Hoe voel je je nu? Uitgedrukt in songteksten [ Deel 31]

Unsure of yourself
You stand divided now
Which hole will lead you there?
Last time
You fell and you fell hard
Your wounds have healed by now
But you still see your scars, yeah
But it's not
The way it used to be right now
You've come so far
To just let this go, my friend
Don't go out the same way

[Chorus:]
You did the last time
You'll break when you fall
Don't make the same mistake
You did all over
You've got to believe in yourself
This time

Live on, live it up today
This life's your cup
So drink it up, I say, yeah
Say it's mine
So give it all up to me now
And walk that line
Don't let this go, my friend
Don't go out the same way

[Chorus]

This time

Life's your cup
Life's your cup
Drink it up

Life's your cup
Life's your cup

[Chorus] [×2]

When the hour is upon us
And our beauty surely gone
No, you will not be forgotten
No, you will not be alone

And when the day has all but ended
And our echo starts to fade
No you will not be alone then
And you will not be afraid
No you will not be afraid

When the fog has finally lifted
From my cold and tired brow
No I will not leave you crying
And I will not let you down
No I will not let you down
I will not let you down

Now comes the night
Feel it fading away
And the soul underneath
Is it all that remains
So jus slide over here
Leave your fear in the fray
Let us hold to each other
Till the end of our days

You light up another cigarette
and I pour the wine
It's four o'clock in the morning
and it's starting to get light
now I'm right where I want to be
losing track of time
but I wish that it was still last night

You look like you're in another world
but I can read your mind
how can you be so far away
lying by my side
when I go away I'll miss you
and I will be thinking of you
every night and day just...

Promise me you'll wait for me
'cause I'll be saving all my love for you
and I will be home soon
Promise me you'll wait for me
I need to know you feel the same way too
and I'll be home, I'll be home soon

When I go away I'll miss you
and I will be thinking of you
every night and day just...

Promise me you'll wait for me
'cause I'll be saving all my love for you
and I will be home soon
Promise me you'll wait for me
I need to know you feel the same way too
and I'll be home, I'll be home
Promise me you'll wait for me
'cause I'll be saving all my love for you
and I will be home soon
Promise me you'll wait for me
I need to know you feel the same way too
and I'll be home, I'll be home soon.

She had something to confess to
But you dont have the time so
Look the other way
You will wait until its over
To reveal what youd never shown her
Too little much too late
Too long trying to resist it
Youve just gone and missed it
Its escaped your world

Can you see that I am needing
Begging for so much more
Than you could ever give
And I dont want you to adore me
Dont want you to ignore me
When it pleases you
And Ill do it on my own

I have played in every toilet
But you still want to spoil it
To prove Ive made a big mistake
Too long trying to resist it
Youve just gone and missed it
Its escaped your world

Can you see that I am needing
Begging for so much more
Than you could ever give
And I dont want you to adore me
Dont want you to ignore me
When it pleases you
And Ill do it on my own
Ill do it on my own

Jezebel wasn't born with a silver spoon in her mouth
She probably had less than every one of us
But when she knew how to walk she knew
how to bring the house down
Can't blame her for her beauty
She wins with her hands down

Jezebel, what a belle
Looks like a princess in her new dress
How did you get that?
Do you really want to know she said
It would seem she's on her way
It's more, more than just a dream
She put on her stockings and shoes
had nothing to lose - she said it was worth it

Reach for the top
and the sun is gonna shine
Every winter was a war she said
I want to get what's mine

Jezebel, Jezebel
won't try to deny where she came from
You can see it in her pride
and the raven in her eyes
Try show her a better way
she'll say you don't know what you've been missing
by the time she blinks you know she won't be listening

Reach for the top she said
the sun is gonna shine
Every winter was a war she said
I want to get what's mine

I want to get what's mine

Do you remember chalk hearts melting on a playground wall
Do you remember dawn escapes from moon washed college halls
Do you remember the cherry blossom in the market square
Do you remember I thought it was confetti in our hair
By the way didn't I break your heart?
Please excuse me, I never meant to break your heart
So sorry, I never meant to break your heart
But you broke mine

Kayleigh is it too late to say I'm sorry?
And Kayleigh could we get it together again?
I just can't go on pretending that it came to a natural end

Kayleigh, oh I never thought I'd miss you
And Kayleigh I thought that we'd always be friends
We said our love would last forever
So how did it come to this bitter end?

