Hoe voel je je nu uitgedrukt in (song)teksten (deel 34)

indecision is a curious thing
it can turn your charity into sin
hesitation or the blink of an eye
can make your truth feel just like a lie

what if you were raised to feel naturally grateful
guilty
what if you were raised to feel naturally grateful

repetition as a way of life
it's a safe way out
but a long hard fight
isolation is a means to an end
it's amazing how fast
you'll forget your friends

what if you don't have what it takes to be humble
worthy
what if you don't have what it takes to be humble

feed your head
save your breath
because one of these days
because one of these days
why must I feel I'm the one
who must show you the way
who must show you the way

feed your head
save your breath
because one of these days
you might need it
why must I feel I'm the one
who must show you to make you believe it

any fool can see that I'm a bad example
if the only advice I bring
is to chew on your food
and save your string

maybe I don't have what it takes to be humble
worthy
maybe I don't have what it takes to be humble

feed your head
save your breath
because one of these days
you might need it
why must I feel I'm the one
who must show you to make you believe it

feed your head
save your breath
because one of these days
because one of these days
why must I feel I'm the one
who must show you to make you believe it
to make you believe

When I think of all the sorrow
It is hard to take a breath
People fighting one another
And I feel there's nothing left
When I feel there's nothing left...

Hey! Cut me loose, now I'm feeling fine, yeah I'm feeling fine!
Shake worldly blues, now I'm feeling fine, yeah! I'm feeling fine!
We're just like traffic in a big town.
You'd better stop, you'd better slow down!

And the man I know is sleeping
(no he's gone)
Till those northern spirits send
All the magic of a kind word
(of afar)
You will always be a friend
We take comfort in them...

Hey! Cut me loose, now I'm feeling fine, yeah I'm feeling fine!
Shake worldly blues, now I'm feeling fine, yeah! I'm feeling fine!
And there's enough to share, to go round
You'd better stop, you'd better slow down!

(laa la la la, woo!)

And you never see your brother
(he'll cut work)
You'll make him smile so see him someday
(walk and wait)
If we're happier tomorrow
(hope we'll try)
We'll be living for today
We'll be living for today

Saybia: The day after tomorrow

Please tell me
Why do birds
Sing when you're near me
Sing when you're close to me

They say that
I'm a fool
For loving you deeply
Loving you secretly

But I crash in my mind
Whenever you are near
Getting deaf dumb and blind
Just drowning in despair
I am lost in your flame
It's burning like the sun
And I call out your name
Whenever you are gone

Please tell me
Why can't I
Breathe when you're near me
Breathe when you're close to me
I know, you know I'm lost
In loving you deeply
Loving you secretly, secretly

But I crash in my mind
Whenever you are near
Getting deaf dumb and blind
Just drowning is despair
I am lost in your flame
It's burning like a sun
And I call out your name
Whenever you are gone

Silent scream - Richard Marx



Twenty four and he believes for
Sure he's got it made
Fame is here for good and
Looks will never fade
He doesn't know
The game is never over 'till
The cards have all been played

Eighty three and still he feels
His best is yet to come
He believes that youth is
Wasted on the young
He's alone
The only dream he ever has
Is being with someone

Love you when your standing tall
But nobody knows you when your falling
All you have to do is call
But nobody ever hears the silent scream

Christmas came and went again
But still nobody came
Staring at her wedding photo in a frame
She's alone
We should hope the loss of memory
Helps to ease the pain

Chorus

Memories, moments you recall
We should be remembered for the
Greatest of them all
You can't begin to live someone
Else's life
Or you're own will pass you by

Oh, who's to know
Maybe we can learn a thing or
Two from everyone

Chorus

Is dit nou later - Stef Bos


We speelden ooit verstoppertje,
in de pauze op het plein,
we hadden grote dromen,
want we waren toen nog klein,
de ene werd een voetballer,
de ander werd een held,
we geloofden in de toekomst,
want de meester had verteld,
jullie kunnen alles worden,
als je maar je huiswerk kent,
maar je moet geduldig wachten,
tot je later groter bent.

Is dit nou later?
Is dit nou later?
Als je groot bent,
een diploma vol met leugens,
waarin staat dat je volwassen bent,
is dit nou later?
Is dit nou later?
Als je groot bent,
ik snap geen donder van het leven,
ik weet nog steeds niet wie ik ben,
is dit nou later?

We spelen nog verstoppertje,
maar niet meer op het plein,
en de meesten zijn geworden,
wat ze toen niet wilden zijn,
we zijn allemaal volwassen,
wie niet weg is, is gezien,
en ik zou die hele chaos,
nu toch helder moeten zien,
maar ik zie geen hand voor ogen,
en het donker maakt me bang,
mama, mama, kan het licht aan op de gang?

