Guns N Roses - Paradise City

Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home (Oh, won't you please take me home)
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home (Oh, won't you please take me home)

Just an urchin livin' under the street
I'm a hard case that's tough to beat
I'm your charity case, so buy me somethin' to eat
I'll pay you at another time
Take it to the end of the line

Rags to riches or so they say
You gotta keep pushin' for the fortune and fame
You know it's, it's all a gamble when it's just a game
You treat it like a capital crime
Everybody's doin' their time

Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home

Strapped in the chair of the city's gas chamber
Why I'm here, I can't quite remember
The surgoen general say's it's hazardous to breathe
I'd have another cigarette, but I can't see
Tell me who you gonna believe

Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home

So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away

Captain America's been torn apart
Now he's a court jester with a broken heart
He said turn me around and take me back to the start
I must be losing my mind - "Are you blind?"
I've seen it all a million times

Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home

Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home

I wanna go
I wanna know
Oh, won't you please take me home

I wanna see
Oh, look at me
Oh, won't you please take me home

Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home

Take me down
Oh, yeah
Beat me down
Oh, won't you please take me home

I wanna see
Oh, look at me
Oh, won't you please take me home

I wanna see
Boy, I'm gonna be mean
Oh, oh, take me home

Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home

I wanna go
I wanna know
Oh, won't you please take me home, Baby

Alice Cooper - Poison

Your cruel device
Your blood, like ice
One look could kill
My pain, your thrill

I want to love you, but I better not touch
I want to hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I want to kiss you, but I want it too much
I want to taste you, but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison running through my veins
You're poison
I don't want to break these chains

Your mouth, so hot
Your web, I'm caught
Your skin, so wet
Black lace on sweat

I hear you calling and it's needles and pins
I want to hurt you just to hear you screaming my name
Don't want to touch you, but you're under my skin
I want to kiss you, but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison running through my veins
You're poison
I don't want to break these chains
Poison

One look could kill
My pain, your thrill

I want to love you, but I better not touch
I want to hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I want to kiss you, but I want it too much
I want to taste you, but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison running through my veins
You're poison
I don't want to break these chains
Poison

I want to love you, but I better not touch
I want to hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I want to kiss you, but I want it too much
I want to taste you, but your lips are venomous poison
I don't want to break these chains
Poison
Running deep inside my veins
Burning deep inside my veins
Poison
I don't want to break these chains
Poison

noch mal guns´n roses, aber für mich der beste und traurigste text ever:

Estranged

When you're talking to yourself
And nobody's home
You can fool yourself
You came in this world alone...

So nobody ever told you baby, how it was gonna be
So What'll happen to you baby?
Guess we'll have to wait and see
...one, two....

Old at heart. But I'm only 28
And I'm much too young to let love break my heart
Young at heart. But it's getting much too late
To find ourselves so far apart
I don't know how you're supposed to find me lately
And what more could you ask from me?
How could you say that I never needed you
When you took everything
Said you took everything from me...

Young at heart. And it gets so hard to wait
When no one I know can seem to help me now
Old at heart. But I mustn't hesitate
If I'm to find my own way out
Still talking to myself. And nobody's home.....(alone)

So nobody ever told us baby, how it was gonna be
So What'll happen to us baby?
Guess we'll have to wait and see

When I find all of the reasons
Maybe I'll find another way
Find another day
With all the changing seasons of my life
Maybe i'll get it right next time
And now that you've been broken down
Got your head out of the clouds
You're back down on the ground
You don't talk so loud, and you don't walk so proud
Anymore. and what for?

Well I jumped into the river
Too many times to make it home
I'm out here on my own
Drifting all alone
If it doesn't show
Give it time to read between the lines
'Cause I see the storm is getting closer
And the waves, they get so high
Seems everything we've ever known is here
Why must it drift away and die?

I'll never find anyone to replace you
Guess I'll have to make it through
This time, oh this time, without you
I knew the storm was getting closer
And all my friends said I was high
But everything we've ever known's here
I never wanted it to die

Heute erst im Radio gehört und das erste Mal auf den Text geachtet:

Elvis Presley - In the ghetto

As the snow flies
On a cold and gray chicago mornin'
A poor little baby child is born
In the ghetto
And his mama cries
'cause if there's one thing that she don't need
Its another hungry mouth to feed
In the ghetto

People, don't you understand
The child needs a helping hand
Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day
Take a look at you and me,
Are we too blind to see,
Do we simply turn our heads
And look the other way

Well the world turns
And a hungry little boy with a runny nose
Plays in the street as the cold wind blows
In the ghetto

