some song lyrics (maybe triggering)
Hi guys

Here's an other one. It's rather a calm one now, but still I really like it. It's from an artist I just discovered. I hope you'll like it.

Mogwai: "Hound of Winter"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4oA7MQPALI

"Hound of Winter"

Where did it go?
I don't know

Where is it now?
Where is it now?

Time hides things
Lies hide things
I hide things
I lose things

Where did it go?
I don't know

Where has it gone?
Where has it gone?

Time hides things
Lies hide things
I lose things
I break things

I forget

I fall away

I'm tired...

I'm tired...
 
Linkin Park: "Runaway"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzMviyvci7I

"Runaway"

Graffiti decorations
Under a sky of dust
A constant wave of tension
On top of broken trust
The lessons that you taught me
I learn were never true
Now I find myself in question
(They point the finger at me again)
Guilty by association
(You point the finger at me again)

I wanna run away
Never say goodbye
I wanna know the truth
Instead of wondering why
I wanna know the answers
No more lies
I wanna shut the door
And open up my mind

Paper bags and angry voices
Under a sky of dust
Another wave of tension
Has more than filled me up
All my talk of taking action
These words were never true
Now I find myself in question
(They point the finger at me again)
Guilty by association
(You point the finger at me again)

I wanna run away
Never say goodbye
I wanna know the truth
Instead of wondering why
I wanna know the answers
No more lies
I wanna shut the door
And open up my mind

i'm gonna run away and never say goodbye
(gonna run away gonna run away gonna run away gonna run away)
i'm gonna run away and never wonder why
(gonna run away gonna run away gonna run away gonna run away)
i'm gonna run away and open up my mind
(gonna run away gonna run away gonna run away gonna run away gonna run away gonna run away gonna run away gonna run away)

I wanna run away
Never say goodbye
I wanna know the truth
Instead of wondering why
I wanna know the answers
No more lies
I wanna shut the door
And open up my mind

i wanna run away
and open up my mind
i wanna run away
and open up my mind
i wanna run away
and open up my mind
i wanna run away
and open up my mind

Linkin Park: "By Myself"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AP_L61-Dls4

"By Myself"

What do I do to ignore 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 loneliness?
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]

[x2]
I ask why, but in my mind
I find I cant rely on myself

[Chorus:]
I cant hold on
To what I want when Im stretched so thin
Its all too much to take in
I cant hold on
To anything watching everything spin
With thoughts of failure sinking in

If I
Turn my back Im defenseless
And to go blindly seems senseless
If I hide my pride and let it all go on then theyll
Take from me till everything is gone
If I let them go Ill be outdone
But if I try to catch them Ill be outrun
If Im killed by the questions like a cancer
Then Ill be buried in the silence of the answer
by myself [myself]

[x2]
I ask why, but in my mind
I find I cant rely on myself

[Chorus]

How do you think Ive lost so much
I'm so afraid that I'm out of touch
How do you expect... I will know what to do
When all I know Is what you tell me to

[x2]
Dont you know
I cant tell you how to make it go
No matter what I do, how hard I try
I cant seem to convince myself why
Im stuck on the outside

[Chorus x2]
 
Linkin Park: "Leave out all the rest"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBTXNPZPfbE

"Leave out all the rest"

I dreamed I was missing
You were so scared
But no one would listen
'Cause no one else cared

After my dreaming
I woke with this fear
What am I leaving
When I'm done here?

So if you're asking me
I want you to know

[Chorus]
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
And don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Don't be afraid
I've taken my beating
I've shared what I've made
I'm strong on the surface
Not all the way through
I've never been perfect
But neither have you

So if you're asking me
I want you to know

[Chorus]
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
Don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Forgetting all the hurt inside
You've learned to hide so well
Pretending someone else can come
And save me from myself
I can't be who you are

[Chorus]
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
Don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Forgetting all the hurt inside
You've learned to hide so well
Pretending someone else can come
And save me from myself
I can't be who you are
I can't be who you are
 
Linkin Park: "From The Inside"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YLHpvjrFpe0

"From The Inside"

