I Go By Many Names: Can You Say 10? ⛧

I was feeling really down earlier today, so I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone here for all of the song recommendations across all of the music threads. Sometimes, some good tunes are all it takes to make it just one more day. You guys rock. And roll.
And @not-2-b-the-answer, while we're both still on this crazy ride called life, I'll pass you the aux cord any time.

*Sniff* I'm still a lil sad, actually. Alexa: play Despacito.

This song popped into my brain earlier.... :wink::wink::wink:

David Guetta-Love Is Gone :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:








Now that the love is gone
What are we supposed to do?
After all that we've been through
When everything that felt so right is wrong
Now that the love is gone (love is gone)
What are we supposed to do?
After all that we've been through
When everything that felt so right is wrong
Now that the love is gone
There is nothing left to prove
No use to deny this simple truth
Can't find the reason to keep holding on
Now that the love is gone (love is gone)
Now that the love is gone
The love felt so right's so wrong
Now that the love is gone
I feel so hurt inside
Feel so hurt inside
Got to find the reason
What are we supposed to do?
After all that we've been through
When everything that felt so right is wrong
Now that the love is gone? (Now that the love is gone)
There is nothing left to prove
No use to deny this simple truth
Can't find the reason to keep holding on
Now that the love is gone (love is gone)
Got to find a reason
Got to find a reason
Got to find a reason
Got to find a reason
Got to find a reason to hold
Love, there's nothing left for us to say, yeah
Love, why can't we turn and walk away?
What are we supposed to do?
After all that we've been through
When everything that felt so right is wrong
Now that the love is gone?
There is nothing left to prove
No use to deny this simple truth
Can't find the reason to keep holding on
Now that the love is gone (love is gone)
What are we supposed to do?
After all that we've been through
When everything that felt so right is wrong
Now that the love is gone (love is gone)

Rascal Flatts/Kelly Clarkson-I'm Movin On & Original Version :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:

I would like this to be (Among Others) to be played at my funeral. (Even though I don't want one)







Original...





"I'm Moving On"

I've dealt with my ghosts and I've faced all my demons
Finally content with a past I regret
I've found you find strength in your moments of weakness
For once, I'm at peace with myself
I've been burdened with blame
Trapped in the past for too long
I'm movin' on
I've lived in this place and I know all the faces
Each one is different, but they're always the same
They mean me no harm, but it's time that I face it
They'll never allow me to change
But I never dreamed home would end up where I don't belong
I'm movin' on
I'm movin' on
At last I can see (At last I can see)
Life has been patiently waiting for me
And I know
There's no guarantees, but I'm not alone
There comes a time in everyone's life
When all you can see are the years passing by (All the years passing by)
And I have made up my mind that those days are gone
I sold what I could
And packed what I couldn't
Stopped to fill up on my way out of town
I've loved like I should, but lived like I shouldn't
I had to lose everything to find out
Maybe forgiveness will find me somewhere down this road
I'm movin' on
I'm movin' on
I'm movin' on

Bush-Land Of Milk And Honey :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:


.

"The Land Of Milk And Honey"

I wasn't born in a cage
I am free to remain
I feel a darkness I can't resist
On this gasoline sail
I play to win, I still fail
I feel the weight of many hearts
Everyone is to save
I try to sing, I still wail
I stay strong till you pull me under
I stay strong till you pull me under
Feels like
The land of milk and honey
Feels right
We love the taste of money
Feels like
We're somewhere in the middle
Fire does what it wants
Fire does what it wants
I wanna live till I'm born
We need less but I'm torn
I'd like to know where you get your info
This dopamine must be love
Like a hand in a glove
I see stars when I fuck the system
I see stars when I fuck
Feels like
The land of milk and honey
Feels right
We love the taste of money
Feels like
We're somewhere in the middle
Fire does what it wants
Fire does what it wants
I try to get over you
You're in me all the time
I try to get over you
You dominate my mind
Feels like
The land of milk and hone
Feels right
We love the taste of money
Feels like
We're somewhere in the middle
Fire does what it wants
Fire does what it wants
The land of milk and honey
The land, the land
The land of milk and honey
The land of milk and honey

Cradle Of Filth-Demagoguery :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:







