Easily the most beautiful song I've ever heard period!

Something Corporate-Konstantine


I can't imagine all the people that you know
and the places that you go
When the lights are turned down low
and I don't understand all the things you've seen
but I'm slipping in between
You and your big dreams
It's always you
In my big dreams
And you tell me that its over
wake up lying in a patch of four leaf clovers
and your restless
and I'm naked
you gotta get out
you cant stand to see me shaking
no
could you let me go?
i didn't think so
and you don't wanna be here in the future
so you say the presents just a pleasant interruption to the past
and you don't wanna look much closer
cause you're afraid to find out all this hope
you had sent into the sky by now had
crashed
and it did
because of me

and then you bring me home
afraid to find out that your alone oh
and I'm sleeping in your living room
but we don't have much room to live

and i had these dreams in them i learned to play guitar
maybe cross the country
become a rock star
and there was hope in me that I could take you there
but damn it you're so young
well i don't think i care
and if i hurt you
then I'm sorry
please don't think that this was easy

and then you bring me home
cause we both know what its like to be alone oh
and I'm dreaming in your living room
but we don't have much room to live

and konstantine is walking down the stairs
doesn't she look good
standing in her underwear
and i was thinking
what i was thinking
we've been drinking and it doesn't get me anywhere
my konstantine came walking down the stairs
and all that i could do was touch her long blond hair
and I've been thinking
but it hurts me thinking
that these nights when we were drinking
no they never got us anywhere
no

this is because i can spell confusion with a 'K'
and i can like it
its to dying in another's arms
and why i had to try it
its to Jimmy Eat World
and those nights in my car
when the first star you see
may not be a star
I'm not your star
isn't that what you said
what you thought this song meant

and if this is what it takes
just to lye with my mistakes
and live with what i did to you
all the hell i put you through
i always catch the clock
its 11:11
now you wanna talk
its not hard to dream
you'll always be my konstantine
my konstantine
they'll never hurt you like i do
no they'll never hurt you like i do
no,no,no, no, no, no, no, no

this is to a girl
who got into my head
with all the pretty things she did
hey
ya know
you keep me up in bed
this is to a girl
who got into my head
with all these f***ed up things i did
hey
maybe
baby you could keep me up in bed
my konstantine

you spin around me like a dream
we played out on this movie screen
and I said
did you know I missed you(x7)
I miss you

and then you bring me home
and we go to sleep
but this time not alone
and I know
and you'll kiss me in your living room
I know
I know you miss me in your living room
cause these nights I think
maybe that I miss you in my living room
but we don't have much room
I said does anybody need that room
because we all need a little more room
to live

my konstantine...

O.K., I apologize ahead of time for hijacking this thread but if anyone knows me then they know this is right up my alley! I'm the guy who looks for the ballad first on every c.d.! :heheh:

Here goes starting with my Pumpkin beauties:

The Smashing Pumpkins-For Martha
(perhaps the most beautiful SP track period)


whenever I run
wherever I run to you lost
it's never done
just hanging on

the past has let me be
returning as if dream
shattered as belief

if you have to go, don't say goodbye
if you have to go, don't you cry
if you have to go, I will get by
someday I'll follow you and see you on the other side

but for the grace of love
I'd will the meaning of
heaven from above

but for the grace of love
I'd will the meaning of
heaven from above

your picture out of time
left aching in my mind
shadows kept alive

if you have to go, don't say goodbye
if you have to go, don't you cry
if you have to go, I will get by
I will follow you and see you on the other side

but for the grace of love
who'd will the meaning of
heaven from above

long horses we are born
creatures more than torn
mourning our way home


The Smashing Pumpkin-Disarm
(The most beautiful SP single)


Disarm you with a smile
And cut you like you want me to
Cut that little child
Inside of me and such a part of you
Ooh, the years burn
Ooh, the years burn

I used to be a little boy
So old in my shoes
And what I choose is my choice
What's a boy supposed to do?
The killer in me is the killer in you
My love
I send this smile over to you

Disarm you with a smile
And leave you like they left me here
To wither in denial
The bitterness of one who's left alone
Ooh, the years burn
Ooh, the years burn, burn, burn

I used to be a little boy
So old in my shoes
And what I choose is my voice
What's a boy supposed to do?
The killer in me is the killer in you
My love
I send this smile over to you

The killer in me is the killer in you
Send this smile over to you
The killer in me is the killer in you
Send this smile over to you
The killer in me is the killer in you
Send this smile over to you

The Smashing Pumpkins-Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness
(beautiful instrumental)

An absolute gorgeous Counting Crows song!