I dont know who to trust no surprise
(Everyone feels so far away from me)
Heavy thoughts sift through dust and the lies
(Trying not to break but Im so tired of this deceit)
(Every time I try to make myself get back up on my feet)
(All I ever think about is this)
(All the tiring time between)
(And how trying to put my trust in you just takes so much out of me)

[Chorus]
Take everything from the inside and throw it all away
Cuz I swear for the last time I wont trust myself with you

Tension is building inside steadily
(Everyone feels so far away from me)
Heavy thoughts forcing their way out of me
(Trying not to break but Im so tired of this deceit)
(Every time I try to make myself get back up on my feet)
(All I ever think about is this)
(All the tiring time between)
(And how trying to put my trust in you just takes so much out of me)

[Chorus]
Take everything from the inside and throw it all away
Cuz I swear for the last time I wont trust myself with you

I wont waste myself on you
You
You
Waste myself on you
You
You

Ill take everything from the inside and throw it all away
Cuz I swear for the last time I wont trust myself with you

Everything from the inside and just throw it all away
Cuz I swear for the last time I wont trust myself with you
You
You
 
Easier to run by LP is my favourite :) but Leave out all the rest is right behind.
 
This is a song called "I Know" by a singer-songwriter named Jude. This song has helped me through many different struggles and I thought this would be a good place to share it.

Jude - "I Know"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3bRxwHzIxA

You've got such a pretty smile
It's a shame the things you hide behind it
Let 'em go
Give it up for a while
Let 'em free and we will both go find it

I know there's nowhere you can hide it
I know the feeling of alone
I know that you do not feel invited
But, come back, come back in from the cold

Step away then from the edge
Your best friend in life is not your mirror
Back away, come
Back away, come
Back away, come
Back away, come
Back away, come
Back away...
I am here and I will be forever and ever and I ...

I know that there's nowhere you can hide it
I know the feeling of alone
Trust me and don't keep that on the inside
Soon you'll be locked out on your own

You're not alone
You're not alone

And don't say you've never been told
I'll be with you 'til we grow old
'Til I'm in the ground and I'm cold
I'm not sitting up here on some throne
I'll be with you 'til we grow up young
Like a dog you can always come home
Dig up a bone
Look around Down baby downtown
Don't throw me to the pound..
 
Hi Rycardo

Thx for such a nice lyric/song, I understand why it's so helpful through the many difficult struggles on the path of healing.

Here's another one from
Coldplay: "Us Against The World"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OUL23uBFlw&feature=fvwrel

"Us Against The World"

Oh morning come bursting the clouds, Amen.
Lift off this blindfold, let me see again.
And bring back the water, let your ships roll in, in my heart, she left a hole.

The tightrope that I'm walking just sways and ties.
The devil, as he's talking, with those angel's eyes.
And I just wanna be there when the lightning strikes.
And the saints go marching in

And sing slow it down,
Through chaos as it swirls,
It's us against the world.

Like a river to a raindrop,
I lost a friend.
My drunken has a Daniel in a lion's den.
And tonight I know it all has to begin again,
So whatever you do,
Don't let go.

And if we could float away,
Fly up to the surface and just start again.
And lift off before trouble just erodes us in the rain
Just erodes us in the rain
Just erodes us and see roses in the rain

Sing slow it down
Slow it down

Through chaos as it swirls,
It's us against the world.
Through chaos as it swirls,
It's us against the world
 
Hayley Westenra: "Listen to the Wind"
(soundtrack from the movie "The New World")
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6nq-X70DRrA

"Listen To The Wind"

Time is a river that flows endlessly
And a life is a whisper, a kiss in a dream

Shadows dance behind the firelight
And all the spirits of the night remind us:
We are not alone

Tomorrow: a sun soon rising
And yesterday is there beside us
And it's never far away

If you listen to the wind you can hear me again
Even when I'm gone you can still hear the song
High up in the trees as it moves through the leaves
Listen to the wind, there's no end to my...

