Those are all awesome!!! Keep 'em comin...lol!

Answer 1

All my words are secondhand and
Useless in the face of this
Rationale and rhyme and reason
Pale beside a single kiss
And I've heard so many things I
Fail to understand at all
I'd settle anytime for
Unknown footsteps in the hall outside

Answer 2

"P!nk - "Dear Mr. President"
Album: "I'm Not Dead" (2006)

Dear Mr. President
Come take a walk with me
Let's pretend we're just two people
and you're not better than me
I'd like to ask you some questions
if we can speak honestly

What do you feel when you see
all the homeless on the street
Who do you pray for at night
before you go to sleep
What do you feel
when you look in the mirror
Are you proud?

How do you sleep
while the rest of us cry
How do you dream when a mother
has no chance to say goodbye
How do you walk
with your head held high
Can you even look me in the eye
And tell me why

Dear Mr. President
Were you a lonely boy
Are you a lonely boy
Are you a lonely boy
How can you say
No child is left behind
We're not dumb and we're not blind
They're all sitting in your cells
While you pave the road to hell

What kind of father
would take his own daughter's rights away
And what kind of father
might hate his own daughter if she were gay
I can only imagine
what the first lady has to say
You've come a long way
from whiskey and cocaine

How do you sleep
while the rest of us cry
How do you dream when a mother
has no chance to say goodbye
How do you walk
with your head held high
Can you even look me in the eye

Let me tell you bout hard work
Minimum wage with a baby on the way
Let me tell you bout hard work
Rebuilding your house
after the bombs took them away
Let me tell you bout hard work
Building a bed out of a cardboard box
Let me tell you bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
You don't know nothing bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
Oh

How do you sleep at night
How do you walk
with your head held high
Dear Mr. President
You'd never take a walk with me
Would you?"

This song has awesome depth. Sorry I posted the whole thing...you know, I COULD have posted one quote-and many different posts to complete the whole song...this is a more efficient use of your patience.

Answer 3

(J.Page, R.Plant)

There's a lady who's sure
All that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there she knows
If the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven.

There's a sign on the wall
But she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
In a tree by the brook
There's a songbird who sings,
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it makes me wonder.

There's a feeling I get
When I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts I have seen
Rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who standing looking.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.

And it's whispered that soon
If we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn
For those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter.

If there's a bustle in your hedgerow
Don't be alarmed now,
It's just a spring clean for the May queen.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on.
And it makes me wonder.

Your head is humming and it won't go
In case you don't know,
The piper's calling you to join him,
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow,
And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.

And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How ev'rything still turns to gold.
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.

And she's buying a stairway to heaven.

Answer 4

Both from "Making Love Out Of Nothing At ALL' by Air Supply, written by Jim Steinman

The beating of my heart is a drum
and its lost
and its looking for a rythm like you
You can take the darkness from the pit of the night
and turn it into a beacon burning endlessly bright

Answer 5

I'm Ready
Jack's Mannequin
this is actually a spoken verse but i love it

(I wake up to find it's another
Four aspirin morning, and I dive in
I put on the same clothes I wore yesterday.
When did society decide that we had to change
And wash a tee shirt after every individual use:
If it's not dirty, I'm gonna wear it.
I take the stairs to the car
And there's fog on the windows.
(And I'm Fighting the words...)
I need caffeine in my blood stream,
I take caffeine in the blood stream.
I grip the wheel and all at once I realize:
(And you're getting away...)
My life has become a boring pop song
And everyone's singing along.)


god i love it

Answer 9

And as we all play parts of tomorrow,
some ways will work and other ways we'll play.

You're all I have, in a world that judges long before it sees. You're all I have in a place that only wants to push me down. Now im forsaken. Past the point. They'll bend and break me.