Counting Crows-Colorblind


I am color...blind
Coffee black and egg white
Pull me out from inside
I am ready
I am ready
I am ready
I am
taffy stuck, tongue tied
Stuttered shook and uptight
Pull me out from inside
I am ready
I am ready
I am ready
I am...fine
I am covered in skin
No one gets to come in
Pull me out from inside
I am folded, and unfolded, and unfolding
I am
colorblind
Coffee black and egg white
Pull me out from inside
I am ready
I am ready
I am ready
I am...fine
I am.... fine
I am fine

Absolutely chillingly beautiful live songs!

City and Colour-Happiness By The Kilowatt



So this is continuous happiness
You know, I always
Imagined it something more

With the right paint,
The right shades,
The right frames,
This could really work
What a great day to spend indoors

So wake, wake up,
Just wake, wake up

So where has all the day gone?
And why are my lungs aching when I breathe?
Is there something wrong with the heat?
Why am I so cold?
My heart feels sick
And it hurts when I speak

So wake, wake up,
Just wake, wake up

Was this what we hoped for?

Was this what we hoped for?

Damien Rice-I Remember


I remember it well
The first time that I saw
Your head around the door
'Cause mine stopped working

I remember it well
There was wet in your hair
I was stood in stare
And time stopped moving

I want you here tonight
I want you here
'Cause I can't believe what I found
I want you here tonight want you here
'Cause nothing is taking me down, down, down...

I remember it well
Taxied out of a storm
To watch you perform
And my ships were sailing

I remember it well
I was stood in your line
And your mouth, your mouth, your mind...

I want you here tonight
I want you here
'Cause I can't believe what I found
I want you here tonight want you here
Nothing is taking me down, down, down...

Except you my love. Except you my love...

Come all ye lost
Dive into moss
I hope that my sanity covers the cost
To remove the stain of my love
In paper mache

Come all ye reborn
Blow off my horn
I'm driving real hard
This isn't love, this is porn
God will forgive me
But I, I whip myself with scorn, scorn

I wanna hear what you have to say about me
Hear if you're gonna live without me
I wanna hear what you want
I remember December
And I wanna hear what you have to say about me
Hear if you're gonna live without me
I wanna hear what you want
What the hell do you want?

Two beautiful songs by The Used:

The Used-On My Own


See all those people on the ground,
Wasting time...
I try to hold it all inside,
Just for tonight,
On top of the world,
I'm sitting here wishing,
The things I've become,
But something is missing,
Maybe I...
What do I know.

And now it seems that I have found,
Nothing at all,
I wanna hear your voice out loud,
Slow it down, slow it down,
Without it all,
I'm choking on nothing,
It's clear in my head,
that I'm screaming for something,
Knowing nothing is better than knowing at all.

On my own (4x)
(On my own, YAH!!)(2x)

Without it all,
I'm choking on nothing,
It's clear in my head,
that I'm screaming for ANYTHING,
Knowing nothing is better than knowing at all.

On my own (4x)

The Used-Blue and Yellow


And it's all in how you mix the two,
And it starts just where the light exists.
It's a feeling that you cannot miss,
And it burns a hole,
Through everyone that feels it.

Well you're never gonna find it,
If you're looking for it,
Won't come your way,yeah
Well you'll never find it,
If your looking for it. (looking for it)

Should of done something, but I've done it enough.
By the way, your hands were shaking,
Rather waste some time with you.

And you never would have thought in the end,
How amazing it feels just to live again,
It's a feeling that you cannot miss,
It burns a hole, through everyone that feels it.

Well you're never gonna find it,
If you're looking for it, won't come your way, yeah
Well you'll never find it, if you're looking for it. (looking for it)

Should of done something, but I've done it enough.
By the way, your hands were shaking.
Rather waste some time with you.

Should of said something, but I've said it enough.
By the way, my words were faded.
Rather waste some time with you.

(Time with you... time with you time with you
Waste some time with you... waste some time with you)

Should of done something, but I've done it enough.
By the way, your hands were shaking.
Rather waste my time with you.

Should of said something, but I've said it enough.
By the way, my words were faded.
Rather waste my time with you.

Should of done something, but I've done it enough.
By the way, my hands were shaking.
Rather waste some time with you.

Waste some time with you...
Waste some time with you...
Waste some time with you...
Waste some time with you...
Waste some time with you...
Waste some time with you...
Waste some time with you...

(fading)
Should of done something, but I've done it enough.
By the way, my hands were shaking.
Rather waste some time with you.

This is a beautiful song!!

