Hoe voel je je nu uitgedrukt in songteksten #12

Marco

Ik veeg de tranen van m'n gezicht
Je hebt nog steeds je ogen dicht
Ik zou wel uren kunnen kijken
Naar hoe je hier nu voor me ligt
Je leefde altijd al met de dag
Maar de laatste tijd als ik je zag
Had je geen zin meer om te lachen
Ik vroeg me af waar dat aan lag

Want zo is het leven
Geluk en verdriet
Het werd je gegeven
Maar je wilde het niet
Ben je nu gelukkig
Of heb je nu spijt
Mis je de jaren
Dat wij samen waren
Want dat was toch een mooie tijd

Ik vraag me af waar of je nu bent
En of ik je wel heb gekend
Want iets in jou waar ik niet bij kom
Is aan dit leven nooit gewend
Al kon je iets meer van me op aan
En ik had dichter bij je gestaan
Had ik je dan iets kunnen zeggen
Waardoor je dit misschien niet had gedaan

Want dit was je leven
Geluk en verdriet
Het werd je gegeven
Maar je wilde het niet
Ben je gelukkig
Of heb je nu spijt
Mis je de jaren
Dat wij samen waren
Want dat was toch een mooie tijd

Als je kiezen mocht
Waar je geen zou gaan
Zou je terugkomen naar hier
Of ver hier vandaan

Dit was je leven
Geluk en verdriet
Het werd je gegeven
Maar je wilde het niet
Ben je gelukkig
Of heb je nu spijt
Mis je de jaren
Dat wij samen waren
Want dat was toch een mooie tijd

Dit was je leven
Hier was je thuis
Waar ben je gebleven
Zo ver van huis
Ben je verdrietig
Of ben je bevrijd
En waren de jaren
Die wij samen waren
Niet meer dan een verspilling van tijd
Hoe dan ook
Je bent alles kwijt

je moet je het schompes werken
en je doet het maar waarvoor?
het kan elk moment gebeurd zijn
maar ze gaan nog even door
nog dichter bij de afgrond
nog dichter op het vuur
en het wordt alleen maar
erger met het uur....

bommen voor de vrede
leugens om het geld
en wij moeten betalen
ook al had je niks besteld
waar halen ze de lef
en de gore moed vandaan
lief, trek iets moois aan
want we gaan

dansen dansen dansen
dansen op een vulkaan

dit is de grote vrijheid
je mag zeggen wat je denkt
niet dat het iets uitmaakt
met hoeveel je ook bent
ze doen toch wat ze willen
al moet de hele boel vergaan
lief, trek iets moois aan
want we gaan

dansen dansen dansen
dansen op de vulkaan

straks is het verboden
of te laat om nog te gaan
lief trek iets moois aan
want we gaan

dansen dansen dansen
dansen op de vulkaan
dansen dansen dansen danse

I feel shipwrecked, I might as well be shipwrecked
I'm helpless and alone drifting out to sea
I can't believe what you said to me

Even standing on the corner of a busy city street
I still feel so lonely
Why do you say you want to be with me
But the next day say you don't

I'm shipwrecked, I might as well be shipwrecked
I'm helpless and alone drifting out to sea
I can't believe what you said to me
Without you I feel shipwrecked
But I can't let it show
A million miles away from anywhere, ooh, ooh, ohh

Is it my imagination
Or is it getting darker, are the waves getting higher
I'm a million miles from anywhere
A million miles from anything I know

You know that's why I'm shipwrecked
I might as well be shipwrecked
I'm helpless and alone drifting out to sea
I can't believe what you said to me
You know that's why I'm shipwrecked, shipwrecked
Losing my direction
Please come and rescue me (shipwrecked)
Shipwrecked
Shipwrecked
Shipwrecked
Shipwrecked...

Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid
Or am I just stoned?

I went to a shrink
To analyze my dreams
she says it's lack of sex that's bringing me down
I went to a whore
she said my life's a bore
So quit my whining cause it's bringing her down

Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid
Or am I jus stoned?

