Most Heart-breaking lyric

[~Aoife~]

I apologise if this thread already exists, but thought it would be interesting.

(Just in this kinda mood today [img]smileys/smiley19.gif[/img] )

Any ideas? I've got a few in mind but two that stick out from Damien:

'Girl That Does Yoga'~

"The day it ends
And there's no need for me"


And, 'Lonelily'~

"...then you let me down" [img]smileys/smiley19.gif[/img] [img]smileys/smiley19.gif[/img]

even though i cannot stand avril lavigne..

her one song just hits me everytime i hear it



'im standing on a bridge... im waiting in the dark, i thought that youd
be here by now, theres nothin but the rain, no footsteps on the ground,
im listening, but theres no sound..isnt anyone trying to find me?

wont somebody come take me home?"



sometimes at like 3 in the morning ill walk to the bridge over the
creek by my house if im depressed, or just in a complicated mood,

and just stare at the water..

makes me feel like that song

[~Aoife~]

Radiohead- 'Creep'

"I want you to notice when I’m not around. I wish I were special, yea so very special..."

[Livo]

all of "Revelate" by The Frames. i don't know why, it kind of gets to me. i suppose the lyrics are like glen's life story, my number eight, my revelate</span>
(when glen was about 18 he took a trip on his own to new york to try
and get a record deal, and the only friend he made was a homeless guy
who gave him half a black number eight billiard ball as a present)



also:



and i'm gonna wait for you, i've got to send this tape to you - </span>"Your Face" (The Frames)

you're all i'll ever want, headlong, i'm falling in headlong</span> -"Headlong" (The Frames)

I'm just a dancer, an innocent fiction, more like a dream than none</span> "An Innocent Fiction" (Erin McKeown)

we were a picture of love, and love doesn't think of forever</span> "Picture Of Love" (The Frames)

i tell her i wanna be friends with you, will you be friendly to me? </span>"Kids Song" (Mic Christopher)

love will come through, it's just waiting for you</span> "Love Will Come Through" (Travis)

i can't call you a friend, cos when
you left me here, you left me here to die. don't worry, i won't call
you again, cos when i take a hint i take it pretty hard, and when you
broke my heart you broke it into shards of glass</span> "Your Sweet Voice" (The Reindeer Section)

[~Aoife~]

The Killers- 'Mr. Brightside'

"I just cant look, its killing me..."

[#Ian#]

"I die when you mention his name."

I agree with the Creep one. Pablo Honey has loads of them. "Please forget the words that I just bluted out, it wasn't me...", also the entire Fake Plastic Trees lyric from the bends.

[Mojo_Pin1980]

Anything by Bright Eyes![img]smileys/smiley19.gif[/img]

"Hear you me" by Jimmy eat world has amazing lyrics.........


........"and if you were with me right now, i'd sing to you, just one last time. A song for a heart so big...............God wouldnt let it live"


the whole song is heartbreaking, i love it.


the Stereophonics "she takes her clothes off"............


.........."She longs to be another teenage dream, the problem is she's turning forty-three, she still takes her clothes off...............they found her dead, dead as nails at home"

[mestonf]

jimmy eat world great band and great lyrics
my favourite would have to be most radiohead and damo stuff.

Radiohead -But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here.

I don't care if it hurts,
I want to have control.
I want a perfect body,
I want a perfect soul.
I want you to notice,
when I'm not around.
You're so f**king special,
I wish I was special.



Damien Rice - all of his lyrics!!!!!

[Patricia]

Kent - Stop me June (little ego)


" I´ve been waiting for my brilliance to
shine through
like waiting would do
I´ve been called a little coward more
than once
It hurts when it´s true
I´ve been following your footprints in
the snow
Trying to return the excuses that I stole


(...)


I gather all the courage and the hate
Little ego goes wild
And my voice broke I finally reached
that age
I was cruel as a child
If this feeling that remains is not mine
then it´s something new
Maybe my brilliance shining through

It´s noisy, can´t think I can´t speak
I´m tired of handshakes so please
Get rid of this crowd I can´t breathe here
anymore
You just have to let me go, you just have to
let me go "

[unexplainedmuse]

this isnt all too much heartbreaking, but it sends chills down my spine when i hear it


'1st day of sunday school...the teacher walked in
and a sad little girl stares at a picture of him
she said
'i know that man up there on the cross...i dont know his name...but i know he got off
cuz he was there in my old house, he held me close to his side,
as i hid there behind our couch.....the night that my parents died'


its a country song....based on a true story as well...which just sends even more chills





ah...and 'have i still got you to keep me warm?'Edited by: unexplainedmuse

[~Aoife~]

Another one of my favs is Coldplay's 'Shiver'


So I look in your direction,
But you pay me no attention,
And you know how much I need you,
But you never even see me.

