Songs for your dæmon

[Alexei & Kryii]

I didn't see a thread like this anywhere, though Okibi has somethng like it on her webpage proper. These are songs that remind you of your dæmon and such.

Garth Brooks: Wrapped Up in You

How do I love you
Well let me see
I love you like a lyric loves a melody
Maybe, completely, wrapped up in you

How do I need you
Well can't you tell
I need you like a penny needs a wishing well
Maybe, completely, wrapped up in you

Chorus:

Every now and then when the world that we're living in's, crazy
You gladly hold me and car-ry me through
No one in the world's every done what you do for me, and I'd be
Sad and lonely, If there were no you

How do I love you
Well count the ways
There ain't no number high enough to end this phrase
Maybe, completely, wrapped up in you

ba ba buh-ba-ba-ba ba ba ba buh-ba-ba-ba ba
ba-ah buh-ba-ba-ba ba ba ba buh-ba-ba-ba ba

Every now and then when the world that we're living in's, crazy
You gladly hold me and carry me through
No one in the world's every done what you do for me, and I'd be
Sad and lonely, if there were no you

How do I love you
Baby don't you know
I love you 'bout as deep as any love can grow
Maybe, completely, wrapped up in you

Maybe, completely, wrapped up in you



Afro Celts: Amber

B’fhearr liom bheith ag scriobh/ I would rather write

Mar gheall ar solas an lae / About the nature and character of daylight

Na’ behith ag cur sios / Than to describe

Ar miant mo chroi / The yearnings of my heart

B’fhearr liom bheith a siul / I would instead, walk

San bhfoiris gle / The illuminated forest



Rain becomes silver

Leave turn to gold



B’fhearr liom feachaint siar /I would rather look back

Is bheith ag eitilt san aer / And fly through the air

Na’ behith I cgonai troid / Than to always fight

In aghaidh an saol / Against the world

B’fhearr liom bheith im’ leanbh / Instead of this I would be a child

San aoibhneas gie / In intense happiness



Rain becomes silver

Leave turn to gold

Cloth become amber

Wind turn to snow



B’fhearr liom lui ar thalahm / I would rather lie on the ground

Is bheith a stanadh ar an re / And gaze at the heavens

Na’ behith feachaint sios uaim / Than to look down

Ar dath an chre / At the colour of the earth

B’fhearr liom bheith ag cogar / Instead, I would whisper

Le ceol na n-ean / The song of birds



Mere, soeur . . . la guere n’est pas bonne / Mother, sister . . . war is not a good thing

Gens du monde la guere n’a que des vaincus / People of the world, war has only losers

Simple orguell de l’homme pour montrer sa capacite en detruisant son prochain / The simple pride of men to demonstrate their power whilst destroying their brothers

**Note: They only sing the Gaelic, but English translation is provided ^^

[SNL_Ali]

A great song Tyb sings to me, which is kinda the reverse of what this topic is about, but hei sings it to me, and I love it!

Do You Realize, by The Flaming Lips

Do you realize
That you have the most beautiful face?
Do you realize
We're floating in space?
Do you realize
That happiness makes you cry?

Do you realize
That everyone you know someday will die?
And instead of saying all of your good-byes
Let them know you realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun doesn't go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round

Do you realize?

Do you realize
That everyone you know someday will die?
And instead of saying all of your good-byes
Let them know you realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun doesn't go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round

Do you realize
That you have the most beautiful face?

Do you realize?

[|3200k1]

I'm currently going through a Nirvana obsession. -o.o-

Come as You Are- Nirvana
Come as you are, as you were,
As I want you to be
As a friend, as a friend, as an old enemy
Take your time, hurry up
The choice is your, don't be late
Take a rest as a friend as an old memoria

Come dowsed in mud, soaked in bleach
As I want you to be
As a trend, as a friend, as an old memoria

And I swear that I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun


X3 Anyone else into Alt. Music? theKillers? HotHotHeat? The Rasmus? Anyone? I liek finding dæmon songs,but usually it's on when I'm not focusing on the lyrics themselves.

I did say 'and such,' so it works, ^^ And yeah, most of the music between Kryii and myself is more for the feeling than the lyrics, but what are you going to do?

[Zoe 'n' Calosta]

There is actually a thread like this...somewhere but I guess it's better to make a new one than revive the old one. Cal and I both love Evanescence and there's a load of songs that relate to daemons. But one, from Good Charlotte's new album reminds me so much of how Cal helped me when I first met him.

SOS
Is anybody listening?
Can they hear me when I call?
I'm shooting signals in the air
'Cause I need somebody's help
I can't make it on my own
So I'm giving up myself
Is anybody listening...listening?

