Inspirational song Lyrics

twinkletoes

I have been really inspired by ....

Search For The Hero ........... M. People

Sometimes the river flows but nothing breathes.
A train arrives but never leaves.
It’s a shame.
Oh life - like love that walks out of the door,
Of being rich or being poor.
Such a shame.
But it’s then, then that faith arrives
To make you feel at least alive.
And that’s why you should keep on aiming high,
Just seek yourself and you will shine.

[chorus]
You’ve go to search for the hero inside yourself,
Search for the secrets you hide.
Search for the hero inside yourself
Until you find the key to your life.

In this life, long and hard though it may seem,
Live it as you’d live a dream.
Aim so high.
Just keep the flame of truth burning bright.
The missing treasure you must find
Because you and only you alone
Can build a bridge across the stream.
Weave your spell in life’s rich tapestry -
Your passport to a feel supreme.

[chorus]

Search inside yourself. (you’ve got to search) [x2]

[chorus] [x2]

You’ve got to.
(search inside yourself) [x3]

Search.

Mine is Green Day: Time of your life (good riddance)

Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
So make the best of this tassel known as why
It's not a question but a lesson learned in time
It's something unpredictable but in the end it's right
I hope you had the time of your life

So take the photographs and still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial
For what it's worth, it was worth all the while
it's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right
I hope you had the time of your life

It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right
I hope you had the time of your life

It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right
I hope you had the time of your life

Has to be Soul Asylum - Runaway Train for me, It really hit home about all the missing kids etc and how desperate some people must be to just walk/runaway without a word. I know the song has other meanings as well but the video with the kids pics on milk cartons stuck in my mind most.

Never feel alone, talk to someone, anyone but do it. (Now REM - You're not alone comes to mind as well).

Soul Asylum

Runaway Train

Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly without a light
You were there like a blowtorch burning
I was a key that could use a little turning

So tired that I couldn't even sleep
So many secrets I couldn't keep
I promised myself I wouldn't weep
One more promise I couldn't keep

It seems no one can help me now,
I'm in too deep; there's no way out
This time I have really led myself astray

Runaway train, never going back
Wrong way on a one-way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there

Can you help me remember how to smile?
Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
How on earth did I get so jaded?
Life's mystery seems so faded

I can go where no one else can go
I know what no one else knows
Here I am just a-drownin' in the rain
With a ticket for a runaway train

And everything seems cut and dried,
Day and night, earth and sky,
Somehow I just don't believe it

Runaway train, never going back
Wrong way on a one-way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there

Bought a ticket for a runaway train
Like a madman laughing at the rain
A little out of touch, a little insane
It's just easier than dealing with the pain

Runaway train, never going back
Wrong way on a one-way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there

Runaway train, never coming back
Runaway train, tearing up the track
Runaway train, burning in my veins
I run away but it always seems the same

Mr Jones by Counting Crows is mine

I was down at the New
Amsterdam, staring at this
yellow-haired girl
Mr. Jones strikes up a
conversation, with this black-
haired, flamenco dancer
She dances while his father
plays guitar
Shes suddenly beautiful,
We all want something
beautiful,
Man I wish I was beautiful

So come dance this silence
down through the morning,
Sha la la la la la la la yeah,
ooh, yeah
Cut up, Maria! Show me some
of them Spanish dances
Pass me a bottle, Mr. Jones
Believe in me
Help me believe in anything
Cause I want to be someone who
believes

Yeah, Mr. Jones and me tell each
other fairy tales
And we stare at the beatiful women
"Shes looking at you. Ah,
no, no, shes looking at me."
Smiling in the bright lights
Coming through in stereo
When everybody loves you
you can never be lonely

I will paint my picture
Paint myself in blue and red
and black and gray
All of the beautiful colors are
very very meaningful
Gray is my favorite color
I felt so symbolic yesterday
If I knew Picasso
I would buy myself a gray
guitar and play

Mr. Jones and me look into the
future
Stare at the beautiful women
"Shes looking at you.
Uh, I dont think so. Shes
looking at me."
Standing in the spotlight
I bought myself a gray guitar
When everybody loves me, I will
never be lonely..I will never be lonely
Said I'm never gonna be lonely