And his hunger burns
So he starts to roam the streets at night
And he learns how to steal
And he learns how to fight
In the ghetto

Then one night in desperation
A young man breaks away
He buys a gun, steals a car,
Tries to run, but he don't get far
And his mama cries

As a crowd gathers round an angry young man
Face down on the street with a gun in his hand
In the ghetto

As her young man dies,
On a cold and gray chicago mornin',
Another little baby child is born
In the ghetto

G N' R - November Rain

When I look into your eyes I can see a love restrained
but darling when I hold you don't you know I feel the same
nothing lasts forever and we both know hearts can change
and it's hard to hold a candle in the cold November rain

We've been through this such a long long time just trying to kill the pain
lovers always come and lovers always go and no one's really sure
of letting go today walking away
we could take the time to lay it on the line I could rest my head
just knowing that you were mine all mine

So if you wanna love me then darling don't refrain
or I'll just end up walking in the cold November rain

Do you need some time on your own
do you need some time all alone
everybody needs some time on their own
don't you know you need some time all alone

I know it's hard to keep an open heart
when even friends seem out to harm you
but if you could heal a broken heart
would't time be out to charm you oh

Sometimes I need some time on my own
sometimes I need some time all alone
everybody needs some time on their own
don't you know you need some time all alone

And when your fears subside and shadows still remain oh yea
I know that you can love me when there's no one left to blame
so never mind the darkness we still can find a way
nothing lasts forever even cold November rain

You're not the only one you're not the only one

Don't you think that you need somebody
don't you think that you need someone
everybody needs somebody
you're not the only one you're not the only one

Don't you think that you need somebody
don't you think that you need someone
everybody needs somebody
you're not the only one you're not the only one

Don't you think that you need somebody
don't you think that you need someone
everybody needs somebody
you're not the only one you're not the only one

Don't you think that you need somebody
don't you think that you need someone
everybody needs somebody

... Kindheitserinnerungen

Massive Attack - Risingson .

[3d]

I seen you go down to a cold mirror
It was never clearer in my era so
You lick a shine upon your forehead or
Check it by the signs in the corridor
You light my ways through the club maze
We would struggle through the dub daze

I see myself in there upon my lover
It's how you go down to the men's room sink
Sad we talk of how madmen think
I see myself in there upon my lover
I don't know her from another miss
I don't know you from another
See me run now you're gone...dream on

[Daddy G]

Why you want to take me to this party and breathe
I'm dying to leave
Every time we grind we know we severed lines
Where have all those flowers gone
Long time passing
Why you keep me testing, keep me tasking
You keep on asking

[3d]

Toy-like people make me boy-like
Toy-like people make me boy-like
They're invisible, when the trip it flips
They get physical, way below my lips
And everything you got hoi-poloi like
Now you're lost and you're lethal
And now's about the time you gotta leave all
These good people...dream on

Nicer than the bird up in the tree top
Cheaper than the chip inside my lap top
All the variations you could do with me
Nicer than the girl up in your mind you're free

[Daddy G]

Automatic crystal remote control,
They come to move your soul

[3d]

You're gonna fade into the background
Like a better smoke'll bring you back round
Like a man slide inside you my dear
Your cheap beer's filled with crocodile tears
See 'em run now you're gone...dream on

Toy-like people make me boy-like
Toy-like people make me boy-like

I found a reason
I found a reason

Dream on
Dream on
Dream on


Ich komm nich mehr davon los

Death Cap for Cutie- "I Will Follow You Into The Dark"

Love of mine some day you will die
But I'll be close behind
I'll follow you into the dark

No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white
Just our hands clasped so tight
Waiting for the hint of a spark
If Heaven and Hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark

In Catholic school as vicious as Roman rule
I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black
And I held my tongue as she told me
"Son fear is the heart of love"
So I never went back

If Heaven and Hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark

You and me have seen everything to see
From Bangkok to Calgary
And the soles of your shoes are all worn down
The time for sleep is now
It's nothing to cry about
'cause we'll hold each other soon
In the blackest of rooms

If Heaven and Hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the No's on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark
Then I'll follow you into the dark

Wolfgang Müller - Oben

Oben auf dem Berg
wo man den Wind hat
da kann man sein Innerstes spüren
wie einen Flügelschlag
es stimmt ich bin immer noch traurig
und werd’s immer sein
es ist wie es ist, nicht so schlimm
und ich kann
und will hier nichts heilen

Ich bin sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr
sehr gern allein
ich bin sehr gern allein

