Express Your Feelings Through Music

[writerfreak]

The race is on and
Here comes pride in the backstretch
Heartache is going to the inside
My tears are holding back and
They're trying not to fall
My hearts out of the running
True loves scratched for another's sake
The race is on and it looks like heartaches
And the winner loses all.

This is perfect! I just finished a 30 page term paper on Heteronormative Society’s Expectations of Weight and Masculinity/Femininity and the Effects on Sexual Orientation Minorities - boring sounding, i know... but I wrote the stuff about gender expression binary last because i kept thinking of more to add about buth/femm identity, etc. I finished the section and set it aside so i could proof-read it later and checked out my favorite drag queens to see if they posted more music. They did!

God Bless Ye Femmy Lesbians (sung to the tune of god rest ye merry gentlemen) by The Kinsey Sicks:

God bless ye femmy lesbians, may good taste you display.
You don't give up your fashion choices just because you're gay.
With baggy pants, and baseball caps, and shirts in disaray.
There's something inbetween a bimbo toy (ala Playboy)
and dressing up just like a 12 year-old boy.

Then gay men with shaped bodies and their moisturisers came,
Bedecked in youthful shirts that bear the Abercrombie name
They hit the gym in butch attire to banish all the shame
That they felt deep-downwhen they were 12 year-old boys (with too much poise)
So now they want to look like 12 year-old boys

"I do not look like that," you think, "it isn't right" you say
But if it isn't true of you, your partner looks that way
Seems men and women share 1 thing in common when they're gay
We all seem to look like 12 year-old boys,
Or we use poise, to attract the folks that look like 12 year-old boys

Hey, don't write yourself off yet
It's only in your head you feel left out or
looked down on.
Just try your best, try everything you can.
And don't you worry what they tell themselves when you're away.
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything (everything) will be just fine, everything (everything) will be
alright (alright).
Hey, you know they're all the same.
You know you're doing better on your own, so don't buy in.
Live right now.
Yeah, just be yourself.
It doesn't matter if it's good enough for someone else.
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything (everything) will be just fine, everything (everything) will be
alright (alright).
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything (everything) will be just fine, everything (everything) will be
alright (alright).
Hey, don't write yourself off yet.
It's only in your head you feel left out or
looked down on.
Just do your best, do everything you can.
And don't you worry what the bitter hearts are gonna say.
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything (everything) will be just fine, everything (everything) will be
alright (alright).
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything (everything) will be just fine, everything (everything) will be
alright (alright)

[littlewicca]

Audioslave- Be youself

Someone falls to pieces, sleeping all alone and someone kills the pain
Spinning in the silence, it finally drifts away
someone gets excited in a chapel yard and catches a bouquet
another lays a dozen white roses on a grave

And to be yourself is all that you can do
to be yourself is all that you can do

Someone finds salvation in everyone, another only pain
someone tries to hide himself, down inside himself he prays
someone swears its true love until the end of time, another runs away
separate or united, healthy or insane

And to be yourself is all that you can do
to be yourself is all that you can do
to be yourself is all that you can do
to be yourself is all that you can do

And even when you’ve paid enough, been pulled apart or been held up
Because every single memory of the good or bad faces of luck
don’t lose any sleep tonight
I'm sure everything will end up alright

you may win or lose
But to be yourself is all that you can do
to be yourself is all that you can do

revolution

You say you want a revolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
You tell me that it's evolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
But when you talk about destruction
Don't you know that you can count me out
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
all right, all right

You say you got a real solution
Well, you know
We'd all love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution
Well, you know
We're doing what we can
But when you want money
for people with minds that hate
All I can tell is brother you have to wait
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
all right, all right

[writerfreak]

In the sunlight or the rain
Brightest nights or darkest days
I'll always feel the same way
Whatever road you may be on
Know you're never too far gone
My love is there
Wherever you may be
Just remember
That you'll always be my baby.