Grasping to control
So I better hold on

Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid
Or am I just stoned?

Nichts ist für dich
nichts war für dich
nichts bleibt für dich
für immer

Sometimes it's a bitch...sometimes it's a breeze
Sometimes love's blind...and sometimes it sees
Sometimes it's roses...and, sometimes it's weeds
Sometimes it's a bitch...sometimes it's a breeze
Sometimes the picture just ain't what it seems
You get what you want...but it's not what you need
Sometimes it's a bitch...sometimes...it's a breeze
Well it's a breeze...it's a breeze...it's a breeze...

Who would not fall in love with that look in her eyes or that smile
She's an angel
Who would not feel the bliss after one single kiss from her lips
She's an angel

She She's a Symphony
An enchanting rhapsody
waiting only for me
how she makes me fly
Cuz I'm happy you see

Who would not fall in love with that look in her eyes or that smile
She's an angel
Who would not feel the bliss after one single kiss from her lips
She's an angel

Only Covered Eyes
couldn't ignore her beauty
She came straight from heaven...

I can tell you what they say in space
That our earth is too grey
But when the spirit is so digital
The body acts this way
That world was/is* killing me
That world was/is* killing me
Disassociative

The nervous systems down, the nervous systems down

I know

I can never get out of here
I don't want to just float in fear
A dead astronaut in space

Sometimes we walk like we were shot through our heads, my love
We write our song in space like we are already dead and gone
Your world was/is*killing me
Your world was/is* killing me
Disassociative
Your world was/is* killing me
Your world was/is* killing me
Disassociative

I can never get out of here
I don't want to just float in fear
A dead astronaut in space
The nervous systems down, the nervous systems down
I know

*= naar eigen invulling..

What can I do to make you love me
What can I do to make you care
What can I say to make you feel this
What can I do to get you there

There's only so much I can take
And i just got to let it go
And who knows I might feel better yeah
If I don't try and I don't hope

No more waiting, no more aching,
No more fighting, no more trying...

Maybe there's nothing more to say
And in a funny way I'm calm
Because the power is not mine
I'm just gonna let it fly

Love me Love me Love me...

_{Zo ongeveer dan...}

Yes I'm wishing my life away
These things I'll never say
If I could say what I want to say
I'd say I wanna blow you away
Be with you every night
Am I squeezing you too tight
If I could say what I want to see
I want to see you go down
On one knee
"Marry me today"
Yes, I'm wishing my life away
But these things I'll never say
These things I'll never say

Isn't it strange
That you told me one thing suddenly changed your mind
Isn't it strange
That you called me for me turn away and leave me behind

I wanna know where we are
Should I pretend and let things be
I wanna know when what you've done
Could you come face to face with me

Now it feels like I'm drowning
Feels like I'm drowning without you
I know the feeling
'Cause I felt this all before

I hope you don't feel just like me
I hope you don't feel just like me
I hope you don't feel just like me
I hope you're happy

Isn't it strange
That the world seems to turn away when I try to explain
What's so strange
That two can't be as one and another same

And it feels like I'm drowning
Feels like I'm drowning without you
I know the feeling
'Cause I felt this all before
And it feels like I'm dying
Feels like I'm dying now I know the truth

I hope you don't feel just like me
I hope you don't feel just like me
I hope you don't feel just like me
I hope you're happy
Don't feel just like me
I hope you don't feel just like me
I hope you don't feel just like me
I hope you're happy

Don't feel just like me
I hope you don't feel just like me
Fuck I hope you feel much worse than me
Maybe not so happy
Not so happy, yeah, not so happy, yeah
Not so happy, welcome to my world
Not so happy, yeah, not so happy, yeah
Not so happy, welcome to my world

I was stitched up by the hands of fate
Said how you gonna make it on your own
If luck is a lady?
Maybe luck is a lady

I was going down for the third time
My heart was broken I was not open
To your suggestions
I had so many questions
That you just kissed away

