After Toby posted a little snippet link for a song to go along with his post, I thought it time to add this obligatory thread.

A song tied to a post, a themed character song, a song to best describe current emotions? They all work! Song title, artist, and lyrics whenever possible~

Poets Of The Fall - Miss Impossible

Mayu's theme. I found this a little while ago when I was looking for a couple of videos on youtube. Fell in love the instant I opened it. The lyrics capture her essence entirely, from the way she absolutely loves being barefoot in the rain (or anywhere she can get away with it) to the way she's "paradoxical, a parallel perpendicular."

Yeah~

She can see about four satellites every minute of the hour
And find a four leaf clover where you never saw a flower
She's habitually paradoxical, a parallel perpendicular

Barefoot in nightgowns, that's how she dances in the rain
Sundown to sundown, like she was washing 'way her pain

As she is beautiful, she's unpredictable
Damned irresistible, is it plausible to hate her
She is my common sense, revels on decadence
But what's the difference, it's impossible to bait her

She can really be a handful like the brownies that she bakes you
It can be a tad hysterical, but never quite the breakthrough
She's some kind of an epitome, the sea of intranquility

In flimsy nightgowns, barefoot she dances in the rain
Sundown to sundown, like she was washing 'way her pain

As she is beautiful, she's unpredictable
Damned irresistible, is it plausible to hate her
She is my common sense, revels on decadence
But what's the difference, it's an impossible debate

As she is beautiful, she's unpredictable
Damned irresistible, is it plausible to hate her
She is my common sense, revels on decadence
But what's the difference, it's impossible to bait her

Barefoot in nightgowns, that's how she dances in the rain
Sundown to sundown, like she was washing 'way her pain

In flimsy nightgowns, barefoot she dances in the rain
Sundown to sundown, like she was washing 'way her pain

As she is beautiful, she's unpredictable
Damned irresistible, is it plausible to hate her
She is my common sense, revels on decadence
But what's the difference, it's an impossible debate

Chiodos - Notes in Constellations

Toby's last theme before he died. The more I listened to it, the more it got stuck in my head. The more it got stuck in my head, the more relevant it seemed. Etc, etc.

Enjoy~

I see her smile in her sleep, I know that she's a dreamer.
Oh, I'll follow every move she makes.
It's been a long, long night.
Say you're mine.
Say you're mine.
Can I keep you tonight?
Tonight...

And we dance around just like constellations.
You keep my body warm.
And we dance around just like constelations.
You're keeping me awake at night.
You make my body warm.

And I fall for her like snow from the sky.
Gracefully I land in her arms.
But I melted away like snow into the ground.
I told her I've gotta go.
I've gotta go.

And we dance around just like constellations.
You keep my body warm.
And we dance around just like constellations.
You're keeping me awake at night.
You make my body warm.

It's been a long, long night
You said you're mine.
I felt so bad but I had to go.
No she never wanted me to leave her behind.
No she never wanted me to leave her.
(To leave her) So long, so long.

And we dance around just like constellations.
We dance around just like constellations.
We dance around, we dance around.
We dance around, we dance around.
We dance around, we dance around.
You make my body warm.
You make my body warm.

We dance around, we dance around.
We dance around, we dance around.
We dance around, we dance around...

Hatsune Miku - Rolling Girl

At Minoko's request, I've gone ahead and added this one.

"Rolling Girl" used to be Mayu's theme, somewhere there in late '10 and throughout '11. Hell, through the beginnings of '12. I know some remember it, but I felt the particular video that is tied to the song best associates with her frustrations with the world. It's like she finally had a chance to get an outlet.

Anyway, "Rolling Girl" has a lot of interpretations. Mine in specific? It's hard to put into words. She's never fit in, she's never really had her place, and she's always "rolled" with it. She's always been okay that she's a little different, a little quirky. But, because she's so different, she loses out on seeing a future for herself. So, she rolls with life. Over and over again, hoping to come to the realization she'll one day find it. That future of hers. Does she, though? Well? not every story has a happy ending.

Rolling Girl always looked at unreachable dreams
Making a fuss if you got inside her head and disturbed, disturbed.

?No problem.? Was murmured, but weren't those words lost?
Fail again, fail again.
After ending your search for mistakes, it spins again!

Once more, once more.
?I'll also roll today,?
That girl says, that girl says,
Playing her words with meaning

?Are you better now??
?It's still a ways off, I still don't see the point. I'm gonna stop my breathing, now.?

Rolling Girl is at the end of the ruins, beyond unreachable colors
Overlapping voices with voices and blending, blending.

?No problem.? Was murmured, but those words were lost.
How are you going to turn out good?
Even the hill tempting me is making mistakes now.

Once more, once more.
"Somehow I'm rolling,"
That girl said, That girl said
Repeating silent words with meaning

?Are you better now??
?Just a bit more, and you'll see something soon. I'm gonna stop my breathing, now.?

Once more, once more.
?I'll also roll today,?
That girl says, that girl says,
Playing her words with a smile

?Are you better now? It's okay now. Let's go, you must be tired as well, right??
"I wanna stop my breathing, now."

Chata - Yasashii

I originally had another song I put up that was suited to this post here, but I feel as though the feelings behind "Erase the timeline, erase the memories, erase your life" go much deeper than that. So I took it down.

Chata has sung a wonderfully beautiful song that better fits the emotions and the incredible impact Mayu likely felt in those last few moments of her original life before it was blacked out for her. Who she would be talking about, thinking about, saying goodbye to? there wouldn't just be one person in that list. There were an insurmountable number of people that impacted her life, from those she knew before RhyDin, to those she was close with only a few days prior. There never could have been enough time, ironically enough, to see each of them a final time, and some likely wouldn't have wanted her by them in her "final moments". This would have been the best she could have done, no matter where they were in the world.

This would be for them, from her. Enjoy.


I never knew
How happy you made me
With your nonchalant response
When I called your name

Because I believed
That these kind of days
Would continue forever and ever.

I loved the you
Who squinted her eyes and kindly laughed.
The slimness of the shoulders I embraced
That warmth, that voice... I remember them all.

I cannot convey these feelings,
So they are still overflowing in my heart.
No matter how much we can't meet each other,
I will not forget the scenery with you in it.

Our fingers, that were supposed to have been connected
Somewhere along the way
Got separated, and only I alone
Was standing still.

What kind of way
Should I phrase my words
To pray so that they will reach you?

Shards that were scattered faraway
Are sparkling with a shine.
Those days we spent together,
Are more kind and precious than anything.

In the bewildering flow of time,
Even if all of our memories
Start to fade,
I will never lose these feelings for you.

I loved the you
Who squinted her eyes and kindly laughed.
Because you gave me these irreplaceable feelings
With those arms, with that voice.

Something even more certain than memories
Still binds us till this day.
No matter how much we can't meet each other,
I will not forget the scenery with you in it.

Mono - Life in Mono

I had always had the idea that this song would be the one to reintroduce Toby to the public. I love the dreamy, half-confused feeling it has, gives off the impression that you've just surrendered to whatever current life has taken you on. I think it goes well with how he's been trying to deal with the possibility of a previous life and his recurring memory loss.

The stranger sang a theme
From someone else?s dream
The leaves began to fall
And no one spoke at all
But I can?t seem to recall
When you came along
Ingenue

Ingenue
I just don?t know what to do

The tree-lined avenue
Begins to fade from view
Drowning past regrets
In tea and cigarettes
But I can?t seem to forget
When you came along
Ingenue

Ingenue
I just don?t know what to do (x3)

Ingenue (fade out)

Mami Kawada - Serment

There's really nothing to explain when it comes to this particular song. It expresses a current girl's determination despite the pain she's feeling for a sister she's battling to make amends with and doesn't know how. Even if things have been let go and everything has changed, she won't forget and will make it come true even if she can't make it come true.

She won't give up.

This is me. My hair blows in the breeze
Onto my cheeks dusted with red
I am me, A drop of determination
This was the beginning.

If there is a tomorrow without mist that exists within both hope and despair

(simple as that)

I will not forget
This pain and that day's promise.
I want to make it come true, I can't make it come true, I can make it come true
On the nights I grabbed at the empty sky, I woke up the next morning with something
A faded thing called a "reason" just flies to the sky. Yes,
"And that's it."

Here I am. I speak it with my voice.
I confirmed the words I spoke
Wherever I am, even if I feel it
It's not until it reflects into my eyes

A shadow with an unknown identity will become strong if there is a tomorrow

(simple as that)

I won't give it up
This pain is the necessity that lead to our meeting
If it is just a wish that makes us release our hands entwined
And leaves us to die when we are lost, then we shouldn't ever meet again.
Until we meet once again, these overflowing teardrops won't stop. Yes,
"And that's it."

I will not forget
This pain and that day's promise
I want to make it come true, I can't make it come true, I can make it come true
On the nights I grabbed at the empty sky, I woke up the next morning with something
A faded thing called a "reason" just flies to the sky. Yes,
"And that's it."

Cascade - Sexy Sexy

The main theme for the Resonance folder.

The end.

^-^

Sexy, sexy

A mirage from the sunset
I want to see you, see you, can't see you, can't see you
You are like Utopia
If we shall meet again here someday
I miss you, I miss you
I need you, I need you, sexy sexy

Why don't you come in my room? I'll tell you a secret story
If you can't, I have to take you away
This night, even my heart wets.
Time cannot go back
Come back, come back, come back

A mirage from the passion
Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it
Pleasure like paradise
If we shall meet at that passionate place
Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it
Sexy sexy dance

The stars paled, flowers dearranged
Are you shinning from the darkness?

A mirage from our held fingers
Tease me, tease me, tease me, tease me
Let me go in
Forever, I'm in love with you around here
I miss you, I miss you, I need you, I need you
Sexy sexy you

Oh baby, my baby, oh baby, my baby, you are like a utopia

A mirage from the passion
Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it more
Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake, glossy and sexy sexy

Escape the Fate - Gorgeous Nightmare

Toby's current theme--'nuff said. xDDD

I've got another confession to make
So complicated let me try to explain
Don't want this feeling to go away
So it stays, it stays, it stays, it stays

Is it the way that you talk
That's causing me to freak?
Is it the way that you laugh
That's making my heart beat?
Is it the way that you kiss?
It's gotta be the way that you taste.

You're such a gorgeous nightmare
Old Habits never seem to go away
You make me feel brand new yeah
We resurrect it's like I've come back to life

I feel so alive, I feel so alive!
First impressions are hard to erase
Etched in my mind and it just won't go away
Maybe I'm playing my cards way too safe
I've gotta change (change)

Is it the way that you feel against my body?
Is it the way that you act so damn naughty?
Is it the way that you shake
When your hips move to the bass?

You're such a gorgeous nightmare
Old Habits never seem to go away
You make me feel brand new yeah
We resurrect it's like I've come back to life

I feel so alive, I feel so alive...

I feel so alive

You're such a gorgeous nightmare
Old habits never seem to go away
You make me feel brand new yeah
We resurrect it's like I've come back to life

You're such a gorgeous nightmare
Old habits don't go away
You make me feel brand new yeah
We resurrect it's like I've come back to life

I feel so alive, I feel so alive.
I feel so alive, I feel so alive.

SS501 - Love Ya (English cover)

Love Ya is a song originally sung in Korean by pop band SS501, but somebody has made an english cover, transliterating the lyrics with the MV so that they match up.

That said, this song used to be one of Toby's many themes showcasing his feelings for Mayu and how at the same time he loves her more than anything, he can't understand why she doesn't see it, and how watching her repeatedly get hurt wears him down. Until recently, it hasn't so much fit his current situation. Now that it does, I thought it prudent to put it up here.

Not to mention the song itself is urgent, dramatic and catchy. It'll get stuck in your head. xDDD

Yeah, here we go once again
Guess who's back let's go
This song is all about you
I really hate you but I love you
So what can I do? Now listen...


Girl you got me hurtin'
Cause I know for certain
We could be so perfect
And I know you know that I will always be your lover
Why don't you get it?
BABY LET ME
LOVE YA, LOVE YA, LOVE YA
Girl you got me hurtin'
Cause I know for certain
We could be so perfect
And I know you know that I will always be your lover
Put no one above ya
BABY LET ME
LOVE YA, LOVE YA, LOVE YA

You know that I've waited for you all of this time
With every breath and with every rhyme
You say you can't hear me, you're letting me go,
But now I'm back I'm letting you know
Forget your boyfriend, I can be your best friend
He never loved you the way I can love you girl
So baby won't you come to me
I'll make you, make you happy



You know that I tried being happy for you,
Even if my dreams would never come true what can I do,
If you would just look back at me, your smile is all that I need
But girl I see the way your tears are flowing
I know your pain is showing
I try to hold it back but its no use, my love is growing
I cannot let it go, I gotta take you
Baby, you belong with me
YEAH



Why don't you listen to me? Just think of all we could be...
Cause every time I look in your beautiful eyes, your pain is all I can see
Forget about the bad bad love that bruised your heart and pushed you away
You know I'll always be here for you at the end of the day
Every time your tears are flowing down, I'll save you girl you'll never drown
Even if my heart is ripped apart, yeah...
I can cross over the sea
Please believe before your ship goes down
I'm gonna sink into your heart, so we can burn this town

Rob Dougan - There's Only Me

I chose the instrumental version because it's the one I heard first, but when I looked up the lyrics, I was stunned.

I haven't seen anything speak so well, and so concisely, Toby's feelings as well as his secret hope and dream.

You're all I want.
You're all I need.
You're all I've got.
All I see.
It won't be long.
'Till suddenly
you'll find he's gone.

And you'll turn around and see.
There's only me,
from whom there's silence in your heart.
There's only me,
waiting patient to the last.

You wait and see.
One day your love will surely start.
You'll turn around,
you'll find when everyone departs.
There's only me.

You walk in the room.
You take you scat.
You don't turn around.
You don't see me.
I'll make him go.
You'll find one day he'll disappear.
You'll turn around.
And find that not a soul is here.
There's only me.

DWB feat. Fade - One Reason

Self explanatory. I picture the "Wonderland" being RhyDin. Multiple sources. Enjoy.

Slit the throat of reason and reality
Cut myself and scream for their insanity
Wake up to this nightmare that will never end
The main attraction of this twisted master plan

Trust nothing but pain to get me through the daze
Sleep with one eye open not to be their prey
Fist against my face they bring me to my knees
The pressure?s crushing down so hard
I can?t break free

When I can feel my skin crawl
When I?m about to crack
The hunger for revenge
gives me strength to stand

I will be your deadman
With nothing but this blood on my hands
Stuck in your ?wonderland?
I just want to make you bleed like me

Everyday goes by without a second thought
Living in a perfect and controlled project
A puppet of their sick perversion?s appetite
Will I be trapped inside this hell until I die?

So what if no one cares
Enough to make a change
I give my bleeding heart out for one reason

I will be your deadman
With nothing but this blood on my hands
Stuck in your ?wonderland?
I want to make you bleed just like me

So make me your deadman
With only poison in my veins
Stuck in your ?wonderland?
Stagnated by the passivity
I?m gonna make you bleed like me

SCANDAL - "Kagerou"

^.^

It's all just excuses and lies
Gazing into your eyes, I see through you
But why am I like this?
I don't know
Perhaps it's so I can be free
It's selfish but cute your favorite phrase is
"I want to be like the wind"

I want to hear "I love you"
But when I'm by your side like this
I want to have more freedom
So you can see anyone now

The evening breeze lightly brushes my cheek
My loneliness grows
Searching for fragments of love
Can you see this solitude calling out?
You can't lose something if you don't ask for it
While knowing this, I will ask again

I want to hear "I love you"
Until it seems my heart will break
We are immortal
I want to believe that, and only that

As the seasons go around
The distance between us seems to play with us and keep us apart
Love is fragile and short-lived
Knowing that, each time I meet up with you
The crime is repeated again

I want to hear "I love you"
I want to hold you in my arms
Time is passing by
Afraid that I am a mayfly

I want to hear "I love you"
But when I'm by your side like this
Feeling more distant than anyone
One more time words of true lovetions

A Rocker to the Moon - Nothing at All

Yeah, you might have somebody
No, but you don't got me
Oh, but your thinkin' 'bout it
Yeah, it's so easy to see
I won't tell nobody
Nobody's gonna tell on me
We both know it baby
Exactly what this could be

But sometimes you can't hide
The way you feel inside

Your love is the only thing
I can't live without it
It's too good not to talk about it
About your love
And I wanna know
How exactly did I get around it?
How did I ever live without it?
Without your lovin'
A little bit of lovin'
Beats a whole lot of nothing at all

You've got this thing about you
And that thing is just what I need
You deserve a little something better
And I'll be waiting patiently
I've been thinking 'bout our life together
Even if it's the death of me
And I know I'll never live forever
But I don't wanna wait and see

But sometimes you can't hide
The way you feel inside

Your love is the only thing
I can't live without it
It's too good not to talk about it
About your love
And I wanna know
How exactly did I get around it?
How did I ever live without it?
Without your lovin'
A little bit of lovin'
Beats a whole lot of nothing at all

I could be
The only thing that you'd ever need
I could be
Something that you don't wanna leave
Let me be the one that's gonna make you believe
That you were really made for me

Your love is the only thing
I can't live without it
It's too good not to talk about it
About your love
And I wanna know
How exactly did I get around it?
How did I ever live without it?
Without your lovin'

Your love is the only thing
I can't live without it
It's too good not to talk about it
About your love
And I wanna know
How exactly did I get around it?
How did I ever live without it?
Without your lovin'
A little bit of lovin'
Beats a whole lot of nothing at all

Christina Perri - A Thousand Years

I originally found this song in an AMV (posted above) and thought it too perfect not to put up. Beautiful song.