Schenk mir eine deiner Geschichten
und einen Kuss
mehr kann und will ich nicht tragen
es sei denn ich muss
auf Erbsen schläft es sich prächtig
wenn es nichts anderes gibt
und die hässlichsten Dinge sind wunderschön
wenn sie aufblühen weil man sie liebt

Ich bin sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr
sehr gern allein
ich bin sehr gern allein

Das Platzen von Träumen erzeugt
einen seltsamen Schmerz
ein Pfeil den man nur in die Luft schießt
trifft den Himmel mitten ins Herz

Ich bin sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr
sehr gern allein
ich bin sehr gern allein

30 Seconds to Mars - Saviour

Until you crash
Until you burn
Until you lie
Until you learn
Until you see
Until you believe

Until you fight
Until you fall
Until the end of everything at all
Until you die
Until you're alive

Don't save me, don't save me, cuz I don't care
Don't save me, don't save me, cuz
I don't care

Until you give
Until you've used
Until you've lost
Until you lose
Until you see, how could you believe?

Until you've lived a thousand times
Until you've seen the other side
This is my chance, this is my chance

Don't save me, don't save me, cuz I don't care
Don't save me, don't save me, cuz
I don't care

Until the truth becomes a lie
Until you change, until you deny
Until you believe

This is my chance, this is my chance
I'll take it now because I can
This is my chance, I want it now

Don't save me, don't save me, cuz I don't care
Don't save me, don't save me, cuz
I don't care

Save me, save me, save me
Save me, save me, save me
I don't care

Diorama - Kein Mord

Ueber deinen wolken hinter tueren
Ueber deinen worten unter tieren
Ueber deinem mut auf allen vieren
Ueber deinem mut auf allen vieren

Zwischen deinen tueren hinter gedanken
Zwischen deinen fragen unter schichten
Zwischen deinen fingern in sekunden
Zwischen deinen fingern in sekunden

Brennt der verstand brennt
Der verstand flackert die see
Kein anfang kein bestand kein bestand

Hinter deinen menschen ueber dingen
Hinter deinem ruecken zwischen traeumen
Hinter deinem ende auf ein wort
Hinter deinem ende auf ein wort

Unter deinem schweigen ueber leben
Unter deiner nummer zwischen vielen
Unter deiner maske aus mechanik
Unter deiner maske aus mechanik

Brennt der verstand brennt
Der verstand flackert die see
Kein anfang kein bestand kein bestand

Niemand schweigt
Niemand schreit
Niemand leidet
So schoen wie du

Bromheads Jackets - Poppy Bird

He spied her on the tube
And she was wearing a bright red poppy
Her beauty it shone through the silence
As the commuters they tried not to make eye contact
He'd never seen such a beautiful thing
Except for in movies or up on billboards
He never seen such a beautiful thing in
All his years of travelling these trains

Her shiny brown hair was tucked behind her ears
And her big blue eyes pierced right through her glasses
The book she was reading was of an interesting nature
He knew that he would surely like to date her one day

A few more stops to Walthamstow
Its just a few more stops to Walthamstow
Its just a few more stops to Walthamstow
And poppy bird i wonder what your name is

He was a child of a difficult nature
It was compulsive disorder related
Sometimes he would do silly little things
Like turn the key in the door 5 times before he went to bed
In the past he got in some silly situations
With girls from school making some silly accusations
He was through all that and he knew what to do to not
Get himself into trouble

He wanted to walk past and just ask her her name
And say shes so pretty hes been watching her on the train
He was a child of a difficult nature
He was a child of a difficult nature

A few more stops to Walthamstow
Its just a few more stops to Walthamstow
Its just a few more stops to Walthamstow
And poppy bird i wonder what your name is

A few more stops to Walthamstow
Its just a few more stops to Walthamstow
Its just a few more stops to Walthamstow
And poppy bird i wonder if i'll ever meet you

He can't believe his luck coz hes in Walthamstow
And shes leaving the train also
He follows her onto the platform
Up the stairs and through the barriers
He gets a bit too close and she looks behind
He takes control of himself and walks further behind
Now they're out and they're onto the street
And they walk past the top of his road

It sure is dark and yes it sure is cold
And so he plucks up the courage
And starts to make his approach
She can hear his footsteps
Her hearts in her throat
She turns starts to run

No don't be dumb
No don't be dumb
No don't be dumb
No please don't be dumb

He's so close now she waits to be grabbed
And she prays to god that she won't get stabbed
So close now she can feel his breath
And he grabs her on the arm and says
"Miss is this your book that you left?"