I've been stranded here and I'm miles away
Making signals hoping they'd save me
I lock myself inside these walls
'Cause out there I'm always wrong
I don't think I'm gonna make it
So while I'm sitting here on the eve of my defeat
I write this letter and hope it saves me

[chorus:]
Is anybody listening?
Can they hear me when I call?
I'm shooting signals in the air
'Cause I need somebody's help
I can't make it on my own
So I'm giving up myself
Is anybody listening...listening?

I'm stuck in my own head and I'm oceans away
Would anybody notice if I chose to stay?
I'll send an S.O.S. tonight
And wonder if I will survive
How in the hell did I get so far away this time?
So now I'm sitting here
And the time of my departure's near
I say a prayer please, someone save me

[chorus]

[bridge:]
I'm lost here
I can't make it on my own
I don't wanna die alone
I'm so scared
Drowning now
Reaching out
Holding onto everything I love
Crying out
Dying now
Need some help

Is anybody listening?
Can they hear me when I call?
Shooting signals in the air
I need somebody's help
I can't make it on my own
I'm giving up myself
Is anybody listening?

[Zoe 'n' Calosta]

I just thought of another one by Evanescence of course ^^

You
The words have been drained from this pencil. Sweet words that I want to give to you. And I can't sleep, I need to tell you, goodnight. When we're together I feel perfect. When I'm pulled away from you I fall apart. All you say is sacred to me.
Your eyes are so blue, I can't look away. As we lay in the stillness you whisper to me
Marry me, promise you'll stay with me
Oh you don't have to ask me, you know I'd die just to hold you. Stay with you. Somehow I'll show you that you are my night sky. I've always been right behind you now I'll always be right beside you
So many nights I've cried myself to sleep. Now that you love me I love myself. I never though I would say this. I never though there'd be...you

[Alexei & Kryii]

Oh, a duet? Awwwwww... *pouts* We dun have a duet...

No.

Pweasssssssssssssssssse?

No.

Aww...

[rave & phair]

My favourite dæmonic song to sing to him is You Set Me Free by Michelle Branch: www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/michellebranch/yousetmefree.html
I duet this with Sylvie, my alternate self; You Get Me, also by Michelle: www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/michellebranch/yougetme.html

My dæmon and death have a shared love of Linkin Park, and their favourite duets are Faint and Forgotten: www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/linkinpark/faint.html www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/linkinpark/forgotten.html.

[Sayuri & Alla]

(I'll probably screw this song up so badly. This is from memory - the opening theme to the Sailor Moon Super S movie, and Alla and I sing it all the time)

Gomen ne sunao ja nakute / I'm sorry that I'm not honest

Yume naka nara ieru / I can say that in my dreams

Shikou kairo wa SHORT sunzen / My thoughts are about to short-circuit

Ima sugu aitai yo / I want to see you right now

Nikita ku o yu yo na MOONLIGHT / It makes me want to cry, this moonlight

Denwa mo dekinai MIDNIGHT / And I can't make a call at midnight

Datte junjou doushiyou / Because I'm naive, what should I do?

HEART wa ma mangekkuyou / My heart is a kaleidoscope

Tsuki no hikari ni mi chibikare / Guided by the light of the moon

Nando no mo meguri au / We meet each other again and again

Minakoru no manusu / Miracle romance

Shinjite iruno / I believe in it

Minakoru no manusu / Miracle romance

[Yumi]

Ooh, Moonlight Densetsu! ^_^ T'was the first song I ever learned how to sing in Japanese, so I have fond memories of it. I think there are a few little errors here and there in the romanji, but I couldn't fix them without looking at the lyrics myself...I tend to make mistakes in spelling even words that I know. But the English is right, I know that much.

For a while, I was thinking that we didn't have any special songs, except for one that sort of doesn't fit the catagory. It's not from Kara to me, or vice versa, and it's not a duet...it just makes me think of her, but I can't really put my finger on why, and it's confusing because it also reminds me of another person...but it just works, somehow. Here's a link to the lyrics:
www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Frontrow/2818/chgf.html
(The song is "Fear of Dying", the second one on the list; I thought that the url to that jump-down point would work, but I tested it and it didn't. ^^; Oops...)

The funny thing about this is, the above song and this one are nothing at all alike, except for the fact that there are female vocalists. ^^ Anyways, I included this one because it was the first song Kara ever sang, just a little while after we first 'met'. www.insomniac.cx/trans/utada/distance.htm
*grumbles* That was before I knew the translation...
Oh, you know would've done it anyway! *grins* When it comes down to it, you're just a big softy! Admit it!
*growls* Not on your life. *bites her human on the ankle*
*winces, but snickers anyway* Haha, you didn't deny it, though; you just don't want to say so in public! Hehe ^^ Besides, if you had to, you'd admit to it, because if it really was on my life, then it would be on yours too, so you wouldn't have a choice! *satisfied smile* It's good to win sometimes. ^_^

[Key & Nax]

Honey and the Moon, Joseph Arthur - I listen to it over and over again. Sometimes Naka sings parts of it to me. It's ambiguous, but it reminds me of how wei feel when I'm doubting him and making all the wrong decisions, and how he feels when he's thinking of me without him and talking about death.