Do you remember barefoot on the lawn with shooting stars
Do you remember loving on the floor in Belsize Park
Do you remember dancing in stilettoes in the snow
Do you remember you never understood I had to go
By the way, didn't I break your heart?
Please excuse me, I never meant to break your heart
So sorry, I never meant to break your heart
But you broke mine

Kayleigh I just wanna say I'm sorry
But Kayleigh I'm too scared to pick up the phone
To hear you've found another lover to patch up our broken home

Kayleigh I'm still trying to write that love song
Kayleigh it's more important to me now you're gone
Maybe it will prove that we were right
Or ever prove that I was wrong

The River Of Dreams
River Of Dreams Released: 1993
In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
From the mountains of faith
To a river so deep
I must be looking for something
Something sacred I lost
But the river is wide
And it's too hard to cross

And even though I know the river is wide
I walk down every evening and I stand on the shore
And try to cross to the opposite side
So I can finally find out what I've been looking for

In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the valley of fear
To a river so deep
And I've been searching for something
Taken out of my soul
Something I would never lose
Something somebody stole

I don't know why I go walking at night
But now I'm tired and I don't want to walk anymore
I hope it doesn't take the rest of my life
Until I find what it is that I've been looking for

In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the jungle of doubt
To a river so deep
I know I'm searching for something
Something so undefined
That it can only be seen
By the eyes of the blind
In the middle of the night

I'm not sure about a life after this
God knows I've never been a spiritual man
Baptized by the fire, I wade into the river
That runs to the promised land
In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the desert of truth
To the river so deep
We all end in the ocean
We all start in the streams
We're all carried along
By the river of dreams
In the middle of the night

I want somebody to share
Share the rest of my life
Share my innermost thoughts
Know my intimate details
Someone who will stand by my side
And give me support
And in return
Shell get my support
She will listen to me
When I want to speak
About the world we live in
And life in general
Though my views may be wrong
They may even be perverted
Shell hear me out
And wont easily be converted
To my way of thinking
In fact shell often disagree
But at the end of it all
She will understand me


I want somebody who cares
For me passionately
With every thought and
With every breath
Someone wholl help me see things
In a different light
All the things I detest
I will almost like
I dont want to be tied
To anyones strings
Im carefully trying to steer clear of
Those things
But when Im asleep
I want somebody
Who will put their arms around me
And kiss me tenderly
Though things like this
Make me sick
In a case like this
Ill get away with it

Who's to say
What's impossible
Well they forgot
This world keeps spinning
And with each new day
I can feel a change in everything
And as the surface breaks reflections fade
But in some ways they remain the same
And as my mind begins to spread its wings
There's no stopping curiosity

I want to turn the whole thing upside down
I'll find the things they say just can't be found
I'll share this love I find with everyone
We'll sing and dance to Mother Nature's songs
I don't want this feeling to go away

Who's to say
I can't do everything
Well I can try
And as I roll along I begin to find
Things aren't always just what they seem

I want to turn the whole thing upside down
I'll find the things they say just can't be found
I'll share this love I find with everyone
We'll sing and dance to Mother Nature's songs
This world keeps spinning and there's no time to waste
Well it all keeps spinning spinning round and round and

Upside down
Who's to say what's impossible and can't be found
I don't want this feeling to go away

Please don't go away
Please don't go away
Please don't go away
Is this how it's supposed to be
Is this how it's supposed to be

I've called you so many times today
And I guess it's all true what your girlfriends say
That you don't ever want to see me again
And your brother's gonna kill me and he's six feet ten
I guess you'd call it cowardice
But I'm not prepared to go on like this

I can't, I can't
I can't stand losing
I can't stand losing you

I see you've sent my letters back
And my LP records and they're all scratched
I can't see the point in another day
When nobody listens to a word I say
You can call it lack of confidence
But to carry on living doesn't make no sense

I can't, I can't
I can't stand losing

I guess this is our last goodbye
And you don't care so I won't cry
But you'll be sorry when I'm dead
And all this guilt will be on your head
I guess you'd call it suicide
But I'm too full to swallow my pride

I can't, I can't
I can't stand losing
I can't stand losing you

Pink - Who Knew

You took my hand
You showed me how
You promised me you'd be around
Uh huh
That's right
I took your words
And I believed
In everything
You said to me
Yeah huh
That's right

If someone said three years from now
You'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them up
Cause they're all wrong
I know better
Cause you said forever
And ever
Who knew

Remember when we were such fools
And so convinced and just too cool
Oh no
No no
I wish I could touch you again
I wish I could still call you friend
I'd give anything

When someone said count your blessings now
For they're long gone
I guess I just didn't know how
I was all wrong
They knew better
Still you said forever
And ever
Who knew

Yeah yeah
I'll keep you locked in my head
Until we meet again
Until we
Until we meet again
And I won't forget you my friend
What happened

If someone said three years from now
You'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them out
Cause they're all wrong and
That last kiss
I'll cherish
Until we meet again
And time makes
It harder
I wish I could remember
But I keep
Your memory
You visit me in my sleep
My darling
Who knew
My darling
My darling
Who knew
My darling
I miss you
My darling
Who knew
Who knew