Is dit nou later?
Is dit nou later?
Als je groot bent,
een diploma vol met leugens,
waarop staat dat je de waarheid kent,
is dit nou later?
Is dit nou later?
Als je groot bent,
ik snap geen donder van het leven,
ik weet nog steeds niet wie ik ben,
is dit nou later?

Is dit nou later?
Ik snap geen donder van het leven,
ik weet nog steeds niet wie ik ben.
Is dit nou later?

Wish you were here Lyrics
Artist(Band):Incubus

I dig my toes into the sand
The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds
Strewn across a blue blanket
I lean against the wind
Pretend that I am weightless
And in this moment I am happy...happy

I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here

I lay my head onto the sand
The sky resembles a backlit canopy
With holes punched in it
I'm counting UFOs
I signal them with my lighter
And in this moment I am happy...happy

I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
Wish you were here

The world's a roller coaster
And I am not strapped in
Maybe I should hold with care
But my hands are busy in the air saying:

I wish you were here
I wish you were

I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
Wish you were here

Honestly what will become of me
I don't like reality
It's way too clear to me
But really life is daily
We are what we don't see
We missed everything daydreaming

Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end

Travelling I only stop at exits
Wondering if I'll stay
Young and restless
Living this way I stress less
I want to pull away when the dream dies
The pain sets it and I don't cry
I only feel gravity and I wonder why

Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end

Dogs were whistling a new tune
Barking at the new moon
Hoping it would come soon so that they could die
Hoping it would come soon so that they could die
Die...
Die...
Die...
Die...

Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end

Well, the dogs were barking at the new moon, whistling a new tune
Hoping it would come soon...
And the sun was wondering if it should stay away for a day
Until the feeling went away
And the sky was falling...
And the clouds were dropping and the...
The rain forgot how to bring salvation
The dogs were barking at the new moon, whistling a new tune
Hoping it would come soon so that they could die..

I am an opportunity and I knock so softly
Sometimes I get loud when I wish everybody'd just
get off me
So many playas you'd think I was a ball game
Its every man for themself, there are no
team mates
This life gets lonely when everybody wants
something
This might have been your fate
But they'll get their's eventually
And I hope I'm there

Surrounded by familiar faces without names
None of them know me or want to share my pain
And they only wish to bask in my light, then fade
away
To win my love, to them a game
To watch me live my life in pain
When all is done and the glitter fades, fades
away
They'll get their's eventually
And I hope I'm there

I drank your poison cause you told me its wine
Shame on you if you fool once
Shame on me if you fool me twice
I didn't know the price
You'll get yours eventually

So what good am I to you if I can't be broken?
You'll get yours, yes you'll get yours
Eventually

John Denver & Placido Domingo - Perhaps Love

Perhaps love is like a resting place
A shelter from the storm
It exists to give you comfort
It is there to keep you warm
And in those times of trouble
When you are most alone
The memory of love will bring you home

Perhaps love is like a window
Perhaps an open door
It invites you to come closer
It wants to show you more
And even if you lose yourself
And don't know what to do
The memory of love will see you through

Oh, Love to some is like a cloud
To some as strong as steel
For some a way of living
For some a way to feel

And some say love is holding on
And some say letting go
And some say love is everything
And some say they don't know

Perhaps love is like the ocean
Full of conflict, full of pain
Like a fire when it's cold outside
Thunder when it rains
If I should live forever
And all my dreams come true
My memories of love will be of you

And some say love is holding on
And some say letting go
And some say love is everything
Some say they don't know

Perhaps love is like the ocean
Full of conflict, full of pain
Like a fire when it's cold outside
Or thunder when it rains
If I should live forever
And all my dreams come true
My memories of love will be of you

What's the point of trying to meet you in the middle
You got your point of view
There's nothing I can do
Can't change your mind
Can't leave it all behind
You're living in the past
We talk and talk
This goes on for hours
About how I should be
Why is it all me
Don't wanna fight
Don't wanna waste my time
Baby this can't last
I'm moving on, moving on

Can I go now
Say what you have to say
Happy you've got your way
There's nothing to discuss
Can I go now
Giving your point of view
Say what you wanted too
What's the point in us
Can I go now
Oh say what you have to say
Happy you've got your way
What's there to discuss

What's the point of trying to reach a compromise
When you're the judge and jury
What's the story
I can't make you see that I'm not always wrong
I can't make you right
It's time to move on
I'm moving on

Let's go lead a day I'll pack my bags be on my way
Sure don't need to stay
Where I'm not welcome anyway
Well now that's alright and that's OK yeah

There's nothing left to do
Maybe I'm not for you
So why don't you let it go

Tell me what's the point of all this
Talk, talk, talk, talk
We could go day and night
Still wouldn't make it right

Can I go now
Say what you have to say
Happy you've got your way
There's nothing to discuss
Can I go now
You're giving your point of view
Say what you wanted too
What's the point in us
Can I go now
I'll be on my way
Let's call it a day
Can I go now?
Now, why don't you let it go
Can I go now?

