:ph34r: on another site they had a lyrics thread....so I thought I would make one here!

Hoobastank - The Reason

I'm not a perfect person
There's many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you

I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with everyday
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
Thats why i need you to hear

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is You [x4]

I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you

I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you

Linkin Park - With You is probably my favorite.

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

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

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

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

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

O.o I love hoobistank's the reason too. Here's my fave:

"Give Up The Grudge" - Gob

Don't make me listen to the stupid broken record again
The needle's skippin' and repeatin' never reaching the end
You know you're bitching and complaining like you've got it so tough
We're sick of all your crying will you ever shut up?

So keep bleeding your fake blood 'till no one ever sees it
If that's the best you can make up at least act like you mean it

[Chorus]
Give up the grudge
[Clean:] Better shut your mouth
[Explicit:] Shut your f**king mouth
why you gotta judge everybody but yourself
Take a look around you
There ain't nobody home
I may be a loser
But at least I'm not alone

Your mercedes won't start
Yeah that's a crying shame
I guess 90K a year buys nothing but complaints
The people in my neighborhood think that I'm a threat
While the boss gets richer they get deeper in debt!

So keep bleeding your fake blood 'till no one even sees it
If that's the best you can make up at least act like you mean it

[Repeat Chorus 6X]

Here, I'll just type the whole Use Your Illusion I album... Razz

(but I am a loser for actually typing this ungodly long thing out...)

Title: Coma
Artist: Guns n' Roses
Album: Use Your Illusion I

Hey you caught me in a coma
And I don't think I wanna
Ever come back to this...world again
I kinda like it in a coma
'Cause no one's ever gonna
Oh make me come back to this...world again

Now I feel as if I'm floating away
I can't feel the pressure, and I like it this way
But my body's callin', my body's callin'
Why don't you come back to this...world again
Suspended deep in a sea of black
I've got the light at the end
I've got the bones on the mast
Well I've gone sailin', I've gone sailin'
I could leave so easily
While friends are callin' back to me
I said they're, they're leavin' it all up to me when
All I needed was clarity and
Someone to tell me what the fuck is goin' on!
God damn it.

Slippin' farther and farther away
It's a miracle how long we can stay
In a world our minds created
In a world that's full of shit!

Please, understand me
I'm climbin' through the wreckage
Of all my twisted dreams
But this cheap investigation just can't stifle all my screams
And I'm waitin' at the crossroads, waitin' for you
Waitin' for you
Where are you?

No one's gonna bother me anymore.
No one's gonna mess with my head no more
I can't understand what all the fightin's for
But it's so nice here down off the shore
I wish you could see this 'cause there's nothin' to see
It's peaceful here and it's fine with me
Not like the world where I used to live
I never really wanted to live.

Zap him again
Zap the son of a bitch again!

"Listen to me, Axl are you listening to me? No! Don't walk away from me. Get back over here. You're such a fuckin' prick. I'm tired of your bullshit all the time. All you wanna do is have sex sex sex, all the time. I can't take any of your shit anymore!................I love you."

Ya live your life like it's a coma
So won't ya tell me why we'd wanna
With all the reasons you give it's, it's kinda hard to believe
But who am I to tell you that I've seen
Any reason why you should stay?
Maybe we'd be better off without you anyway!
I got a one way ticket on your last chance ride
Got a one way ticket to your suicide
Got a one way ticket and there's no way out alive

And all this crass communication that has left you in the cold
Isn't much for consolation when you feel so weak and old
But if home is where the heart is then there's stories to be told
No you don't need a doctor, no one else can heal your soul
Got your mind in submission
Got your life on the line
But nobody pulled the trigger
They just stepped aside
They be down by the water while you
Watch 'em wavin' goodbye
They be callin' in the mornin'
They be hangin' on the phone
They be waitin' for an answer, but you know nobody's home
And when the bells stopped ringin' it was
Nobody's fault but your own.

There were always ample warnings
There were always subtle signs
And you would have seen it comin'
But we gave you too much time
And when you say that no one's listenin'
Why'd your best friend drop a dime
Sometimes we get so tired of waitin' for a way to spend our time

And it's so easy to be social
It's so easy to be cool
Yeah it's easy to be hungry when you ain't got shit to lose
And I wish that I could help you
With what you hope to find
But I'm still out here waiting watching reruns of my life
When you reach the point of breaking
Know it's gonna take some time
To heal the broken memories that another man
Would need just to survive.

O.o im surprised people actually posted on here! Fire,I like any song by Hoobastank *_*

Hoobastank - What Happened To Us?

[Verse 1:]
I thought it was too good to be true
I found somebody who understands me
someone who would help me to get through
and fill an emptiness i had inside me
but you kept inside and I just denied
some things that we should have both said
I knew it was too good to be true
cause i'm the only one who understands me

[Chorus:]
what happened to us
we used to be so perfect, now were lost and lonely
what happened to us
I know deep inside I worry did i lose my only?

