"Immortals" by Fall Out Boy https://youtu.be/jBiQCZd8UII

They say we are what we are But we don't have to be. I'm bad behavior but I do it in the best way. I'll be the watcher (watcher) of the eternal flame. I'll be the guard dog of all your fever dreams.

Oooooooh I am the sand in the bottom half of the hourglass (glass, glass) I try to picture me without you but I can't

'Cause we could be immortals, immortals Just not for long, for long. And live with me forever now, You pull the blackout curtains down Just not for long, for long.

We could be immortals, immortals

Sometimes the only pay-off for having any faith Is when it's tested again and again everyday. I'm still comparing your past to my future. It might be your wound but they're my sutures.

I am the sand in the bottom half of the hourglass (glass, glass) I try to picture me without you but I can't

'Cause we could be immortals, immortals Just not for long, for long. And live with me forever now, You pull the blackout curtains down Just not for long, for long.

We could be immortals, immortals

Immortals And live with me forever now, Pull the blackout curtains down,

We could be immortals, immortals Just not for long, for long. We could be immooooooo- immortals, Immortals

"Alive" by Escape The Fate https://youtu.be/87ZV6VH46c8

Locked up I'm held so tight, this place is dark and dirty I've been here too many times, my private purgatory Cry out but no one answers, silence consumes my mind Another morning after a truth I can't deny (a truth I can't deny)

When the stars are falling, and worlds collide You feel like you won't survive I'm bruised and broken, but I'm hanging on As long as I am alive

You say I'm so deluded, you say that I am blind You say that I will never seek nor will I find I say you'll never know me, you are no friend of mine I'm gonna fuck you up and set your world on fire

When the stars are falling, and worlds collide And you feel like you won't survive I'm bruised and broken, but I'm hanging on As long as I am alive

Stars are falling, and worlds collide And you feel like you won't survive I'm bruised and broken, but I'm hanging on As long as I am alive

When the stars are falling, and worlds collide You feel like you won't survive (feel like you won't survive) I'm bruised and broken, but I'm hanging on As long as I am alive

"Bottom Of The River" By Delta Rae https://youtu.be/bimam2j2gEg

Hold my hand Ooh, baby, it's a long way down to the bottom of the river Hold my hand, Ooh, baby, it's a long way down, a long way down

If you get sleep or if you get none (The cock's gonna call in the morning, baby) Check the cupboard for your daddy's gun (Red sun rises like an early warning) The Lord's gonna come for your first born son (His hair's on fire and his heart is burning) Go to the river where the water runs (Wash him deep where the tides are turning)

And if you fall.... And if you fall....

Hold my hand Ooh, baby, it's a long way down to the bottom of the river Hold my hand, Ooh, baby, it's a long way down, a long way down

The wolves will chase you by the pale moonlight (Drunk and driven by a devil's hunger) Drive your son like a railroad spike (Into the water, let it pull him under) Don't you lift him, let him drown alive (The good Lord speaks like a rolling thunder) Let that fever make the water rise (And let the river run dry)

And I said

Hold my hand Ooh, baby, it's a long way down to the bottom of the river Hold my hand, Ooh, baby, it's a long way down, a long way down Hold my hand Ooh, baby, it's a long way, a long long long way Hold my hand Ooh, baby, it's a long way down, a long way down

~"Animal" by Badflower https://www.youtube.com/watch"v=_GipmdQMeFQ

You animal, you ungrateful You cannibal, eat my soul Impossible way to love you

Incredible love I show Unstoppable situation Decided by my control Illusion, you feed me fiction I'm still beggin' you, please don't go

??"

