You were chained to a girl that would kill you with a look
It's a nice way to die she's so easy on the eye

From a scale of 1 to 10? I'd say....8! That's one heck of a witty couplet. =]

I like it, it's simple and yet meaningful at the same time (:
Cos someones gonna save you at the end of the day
So it don’t really matter who you pray to anyway
Cos God and Buddha and Alla are tired of proving what they’re worth
I think we all just missed the point but heaven is actually here on earth

they are alright, a tad cliche, but cute.
've been swallowed by this wreck that you call your life.
I'm damaged from the inside. I've been broken.
Don't threaten me with what you think I feel.
If you could read my mind you'd be in tears.

6/10, mostly because it's angsty and depressing. The last line redeems it.
While Jesus is saving I'm spending all my grace
on the rosy-red pallor of lights on center stage
While people have cheered on the awful mess we've made
through storms of red roses we've exited the stage

And if I lived a thousand years,
You know I never could have explained,
The way I lost my heart to you .. that day,
And if destiny decided that I should look the other way,
Then the world would never know,
The Greatest Story Ever Told,
And did I tell you .. that I love you tonight

10/10!! Well, you only pasted a short part, but I'm singing this song for my school's Music coursework. :D
I will not go down with this ship,
I won't put my hands up and surrender,
There will be no white flag above my door,
I'm in love, and always will be.
White Flag by Dido
I think that's the correct chorus, LOL.

If I die and go to hell real soon,
it will appear to me as this room.
And for eternity I'd lay in bed
in my boxers, half stoned,
with the pillow under my head.
I'd be chatting on the interweb;
maggots pray upon the living dead.
I had no interest in the things she said.
On the phone every day,
I'll permanently hit the hay hay. |

xDD It amused me, so 9/10. It's just weird and great.

And what if I'm a weeping willow
Laughing tears upon my pillow
What if I'm a socialite who wants to be alone
What if I'm a toothless leopard
What if I'm a sheepless shepherd
What if I'm an angel without wings to take me home
You don't know me
Never will, never will
I'm outside your picture frame
And the glass is breaking now
You can't see me
Never will, never will
If you're never gonna see
What if I'm a crowded desert
Too much pain with little pleasure
What if I'm the nicest place you never want to go
What if I don't know who I am
Will that keep us both from trying
To find out and when you have
Be sure to let me know |

9/10. And I have always thought Emilie Autumn was an excellent music artist. :D

For I am finding out that love will kill and save me
Taking the dreams that made me up
And tearing them away
But the same love will take this heart that's barely beating
And fill it with hope beyond the stars
Only love |

annie's tired of forgetting about today and always planning for tomorrow (tomorrow)
annie says "the saddest day i came acrosss was when i learned that life goes on without me" (without me)
annie says "if everyone has someone else, then i ain't got nobody's love to save me" (save me)
annie says "i think i'll pass away tonight, because it seems i'll never get it right if it's just me" (just me)
and when you wake up
everything is going to be fine
i guarantee that you wake up in a better place
and in a better time
so you're tired of living
and you feel like you might give in
well don't
it's not your time
annie says she wouldn't mind if they never find a cure for all her problems (her problems)
annie says as long as she has someone near to make it clear she does not need to solve them (solve them)
"oh, this loneliness is killing me
it's filling me with anger and resentment (resentment)
i'm turning into someone that i never thought i'd have to be again" |

7/10. I like them, how the lyrics are structured almost like a narrative.

If a song could be president
We could all add another verse
Life would teach us to rehearse
Till we found a key change
Break out of this minor key
Half-truths and hypocrisy
We wouldn’t need an underachiever-in-chief
If a song could be president

Ooo, love them. Never heard of the song, but the lyrics are fab <3 9/10

She's got perfect reasons
Says she loves to talk to Jesus
I think I believe her when she says
Life can be so simple if we'd all just learn to pray
She's got every little thing I wanted
And it still feels just like the day it started
I'll say goodbye to the broken-hearted
And I could never express the way I felt before tonight |

7.5/10; they're cute but the concept of the last line is a little unoriginal... I don't think I'm making any sense...
I dress up bright tonight and needing the beat
Dance into the speakers and max up the volume
Feel so high tonight and moved by my feet
My heart in the speakers is loving the volume.

And now I know
Spanish Harlem are not just pretty words to say
I thought I knew
But now I know that rose trees never grow in New York City
Until you've seen this trash can dream come true
You stand at the edge while people run you through
And I thank the Lord there's people out there like you
I thank the Lord there's people out there like you
While Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters
Sons of bankers, sons of lawyers
Turn around and say good morning to the night
For unless they see the sky
But they can't and that is why
They know not if it's dark outside or light |

You do your dating on the internet
Hook up with someone you could easily forget
He’s never learnt about etiquette
And if it rains you just get wet
No-one’s got the time
For anything other than the bump and grind
Lately they’ve done something funny to love |

There is this thing that's like touching except you don't touch
Back in the day it just went without saying at all
All the world's history gradually dying of shock
There is this thing it's like talking except you don't talk