Love is forever a circle unbroken
The seasons keep changing; it always remains

Spring will melt the snows of winter
And the summer gives us days of light
So long till autumn makes them fade

Remember the sound of laughter
We ran together through the meadows
Still we thought our hearts could break

If you listen to the wind, you can hear me again
Even when I'm gone you can still hear the song
High up in the trees as it moves through the leaves
Listen to the wind and I'll send you my love

Listen to the wind where the sky meets the land
I'm not really gone I've been here all along
High up in the trees in the sound of the leaves
Listen to the wind there's no end to my...

Time is a river that flows to the sea
And a life is a whisper, a kiss in a dream
 
What's wrong dear brother, have you lost your faith
Don't you remember a better place
Needles and things have done you in

Like the setting sun
Oh, dear brother, trouble weighs a ton

What's wrong dear sister, did your world fall down
Did men misuse you and push you around
It's the same story dear, year after year

Pathetic men run
Oh, dear sister, trouble weighs a ton

Trouble in the air, trouble's all I see
Does anybody care, trouble's killing me
Oh, it's killing me...

What's wrong dear mother, has your child disobeyed
And left you hurting in so many ways
What once was sweet, is sorrow and grief

That cannot be undone
Oh, dear mother, trouble weighs a ton

thx George for this nice song/lyric, here's another one from me:

Enya: "Evening Falls..."
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCfmBumHNSQ

"Evening Falls"

When the evening falls
and the daylight is fading
From within me calls
Could it be I am sleeping?
For a moment I stray
then it holds me completely
Close to home, I cannot say
Close to home, feeling so far away

As I walk the room
there before me a shadow
From another world
where no other can follow
Carry me to my own
To where I can cross over...
Close to home, I cannot say
Close to home, feeling so far away

Forever searching, never right
I am lost in oceans of night
Forever hoping I can find memories
Those memories I left behind

Even though I leave
will I go on believing
that this time is real
- am I lost in this feeling?
Like a child passing through
Never knowing the reason
I am home, I know the way
I am home, feeling oh, so far away
 
It's been a while, here's a new one, I guess you will know it all.

Metallica: "Nothing Else Matters"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bAsA00-5KoI

"Nothing Else Matters"

So close no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters

Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
And nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know

So close no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know

Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
And nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they say
Never cared for games they play
Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
And I know

So close no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
No nothing else matters
 
3 Doors Down: "There's a Life"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQaJF_xIoWg

"There's a Life"

When the days all seem to count for nothing
Is the hope that I hold onto now gonna count for something?
When the nights all feel like they're running together
That's when I keep on dreaming about things getting better forever
All the days that come and go
Across the miles so far from home
All I find: roads that ramble on and on and on

Chorus
There's a life, there's a life that I'm missin
So much more than I can see
There's a life, there's a life that I'm chasin
That always stays one step ahead of me

Out of reach but I know that I'm gettin closer
I believe that as long as I breathe that the dream's never over
Inside myself I try to find a way to keep this hope alive
I hold the line that keeps me haning on and on and on

Chorus

There's a life, there's a life
There's a life, there's a life I see
There's a life, there's a life
There's a life, there's a life for me

Chorus

Evanescence: "Secret Door"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IpUIGf_Z13o

"Secret Door"

Turn out the lights
Feed the fire
'Til my soul breathes free
My heart is high
As the waves above me

Don't need to understand
Too lost to lose
Don't fight my tears
'Cause they feel so good

And I, I will remember how to fly
Unlock the heavens in my mind
Follow my love back
Through the same secret door

Look past the end
It's a dream
As it's always been
All life lives on
If we've ever loved it

And I, I will remember how to fly
Unlock the heavens in my mind
Follow my love back
Through the same secret door

I, I will remember how to fly
Unlock the heavens in my mind
Follow my love back
Through the same secret door

Krezip: "Won't cry"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRCIK3Tm_CU

"Won't Cry"

You hoped that if you'd forget your memories
That they'd forget you too
You'd put a bandage on your aching spot
And that will make you feel good
I think someone should have told you that
This ain't the way it works
And that you have to work it out some day
You will, yeah

It takes you further everytime
It will make you sweat like hell
You just can't keep gnashing your teeth forever

Won't cry, why wouldn't you
No, won't let them get to you
Won't cry
And if anyone will try to tell you that
This ain't, no no
This ain't, no
It ain't the way it works
They're wrong, they're wrong, so wrong