Don't know why I'm still afraid,
If you weren't real I would make you up,
Now.
I wish that I could follow through,
I know that your love is true and deep,
As the sea.

1.But right now,
Everything you want is wrong
And right now,
All your dreams are waking up
And right now, I wish I could follow you
To the shores
Of freedom,
But no one lives.


Remember when we first met,
And everything was still a bet in
Love's games.
You would call I'd call you back,
And then I'd leave a message on your
Answering machine.

2.But right now,
Everything is turning blue
And right now,
The sun is trying to kill the moon
And right now, I wish I could follow you
To the shores
Of freedom,
But no one lives.


3.Freedom
Run away tonight
Freedom (freedom)
Run away (run away tonight)

We're made out of blood and rust,
Lookin' for someone to trust without
A fight.
I think that you came too soon,
You're the honey in the moon that
Lights up my night.

1.
3.

We got too much time to kill,
Like pigeons on my windowsill we hang
Around.
Ever since I've been with you,
You hold me up,
All the time I'm falling
Down.

2.

ETA: I love 'You Get Me'. The lyrics are perfect ^^

[Zoe 'n' Calosta]

Yeah that You Get Me song is awesome! So sweet! Cal and I have 3 duets, all by Evanescence ^^ one is You (of course) then Forgive Me, for when we argue and I don't know how to say sorry I just put that song on and a song by Amy Lee and Seether, Broken, which is our fave. Cal's parts will be in orange, as usual and mine in blue.
Forgive Me
Can you forgive me again
I don't know what I said
But I didn't mean to hurt you

I heard the words come out
I felt that I would die
It hurts so much to hurt you

Then you look at me
You're not shouting anymore
You're silently broken

I'd give anything now
To kill those words for you

Each time I say something I regret
I cry, I don't want to lose you
But somehow I know that you will never leave me

Cause you were made for me
Somehow I'll make you see
How happy you make me
I can't live this life
Without you by my side
I need you to survive

So stay with me
You look in my eyes and I'm screaming inside
That I'm sorry

And you forgive me again
You're my one true friend
And I never meant to hurt you

Broken
I wanted you to know that I love you way you laugh. I wanna hold you high and steal your pain, away.
I keep your photograph and I know it serves me well. I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

Chorus (both of us) - 'Cos I'm Broken, when I'm lonesome and I don't feel right when you've gone away

The worst is over now and we can breathe again. I wanna hold you high and steal my pain, away. There's so much left to learn and no one left to fight. I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

Chorus x2

[cock of teh walk]

