Pink Floyd's lyrics are deep as can be. Most of their albums have an entire plot that each song spells out. Pure artistry.

Pale in the flare light The scared light cracks and disappears And leads the scorched ones here And everywhere no one cares The fire is spreading And no one wants to speak about it Down in the hole Jesus tries to crack a smile Beneath another shovel load Cause I heard it in the wind, and I saw it in the sky, and I thought it was the end, and I thought it was the 4th of July -Soundgarden, 4th of July.

You could pick a lot of Pink Floyd songs. Wish You Were Here and Comfortably Numb have some deep lyrics as well.

The phone don't ring And the sun refused to shine Never thought I'd have to pay so dearly For what was already mine For such a long, long time We made mad love Shadow love Random love And abandoned love Accidentally like a martyr zevon

I'll be the weeping willow drowning in my tears You can go swimming when you're here And I'll be the rainbow after the tears are gone Wrap you in my colors and keep you warm otis, that's how strong my love is I cut my teeth on the stone of a teenage romance I was the salt of the earth, I was hard, and the last of the independents And in the breath from my chest I was blowing kerosene My lips and fingertips were stone, I wore my heart on my jeans I sang the blues like the dogs left too long in the street I still sing the blues with the dogs gaslight, wherefore art thou, elvis

Well I'm finding it harder to be a gentleman every day all the manner that I've been taught have slowly died away but if I held the door open for you It would make your day You think that I care about me and only me when every little girl needs help climbing up a tree well I know it don't take much to satisfy me Maybe it's whatever's in my mind that's distracting me but if i could find emotion to stimulate devotion well then you'd see Well I'm finding it hard to say that I need you twenty times a day I feel comfortable so baby why don't you feel the same? have a doctor come and visit us and tell us which one is sane Well I never said I wouldn't Throw my jacket in the mud for you but my father gave it to me so maybe I should carry you then you said "You almost dropped me" so then I did and I got mud on my shoes

She warned once about her luck Put out her match with a tear She said I'm bored to death and born to, Look, you want way the hell away from here He said you don't look that tough to me Leaned and lit a cigarette How 'bout you wait and see just what you regret Until we get what we get cory branan, survivor blues My mother was dead by the time i was born In the black of my eyes the gypsy nurse warned She could already see my path torn between the sun and the moon So i walked it and i walked it straight Until i passed through so many a gate That not even the blame and the hate of my father could follow branan, whiskey grove

I got love for my brother, but we can never go nowhere unless we share with each other. We gotta start makin' changes. Learn to see me as a brother 'stead of 2 distant strangers. And that's how it's supposed to be. How can the Devil take a brother if he's close to me? I'd love to go back to when we played as kids but things changed, and that's the way it is I see no changes. All I see is racist faces. Misplaced hate makes disgrace to races we under. I wonder what it takes to make this one better place... let's erase the wasted. Take the evil out the people, they'll be acting right. 'Cause both black and white are smokin' crack tonight. And only time we chill is when we kill each other. It takes skill to be real, time to heal each other. And although it seems heaven sent, we ain't ready to see a black President, uhh. It ain't a secret don't conceal the fact... the penitentiary's packed, and it's filled with blacks. But some things will never change. Try to show another way, but they stayin' in the dope game. Now tell me what's a mother to do? Bein' real don't appeal to the brother in you. You gotta operate the easy way. "I made a G today" But you made it in a sleazy way. Sellin' crack to the kids. "I gotta get paid," Well hey, well that's the way it is.

One of my all time favorite lyrics to any song:
quote:
I've got a little black book with my poems in. Got a bag with a toothbrush and a comb in. When I'm a good dog, they sometimes throw me a bone in. I got elastic bands keepin my shoes on. Got those swollen hand blues. I got thirteen channels of shite on the T.V. to choose from. I've got electric light. And I've got second sight. I got amazing powers of observation. And that is how I know When I try to get through On the telephone to you There'll be nobody home. I've got the obligatory Hendrix perm. And the inevitable pinhole burns All down the front of my favorite satin shirt. I've got nicotine stains on my fingers. I've got a silver spoon on a chain. I've got a grand piano to prop up my mortal remains. I've got wild staring eyes. And I've got a strong urge to fly. But I got nowhere to fly to. Ooooh, babe when I pick up the phone "Surprise, surprise, surprise..." There's still nobody home. I've got a pair of Gohills boots But I got fading roots.
RHCP has some great lyrics as well:
quote:
My mouth fell open Hoping that the truth Would not be true Refuse the news I'm feeling sick now What the frick am I Supposed to do Just lose and lose First time I saw you You were sitting Backstage in a dress A perfect mess You never knew this But I wanted badly for you to Requite my love Left on the floor Leaving your body When highs are the lows And lows are the way So hard to stay Guess now you know I love you so I liked your whiskers And I liked the Dimple in your chin Your pale blue eyes You painted pictures Cause the one Who hurts Can give so much You gave me such
quote:
I'm an ocean in your bedroom Make you feel warm Make you wanna re-assume Now, we know it all for sure I'm a dance hall Dirty break beat Make the snow fall Up from underneath your feet Not alone, I'll be there Tell me when you wanna go I'm a meth lab, first rehab Take it all off And step inside the running cab There's a love that knows the way I'm the rainbow In your jail cell All the memories of Everything you've ever smelled Not alone, I'll be there Tell me when you want to go Sideways falling, more will be revealed my friend Don't forget me, I can't hide it Come again, get me excited I'm an inbred and a pothead Two legs that you spread Inside the tool shed Now, we know it all for sure I could show you To the free field Overcome and more Will always be revealed Not alone, I'll be there Tell me when you wanna go Sideways falling, more will be revealed my friend Don't forget me, I can't hide it) Come again, get me excited I'm the bloodstain On your shirt sleeve Coming down and more are coming to believe Now, we know it all for sure Make the hair stand Up on your arm Teach you how to dance Inside the funny farm Not alone, I'll be there Tell me when you wanna go I'll be there but Tell me when you wanna go Come again and Tell me when you wanna go More will be revealed my friend

If I could throw this Lifeless lifeline to the wind I'd leave this heart of clay See you walk, walk away Into the night Through the rain Into the half-light Through the flame If I could through myself Set your spirit free I'd lead your heart away See you break, break away Into the light And to the day Bad, u2