I'll always be waiting for you...Edited by: ~Aoife~

[mestonf]

these are all fekin excellent lyrics!

[Patricia]

Another Kent song: Stay with me. "were you the only one that made it feel right being me?"


Unbelievable Truth, I can't wait: "and I can't wait to have you near again, and talk about the things that we both went through"


Tom Mcrae: "every brigde we build we burn, and we never learn to swim"


Jewel: "this is my heart, bleeding before you, this is me down on my knees (...) I've mistaken you for somebody else, somebosy who gave a damn, somebody more like myself"

[~Aoife~]

Bell x1- 'Eve, the Apple of my Eye'

You left, I died


Bell x1- 'Slowset'

Her friend comes along,
And you know shes been rescued.
[img]smileys/smiley19.gif[/img]

Slowset is definitely one of Bell x1's saddest songs

[greenlee2]

This is from Prince "Adore"


Until the end of time, ill be there for you. Your are my honey bun, i truely adore you. If God one day struck me blind, your beauty I'd still see. Loves tooweak to define, just what you mean to me.

[Patricia]

"Juliet, when we made love you used to cry. You said Ilove you like the stars above, I'll love you till I die. There's a place for us - you know the movie song... When are you gonna realise, it was just that the time was wrong?" Dire Strait

[WeeAngel]

If you leave me now
It's not that I can't take it
It's just that somehow
I think you'd break it
So much beyond repair
Like pulling out my hair
And poisoning the roots





Turn and walk away
I've overspoken
Now what more can I say?
I know that I can kneel
And I can cry
I know, I know
That I can show you how I died
Now what good would it do
Give the world another fool
Just sitting on this stool
I'm close to giving up on you



fool-damo


And I hate when you say
That I never fight for you
Sometimes you breathe
All over my skin
And you always end up
Closer than close
That's where I give in



You're taking
You're taking
You're taking me down
You're taking
You're taking
You're taking me down
And you always end up
Closer than close
That's where I give in
That's where I give in
That's where I give


insane


I would've lied for you
I would've cried for you
I crossed the line for you
I would've died for you...


then go...sung by lisa

[-oli]

biffy clyro


"every once in a while i see your face, im feeling half the man...then you shut your eyes youclose me away, im under...i want to feel your breath here with me, and kiss you"


"i just wish we all could betray"

[mestonf]

i know this sounds silly but the new song by britney i think is one of her best (don't worry i'm not really into comercialised stuff) but this is a good song:

Britney Spears - Everytime

"At night I pray
That soon your face
Will fade away

And everytime I try to fly
I fall without my wings
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
And everytime I see you in my dreams
I see your face, you're haunting me
I guess I need you baby"


and Motion picture soundtrack by radiohead. Great lyrics.

Motion Picture Soundtrack
Red wine and sleeping pills
Help me get back to your arms
Cheap sex and sad films
Help me get back where I belong

I think you're crazy, maybe
I think you're crazy, maybe

Stop sending letters
Letters always get burned
It's not like the movies
They fed us on little white lies

I think you're crazy, maybe
I think you're crazy, maybe

I will see you in the next life

Beautiful angel
Pulled apart at birth
Limbless and helpless
I can't even recognize you

I think you're crazy, maybe (x6)

I will see you in the next life

[Sionna]

Pearl Jam - Last kiss


..........When I woke up the rain was pourin down. there were people standin all around.
Something warm flowing through my eyes. but somehow I found my baby that night.
I lifted her head, she looked at me and said. hold me darling, just a little
While. I held her close, I kissed her our last kiss. I found the love that i
Knew I had missed.

Well now she’s gone. even though I hold her tight. I lost my love, my life,
That night.

Oh where, oh where, can my baby be? the lord took her away from me. she’s gone
To heaven, so I’ve got to be good. so I can see my baby when I leave this
World.


Radiohead - Exit music(for a film)


Wake... from your sleep
The drying of your tears
Today.. we escape
We escape.

Pack and get dressed
Before your father hears us
Before.. all hell.. breaks loose.

Breathe... keep breathing
Don’t lose.. your nerve.
Breathe... keep breathing
I can’t do this.. alone.

Sing us a song
A song to keep us warm
There’s such a chill
Such a chill.

