Favourite Lyrics Thread

[Sakaki]

I'm always really obsessed with lyrics to the songs that
I listen to, and thought maybe we could have a favourite lyrics thread.

Okay, so here is one of my favourite song lyrics.
It's from D.N. Angel ~ Rakuen (Krad's song) sung by seiyuu Kusao Takeshi
It's creepily awesome! 
And I actually have the translation.
Oh, and you can get the song from Gendou, if you haven't heard it.

Kimi wo wana ni kakemashou mado no nai heya de
Boku wo tsumi ni somemashou shikou no jiai de
Let me catch you in my trap
Here in this room without windows.
May you dye me in sin
Here in this supreme love.

Kairaku no yaiba de
Tsubasa wo kirisute
With a sword of pleasure
I cut away my wings.

Mi mo kokoro mo tokeaeru towa naru rakuen
Odori kurue soshite kuroi namida wo nagase
Aa... kirei...
Both body and mind can melt together
In eternal paradise.
Dance in ecstasy,
And cry black tears.
Aah...beautiful...

Yorokobi todokeyou
Kanbina itami de
If I could reach out, gladly
With that sweet pain.

Saiketa hane shiki tsumete kimi wo yokatayou
Itoshi sugiru sugata ni ima, juu-ji wo kirou
I spread over you
the wings I tore away
And lie down with you.
Now, for the being who is so precious
Let me wear my cross.

Toki hanaseba ii afuredashi souna yokubou
Sono toki ni hajimete shukufuku no kane ga naru
Aa... kirei...
I should set you free,
This overflowing desire,
Then, for the first time,
The chimes of blessing resound.
Aah...beautiful...

[Moon]

Not an anime song, but I love it! 

John Mayer - 3x5

I'm writing you to
Catch you up on places I've been
You held this letter
Probably got excited, but there's nothing else inside it
Didn't have a camera by my side this time
Hopping I would see the world with both my eyes
maybe I will tell you all about it when I'm
in the mood to lose my way with words
Today skies are painted colors of a cowboy's cliche'
And strange how clouds that look like mountains in the sky
are next to mountains anyway
Didn't have a camera by my side this time
Hoping I would see the world with both my eyes
Maybe I will tell you all about it when I'm
in the mood to lose my way
but let me say
You should have seen that sunrise with your own eyes
it brought me back to life
You'll be with me next time I go outside
no more 3x5s

Guess you had to be there
Guess you had to be with me Oh, today I finally overcame
tryin' to fit the world inside a picture frame
Maybe I will tell you all about it when I'm in the mood to
lose my way but let me say
You should have seen that sunrise with your own eyes
it brought me back to life
You'll be with me next time I go outside
no more 3x5's
just no more 3x5s

My fav at the moment is a Heero Yuy song from Gundam Wing, Flying Away

Moetsukita chihei no kanata - In the burnt horizon yonder
Hito-suji no asahi ga kagayaku - A ray of morning sun shines

Kizutsuite mo egao wo wasurenai -Though hurt, I shall not forget your face
Itsu ka aeru ashita wo sagasou  - I search for the tomorrow when I will meet you

SAYONARA higashi no sora e tabidatsu tori yo - FAREWELL A bird setting off to the eastern skies
Sekai wa itsu mo omae no subete wo tsutsumu  - The world's always around you

Namida nakushita asa ni - Even in the morning I run out of tears
Mou ichi-do nani ka ga hajimaru  - Once again something begins

Oikakete mo todokanai mono nara -  If it's something that I can't reach despite chasing it
Inochi kakete kono te ni tsukamou - Risking life I'll grasp it in my hands

FLYING AWAY Kokoro no mama ni tonde yukitai - FLYING AWAY I want to fly the way I am
FLYING AWAY Kimi no tame nara sora wo kakeyou FLYING...  - FLYING AWAY If it's for your sake I shall cruise the skies FLYING...

SAYONARA higashi no sora e tabidatsu tori yo - FAREWELL A bird setting off to the eastern skies
Sekai wa itsu mo omae wo matte ita hazu - The world ought to have been waiting for you

FLYING AWAY Kaze ni dakarete tonde yukitai - FLYING AWAY I want to fly embraced by the wind
FLYING AWAY Kimi no tame nara jiyuu ni nareru FLYING... - FLYING AWAY If it's for you I can be free FLYING...

FLYING...

kira's image song! YES! Ima Kono Shunkan Ga Subete (Now, This Moment is Everything) It's so BEAUTIFUL!!! ...to me anyway.
although, it's a bit suicidal...i like the last part.

[ Translation ]

Forever in my heart
Raising my eyes to reveal a blue cross

As long as there's justification, there's no need for limitations
Even if it was driven by distorted feelings
According to the scenario time established,
if my hands are set into motion...
My heart is undeceived by the stars
that burst open and die away in the sky
If only I was given just a little more...