Heartbeats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave
How can I love when I'm afraid to fall
But watching you stand alone
All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow
One step closer

I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I love you for a thousand more

Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this
One step closer

I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find you

Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I love you for a thousand more

One step closer
One step closer

I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I love you for a thousand more

The Seeking - Yours Forever

There's not much I can say about this other than--perfection.

Hush don't be so; please don't be ridiculous
I'm all you need; I can give you finer things
In my heart you'll find the truth,
All I want is to be close to you, close to you
All this time you've wanted more,
Can't you see I'm what you're looking for, looking for

I won't give up on you,
I need you to trust in me
I gave you love, all that I had, please don't forget me
I am yours forever

You've been so lost, everything you had is gone
I'd change it all, can't you see you're truly loved?
Give me all you got, give me everything, don't run away
Never looking back, moving on to the way things ought to be
In my heart you'll find the truth,
All I want is to be close to you, close to you

I won't give up on you,
I need you to trust in me
I gave you love, all that I had, please don't forget me
I am yours forever

In my heart you'll find the truth,
All I want is to be close to you, close to you

I won't give up on you,
I need you to trust in me
I gave you love, all that I had, please don't forget me
I am yours forever

I am the answer, I'm yours forever
I am the answer, the answer

The Brilliant Green - Ash Like Snow (Male)

I can't believe I forgot to put this up here! I love everything about this song from the way the lyrics are written to the kind of atmosphere the music creates. Originally sung by a girl, I chose the male version because I like to pretend that even though Toby isn't Japanese, he can still sing decently. Enjoy!

An ebony darkness that dyes the sky red
Swallowed the stardust
Ash like snow falls and accumulates briefly

I gazed at the window of grief
I never dreamed
Freezing onto it
there... I come for you

My thoughts soared up
Into the desolate night sky and shattered
Every time when this world changed its shape
It destroyed
The things that I wanted to protect

An immoral darkness crowds my heart
Like anesthesia, your voice
Coldly steals away my sensations

Even if I pursue contradictions
They won't end
Why do I fight?

Even if light vanishes
And this Earth is corrupted
I won't forget
Your little wish
Guides you to the place where it must be at

there I come for you yeah
Ash Like Snow
is falling down from your sky
Ash Like Snow
Let me hear...
why I have to fight?

These thoughts of mine soared up
Into the desolate night sky and shattered
In exchange for the glory of opening up the darkness
I lost the things that I must protect
(It's falling from your sky)
It's too futile
(Baby I come for you)

Every time when I got hurt by the smashed up pieces
My closed heart
Chose to be strong
And came here

Nine Lashes - Anthem of the Lonely

I originally heard this song attached to a Bleach amv and thought that it fit so well I kept listening to it. The song title and the over all tone of the message it's trying to convey, I feel, coincides so well with what Toby's going through at this time. Enjoy!

A heart made of stone
Callous and bone
Fracture and tear it out
To let it go
And to think
I called it my own
And I would have never thought
The pain could grow

So I'll break it
Knowing what you said
The pain is what you make it
Sadly you are so mistaken
I will take you with a grain
And step into the changes
Throw away the empty heart

Right now
Never want to leave this place
And right now
See it in a different way
So right now
Even if you take me on
I'll stand the lonely
Stand the lonely

It's harder to know
Just where to go
If only the stars aligned
The sunsets glowed
I don't need
A calm in a storm
Or something to scream about
With empty lungs

So I'll break it
Knowing what you said
The pain is what you make it
Sadly you are so mistaken
I will take you with a grain
And step into the changes
Throw away the empty heart

Right now
Never want to leave this place
And right now
See it in a different way
So right now
Even if you take me on
I'll stand the lonely
Stand the lonely

(Stand the lonely)

Jason Derulo - The Other Side

This song comes on the radio at least once every time we're in the car. It's too perfect. Hopeless and hopeful at the same time, two friends right on the precipice of something more. Enjoy!

In the beginning
I never thought it would be you
When we were chilling
Smiling in the photo booth
But we got closer (yeah)
Soon you were eating off my spoon
You're coming over
And we would talk all afternoon

Tonight we?ll just get drunk
Disturb the peace
Find your hands all over me
And then you bite your lip
Whisper and say, ?We?re going all the way.?

Tonight
Take me to the other side
Sparks fly like the Fourth of July
Just take me to the other side
I see that sexy look in your eyes
And I know we ain?t friends anymore
If we walk down this road
We?ll be lovers for sure
So tonight kiss me like it?s do or die
And take me to the other side

This could be perfect (yeah)
But we won?t know unless we try (try)
I know you?re nervous
So just sit back and let me drive

Tonight we?ll just get drunk
Disturb the peace
Find your hands all over me
And then you bite your lip
Whisper and say, ?We?re going all the way.?

Tonight
Take me to the other side
Sparks fly like the Fourth of July
Just take me to the other side
I see that sexy look in your eyes
And I know we ain?t friends anymore
If we walk down this road
We?ll be lovers for sure
So tonight kiss me like it?s do or die
And take me to the other side

(Whoa)

Kiss me like it?s do or die
And take me to the other side

Tonight we?ll just get drunk
Disturb the peace
Let your love crash into me
And then you bite your lip
Whisper and say, ?We?re going all the way.?

Tonight
Take me to the other side
Sparks fly like the Fourth of July (yes, we do, yeah)
Just take me to the other side (take me, baby)
I see that sexy look in your eyes
And I know we ain?t friends anymore (oh, no)
If we walk down this road
We?ll be lovers for sure
So tonight (so tonight) kiss me like it?s do or die (kiss me, kiss me)
And take me to the other side

(Whoa)
Take me to the other side
(Whoa)
And take me to the other side
(Whoa)
Kiss me like it?s do or die
(Whoa)
And take me to the other side

Number One - Hazel Fernandes

A song that doesn't need any description based on principle of this RP.

If you wanna see some action
Gotta be the centre of attraction
Make sure that they got their eyes on you, like the face that you see on every magazine

Be the focus of attention
Be the name that every one must mention
Come out from the shadows, it's your time, cos tonight is the night for everyone to see

It's natural
You know that this is where you gotta be, it must be your destiny
Sensational
And you believe that, this is what you've waited for and it's you that they all adore, so baby

Now you feel like number one
Shining bright for everyone
Living out your fantasy, the
Brightest star for all to see
Now you feel like number one
Shining bright for everyone
Living out your fantasy, you're the
Brightest star there's ever been

Feel the heat that's all around you
Flashing lights and ecstasy surround you
Everybody wants a piece of you; you're the queen of the scene, living in a dream

It's natural
You know that this is where you gotta be, it must be your destiny
Sensational
And you believe that, this is what you've waited for and it's you that they all adore

Now you feel like number one
Shining bright for everyone
Living out your fantasy, the
Brightest star for all to see

This is what you've waited for and it's you that they all adore

Now you feel like number one
Shining bright for everyone
Living out your fantasy, the
Brightest star for all to see
Now you feel like number one
Shining bright for everyone
Living out your fantasy, you're the
Brightest star there's ever been

Yume Sekai - Tomatsu Haruka (Cover by Amanda Lee)

Wordless.

I wonder if this light inside my heart has been right here all along
And I've never noticed it at all
'Cause every time I stumble down
Or have to take the long way around
It shines on me forever more

The distant singing of the bells
If you listen close it tells
A lonely story

Once more, I'll push my fears away
All that I endure today will make me stronger

The mere repeating of reality alone
Aligns the stars and all the wishes they take on
At last I've found something to chase with all my might
I cannot fight or go against these feelings

No matter if one day I wake and blink away this world around me
And I'm lost in thoughts of what could be
I know that I will find my way
'Cause now I have this light within me
It shines on me forever more

Every night following that dream
Where I threw away that old and silly ribbon
Lights have adorned the city streets
And I've been without one fret or worry within

I need a sanctuary that will keep me safe
As if protected like an angel in heaven
If I cannot have wings I'd like someone to trust
I know it must be wonderful like magic

If I could choose I'd stay like this forever while this world around me
Fills with colors I have never seen
I know I wouldn't hesitate
'Cause now the colors of each moment
Will change and change forever more

Answers we cannot find
No matter if they're not kind
We'll find it even blind
That is true in my mind

I'm believing till the end
That we are similar, my friend
One day I'll shine like this Dream World

If you just take a moment to blink all those tears away from your eyes
And you manage to conceal your cries
You'll never fear again because
The future you yearned for in heartache
Will shine on you forevermore
Without a limit

No matter if one day I wake and blink away this world around me
And I'm lost in thoughts of what could be
I know that I will find my way
'Cause now I have this light within me
It shines on me forevermore
And shines and shines forevermore
For you and me, eternally

Joint - Mami Kawada

(The first opening to the second season of Shakugan no Shana, where I've taken a lot of my inspiration for Mayu in the past 4 years. The lyrics capture a lot of what she's feeling. Enjoy.)

The world we have returned to is nothing more than
a collection of dust, afterimages, and faint shadows.

On your dauntless back is your determination
to shoulder the responsibility for everything.

What do you want to do? Why?
I thought you had decided to take a lonely journey?

Do not let go of my hand.
The wish lying dormant in my heart will awake
from your thoughts as they travel from you to me.
In the distance beyond your powerful gaze,
the outlines of two adamant figures are visible,
so we'll keep going forward, onto the next era.

I'm learning the miracle of surviving
in a gradually crumbling environment.

Seeking after a special meaning,
I wander along a pathless road.

I want to believe. I wanted you
to have faith and walk together with me.

Do not avert your eyes.
I can't express it well in words,
but I want you from the depths of my heart.
In the distance far beyond our hope,
the outlines of two adamant figures are visible,
so we'll keep going forward, to the next place.

Our regrets and sorrows
showed me happiness in even greater amount.
And also, they taught me the fact
that your would always be right next to me.

Don't you feel it?
Nothing is scary anymore.

Please tightly hold my hands.
The amount of strength only you can muster
will gradually turn our dreams into reality.
In the distance beyond your powerful gaze,
the outlines of two adamant figures are visible,
so we'll keep going forward, onto the next era.

Thousand Foot Krutch - Be Somebody

Song/vid = yes.

I?m just the boy inside the man, not exactly who you think I am
Trying to trace my steps back here again so many times
I?m just a speck inside your hand, you came and made me who I am
I remember where it all began so clearly

I feel a million miles away, still you connect me in your way
And you create in me something I would?ve never seen

When I could only see the floor, you made my window a door
So when they say they don?t believe, I hope that they see you in me

After all the lights go down, I?m just the words you are the sound
A strange type of chemistry, how you?ve become a part of me
And when I sit alone at night, your thoughts burn through me like a fire
You?re the only one who knows who I really am.

We all wanna be somebody, we just need a taste of who we are.
We all wanna be somebody, we?re willing to go but not that far.

And we?re all see through, just like glass
And we can shatter just as fast
That light?s been burned out for a while,
I still see it every time I pass
It was lost in the corners of my mind,
Behind a box of reasons why
I never doubted it was there,
It just took a little time to find and even when...

I feel a million miles away, still you connect me in your way
And you create in me something I would?ve never seen

When I could only see the floor, you made my window a door
So when they say they don?t believe I hope that they see you in me

After all the lights go down, I?m just the words you are the sound
A strange type of chemistry, how you?ve become a part of me
And when I sit alone at night, your thoughts burn through me like a fire
You?re the only one who knows who I really am

We all wanna be somebody, we just need a taste of who we are
We all wanna be somebody, we?re willing to go but not that far
We all wanna be somebody, we just need a taste of who we are
We all wanna be somebody, we?re willing to go but not that far

I?m just the boy inside the man, not exactly who you think I am
Trying to trace my steps back here again so many times

When I could only see the floor, you made my window a door
So when they say they don?t believe, I hope that they see you in me

"My Dearest" Guilty Crown (AmaLee)

So everything that makes me whole
Belongs to you I'll give heart and soul
I'm yours

Hey,
I've never laughed like this in my life
Forgetting all of the bitter strife
I know
I've made mistakes
Even so
I'm glad I kept my feet on that path
Because it's brought me to where I am today
I'm here with you

I'll keep my head held high
Always looking at the not too distant sky (And I promise you)
We will go far where the stars all are
'Cause we'll be connected by our joining hands
Smile and all of my tears dry
And this love of our will never die

The two of us have something precious
We must protect no matter what (oh my dearest)
But there will come a time (oh my dearest)
When our own strength alone won't be enough (ahh)
Even if all hope is lost and somehow you and I lose our way
And even if the darkness comes and tries to take you far away

I'll become the light that shines down enveloping all dark you see
(Oh my dearest)
I'll hold you close and won't let even God above take you from me
(Oh my dearest ahh)

So everything that makes me whole
Belongs to you I'll give my heart and soul
I'm yours

Hey, in this world I can see so much beauty
And happiness that I can't help but
Believe we'll find it too

There will come a time when someone accuses you of telling lies
(Oh my dearest)
And they'll try and hurt you with their heartless words and judging eyes
Even if the world turns on you and won't believe a word you say
And even if they make you wear a crown of thorns upon your head

I will stand and be the one
To wipe away those tears you shed
And when someone's hurt you
Let me be the arms you can run to

So everything that makes me whole
Belongs to you; I'll give my heart and soul wah
I'm Yours

One day you will understand all the mysteries inside my heart
I will wait for that day praying that we will never fall apart (My Dearest)
Even if all hope is lost and somehow I'm forced to fade away
And even if I disappear I know that things will okay

I'll become eternal and will live on in your memory
I'll never forget you and I hope you will remember me

You're my dearest treasure
And for you I'd take my heart and soul and I'd
Risk it all

Edge of the Earth - 30 Seconds to Mars

You know enough to know the way
Six billion people just one name (I found)
I found tomorrow in today
Apocalyptic and insane, my dreams will never change
You wanna be the one in control
You wanna be the one who's alive
You wanna be the one who gets old
It's not a matter of luck, it's just a matter of time

Stand out on the edge of the earth


Stand out on the edge of the earth
Dive into the center of fate
Walk right in the sight of a gun
Look into the new future's face

I know you know enough to say
I know you know enough to play a game

You wanna be the one in control
You wanna be the one who's alive
You wanna be the one who gets old
It's not a matter of luck, it's just a matter of time

Stand out on the edge of the earth
Stand out on the edge of the earth

I Burn - Casey Lee Williams

Come at me
And you'll see
I'm more than meets the eye.
You think that
You'll break me,
You're gonna find in time
You're standing too close to a flame that's burning
Hotter than the sun in the middle of July.
Sending out your army, but you still can't win;
Listen up, silly boy, 'cuz I'm gonna tell you why...

I burn!
Can't hold me now,
You got nothing that can stop me.
I burn!
Swing all you want.
Like a fever I will take you down.

Reign supreme?
In your dreams;
You?ll never make me bow.
Kick my ass?
I'm world-class
And Super Saiyan now.

You?re starting up a fight that you just can?t finish;
Watch the little hearts while they scrape you off the floor.
Bringing out your rockets? Well, shoot 'em up, baby,
High as you can go, but I?m the one who?s gonna soar.

I burn!
Can't hold me now,
You got nothing that can stop me.
I burn!
Swing all you want,
Like a fever I will take you down.

It doesn?t have to be this way;
Let?s kiss and make up, then you?ll learn
You can fight your life away;
I get what I want, so don?t bother and just watch me burn.

Hotter than the sun,
Feel my fire;
Pyromaniac: my desire.
Thought that you could see the truth,
'Til I just burned down the booth.
Human Torch can?t fuck with me;
Johnny Blaze: Suspect B.
Strike 'em quick, lightning fast;
Melt them bitches down to ash.

Gasoline, kerosene;
Strike the match, ignite the scene.
Shit will never be the same;
Feel the fury of my flame.
Beg for mercy: it won?t help;
Embrace the ending you were dealt.
Seems you fucks will never learn;
Now sit back and watch me burn.

I burn!
Can't hold me now,
You got nothing that can stop me.
I burn!
Swing all you want,
Like a fever I will take you down.

I burn!
Can't hold me now,
You got nothing that can stop me.
I burn!
Swing all you want,
Like a fever I will take you down.

It's Over When It's Over - Falling in Reverse

I've got my life laid out in front of me like roads drawn on a map.
I've had so many times where I slipped off the beaten path.
I took the time to see the picture and for what it's worth.
I'd walk a thousand miles without my shoes to make it work.

I swore to God that I'm never coming back.
Kept my faith when I was clapped.
Staring at the wall through a crack in the floor.
And these metal doors?they've got me trapped.
I gotta remind myself that my mind is strong so I won't lose my head.
I've got my demons that I fight with every little thought and every breath.

I wear my heart up on my sleeve so my soul's exposed.
And I carry this disease, the weight of the holy ghost.
God, can you hear me? God is missing.

Take it back, take it back, my friend,
All the things that you said about the end.
This is it, this is me telling you it ain't over 'til it's over.
Give it up, give it up, my friend.
The score is settled even if you won't admit.
Set it down, final hour without a doubt, it's over when it's over.

You've got your life laid out in front of you like a car crash.
Unconscious at the wheel cause you were driving too fast.
But if you took the time to check up in your rear-view mirror,
You'd see the things you're driving from are your biggest fears.