[Verse 2:]
remember they thought we were too young
to really know what it takes to make it
but we had survived off what we have done
and we could show them all that they're mistaken
who could have known the lies that would grow
until we could see right through them
remember they knew it we were too young
we still don't know what it takes to make it

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
We could have made it work, we could have found a way,
should have done our best to see another day
but we kept it all inside until it was too late
and now we're both alone, the consequence we pay
for throwing it all away, for throwing it all away...

[Chorus]

Yeah, I don't like reading song lyrics unless I know the song. Because most aren't exactly poetic.

Song: Girls Not Grey
Singer:AFI

I'll lay me down tonight, much further down,
swim in the calm tonight. This art does drown.

What follows me as the whitest lace of light
(swallowed whole) just begs to be imbrued?
What follows has lead me to this place where I belong,
with all erased. What follows.

All insects sing tonight, the coldest sound.
I'd send god's grace tonight, could it be found.

What follows me as the whitest lace of light
(swallowed whole) just begs to be imbrued?
What follows has lead me to this place where I belong,
with all erased.

I'll lay me down tonight much further down...
watch stars go out tonight. On sinking ground
I'll lay me down.
I'll lay me down.

What follows me as the whitest lace of light
(swallowed whole) just begs to be imbrued?
What follows has lead me to this place where I belong,
with all erased.

What follows will swallow whole!
What follows will swallow whole!

One of my favoites

Title: Closer
Artist: Nine Inch Nails
Album: Closer To God

you let me violate you, you let me desecrate you
you let me penetrate you, you let me complicate you
help me i broke apart my insides, help me i've got no soul to sell
help me the only thing that works for me, help me get away from myself
i want to f**k you like an animal
i want to feel you from the inside
i want to f**k you like an animal
my whole existence is flawed
you get me closer to god
you can have my isolation, you can have the hate that it brings
you can have my absence of faith, you can have my everything
help me tear down my reason, help me its' your sex i can smell
help me you make me perfect, help me become somebody else
i want to f**k you like an animal
i want to feel you from the inside
i want to f**k you like an animal
my whole existence is flawed
you get me closer to god
through every forest, above the trees
within my stomach, scraped off my knees
i drink the honey inside your hive
you are the reason i stay alive

"Give Up The Grudge" <3 Let's see...

"I'm Gonna Smile" by Lonestar

I still remember the night we met
You said you loved my smile
But your love for me was like a summer breeze
Oh, it lasted for a while
I could hold on a little tighter I know
But when you love someone you gotta let 'em go so

[b]I'm gonna smile
'Cause I want to make you happy
Laugh, so you can't see me cry
I'm gonna let you go in style
And even if it kills me
I'm gonna smile[/b]

Kiss me once for the good times, baby
Kiss me twice for goodbye
You can't help how you don't feel
And it doesn't matter why
Give me a chance to bow out gracefully
'Cause that's how I want you to remember me

I'm gonna smile
'Cause I want to make you happy
Laugh, so you can't see me cry
I'm gonna let you go in style
And even if it kills me
I'm gonna smile

I'm gonna smile
So you can find the courage
Laugh, so you won't see me hurtin'
I'm gonna let you go in style
And even if it kills me
I'm gonna smile

"Family Portrait" by Pink

Momma please stop cryin, I can't stand the sound
Your pain is painful and its tearin' me down
I hear glasses breakin as I sit up in my bed
I told dad you didn't mean those nasty things you
said

You fight about money, bout me and my brother
And this I come home to, this is my shelter
It ain't easy growin up in World War III
Never knowin what love could be, you'll see
I don't want love to destroy me like it has done
my family

Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Mommy I'll do anything
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Daddy please don't
leave

Daddy please stop yellin, I can't stand the sound

Make mama stop cryin, cuz I need you around
My mama she loves you, no matter what she says
its true
I know that she hurts you, but remember I love
you, too

I ran away today, ran from the noise, ran away
Don't wanna go back to that place, but don't have
no choice, no way
It ain't easy growin up in World War III
Never knowin what love could be, well I've seen
I don't want love to destroy me like it did my
family

Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Mommy I'll do anything
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Daddy please don't
leave

[b]In our family portrait, we look pretty happy
Let's play pretend, let's act like it comes
naturally
I don't wanna have to split the holidays
I don't want two addresses
I don't want a step-brother anyways
And I don't want my mom to have to change her
last name [/b]

In our family portrait we look pretty happy
We look pretty normal, let's go back to that
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
Let's play pretend, act like it goes naturally

In our family portrait we look pretty happy
(Can we work it out? Can we be a family?)
We look pretty normal, let's go back to that
(I promise I'll be better, Mommy I'll do
anything)
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
(Can we work it out? Can we be a family?)
Let's play pretend act and like it comes so
naturally
(I promise I'll be better, Daddy please don't
leave)
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
(Can we work it out? Can we be a family?)
We look pretty normal, let's go back to that
(I promise I'll be better, Daddy please don't
leave)

