Vertical Horizon met het nummer You're A God


I've gotta be honest
I think you know
We're covered in lies and that's okay
And there's somewhere beyond this, I know
But I hope I can find the words to say

Never again, no...
No, never again...

'Cause you're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
That you would know
You're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
I'd let you go

But I've been unable
To put you down
I'm still learning things I ought to know by now
It's under the table, so
I need something more to show, somehow

So, never again, no...
No, never again...

'Cause you're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
That you would know
You're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
I'd let you go

I've got to be honest
I think you know
We're covered in lies and that's okay
There's somewhere beyond this, I know
But I hope I can find the words to say

Never again, no...
No, never again...

'Cause you're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
That you would know
You're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
I'd let you go

You're a god
(Oh, and I am not)
I just thought that you would know...
(Oh, I thought that you would know)

You're a god
(Oh, and I am not)
I just thought
I'd let you go

Auto ongeluk gehad, ben blij dat ik mn gordel om had

I'm up on the eleventh floor
And I'm watching the cruisers below
He's down on the street
And he's tryin' hard to pull sister Flo
Oh, my heart's in the basement
My weekend's at an all time low
'Cause she's hoping to score
So I can't see her letting him go
Walk out of her heart
Walk out of her mind
Oh not her

She's so swishy in her satin and tat
In her frock coat and bipperty-bopperty hat
Oh God, I could do better than that
oh yeah

She's an old-time ambassador
Of sweet talking, night walking games
And she's known in the darkest clubs
For pushing ahead of the dames
If she says she can't do it
Then she can't do it, she don't make false claims
But she's a Queen, and such a queen
Such a laughter is sucked in their brains
Now she's leading him on
And she'll lay him right down
Yes she's leading him on
And she'll lay him right down
But it could have been me
Yes, it could have been me
Why didn't I say, why didn't I say, no, no, no

She's so swishy in her satin and tat
In her frock coat and bipperty-bopperty hat
Oh God, I could do better than that

So I lay down a while
And I gaze at my hotel wall
Oh the cot is so cold
It don't feel like no bed at all
Yeah I lay down a while
And I look at my hotel wall
And he's down on the street
So I throw both his bags down the hall
And I'm phoning a cab
'Cause my stomach feels small
There's a taste in my mouth
And it's no taste at all
It could have been me
Oh yeah, it could have been me
Why didn't I say, Why didn't I say, no, no, no

She's so swishy in her satin and tat
In her frock coat and bipperty-bopperty hat
Oh God, I could do better than that

Welcome to my nightmare
I think you're gonna like it
I think you're gonna feel like you belong
A nocturnal vacation
Unnecessary sedation
You want to feel at home 'cause you belong

Welcome to my nightmare
Welcome to my breakdown
I hope I didn't scare you
That's just the way we are when we come down
We sweat and laugh and scream here
'cuz life is just a dream here
You know inside you feel right at home here

Welcome to my breakdown
Whoa
You're welcome to my nightmare
Yeah

Welcome to my nightmare
I think you're gonna like it
I think you're gonna feel that you belong
We sweat laugh and scream here
'cuz life is just a dream here
You know inside you feel right at home here
Welcome to my nightmare
Welcome to my breakdown
Yeah

[knip]

Want ik wil jouw schouder om op te huilen
Jouw huis om in te schuilen
Maar alles wat ik wil lijkt zo ver weg
Zo ver weg van mij
Ja, alles wat ik wil lijkt zo ver weg

[/knip]

Oh elendes und gar schmerzvolles Leben
Krieg haben wir
Sterben und Hungersnot
Krieg, Hitze höhlt uns aus
Bei Tag und Nacht
Flöhe, Milben, Ratten
Zerren an unseren Leibern
Deren Leben gar kurz ist

Temps de doleur et de temptacion
Aages de plour, d´ envie et de tourment
Temps de langour et de dampnacion
Aages meneur près du definement

Toute lèesse deffaut
Tous cueurs ont prins par aussaut
Tristesse et merencolie

Temps plains d´orreur qui tout fait faussement
Aages menteur, plain d´orgueil et d´envie
Temps sanz honeur et sanz vray jugement
Aage en tristour qui abrege la vie

Zo voel ik me niet echt maar ik luisterde dat nummer en vond het een mooie tekst.

U2 met het nummer One


Is it getting better Or do you feel the same Will it make it easier on you
now You got someone to blame You say...