You gotta get back up from the wreckage above and walk right through the fire.
No matter what happens, the fact is that the flames keep getting higher.
You gotta keep it going, keep tiptoeing through the fire and the flames and the pain of knowing.
That the world is dark, gotta keep on going, gotta give that spark, gotta keep on glowing.

I wear my heart up on my sleeve so my soul's exposed.
And I carry this disease, the weight of the holy ghost.
God, can you hear me? God is missing.

Take it back, take it back, my friend,
All the things that you said about the end.
This is it, this is me telling you it ain't over 'til it's over.
Give it up, give it up, my friend.
The score is settled even if you won't admit.
Set it down, final hour without a doubt, it's over when it's over.

So please, please, just let me make my peace.
I refuse to let your words be the death of me.
Please, please, just let me live my life.
Stop living in my shadow and just make it right.
It's over, it's over, make it right.

Take it back, take it back, my friend,
All the things that you said about the end.
This is it, this is me telling you it ain't over 'til it's over.
Give it up, give it up, my friend.
The score is settled even if you won't admit.
Sun is up, final hour without a doubt, it's over when it's over.

It's over, it's over (it's over)
This is it, this is me telling you it ain't over 'til it's over.

Wrong Side of Heaven - Five Finger Death Punch

I spoke to god today, and she said that she's ashamed.
What have I become, what have I done?
I spoke to the devil today, and he swears he's not to blame.
And I understood, cuz I feel the same.

Arms wide open, I stand alone.
I'm no hero, and I'm not made of stone.
Right or wrong, I can hardly tell.
I'm on the wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side of hell.
I'm on the wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side, righteous side of hell.

I heard from god today, and she sounded just like me.
What have I done, and who have I become.
I saw the devil today, and he looked a lot like me.
I looked away, I turned away!

Arms wide open, I stand alone.
I'm no hero, and I'm not made of stone.
Right or wrong, I can hardly tell.
I'm on the wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side of hell.
I'm on the wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side, the righteous side of hell.

I'm not defending, downward descending,
falling further and further away!
I'm closer EVERYDAY!

I'm getting closer every day, to the end.
The end, The end, the end,
I'm getting closer EVERYDAY!

Arms wide open, I stand alone.
I'm no hero, and I'm not made of stone.
Right or wrong, I can hardly tell.
I'm on the wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side of hell.
I'm on the wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side of hell.
I'm on the wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side, the righteous side of hell.

White Knight Chronicles - The Battlefield Flower

Mood tune.

You, you are
The wind the gentle wind caressing me
You, you are
My dream, my lonely dream that fades away

And now, I'm lost here without you
Alone in the dark
Wake me up
And open my eyes
(oooh)

The moon hangs low in a black and bloody sky
Shining down on a dark and weary world
Arrow made of light
Piercing through the night
Tears a hole in the darkness

I followed you to the end of the earth
Where the sky meets a cold dry land
Oh feel the wind blowing
The flower made of fire
Blooms in a battlefield

I am walking the world searching for the sweetest smile
Waiting for the sign to show me the way

Darling I will be your angel in a gathering storm
I won't ever let you fall
I won't let you fade away

Resurrecting all the power in my sword
Tonight I tear out the earth with my might
oohhhh

The city turns to ashes as we sleep
Sorrow wraps her arms around the meek
You will rise above
Destined to be mine
Spirit turns into ecxstacy

The battle scars a heart yearning for truth
A reason for the pain of loving you
Oh feel the wind blowing the flower made of fire
blooms on the battlefield

Only hope can lead us through a dark and desperate hour
I will follow my heart 'til I hold you again

Oh I will pray tonight on a bright and shooting star
That souls bound as one will find their way to the light

Resurrecting all my will, all of my might
And now
We'll shatter the sky in the fight

A brand new era has begun
Forever starts today

When love has won, then the struggle will be done
Hold on to hope
That we'll find Eden

Wind begins to cry cause the lovers rule the sky
Ah the Epilogue begins to play
Begins today

Darling I will chase my dream
Over tossed and stormy seas
Souls bound as one will find their way to the light

Resurrecting all my will, all of my might
My love
I give you my life to renew
My love
The miracle I save for you

Take it and take it and take it until you take us all
Smash it and crash it and thrash it and trash it

Steal and shoot it and kill it or take another route
Take it and take it and take it
You know they're only toys

Isn't so primitive

Nobody nobody wants to feel like this
Nobody nobody wants to live like this
Nobody nobody wants a war like this

Stolen like a foreign soul

You Stupid Girl - Framing Hanley

A song just for Toby to Mayu

Feels like the walls are closing in on me
I'm suffocating, I can barely breathe
And you've got me right where you want me

This is the side of you I've never seen
You're not the girl that you used to be
And you've got me right where you want me

You always know, how to bring me down
Let's just face it now, I'm never changin'

You are my world, my everything
You stupid girl, you're gonna be the death of me
So let me go, just let me be
You stupid girl, I love the way you're killing me
(killing me)
You stupid girl

You're like an angel but with broken wings
A heart so cold can never show mercy
And you've got me right where you want me

You are my world, my everything
You stupid girl, you're gonna be the death of me
So let me go, just let me be
You stupid girl, I love the way you're killing me
(killing me)
You stupid girl (killing me)
You stupid girl

I know I'm a bastard, I'm not a coward
Why can't you see what you're doin' to me?
I'm falling faster, more every hour
Why can't you see what you're doin' to me?

Open your eyes, open your eyes

This is killing me

You are my world, my everything
You stupid girl, you're gonna be the death of me
So let me go, just let me be
You stupid girl, I love the way you're killing me
(killing me)
You stupid girl (killing me)

Save the World - Adelitas Way

I'm just saying that you're sounding dumb.
It's kinda funny you're never wrong.
Do you just wanna fake it, I don't wanna say shit.
Do you leave it alone?

Seen lesson, you sounded stumped.
So many words and you're never wrong.
Same old situation, now I feel so blatant.
Finally figured you out.

Save the world from the fiction that you live in.
Kill the soul, I need a show like interplay.
Try alone to convince us that you mean it.
Give it up, 'cause our way, no, you don't know a thing.

You're getting money, your lips are loud.
So many words that I'm cutting out.
'Cause you just wanna fake it.
I don't wanna say shit, take it or leave it alone!

So get lost or get numbed.
So we can say that you're all alone.
You just wanna take somebody's reputation.
Leave it back in your mind.

Save the world from the fiction that you live in.
Kill the soul, I need a show like interplay.
Try alone to convince us that you mean it.
Give it up, 'cause our way, no, you don't know a thing.

I'm praying for the sky to strike you down!
Even the devil comes out to watch you drown!
Set us free, don't lie!

Set us free, don't lie!
Tell the world you have to let this go!
Just save yourself, I won't!

Save the world from the fiction that you live in.
Kill the soul, I need a show like interplay.
Try alone to convince us that you mean it.
Give it up, cause our way, no, you don't know a thing.

Die - Casey Lee Williams

It was just fine,
We lived in peace,
Looked to a happy ending.

The days were bright,
They shined like gold,
Every step ascending.

Our dreams came true,
Our path was clear,
The moon watched safely from above.

But every smile,
Is not the same,
And every heart's not filled with...

Love for mankind;
Look around it's getting very hard to find.
Not every open wound is simply healed by time,
But revenge is always sweet,
And chaos is the prize.

Feel it everywhere and you see it growing,
Enemies arise and the hate is flowing,
Shattering the moon and bloodying the sky.

The machines of war will fuel both sides,
And the greed will only grow more lies;
Farewell to days of peace 'cause now it's time to die.

Where did it go?
Our peaceful youth,
Seems to be gone forever.

And in its place,
A life of war,
Every truce has severed.

We'll live our lives,
Watching our backs,
Not knowing who to trust or fear.

The hate just swallows all the love,
And all the,
Truth will disappear...

Lost and blind;
Seems our dreams of peace have all been left behind.
It's always said white clouds aren't always silver lined,
But the future's looking bleak,
And the storm is set to rise.

Say goodbye.
Time to die.
Say goodbye.
Just say goodbye.
Time to die. (Time...)

Feel it everywhere and you see it growing,
Enemies arise and the hate is flowing,
Shattering the moon and bloodying the sky.

The machines of war will fuel both sides,
And the greed will only grow more lies;
Farewell to days of peace 'cause now it's time to die.

Die
Die

Neophobia - Nano

(Found this to being an ideal song for the little demon fighter. Now her new theme.)

