, because the narrative stuck over the centuries. We're doomed. So won't you pass me the kerosene Let's burn to the ground You've been looking for meaning Did you like what you found? Sometimes it feels like it would be a lot easier to destroy the past. As if that could be done. And life doesn't always hold the answers we want; in fact it usually doesn't. Forgive me, I've been lonely Self explanatory. Not that I deserve forgiveness, but I still want it. But it is not like I don't know my way I don't know my way Contradiction. I know how to beat porn. I've had 80+ day and a 60+ day streaks, respectively. I'm in a better place now than ever before. But I still screw it up and I'm in a place for recovery where I don't feel as confident in the experiences of others. I'm getting into uncharted territory. I'm frustrated. Oh look at you all shining And didn't you do well, well, well, well For a long time In all honesty, I have nothing for this. How could I tell you my secret? The married addict's conundrum. You love her. You don't want to hurt her. Telling her about your addiction will hurt her, she won't understand. Better to protect her from it. Protect her from yourself. It's all a lie. I've covered that before, you can check out the link in my signature. But the line is in past tense, the secret is out now. There's regret that I didn't tell sooner, didn't start working on this before. I don't know where to go from here Give me a new page Doubt, and desperation There are some things, that will never change Fear You see I would have killed Romeo, and saved Juliet But I don't write stories, that time won't forget So won't you pass me the kerosene Let's burn to the ground You'v been looking for meaning Did you like what you found? Forgive me I've been lonely But it is not like I don't Know my way, but I don't know why Oh Romeo, Oh Romeo, Oh Romeo, Oh Romeo, Oh Romeo... Forgive me, I've been lonely But it is not like I don't know my way And I don't know my way The particulars are all the same, repetition underscores stagnation. Voicing this is not cathartic release. I'm not better now. This isn't part of my healing, it's just an expression of emotion.
no worries. He deserved it metal and chiptune are my two fav music genre . omg i love homemade metal, raw guitar + screaming=addiction I can sleep forever with this song. thanks man stole this song from someone Everybody's always talking at me Everybody's trying to get in my head I wanna listen to my own heart talking I need to count on myself instead Did you ever Lose yourself to get what you want? Did you ever Get on a ride, then wanna get off? ... Read more: Zac Efron - Bet On It Lyrics | MetroLyrics
Something about this one I'm feeling it right now (testoserone up?) - back to the 90's - no 80s! Full lyrics in the Youtube comments for both. I guess war against porn maybe, and how we lose our true selves.. Barking of machinegun fire, does nothing to me now Sounding of the clock that ticks, get used to it somehow More a man, more stripes you bare, glory seeker trends Bodies fill the fields I see The slaughter never ends Soldier boy, made of clay Now an empty shell Twenty one, only son But he served us well Bred to kill, not to care Do just as we say Finished here, greetings death And of course the title track of the album, especially when it comes to addiction: End of passion play, crumbling away I'm your source of self-destruction Veins that pump with fear, sucking darkest clear Leading on your deaths' construction Taste me you will see More is all you need You're dedicated to How I'm killing you Come crawling faster Obey your master Your life burns faster Obey your master Master Master of puppets I'm pulling your strings Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams Blinded by me, you can't see a thing Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream Master Master Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream Master Master EDIT: You can't exactly fap when listening to Metallica...
Just curious.. What's the first physical music album you guys bought? For me it would have to be either the carter 2 or T.I vs T.I.P or maybe it was j. cole's cole world: sideline story.. How bout y'all?
I would like to say I got something amazing....but the first album I bought was "Life In General" by MxPx, specifically for the song "Chick Magnet". They were also the first band I went to see in concert. Fuck, I'm old.
I was the youngest in a very large family and all of my older brothers loved mainstream R&B, boy bands and female pop stars: Boys II Men, Hansen, NSYNC, Backstreet Boys, Brittaney Spears, Michael Jackson, Annie Lennox, Aqua, Ace of Base, Spice Girls. I dare say that the first cassette that I ever bought was a "Sugar Ray" single in first grade or something equally as terrible. I'm surprised that I remember that. I don't remember the song at all. I just know that it's something that I would hate now. I did kind of get into Ace of Base and Aqua embarrassingly enough. I didn't really start getting a real sense of my own taste until I started buying movie soundtracks a few years later. I think that the first soundtrack that I bought was the Godzilla (the shitty one with Matthew Broderick) soundtrack. Then I started getting really into RPGs: Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross, Final Fantasy VII-X, Earthbound. This is when I really started to actually get passionate about music. It was all so different... It had a sincerity I had never heard before. It moved me on a very primal level, even bringing me to tears or giving me goosebumps. This is probably the only music that I still actually enjoy from my youth. Everything before that was just kind of drowning out the silence, I just listened to it because it's what other people liked and I thought that I should too. Hell even a lot of the music that I listened to in highschool, I only listened to because my friends really liked it. I still love Radiohead, though my first exposure to them was their song Talkshow Host featured on the Romeo + Juliet soundtrack. The Matrix soundtrack also changed my life. I wouldn't take back any of my experience even though a lot of it is embarrassing to admit and I don't like or listen to about 90% of what I used to listen to. I learned what I liked and got better and better at narrowing that down. Ten year old me listened to this song over and over and over and now I know why. It's so god damned good.
The funny thing is: that band, Orchid, was originally labeled as "screamo". What people now consider screamo is like a completely different genre. It originally was more of a hardcore/metal subgenre than the poppy stuff that eventually carried on the torch of the genre name. If you look up first wave screamo there was some amazing hardcore music that came out of it: Rites of Spring, Embrace, Heroin, Antioch Arrow, Orchid, pg.99, Reversal of Man, Off Minor, Swing Kids, Saetia, Neil Perry, combatwoundedveteran, Ampere, Circle Takes the Square, Gospel, Portraits of Past, City of Caterpiller, Funeral Diner, etc.... I love a lot of hardcore/metal stuff from screamo to sludge to mathcore to powerviolence. Electronic music is great. There are some pretty good chiptune artists out there. I've always been more into IDM: Aphex Twin, Autechre, Boards of Canada, etc... I think that my favorite chiptune artist is Disasterpeace. http://music.disasterpeace.com/album/rise-of-the-obsidian-interstellar
Oh hell yes! Kill 'em All, Ride the Lightning, and Master of Puppets are their best albums imo. Everything else they did was meh, but omg those three albums were groundbreaking!