Like antifreeze, kill me sweetly You chemical, break me down My albatross always with me You, my cynical siren song You animal got your prey now You're ravenous, time to feed Keep using your words to cut me I'm your masochist make me bleed

Claw at my walls and I come when you cry Oh no, no, you're never gonna love me Lickin your chops and you howl with your eyes Oh no, no, you're just like an animal I love you I need you I want to

My animal on your leash now Teeth tearing my skin apart The pain that you give becomes me Break my heart Chimera, you show no mercy So savage, you're breathin fire You vicious, enchanting monster Fill my veins with cruel desire

Claw at my walls and I come when you cry Oh no, no you're never gonna love me You're lickin your chops and you howl with your eyes Oh no, no you're just like an animal There's blood on your tongue when you kiss me goodbye Oh no, no, you're just like an animal I love you I need you I want to

No! No! No! You're never gonna love me You're lickin your chops and you howl with your eyes Oh no, no you're just like an animal There's blood on your tongue when you kiss me goodbye oh no, no you're just like an animal I love you I need you I want to Stop

"The Kill" ~ Thirty Seconds to Mars https://youtu.be/8yvGCAvOAfM

What if I wanted to break Laugh it all off in your face What would you do" What if I fell to the floor Couldn't take all this anymore What would you do, do, do"

Come, break me down Bury me, bury me I am finished with you

What if I wanted to fight Beg for the rest of my life What would you do" You say you wanted more What are you waiting for" I'm not running from you

Come, break me down Bury me, bury me I am finished with you Look in my eyes You're killing me, killing me All I wanted was you

I tried to be someone else But nothing seemed to change I know now, this is who I really am inside I've finally found myself Fighting for a chance I know now, this is who I really am

Come, break me down Bury me, bury me I am finished with you, you, you Look in my eyes You're killing me, killing me All I wanted was you Come, break me down Break me down Break me down

What if I wanted to break What if I, what if I, what if I (bury me, bury me) Written by Jared Leto " Copyright " Universal Music Publishing Group

"Still Here" by Digital Daggers https://youtu.be/LD9RqOevOpw

Musing through memories, Losing my grip in the grey. Numbing the senses, I feel you slipping away. Fighting to hold on, Clinging to just one more day Love turns to ashes, With all that I wish I could say.

I'd die to be where you are. I tried to be where you are.

Every night, I dream you're still here. The ghost by my side, so perfectly clear. When I awake, you'll disappear, Back to the shadows With all I hold dear. With all I hold dear. I dream you're still here. I dream you're still here.

Hidden companion Phantom be still in my heart Make me a promise that Time won't erase us That we were not lost from the start.

I'd die to be where you are I tried to be where you are

I dream you're still here, Ever slightly out of reach. I dream you're still here, But it breaks so easily. I try to protect you, I can't let you fade.

I feel you slipping. I feel you slipping away.

I dream you're still here (Every night I dream you're still...) (Every night I dream you're still here) I dream you're still here (Every night I dream you're still...) (Every night I dream you're still here) Ever slightly out of reach.

I dream you're still here (Every night I dream you're still...) (Every night I dream you're still here) But it breaks so easily.

"Copycat" by The Cranberries https://youtu.be/SdBv55dvnOo

((Ah, this one does bring back memories and is so very true for today. Fashions do circle around as do trends and so much more. Saw some out in the real world, just the other night all dressed retro late 60's early 70's. That whole paisley and wild color theme and had me thinking. I was a toddler back then, but honestly, that fashion recycling boggles my mind.))

"Monster" ~ Starset https://youtu.be/NqmjBSurfWY

Under the knife I surrendered The innocence yours to consume You cut it away And you filled me up with hate Into the silence you sent me Into the fire consumed You thought I'd forget But it's always in my head

You're the pulse in my veins You're the war that I wage Can you change me" Can you change me" You're the love that I hate You're the drug that I take Will you cage me" Will you cage me" You're the pulse in my veins You're the war that I wage Can you change me" Can you change me" From the monster you made me" The monster you made me"

This is the world you've created The product of what I've become My soul and my youth Seems it's all for you to use If I could take back the moment I'd let you get under my skin Relent or resist" Seems the monster always wins

You're the pulse in my veins You're the war that I wage Can you change me" Can you change me" You're the love that I hate You're the drug that I take Will you cage me" Will you cage me" You're the pulse in my veins You're the war that I wage Can you change me" Can you change me" From the monster you made me" The monster you made me"

My heart's an artifice, a decoy soul I lift you up and then I let you go I've made an art of digging shallow holes I'll drop the darkness in and watch it grow My heart's an artifice, a decoy soul Who knew the emptiness could be so cold" I've lost the parts of me that make me whole I am the darkness I'm a monster

You're the pulse in my veins You're the war that I wage Can you change me" Can you change me" You're the love that I hate You're the drug that I take Will you cage me" Will you cage me" You're the pulse in my veins You're the war that I wage Can you change me" Can you change me" From the monster you made me" The monster you made me" The monster you made me" The monster you made me"

"Psycho" ~ The Johner Boys https://youtu.be/Hws7KERMcbQ (Domi's dedication to his ex, Felicity.)

Down, down, down we go Hell exists ya put me further below We've gone too far Forever we are Now I wish you'd leave me be

Your fine as a summers day but your heart's as cold as winter You melt me with your touch Enough your makin' me shiver

I wanted to give you this shot I'm not gonna lie I'd shed a tear Cause you would blowin smoke in my eyes

What did you do with the you I knew" What did you do with the you I knew"

Somebody Help me You got me tied up in these steely chains You gotta release me before I go insane With sticks and stones you try to break my bones If I get out the world will know My Ex is a Psycho!

I figured it out that you and me were everything We'd ever be

I wanted to love I needed to breath And die for you to set me free

Oh! I pray to god to keep the crazy out of my mind I tell you I needed to break it up But then to stab me in the back is your sinning

What did you do with the you I knew" What did you do with the you I knew"

Somebody Help me You got me tied up in these steely chains You gotta release me before I go insane With sticks and stones you try to break my bones If I get out the world will know My Ex is a Psycho!

You got me tied up with these steely chains You gotta release me before I go insane With sticks and stones you try to break my bones If I get out the world will know My Ex is a Psycho!

"The Lovecats" By The Cure https://youtu.be/OylJq6L-Wd0

We move like cagey tigers We couldn't get closer than this The way we walk The way we talk The way we stalk The way we kiss We slip through the streets While everyone sleeps Getting bigger and sleeker And wider and brighter We bite and scratch and scream all night Let's go and throw All the songs we know

Into the sea You and me All these years and no one heard I'll show you in spring It's a treacherous thing We missed you hissed the lovecats We missed you hissed the lovecats

We're so wonderfully wonderfully wonderfully Wonderfully pretty! Oh you know that I'd do anything for you We should have each other to tea huh" We should have each other with cream Then curl up by the fire And sleep for awhile It's the grooviest thing It's the perfect dream

Into the sea You and me All these years and no one heard I'll show you in spring It's a treacherous thing We missed you hissed the lovecats We missed you hissed the lovecats We missed you hissed the lovecats We missed you hissed the lovecats

We're so wonderfully wonderfully wonderfully Wonderfully pretty! You know that I'd do anything for you We should have each other to dinner We should have each other with cream Then curl up in the fire Get up for awhile It's the grooviest thing It's the perfect dream

Hand in hand Is the only way to land And always the right way round Not broken in pieces Like hated little meeces How could we miss Someone as dumb as this"

I love you, let's go Oh, solid gone How could we miss Someone as dumb as this"

"Tainted Love" ~ Marilyn Manson https://www.youtube.com/watch"v=YaGoc3E9zFQ

Sometimes I feel I've got to Run away I've got to Get away from the pain you drive in the heart of me The love we share Seems to go nowhere And I've lost my light For I toss and turn I can't sleep at night

Once I ran to you (I ran) Now I run from you This tainted love you've given I'll give you all a boy could give you Take my tears and that's not nearly all Tainted love, oh Tainted love

Now I know I've got to Run away I've got to Get away You don't really want any more from me To make things right Need someone to hold you tight And you'll think love is to pray But I'm sorry I don't pray that way

Once I ran to you (I ran) Now I run from you This tainted love you've given I'll give you all a boy could give you Take my tears and that's not nearly all Tainted love, oh Tainted love

Don't touch me please I cannot stand the way you tease I love you though you hurt me so Now I'm going to pack my things and go