Standing on the edge of my intention
looking down into my hell
and all I see are people in destruction
begging for an answer

But above the hate they carry on in silence
they believe the only voice inside
and it?s not another nightmare of how you?ll surrender
your life today

I hear their voices now
a pain awake again
Feel their eyes as you run
but you cannot hide
so you gotta release your soul tonight, yeah

This is my hell
I live to tell
the only story of how I betrayed my own direction
There?s nowhere to go
in time you?ll know
you gotta live to die

This is my hell
and time will tell
the only story of how I forgave my own deception
There?s nowhere to go
in time you?ll know
today you?ve gotta die to keep yourself alive

You live, you die, and life goes on

Staring at the sight of my reflection
broken by these silent screams
and all I feel are shards of imperfection
piercing through my dreams

But another night I?ve wasted in defiance
I believe the only voice inside
and it?s just another nightmare of how I?ll surrender
my life today

I feel their presence now
a fear that takes me in
All the sins, all the lies
that you can?t deny
so you gotta release your soul tonight, yeah

This is my hell
I live to tell
the only story of how I betrayed my own direction
There?s nowhere to go
in time you?ll know
you gotta live to die

This is my hell
and time will tell
the only story of how I forgave my own deception
There?s nowhere to go
in time you?ll know
today you?ve gotta die to keep yourself alive

You bleed, you bleed, you bleed,
your heart is bleeding
you?re on your knees you?re praying now
for all the sins and the tragedies you?ve buried deep
You breathe, you breathe, you breathe,
your soul is breathing
and now you feel the burn inside
so take your life and make it right

This is my hell
I live to tell
the only story of how I betrayed my own direction
There?s nowhere to go
in time you?ll know
you gotta live to die

This is my hell
and time will tell
the only story of how I forgave my own deception
There?s nowhere to go
in time you?ll know
today you?ve gotta die to keep yourself alive

You live, you die, and life goes on
You live, you die, and life goes on

This is the life you chose
and you know the story must go on

My Demons - Starset

Mayday! Mayday!
The ship is slowly sinking
They think I'm crazy but they don't know the feeling
They're all around me,
Circling like vultures
They wanna break me and wash away my colors
Wash away my colors

Take me high and I'll sing
Oh you make everything okay, okay, okay
'Kay, Okay, Okay
We are one in the same
Oh you take all of the pain away, away, away
'Way, away, away
Save me if I become
My demons

I cannot stop this sickness taking over
It takes control and drags me into nowhere
I need your help, I can't fight this forever
I know you're watching,
I can feel you out there

Take me high and I'll sing
Oh you make everything okay, okay, okay
'Kay, Okay, Okay
We are one in the same
Oh you take all of the pain away, away, away
'Way, away, away
Save me if I become
My demons

Take me over the walls below
Fly forever
Don't let me go
I need a savior to heal my pain
When I become my worst enemy
The enemy

Take me high and I'll sing
Oh you make everything okay
We are one in the same
Oh you take all of the pain away

Take me high and I'll sing
Oh you make everything okay, okay, okay
'Kay, Okay, Okay
We are one in the same
Oh you take all of the pain away, away, away
'Way, away, away
Save me if I become
My demons

Take me high and I'll sing
Oh you make everything okay, okay, okay
'Kay, Okay, Okay
We are one in the same
Oh you take all of the pain away, away, away
'Way, away, away
Save me if I become
My demons

No Pain, No Gain - Nano

I embraced the furthest ends of this story
And continued wandering without a destination
Into this dripping new world.
The game has only just begun.
Now is the beginning sign in your eyes.

This is where tomorrow brings a new game.
It's time to learn that pain is gain ready FIGHT!

In order to crush the depression from the past,
I've made a sacrifice of the future.
Until my life comes to an end,
I'm going to break down that fate.

Ahh break out and start a revolution
Searching for a single answer.

I challenge the race of limits,
Knowing that this is my only chance,
I'm going to overcome the fate that I carry.
I embraced the furthest ends of this story
And continued wandering without a destination
Into this dripping new world.
The game has only just begun.
Now is the beginning sign in your eyes.

When you feel you've reached the last dead end
what will you do to save yourself from fate?
Would you take a knife into your heart
or would you rather break the fall and take defeat?

Ah, step out and find your evolution.

I challenge the eternal chase,
Cutting past the single-time start line,
I'm going to overcome this crazy will of heaven.
I embraced a dried out image,
And continued to fight without a reason
In this hazy true world.
The game has only just begun
The days are only beginning.

In the crack between reality and fake,
There's only one reset allowed.
I'm sure salvation lies in my heart.
I embraced the furthest ends of this story
And continued wandering without a destination
Into this dripping new world.
The game has only just begun.
Now is the beginning sign in your eyes.

Absolute Zero - Stone Sour

The bloody angle, the symmetry
Your cheap adhesive isn't holding me
My mouth is a gun I can shoot, I can show you the truth
And I don't need a reason to lie to you

No pun intended, no punishment
If I offended you, you needed it
Ideas are the bombs in your mind, a fissure in time
If you don't have a weapon you can't have mine

I can bleed if I want to bleed
I can feel if I feel the need
This face is my last confession
This life, it feels like a prison

Oh ho, I'm not afraid
I'm giving into grievances again
You're looking at an absolute zero
I'm not the devil but I won't be your hero

The catatonic, the sacrilege
Your primadonnas are a privilege
My God has a need to react, it's as simple as that
It's better just to settle and face the facts

I can bleed if I want to bleed
I can feel if I feel the need
This face is my last confession
This life, it feels like a prison

Oh ho, I'm not afraid
I'm giving into grievances again
You're looking at an absolute zero
I'm not the devil but I won't be your hero

One thing that I can't stand
Is when the minutes fight the second hand
I'll waste a lifetime's worth
Just to play to one more day

No fucking quota, no premiums
The world is stuck in delirium
Man is a four-letter word, it's really absurd
The hate isn't fake, it's just inferred

Oh ho, I'm not afraid
I'm giving into grievances again
I'm down to absolute zero
Another zealot with the weight of the fucking world

Oh, I'm not afraid
And I will let you down as I hold you in
You're looking at an absolute zero
I'm not the devil but I won't be your hero

I'm Alive - Shinedown

I'm alive!

So you were 6 feet underneath me
I feel the pulse I swear you moved
You digging deep deep down and recognized how much you had to lose

And if you wanna get out of here
Wanna get out of here
Save yourself
But you'll never get anywhere
Never get anywhere
Not without my help

'Cause you're living a lie, my friend

Well you're dead inside

And you know I'm right
So make a move
Let it bleed
Tear your heart off your sleeve
But I'm the only one who's gonna save your life
I'm the one who's gonna save your life
I'm the one who's is gonna

So how far did you go for shelter?
How long did it take you to find
A place to sell your providence
And a harm peace of mind?

And if you wanna get out of here
Wanna get out of here
Save yourself
But you'll never get anywhere
Never get anywhere
Not without my help

Drop Dead Cynical - Amaranthe

Drop dead cynical

I need attention, feed my addiction
I want the action, the satisfaction
You have to feed me worse that I inquire
So my discord someday takes me higher

I hope to thrill you that expectations rise
I want to bring you so that you can compromise
I'm coming at you like a killer now
so it's the truth you are drop dead cynical

Welcome to the new world
Open up the gates of paradise
So let's get cynical
Run into a new maze
Open up your minds
and soon we'll all
Be drop dead cynical

Be drop dead cynical

It's your illusions, fatal contradiction
I need the action premonition
I like to thrill you, I am what inspires
Let you explode in a cosmic fire

your death counts as a light that feels right
To die so sadly as the red behind the sun
You make it hard to justify now
Say what you want you are drop dead cynical

Welcome to the new world
Open up the gates of paradise
So let's get cynical
Run into a new maze
Open up your minds
and soon we'll all
Be drop dead cynical

Be drop dead cynical

I hope to thrill you that expectations rise
I want to bring you so that you can compromise
I'm coming at you like a killer now
so it's the truth you are drop dead cynical

Welcome to the new world
Open up the gates of paradise
So let's get cynical
Run into a new maze
Open up your minds
and soon we'll all
Be drop dead cynical

Angels Fall - Breaking Benjamin

Another of those songs for Toby from Mayu.