It’s the same old S.O.S.
But with brand new broken fortunes
And once again I turn to you
Once again I do I turn to you
It’s the same old S.O.S.
But with brand new broken fortunes
I’m the same underneath
But this you, you surely knew
Life is a pigsty
Life is a pigsty
Life is a pigsty
Life is a pigsty
Life, life is a pigsty
Life, life is a pigsty
Life, life is a pigsty
Life is a pigsty
And if you don’t know this
Then what do you know?
Every second of my life I only live for you
And you can shoot me
And you can throw me off a train
I still maintain
I still maintain
Life, life is a pigsty
Life is a pigsty
And I’d been shifting gears all along my life
But I’m still the same underneath
This you surely knew
I can’t reach you
I can’t reach you
I can’t reach you anymore
Can you please stop time?
Can you stop the pain?
I feel too cold
And now I feel too warm again
Can you stop this pain?
Can you stop this pain?
Even now in the final hour of my life
I’m falling in love again
Again
Even now in the final hour of my life
I’m falling in love again
Again
Again
Again
I’m falling in love again
Again
Again
Again

I'm a loser
I'm a loser
And I'm not what I appear to be

Of all the love I have won or have lost
there is one love I should never have crossed
She was a girl in a million, my friend
I should have known she would win in the end

I'm a loser
And I lost someone who's near to me
I'm a loser
And I'm not what I appear to be

Although I laugh and I act like a clown
Beneath this mask I am wearing a frown
My tears are falling like rain from the sky
Is it for her or myself that I cry

I'm a loser
And I lost someone who's near to me
I'm a loser
And I'm not what I appear to be

What have I done to deserve such a fate
I realize I have left it too late
And so it's true, pride comes before a fall
I'm telling you so that you won't lose all

I'm a loser
And I lost someone who's near to me
I'm a loser
And I'm not what I appear to be

Deze weer.

Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
Im tired and I
I want to go to bed

Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
And then leave me alone
Dont try to wake me in the morning
cause I will be gone
Dont feel bad for me
I want you to know
Deep in the cell of my heart
I will feel so glad to go

Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
I dont want to wake up
On my own anymore

Sing to me
Sing to me
I dont want to wake up
On my own anymore

Dont feel bad for me
I want you to know
Deep in the cell of my heart
I really want to go

There is another world
There is a better world
Well, there must be
Well, there must be
Well, there must be
Well, there must be
Well ...

Bye bye
Bye bye
Bye ...

En nu slapen .

Iedere dag verbaas ik me weer
Over hoeveel manieren er zijn
Om naar je te kijken
En aan je te denken
Het houdt maar niet op
Ik wil meer⤦
Het is als de zon hier
Rivieren van licht
Die steeds breder en voller
Mijn hart overstromen
Tot ik tenslotte mijn ogen stijf dicht knijp
En steeds verder weg droom

En de hemel is de aarde
Ze vallen samen zonder grens
En de hemel is de aarde
En een engel is een mens

Iedere nacht verbaas ik mij weer
Over hoeveel miljoenen sterren er zijn
Om lang naar te staren
En dan te bedenken
Ik zie ze wel staan
Maar ze zijn er niet meer

En de hemel is de aarde
E vallen samen zonder grens
En de hemel is de aarde
En een engel is een mens
En de hemel is de aarde
Je kunt er lopen, je kunt er staan
En de hemel is de aarde
En er komt geen einde aan

En de hemel is de aarde
E vallen samen zonder grens
En de hemel is de aarde
En een engel is een mens
En de hemel is de aarde
Je kunt er lopen, je kunt er staan
En de hemel is de aarde
En er komt geen einde aan

Leave me out with the waste
This is not what i do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be thinking of you
It's the wrong time
For somebody new
It's a small crime
And i've got no exuse

Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright?
If you dont shoot it how am i supposed to hold it
Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright
Is that alright with you?

Leave me out with the waste
This is not what i do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be cheating on you
It's the wrong time
but she's pulling me through
It's a small crime
And I've got no exuse

Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright?
If you dont shoot it how am i supposed to hold it
Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright
Is that alright with you?

Is that alright?
Is that alright?
Is that alright with you?
Is that alright?
Is that alright?
Is that alright with you?

No...

My love
There's only you in my life
The only thing that's right
My first love
You're every breath that I take
You're every step I make

And I
I want to share
All my love with you
No-one else will do
And your eyes
They tell me how much you care
Oh, yes
You will always be
My endless love

Two hearts
Two hearts that beat as one
Our lives have just begun
And forever
I'll hold you close in my arms
I can't resist your charms

And I
I'd play the fool
For you, I'm sure
You know I don't mind
(No you know I don't mind)
And, yes
You mean the world to me
I know I've found in you
My endless love

Bridge

And love
I'd play the fool
For you, I'm sure
You know I don't mind
(you know I don't mind)
Oh, yes
You'd be the only one
'Cause no, I can't deny
This love I have inside
And I'll give it all to you
My love (my love, my love)
My endless love

I don't want a lot for Christmas
There's just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is...
You

I don't want a lot for Christmas
There's just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I don't need to hang my stocking
There upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won't make me happy
With a toy on Christmas day
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you
You baby

I won't ask for much this Christmas
I don't even wish for snow
I'm just gonna keep on waiting
Underneath the mistletoe
I won't make a list and send it
To the North Pole for Saint Nick
I won't even stay awake to
Hear those magic reindeers click
'Cause I just want you here tonight
Holding on to me so tight
What more can I do
Baby all I want for Christmas is you
Ooh baby
All the lights are shining
So brightly everywhere
And the sound of children's
Laughter fills the air
And everyone is singing
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa won't you bring me the one I really need
Won't you please bring my baby to me...

Oh I don't want a lot for Christmas
This is all I'm asking for
I just want to see my baby
Standing right outside my door
Oh I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
Baby all I want for Christmas is...
You

All I want for Christmas is you... baby

We took a walk that night, but it wasn't the same
We had a fight on the promenade out in the rain
She said she loved me, but she had somewhere to go
She couldn't scream while I held her close
I swore I'd never let her go
Tell me what you wanna know
Oh come on, oh come on, oh come on
There ain't no motive for this crime
Jenny was a friend of mine
So come on, oh come on, oh come on

I know my rights, I've been here all day and it's time
For me to go, so let me know if it's alright
I just can't take this, I swear I told you the truth
She couldn't scream while I held her close
I swore I'd never let her go

Tell me what you wanna know
Oh come on, oh come on, oh come on
And then you whisper in my ear
I know what you're doing here
So come on, oh come on, oh come on
There ain't no motive for this crime
Jenny was a friend of mine
Oh come on, oh come on, oh come on

You took your coat off and stood in the rain
You were always crazy like that
I watched from my window
Always felt I was outside looking in on you
You were always the mysterious one with dark eyes and careless hair
You were fashionably sensitive, but too cool to care
Then you stood in my doorway, with nothing to say
Besides some comment on the weather
Well in case you failed to notice, in case you failed to see
This is my heart bleeding before you, this is me down on my knees
These foolish games are tearing me apart
Your thoughtless words are breaking my heart
You're breaking my heart
You were always brilliant in morning
Smoking your cigarettes and talking over coffee
You philosophies on art, Baroque moved you
You loved Mozart and you'd speak of your loved ones
As I clumsily strummed my guitar
You'd teach me of honest things
Things that were daring, things that were clean
Things that knew what an honest dollar did mean
So I hid my soiled hands behind my back
Somewhere along the line I must've gone off track with you
Excuse me, think I've mistaken you for somebody else
Somebody who gave a damn, somebody more like myself
These foolish games are tearing me apart
You're tearing me, tearing me, tearing me apart
Your thoughtless words are breaking my heart
You're breaking my heart
You took off your coat and stood in the rain
You were always crazy like that

Damien Rice - Rootless Tree

What I want from you is empty your head.
But they say be true, don't stain your bed.
And we do what we need to be free.
And it leans on me like a rootless tree.

What I want from us is learn to let go.
But we fake, we fuss, and fracture the times.
We go blind when we needed to see.
And this leans on me, like a rootless...

FUCK YOU, FUCK YOU, FUCK YOU
and all we've been through.
I said leave it, leave it, leave it,
it's nothing to you.
And if you hate me, hate me, hate me, hate me so good
that you just let me out
let me out, let me out?
Its hell when you're around.
Let me out, let me out, let me out.
Hell when you're around.
Let me out, let me out, let me out.

What I want from this
is to learn to let go.
No, not of you
of all that's been told.
Killers re-invent and believe
and this leans on me, like a rootless...