Demagoguery
The hissing in the garden
Wishing God's defeat
Stalking the parameters of waiting prey
We come like the break of day
A litany of death about to play
It's fatal hand here
Clawed to the hilt, sordid best beware
Our swords will fill the air
With a morbid poetry born of despair
Under the rule
Black trees scratch red the fleeing sunset
Mist clings tight to Elysian fields
Now we hatch plans ripe for upset
Enflame belfries, time to be revealed

Diabology, no apology
For a world upon her broken knees
Diabology, spreading the disease
Demons freed to spree
And torture by decree of our demagoguery
Nightmare-fuelled, bejewelled in scars
Beneath the frozen stars
Children of the dark, of the craft we are
Deliciously grotesque
Severe puzzle boxes bursting to be solved
Not by any church absolved
Firebrands thirsting to be involved
In their ascent
Thick thorns adorn a twisted halo
For the fools and cruelly vain
As cathedrals soar, our sisters lay low
For the war-cry to roar back again
Diabology, no apology
For a world upon her broken knees
Diabology, spreading the disease
Demons freed to spree
And torture by decree of our demagoguery
What started as a whisper in the shadows of the night
Has sharpened to a painful blister on the weathered heel of life
And now our voices, like a knife, carve out our vicious plan
And set our hooks in the hearts of man
The moon writhes in her orbit
And doused in blood she stirs
The tides to rise and deep inside
Her womb, her daughters pure
Tonight the skies are spiteful
The gates are wearing thin
And through accruing torments shod
Our hated reign begins again
Poisonous, these words of power uttered back
Engage the fatal mechanism and with that
This virus inside us desires to be free
Devotees whipped into a frenzy
Of intoxication in celebration of sin
Enchantment answers and dancers envy
Puppet masters faster pulling the strings
Diabology, no apology
For a world upon her broken knees
Diabology, spreading the disease
Demons freed to spree
And torture by decree of our demagoguery

Offspring-Come Out And Play :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:

From Kimmel last night 😉








You gotta keep 'em separated

Like the latest fashion
Like a spreading disease
The kids are strappin' on their way to the classroom
Getting weapons with the greatest of ease
The gangs stake out their own campus locale
And if they catch you slippin' then it's all over pal
If one guy's colors and the other's don't mix
They're gonna bash it up, bash it up, bash it up, bash it up
Hey, man, you talkin' back to me?
Take him out (you gotta keep 'em separated)
Hey, man, you disrespecting me?
Take him out (you gotta keep 'em separated)
Hey, they don't pay no mind
If you're under 18 you won't be doing any time
Hey, come out and play
By the time you hear the siren
It's already too late
One goes to the morgue and the other to jail
One guy's wasted and the other's a waste
It goes down the same as the thousand before
No one's getting smarter, no one's learning the score
Your never-ending spree of death and violence and hate
Is gonna tie your own rope, tie your own rope, tie your own...
Hey, man, you disrespecting me?
Take him out (you gotta keep 'em separated
Hey, man, you talkin' back to me?
Take him out (you gotta keep 'em separated)
Hey, they don't pay no mind
If you're under 18 you won't be doing any time
Hey, come out and play
It goes down the same as the thousand before
No one's getting smarter, no one's learning the score
Your never-ending spree of death and violence and hate
Is gonna tie your own rope, tie your own rope, tie your own...
Hey, man, you talking back to me?
Take him out (you gotta keep 'em separated)
Hey, man, you disrespecting me?
Take him out (you gotta keep 'em separated)
Hey, they don't pay no mind
If you're under 18 you won't be doing any time
Hey, come out and play

**Die Toten Erwachen**

Wenn hoch vom Himmelsbogen
Der Stern zum Meere sieht,
|: Dann singen alle Wogen
Ein wunderbares Lied. :|

Das ist ein Lied so traurig,
Wie's nie ein Mensch erdacht.
|: Am Felsen rauscht es schaurig
In dunkler Mitternacht. :|

Die Wogen wünschen leise
Die Heimat sich zurück.
|: Sie singen eine Weise
Von längst verlor'nem Glück. :|

Vom Palmenlande klingen
Der Worte viele drein
|: Von Alpengletschern singen
Die Wogen aus dem Rhein.:|

Die Fischer in den Booten
Vernehmen oft den Klang
Wenn tief im Grund die Toten
Erwachen beim Gesang.

