Creed - My Sacrifice
My Sacrifice
Hello my friend we meet again
It’s been a while where should
we begin…feels like forever
Within my heart are memories
Of perfect love that you gave to me
I remember
When you are with me
I’m free…I’m careless…I believe
Above all the others we’ll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
My sacrifice
We’ve seen our share of ups and downs
Oh how quickly life can turn around in
an instant
It feels so good to reunite
Within yourself and within your mind
Let’s find peace there
When you are with me
I’m free…I’m careless…I believe
Above all the others we’ll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
My sacrifice
I just want to say hello again
EDIT: även låten isig är underbar...

GREEN DAY LYRICS
"Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)"
Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.
So take the photographs, and still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial
For what it's worth it was worth all the while
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

Det är "Theobald Thor" också
Kändes väl politisk för att vara en allsång. Bör inte en allsång vara nått alla kan sjunga med i oavsett politisk åsikt?
Jo, det har du aldeles rätt i. Glömde nämna den problematiken. "Allsången" som jag nämnde utövades av några som sympatiserade med sångens budskap. De som inte kunde förlika sig med texten gjorde annat. Några deltog också för att det var en klämmig bit utan att reflektera över det politiska. Men det var lite väl att kalla det för allsång det tillfälle i mitt liv som jag syftade på, och det är ju inte med tanke på det du säger en lämplig allsångslåt.
Nu har jag hittat en guldrad i den fina sången Señorita med Lilleman: "Medans jag berättar och checkar in din balle" :bgrin:

Själv tycker jag denna äger: Chris Rea - Your Warm And Tender Love
I was lost in the deep and darkest night
No direction, not a single hope in sight
When I saw a fire burning brightly through
The storm that raged above
In the shadows of your warm and tender love
I was a stranger to the land and life around
In constant danger, being hurt by what I found
And of hurting what I treasured most
Foolish eagle never dove
Till I fell upon your warm and tender love
In the shadows of your warm and tender love
Now I gaze in peace at the lonely sky
That is raging high above
Safe in the shadows of your warm and tender, tender love
In the shadows of your warm and tender love

Rammstein har du lyssnat på lite väl för mycket va? 😉
Nä, varför då? 😀 Finns inget som heter 'för mycket' när det gäller Rammstein. Man kan aldrig få nog av den kroppen.. eh, musiken 🙄
Har hittat någon med rätt musiksmak! Rammstein kan man aldrig ledsna på.
Förövrigt tycker jag Bob Dylans Hurricane har en helt ok text.
Pistol shots ring out in the barroom night
Enter Patty Valentine from the upper hall.
She sees the bartender in a pool of blood,
Cries out, "My God, they killed them all!"
Here comes the story of the Hurricane,
The man the authorities came to blame
For somethin' that he never done.
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
The champion of the world.
Three bodies lyin' there does Patty see
And another man named Bello, movin' around mysteriously.
"I didn't do it," he says, and he throws up his hands
"I was only robbin' the register, I hope you understand.
I saw them leavin'," he says, and he stops
"One of us had better call up the cops."
And so Patty calls the cops
And they arrive on the scene with their red lights flashin'
In the hot New Jersey night.
Meanwhile, far away in another part of town
Rubin Carter and a couple of friends are drivin' around.
Number one contender for the middleweight crown
Had no idea what kinda shit was about to go down
When a cop pulled him over to the side of the road
Just like the time before and the time before that.
In Paterson that's just the way things go.
If you're black you might as well not show up on the street
'Less you wanna draw the heat.
Alfred Bello had a partner and he had a rap for the cops.
Him and Arthur Dexter Bradley were just out prowlin' around
He said, "I saw two men runnin' out, they looked like middleweights
They jumped into a white car with out-of-state plates."
And Miss Patty Valentine just nodded her head.
Cop said, "Wait a minute, boys, this one's not dead"
So they took him to the infirmary
And though this man could hardly see
They told him that he could identify the guilty men.
Four in the mornin' and they haul Rubin in,
Take him to the hospital and they bring him upstairs.
The wounded man looks up through his one dyin' eye
Says, "Wha'd you bring him in here for? He ain't the guy!"
Yes, here's the story of the Hurricane,
The man the authorities came to blame
For somethin' that he never done.
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
The champion of the world.
Four months later, the ghettos are in flame,
Rubin's in South America, fightin' for his name
While Arthur Dexter Bradley's still in the robbery game
And the cops are puttin' the screws to him, lookin' for somebody to blame.
"Remember that murder that happened in a bar?"
"Remember you said you saw the getaway car?"
"You think you'd like to play ball with the law?"
"Think it might-a been that fighter that you saw runnin' that night?"
"Don't forget that you are white."
Arthur Dexter Bradley said, "I'm really not sure."
Cops said, "A poor boy like you could use a break
We got you for the motel job and we're talkin' to your friend Bello
Now you don't wanta have to go back to jail, be a nice fellow.
You'll be doin' society a favor.
That sonofabitch is brave and gettin' braver.
We want to put his ass in stir
We want to pin this triple murder on him
He ain't no Gentleman Jim."
Rubin could take a man out with just one punch
But he never did like to talk about it all that much.
It's my work, he'd say, and I do it for pay
And when it's over I'd just as soon go on my way
Up to some paradise
Where the trout streams flow and the air is nice
And ride a horse along a trail.
But then they took him to the jailhouse
Where they try to turn a man into a mouse.
All of Rubin's cards were marked in advance
The trial was a pig-circus, he never had a chance.
The judge made Rubin's witnesses drunkards from the slums
To the white folks who watched he was a revolutionary bum
And to the black folks he was just a crazy nigger.
No one doubted that he pulled the trigger.
And though they could not produce the gun,
The D.A. said he was the one who did the deed
And the all-white jury agreed.
Rubin Carter was falsely tried.
The crime was murder "one," guess who testified?
Bello and Bradley and they both baldly lied
And the newspapers, they all went along for the ride.
How can the life of such a man
Be in the palm of some fool's hand?
To see him obviously framed
Couldn't help but make me feel ashamed to live in a land
Where justice is a game.
Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties
Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise
While Rubin sits like Buddha in a ten-foot cell
An innocent man in a living hell.
That's the story of the Hurricane,
But it won't be over till they clear his name
And give him back the time he's done.
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
The champion of the world.