To the colorless glittering sky, I'll entrust tomorrow
Living a meaningless life like this,
it's best to just keep running

I was sitting idly in this place, just like always
But behind every quiet breath I drew,
The kind of pain one can feel even without being physically touched
should have been overflowing
And there's only one thing that I can say:
Now, this moment is everything

To the colorless glittering sky, I'll entrust my body
The only things I can believe in from now on
are the things I can feel with my own fingertips

To the colorless glittering sky, I'll entrust tomorrow
Living a meaningless life
like this...
To the colorless glittering sky, I'll entrust my body
The only things I can believe in from now on
are the things I can feel with my own fingertips

the song is so upbeat, it scares me but it's pretty. I love hearing kira's va sing. he has the cutest cheeks. I WANTED HIS JACKET.

One of my favourites would be Koi wa Thrill Shock Suspense, from Meitantei Conan   

Koi wa thrill, shock, suspense mienai chikara tayori ni...
kokoro no tobira tozasazu ni tsuyoku...tsuyoku...

Watashi ga kanjiteita toge o kimi ni no onaji you ni ataeteita no kamo
shirenakatta
Nani ni kokoro o itamete nani ni obieteita no ka ki ni mo tomezu
Motsureteku futari no shinjitsu ni mukiau no ga kowakatta

This love is thril, shock, suspense
Mayoi o aoi kaze ni chirasou toshite mo
Kakaekirezu ni ita yo kono chisana mune ni wa
Kokoro no tobira tozasazu ni
Tsugi e to susumu arata na fuan to mayoi o kakaeteshimaisou ni natte mo

Yawarakasugiru ai nidakareteita yo kitto
Nakushite ki ga tsuita yo chisana nukumori
Ima ni natte ne kimi no omoi no fukasa ga miesou de
Machigatteinai mono ya massugu na mono o
Itsumo miseteitekureta n da ne

This love is thrill, shock, suspense
Futaritomo ni sugoshita jikan o mou muda na hibi datta nante
Kizu ni nanaka shinai yo
Mitsuketa yo ano hi no kotae
Kimi to no kizamareta kiokutachi wa kokoro no dokoka de shizuka ni ikizuiteku
yo

-looking for exit to escape-
Kimi ha tokku ni mieteita n da ne
Kowareyasukute mamoru mono nante nai to akirameteta dake datta to...

This love is thrill, shock, suspense
Kimi kara watashi kara subete kara mo nigete tadori tsuiteta no wa
Dokodemo nai tokoro datta mou nigemichi wa iranai yo
Tatoe namida o nagashita toshite mo watashi mo nanimo kowarenai to shitta kara

[English Translation]

love is a thrill, shock, and suspense relying on unseen forces...
powerfully without locking up the heart's door... powerfully...

maybe I was giving you pain similar to what I've felt
without thinking about what gave me pain,what I feared
I feared facing the complicated truth

this love is thrill, shock, suspense
even if I try to scatter doubt in the blue winds
I was unable to carry the burden with this small chest
without locking up the heart's door
even if I must carry more anxiety and doubt as I continue on

perhaps I was being carried by a soft love
I noticed when I lost the small warmth
now I begin to see the depth of your feelings
the correct things, straight things
you've shown those to me

this love is thrill, shock, suspense
the time that both of us overlooked was useless
I won't make them into scars
I've finally found the answer
memories with you will continue to live quietly inside me

-looking for exit to escape-
you've already seen it
just giving up, there's nothing fragile to protect...

this love is thrill, shock, suspense
running away from you and myself, where I got to was
no where, I won't need ways to escape anymore
because I found out no matter how much tears are shed, nothing will collapse

Drops of Jupiter ~Train
(is a very good song)

Now that she's back in the atmosphere
With drops of Jupiter in her hair, hey, hey
She acts like summer and walks like rain
Reminds me that there's time to change, hey, hey
Since the return from her stay on the moon
She listens like spring and she talks like June, hey, hey

Tell me did you sail across the sun
Did you make it to the Milky Way to see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated

Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking at yourself out there

Now that she's back from that soul vacation
Tracing her way through the constellation, hey, hey
She checks out Mozart while she does tae-bo
Reminds me that there's time to grow, hey, hey

Now that she's back in the atmosphere
I'm afraid that she might think of me as plain ol' Jane
Told a story about a man who is too afraid to fly so he never did land

Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back to the Milky Way
And tell me, did Venus blow your mind
Was it everything you wanted to find
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there

Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken
Your best friend always sticking up for you even when I know you're wrong
Can you imagine no first dance, freeze dried romance five-hour phone conversation
The best soy latte that you ever had . . . and me

Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back toward the Milky Way

Repeat 1st Chorus

Carry my voice to him
Tell him right away
Hurry, come here
Feel the unseen power
I want you to believe in it.
The continuation of the dream is - look!
singing a melody to tomorrow
Carry my voice to him
Tell him right away
Hurry, come here
You hear the mysterious beat
that's reminiscent of days gone by, don't you?
Linking distant memories,
now the story begins.
Words I couldn't say
are spilling out into my hands [1]
Whenever I turn the pages
of the diary to my heart, I realize
you were always there by my side
We met
because of an unseen promise
Please tell me the reason
You still remember
the oath we swore that day, don't you?
Let us paint a rainbow of hope
to the very ends of the sky above
Carry my voice to him
Tell him right away
Hurry, come here
Feel the slight fever rising in my heart
You knew, didn't you?
The continuation of the dream is - look!
singing a melody to tomorrow
The miracle of loving
I'll let out the secret
and run to you
Carry that voice
Tell him right away
Let us go in search of the shining future
that's still as unknown to us
as if we've just layed eyes on it.
Don't be afraid of anything
As long as we're together, we can walk on without stumbling.
Carry my voice to him
Tell him right away
Hurry, come here
Feel the slight fever rising in my heart;
You knew, didn't you?
The continuation of the dream is - look!
singing a melody to tomorrow

o.O interesting thread.... lol

Hoobastank - The Reason *personal favorites

I'm not a perfect person
There's many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you

I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with everyday
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
Thats why i need you to hear

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is You [x4]

I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you

I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you

[Ruby Chan]

Oh, I love that song! Best Hoobastank one ever!

Another set of lyrics form one of my fav songs is....

Iris

And I’d give up forever to touch you
’cause I know that you feel me somehow
You’re the closest to heaven that i’ll
Ever be
And I don’t want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
’cause sooner or later it’s over
I just don’t want to miss you tonight

And I don’t want the world to see me
’cause I don’t think that they’d
Understand
When everything’s made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can’t fight the tears that ain’t
Coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know you’re alive

And I don’t want the world to see me
’cause I don’t think that they’d
Understand
When everything’s made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don’t want the world to see me
’cause I don’t think that they’d
Understand
When everything’s made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don’t want the world to see me
’cause I don’t think that they’d
Understand
When everything’s made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

Couldn't resist doing a Fai amv to that.

[Hori]

OMG THAT SONG ROCKS ! MAN ! Lol..sorry ... little outburst there ,,,, ^_^ "

[Moon]

The lyrics are from: http://www.animelyrics.com

Sorairo; Sky Blue
Fruits Basket

English Translation

Long long is the road oncoming road
Something is hurting and I feel i can't walk on
Standing on tiptoe looking for something everyday but, someday surely
The everchanging sky I look at will be a source of strength
Still there is joy, still there is sadness, and i don't when to expect
either
Still I must carry on, i know
Alone I cry till the dawn comes(1)
With a bit of determination, I continue to walk on
Though my heart is thumping and the snow dances about the road, spring will bring the flower once more
Returning to a painful day here, but i'm ok
Searching to meet a truly kind person
Sadly, Sadly my heart will break during the night
But still i'll believe in what i'm looking for
With my fragile hopes
My wishes will come true, my wishes come true, even though tears may fall, its ok
Though rain is falling, violently falling
All of it is seeping into the ground
Though going on is painful, that same sadness is wonderful
passing by today, passing by here
To see your smile again
Still there is joy, Still I will hold on to those hands

here is yet another good one
 by the killers

Mr Brightside
I'm coming out of my cage
And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I'm falling asleep
And she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke
And she's taking a drag
Now they're going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head
But she's touching his-chest
Now, he takes off her dress
Now, letting me go
I just can't look its killing me
And taking control
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
'Cause I'm Mr Brightside
I'm coming out of my cage
And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I'm falling asleep
And she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke
And she's taking a drag
Now they're going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head
But she's touching his-chest
Now, he takes off her dress
Now, letting me go
Cause I just can't look its killing me
And taking control
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes'Cause I'm Mr Brightside
I never...
I never...
I never..

I love this song soo much!
 is it called cinderella or one headlight?  if someone knows will you tell me?

Wallflowers - Cinderella Lyrics

So long ago, I don't remember when
That's when they say I lost my only friend
Well, they said she died easy of a broken heart disease
As I listened through the cemetery trees

I seen the sun comin' up at the funeral at dawn
The long broken arm of human law
Now, it always seemed such a waste
She always had a pretty face
I wondered why she hung around this place

(CHORUS)
Hey
Come on try a little
Nothing is forever
There's got to be something better than
In the middle
But me and Cinderella
We put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight

She said it's cold
It feels like Independence Day
And I can't break away from this parade
But there's got to be an opening
Somewhere here in front of me
Through this maze of ugliness and greed
And I seen the sun up ahead
At the county line bridge
Sayin' all there's good and nothingness is dead
We'll run until she's out of breath
She ran until there's nothin' left
She hit the end, it's just her window ledge
(CHORUS)
Well, this place is old
It feels just like a beat up truck
I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn
Well, it smells of cheap wine and cigarettes
This place is always such a mess
Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn
I'm so alone, and I feel just like somebody else
Man, I ain't changed, but I know I ain't the same
But somewhere here in between the city walls of dyin' dreams
I think your death, it must be killin' me...

Hey, hey, hey
Come on try a little
Nothing is forever
There's got to be something better than
In the middle
But me and Cinderella
We put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight
