Here's the lyrics from one of my band's songs.
THE PURSUIT When I awoke, I beheld in the tempest the passion inside it's design Born out of love and a determination to burn in the fire of life Breathing in, the fire is calling Can't you feel it calling to you? Come wash your hands clean of yesterday The moment is now It exists People will speak of the deeds which unfolded, but others will follow People will reap of the seeds that have broken ground, no longer hollow Long after everything's reason falls apart, an honest beginning Awaken the soul and embrace an open heart Rise from the ashes and wreckage of yesterday We deceive our true design, employ a false intent, destroy our inner light to appease what we erect to our sleeping mind a master indirect We deceive our true design, employ a false intent, destroy our inner light to appease what we erect to our sleeping mind a master indirect The present existence, broken and lost through time A beckoning consummation The opening eye Assumption falls apart Existence spirals out Perspective expansion Potential realized right now We deceive ourselves, abandon ourselves to prostrate the God within Remember yourself and master yourself to become your own disciple now

felt alive
Take me from the city. Stand up this is a ****ing ovation. Stand up! Stand up! All together we scream-Prelude to a dream-A skylit Drive Hey baby, do you see me cause I'm staring at you Hey baby, I want you I want you Hey baby, do you see me cause I'm staring at you Hey baby, I want you I want you alive Come sit next to me Can you see into my mind?-Eva the Carrier- A Skylit Drive |

You know, I've realized that it's important to have a combination of what exactly the lyrics are and how they're sung or screamed or whatever.

"The Last Beat of My Heart"! Great stuff
In the sharp gust of love My memory stirred When time wreathed a rose A garland of shame Its thorn my only delight War torn, afraid to speak We dare to breathe Majestic Imperial A bridge of sighs Solitude sails In a wave of forgiveness On angels' wings Reach out your hands Don't turn your back Don't walk away How in the world Can I wish for this? Never to be torn apart Close to you 'Til the last beat Of my heart At the close of day The sunset cloaks These words in shadowplay Here and now, long and loud My heart cries out And the naked bone of an echo says Don't walk away Reach out your hands I'm just a step away How in the world Can I wish for this? Never to be torn apart Close to you 'Til the last beat Of my heart How in the world Can I wish for this? Never to be torn apart 'Til the last beat 'Til the last fleeting beat Of my heart |

Here's a few lines that I like a lot.
"I only see rainbows, now that the bandages are gone, from my window, there. From the skyscrapers, down to the submarines. Birds and fairies, sanctuary, atop the rolling hills of Hell. His words are sledgehammers of truth that pound the iron heart of sin. Bloody smiling, vandalizing, my wet dream is drying up." "The Air Conditioned Nightmare" - Mr. Bungle The entire song has really powerful lyrics, but I chose these because of the combination of thought and sound. To me, it paints a vivid picture of American decadence.