Tell me, I guess that cupid was in disguise
The day you walked in and changed my life
I think it's amazing
The way that love can set you free

So I walk in the midday sun
I never thought that my saviour would come
I think it's amazing
I think it's amazing

I think you're amazing

You tried to save me from myself
Said 'Darling kiss as many as you want!
My love's still available
And I know that you are insatiable'

We're like victims of the same disease
Look at your Big Bad Daddy, and your mom
And your mom... was always acting crazy

I was going down for the third time
My heart was broken,
I thought that loving you was out of the question
Then I saw my reflection
Saying please don't let this go

Tell me, I guess that cupid was in disguise
The day you walked in changed my life
I think it's amazing
The way love can set you free

So now I walk in the midday sun
I never though that my saviour would come
I think it's amazing
I think you're amazing
Celebrate the love of the one you're with

Celebrate, this life with you baby
I think you should celebrate yeah
Don't put your love in chains baby
No, no, walk in the midday sun
I thought I was dreaming
I think it's amazing
I think you're amazing
I said celebrate the love of the one you're with

As this life gets colder
And the devil inside
tells you to give up

I hear your reasons why
Where did you sleep last night?
And was she worth it, was she worth it?

'Cos I'm strong enough
To live without you
Strong enough and I quit crying
Long enough now I'm strong enough
To know you gotta go

There's no more to say
So save your breath
And then walk away
No matter what I hear you say
I'm strong enough to know you gotta go

So you feel misunderstood
Baby, have I got news for you
On being used, I could write a book
You don't wanna hear about it

I've been losing sleep
You've been going cheap
She ain't worth half of me it's true
I'm telling you

Now I'm strong enough to live without you
Strong enough and I quit crying
Long enough now I'm strong enough
To know you gotta go

Come hell or waters high
You'll never see me cry
This is our last goodbye, it's true

I'm telling you
That I'm strong enough to live without you
Stron enough and I quit crying
Long enough now I'm strong enough
To know you gotta go

There's no more to say
So save your breath
And you walk away
No matter what I hear you say
I'm strong enough to know you gotta go

Just one of those days
Just another day, it don't go your way
(And tomorrow can't come soon enough for me)
Just one of those days- oooh
Just another day, it don't go your way
(And tomorrow can't come soon enough)

Meat Loaf met het nummer Heaven Can Wait

heaven can wait
and a band of angels wrapped up in my heart
will take me through the lonely night
through the cold of the day
and i know, i know
heaven can wait
and all the gods come down here just to sing for me
and the melody's gonna make be fly
without pain, without fear

give me all of your dreams
and let me go along on your way
give me all of your prayers to sing
and i'll turn the night into the skylight of day
i got a taste of paradise
i'm never gonna let it slip away
i got a taste of paradise
it's all i really need to make me stay-
just like a child again

heaven can wait
and all i got is time until the end of time
i won't look back
i won't look back
let the altars shine

and i know that i've been released
but i don't know to where
and nobody's gonna tell me now
and i don't really care
no no no
i got a taste of paradise
that's all i really need to make me stay
i got a taste of paradise
if i had it any sooner you know
you know i never would have run away from my home

heaven can wait
and all i got is time until the end of time
well i won't look back
i won't look back
let the altars shine
heaven can wait
heaven can wait
i won't look back
i won't look back
let the altar shine
let the altar shine

Meat Loaf met het nummer For Crying Out Loud

i was lost till you were found
but i never know how far down
i was falling
before i reached the bottom

i was cold and you were fire
and i never knew how the pyre
could be burning
on the edge of the ice field

and now the chilly californian wind
is blowing down our bodies again
and we're sinking deeper and deeper in the chilly californian sand
oh i know you belong inside my aching heart
and can't you see my faded levi's bursting apart
and don't you hear me crying:
"oh babe, don't go"
and don't you hear me screaming
"how was i to know?"