69e7c060ada01d557176f110.L._AA240_.jpg



Can anybody tell me why
We're lying here on the floor
And neither of us can barely breathe at all
The doctors saying hold on tight
As we say our last goodbyes
And this is, a moment that
changes our whole lives

And I still believe in the good
And I still believe in the light
And I wanna feel the sun
I wanna free you tonight
And I still believe in the good
And I still believe in the light
And I wanna feel the sun
I wanna free you tonight

I'm staring deep into your eyes
They're telling me the time has come
And I know you're ready to rise and sail home
The room is filling up with light
As we say our last goodnight
I thank you for every second of your life

And I still believe in the good
And I still believe in the light
And I wanna feel the sun
I wanna free you tonight
And I still believe in the good
And I still believe in the light
And I wanna feel the sun
I wanna free you

And I'm falling,
Watching as you're hurting
I'm down here I'm on my knees
How can I survive?
And you turn to me and promise me you're ready
And tell me you'll be waiting on the other side

And I still believe in the good
And I still believe in the light
And I wanna feel the sun
I wanna free you tonight
And you showed me all the good
And you lead me through the light
And you gave me the sun
It's time to free you tonight

Hell yeah it is! :grinthumb

Beautiful songs from female artist:

Fiona Apple-Never Is A Promise
(One of my fav songs ever made period)


You'll never see the courage I know
Its colors' richness won't appear within your view
I'll never glow the way that you glow
Your presence dominates the judgements made on you

But as the scenery grows I see in different lights
The shades and shadows undulate in my perception
My feelings swell and stretch I see from greater heights
I understand what I am still to proud to mention, to you

You'll say you understand
But you don't understand
You'll say you'll never give up seeing eye to eye
But never is a promise and you can't afford to lie

You'll never touch these things that I hold
The skin of my emotions lies beneath my own
You'll never feel the heat of this soul
My fever burns me deeper than I've ever shown to you

You'll say "don't fear your dreams"
It's easier than it seems
You'll say you'd never let me fall from hopes so high
But never is a promise and you can't afford to lie

You'll never live this life that I live
I'll never live the life that wakes me in the night
You'll never hear the message I give
You'll say it looks as though I might give up this fight

But as the scenery grows I see in different lights
The shades and shadows undulate in my perception
My feelings swell and stretch I see from greater heights
I realize what I am now too smart to mention, to you

You'll say you understand
You'll never understand
I'll say I'll never wake up knowing how or why
I don't know what to believe in
You don't know who I am
You'll say I need appeasing when I start to cry
But never is a promise and I'll never need a lie

Tori Amos-Northern Lad


Had a northern lad
Well not exactly had
He moved like the sunset
God who painted that
First he love my accent
How his knees could bend
I thought we'd be ok
Me and my molasses
But I feel someting is wrong
But I fell this cake just isn't done
Don't say that you Don't
And if you could see me now
Said if you could see me now
Girls you've got to know
When it's time to turn the page
When you're only wet
Because of the rain
He don't show much these days
It's gets so f***ing cold
I loved his secret places
But I can't go anymore
"you change like sugar cane"
Says me northern lad
I guess you go too far
When pianos try to be guitars
I feel the west in you
And I feel it falling apart too
Don't say that you Don't
And if you could see me now
Said if you could see me now
Girls you've got to know
When it's time to turn the page
When you're only wet
Because of the rain
When you're only wet
Because of the rain


Tori Amos-Cooling


Maybe I didn't like to hear
But I still can't believe
Speed Racer is dead
So then I thought I'd make some plans
But fire thought
She'd really rather be water instead

And Peggy got a message for me
From Jesus
And I've heard every word
That you have said

And I know I have been
Driven like the snow

But
This is cooling
Faster than I can
This is cooling
Faster than I...

But do I hate what she is
Or do I want to be her?
And don't we love something fresh
Anything new; virgin

Woman, you got too many brambles
Hiding under these bushes
Woman, you got too many brambles
But I always liked a good storm and
Always good for a storm

So then love walked up to like
And said I know that you don't like me much
Let's go for a ride
This ocean is wrapped around that pineapple tree

And is your place in heaven worth giving up
These kisses
These, yes
These kisses

And Peggy got a message for me
From Jesus
And I've heard every word
That you have said

And I know I have been
Driven like the snow

But
This is cooling
Faster than I can
Hey, yes
Faster than I can
Cooling
Hey...
This is cooling
This is cooling

Susie Suh-All I Want


Too many times, I have wondered
What all trying is for
You come around, I feel so down, I'm gonna drown
Because I know that you've fallen short

But do you know, It doesn't change
The way I feel about you at the end of the day
Because I know
That all I want is what you got
All I want is what you got

And too many times, I have wanted
To turn around and walk away
Knowing deep inside
You can't provide what I need from you anyway

But do you know, It doesn't change
The way I feel about you at the end of the day
Because I know
That all I want is what you got
All I want is what you got

I tell you that I wanna go, but I wanna stay
I tell you that I wanna go, but I wanna stay
I tell you that I wanna go, but I wanna stay
I wanna stay, I wanna stay, I wanna stay
But I know I'm gonna lose myself this way
I wanna stay, I wanna stay, I wanna stay
But I know I'm gonna lose myself this way

But do you know, It doesn't change
The way I feel about you at the end of the day
'Cause I know
That all I want is what you got
All I want is what you got
But this moment is all I've got
It's all I've got
