What song reminds you of Lex?

[Kerryann]

I just found a new song by Three Doors Down for Lex... It's called "Away From the Sun"... It's a great song for the now institutionalized Lex..

It's down to this
I've got to make this life make sense
Can anyone do what I've done
I missed life
I missed the colours of the world
Can anyone go where I am

'Cause now again I've found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines into the darkest place
I'm so far down, away from the sun again
Away from the sun again

I'm over this
I'm tired of living in the dark
Can anyone see me down here
The feeling's gone
There's nothing left to lift me up
Back into the world I've known

'Cause now again I've found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines into the darkest place
I'm so far down, away from the sun
That shines the life away from me
To find my way back into the arms
That care about the ones like me
I'm so far down, away from the sun again

It's down to this
I've got to make this life make sense
And now I can't do what I've done

And now again I've found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines the life away from me

'Cause now again I've found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines into the darkest place
I'm so far down, away from the sun
That shines the life away from me
To find my way back into the arms
That care about the ones like me
I'm so far down, away from the sun again


There it is...

I really like this thread, alot of the songs Ive never heard but the lyrics fit lex perfectly.

what do i have to do descibes lex feelings towards lionel (and maybe johnathan) wonderfully imo.

"im too sexy" is by Right Said Fred, and ironically the front man was bald! hehe.

I think Robbie Williams' Eternity would be good, don't know why (im not even a big robbie fan) i guess its what Id say to him were I ficticious (or him, real)

'Outside' by Staind

"And you,
You bring me to my knees
Again
All the times
That I could beg you please
In vain
All the times
That I felt insecure
For you
But I leave
My burdens at the door

But I'm on the outside
And I'm looking in
I can see through you
See your true colors
'Cause inside your ugly
Your ugly like me
I can see through you
See to the real you

All the times
That I felt like this won't end
it's for you
And I taste
What I could never have
It was from you
All the times
That I've tried
My intentions
Full of pride
But I waste
More time than anyone

But I'm on the outside
And I'm looking in
I can see through you
See your true colors
'Cause inside your ugly
Your ugly like me
I can see through you
See to the real you

All the times
That I've cried
All this wasted
It's all inside
And I feel
All this pain
Stuffed it down
It's back again
And I lie
Here in bed
All alone
I can't mend
But I feel
Tomorrow will be OK

But I'm on the outside
And I'm looking in
I can see through you
See your true colors
'Cause inside your ugly
Your ugly like me
I can see through you
See to the real you"

ALSO 'It's been awhile'
esp. the last lines:

"And everything I can't remember
As f@#$% up as it all may seem to be
I know it's me
I cannot blame this on my father
He did the best he could for me"

--

That's probably the truth he's afraid to face - that the choices he makes now as an adult are his own.

I think staind Its been awile

[Atana]

I'm with the person who voted for Linkin Park's NUMB.

It' epitomizes his relationship with Lionel to me.

How about Sexy Boy by Air

English translation:

Where are your heroes with bodies like athletes
Where are your rough shaven, well dressed idols
Sexy Boy Sexy Boy
Dollars in their eyes
Diamonds in their smiles
One day I too will be beautiful like a god
Sexy Boy Sexy Boy
Apollo, perfect x 2000, 21 years old
The ideal man, masculine charm
Sexy Boy Sexy Boy



And It Takes All Kinds by Aimee Mann

As we were speaking of the devil
you walked right in
wearing hubris like a medal
you revel in
but it's me at whom you'll level
your javelin

Wasn't that just our dear friend Ron?
Throwing your weight around the sun
happier now that you've become
what you hated

I'm surprised I even thought I
had half a chance
I was just one in a million
of also-rans
who was sure to be your victim
of circumstance

Once you were just our dear friend Ron
selling the soul you swore upon
spreading the word that you've become
what you hated

And if I don't understand...
well, I guess it takes all kinds

I would like to keep this vision
of you intact--
when we'd hang around and listen
to Bacharach
and you loved the world you lived in
and it loved you back

Once you were just our dear friend Ron
now you look out for number one
who would've guessed that you'd become
what you hated

And I guess it takes all kinds




And then there's Falling To Pieces by Faith No More


Back and forth, I sway with the wind
Resolution slips away again
Right through my fingers, back into my heart
Where it's out of reach and it's in the dark
Sometimes I think I'm blind
Or I may be just paralyzed
Because the plot thickens every day
And the pieces of my puzzle keep crumblin' away
But I know, there's a picture beneath
Indecision clouds my vision
No one listens....
Because I'm somewhere in between
My love and my agony
You see, I'm somewhere in between
My life is falling to pieces
Somebody put me together
Layin' face down on the ground
My fingers in my ears to block the sound
My eyes shut tight to avoid the sign
Anticipating the end, losing the will to fight
Droplets of "yes" and "no"
In an ocean of "maybe"
From the bottom, it looks like a steep incline
From the top, another downhill slope of mine
But I know, the equilibrium's there
Indecision clouds my vision
No one listens
Because I'm somewhere in between
My love and my agony
You see, I'm somewhere in between
My life is falling to pieces
Somebody put me together

I'm having a musical kind of day

A little Lex music

The following two songs remind me of Lex.