i'm in the middle of nowhere
near the end of the line
but there's a border to somewhere waiting
and there's a tankful of time
oh give me just another moment to see the light of the day
and take me to another land where i don't have to stay
and i'm gonna need somebody to make me feel like you do
and i will receive somebody with open arms, open eyes
open up the sky and let the planet that i love shine through!

for crying out loud
you know i love you
for crying out loud
you know i love you
for crying out loud
you know i love you

i was damned and you were saved
and i never knew how enslaved
i was kneeling
in the chains of my master

i could laugh but you could cry
and i never knew just how high
i was flying
ah, with you right above me

and now the chilly californian wind
is blowing down our bodies again
and we're sinking deeper and deeper in the chilly californian sand
oh i know you belong inside my aching heart
and can't you see my faded levi's bursting apart
and don't you hear me crying:
"oh babe, don't go"
and don't you hear me screaming
"how was i to know?"

i'm in the middle of nowhere
near the end of the line
but there's a border to somewhere waiting
and there's a tankful of time
oh give me just another moment to see the light of the day
and take me to another land where i don't have to stay
and i'm gonna need somebody to make me feel like you do
and i will receive somebody with open arms, open eyes
open up the sky and let eh planet that i love shine through

for crying out loud
you know i love you
for crying out loud
you know i love you
for crying out loud
you know i love you

for taking in the rain when i'm feeling so dry
for giving me the answers when i'm asking you why
my oh my
for that i thank you

for taking in the sun when i feel so cold
for giving me a child when my body is old
and don't you know
that i need you

for coming to my room when you know i'm alone
for finding me a freeway and for driving me home
and you got to know
for that i serve you

for pulling me away when i'm starting to fall
for revving me up when i'm starting to stall
and you got to know
for that i want you

for taking and for giving and for playing the game
for praying for my future in the days that remain
oh lord
for that i hold you

ah, but most of all
for crying out loud
for that i love you
ah, but most of all
for crying out loud
for that i love you
ah, but most of all
for crying out loud
for that i love you

when you're crying out loud
you know i love you

Ik zit alleen
Ineengedoken
Ik ben een schaduw van de man die ik ooit was
Mijn hoofd is leeg
Mijn hart gebroken
En mijn handen houden jou nog altijd vast

En er gaat nooit een dag voorbij
Dat ik jou niet meer voel
Of dat ik jou niet meer mis
En het bed is te koud voor mij
Wanneer het niet door jou beslapen is

Dit warme huis
Wordt alsmaar killer
Tot de tijd je laatste sporen heeft gewist

Ik schreeuw je naam
En sluit mijn ogen
Wacht op antwoord ook al heeft het weinig zin
Ik blijf geloven
Dat jij mijn stem hoort
Ook al is het tegen beter weten in

En er gaat nooit een dag voorbij
Dat ik jou niet meer voel
En dat ik jou niet meer mis
En het bed is te koud voor mij
Omdat het niet door jou beslapen is

Ons mooie huis
Wordt alsmaar stiller
Tot er niets meer van je stem te horen is

Oh, mijn hart is verbrijzeld
Mijn droom gegijzeld door de eenzaamheid
Je stem wordt steeds trager
Je beeld steeds vager
Oh, ik wil je nog niet kwijt

En er gaat nooit een dag voorbij
Dat ik jou niet meer voel
En dat ik jou niet meer mis
En het bed is te koud voor mij
Wanneer het niet door jou beslapen is

Dit grote huis
Wordt alsmaar leger
Omdat alles zonder jou zo zinloos is

Schitterend nummer.. waarom komt het mij gvd zo bekent voor

Ik schreeuw je naam
En sluit mijn ogen
Wacht op antwoord ook al heeft het weinig zin
Ik blijf geloven
Dat jij mijn stem hoort
Ook al is het tegen beter weten in

Oh, mijn hart is verbrijzeld
Mijn droom gegijzeld door de eenzaamheid
Je stem wordt steeds trager
Je beeld steeds vager
Oh, ik wil je nog niet kwijt

.....