Touch me baby, tainted love Touch me baby, tainted love Touch me baby, tainted love Touch me baby, tainted love

Once I ran to you (I ran) Now I run from you This tainted love you've given I'll give you all a boy could give you Take my tears and that's not nearly all Tainted love, oh Tainted love, oh Tainted love, oh Tainted love, oh Copyright: Lyrics " Songwriters: E. Cobb

One for my Baby (And one more for the Road) by Frank Sinatra https://youtu.be/hkwdkUXQ1yo

It's quarter to three, There's no one in the place 'cept you and me So set 'em' up joe I got a little story I think you oughtta know

We're drinking my friend To the end of a brief episode So make it one for my baby And one more for the road

I know the routine Put another nickel in that there machine I'm feeling so bad Won't you make the music easy and sad

I could tell you a lot But you gotta to be true to your code So make it one for my baby And one more for the road

You'd never know it But buddy I'm a kind of poet And I've got a lot of things I want to say And when I'm gloomy, won't you listen to me Till it's all, all talked away

Well, that's how it goes And joe I know you're gettin' anxious to close So thanks for the cheer I hope you didn't mind My bending your ear

But this torch that I found It's gotta be drowned Or it soon might explode So make it one for my baby And one more for the road

No Roots - Alice Merton

I like digging holes and, hiding things inside them When I grow old, I hope I won't forget to find them Cause, I've got memories and travel like gypsies in the night

I build a home and wait for, someone to tear it down Then pack it up in boxes, head for the next town running Cause, I've got memories and travel like gypsies in the night

And a thousand times I've seen this road A thousand times

I've got no roots But my home, was never on the ground I've got no roots But my home, was never on the ground I've got no roots I've got no roots I've got no roots But my home, was never on the ground I've got no roots But my home, was never on the ground I've got no roots I've got no roots

I like standing still, but that's just a wishful plan Ask me where I come from, I'll say a different land But I've got memories and, travel like gypsies in the night

I count gates and numbers, then play the guessing game It's just the place that changes, the rest is still the same But I've got memories and, travel like gypsies in the night

And a thousand times I've seen this road A thousand times

I've got no roots But my home, was never on the ground I've got no roots But my home, was never on the ground I've got no roots I've got no roots I've got no roots But my home, was never on the ground I've got no roots But my home, was never on the ground I've got no roots I've got no roots

I like digging holes, hiding things inside them When I grow old, I won't forget to find them I like digging holes, hiding things inside them When I grow old, I won't forget to find them

I've got no roots! No roots!

I've got no roots But my home, was never on the ground I've got no roots But my home, was never on the ground I've got no roots I've got no roots I've got no roots But my home, was never on the ground I've got no roots But my home, was never on the ground I've got no roots I've got no roots

"Leave A Light On" by Tom Walker https://youtu.be/nqnkBdExjws

The second someone mentioned you were all alone I could feel the trouble coursing through your veins Now I know, it's got a hold Just a phone called left unanswered, had me sparking up These cigarettes won't stop me wondering where you are Don't let go, keep a hold

If you look into the distance, there's a house upon the hill Guiding like a lighthouse to a place where you'll be Safe to feel at grace 'cause we've all made mistakes If you've lost your way...

I will leave the light on I will leave the light on I will leave the light on I will leave the light on

Tell me what?s been happening, what?s been on your mind Lately you've been searching for a darker place To hide, that's alright But if you carry on abusing, you'll be robbed from us I refuse to lose another friend to drugs Just come home, don't let go

If you look into the distance, there's a house upon the hill Guiding like a lighthouse to a place where you'll be Safe to feel at grace 'cause we've all made mistakes If you've lost your way...

I will leave the light on I will leave the light on I will leave the light on I will leave the light on I will leave the light on

If you look into the distance, there's a house upon the hill Guiding like a lighthouse, it's a place where you'll be Safe to feel at grace and if you've lost your way If you've lost your way (I will leave the light on) And I know you don't know oh, but I need you to be brave Hiding from the truth ain't gonna make this all okay I'll see your pain if you don't feel our grace And you've lost your way I will leave the light on I will leave the light on 'Cause I will leave the light on

((A song for everyone, because all of us have our struggles and also for all of those we have lost and saved along the way.))