One love One life When it's one need In the night One love We get to
share it Leaves you baby if you Don't care for it

Did I disappoint you Or leave a bad taste in your mouth You act like you
never had love And you want me to go without Well it's...

Too late Tonight To drag the past out into the light We're one, but we're
not the same We get to Carry each other Carry each other One...


Have you come here for forgiveness Have you come tor raise the dead
Have you come here to play Jesus To the lepers in your head


Did I ask too much More than a lot You gave me nothing Now it's all I
got We're one But we're not the same Well we Hurt each other
Then we do it again You say Love is a temple Love a higher law
Love is a temple Love the higher law You ask me to enter But then
you make me crawl And I can't be holding on To what you got
When all you got is hurt

One love One blood One life You got to do what you should One life
With each other Sisters Brothers One life But we're not the same
We get to Carry each other Carry each other

One...life

One

Oh to sing this song makes me angry
I'm not angry with you.
Is that all?
Is that all?
Is that all?

Oh to sing this song makes me happy
I'm not happy with you.
Is that all?
Is that all?
Is that all?

Is that all?
Is that all?
Is that all?
Is that all you want from me?

You got a fast car
I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere

Anyplace is better
Starting from zero got nothing to lose
Maybe we'll make something
But me myself I got nothing to prove

You got a fast car
And I got a plan to get us out of here
I been working at the convenience store
Managed to save just a little bit of money
We won't have to drive too far
Just 'cross the border and into the city
You and I can both get jobs
And finally see what it means to be living

You see my old man's got a problem
He live with the bottle that's the way it is
He says his body's too old for working
I say his body's too young to look like his
My mama went off and left him
She wanted more from life than he could give
I said somebody's got to take care of him
So I quit school and that's what I did

You got a fast car
But is it fast enough so we can fly away
We gotta make a decision
We leave tonight or live and die this way

I remember we were driving driving in your car
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone

You got a fast car
And we go cruising to entertain ourselves
You still ain't got a job
And I work in a market as a checkout girl
I know things will get better
You'll find work and I'll get promoted
We'll move out of the shelter
Buy a big house and live in the suburbs
You got a fast car
And I got a job that pays all our bills
You stay out drinking late at the bar
See more of your friends than you do of your kids
I'd always hoped for better
Thought maybe together you and me would find it
I got no plans I ain't going nowhere
So take your fast car and keep on driving

You got a fast car
But is it fast enough so you can fly away
You gotta make a decision
You leave tonight or live and die this way

Prince

Dig if u will the picture
Of u and I engaged in a kiss
The sweat of your body covers me
Can u my darling
Can u picture this?

Dream if u can a courtyard
An ocean of violets in bloom
Animals strike curious poses
They feel the heat
The heat between me and u

How can u just leave me standing?
Alone in a world that’s so cold? (so cold)
Maybe I’m just 2 demanding
Maybe I’m just like my father 2 bold
Maybe you’re just like my mother
She’s never satisfied (she’s never satisfied)
Why do we scream at each other
This is what it sounds like
When doves cry

Touch if u will my stomach
Feel how it trembles inside
You’ve got the butterflies all tied up
Don’t make me chase u
Even doves have pride

How can u just leave me standing?
Alone in a world so cold? (world so cold)
Maybe I’m just 2 demanding
Maybe I’m just like my father 2 bold
Maybe you’re just like my mother
She’s never satisfied (she’s never satisfied)
Why do we scream at each other
This is what it sounds like
When doves cry

How can u just leave me standing?
Alone in a world that’s so cold? (a world that’s so cold)
Maybe I’m just 2 demanding (maybe, maybe I’m like my father)
Maybe I’m just like my father 2 bold (ya know he’s 2 bold)
Maybe you’re just like my mother (maybe you’re just like my mother)
She’s never satisfied (she’s never, never satisfied)
Why do we scream at each other (why do we scream, why)
This is what it sounds like

When doves cry
When doves cry (doves cry, doves cry)
When doves cry (doves cry, doves cry)

Don’t cry (don’t cry)

When doves cry
When doves cry
When doves cry

When doves cry (doves cry, doves cry, doves cry
Don’t cry
Darling don’t cry
Don’t cry
Don’t cry
Don’t don’t cry

Nogmaals een ode aan een briljant man en voor jaren reeds de vertaler van mijn gevoelens