Today is the last day that I'm using words
They've gone out, lost their meaning
Don't function anymore

Let's, let's, let's get unconscious honey
Let's get unconscious honey

Today is the last day that I'm using words
They've gone out, lost their meaning
Don't function anymore

Traveling, leaving logic and reason
Traveling, to the arms of unconsciousness
Traveling, leaving logic and reason
Traveling, to the arms of unconsciousness

Let's get unconscious honey
Let's get unconscious
Let's get unconscious honey
Let's get unconscious

Words are useless, especically sentences
They don't stand for anything
How could they explain how I feel

Traveling, traveling, I'm traveling
Traveling, traveling, leaving logic and reason
Traveling, traveling, I'm gonna relax
Traveling, traveling, in the arms of unconsciousness

And inside we're all still wet
Longing and yearning
How can I explain how I feel?

Traveling, traveling (repeat twice)
Traveling, traveling, in the arms of unconsciousness

And all that you've ever learned
Try to forget
I'll never explain again

Happiness lies in your own hand
It took me much too long to understand
How it could be
Until you shared your secret with me

Mmm mmm (skip for the first two times)
Something's comin' over, mmm mmm
Something's comin' over, mmm mmm
Something's comin' over me
My baby's got a secret

You gave me back the paradise
That I thought I lost for good
You helped me find the reasons why
It took me by surprise that you understood
You knew all along
What I never wanted to say
Until I learned to love myself
I was never ever lovin' anybody else

i'll read to you here, save your eyes
you'll need them, your boat is at sea
your anchor is up, you've been swept away
and the greatest of teachers won't hesitate
to leave you there, by yourself,
chained to fate

i alone love you
i alone tempt you
i alone love you
fear is not the end of this!

it's easier not to be great
and measure these things by your eyes
we long to be here by his resolve
alone in the church by and by
to cradle the baby in space
and leave you there by yourself
chained to fate

oh, now, we took it back too far,
only love can save us now,
all these riddles that you burn
all come runnin' back to you,
all these rhythms that you hide
only love can save us now,
all these riddles that you burn
yeah, yeah, yeah

The sanest days are mad
Why don't you find out for yourself ?
Then you'll see the price
Very closely

Some men here
They have a special interest
In your career
They wanna help you to grow
And then syphon all your dough
Why don't you find out for yourself ?
Then you'll see the glass
Hidden in the grass

You'll never believe me, so
Why don't you find out for yourself ?
Sick down to my heart
That's just the way it goes

Some men here
They know the full extent of
Your distress
They kneel and pray
And they say :
"Long may it last"

Why don't you find out for yourself ?
Then you'll see the glass
Hidden in the grass
Bad scenes come and go
For which you must allow
Sick down to my heart
That's just the way it goes

Don't rake up my mistakes
I know exactly what they are
And ... what do YOU do ?
Well ... you just SIT THERE
I've been stabbed in the back
So many many times
I don't have any skin
But that's just the way it goes

Waar ik ben
Daar ben jij
Je bent eigenlijk nooit weggeweest
Als een schaduw volg je mij
Door mn huis, door mn hoofd
Ik zou vrij zijn, maar dat ben ik niet
Het is wel over, maar nog niet voorbij

When I see you sticky as lips
As licky as trips
I can't lick that far
But when you pout
The way you shout out loud
It makes me want to start
And when I see you happy as a girl
That swims in a world of magic show
It makes me bite my fingers through
To think I could've let you go

And when I see you
Take the same sweet steps
You used to take
I say I'll keep on holding you
My arms so tight
I'll never let you slip away

And when I see you kitten as a cat
Yeah as smitten as that
I can't get that small
Tthe way you fur
The how you purr
It makes me want to paw you all
And when I see you happy as a girl
That lives in a world of make-believe
It makes me pull my hair all out
To think I could've let you leave

And when I see you
Take the same sweet steps
You used to take
I know I'll keep on holding you
In arms so tight
They'll never let you go

The Cure - High
Alleen ist geen girl, maar dat boeit niet.