I try to face the fight within
But it's over
I'm ready for the riot to begin
And surrender
I walked the path that led me to the end
Remember
I'm caught beneath with nothing left to give
Forever

When angels fall with broken wings
I can't give up, I can't give in
When all is lost and daylight ends
I'll carry you and we will live forever, forever

Grey skies will chase the light away
No longer
I fought the fight now only dark remains
Forever
Divided I will stand
And I will let this end

When angels fall with broken wings
I can't give up, I can't give in
When all is lost and daylight ends
I'll carry you and we will live forever, forever

The sun begins to rise
And wash away the sky
The turning of the tide
Don't leave it all behind
And I will never say goodbye

When angels fall with broken wings
I can't give up, I can't give in
When all is lost and daylight ends
I'll carry you and we will live forever, forever
Forever, forever

Save Yourself - My Darkest Days

I?m the devil?s son straight out of hell
And you?re an angel with a haunted heart
If you?re smart you?d run and protect yourself
From the demon living in the dark
There?s nothing to be gained cause I can never change
And you can never understand my sickness
(I?ll never understand my sickness)

Save yourself
From a life full of lies and a heart full of pain and sorrow
Save yourself
From the choices I make cause nothing but failure follows me
Save yourself

You?re the perfect drug when it hurts like hell
I've never needed anyone so much
There?s no-one else I love and I curse myself
Cause the right thing is to give you up

I?m overcome by shame cause I can never change
And you can never understand my sickness
(I?ll never understand my sickness)

Save yourself
From a life full of lies and a heart full of pain and sorrow
Save yourself
From the choices I make cause nothing but failure follows me
Save yourself
From a life full of lies and a heart full of pain and sorrow
Save yourself
From the choices I make cause nothing but failure follows me
Save yourself

You'll never understand my sickness
(I?ll never understand my sickness)
Cause i don?t understand my sickness
(I?ll never understand my sickness)

Save yourself
From a life full of lies and a heart full of pain and sorrow
Save yourself
From the choices I make cause nothing but failure follows me
Save yourself
From a life full of lies and a heart full of pain and sorrow
Save yourself
From the choices I make cause nothing but failure follows me

Save yourself

Killing Our Memories - Fable

The sky is breaking me tonight,
I wish that you were by my side
the world keeps falling under me,
I wish that you could see.
Lines were crossed in my mind
I know I should have seen the signs
I might be lost on the way
but I am not afraid.

I wanted you to know
wanted you to know
wanted you to know I won't be waiting
Burning as I
needed you to know
I have to let you go
I've wasted all my time as you were changing
killing all our memories...

Should have seen it from the start
we are tend to fall apart,
If we believe that we can change
than it's all in vain
We could try and try again
But we'd get closer to the end
Crawling as we try to breathe
We're not meant to be

I wanted you to know
wanted you to know
wanted you to know I won't be waiting
Burning as I
needed you to know
I have to let you go
I've wasted all my time as you were changing
killing all our memories...

I wanted you to know
wanted you to know
wanted you to know I won't be waiting
Burning as I
needed you to know
I have to let you go
I've wasted all my time as you were changing
killing all our memories...

(You had to be in fortune.
There is no mean to live... without you.
I can continue to sleep)

The frozen flowers are going to scatter
In the middle of the season I still see dear dreams

Not able to heal the burst-open gashes of loneliness
The distorted sky under the pale moon

Downpouring light that child, swallowed by the waves
vanished in the sands of endless time

Embracing recollections to my chest a story that revolves and is being continued
I only have one single wish
You had to be in fortune.
There is no mean to live... without you.
I can continue to sleep.

The illusion of snow that is going to melt  a promise of desertion
Now Now, I can't see anything anymore

You are like the stars that are being born and die perishing
Where are you going, how many times

Embracing recollections to my chest a story that revolves and is being continued
I only have one single wish
You had to be in fortune.
There is no mean to live... without you.

The repeating tragedy now is replaced by cold tears
Even though I just want to know
Why are you crying? Missing?
Innocent rosemary... tell me why.
The drops don't vanish

Fallen Angel - Three Days Grace

A reoccuring theme here

Late at night I could hear the crying
I hear it all, trying to fall asleep
When all the love around you is dying

How do you stay so strong?
How did you hide it all for so long?
How can I take the pain away?
How can I save

A fallen angel, in the dark
Never thought you'd fall so far
Fallen angel, close your eyes
I won't let you fall tonight
Fallen angel

You do it all for my own protection
You make me feel like I'll be okay
Still I have so many questions

How do you stay so strong?
How did you hide it all for so long?
How can I take the pain away?
How can I save

A fallen angel, in the dark
Never thought you'd fall so far
Fallen angel, close your eyes
I won't let you fall tonight
Fallen angel, just let go
You don't have to be alone
Fallen angel, close your eyes
I won't let you fall tonight

I was right beside you
When you went to hell and back again
I was right beside you
When you went to hell and back again
And I, I can save, a fallen angel

A fallen angel, in the dark
Never thought you'd fall so far
Fallen angel, close your eyes
I won't let you fall tonight
Fallen angel, just let go
You don't have to be alone
Fallen angel, close your eyes
I won't let you fall tonight
Fallen angel

Papermoon - Tommy Heavenly6 (Cover by Amanda Lee)

I'm falling down into my shadow
Failing to control my breath
As I embrace the deadly night

If you are scared, never show it in your eyes
Near those pumpkin carriages
?Cause all the witches see right through your lies

See you in your dreams, yeah, baby
I?ll still be there if it?s a nightmare

Fairy blue, for you I?d steal the stars
And lay them at our feet
So we could own the night
Black paper moon
I will be the light, believe in me
When you're lost, here I am
"Forever" with your soul

Look above ?cause you belong up there
Beside the shining moon

A spell was cast, sweeter than the crimson jam
Taste it and you get one wish
So, wish for anything you?d like
Your destiny, make it grand or horrible
Grasp it with those hands of yours
?Cause you can live your dreams while still awake

Don?t try to cast a spell on me
You?ll never win ? You?ll never break me

Fairy blue, the reason I?m alive
The reason I can breathe
It?s all because of you
And I?ll pull through

If you reach for me and call my name
I will find you my dear
Wherever you may be
Here and now I swear to break your curse
And I will set you free

It?s true, without you, there were nights
I told myself that I could live on in dusk and darkness
But somehow you reached me
It?s your voice that calls to me when I fall
You are my savior

Fairy blue, for you I?d steal the stars
And lay them at your feet
So they could light a path to guide you home
If you?re ever lost and lose your way
Look up, you?ll be okay
So wipe those tears away

Fairy blue, the reason I?m alive
The reason I can breathe
Is ?cause you are the key that sets me free

So I swear you?ll never be alone
When you're lost, here I am
"Forever" with your soul

We can make it through, if you believe - If you believe in me

My Silver Lining - First Aid Kit

I don't want to wait anymore I'm tired of looking for answers
Take me some place where there's music and there's laughter
I don't know if I'm scared of dying but I'm scared of living too fast, too slow
Regret, remorse, hold on, oh no I've got to go
There?s no starting over, no new beginnings, time races on
And you've just gotta keep on keeping on
Gotta keep on going, looking straight out on the road
Can't worry 'bout what's behind you or what's coming for you further up the road
I try not to hold on to what is gone, I try to do right what is wrong
I try to keep on keeping on
Yeah I just keep on keeping on

I hear a voice calling
Calling out for me
These shackles I've made in an attempt to be free
Be it for reason, be it for love
I won't take the easy road

I've woken up in a hotel room, my worries as big as the moon
Having no idea who or what or where I am
Something good comes with the bad
A song's never just sad
There's hope, there's a silver lining
Show me my silver lining
Show me my silver lining

I hear a voice calling
Calling out for me
These shackles I've made in an attempt to be free
Be it for reason, be it for love
I won't take the easy road

I won't take the easy road
The easy road, the easy road

Show me my silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on
Show me my silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on
Show me my silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on
Show me my silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on

Oblivion - Gunn, Masoyoshi Soken & THE PRIMALS

Staring at death, I take a breath, there's nothing left
Now close my eyes, for one last time, and say goodbye

Lying naked while the snow falls all around me
Drifting closer to the edge but She won't have me

Wake up in sweat, full of regret, try to forget
These memories, lurking beneath, lost in a dream

---

Unchosen paths, a broken past, forespoken wrath
The pain won't cease, I'll find no peace, no sweet release

Fragile creatures, we are taught to fear the Reaper
Ever running, we are dead before we meet Her

These voices telling me let it go (let it all go)
I try and try but I can't say no (try and say no)
This endless nightmare has just begun (nowhere to run)
My heart is dragging me down into oblivion

---

The endless lies, I've cast aside, locked them in ice
Steeled is my soul, my blood grown cold, I've gained control

Fearless creatures, we all learn to fight the Reaper
Can't defeat Her, so instead I'll have to be Her

These voices screaming to let it go (never let go)
This time I'm screaming back no no no (go on say no)
My mind's made up, yeah my fear is gone (Where have you gone?)
Open my eyes now here I come, oblivion

For the last time (I won't say goodbye)
For the last time (I won't say goodbye)
For the last time (I won't say goodbye)
For the last time

Prepare You Weapon - Escape the Fate

I know I suffer
From guilt of past romances
Now that it's over
All hope fades to blackness
I built these fences
I hold myself in darkness
Prepare the weapon
This battle ends when I give in

I lose my head
I lose my mind
(I lose my mind)
Time passes by
Fall out of sight
And I can't look back

I'm losing my fight
Blinded by this light
The truth is gone, gone, gone
Caged in my mind
I am trapped inside
Like a martyr I'm gone, gone, gone

The silence kills me
My arrogance is striking
It's so addicting
Just like the drugs inside me
I'm feeling anger
My hopes cut through the sky
I can no longer
His word cuts me down to size

I lose my head
I lose my mind
(I lose my mind)
Time passes by
Fall out of sight
And I can't look back

