Lid or LID may refer to:

Land
Lid (container)
A lid, also known as a cap, is part of a container, and serves as the cover or seal, usually one that completely closes the object. A lid is often a type of closure.
History
Lids have been found on pottery dating back as far as 3100 BC. Ancient Egyptian canopic jars with lids held the organs of mummified bodies as early as 2686 BC. The coffee lid market is valued at roughly $180 million. An estimated 14 billion lids were sold in 2009 in the United States.
Some containers such as tubs or jars now have a plastic film heat sealed onto the container: this is often called a lidding film.
Cultural references
The word is used metaphorically, as in "keeping the lid on the secret" and "flipped his lid".
An old saying that you never have to put a lid on a bucket of crabs (because when one gets near the top, another will inevitably pull it down) is often used as a metaphor for group situations where an individual feels held back by others.
An old Yiddish saying, that "every pot will find its lid" refers to people finding an appropriate match in marriage.

For All My Life
by: LidWe started this together
So many years ago
Haven't seen you for a long, long time
How was I to know
It wasn't getting better
And there is no blame
Now I feel oh so sad
Cause things are not the same I've been waiting, waiting
for the sun
For all my life
All I ever wanted was to be with you
For all my life
Hope you know I'm so in love with you I'll love you all
forever
And all my tears I'll cry
Hope you will forgive me
But you know I had to try
For all my life
All I ever wanted was to be with you
For all my life
