Weezer - Say It Ain't So

[mhengh]

All cried out- Allure

[bluegreen717]

No Ordinary Morning- Chicane (very haunting...and depressing...goes well with red horse and a dark corner at a bar.)

 

If there was nothing that i could say

turned your back and you just walked away

leaves me numb inside i think of you

together is all i ever knew

 

We moved too fast but i had no sign

i would try to turn the hands of time

i looked to you for a reason why

the love we had passed me by

 

And as the sun would set you would rise

fall from the sky into paradise

is there no light in your heart for me

you´ve closed your eyes you don´t longer see

 

There were no lies between me and you

you said nothing of what you knew

but there was still something in your eyes

left me helpless and paralysed

 

You could give a million reasons

change the world and change the tides

could not give me the secrets

of your heart and of your mind

in the darkness that surrounds me

now there is no peace of mind

your careless words undo me

leave the thought of us behind

[bluegreen717]

White Flag by Dido (for people who just WON'T get over a breakup)

 

 

I know you think that I shouldn't still love you

I'll tell you that

But if I didn't say it

Well, I'd still have felt it

Where's the sense in that?

 

I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder

Or return to where we were

 

Well I will go down with this ship

And I won't put my hands up and surrender

There will be no white flag above my door

I'm in love and always will be

 

I know I left too much mess

And destruction to come back again

And I caused but nothing but trouble

I understand if you can't talk to me again

And if you live by the rules of 'It's over'

Then I'm sure that that makes sense

 

Well I will go down with this ship

And I won't put my hands up and surrender

There will be no white flag above my door

I'm in love and always will be

 

And when we meet

As I'm sure we will

All that was then

Will be there still

I'll let it pass

And hold my tongue

And you will think

That I've moved on

 

Well I will go down with this ship

And I won't put my hands up and surrender

There will be no white flag above my door

I'm in love and always will be

 

Well I will go down with this ship

And I won't put my hands up and surrender

There will be no white flag above my door

I'm in love and always will be

 

I will go down with this ship

And I won't put my hands up and surrender

There will be no white flag above my door

I'm in love and always will be

Love Hurts

by Nazareth

 

Love hurts, love scars,

Love wounds, and marks,

Any heart, not tough,

Or strong, enough

To take a lot of pain,

Take a lot of pain

Love is like a cloud

Holds a lot of rain

Love hurts, ooh ooh love hurts

 

I’m young, I know,

But even so

I know a thing, or two

I learned, from you

I really learned a lot,

Really learned a lot

Love is like a flame

It burns you when it’s hot

Love hurts, ooh ooh love hurts

 

Some fools think of happiness

Blissfulness, togetherness

Some fools fool themselves I guess

They’re not foolin’ me

 

I know it isn’t true,

I know it isn’t true

Love is just a lie,

Made to make you blue

Love hurts, ooh,ooh love hurts

Ooh,ooh love hurts

 

[guitar solo]

 

I know it isn’t true,

I know it isn’t true

Love is just a lie,

Made to make you blue

Love hurts, ooh ooh love hurts

Ooh ooh love hurts

Ooh ooh...

[Guest Dobermaxx]

Ok, my age is gonna show big time but here's a wallowing in self pity song from my college days

 

Def Leppard - Love Bites

 

When you make love, do you look in the mirror?

Who do you think of?

Does he look like me?

Do you tell lies?

And say that it’s forever?

Do you think twice, or just touch ’n’ see?

Ooh babe

Ooh yeah

When you’re alone, do you let go?

Are you wild ’n’ willin’ or is it just for show?

Ooh c’mon

 

I don’t wanna touch you too much baby

’cos making love to you might drive me crazy

I know you think that love is the way you make it

So I don’t wanna be there when you decide to break it

No!

 

(love bites, love bleeds)

It’s bringin’ me to my knees

(love lives, love dies)

It’s no surprise

(love begs, love pleads)

It’s what I need

 

When I’m with you are you somewhere else?

Am I gettin’ thru or do you please yourself?

When you wake up will you walk out?