I never meant 2 cause u any sorrow
I never meant 2 cause u any pain
I only wanted 2 one time see u laughing
I only wanted 2 see u laughing in the purple rain

Purple rain purple rain
Purple rain purple rain
Purple rain purple rain

I only wanted 2 see u bathing in the purple rain

I never wanted 2 be your weekend lover
I only wanted 2 be some kind of friend
Baby I could never steal u from another
It’s such a shame our friendship had 2 end

Purple rain purple rain
Purple rain purple rain
Purple rain purple rain

I only wanted 2 see u underneath the purple rain

Honey I know, I know, I know times are changing
It’s time we all reach out 4 something new
That means u 2
U say u want a leader
But u can’t seem 2 make up your mind
I think u better close it
And let me guide u 2 the purple rain

Purple rain purple rain
Purple rain purple rain

If you know what I’m singing about up here
C’mon raise your hand

Purple rain purple rain

I only want 2 see u, only want 2 see u
In the purple rain

The Cardinal Sin

Sail to the stars on your shining desires.
"Reasons? There are none" cried the whisky laden brain.
"When all is said and done it amounts to just the same".

There in your starry eyes lie hopes that have been betrayed.

The cause of your desire
Can also lead to your demise.
When all is said and done
It will be you who pays the price
As countless fools are often loathe to testify
"It's an illusion of life, the whole cause of our demise".

Sail to the stars on your shining desires.
Lucretia waits in vain for the child of her dreams.
Within her aching womb there burns a funeral pyre.

There in your starry eyes lie hopes that have been betrayed.
The prize that you claim can never be yours to take
Like castles in Spain,hope is all that will remain.

Abstain from the fools paradise, it's an illusion of life,the whole cause of our demise.
Fools are often loathe to testify "it's an illusion of life, the whole cause of our demise".

Contemplate the world and it's traitors to the soul.
The forces of derision and their legions manifold.
Usurpers of the crown,all pretenders to the throne,
Your world is linked in chains "All in one, One in all" (x9)

Fools are often loathe to testify
It's an illusion of life
The whole cause of our demise
It's an illusion of life (x4)

Dead can dance rules

Apocalyptica - Harmageddon

...

If I would tell you
how much you mean to me
I think you wouldn't understand it
So I'll wait, I'll wait until
this day comes
When you will understand it

But I can't help myself,
I can't stop myself,
I am going crazy
And I can't stop myself,
Cannot control myself,
I am going crazy

And I love you,
I want you
I wanna talk to you,
I wanna be with you
And I love you,
I want you
I wanna talk to you,
I wanna be with you

I cannot change it,
I'm sure not making it
One big hell of a fuss
I cannot turn my back
I got to face the fact
Life without you is crazy

And I love you,
I want you
I wanna talk to you,
I wanna be with you
And I love you,
I want you
I wanna talk to you,
I wanna be with you

Kiss me, thrill me,
don't say goodbye
Hug me, love me,
don't say goodbye
Ooooooh, don't say goodbye

But I can't help myself,
I can't stop myself,
I am going crazy
I cannot turn my back,
I got to face the fact
Life without you is hazy

And I love you,
I want you
I wanna talk to you,
I wanna be with you
And I love you,
I want you
I wanna talk to you,
I wanna be with you

Ooooh, ooooh, kiss me goodbye

Baby, I don't want to fall in love with you
I try, try, try but I can't get around the truth
Please don't say my name, give this heart a break
I don't want to make the same mistake but it's too late
I'll leave on the light
These arms are open all night

I got your taste in the back of my mouth
I want to reach in and pull it out
And I'd be lying if I didn't say
When you're this close I'm afraid
Of the way I'll feel if I touch your hair
The way I'll miss you when you're not there
And that I'll see you when I close my eyes
It's too late, I've crossed that line

Simply because you can breathe,
Doesn’t mean you’re alive,
Or that you really live,
This life here has taken it’s toll
And she just doesn’t know how much more she can give

But here, at the top of the world, I raise my hands and I clench my fists,
They stand before me below demanding the answers with flips of a switch

I don’t understand where you got this idea,
So deeply engrained in your head
That this world is something that you must impress,
Because I couldn’t care less

A need for revolution’s rising, it comes to the surface, gasping for air,
We’re not putting up with this planet one more day much less one more year