"Mouth for War" by Pantera https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3JSbOt7CLo

Revenge, I'm screaming revenge again Wrong, I've been wrong for far too long Been constantly so frustrated I've moved mountains with less When I channel my hate to productive I don't find it hard to impress

Bones in traction Hands break to hone raw energy Bold and disastrous My ears can't hear what you say to me

Hold your mouth for the war Use it for what it's for Speak the truth about me Determined

Possessed, I feel a conquering will down inside me Strength, the strength of many to crush who might stop me My strength is in number And my soul lies in every one The releasing of anger can better any medicine under the sun

Bones in traction Hands break to hone raw energy Bold and disastrous My ears can't hear what you say to me

Hold your mouth for the war Use it for what it's for Speak the truth about me Determined

There comes a time within everyone To close your eyes to what?s real

No comprehension to fail I vacuum the wind for my sail Can't be the rest Let others waste my time Owning success is the bottom line Like a knife into flesh After life is to death Pulling and punching the rest of duration No one can piss on this determination

Don't Change by INXS https://youtu.be/sLm3Khusq_8

I'm standing here on the ground The sky above won't fall down See no evil in all direction Resolution of happiness Things have been dark For too long

Don't change for you Don't change a thing for me

I found a love I had lost It was gone for too long Hear no evil in all directions Execution of bitterness Message received loud and clear

Don't change for you Don't change a thing for me

I'm standing here on the ground The sky above won't fall down See no evil in all directions Resolution of happiness Things have been dark for too long

Don't change for you Don't change a thing for me

Ahhh, the eighties hair! Crazy but in those days that was thought to be cool. I never did the big bow hair.

This was a group my sister introduced me to. That was a rare thing as from a early age I discovered many bands and passed on my love of music by sharing it (Forcing it to the minds of some) with others.

My sister took me to see this band on the "Riverboat". They were AWESOME! They are a group that does bring back memories of dancing with friends at "Deja Vu" and "Oz" many a night. My sister let me tag along and even though I wasn't legal for some places.(She knew the owners of these clubs.) It was the music that was always my siren's call and not underage drinking. Still is but I can find anything now on the internet. Yes, I still have a need to feed that addiction!

Home by Marc Broussard https://youtu.be/FuWPseegaKw

Rolling down the road Going no where Guitar packed in the trunk Somewhere round mile marker 112 Papa started hummin the funk I gotta jones in my bones before we know We were singing this melody Stop the car pulled out the guitar Halfway to New Orleans

Said take me home Take me home

Could feel the sun about to rise When I realized we had nothing to fear It's just me and my daddy and a kid named Cope Making music that nobody would hear And then the sun let up and it split the night Spilling over our jubilee Ten thousand cars by the side of the road Grooving far as the eye can see

Said take me home Take me home Said take me home Said take me home

This greyhound is delta bound mama Baby boy done finally found Said this greyhound is delta bound mama Baby boy done finally found his way home Said take me home

Hot damn you should have felt the groove Like I was swimming in a sea of soul The sun was rising and the day was hot And we was all about to lose control My daddy turned his face up towards the sky And I knew that there was nothing to lose I felt the crowd breathe in and I closed my eyes And we disappeared into the groove

Said take me home Said take me home Take me home Said take me home

Straight from the water Straight from the water children

You don't know nothing about this

Take me home Said take me home

Ain't That a Kick in the Head by Dean Martin https://youtu.be/97AxmxMnYXo

How lucky can one guy be I kissed her and she kissed me Like the fella once said Ain't that a kick in the head"

The room was completely black I hugged her and she hugged back Like the sailor said, quote "Ain't that a hole in the boat"

My head keeps spinning I go to sleep and keep grinning If this is just the beginning My life is gonna be beautiful

I've sunshine enough to spread It's just like the fella said Tell me quick ain't love like a kick in the head"

Like the fella once said Ain't love like a kick in the head"

Like the sailor said, quote "Ain't that a hole in the boat?"