It can’t be love if you throw it about

Ooh babe

I don’t wanna touch you too much baby

’cos making love to you might drive me crazy

Oh

 

Ooh yeah

(love bites, love bleeds)

It’s bringin’ me to my knees

(love lives, love dies)

(love bites, love bleeds)

It’s bringin’ me to my knees

(love lives, love dies)

It’s no surprise

(love begs, love pleads)

It’s what I need

Lover Lay Down

 

 

Spring sweet rhythm dance in my head

Slip into my lover's hands

Kiss me oh won't you kiss me now

And sleep I would inside your mouth

 

Don't be us too shy

Knowing it's no big surprise

That I will wait for you

I will wait for no one but you

 

Look please lover lay down

Spend this time with me

Together share this smile

Lover lay down

 

Walk with me, walk with you

Hold my hand your hands

So much we have dreamed

And you were so much younger

Hard to explain that we are stronger

 

A million reasons life to deny

Let's toss them away

See you and me we

Lay down look see

She and he

By my lover's side

Together share this smile

Each other's tears to cry

Together share this smile

Lover lay down

 

Oh please

Look please lover lay down

Oh please lover lay down

And you weep

Lover lay down

Cause it's over

Lover lay down

Say lover, say lover, say lover, say lover, say lover

Could I love you

Could you love me (4x)

Darling it's

All the same (4x)

'Til we dance away (4x)

Chasing me all around

Leading me all around

Leading me all around in circles (2x)

Say...

Long & Winding Road - The Beatles....downer

[author]

One of the most depressing songs of all time...

 

Alone Again, Naturally

(Gilbert O'Sullivan)

 

In a little while from now,

If I'm not feeling any less sour.

I promised myself, to treat myself,

And visit a nearby tower ..........

And climbing to the top,

Would throw myself off,

In an effort to, make clear to whoever,

What it's like when you’re shattered .......

Left standing in a lurch,

In a church with people saying .....

My God, that's tough, she stood him up,

No point in us remaining .......

I may as well go home,

As I did on my own,

Alone again, naturally.

 

To think that only yesterday,

I was cheerful, bright and gay.

Looking forward to, and who wouldn’t do,

The role I was about to play.

But as if to knock me down,

Reality came around,

And without so much as a mere touch,

Cut me into little pieces.

Leaving me to doubt, all about God and His mercy,

Oh, if He really does exist,

Why did He desert me?

And in my hour of need,

I truly am, indeed,

Alone again, naturally.

 

It seems to me that there are more hearts,

Broken in the world that can’t be mended,

Left unattended, what do we do?

What do we do?

 

Now looking back over the years,

And whatever else that appears.

I remember I cried when my father died,

Never wishing to hide the tears.

At sixty-five years old,

My mother, God rest her soul,

Couldn’t understand why the only man,

She had ever loved had been taken.

Leaving her to start, with a heart so badly broken,

Despite encouragement from me,

No words were ever spoken.

And when she passed away,

I cried and cried all day,

Alone again, naturally .....

Alone again ................................. naturally.

LATER

 

How can you come with me

When you knew all along that you had to go

How could you watch me sleep close to you

Pretending not to know

 

How could you memorize my name

And forget who I am

How could you think you're still the same

Believing I can

 

REFRAIN:

It's too late to start pretending

It's too late for a new beginning

Later than the sunset

Later than the rain

Later than never

To love you again

 

How could you ask for more

Than an innocent smile

Trust in me to stay

How could you close the door

And leave me here

Supposing I'm okay

 

How could you break down my disguise

And uncover my fears

How could you look into my eyes

Ignoring my tears

 

Repeat REFRAIN

 

Yeah, yeah

Oh

It's too late

[Immortal666]

Probably one of the most depressing songs ever, don't listen to this one if you're dealing with failure as this song might do you in and may end up as the soundtrack while you slit your wrists or put a a gun to your mouth. I give you, an Alice In Chains classic:

 

DOWN IN A HOLE

 

Bury Me Softly in this Womb

I Give This part of me for you

Sand rains down and here I sit

Holding rare flowers in a tomb...in bloom

 

Down in a hole and I don't know if I can be saved

See my heart I decorate it Like a Grave

You don't understand who they

thought i was supposed to be

Look at me now a man who won't let himself be

 

Down in a hole, losin my soul

Down in a hole, losing control

I'd like to fly, but my wings have been so denied

 

Down in a hole and they've put all

the stones in their place

I've eaten the sun so my tongue

has been burned of the taste

I have been guilty of kicking myself in the teeth

I will speak no more of my feelings beneath

 

Oh I want to be inside of you

 

Down in a hole, losin my soul

Down in a hole, losing control

I'd like to fly, but my wings have been so denied

 

I'd like to fly,

but my wings have been so denied
