Question

I fell down on the crossbar
and the pain was enough
to make a shy bald buddhist reflect
and plan a mass murder

I know that you know that we know they don't know whats going on
SFA , Demons

Don't criticise what you can't understand

Answer 1

But sometimes this opposition, comes rising up in me
This terrible imposition, comes blacking through my mind
~ Johnny Cash, I See A Darkness

I stand on the stairway
My back to the dungeon
The doorway to freedom
So close to my hand
~ Kris Kristofferson, Burden of Freedom

Learning every bridge you cross, is burning down before you're off and
running
Like the devil just in time

He keeps talking about tomorrow
While I keep struggling with today
He preaches hellfire and brimstone
And heaven seems so far away

Answer 2

Oh, where to start?

Comfortably Numb - Pink Floyd

There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ships smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I cant hear what youre sayin.
When I was a child I had a fever.
My hands felt just like two balloons.
Now I got that feeling once again.
I cant explain, you would not understand.
This is not how I am.
I have become comfortably numb

Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd

So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found? The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

Soulshine - Gov't Mule

I grew up thinkin that I had it made,
Gonna make it on my own.
Life can take the strongest man,
Make him feel so alone.
Now and then I feel a cold wind,
Blowin through my achin bones,
I think back to what my daddy said,
He said boy, in the darkness before the dawn:

[chorus]
Let your soul shine,
Its better than sunshine,
Its better than moonshine,
Damn sure better than rain.
Yeah now people dont mind,
We all get this way sometimes,
Gotta let your soul shine, shine till the break of day

And there's a line in a Gov't Mule song called "Banks of The Deep End" that I just love...

I see the worlds still spinning round, makes me dizzy when I look.

"My song can but borrow your grace"
- Everdream, by Nightwish

"When you say it's going to happen now
When exactly do you mean?
See, I've already waited too long
And all my hope is... gone."
- How Soon Is Now, by The Smiths

"Another broken day passed by
Another dead night is waiting to come alive
You are already trying to find
One more way to hide from the burning light"
-Broken Days, by For My Pain...

"You have an angel on your shoulder
but you wear the old god's horns.
And you dance around the maypole
while the vicar makes a toast
to the pagan celebration
and extends an invitation to us all
so he can save us when we fall."
- Left Right, by Jethro Tull

There are loads more. Morrissey, Bowie, Ian Anderson... loads and loads more.

Answer 4

So, so you think you can tell heavean from hell
Blue skies from pain
Can you tell a green field from a coal steel rail
A smile from a veil
Do you think you can tell

And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts
Hot ashes for trees
Hot air for cool breeze
Cold comfort for change
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead-role in a cage

How I wish How I wish you were were here
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl year after year
Running over the same old ground what have found
The same old fears wish you here here

Wish you were here - Pink Floyd

Answer 6

So, is that what you call a getaway?
Tell me what you got away with.
Cause I've seen more spine in jellyfish.
I've seen more guts in eleven-year-old kids.
Have another drink and drive yourself home.
I hope there's ice on all the roads.
And you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt,
and again when your head goes through the windshield.

And is that what you call tact?
You're as subtle as a brick in the small of my back.
So let's end this call, and end this conversation.
and is that what you call a getaway?
well tell me what you got away with.
cause you left the frays from the ties you severed
when you say best friends means friends forever

Seventy Times 7-Brand New

Answer 7

"Oh how wrong we were to think
That immortality meant never dying"

Our Ladie Of Sorrows

and....

Late dawns and early sunsets, just like my favorite scenes
Then holding hands and life was perfect, just like up on the screen
And the whole time while always giving
Counting your face among the living

Up and down escalators, pennies and colder fountains
Elevators and half price sales, trapped in by all these mountains
Running away and hiding with you
I never thought they'd get me here
Not knowing you'd change from just one bite
I fought them all off just to hold you close and tight

But does anyone notice?
But does anyone care?
And if I had the guts to put this to your head...
But would anything matter if you're already dead?
And well should I be shocked now by the last thing you said?
Before I pull this trigger,
Your eyes vacant and stained...

But does anyone notice?
But does anyone care?
And if I had the guts to put this to your head...
And would anything matter if you're already dead?
And now should I be shocked by the last thing you said?
Before I pull this trigger,
Your eyes vacant and stained...
And in saying you loved me,
Made things harder at best,
And these words changing nothing
As your body remains,
And there's no room in this hell,
There's no room in the next,
And our memories defeat us,
And I'll end this direst.

There's no room in the next,
But does anyone notice there's a corpse in this bed?

Come and whisper in my ear,
'your very pretty dear' and

Your lying!

Gentlemen - mewithoutYou

What's left inside him?
Don't he remember us?
Can't he believe me?
We seemed like brothers
Talked for hours last month
About what we wanna be
I sit now with his hand in mine
But I know he can't feel..
Hollow - Pantera

What have I become,
My sweetest friend?
Everyone I know, goes away
In the end.
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
Hurt - Nine Inch Nails

Well yep thats it.