My head keeps spinning I go to sleep and keep grinning If this is just the beginning My life is gonna be beautiful

"We Have It All"
by Pim Stones
https://youtu.be/IRJBu5F88ew

There was fire around us so I should have known why
The touch of his hands were as cold as his eyes
So don't you tell me we weren't hypnotised

The print was so small I didn't understand
He cut our thumbs and placed a feather in our hands
Told us we would see all our dreams and plans unfold

Our hearts we have sold
For diamonds and gold
But hey, baby, take a look
We have it all

All my life I've been heading for hell
But never had I thought I'd drag you down as well
I just couldn't resist what he was trying to sell

There's glory ahead but our love will be forgotten
If my heart was still mine I would go to the bottom
And apologise to you until the day it went rotten

But haven't you heard
Hearts turn to dirt
Along with the rest of your body
It's all claimed by the earth

It will fade and it will wither
But gold, it will never
And hey, baby, don't you know
Diamonds are forever

Hear me
Can you hear me
I am calling out to you for the last time

Our hearts we have sold
For diamonds and gold
But hey, baby, take a look
We have it all

And haven't you heard
Hearts turn to dirt
Along with the rest of your body
It's all claimed by the earth

Hear me
Can you hear me
I am begging from you for the last time

Hear me
Please forgive me
I am calling out to you for the last time

Happy Halloween my darlin's! Now, with the end of All Hallows, we welcome in the start of the Day of the Dead Celebrations for some, All Saints Day for others and lastly everything comes to an end with All Souls day. A time of memory for all those that have come before us. Peace to all and may your long lost loved ones bless you.

Living Dead Girl
By Rob Zombie
https://youtu.be/BvsMPOfblfg


"Who is this irresistible creature who has an insatiable love for the dead?"

Living Dead Girl!

"What are you thinking about"
What are you thinking about?"
"The same thing you are"

Rage in the cage
And piss upon the stage
There's only one sure way
To bring the giant down
Defunct the strings
Of cemetery things
With one flat foot
On the devil's wing

Crawl on me
Sink into me
Die for me
Living Dead Girl
Crawl on me
Sink into me
Die for me
Living Dead Girl

"What are you thinking about"
What are you thinking about?"
"The same thing you are"

Raping the geek
And hustling the freak
Like a hunchback juice
On a sentimental noose
Operation filth
They love to love the wealth
Of an SS whore
Making scary sounds

Crawl on me
Sink into me
Die for me
Living Dead Girl
Crawl on me
Sink into me
Die for me
Living Dead Girl

"What are you thinking about?"

Psyclone jack
Hallucinating hack
Thinks that Donna Reed
Eats dollar bills
Goldfoot's machine
Creates another fiend
So beautiful
They make you kill

Crawl on me
Sink into me
Die for me
Living Dead Girl
Crawl on me
Sink into me
Die for me
Living Dead Girl

Blood on her skin
Dripping with sin
Do it again
Living Dead Girl
Blood on her skin
Dripping with sin
Do it again
Living Dead Girl

With the haunting notes of "Dead Can Dance" fading gently, her smooth voice was woven all through the soft instrumental music.The words flowing with a contemplative note that echoed the melody playing behind them.

"Music for me is all about memories. Be they old or new, it can draw forth from our souls the sweet and the bitter recollection of days gone bye. A long forgotten dance, Broken hearts, or the fleeting joy of love's warm embrace. That being said, those listening perhaps can find additional memories, reminders of passion, and recaptured youth in this sound track of life."

Have a listen to Poets of the Fall's "Carnival of Rust". I am sure there are some out there who will be able to identify with this tune."