Av alla band måste Lynyrd Skynyrd vara bäst. Jag är varken religiös, ateist t.o.m, och ingen direkt USA-älskare men sjuuhelskotta! Jag vill både bli kristen och amerikan ibland när man lyssnar på dom 😉
Men jag tar en i mängden bra texter, Devil In The Bottle
Well, there's a devil in the bottle, staring straight at me
Daring me to reach out, but I know he's testing me
If I take just one sip, I become that devil's son
Act a fool, sell my soul before God and everyone
Oh Lord, I know, I only hurt the ones I loveI'm walkin' down this dead end road, all alone and by myself
Wish I could blame the whiskey, but I can only blame myself
Running out of chances, and Lord that's such a crime
I got to find the answer before I lose my mind
Oh Lord its a cryin shame, oh Lord I've caused so much pain
I only hurt the ones I loveThere's a devil in a bottle that just won't let me be
So many times I've been hurtin' my soul and family
But I got free on the day I fought the
Devil in the bottleThe next time that ol' devil tries to get the best of me
I'll smash that bottle against the wall and know I'm finally free
There's a devil in a bottle that just won't let me be
There's so many times I let him hurt me
I got free the day I fought the
Devil in the bottle
Devil in the bottle
Devil in the bottle

The lucksmiths - Synchronised Sinking
You don't need to ask me twice
I'm not averse to giving advice
On a barstool basis
Four o'clock sounds fine to me
I'll meet you at the library
There's privacy in public places
Oh, but, reader, heal thyself
Put the book back on the shelf
Something's obviously wrong
Your face is all day long
It was lovely when you laughed
Come on – please get it off your chest
It's a commonplace but I'd suggest
A problem shared is a problem halved
Kick a stone across the road
Explain or you'll explode
Here we are
Silhouetted in the smoke
From the shipwrecks at the bar
Of the Anchor and Hope
And I haven't seen you smile in quite a while
Why don't you let go of your boy and see
You've lost none of your buoyancy?
So sobersided
Overboard and undecided
Have you come to the conclusion
That you've come to the conclusion?
Have you come to the conclusion
That you've come to the conclusion?
You're unsure
But at least you're thinking
This looks more and more
Like synchronised sinking
And I haven't seen you smile in quite a while
And I haven't seen you anywhere in ages
Knowing how you must be hating this
Going down with the relationship

I used to love her
But I had to kill her
I used to love her, Mm, yeah
But I had to kill her
She bitched so much, She drove me nuts
And now I'm happier this way, yeah
Whoa, oh yeah