Well you've done enough to prove us all
Won't let them get you down
But now i think the moment's here
To show yourself your weaknesses
I see you figured out by now
This ain't the way that things go
And the time has come to work it out
You will, yeah

It takes you further everytime
It will make you sweat like hell
You just can't keep gnashing your teeth forever

Won't cry, why wouldn't you
No, won't let them get to you
Won't cry
And if anyone will try to tell you that
This ain't, no no
This ain't, no
It ain't the way it works
They're wrong, they're wrong, so wrong (no, no, no, no)

You won't cry, won't cry, i know
You won't cry, won't cry, won't let them get to you
Won't cry, won't cry, ooh no
You won't cry, yeah

You won't cry, why wouldn't you
No, won't let them get to you
Won't cry
And if anyone will try to tell you that
This ain't, no no
This ain't, no
This ain't the way it works
They're wrong, they're wrong, so wrong (no, no, no, no)
 
It's been a while since I posted a 'new' song. So here's another one I like. Although the text can trigger, I really like the following part of the song:
"The world we knew
Won't come back
The time we've lost
Can't get back
The life we had
Won't be ours again

This world will never be
What I expected
And if I don't belong"

Three Days Grace: "Never Too Late"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qOvNgEsZ9s

"Never Too Late"

This world will never be
What I expected
And if I don't belong
Who would have guessed it
I will not leave alone
Everything that I own
To make you feel like it's not too late
It's never too late

Even if I say
It'll be alright
Still I hear you say
You want to end your life
Now and again we try
To just stay alive
Maybe we'll turn it all around
'Cause it's not too late
It's never too late

No one will ever see
This side reflected
And if there's something wrong
Who would have guessed it
And I have left alone
Everything that I own
To make you feel like
It's not too late
It's never too late

Even if I say
It'll be alright
Still I hear you say
You want to end your life
Now and again we try
To just stay alive
Maybe we'll turn it all around
'Cause it's not too late
It's never too late

The world we knew
Won't come back
The time we've lost
Can't get back
The life we had
Won't be ours again

This world will never be
What I expected
And if I don't belong

Even if I say
It'll be alright
Still I hear you say
You want to end your life
Now and again we try
To just stay alive
Maybe we'll turn it all around
'Cause it's not too late
It's never too late
Maybe we'll turn it all around
'Cause it's not too late
It's never too late (It's never too late)
It's not too late
It's never too late
 
And an other song, which really reflects the strength we all possess once we know we don't have to hide at all.

Three Days Grace: "Riot"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RtjUc5GXY3E

"Riot"

If you feel so empty
So used up, so let down
If you feel so angry
So ripped off so stepped on
You're not the only one
Refusing to back down
You're not the only one
So get up

Let's start a riot, a riot
Let's start a riot
Let's start a riot, a riot
Let's start a riot

If you feel so filthy
So dirty so fucked up
If you feel so walked on
So painful so pissed off
You're not the only one
Refusing to go down
You're not the only one
So get up

Let's start a riot, a riot
Let's start a riot
Let's start a riot, a riot
Let's start a riot

If you feel so empty
So used up, so let down
If you feel so angry
Just get up

Let's start a riot, a riot
Let's start a riot
Let's start a riot, a riot
Let's start a riot
 
30 Seconds To Mars: A Beautiful Lie
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Kvd-uquuhI

"A Beautiful Lie"

Lie awake in bed at night
And think about your life
Do you want to be different?
Try to let go of the truth
The battles of your youth
'Cause this is just a game

[Chorus:]
It's a beautiful lie
It's the perfect denial
Such a beautiful lie to believe in
So beautiful, beautiful it makes me

It's time to forget about the past
To wash away what happened last
Hide behind an empty face
Don't ask too much, just say
'Cause this is just a game

[Chorus]

(Oh Oh
The end of the world)

Everyone's looking at me
I'm running around in circles, baby
A quiet desperation's building higher
I've got to remember this is just a game

(So beautiful, beautiful
It's a beautiful lie
So beautiful, beautiful
It's a beautiful lie
So beautiful, beautiful...)

[Chorus]