Canival of Rust
by Poets of the Fall
https://youtu.be/MKk1u5RMTn4

To breathe the name
Of your savior
In your hour of need
And taste the blame
If the flavor should remind you of greed
Of implication, insinuation and you will
Till you cannot lie still
In all this turmoil, before red cave and foil
Come closing in for a kill

Come feed the rain
'Cause I'm thirsty for your love
Dancing underneath the skies of lust
Yeah feed the rain
'Cause without your love, my life
Ain't nothing but this carnival of rust

It's all a game
Avoiding failure
When true colors will bleed
All in the name
Of misbehavior
And the things we don't need

I lust for after no disaster can touch
Touch us anymore
And more than ever, w hope to never fall
Where enough is not the same it was before

Come feed the rain
'Cause I'm thirsty for your love
Dancing underneath the skies of lust
Yeah feed the rain
'Cause without your love, my life
Ain't nothing but this carnival of rust

Yeah feed the rain
'Cause I'm thirsty for your love,
Dancing underneath the skies of lust
Yeah, feed the rain
'Cause without your love, my life
Ain't nothing but this carnival of rust

Don't walk away, don't walk away
Ooh, when the world is burning
Don't walk away, don't walk away
Ooh, when the heart is yearning
Don't walk away, don't walk away
Ooh, when the world is burning
Don't walk away, don't walk away
Ooh, when the heart is yearning

Coventry Carol

Lullay, thou little tiny child
Sleep well, lullay, lullay
And smile while dreaming, little one
Sleep well, lullay, lullay
Fair well, lullay, lullay

O sisters, too, what may we do
To preserve on this day;
This poor youngling for whom we sing?
Sleep well, lullay, lullay
Fair well, lullay, lullay

Herod the king, in his raging
Set forth upon this day;
By his decree, no lives spare he
All children young, to slay
All children young, to slay

Then woe is me, poor child, for thee
And ever mourn and say;
For thy parting, neither say nor sing
Fair well, lullay, lullay
Fair well, lullay, lullay

And when the stars fill darken skies
In their far vetchers stay;
And smile as dreaming, little one
Fair well, lullay, lullay
Dream now, lullay, lullay

A newer group with an old goth vibe. Reminiscent of classic Sisters of Mercy. Enjoy!

Promised Land
by Cold Cave
https://youtu.be/BQtAKJa5kvs

There's no resting for the wicked
Imagine how tired I am
I prayed for warmth and peace, but some winters never end
In California burning, old haunts and a new romance
In life we love, in death we dance

I get a little too high
I get a little too low
Take my hand to the promised land.

I wanna make your dreams come true,
I wanna make your darkest dreams come true
Cherry kisses on the lips,
All gold grows under your rainbow
Can I just spend my life buried alive inside of you?
In life we love, in death we dance
In life we love, in death we dance
I get a little too high
I get a little too low
Take my hand to the promised land.

It's a long long long way to go
It's a cold cold cold road alone
It's a long long long way to go
It's a cold cold cold road alone
Blue days, black nights
Purple haze, white lights
Blue days, black nights
Purple haze, white lights

It's a long long long way to go
It's a cold cold cold road alone
It's a long long long way to go
It's a cold cold cold road alone

The Dreaming is a group founded by the lead singer for Stabbing Westward, Christopher Hall. Recently, Stabbing Westward has released some new material, so rumors of their demise has been apparently exaggerated.

"Alone"
by The Dreaming
https://youtu.be/FvIHBlVKGd4

Alone

I know that you're lonely
I can see it written in your eyes
Behind your crooked smile
Lives a fear you can no longer hide
You've built an ivory tower
Locked the door and threw away the key
Hiding in the shadows
Thinking that the world's your enemy

The world's an ugly place when you're alone
But you don't have to face it on your own
You don't need to hide
Locked away inside
You're not alone

You tried to live among them
Pretending you were just another sheep
But they treat you like an alien
Sensing that you're different underneath
So you made your life a fortress
Built a wall around your broken heart
But now the walls are crumbling
The isolation's tearing you apart

The world's an ugly place when you're alone
But you don't have to face it on your own
You don't need to hide
Locked away inside
You're not alone

Locked in solitary
Unaware you've always held the key
For you designed this prison
And no one else can ever set you free

The world's an ugly place when you're alone
But you don't have to face it on your own
You don't need to hide
Just let me inside
You're not alone
You're not alone
You're not alone