You can laugh
A spineless laugh
We hope that your rules and wisdom choke you
Now we are one
In everlasting peace

[Krystian]

Angie Aparo "Wonderland"


Take a piece of the sky
Make it rain cherry wine
Give her love give her life
Give her mine


She's a child young and willing
In a world that's unforgiving
That in time takes all the living
From your soul


I stand in the night with a silver sword
Killing her demons beating em off her door
Sleep baby don't you cry
Daddy's got a worn-out lullaby
And I live forever dark and damned
To see you spend one minute
In Wonderland


She can run free forever
Still our blood runs us together
I'll be there if she runs home
For worse or better
I know you like Adam knew Eve
Every tear you cry is a tear that I will bleed
Sleep baby don't you cry
Daddy's got a worn-out lullaby
And I live forever dark and damned
To see you spend one minute
In Wonderland



"Hush"- A. Aparo


She got it all
The boys they would crawl
Away from her door then they come back again
But don't let'em in
Smoking their grin
Leaving their best foot out in the cold
I'm waste of a momma's boy
It's a shame they say
There's so much you know he'll never enjoy
All the love you come to destroy


There's a moment lost in time
When she says hush
I'm on your side
It's just the two of us
You know that I
You know I'll never say goodbye


She smiles for me
It don't mean a thing
It don't take away the way it was before
I'm foolish and grown
I should've known
Her's was a world made for just one throne
I'm a waste of a momma's boy
It's a shame they say
There's so much you know he'll never enjoy
All the love you come to destroy


How many days can you waste it boy
It's a shame they say
There's so much you know he'll never enjoy
All the love we come to destroy


There's a moment lost in time
When she says hush
I'm on your side
It's just the two of us
Though they might try

[Krystian]

ohh i forgot one other very important one..


"These tears I've cried, I've cried a thousand oceans.
And if it seems I'm flo...o...ating in the darkness, well,
I can't believe that I wouldn't keep, keep you from flying.
So I would cry a thousand more if that's what it takes to sail you home.
Sail you home. Sail you home. Sail... Sail you home... "


-Tori Amos "1000 oceans"

[img]smileys/smiley19.gif[/img]

Slowset is definitely one of Bell x1's saddest songs

My 2 favourite Bell X1 songs![img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]


The most excruciatingly sad song I know is this one (works better if you hear his voice though):



<TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width="90%">
<T>
<TR>
<TD>
<H3>Bright Eyes -It's Cool, We Can Still Be Friends </H3>Yeah, you still kiss me, but it's just on the cheek
Yeah, you still kiss me, but it's just on the cheek
Yeah, you still kiss me sometimes, but it's just on the cheek
You pull away so easily

And I still call you, but I get your machine
And I still call you, but I get your machine
And if I'm lucky I guess, I get your roommate answering
But you're at the bar, or at Gene's

And we go to dinner, but you won't hold my hand
We sit at the same table, but we don't play with our feet
Yeah, we still go to dinner sometimes, but we don't sneak a kiss
When the waitress turns around

And we still watch movies, but we don't share the couch
And we still rent movies, but we don't share the couch
Yeah, we still watch movies sometimes, but you don't lay in my lap
The plot is slow, take a nap

And you even stay over, but now we stay in our clothes
Yeah, you'll even sleep over, but now we stay in our clothes
Yeah, you even sleep over sometimes, but we stay in our clothes
I'm only there so that you're not alone

And you say that I hurt you, in a voice like a prayer
Yeah, you say that I've hurt you, and your voice is like a prayer
Yeah, well maybe I hurt you sometimes, but let's contrast and compare
Lift up your shirt, the wound isn't there

I guess that your truth, is just the ghost of your lies
I guess your kind of truth, is just the ghost of your lies
Yeah, your kind of truth, darling, is just the ghost of your lies
I see through them all the time
So I'm pouring some whiskey, I'm gonna get drunk
Yeah, I'm pouring myself some whiskey, I'm going to get really f**king drunk
I'm pouring some whiskey right now, I'm going to get so, so drunk
That I pass out, forget your face, by the time I wake up</TD></TR></T></TABLE>

snow patrol-run

to think I might not see those eyes
it makes it so hard not to cry
and aswe say our long good byes
I nearly do

[samuelle]

ben folds - "fred jones pt. 2," particularly this stanza:


"Yeah, and all of these b*stards
Have taken his place
He's forgotten but not yet gone.
And I'm sorry, Mr. Jones
It's time."


and this line: "no one is left here who knows his first name"

i never never want to go home

because i haven't got one

We have a winner folks.

Love that song, also known as the first part of Ian's medley of songs in C that he doesn't know the whole way through.