I don’t understand where you got this idea,
So deeply engrained in your head
That this world is something that you must impress,
Because I couldn’t care less

So here and now, in our rotting nation
The blood, it pours, it’s all on our hands now
We live, in fear, of our own potential
To win, to lose, it’s all on our hands now

I have an amerikan dream,
But it involves black masks and gasoline,
One day I’ll turn these thoughts into screams,
At a world turned it’s back down on me

I don’t understand where you got this idea,
So deeply engrained in your head
That this world is something that you must impress,
Because I couldn’t care less

Ashley Gearing - Can You Hear Me When I Talk To You

Time passes by so quickly,
But I guess I thought you'd be here forever.
I never even had the chance,
To say goodbye.
There's so many things to tell you,
Left unsaid until now.

Can you hear me when I talk to you?
Do the words I say ever make it through?
Can you hear me when I talk to you?
'Cause I'd give anything if I just knew.

Ev'ry night, I have the same dream.
The one where you get to hold me.
We laugh an' talk until the morning,
An' then you vanish, yeah.
It always leaves me feeling helpless,
When I wake up an' you're not there.

Can you hear me when I talk to you?
Do you know how much I'd love to be with you?
Can you hear me when I talk to you?
'Cause I'd give anything if I just knew.

Instrumental break.

Living in this world without you,
I constantly search through my mem'ries.
Hoping that I find some treasures,
That I passed over, yeah.
All that I took for granted,
Means so much now, an' I won't let it go.

Can you hear me when I talk to you?
'Cause I never said somer things that I meant to.
Can you hear me when I talk to you?
'Cause I'd give anything if I just knew.

You know, I never said some things that I meant to.
Can you hear me when I talk to you?
'Cause I'd give anything if I just knew.

I miss you Daddy.

Marco Borsato - Vlinder

Open je ogen maar
En zie wat ik zie
Ik weet hoe mooi je bent
Maar jij weet het zelf nog niet

Het komt allemaal goed
Wacht nou maar af wat de tijd met je doet
Het is nu nog te vroeg
Alles wat groot is begon ooit klein
Je hoeft niet meteen een vlinder te zijn

Weet dat de tijd zal je helpen, geloof maar gewoon wat ik zeg
Al lijken je kleurrijke vleugels voor eeuwig gevangen
Ja, toch op een dag vlieg je weg
Hoog in de lucht
Zul je de wereld heel anders gaan zien
Voel je de rust
Zul je genieten ook als het maar even is
Adem het in
Durf, dan ontdek je de liefde misschien
En als je haar vindt
Voel je bij iedere slag die je maakt dat je leeft

Als je geduldig bent
Gebeurt het vanzelf
Als je genieten wil
Wil het dan niet te snel

Het komt allemaal goed
Wacht nou maar af wat de tijd met je doet
Het is nu nog te vroeg
Alles wat groot is begon ooit klein
Je hoeft niet meteen een vlinder te zijn

So strange
It's funny how
We came to meet
Those eyes uncanny
Were my invitation

I couldn't wait
I couldn't wait
To hold you like a baby
Is this what it feels like
You are here now

Oh but I
Can't seem to find our state of grace
Who knows tomorrow may never come
One touch, one look that is all it takes
These things forever change us

This is the sound of a feeling that's caught in my head
Makes me think about something you said
To take away my fears

Why don't you tell me its you babe

live - overcome

Even now, the world is bleedin'.
But feeling just fine, all numb in our castle.
We were always free to choose
Never free enough to find.
I wish something would break, cause we're runnin' out of time.

And I am overcome, I am overcome.
Holy water in my lungs. I am overcome.

This women in the street, pullin' out their hair.
My masters in the yard, givin' light to the unaware
This plastic little place, is just a step amongst the stairs.

And I am overcome, I am overcome babe.
Holy water in my lungs, yeah, I am overcome.

So drive me out, out to that open field.
Turn the ignition off, and spin around.
Your help is here.
But im parked in this open space, blockin' the gates of love.

And I am overcome, yeah, I am overcome babe.
Holy water in my lungs, yeah, I am overcome.
I am overcome, ohoh, i am overcome babe.
Holy water in my lungs, holy water, holy water, holy water.
I am overcome.

Beautiful drowning, this Beautiful drowning, this holy water
This holy water, is in my lungs.
And i am overcome, I am overcome yeah.
And I, and I, and I am overcome. I am overcome babe.