[JujuDeRoussie]

Nager dans les eaux troubles
Des lendemains
Attendre ici la fin
Flotter dans l'air trop lourd
Du presque rien
A qui tendre la main

Si je dois tomber de haut
Que ma chute soit lente
Je n'ai trouvé de repos
Que dans l'indifférence
Pourtant, je voudrais retrouver l'innocence
Mais rien n'a de sens, et rien ne va

Tout est chaos
A côté
Tous mes idéaux : des mots Abimés...
Je cherche une âme, qui
Pourra m'aider
Je suis
D'une géneration désenchantée, désenchantée

Qui pourrait m'empêcher
De tout entendre
Quand la raison s'effondre
A quel sein se vouer
Qui peut prétendre
Nous bercer dans son ventre

Si la mort est un mystère
La vie n'a rien de tendre
Si le ciel a un enfer
Le ciel peut bien m'attendre
Dis moi,
Dans ces vents contraires comment s'y prendre
Plus rien n'a de sens, plus rien ne va.



Désenchantée, Mylène Farmer (music by Laurent Boutonnat), 1991, L'Autre

Take in my heart your place again between your lake and sea
Like crimson roses in grey walls your memories to me

O. St. J. Gogarty/T. Small - 'Galway'

[kisstheviolets]

And if there is a way to find you
I will find you
But will you find me if Neil makes me a tree
An afro, a pharaoh
I can't go, you said so
And threads that are golden don't break easily

Wish You Were Here
Me, oh, my country man
Wish You Were Here
I Wish You Were Here
Don't you know, the snow is getting colder
And I miss you like hell
And I'm feeling blue

I've got feelings for you
Do you still feel the same?
From the first time I laid my eyes on you
I felt joy of living
I saw heaven in your eyes
In yor eyes

Wish You Were Here
Me, oh, my country man
Wish You Were Here
I Wish You Were Here
Don't you know, the snow is getting colder
And I miss you like hell
And I'm feeling blue

I miss your laugh, I miss your smile
I miss everything about you
Every second's like a minute
Every minute's like a day
When you're far away

The snow is getting colder, baby
I Wish You Were Here
A battlefield of love and fear
And I Wish You Were Here

I've got feelings for you
From the first time I laid my eyes on you

Wish You Were Here
Me, oh, my country man
Wish You Were Here
I Wish You Were Here
Don't you know, the snow is getting colder
And I miss you like hell
And I'm feeling blue

(Wish you were here)
Wish you were here
Wish you were here
(Wish you were here)
I wish you were here

I usually go for the angsty angry music... but my mood definately calls for Hank Williams' Cheating Heart

Your cheatin' heart will make you weep
You'll cry and cry and try to sleep
But sleep won't come the whole night through
Your cheatin' heart will tell on you

When tears come down like fallin' rain
You'll toss around and call my name
You'll walk the floor the way I do
Your cheatin' heart will tell on you

Your cheatin' heart will pine some day
And crave the love you threw away
The ti-ime will come when you'll be blue
Your cheatin' heart will tell on you

When tears come down like fallin' rain
You'll toss around and call my name
You'll walk the floor the way I do
Your cheatin' heart will tell on you

[jay/wt4evr]

In my hands
A legacy of memories
I can hear you say my name
I can almost see your smile
Feel the warmth of your embrace
But there is nothing but silence now
Around the one I loved
Is this our farewell?

Sweet darling you worry too much, my child
See the sadness in your eyes
You are not alone in life
Although you might think that you are

Never thought
This day would come so soon
We had no time to say goodbye
How can the world just carry on?
I feel so lost when you are not by my side
But there's nothing but silence now
Around the one I loved
Is this our farewell?

Sweet darling you worry too much, my child
See the sadness in your eyes
You are not alone in life
Although you might think that you are

So sorry your world is tumbling down
I will watch you through these nights
Rest your head and go to sleep
Because my child, this not our farewell.
This is not our farewel




Our farewell-Within temptation ft. Tarja Turu from Nightwish

[Willowtree252]

Take back the holly and mistletoe
Silver bells on strings
If I wrote a letter to Santa Claus
I would ask for just one thing
I don't need sleigh rides in the snow
Don't wanna a Christmas that's blue
Take back the tinsel, stockings, and bows
Cause all I want for Christmas is you

I don't need expensive things, they don't matter to me
All that I want can't be found underneath the Christmas tree
Vince Vance & The valiants-
All I want for Christmas is you

You are the angel that tops my tree
You are my dream come true
Santa can't bring me what I need
Cause all I want for Christmas is you

I don't need expensive things, they don't matter to me
All that I want can't be found underneath the Christmas tree

You are the angel that tops my tree
You are my dream come true
Santa can't bring me what I need
Cause all I want for Christmas is you