FUCK YOU, FUCK YOU, FUCK YOU
and all we've been through.
I said leave it, leave it, leave it,
it's nothing to you.
And if you hate me, hate me, hate me, hate me so good
that you just let me out
let me out, let me out?
Its hell when you're around.
Let me out, let me out, let me out.
Its hell when you're around.

Let me out, let me out, let me out
hell when you're around.
Let me out, let me out, let me out
hell when you're around.

Let me out, let me out, let me out, let me out.
Let me out, let me out, let me out, let me out.
LET ME OUT, LET ME OUT, LET ME OUT, LET ME OUT.
LET ME OUT, LET ME OUT, LET ME OUT!!!

FUCK YOU, FUCK YOU, LOVE YOU
and all you've been through.
I said leave it, leave it, leave it
it's nothing to you.
And if you hate me, hate me, hate me, hate me so good
that you just let me out
let me out, let me out, let me out, let me out?

LET ME OUT, LET ME OUT, LET ME OUT, LET ME OUT.
LET ME OUT, LET ME OUT, LET ME OUT, LET ME OUT.
LET ME OUT, LET ME OUT, LET ME OUT!!!

Let me out, let me out, let me out
hell when you're around.
Let me out, let me out, let me out
hell when you're around.
Let me out, let me out, let me out
hell when you're around.
Let me out, let me out, let me out
hell when you're around...

The stars light a sky
On a galaxy of emptiness tonight
Though I'm happiest
When there's no reason for me to be

With no one's expectation to weigh heavy on my heart
And so much hope it sometimes tears me all apart
Won't you please
Knock me off my feet for a while?
Could you please
Knock me off my feet for a while?

'Cause there's a galaxy of emptiness tonight
A whole galaxy of emptiness tonight
A galaxy of emptiness tonight

The stars light a sky
On a gutter full of broken dreams tonight
Though I'm not content, that's the way it seems to be
Still, I've been fighting all week
Though I don't know what for
Hoping someone else, somewhere near knows the score
Won't you please
Knock me off my feet for a while?
Could you please
Knock me off my feet for a while?

And there's a galaxy of emptiness tonight
There's a galaxy of emptiness tonight
A whole galaxy of emptiness tonight

Monkey see, monkey do
I spent my whole life surrounded by people like you
With all that expectation to weigh heavy on your heart
But no ideas to later tear it all apart
Won't you please
Knock me off my feet for a while?
Could you please
Knock me off my feet for a while?

'Cause there's a galaxy of emptiness tonight
A whole wide galaxy of emptiness tonight
Beware the galaxy of emptiness tonight
'Cause there's a galaxy of emptiness tonight
A whole wide galaxy of emptiness tonight
Yeah, there's a galaxy of emptiness
A whole wide galaxy of emptiness tonight
Beware the galaxy of emptiness tonight
(A galaxy of emptiness)
(A whole galaxy of stars)

You pretend that you’re alright;
The worst noise is
when you are keeping quiet.
I see you’re not the kind of girl,
Who will dramatise, traumatise.

Don’t fold your hands,
don’t hold your tongue.
The other girls will try
to prove you wrong.
The words will taunt you like a stone.
You can’t stand aside,
you can’t resign

It’s just the curse of being a girl tonight,
You must hold your head up high.
Being around, and you’re the purest girl
Tonight you bring reflections by their eyes.

You’re reaching out to grab his hand
He must be the world’s most tired man.
It sure began as compliments
If he sees it all, he must use it all.

It should be unforgettable,
The kindest guy should be convertible
But in the end of this monkey-hole
Full of concrete eyes, who never cries

It’s just the curse of being a girl tonight,
You can hardly make it change.
Look around,
it’s more than half of the world
Tonight you must go
through that same wreath.

It’s just the curse of being a girl tonight,
You can hardly make it change.
Look around,
it’s more than half of the world
Tonight you must go
through that same wreath.

Atomic Kitten - Whole Again

If you see me walking down the street
Staring at the sky and dragging my two feet
You just pass me by
You don't miss me cry
But you could make me whole again
And if you see me with another man
Laughing and joking, making the best of this I can
I'm trying to put you down
Baby I still want you around
Cause you can make me whole again

Looking back on when we first met
Can't escape and I cannot forget baby you're the one
You still turn me on
You can make me whole again

Time is laying heavy on my heart
Seems I've got too much of it since we've been apart
My friends make me smile if only for a short while
But you can make me whole again

For now I have to wait
But baby if you change your mind
Don't be too late, cause I just can't go on
It's already been too long
But you could make me whole again
