Let Down by Dead by Sunrise

Self explanatory to be honest...
Chester Bennington's solo project with members of Julien-K/Orgy
Off of the amazing album 'Out of Ashes'
Makes me sad

Let Down

And the tears fall like rain, down my face again,
Oh the words you wouldn't say,
And the games you played with my unfoolish heart,
Oh I should have known this from the start.

Oh the winter and spring,
Going hand in hand just like my love and pain,
How the thought of you cuts deep within the vein,
Oh this brand new skin stretched across scarred terrain.

I don't wanna be let down,
I don't wanna live my life again,
Don't wanna be lead down the same old road.
Said I don't wanna be let down,
I don't wanna live my lies again,
Don't wanna be lead down the same old road.

All those years down the drain,
Love was not enough when you want everything,
What I gave to you and now the end will start,
Oh I should have listened to my heart...

Cause I don't wanna be let down,
I don't want to live my life again,
Don't want to be lead down the same old road.
I don't wanna be let down,
I don't wanna live my lies again,
Don't wanna be lead down the same old road.

I don't wanna be let down,
I don't want to live my life again,
Don't want to be lead down the same old road.
I don't wanna be let down,
I don't wanna live my lies again,
Don't wanna be lead down the same old road.

It's Goin' Down by The X-Ecutioners feat Linkin Park

Somebody asked me if I had to listen to one song for the rest of my life, what would it be? Naturally, I knew it would be something to do with Linkin Park and/or Mike Shinoda. But earlier I saw this video again and I knew that this would be the song. I would never get sick of this.
Honest to God, I have no idea how Shinoda comes up with these lyrics...but they are...indescribable.

It's Goin' Down


It's going down,
The rhythm projects 'round the next sound,
Reflects the complex hybrid dialect now,
Detects the mesh of many elements compressed down,
The melting pot of a super-futuresque style,
The combination of the vocal caress,
With lungs the gasp for breath from emotional stress,
With special effects,
And a distorted collage,
Carefully lodged between beats of rhythmic barrage.

It's going down,
A logical progression on the timeline,
The seperation narrowed down to a fine line,
To blur the edges so they blend together properly,
Take you on an audible odyssey now;
It's going down.

Put it out for the world to see,
LP and X-Men to the 10th degree. (It's goin down)
Nobody in the world is safe,
When we melt down the wax in your record crate (It's going down)
Put it out for the world to see
LP and X-Men to the 10th degree (It's goin down)
Nobody in the world is safe
When we melt down the wax in your record crate (It's going down)

Once again it is;
Composed sentences all together venomous,
The four elements of natural force projected daily through the sound of the source,
Everybody on board as we blend:
The sword with the pen,
The mightiest of the weapons swinging right from the chin,
To elevate of mental states long gone with the wind,
To defend men from shoddy imitation pretends,
It's going down,
Style assimilation readily,
Trekking through the weaponry,
Of the pure pedigree,
Cleverly seeing through whatever is ahead of me,
Whatever the weather be,
We invent it steadily,
It's going down sub-terrestrial high,
I rhyme regiment that's calling the shots,
Exectution of colloborative plots,
Ready to bring the seperation of style to a stop.

It's going down,
A logical progression on the timeline,
The seperation narrowed down to a fine line,
To blur the edges so they blend together properly,
Take you on an audible odyssey now;
It's going down.

X-men 'bout to blast off world wide
X-men 'bout to blast off world wide
'Bout to blast off world wide
And you do it like this
Just like this

Put put...put it up
I said it goes like this
And you do it like this
It's going down
Put put...put it up
I said it goes like this
And you do it like this
It's going down

Juneau - Funeral for a Friend

I love it when you listen to lyrics and they just spell out a relationship you have with someone. This song does this for me and it's also amazing.
2 versions. Original and acoustic. I prefer the acoustic if I'm being honest but the original is great too. But my favourite FAFF songs are the acoustics (Juneau,History,Building,Charlie Don't Surf, etc.)
Figured I'd put the lyrics up for this.

Juneau by Funeral for a Friend

Tied to the testing of wills,
When my heart breaks and spills
Left to the sight of the sky,
In your arms I'm defined
In the minds of your enemies,
In the minds of your enemies.
And I'm stoned in the eyes of your foolishness.