Daddy don't leave
Daddy don't leave
Daddy don't leave
Turn around please
Remember that the night you left you took my
shining star?
Daddy don't leave
Daddy don't leave
Daddy don't leave
Don't leave us here alone

Mom will be nicer
I'll be so much better, I'll tell my brother
Oh, I won't spill the milk at dinner
I'll be so much better, I'll do everything right
I'll be your little girl forever
I'll go to sleep at night

"Iris" by the Goo Goo Dolls

And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
[b]You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be[/b]
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
'Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

[b]And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am[/b]

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
And you bleed just to know you're alive

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

[b]I just want you to know who I am[/b]
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

That's it, for now Smile

Lyrics <3

Iris is an awsome song. I'm surprised that some one besides me remembers it, because it's old by radio standards. Um...yay for you for posting it.

I have a lot of their songs that I never got around to listening to. I can't remember most of them, because it was right at the end of my Bowling For Soup phase. Iris IS a beautiful song. I feel it describes me, in a way. I just like it so so much! "Emotionless", I think it's called, by Good Charlotte is a good song, too. Even if you don't like Good Charlotte, you might like that song.

I have one! But I only like the first two parts:
[COLOR=blue][b]Eye in the sky[/b]
Don't think sorry's easily said
Don't try turning tables instead
You've taken lots of Chances before
But I'm not gonna give anymore
Don't ask me
That's how it goes
Cause part of me knows what you're thinkin'

Don't say words you're gonna regret
Don't let the fire rush to your head
I've heard the accusation before
And I ain't gonna take any more
Believe me
The sun in your Eyes
Made some of the lies worth believing

Here's another!:
[b]Spider- Oingo Boingo[/b]
Spider crawling, on the wall
I see him and he, sees it all...
And he sees it all
I fell down in that lazy place,
Where the English language can't - penetrate and I
Saw your mouth moving - just forget it and lie here with me
Maybe we should just, climb under the sheets
Where the words they don't get in the way
We were wondering, if you recall
Is this the end of it - end of everything
We were wondering, wonder
Spider crawling - in my left ear
Has a message I - want you to hear
Hope you're happy - found what you're looking for
Do you miss me, miss me at all?
Spider tells me, saw you yesterday
With somebody new - what can I say?
What can I...
Spider crawling, I crawl with him -
We go everywhere, we see everything
We are falling, we are falling, falling to nowhere
Hope you're happy - found what you're looking for
Do you miss me, miss me at all?
Spider crawling, spider crawling, spider crawling...

Two more!:
[b]The air-conditioned nightmare- Mr. Bungle[/b]
Inside of me today
There is no one
Only asteroids and empty space
A waste
...They're looking through the windows at me...
Get me out of this air-conditioned nightmare
Rots your brain just like a catchy tune
You will hate life more than life hates you
Happiness is your illness in an air-conditioned nightmare
...Burn all your mementos of me...
Walkin' on air
Up from the wheelchair
I'll find the suicide
That I deserve
Walkin' on sand
Forgotten where I am
But it's so comfortable
Here in the sun...
I only see rainbows
Now that the bandages are gone
Through my window, there
From the skyscrapers
Down to the submarines
Birds and fairies
Sanctuaries
Atop the rolling hills of hell
These words are sledgehammers
Of truth
That pound the iron heart
Of sin
Bloody smiling
Vandalizing
Where's my rainbow?
Where's my halo?
There's my halo!

Ok, last one, promise!!:
[b]Invisible- Clay Aiken[/b]
Whatcha’ doin’ tonight
I wish I could be a fly on your wall
Are you really alone
Who's stealin' your dreams
Why can't I bring you into my life
What would it take to make you see that I'm alive

[Chorus]

If I was invisible
Then I could just watch you in your room
If I was invincible
I'd make you mine tonight
If hearts were unbreakable
Then I could just tell you where I stand
I would be the smartest man
If I was invisible
(Wait..I already am)

Saw your face in the crowd
I call out your name
You don't hear a sound
I keep tracing your steps
Each move that you make
Wish I could read what goes through your mind
Wish you could touch me with the colors of your life

[Chorus]

If I was invisible
Then I could just watch you in your room
If I was invincible
I'd make you mine tonight
If hearts were unbreakable
Then I can just tell you where I stand
I would be the smartest man
If I was invisible
(Wait..I already am)

I reach out
But you don't even see me
Even when I'm scream out
Baby, you don't hear me
I am nothing without you
Just a shadow passing through...

[Repeat Chorus]

If I was invisible...
If I was invisible...
If I was invisible...
If I was invisible...
If I was invisible...
If I was invisible...