I want to be a lion
Everybody wants to pass as cats
We all want to be big big
stars, but we got different
reasons for that
Believe in me because I dont
believe in anything
and I want to be someone to
believe, to believe, to believe,
Yeah

Mr. Jones and me stumbling
through the barrio
Yeah we stare at the beautiful
women
"Shes perfect for you, Man,
theres got to be somebody for
me."
I want to be Bob Dylan
Mr. Jones wishes he was
someone just a little more funky
When everybody loves you,
son, thats just about as funky
as you can be

Mr. Jones and me staring at
the video
When I look at the television, I
I want to see me staring right
back at me
We all want to be big stars,
but we dont know why and we dont know how
But when everybody loves me,
Im going to be just about as
happy as I can be
Mr. Jones and me, were gonna
be big stars ....

oh yes!!!

The Darkness- I believe in a thing called love
Can't explain all the feelings that your making me feel
My hearts in overdrive and your behind the steering wheel

Touching you, touching me
Touching you god your touching me

I believe in a thing called love
Just listen to the rhythm of my heart
There's a chance we could make it now
We'll be rocking till the sun goes down
I believe in a thing called love
Ooh! Uh!

I wanna kiss you every minute, every hour, every day
You got me in a spin but everything is A.O.K.

Touching you, touching me
Touching you god your touching me

I believe in a thing called love
Just listen to the rhythm of my heart
There's a chance we could make it now
We'll be rocking till the sun goes down
I believe in a thing called love
Ooh!

Touching you, touching me
Touching you god your touchng me
Aah!

I believe in a thing called love
Just listen to the rhythm of my heart
There's a chance we could make it now
We'll be rocking till the sun goes down
I believe in a thing called love
Aah!

Another one of mine would be....

Muse - Time is running out - this is because i listened to this album when I was going through a tough time a while ago and it meant so much to me.

I think I'm drowning
asphyxiating
I wanna break the spell
that you've created

you're something beautiful
a contradiction
I wanna play the game
I want the friction

you will be
the death of me
yeah, you will be
the death of me

bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

our time is running out
and our time is running out
you can't push it underground
we can't stop it screaming out

I wanted freedom
but I'm restricted
I tried to give you up
but I'm addicted

now that you know I'm trapped
sense of elation
you'll never dream of breaking this fixation
you will squeeze the life out of me

bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

our time is running out
and our time is running out
you can't push it underground
we can't stop it screaming out
how did it come to this

you will suck the life out of me

bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

our time is running out
and our time is running out
you can't push it underground
we can't stop it screaming out

how did it come to this

Buterfiles and Hurricanes - Muse

Change everything you are
And everything you were
Your number has been called
Fights and battles have begun
Revenge will surely come
Your hard times are ahead

Best, you've got to be the best
You've got to change the world
And use this chance to be heard
Your time is now

Change everything you are
And everything you were
Your number has been called
Fights and battles have begun
Revenge will surely come
Your hard times are ahead

Best, you've got to be the best
You've got to change the world
And use this chance to be heard
Your time is now

Don't let yourself down
And don't let yourself go
Your last chance has arrived

Best, you've got to be the best
You've got to change the world
And use this chance to be heard
Your time is now

David Bowie- space oddity!
Ground control to major tom
Ground control to major tom
Take your protein pills and put your helmet on

Ground control to major tom
Commencing countdown, engines on
Check ignition and may god’s love be with you

Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five,
Four, three, two, one, liftoff

This is ground control to major tom
You’ve really made the grade
And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear
Now it’s time to leave the capsule if you dare

"this is major tom to ground control
I’m stepping through the door
And I’m floating in a most peculiar way
And the stars look very different today

For here
Am I sitting in a tin can
Far above the world
Planet earth is blue
And there’s nothing I can do

Though I’m past one hundred thousand miles
I’m feeling very still
And I think my spaceship knows which way to go
Tell me wife I love her very much she knows"

Ground control to major tom
Your circuit’s dead, there’s something wrong
Can you hear me, major tom?
Can you hear me, major tom?
Can you hear me, major tom?
Can you....

"here am I floating round my tin can
Far above the moon
Planet earth is blue
And there’s nothing I can do."