If this is what I'm meant for,
I'm no longer interested,
Fall forward to even the score,
Just a thought to you.

Tied to the testing of wills,
When my heart breaks and spills,
Left to the sight of the sky,
In your arms I'm defined.
In the minds of your enemies,
In the minds of your enemies.
And I'm stoned in the eyes of your foolishness

And I'm nothing more than a line in your book,
Yet I'm nothing more than a line in your book,
Yet I'm nothing more than a line in your book,
Yet I'm nothing more than a line in your book,
In your book, in your book...

If this is what I'm meant for,
I'm no longer interested,
Fall forward to even the score,
Just a thought to you.

(Just a thought to you)
(Just a thought to you)

Yet I'm nothing more...
Yet I'm nothing more than a line in your book,
Yet I'm nothing more than a line in your book.

Burning Alone Forever

Ok I am so damn proud of this. I have the entire song mapped out in my head. I'll get right on that but here are the lyrics. Not sure about the title it might change. Some other lines/words might change but I doubt it...I'm really happy with this.
Ennjoy x


Burning Alone Forever


This damn blood is running down my arms,
Staining everything,
Oh pain you couldn’t have chosen,
A less worthy mark,
I don’t deserve your passion,
Don’t deserve to make it last,
I can’t keep the life that’s killing me.

(Don't leave)
I can’t hold the truths you hold at me.
(Don’t plead)
I can’t stop the pain that’s stopping me.
So don’t leave me here alone.
Don’t keep alive this burning soul.


This damn love is so ruined for me,
Breaks my fragile heart,
Oh God you shouldn’t have chosen,
Shadowed over-cast,
I can’t keep its sanity,
Don’t deserve to make it last,
I can’t lift the curse that’s killing me.

(Don't leave)
I can’t hold the truths you hold at me.
(Don't plead)
I can’t stop the pain that’s stopping me,
So don’t leave me here alone.
Don’t keep alive this burning soul.
Ooh…
Don’t leave me here for show,
Don’t keep alive this burning soul.


(Don't leave)
I can’t hold the truths you hold at me.
(Don't plead)
I can’t stop the pain that’s stopping me,
So don’t leave me here alone.
Don’t keep alive this burning soul.


You took,
Whatever you could take,
And it’s not enough to make me fall.
I’m not standing up for your ego,
You always knew how to have it all.

Don’t leave me here alone.

This fragile heart’s,
A broken heart,
It can’t keep me here alone.

(Don’t leave)
I can’t hold the truths you hold at me.
(Don't plead)
I can’t stop the pain that’s stopping me,
So don’t leave me here alone.
Don’t keep alive this burning soul.
Say you can lie to my burning soul.




EDITED - 07/03/09
REASON - Title changed from 'Burning' to 'Burning Alone Forever' also got rid of 1 chorus,might get rid of some more and the chorus is shorter and less annoying :)
Not many changes,like I said before x

History - Funeral for a Friend

Pretty awesome song.
I know they might sound emo at first listen but these guys are really awesome and cool. I only just discovered this song. It's really emotional and they did this so well.
This is one of their best songs and its from their best album: 'Hours'
Welsh rock bands - hell yeah!


History - Funeral for a Friend

Dear friends of this academy
Ooh romeo is bleeding to death,
To see a friend bleed to death, what for
Some kind of metaphor that I cant see?
So I'll drink until I see it.

This sky will make me sick,
So I'll give up on you;
I'll give up on this.
This sky will make me sick,
So I'll give up on this;
I'll give up on you.

Archers in your arches,
Raise your fingers for one last salute,
And bleed this skyline dry,
Your history is mine.

So you want to hold me up and bring me down,
Yes, you want to hold me up and break me down,
I don't care for your sweet scent
Or the way you want me more than I want you,
And I don't care for your sweet scent
Or the way you want me more than I want you.

Archers in your arches,
Raise your fingers for one last salute,
And bleed this skyline dry,
Your history is mine.

Archers in your arches,
Raise your fingers for one last salute,
And bleed this skyline dry,
Your history is mine...

It's all mine...
It's all mine...
It's all mine...

Archers in your arches,
Raise your fingers for one last salute,
And bleed this skyline dry,
Your history is mine...

Archers in your arches,
Raise your fingers for one last salute,
And bleed this skyline dry,
Your history is mine...