Hello there, the angel from my nightmare
The shadow in the background of the morgue
The unsuspecting victim of darkness in the valley
We can live like Jack and Sally if we want
Where you can always find me
We'll have Halloween on Christmas
And in the night we'll wish this never ends
We'll wish this never ends

(I miss you miss you)
(I miss you miss you)

Where are you and I'm so sorry
I cannot sleep I cannot dream tonight
I need somebody and always
This sick strange darkness
Comes creeping on so haunting every time
And as I stared I counted
Webs from all the spiders
Catching things and eating their insides
Like indecision to call you
and hear your voice of treason
Will you come home and stop this pain tonight
Stop this pain tonight

Don't waste your time on me you're already
The voice inside my head (miss you miss you)
Don't waste your time on me you're already
The voice inside my head (miss you miss you)

Don't waste your time on me you're already
The voice inside my head (I miss you miss you)
Don't waste your time on me you're already
The voice inside my head (I miss you miss you)

Don't waste your time on me you're already
The voice inside my head (I miss you miss you)
Don't waste your time on me you're already
The voice inside my head (I miss you miss you)

Oeh mooi nummertje is dat van Blink 182

Het is goed zolang het duurt
Hele jaren, of een uur
Maar neem wat van jou is
Neem mijn ziel, neem mijn vuur

Het is mooi zover het gaat
Heel de wereld, of de straat
Maar neem wat van jou is
Neem mijn liefde, neem mijn haat

Als je weggaat
Doe dan net alsof we halverwege zijn
Halverwege
Zo ver nog van het eind…

Het blijft warm zolang het brandt
Heel je hart, je verstand
Dus neem wat van jou is
Neem mijn lijf in je hand

Als je weggaat
Doe dan net alsof we halverwege zijn
Halverwege
Zo ver nog van het eind
Wees dan stil
Zeg dan niets tegen de pijn
Halverwege

Geef me het gevoel
Dat ìk terugkan

Als je weggaat
Doe dan net alsof we halverwege zijn
Halverwege
Zo ver nog van het eind
Wees dan stil
Zeg dan niets tegen de pijn
Halverwege

What's another cigarette
When you act so alive but you're already dead
What's another happy pill
If there's nothing in the world that can give you a thrill

Never need anyone
If there's food in the fridge and the laundry's all done
What's another Jaguar
If you have eleven cars driving ain't no fun

It ain't easy to get back
To the real life
To pick up the pieces
And put yourself back in line
No it ain't easy to get back
To the real life
It's nothing like
It's nothing like in Disneyland
There's nothing like it

You want to be a gypsygirl
You are rich, you can travel all around the world
You want to be a heroin
While you're tripping all out on your daily cocaine

Never need anyone
If there's food in the fridge and the living's all set and done
You want to be a rock 'n roll star
But you couldn't find an A on your last guitar

It ain't easy to get back
To the real life
To pick up the pieces
And put yourself back in line
No it ain't easy to get back
To the real life
It's nothing like
It's nothing like in Disneyland

Never need anyone
If there's food in the fridge and the laundry's all done
What's another cigarette
If you do what you can but you're still not dead

It ain't easy to get back
To the real life
To pick up the pieces
And put yourself back in line
No it ain't easy to get back
To the real life
It's nothing like
It's nothing like in Disneyland

It ain't easy to get back
To the real life
To pick up the pieces
And put yourself back in line
No it ain't easy to get back
To the real life
It's nothing like
It's nothing like in Disneyland

Face to Face - I Won't Lie Down

does anybody see him?
another set up for the fall
does anybody hear him?
he's screaming at the same blank wall

everyone can't be right
but everyone will decide

I'm not afraid of the price I pay
I won't lie down as you walk away

I know you must have seen him
I'm sure you must have heard it all
I know you used to be him
did anybody care at all?

Elke trage dag
Een heilig medicijn
Ik ben niet ziek
Ik voel alleen een beetje pijn
Maar elke zwarte nacht
Een beker vol venijn
Ik ben niet ziek
Maar ik had beter kunnen zijn
Twee koude handen op mijn lijf
Niet eens van jou, ze zijn van mij
Twee koude handen op mijn lijf
Ik voel ze branden
Elke trage dag
Een pil tegen de pijn
Ik ben niet ziek
En ik wil het ook niet zijn
Maar elke zwarte nacht
Een giftig medicijn
Ik ben niet ziek
Maar ik had beter moeten zijn
Twee koude handen
Twee koude handen op mijn lijf
Niet eens van jou, ze zijn van mij
Twee koude handen op mijn lijf
Ik voel ze branden