Finns så många.
Men en som alltid kommer tillbaka är Steve Earles "Billy Austin"
För er som inte har hört den. (Antagligen de flesta) Ge den en chans, och gillar ni den så lär ni gilla resten av hans verk.
Rock´n Roll Häst jazz 4 ever
My name is Billy Austin
I'm twenty-nine years old
I was born in Oklahoma
Quarter Cherokee I'm told
Don't remember Oklahoma
Been so long since I left home
Seems like I've always been in prison
Like I've always been alone
Didn't mean to hurt nobody
Never thought I'd cross that line
I held up a filling station
Like I'd done a hundred times
The kid done like I told him
He lay face down on the floor
Guess I'll never know what made me
Turn and walk back through that door
The shot rang out like thunder
My ears rang like a bell
No one came runnin'
So I called the cops myself
Took their time to get there
And I guess I could a run
I knew I should be feeling something
But I never shed tear one
I didn't even make the papers
Cause I only killed one man
But my trial was over quickly
And then the long hard wait began
Court appointed lawyer
Couldn't look me in the eye
He just stood up and closed his briefcase
When they sentenced me to die
Now my waiting's over
As the final hour drags by
I ain't about to tell you
That I don't deserve to die
But there's twenty seven men here
Mostly black, brown and poor
Most of 'em are guilty
Who are you to say for sure?
So when the preacher comes to get me
And they shave off all my hair
Could you take that long walk with me
Knowing hell is waitin' there
Could you pull that switch yourself sir
With a sure and steady hand
Could you still tell yourself
That you're better than I am
My name is Billy Austin
I'm twenty-nine years old
I was born in Oklahoma
Quarter Cherokee I'm told

Hmm, måste faktiskt säga att Clawfinger har ena jävla bra texter också, även fast det inte är mitt direkta favoritband...
Vad du än tycker om de borde du ta och läsa texten nedan, den är helt underbar.
Clawfinger - Recipe For Hate
first of all I make sure I've got the right ingredients before I heat up the pan
I take a little bit of bitterness to grease it up & keep everything close at hand
then I add a few ounces of fresh frustration and half a cup of attitude
A rush of adrenaline to spice things up & then half a spoon of bad mood
one bottle of my sweat one bottle of tears, a few drops of my own blood
it all blends together like a cat and dog and the result is as clear as mud
I pick the worst situation out of the bunch & throw it right into the mix
& last but not least I add a little bit of spit, just a few little nasty cliques
That's my recipe for hate
I turn up the heat to 400 degrees and go to work on the attitude
I shake it all up in a provocative way to make sure it comes out rude
Then I grind down the frustration hard so that all of the scents can blend
I pour the sweat on top & then the tears to make sure that I don't make friends
when the mood is wrong, everything is right, I can add the adrenaline
but I've got to be careful with the dose I use, the effect shouldn't wear to thin
the blood comes last cos' it always has a tendancy to cool and coagulate
so I calculate and make no mistakes, it's so fresh that it still pulsates
That's my recipe for hate......
When the meal is done you get a spoiled appetite & a dish full of disagree
some ignorance on the side, a plate full of hate, served with a fistful of me

Det Är nånting du lämnat kvar
En doft av alkohol och sav
O nåt du aldrig får tillbaks
För på mitt golv bland skärvor o glas
Finns en bit av ditt hjärta kvar
O alla tusen mirakel
Som jag lova dej en natt
Karenina
Karenina
Karenina
Jag har bilder av dig kvar
Alla partyn o bakfylledar
Din kropp dina andetag
O alla tusen mirakel
Som vi lovade varann
Karenina
Karenina
Karenina
Jag förstod aldrig orden som du sa
Aldrig varför vi två var ett par
Så medan jag väntar på ett svar
Ska jag kyssa ditt häдrta i kras
Här på mitt golv bland skärvor o glas
För jag har inga mirakel
Att lova nån i natt
Karenina
Karenina
Karenina
Mitt pussel blev aldrig klart
Jag ser ditt hjärta brinner klart
Som en cigarett i mitt askfat
(Som nåt man aldrig får ha kvar)

Ebba Grön - Die Mauer 🙂
Halt! Här får ingen passera,
här kommer ingen förbi.
Du kommer aldrig över nåt mera
så gå är du snäll om ditt liv är kärt.
Över taggtråden såg jag min livskamrat.
Susanne stå och gestikulera.
Jag har gått här i tjugo år snart
men med en K-pist är det svårt att diskutera.
Jag gick långsamt hemåt, hemåt den kvällen.
Skulle jag få se henne igen?
Hjärnan värkte, hjärtat värkte.
Skulle jag bli hel igen?
En dag så stod, så stod den bara där,
en mur mellan mej och den jag hade kär.
Vi bor två kvarter ifrån varann
men en grå prick är det enda jag ser av Susanne.
Vi skulle få leva här, vi skulle få leva här,
vi skulle få leva här, vi skulle få leva här.
Alla vackra rosor är våta
av blodet från ert heliga korståg.
Jag ska aldrig förlåta
det som hände vid muren.
Jag har tänkt jävligt mycket, mycket på att fly.
Jag vill se hennes kropp,
jag vill smeka hennes hy,
höra hennes stämma,
vara henne nära.
Jag ska viska i hennes öra.
Vi skulle få leva här...
Ja jag vet, jag vet precis hur,
jag flyger över eran mur.
Å jag vet, å jag vet,
jag vet precis hur.
"I´ll be the acid spy".
Jag gör vad jag vill.
Jag vet precis hur...
Vi skulle få leva här...