Es wachen auf die Leichen,
Wenn so die Welle spricht.
Die nassen Locken streifen
Sie aus dem Angesicht.

Sie fleh'n zum Wogenschaume:
"Oh, uns're Heimat grüß'!"
|: Und lispeln, wie im Träume:
"Wie war das Leben süß!":|


Here is a faithful and poetic English translation of the song **"Die Toten Erwachen"**:

---

**The Dead Awaken**

When high above the heavens
The star gazes down at the sea,
\|: Then all the waves are singing
A song of mystery. :|

It is a song so mournful,
No human ever dreamed.
\|: It murmurs through the cliffsides
Where midnight shadows gleam. :|

The waves, in hushed confession,
Long for their home once more.
\|: They sing a song recalling
A joy that is no more. :|

From palm-fringed lands come echoes,
Their words the waters bear.
\|: And from the Alpine glaciers
The Rhine waves sing their share. :|

The fishers in their vessels
Oft hear the strange refrain,
As deep within the ocean
The dead awake again.

The corpses slowly waken,
Stirred by the wave's lament.
They brush their dripping tresses
From faces pale and spent.

They plead to foaming waters:
"Oh greet our home for us!"
\|: And whisper, dreamlike, softly:
"How sweet life once was…" :|

Dark Divine-Make Me Disappear :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:








Would you quake
At the thought of changing our fate
Just imagine what we could make
Do you pray you'll wake up without the taste
Of all your past mistakes
Are we heading for a brand new nothing
Cause the thought of you still haunts me
I'm so scared that the pain is the price that I pay
When I play your wicked game
If I'm more than my body (more than my body)
And more than my fear (more than my fear)
Then why am I bound to my weakness (oh god)
Make me disappear
Are we heading for a brand new nothing
Cause the thought of you still haunts me
I'm so scared that the pain is the price that I pay
When I play your wicked game
Am I living in vain?
Am I telling a story that I don't believe?
Am I going insane?
Or am living for something that all means nothing?
Blegh
Am I living in vain?
Am I telling a story that I don't believe?
Am I going insane?
Or am living for something that all means nothing?
Am I headed for a brand new nothing?
Are we heading for a brand new nothing
Cause the thought of you still haunts me
I'm so scared that the pain is the price that I pay
When I play
Are we heading for a brand new nothing
Cause the thought of you still haunts me
I'm so scared that the pain is the price that I pay
When I play your wicked game

This probably has been posted before.... Could be by me. 😉😁








Hey-hey-hey
Yeah-ah
Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
Were laid spread out before me, as her body once did
All five horizons revolved around her soul as the Earth to the Sun
Now, the air I tasted and breathe has taken a turn
Mmm, and all I taught her was everything
Mmm-hmm, I know she gave me all that she wore
And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds
Of what was everything
All the pictures had all been washed in black
Tattooed everything
I take a walk outside
I'm surrounded by some kids at play
I can feel their laughter
So, why do I sear?
Mmm, and twisted thoughts that spin 'round my head
I'm spinning, oh-oh, I'm spinning
How quick the Sun can drop away?
And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
Of what was everything
All the pictures have all been washed in black
Tattooed everything
All the love gone bad turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see, all that I am
All I'll be, yeah-yeah
Oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh
I know someday, you'll have a beautiful life
I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky
But why, why, why can't it be
Oh, can't it be mine?
Ooh
Ah, yeah
Ah, ooh-ooh
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

recently discovered lowercase music, it's kind of the opposite of harsh noise music. Instead of blaringly abrasive noises it's instead an minimal, almost extreme quiet genre, it's like on the whole other side of the spectrum. really interesting concept, i really like the kind of hypnotic feel it has

For Pride Month....