VNV Nation - Epicentre

I asked myself "was I content,"
with the world that I once cherished?
did it bring me to this darkened place
to comtemplate my perfect future
I will not stand nor utter words against
this tide of hate
losing site of what and who I was again

I'm so sorry if these seething words I say
impress on you
that I've become the anathema of my soul

I can't say that your losing me
I always tried to keep myself tied to this world
but I know where this is leading me
no tears
no sympathy

I can't say that your losing me
but I must be that which I am
though I know where this could take me
no tears
no sympathy

gracefully
respectfully
facing conflict deep inside myself
but here confined
losing control of what I could not change

gracefully
respectfully
I ask you "Please don't worry,"
not for me
don't turn your back
don't turn away


Covenant - Still Life

The muffled beat of distant music, someone celebrates
It's hunting season urbanised, I wish I could be there
Warmth and laughter, the right amount of danger
Johnnie Walker wisdom as Cohen used to say

But it's pouring down with rain
Do you remember?
Are you alive?
Do you still speak of deeds undone?
But it's pouring down with rain
Do you remember?
Are you alive?
Do you still speak of deeds undone?

I used to be immortal, I was innocent as a child
my vision was unlimited, I saw rivers on the Moon
I had important things to say, can't remember what they were
Of all the things I did, none had been done before

But achievements never last
Do you recall?
Do you dream?
Do you still need company?
But achievements never last
Do you recall?
Do you dream?
Do you still need company?

I had a friend who knew the language of the future
I'm told he lost his mind, they say he went away
Navigating empty streets astray among the lost
A shadow in the corner of a stranger's eye

But there's nothing left to learn
Do you count the years?
Do you breathe?
Do you still watch the sunrise?
But there's nothing left to learn
Do you count the years?
Do you breathe?
Do you still watch the sunrise?

My ambition took me further than I dreamt
I don't even need a mirror anymore
The penthouse pool is full of ice
It should be flowers, winter came too soon

But you never liked to swim
Do you feel safe?
Are you happy?
Do you still know my name?
But you never liked to swim
Do you feel safe?
Are you happy?
Do you still know my name?

later

How You Remind Me by Nickelback

Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealin'
Tired of livin' like a blind man
I'm sick of sight without a sense of feeling

This is how you remind me
this is how you remind me of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry, I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken for handing you a heart worth breaking
I've been wrong, I've been down, been to the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head scream "Are we havin' fun yet?"

It's not like you didn't know that
I said I love you and I swear I still do
And it must have been so bad
Cause livin' with me must have damn near killed you

This is how you remind me of what I really am
This is how you remind me of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry, I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken for handing you a heart worth breaking
I've been wrong, I've been down, been to the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head scream "Are we havin' fun yet?"

Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealin'

This is how you remind me
This is how you remind me of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry, I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken for handing you a heart worth breaking
I've been wrong, I've been down, been to the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head scream "Are we havin' fun yet?"

This song reminds me of Lex and his twisted father-son relationship with Lionel.

[Psyphun]

When I see Lex, the first song that comes to mind is Sympathy For The Devil by The Rolling Stones. Not the Stones version, but the version that Andy Taylor did many years ago.



Sympathy For The Devil (Jagger/Richards)


Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long long year stolen many man's soul and faith
I was around when Jesus Christ had His moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Pilate washed his hands and sealed His fate
Pleased to meet you hope you guess my name
But what's puzzling you is the nature of my game

Stuck around St. Petersburg when I saw it was a time for a change
Killed the Tzar and his ministers, Anastasia screamed in vain
I rode a tank held a gen'rals rank when the blitzkrieg
raged and the bodies stank
Pleased to meet you hope you guess my name. Oh yeah
Ah what's puzzling you is the nature of my game. Oh yeah

I watched the glee while your kings and queens fought for
ten decades for the Gods they made
I shouted out "Who killed the Kennedy's?" when after all
it was you and me
Let me please intruduce myself I'm a man of wealth and taste
And I lay traps for troubadors who get killed before they reach Bombay
Pleased to meet you hope you guess my name. Oh yeah
But what's puzzling you is the nature of my game. Oh yeah
Pleased to meet you hope you guess my name
But what's puzzling you is the nature of my game

Just as every cop is a criminal and all the sinners, Saints
as heads is tails, just call me Lucifer 'cause I'm in need
of some restraint
So if you meet me, have some courtesy have some sympathy
and some taste
Use all your well learned politesse or I'll lay your soul to waste
Pleased to meet you hope you guess my name
But what's puzzling you is the nature of my game

[Lex'sHairpiece]

Mine All Mine - Van Halen

Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned
I've been through Hell and back again
I shook hands with the devil, looked him in the eye
Looked like a long lost friend
Anything you want, any dirty deeds
He's got everything except what I really need
Keepin' me temporarily satisfied
But not one thing I've tried
Filled me up inside or felt like mine
Mine all mine

The search goes on; the more I look,
My world keeps gettin' smaller
Staring at the sun, searchin' for the light
Almost ended up blind
Some only see what they wanna see
Claiming victory, but that's not me
Give me truth, give me something real
I just wanna feel like it's mine all mine

All the words on the wall look the same in the mirror
Every riddle and every clue
You've got Allah in the east, you've got Jesus in the west
Christ, what's a man to do?

They'll find a cure for anything
Just kill the pain or numb my brain
We see a man speaking the word of God
Proving to be a fraud, but his own church applauds
Stop looking out, start looking in
Be your own best friend
Stand up and say "Hey! This is mine!"

Mine, all mine.
