HIM-Our Diabolikal Rapture

cat's in the cradle - by harry chapin.

its sad because it's true ..

so many fathers out trying to become super corporate-boy because they dig the 'perceived power'
only to find 20 years later that they missed out on their kids childhood and the kid doesnt give a shit anymore.

and when you are a retired nobody - who's gonna be there for you ?

Type o negative bloody kisses, yet so sad yet so awesome.

Not long ago but far away
A rainy winter’s day
All her pain she kept inside
Could no longer hide
No cry for help
She killed herself
Both life & love could not be saved
She took them both to the grave

A pair of souls become undone
Where were two now one
Devided by this wall of death
I soon will join you yet
With my blood I’ll find your love
You found the strength to end you life
As you did so shall i

Oh no
Please don’t go
It’s like a death in the family

A crimson pool so warm & deep
Lulls me to an endless sleep
Your hand in mine - I will be brave
Take me from this earth
An endless night - this, the end of my life
From the dark I feel your lips
And I taste your bloody kiss

Oh no
Please don’t go
It’s like a death in the family

Don’t die on me

nin - and all that could have been
kansas - dust in the wind

Ok, aside from what the "meaning" may or may not have actually been, as a CHILD, before I ever considered anything other than the obvious side of the lyrical content, "Puff the magic Dragon", specifically the end made me kinda sad.

"A dragon lives forever,
But not little girls and boys.
Painted wings and giant rings
Make way for other toys.
One grey night it happened,
Jackie Paper came no more
And Puff that mighty dragon,
He ceased his fearless roar.
His head now bent in sorrow,
Green scales fell like rain,
And Puff no longer went to play
Along that cheery lane.
Without his life-long friend,
He could not be brave,
So Puff that mighty dragon
Sadly slipped into his cave"

- Kinda suckful ending for a cool song...I remember thinking about it a bit as a young child, maybe 4 or 5, and to me, apart from the sad end to the story, about as "deep" as it got was me thinking it was just about the death of stuff being special...it was kinda depressing.

Nowdays, nothing...I'll pick up sadness IN songs, but I am not longer saddened by anything musical

you should see some of the kids books we end up with ...
they make you want to bawl while you're reading them to your kid ..

one in particular called 'i'll love you forever'
another one called 'the giving tree'


and yeah .. they are all about loss.

Angel's Wings by Social D

~~How many times have you asked yourself, "is this the hand of fate now that I've been dealt?" You're so disillusioned, this can't be real. And you can't stand now the way you feel.

And when you're down on your luck, hey baby it's a long, long way up...hold back now, hold back your fears. And when you're really down and out, and you feel like there's no way out now, let go now, let go of your tears some more.

And now my biggest challenge, a thing called love. I guess I'm not as tough as I thought I was.

I don't care about what they say, I'm gonna marry you some day. Go ahead and wake up, it's a brand new day. Angel's wings gonna carry us away.~~

Kinda make's me sad and happy all the same.