Judas Priest-You've Got Another Thing Comin' ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜








Hold life, I'm gonna live it up
I'm takin' flight, I said I'll never get enough
Stand tall, I'm young and kinda proud
I'm on the top as long as the music's loud
If you think I'll sit around as the world goes by
You're thinkin' like a fool 'cause it's a case of "do or die"
Out there is a fortune waitin' to be had
You think I'll let it go? You're mad
You've got another thing comin'
You've got another thing comin'
That's right, here's where the talkin' ends
Well listen, this night there'll be some action spent
Drive hard, I'm callin' all the shots
I got an ace card comin' down on the rocks
If you think I'll sit around while you chip away my brain
Listen, I ain't foolin' and you'd better think again
Out there is a fortune waitin' to be had
You think I'll let it go? You're mad
You got another thing comin'
You got another thing comin'
You got another thing comin'
In this world we're livin' in, we have our share of sorrow
Answer now is don't give in, aim for a new tomorrowOh, so hot, no time to take a rest, yeah
Act tough, ain't room for second best
Real strong, got me some security
Hey, I'm a big smash, I'm goin' for infinity, yeah
If you think I'll sit around as the world goes by
You're thinkin' like a fool 'cause it's a case of "do or die"
Out there is a fortune, waitin' to be had
You think I'll let it go? You're mad
You've got another thing comin'
You got another thing comin'
You got another thing comin'
You've got another thing
Coming for you
You've got another thing comin' (baby, it's a comin' now, oh)
You've got another thing comin' (oh yeah, it's a comin' down)
You've got another thing comin' (oh, yeah)
You've got another thing comin'
(Let's turn around and see us, yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah)
You've got another thing comin'
(It's comin', it's a comin' to you, can you feel it?)
You've got another thing comin' (can you feel it?)
(It's comin' on, it's comin' on top of your soul)
You've got another thing comin' (baby, baby, alright)
You've got another thing comin', baby, you've got another
You've got another thing comin'
You've got another thing comin', oh yeah
You've got another thing comin

My heart goes out to anyone who is struggling or has ever struggled with anorexia or bulimia. I'm sorry that you suffer so. You deserve to be told that you are beautiful regardless of your waistline or curves. You deserve to hear it every day. You deserve to know it, and to believe it with your entire being, because it is true. It is my hope for you that someday, you will believe this in every corner of your mind and that the wicked thoughts and compulsions wither away before they do as much to you.

Forcing yourself to stay hungry is not the path to love or acceptance, nor does it make you deserve affection or attention. You deserve these things the way you are, and the way you will look once you've established a healthy relationship with food.

Hunger does not care for you.
But I do.


[Verse 1]
I wake up early, sometimes at 5:30, to run
My mom got too worried, I had to tell her it was fun

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I feel like a failure if I don't skip breakfast and lunch
I'm chasing a body I know that I'll never outrun

[Chorus]
'Cause I'll always wish I was smaller than this
And I just can't quit pulling at my skin
Oh, I'm scared that I'm never gonna like
How I look, and I wish I knew why
'Cause I'll always wish I was smaller than this

[Verse 2]
I'll set a goal for myself, and I'll try to work hard
I'll reach it, but swear I look just like I did from the start

[Pre-Chorus]
I know that it's not true, but I feel like I'm the only one
Who's chasing a body, I know that I'll never outrun

[Chorus]
'Cause I'll always wish I was smaller than this
And I just can't quit pulling at my skin
Oh, I'm scared that I'm never gonna like
How I look, and I wish I knew why
That I'll always wish I was smaller than this
https://stubhub.prf.hn/click/camref...destination:https://www.stubhub.com/_C-260598

[Bridge]
I was smaller
I was smaller
I was smaller
I wish I was
I was smaller
I was smaller
I was smaller
I wish I was

[Chorus]
I'll always wish I was smaller than this (I was smaller, I was smaller)
And I just can't quit pulling at my skin (I was smaller, I was smaller)
(I was smaller, I was smaller)
Oh, I'm scared that I'm never gonna like
How I look, and I wish I knew why
That I'll always wish I was smaller than this

Another song for Pride (Thanks to Charlie for the recommendation) :heart::heart::heart::heart:

Life Of Agony-Scars ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜





I got the razor at my wrist
'Cause I can't resist
I've got this fever burnin' fist
That does as I wish
But when I get downtown
And see what's around
I just know there's got to be
A better place to be found
Oh, God help me The river runs red and I think I'm dyin'
Well I knew there'd come a day
When my mind would say Hey are you afraid
Well all I know is that I been down here tryin'
Well, I'll bleed on through the night
I suppose I'll be dead by the morning light
No don't be surprised if you mind when you find me Oh, God help me