Nada Surf - Bacardi

duuuuu duuuuuu duuuuuuuu uuuuuuuuu

duuuuuuu duu uuuuu uu u duuuuuuuu duuu

when you walk home from the party

drunk on bacardi

and listening to the voices that lie

to you nightly

and make you frightened
of everyone

duuu uuuuu ~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~


when you walk home from the party

drunk on bacardi

and listening to the voices
that lie to you nightly

make you sorry for
something
~~~
go home and spend your life

alone with the stereo

watching the late show

you force yourself
out in the night

to meet your generation

with a feel like claymation

its the rest of us

On our knees, we made it hard to see
made it hard to breathe
and the air was thick

uuuuuuuuuu uuuuuuu uuuuu


pssst..more Nada Surf...


Three important rules for breaking up
Don’t put off breaking up when you know you want to
Prolonging the situation only makes it worse
Tell him honestly, simply, kindly, but firmly
Don’t make a big production
Don’t make up an elaborate story
This will help you avoid a big tear jerking scene
If you wanna date other people say so
Be prepared for the boy to feel hurt and rejected
Even if you’ve gone together for only a short time,
And haven’t been too serious,
There’s still a feeling of rejection
When someone says she preferres the company of others
To your exclusive company,
But if you’re honest, and direct,
And avoid making a flowery emotional speech when you brake the news,
The boy will respect you for your frankness,
And honestly he’ll apeciate the kind of straight foward manner
In which you told him your decision
Unless he’s a real jerk or a cry baby you will remain friends

I’m head of the class
’m popular
I’m a quarter back
I’m popular
My mom says I’m a catch
I’m popular
I’m never last picked
I got a cheerleader chick

Being attractive is the most important thing there is
If you wanna catch the biggest fish in your pond
You have to be as attractive as possible
Make sure to keep your hair spotless and clean
Wash it at least every two weeks
Once every two weeks
And if you see jonny football hero in the hall
Tell him he played a great game
Tell him you like his article in the newspaper

I’m the party star
I’m popular
I’ve got my own car
I’m popular
I’ll never get caught
I’m popular
I make football bets
I’m a teachers pet.

I purpose we support a one month limit on going steady
I think it will keep you both more able to deal with weird situation
And get to know more people
I think if you’re ready to go out with jonny
Now’s the time to tell him about your one month limit
He wont mind he’ll apreciate your fresh look on dating
And once you’ve dated someone else you can date him again
I’m sure hell l did
Everyone will appreciate it
You so novel what a good idea
You can keep you time to your self
You don’t need date insurance
You can go out with whoever you want to
Every boy, every boy, in the whole world could be yours
Iif you’ll just listen to my plan
The teenage guide to popularity

Admit It by Say Anything

ADMIT IT! Despite your pseudo-bohemian appearance that vaguely set your doctrine of beliefs, you know nothing of art or sex that you couldn't read in any trendy new york underground fashion magazine...Proto-typical non-conformist. You are a vacuous soldier of the thrift store gastapo. You adhere to a set of standards and tastes that appear to be determined by an unseen panel of hipster judges-BULLSHIT-giving your thumbs up and thumbs down to incoming and outgoing trends and styles of music and art. Go analog baby, you're so post-modern. You're diving face forward into an antiquated past, it's disgusting! It's offensive! go stick your nose in it! Yeah, what do you have to say for yourself? You spend your time sitting in circles with your friends, partipicating to each other, forever competing for that one moment of self agrandizing glory in which you hog the intellectual spotlight, holding dominion over the entire SHALLOW....POINTLESS...conversation. Oh we're not worthy.

When you walk by a group of quote-unquote normal people you chuckle to yourself, patting yourself on the back as you scoff. It's the same superority complex shared by the high school jocks who made your life a living hell, makes you a slave to the competitive capitalist dogma you spend every moment of your waking life BITCHING about! Yeah, what do you have to say for yourself? You're free to whine. It will not get you far. I do just fine, my car and my guitar. I'm proud of my life and the things that I have done, proud of myself and the loner I've become.

Well let me tell you this, I am shamelessly self involved. I spend hours in front of the mirror to make my hair elegantly disheveled. I worry about how this album will sell because I believe it will determine the amount of SEX I will have in the future. I self-medicate with drugs and alcohol to help treat my extreme social anxiety problem. You are a FAKER! You are a FRAUD! You're living a LIE! You don't impress me! You don't intimidate me! ADMIT IT! Why don't you bow down, lie on the ground, then walk this fucking plank! I'm proud of my life and the things that I have done, proud of myself and the loner i've become. You're free to whine. It will not get you far. I do just fine, my car and my guitar, and I am done with this. I wanna taste the breeze of every great city, my car and my guitar. You're urgently unfulfilled, when I'm dead I'll rest.

[Key & Nax]

Hey, Nada Surf! One of their songs always reminds me of Lyra leaving Pantalaimon, on the Shores of the Dead...

If You Leave

If you leave, don't leave now
Please don't take my heart away
Promise me just one more night
Then we'll go our separate ways
We always had time on our side
Now it's fading fast
Every second, every moment
We've gotta make it last

I touch you once, I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now like I needed you then
You always said we'd still be friends someday

If you leave, I won't cry
I won't waste a single day
But if you leave, don't look back
I'll be running the other way
Seven years went under the bridge
Like time was standing still
Heaven knows what happens now
You've gotta say you will

I touch you once, I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now like I needed you then
You always said we'd meet again someday (day, day, day)

I touch you once I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now like I needed you then
You always said we'd meet again someday

If you leave
if you leave
Don't look back
Don't look back

[Zoe 'n' Calosta]

Hey have you noticed thaty most love songs sound like songs for daemons? I guess it's because we do love our daemons, though not in that sense. I'm tired, had hardly any sleep and I'm rambling -.- But I found a song, a love song, that makes me think of daemons. I don't usually listen to this kind of music but it came on tv and I had to listen to it after I thought of Cal

It’s a little bit funny this feeling inside
I’m not one of those who can easily hide
I don’t have much money but boy if I did
I’d buy a big house where we both could live

If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a traveling show
I know it’s not much but it’s the best I can do
My gift is my song and this one’s for you

And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it’s done
I hope you don’t mind
I hope you don’t mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you’re in the world

I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses well they’ve got me quite cross
But the sun’s been quite kind while I wrote this song
It’s for people like you that keep it turned on

So excuse me forgetting but these things I do
You see I’ve forgotten if they’re green or they’re blue
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I’ve ever seen