What do I do to ingore them behind me?
Do I follow my instincts blindly?
Do I hide my pride from these bad dreams
And give in to sad thoughts that are maddening?
Do I sit here and try to stand it?
Or do I try to catch them red-handed?
Do I trust some and get fooled by phoniness?
Or do I trust nobody and live in lonliness?
Because I can’t hold on when I’m stretched so thin
I make the right moves but I’m lost within
I put on my daily facade but then
I just end up getting hurt again

By myself
Myself
I ask why
But in my mind I find
I can’t rely on myself
Myself
I ask why
But in my mind I find
I can’t rely on myself

I can’t look around
It’s too much to take in
I can’t hold back
When I’m stretched so thin
I can’t slow down
Watching everything spin
I can’t look back
Starting over again

If I turn my back I’m defenceless
And to go blindly seems senceless
If I hide my pride and let it all go on
Then they’ll take from me ’til everything is gone
If I let them go I’ll be outdone
But if I try to catch them I’ll be outrun
If I’m killed by the questions like a cancer
Then I’ll be buried in the silence of the answer

By myself
Myself
I ask why
But in my mind I find
I can’t rely on myself
Myself
I ask why
But in my mind I find
I can’t rely on myself

I can’t look around
It’s too much to take in
I can’t hold back
When I’m stretched so thin
I can’t slow down
Watching everything spin
I can’t look back
Starting over again

Don’t you know
I can’t tell you how to make it go
No matter what I do, how hard I try
I can’t seem to convince myself why
I’m stuck on the outside

haaaaaaaard meeschreeuwen .. lekker voor de aggressie

I think of awhile ago
We might have had it all
I was so stupid then
You needed time to grow

But now just as things change
As well my feelings do
In time things rearrange
I am so sick of chasing you

But what do I get 'cause I just seem to lose
You make me regret those times I spent with you
And playing those games as I wait for your call
And now I give up, so goodbye and so long

It's not a change of pace
This time I'll get it right
It's not a change of taste
I was the one there last night

You have your other friends
They were there when you cried
Didn't mean to hurt you then
Best friends just won't leave your side

But what do I get 'cause I just seem to lose
You make me regret those times I spent with you
And playing those games as I wait for your call
And now I give up, so goodbye and so long

It's not a change of pace
This time I'll get it right
It's not a change of taste
I was the one there last night

When I needed you most
When I needed a friend
You let me down now
Like I let you down then

So sorry, it's over

It's bugging me
Grating me
And twisting me around
Yeah I'm endlessly
Caving in
And turning inside out

'Cause I want it now
I want it now
Give me your heart and your soul
And I'm breaking out
I'm breaking out
Last chance to lose control

It's holding me, morphing me
And forcing me to strive
To be endlessly cold within
And dreaming I'm alive

'Cause I want it now
I want it now
Give me your heart and your soul
And I'm not breaking down
I'm breaking out
Last chance to lose control

And I want you now
I want you now
I'll feel my heart implode
I'm breaking out
Escaping now
Feeling my faith erode

Marco borsato Alleen

De maan verschijnt
en jij komt op bezoek
bij mijn herinnering

Je zwijgt en lacht
verzacht de pijn voor even
totdat ik weer ontwaak
met niets, alleen

De tijd heeft spijt
dat hij zich heeft vergist
en zelfs de wind huilt van pijn
heeft jou gemist

De maan verdwijnt
laat mij met lege handen
de nacht ze neemt je mee
en laat mij alleen

Beat on the brat
Beat on the brat
Beat on the brat with a baseball bat
Oh yeah, oh yeah, uh-oh.
What can you do?
What can you do?
With a brat like that always on your back
What can you do?

Nog een glas wodka
Iets warms voor mijn hart
Nog een glas wodka
Dan gaan we dansen op de grote markt

Nog een glas wodka
Het wordt helder in m'n hoofd
Nog even en ik zie alles
Waar ik nooit in heb geloofd

Nog een glas wodka
En jij bent de mooiste vrouw
Ik heb nog een glas nodig om te zeggen
Dat ik van je hou

Ik hou van jou, ik hou van jou
Ik weet niet wat ik zeg
Maar ik hou van jou
Ik weet dat ik dit lieg
Dat ik alles mooier zie
Maar ik hou van jou, ik hou van jou

Nog een glas wodka
Je wordt mooier met elk glas
Jij bent een ander dan degene
Die je daarnet nog was

Nog een glas wodka
Olie op het vuur
De mooiste dingen kosten weinig
Liefde is niet duur

Nog een glas wodka
Ik heb iemand nodig
Nog een glas wodka
Wat ik je zeg dat mag je nooit geloven

Ik hou van jou, ik hou van jou...

Nog een glas wodka
Want als ik in de spiegel kijk
Zie ik altijd iemand
Die ik niet wil zijn

Nog een glas wodka
Alle liedjes hebben hetzelfde refrein
Als je wilt zal ik het schreeuwen
Vannacht midden op het plein

Ik hou van jou, ik hou van jou...