Another red letter day
So the pound has dropped and the children are creating
The other half ran away
Taking all the cash and leaving you with the lumber
Got a pain in the chest
Doctors on strike what you need is a rest

It's not easy love, but you've got friends you can trust
Friends will be friends
When you're in need of love they give you care and attention
Friends will be friends
When you're through with life and all hope is lost
Hold out your hand 'cos friends will be friends - right till the end

Now it's a beautiful day
The postman delivered a letter from your lover
Only a 'phone call away
You tried to track him down but somebody stole his number
As a matter of fact
You're getting used to life without him in your way

It's so easy now, 'cos you got friends you can trust
Friends will be friends
When you're in need of love they give you care and attention
Friends will be friends
When you're through with life and all hope is lost
Hold out your hand 'cos friends will be friends - right till the end

It's so easy now, 'cos you got friends you can trust
Friends will be friends
When you're in need of love they give you care and attention
Friends will be friends
When you're through with life and all hope is lost
Hold out your hand 'cos right till the end - friends will be friends
Yeah yeah

Je serais la près de toi
*I will be here next to you*
Même si je sais que tu ne me vois pas
*even if i know you don't see me*
Je marcherai dans tes pas

Même dans le ciel tout contre toi
*even in the sky next to me*
Ton ange gardien, Le jour, la nuit

Ton âme soeur au paradis

Je t'aimerais même dans la mort
*I will love you even after my death*
Car mon amour est bien trop fort

Homeless~ Leona Lewis

Waiting here for you to call me
For you to tell me that everything’s a big mistake
Waiting here in this rainfall
Feeling so small this dream was not supposed to break
I’m so sorry now
For the pain I’ve caused you
Won’t you please forgive please

But you don’t love me anymore
You don’t want me anymore
Theres a sign on your door no vacancy just emptiness without your love
I’m homeless

In this cold I’m walking aimless
Feeling hopeless without a shelter from the storm
And in my heart I miss you so much

I’m missing your touch and the bed used to be so warm
I’m so sorry now
For the pain I’ve caused you
Won’t u please forgive please

But you don’t love me anymore
You don’t want me anymore
Theres a sign on your door no vacancy just emptiness without your love
I’m homeless

And my baby I’m sorry
Sorry that you don’t love me
You don’t want me anymore
Theres a sign on your door no vacancy just emptiness without your love
I’m homeless

MICHELLE BRANCH LYRICS

"Love Me Like That"
(feat. Sheryl Crow)

Well you stole my heart
And I'll get it back
But look me in the eye babe
Tell me why ya gonna love me like that
Why ya gonna love me like that

Well I've walked this world
Five times or more
And after all this walking babe
You still got me crawlin on the floor
crawlin on the floor
And I know this world keeps on turning
Keeps me yearning

[Chorus]
How can you turn and walk away
Pretending everythings okay?
How can you turn your back?
Tell me why ya gonna love me like that
why ya gonna love me like that?

Well I thought you'd listen
But I'm shattered like broken glass
Well I thought that we'd be different babe
Yeah, I thought that we would last
I thought that we would last
And I know this world keeps on spinning
Every minute that you're in it

[Chorus]

Love me or leave me baby but don't lead me on
With loving like yours believe me i'm better off
I"m better off alone
Well I was your gypsy
Throwing diamonds at your feet
Drifted round you like a satellite
Gave you everything you need
Everything you need
And I know this world keeps on turning
Keeps me yearning and yearning

[Chorus]

How can you just break away
Why can't you find the words to say
Love is something you work at
Tell me why ya gonna love me like that
Why ya gonna love me like that
How can you throw us away
Look at what you lost today
Now everything is shades of gray
And now you're pushing me away
Say all the things you want to say
Thought we were going all the way
Play all the games you wanna play
Slowly we just fade away

[singgirl]

Wah wah one and one is two
We got a drama
I'm watching TV and I don't need you
Bring on the drama
I'll tell you something and you know it's true
You're full of drama
My piss is yellow and the sky is blue
W got a drama

Spare me
You're draining me

Wah wah one and two is three
Bring on the drama
There's something wrong yeah I agree
We got a drama
I'll tell you something that you're choking me
With all you're drama
Life stinks and the grass is green
We got a drama

Spare me, you're draining me
Draining me, draining me, draining me
You're draining me

One, two, fuck you

Spare me, you're draining me
Draining me, draining me, draining me

You're draining me

Je suis d'ici et d'ailleurs
*I'm from here and from there*
Entre deux vies
*between two lifes*
Celle que je trouve dehors
*one i find out*
Et celle que je recherche encore
*one i'm still reaching*
Je suis d'ici et d'ailleurs
*I'm from here and from there*
Entre deux vies
*between two lifes*
Celle dont je vois le décor
*one i see the décor* =)
Et celle qui m'échappe encore
*one that escape me*

J'ai besoin de me connaître,
*I need to know myself*
J'ai besoin de savoir d'où je viens
*I need to know where i come from*

[Miss Elly]

For my, Miss Natalie, of course.

Rest in Pieces

Look at me, my depth perception must be off again
Cause this hurts deeper than I thought it did
It has not healed with time
It just shot down my spine

You look so beautiful tonight
Remind me how you laid us down
And gently smiled before you destroyed my life

Would you find it in your heart?
To make this go away
And let me rest in pieces
Would you find it in your heart?
To make this go away
And let me rest in pieces
Would you find it in your heart?
To make it go away
And let me rest in pieces

Look at me, my depth perception must be off again
You got much closer than I thought you did
I'm in your reach
You held me in your hands

But could you find it in your heart?
To make this go away
And let me rest in pieces
Would you find it in your heart?
To make it go away
And let me rest in pieces

Because I want you: Placebo

Fall into you
Is all I seem to do
When I hit the bottle
Cuz I'm afraid to be alone
Tear us in two
Is all it seems to do
As the anger fades
This house is no longer a home

Don't give up on the dream
Don't give up on the wanting
And everything that's true
Don't give up on the dream
Don't give up on the wanting

Because I want you to
Because I want you to
Because I want you to
Because I want you
Because I want you

Stumble into you
Is all I ever do
My memory's hazy
And I'm afraid to be alone
Tear us in two
Is all it's gonna do
As the headache fades
This house is no longer a home

Don't give up on the dream
Don't give up on the wanting
And everything that's true
Don't give up on the dream
Don't give up on the wanting

Because I want you to
Because I want you to
Because I want you to
Because I want you
Because I want you

Because I want you to
Because I want you to
Because I want you
Because I want you

Fall into you
Is all I ever do
When I hit the bottle
Cuz I'm afraid to be alone
Tear us in two
Tear us in two
Tear us in two

Because I want you to
Because I want you to
Because I want you
Because I want you

Because I want you to
Because I want you to
Because I want you
Because I want you

"The Everthere" By Elbow

***
All my saints have taken bribes
Singing going going gone
All the angels taken dives
Leaving you the only one

If I loose a sequin here and there
More salt than pepper in my hair
Can I rely on you
When all the songs are through
To be for me the everthere, everthere

Slide into another book
Now and then laugh out loud
Throw that very dirty look
That says
OK
Stop staring at me now

If I loose the sequence here and there
Less daring do than quiet care
Can I rely on you
For a good talking to
To be for me the everthere, everthere

If I loose a sequin here and there
And take my time on every stair
Can I rely on you
When this whole thing is through
***


I know I can, and I love it

[Miss Elly]

"It's not over." by Secondhand Serenade.

I'm falling apart, I'm falling apart
Don't say this won't last forever
You're breaking my heart, you're breaking my heart
Don't tell me that we will never be together
We could be, over and over
We could be, forever

I'm falling apart, I'm falling apart
Don't say this won't last forever
You're breaking my heart, you're breaking my heart
Don't tell me that we will never be together
We could be, over and over
We could be, forever

It's not over, it's not over, it's never over
Unless you let it take you
It's not over, it's not over, it's not over
Unless you let it break you
It's not over

Nene 99 Red Balloons, dedicated to henny who is blowing up balloons for her dad's birthday

You and I in a little toy shop
Buy a bag of balloons
With the money we've got
Set them free at the break of dawn they float up!
Till one by one they were gone
Back at base, bugs in the software
Flash the message "Something's out there"
Floating in the summer sky
99 red balloons go by ur cat down there

99 red balloons floating in the summer sky
Panicked birds, it's red alert
There's something there from somewhere else
The war machine springs to life
Opens up one eager eye
Focuses it on the sky
99 red balloons go by

99 decisions treaty, 99 ministers meets
To worry-worry, super scurry
Call the troops out in a hurry
This is what we've waited for
This is it boys, this is war
The president is on the line
As 99 red balloons go by

99 knights of the air ride
Super hi-tech jet fighters
Everyone's a super hero
Everyone's a captain kirk
With orders to identify
To clarify and classify
Scramble in the summer sky
99 red balloons go by

99 dreams I have had
And every one a red balloon
It's all over and I'm standing pretty
In this dust that was a city
I could find a souvenier
Just to prove the world was here
And here is a red balloon
I think of you and let it go...

[woahnellie]

fake it-seether

Whose to know if your soul will fade at all
The one you sold to fool the world
You lose your self-esteem along the way
Good god, you're coming up with reasons
Good god, you're dragging it out
Good god, it's the changing of the seasons
It feels so great, so follow me down

Fake it if your out of direction
Fake it if you don't belong
Fake it if you feel like infection
Whoa, your such a fucking hypocrite

You should know that the lies won't hide your flaws
No sense in hiding all of yours
You gave up on your dreams along the way
Good god, you're coming up with reasons
Good god, you're dragging it out
Good god, it's the changing of the seasons
It feels so great, so follow me down and just...


Fake it if your out of direction
Fake it if you don't belong
Fake it if you feel like infection
Whoa, your such a fucking hypocrite

I can fake with the best of anyone
I can fake with the best of them all
I can fake it with the best of anyone
I can fake it all

Whose to know if your soul will fade at all
The one you sold to fool the world
You lose your self-esteem along the way
Good god, you're coming up with reasons
Good god, you're dragging it out

Go on and close the curtains
Cause all we need is candle light
You and me and a bottle of wine
Going to hold you tonight
Well we know I'm going away
And how I wish, I wish it weren't so
So take this wine and drink with me
Let's delay our misery

Save tonight
And fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow I'll be gone

Save tonight
And fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow I'll be gone

There's a log on the fire
And it burns like me for you
Tomorrow comes with one desire
To take me away it's true
It ain't easy to say goodbye
Darling please don't start to cry
Cause girl you know I've got to go, oh
Lord I wish it wasn't so

Save tonight
And fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow I'll be gone

Save tonight
And fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow I'll be gone

Tomorrow comes to take me away
I wish that I, that I could stay
Girl you know I've got to go, oh
Lord I wish it wasn't so

Save tonight
And fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow I'll be gone

Save tonight
And fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow

Come tomorrow

'Save tonight' by Eagle Eye Cherry

[Yours]

Tough, you think you've got the stuff
You're telling me and anyone
You're hard enough

You don't have to put up a fight
You don't have to always be right
Let me take some of the punches
For you tonight

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone

And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own

We fight all the time
You and I... that's alright
We're the same soul
I don't need... I don't need to hear you say
That if we weren't so alike
You'd like me a whole lot more

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone

And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own

I know that we don't talk
I'm sick of it all
Can you hear me when I Sing,
you're the reason I sing
You're the reason why the opera is in me

Where are we now?
I've got to let you know
A house still doesn't make a home
Don't leave me here alone

And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
Sometimes you can't make it
The best you can do is to fake it
Sometimes you can't make it on your own

Sometimes you can't make it on your own - u2

Racontez-moi
Quel est ce lien qui me tient vivant dans ce monde
Rassurez-moi
Si les douleurs nous rendaient meilleurs
Racontez-moi

A ceux qui rêvent sans fin
Qui s'accordent un repos
Comme ceux qui meurent pour rien
Si loin sans une rose
Je me dis que soudain
Mes peurs c'n'est pas grand chose
Pas grand chose

'cause I like going for hikes and riding bikes
and playing video games in the middle of the night
and I'll stay up late and I wont even care
that we're getting up early to go to the state fair
I'm gonna ride the biggest ride it'll be out of sight
then I'll share an elephant ear with you if you'd like
because we are alive so we've gotta live life
to the fullest you spin the bottle and I'll dim the lights
four five six seven minutes in the closet

you were on my mind at least nine tenths of yesterday
it seemed as if perhaps I'd gone insane
what is it about you that has commandeered my brain?
maybe it's your awesome songs or maybe it's the way
you go straight to the top you're not scared of getting squashed
you know just when to jump off
you're so brave
and then you run to the right it seems there's no hope in sight
and you drop down to the tube that takes you right to level eight

life is a highway and I'm gonna ride it
every day's a winding road yeah
my rollercoaster's got the biggest ups and downs
as long as it keeps goin' round its unbelievable
