I just had to start this because of the hip hop thread going around.

"if you dont live for something, you'll die for nothing"-Hatebreed @ the beginning of Chain Reaction 5 (not much for cliche **** like that but it rocks)

"Look how pretty she is, when she falls down.
Now there’s no beauty in bleeding mascara."-Atreyu

"Coward, the next time you want to **** me over stab me in the front " -Atreyu as well

took the red pill
Lying, dying, screaming in pain.
Begging, pleading, bullets drop like rain.
Mines explode, pain sheers through your brain,
Radical amputation, this is insane.

Fly swatter stakes drive through your chest :D
Spikes impale you as you're forced off the crest :D
Soldier of misfortune
Hunting with bated breath.

A vile smell, like tasting death.
Dead bodies, dying and wounded
Litter the city streets
Shattered glass, bits of clothing and human deceit.
Dying in terror,
Blood's cheap, it's everywhere.
Mandatory suicide, massacre on the front line.

I know my metal/hardcore scene but cant seem to put a finger on who that is :think: little help?

took the red pill
Oh, we're gonna go there ha?

HERE YA GO

Well, they gave him his orders at Monroe, Virginia
Saying Steve you are way behind time
This is not thirty eight, but it's old ninety seven
You must put her into Danville on time



He turned and said to his black greasy fireman
Just shovel on a little more coal
And when we cross the White Oak Mountain
You can watch old ninety seven roll



It's a mighty rough road from lynchburg to Daville
On a line on a three mile grade
It was on this grade that he lost his average
You can see what a jump he made



He was going down the grade makin' ninety miles an hour
When his whistle broke into a scream
They found him in the wreck with his hand on the throttle
He was scalded to death by the steam



Now ladies, you must take warning
From this time now on learn
Never speak harsh words to your true loving husband
He may leave you and never return

I'm gonna knock it down
Anyway that I can
I'm gonna scream, I'm gonna yell
I don't wanna have to use my hands

It's like screaming at a wall
Someday it's gonna fall

You build that wall up around you
And now you can't see out
And now you can't hear my words
No matter how hard I shout

It's like screaming at a wall
Someday it's gonna fall
You're safe inside and you know it
'Cause I can't get to you
And you know I resent it
And my temper grows

You better reinforce those walls
Until you don't have room to stand
'Cause someday those bricks are gonna fall
Someday I'm gonna use my hands

alright knuckle wanna play, slayer is good...but kinda burnt out welcome to the new school, here is a piece of artwork from my fav sweeds

"Hey, come and join the show
All the cameras are ready to go
Just aim and end another
But think, as I rape your mother

A single step - a garbled life
Where's the profit?
Your rage - the pain
Will it all be worth it?

Genetic, it seems to be....
Abandon, the mass ideal
We think we're in control then we become the things we hate
Lets re-unite and brush the dust away

Obtain a prosperous future
and the admiration of all
Act in "the sensations" media hour
All inhale the downward spiral"

anders is the fvcking man

Holly came from Miami, F.L.A.
Hitch-hiked her way across the USA
Plucked her eyebrows on the way
Shaved her legs and then he was a she
She says, Hey babe
Take a walk on the wild side

Purple haze, all in my brain
Lately things just don't seem the same
I got money, but I don't know why
'Scuse me, while I kiss the sky

Little pictures in my head are turnin' inside out again
'Cause ****in' up takes practice I feel I'm well rehearsed
Because the past is a bully and the futures even worse
You tell me what you fear 'cause I can feel it like a curse

Annie's twelve years old, in two more she'll be a whore, nobody every told her it's the wrong way. Don't be afraid at the quickness you get laid, for your family get paid, it's the wrong way.

"Rock and roll means well, but it can't help telling young boys lies"
Drive by Truckers

Oh and if Slayer is cliche it is only because every other death metal band tried to sound like them. When they hit the scene there was nothing else like it. There still isn't in my opinion.......... Pantera was pretty tops as well.

- Phish :D
i'd say of all phish, my favorite lyrics are FEFY, silent in the morning, driver, and
But who can unlearn all the facts that I've learned
As I sat in their chairs and my synapses burned
And the torture of chalk dust collects on my tongue
Thoughts follow my vision and dance in the sun
All my vasoconstrictors they come slowly undone
Can't this wait 'til I'm old
Can't I live while I'm young?

another favorite, from Fun Lovin' Criminals (crime and punishment)
I ain't pushin' no party, I ain't meddlin' in Saudi
but i think it's ****ed up what the fed's have laid on me.
i'm watching the news, you're forcing people to chose
between the lesser of two evils, my red, white, and blue.
the decievers decieving because the people believe him
now the troops are bleedin' and their mama's are grieving
so keep on paying your taxes while you don't know the facts
let the contracts get backed while your conscience relaxes

CDT :thumb: a good one for sure... Golgi is not my all time favorite but it is my name on the :monkey: so I had to use it.

My favorite of all time:
"Control for smilers cant be bought"
or
"The herbivores ate well cuz their food didnt ever run"

Both... so true :D

"BAP BOOM A BIGGIDDY BOOM BIGGIDY BOOM!"

No man I cant make it, I have too many things goping on at work (4 years ago I would have done anything to get there but, times have changed)...

My old band's late guitarist Mike's ashes are being scattered at Covantry by the bands road manager, can you believe that! His favorite band of all time was Phish and I know he would have been at Covantry had he lived through his accident. When I hear about Cov I cant help but think it will be the final resting place (sort of) of my good friend.

"Inches From Life"
mxpx

There's something wrong inside of us
It's important to discuss
A narrow mind a hardened heart
And this is just the very start

Frustration gets the best of me
So I dont speak coherently
We are are taught to go along
We need to figure out it might be wrong

You oughta know you can be inches from life
And never live at all
You oughta know that our pride is our downfall
There's no need to stand up tall

No one knows what's going on
Even those who cause oppression
Most of which dont realize
Uneasy smiles and blackened eyes

Could it be there's something real
Not always known but you can feel
The presence of an absolute
That our lives cant substutute
