1155 QA Reputation10 | Kristine said 10 years ago: this is Beauty From The Pain by Superchick
The lights go out all around me
One last candle to keep out the night
And then the darkness surrounds me
I know I’m alive but I feel like I’ve died
And all that’s left is to accept that it’s over
My dreams ran like sand through the fists that I made
I try to keep warm but I just grow colder
I feel like I’m slipping away After all this has passed, I still will remain
After I’ve cried my last, there’ll be beauty from pain
Though it won’t be today, someday I’ll hope again
And there’ll be beauty from pain
You will bring beauty from my pain My whole world is the pain inside me
The best I can do is just get through the day
When life before is only a memory
I’ll wonder why God lets me walk through this place
And though I can’t understand why this happened
I know that I will when I look back someday
And see how you’ve brought beauty from ashes
And made me as gold purified through these flames After all this has passed, I still will remain
After I’ve cried my last, there’ll be beauty from pain
Though it won’t be today, someday I’ll hope again
And there’ll be beauty from pain
You will bring beauty from my pain Here I am at the end of me (at the end of me)
Tryin’ to hold to what I can’t see (to what I can’t see)
I forgot how to hope
This night’s been so long
I cling to Your promise
There will be a dawn After all this has passed, I still will remain
After I’ve cried my last, there’ll be beauty from pain
Though it won’t be today, someday I’ll hope again
And there’ll be beauty from pain
You will bring beauty from my pain | |

272 QA Reputation0 | Adrian said 10 years ago: Smashing Pumpkins – 1979: And I don’t even care to shake these zipper blues
And we don’t know
Just where our bones will rest
To dust I guess
Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below Smashing Pumpkins – Thirty-Three: Tomorrow’s just an excuse away
So I pull my collar up and face the cold, on my own And the go-to song for me whenever I feel down or in the wrong place: Radiohead – Creep: I don’t care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice when I’m not around
You’re so f*cking special
I wish I was special But I’m a creep
I’m a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don’t belong here But nothing is as purely emotional as the guitar solo from Soma by Smashing Pumpkins. Gives me chills every time. | |

But I’m gonna survive

160 QA Reputation0 | Gaby* said 10 years ago: From one of my favorite bands Placebo, in their song Bright Lights there’s this line “A heart that hurts is a heart that works”, when a friend of mine was feeling down I showed him this song and seems like it worked quite well. | |

206 QA Reputation144 | firefly22 said 10 years ago: my favorite song “Stand my Ground” by Within Temptation: “Stand My Ground” I can see
When you stay low nothing happens
Does it feel right? Late at night
Things I thought I put behind me
Haunt my mind I just know there’s no escape
Now once it sets its eyes on you
But I won’t run,
Have to stare it in the eye Stand my ground, I won’t give in
No more denying, I’ve got to face it
Won’t close my eyes and hide the truth inside
If I don’t make it, someone else will
Stand my ground It’s all around
Getting stronger, coming closer
Into my world I can feel
That it’s time for me to face it
Can I take it? Though this might just be the ending
Of the life I held so dear
But I won’t run,
There’s no turning back from here All I know for sure is I’m trying
I will always stand my ground Stand my ground, I won’t give in (I won’t give in)
I won’t give up (I won’t give up)
no more denying, I got to face it
won’t close my eyes and hide the truth inside
if I don’t make it, someone else will Stand my ground, I won’t give in
no more denying, I got to face it
won’t close my eyes and hide the truth inside
if I don’t make it, someone else will
stand my ground | |

749 QA Reputation123 | Exhaustedcraver said 10 years ago: To bring something french and great, here is my favourite song: Indila – La dernière danse Je remue le ciel, le jour, la nuit. Je danse avec, le vent, la pluie. Un peu d’amour, un brin de miel et je danse, danse, danse, danse, danse, danse, danse.
Et dans le bruit, je cours et j’ai peur.
Est-ce mon tour? Vient la, douleur.
Dans tout Paris je m’abondonne et je m’envole, vole, vole, vole, vole, vole, vole. TRANSLATION (for those who care (: )
I move the sky, the day, the night. I dance with the wind and the rain. A little love, a bit of honey and i dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, dance. And in the noise, i run and i’m afraid.
Is it my turn? (no idea how to translate this part). I hide in Paris and i burst open (…vole, vole, vole, …) | |

She’s moving way too fast and all he wanted was to hold her.
- Sic Transit Gloria, Brand New We’re constructed from the same design
With a heart that makes no sense to the mind
We can keep it together but pressure and time have their way For the things we try to keep inside
Find their way out in the dark of the night
All it takes is the tiniest touch and there’s only so much
Before we break
- China, Sparkadia Can’t stop the spirits when they need you
This life is more than just a read-through
- Can’t Stop, Red Hot Chili Peppers And if they sent a whirlwind,
I’d hug it like a harmless little tree.
Or an earthquake,
I’d calm it,
And I’d bring you back to me.
- Walk Through Hell, Say Anything How would you cope it the world decided to
Make you suffer for all that you were?
&Don’t you know people write songs about girls like you?- Girls Like You, Naked and Famous I got carried away but, oh well. | |

109 QA Reputation20 | Hex Girl said 10 years ago: Love Will Tear Us Apart by Joy Division
“When routine bites hard,
And ambitions are low,
And resentment rides high,
But emotions won’t grow,
And we’re changing our ways,
Taking different roads. Then love, love will tear us apart again.
Love, love will tear us apart again.”
That entire song is so true and reflective of what a failing relationship feels like. | |