I'm losing my fight
Blinded by this light
The truth is gone, gone, gone
Caged in my mind
I am trapped inside
Like a martyr I'm gone, gone,
Gone, gone, gone

I'm losing my fight
Blinded by this light
The truth is gone, gone, gone

I'm alright
Said my goodbyes
The past is gone, gone, gone, gone
I'm alright
Said my goodbyes
The past is gone, gone, gone
I'm alright
Said my goodbyes
The past is gone, gone, gone

I'm alright
I'm alright, I'm alright
I'm alright, I'm alright

Suteki Da Ne - RIKKI (Cover by Amalee)

Winds moved my heart swimming in collected words
Moved by the wind into the world

Clouds like a voice that we all recognize
Carry tomorrow for us all

The moon in the sky has a trembling heart
Shown on the glass unsteadily
Stars crying tears in an overflowing stream
I see the night all around me

Suteki Da Ne
Being together
All alone
Waking hand in hand
And I want to go
To your city
To your home
Into your arms

That is all
Inside your body
From those conflicted nights
As from my dreams

Winds died away
And I feel all the words
Led by a gentle illusion

Clouds are the future that cannot be obtained
Told from impossible distance

Moon filled with night
As it flowed through your heart
Such far away reflections

Stars ripe like tears
Like fruit falls from a tree
I wipe my dreams off the nighttime

Suteki Da Ne
Being together
All alone
Walking hand in hand

And I want to go
To your city
To your home
Into your arms

To feel your face
The touch of memories
And now as I awake
As from a dream

Hail to the King - Avenged Sevenfold

Watch your tongue or have it cut from your head
Save your life by keeping whispers unsaid
Children roam the streets now orphans of war
Bodies hanging in the streets to adore

Royal flames will carve the path in chaos
Bringing daylight to the night
Death is riding in the town with armor
Because thail take all your rights

Hail to the king, hail to the one
Kneel to the crown, stand in the sun
Hail to the king (hail, hail, hail, the king)

Blood is spilled while holding keys to the throne
Born again, but it's too late to atone
No mercy from the edge of the blade
They'll escape and learn the price to be paid

Let the water throw it's shades of red now
Arrows black out all the light
Death is rotting in the town with armor
They've come to grant you your rights

Hail to the king, hail to the one
Kneel to the crown, stand in the sun
Hail to the king (hail, hail, hail, the king)

There's a taste of fear (hail, hail, hail)
When the henchmen call (hail, hail, hail)
Iron fist to tame them (hail, hail, hail)
Iron fist to claim it all (hail, hail, hail)

Hail to the king, hail to the one
Kneel to the crown, stand in the sun

Hail to the king, hail to the one
Kneel to the crown, stand in the sun
Hail to the king (hail, hail, hail)

Moshimo - Daisuke (Cover by Daniel Alvarez)

Upon this path that leads me straight to you
Your shadow's trace will gude me through

In my dreams, I find myself go back in time
To when you were still with me
But then suddenly, you vanished and I'm left alone
With nowhere to proceed

Out of breath, I keep on searching for an answer
That will lead my way to you
Near or far, through the pain and through the scars
I'll catch up to you and show you what I can do

I've come so far so I won't turn back
I'm no longer the weak one that I was long ago
All the past is now gone, so now get ready, set, go!

If it's all inside of a dream
Or if these feelings aren't what they seem
I'll make this dream come true
And have all these feelings born anew
Upon this path that leads me straight to you
Your shadow's trace will guide me through

Even if I suffer through sadness
I'll always give my best
And I'll live through every day as though?
It's as if you never left

If there ever comes a day where all the memories
Inside me fade away
But the sadness deep inside me still persists
With no sign of its decay, then?

I'll remember both all my ups and downs
All mistakes that I had made in my life long ago
Have all built the me of today, so get ready, set, go!

If we meet inside of a dream
And if these feelings shout with a scream
I'll listen to their cry
And make sure that we never again will say goodbye
There's not one doubt; I'll find my way to you
Your shadow's trace will guide me through

Even if I suffer through sadness
I'll always give my best
And I'll live through every day as though
It's as if you never left

Through every day as each hour goes by
Though you just disappeared without any goodbye
All memories that we both had shared will never fade
Cause one day, they'll all be remade

If my dreams reveal you to me
I'll plant your image in my memory
So that when I awake
I'll know where to go to end all of this ache
If we meet inside of a dream
And if these feelings burst at the seams
All burdens that I bear
Will all disappear and release me from their snare

Until I find my way to you
I'll still keep fighting my way through
I will live through all of my days
Just as if you never left
And all of the sadness in my heart
Will at last be put to rest

Fallen Angel - Mitsunori Ikeda (ft. Aimee-B)

Heaven, please sing for me a song of life
Heaven, take me into your skies
There's no place here for me to hide my cries
Night and day, I'm missing you (ooh)

I know I'm here for the magic
All your stars guiding me through and through
(Oh) Why does loneliness feel like forever and ever
I gotta be, I gotta be, in your arms, baby

You're so close, so close
And it's you that I believe in, I believe in
So close, but far away so far I can't touch
I'll hold on

Cuz it's you I love so dearly
When the rain, the storm, and all is done
Caress me with your sweet lullaby

Heaven, please sing for me a song of life
Heaven, save me my dreams tonight
Someday these wings will perish in your sight
Night and day, I call for you (ooh)

Flashing in a moment so tragic
Wandering souls, they fall along the way
Tell me you will never leave me forever and ever
I gotta be, I gotta be, in your arms, hear me

You're so close, so close
And it's you that I believe in, I believe in
So close, but far away I seek for your light
I'll hold on

Cuz for you my heart keeps beating
When the wind, the fire, and all is calm
Caress me with your sweet lullaby

Will you be my light
Will you be my strength
Promise you won't let me go

I'll never betray
(And) in the end of time
Still my love's gonna be there

You're so close, so close
And it's you that I believe in, I believe in
So close, but far away so far I can't touch
I'll hold on

Cuz it's you I love so dearly
When the rain, the storm, and all is done
Caress me with your sweet lullaby

You're so close, so close
And it's you that I believe in, I believe in
So close, but far away, I seek for your light
I'll hold on

Cuz for you my heart keeps beating
When the wind, the fire, and all is calm
Caress me with your sweet lullaby

A Little Pain - Olivia Lufkin

A daydreaming girl's inner turmoils.

Travel to the moon
While you sleep, a dream untangles.
There's no one else here, while we play with the starlight
The two of us together can definitely get back
the smile we forgot and become strong again.

Please realize
I'm here waiting for you
even if the future awaiting us is unlike today
I'm here waiting for you
and I keep on screaming
I'm sure my heart is tugging on the string that binds us,
so that the me back then will open her eyes
No need to cry.

Travel in silence
I'm sure I could touch you if I reached out
but you are far away so that must be in my head.
I can hear your voice, if I close my eyes
even this little pain is dear to me

Please look at me
I'm here waiting for you
even if I'm lost alone, blown upon the wind
I'm here waiting for you
gazing up at the sky
My heart will always open my hands to protect you,
until the you back then will turn and look at me
No need to cry

(feel something feel nothing
listen closely listen closely)
wide open ears
disarm the dream tickler
in the constant moment
(you will find me when it's quiet
listen closely listen closely)
let the blood flow
through all the spaces
of the universe

Please realize
I'm here waiting for you
even if the future awaiting us is unlike today
I'm here waiting for you
and I keep on screaming
I'm sure my heart is tugging on the string that binds us,
so that the me back then will open her eyes
No need to cry.

(listen closely listen closely)
(listen closely listen closely)
(listen closely listen closely)

Memory's Fragments - Nano

The city starts to fade into the setting sun
As I turn my back and walk the lonely road
I felt your hand slip through my fingers once again
And what was left was just a momentary warmth

Every time I felt your touch
It would seep into my heart
If I could hold you for a little longer
And the lingering scent
As you whispered in my ear
Would fade forever in the vivid sky

I hear the sound of your voice
I hear it echo inside my dreams
Turning into memories as they start to fall away
And the tears that I cry
Washed away by the rain
I promise this is where I?ll be

Waiting for you

Without a sound the days are slowly passing by
And the night is like a story without an end
The only light that shines upon the quiet world
Are the stars and they will lead me back to you

As I find another piece of a memory inside
As the story grows a little longer
And the look on your face
As you waved your hand goodbye
Would fade forever in the darkened sky

I drown inside these memories
I feel them fall from the sky above
Washing everything away and staining me in gray
But I will stand in the rain
Until I know that I?ve found you
This is where I?ll always be

Waiting for you

I hear the sound of your voice
I hear it echo inside my dreams
Turning into memories as they start to fall away
And the tears that I cry
Washed away by the rain
I promise this is where I?ll be

Waiting for you
Waiting for you
Waiting for you

No Way Back -The Path of the Lotus- - Ben Franklin

How can I break the fall?
How can I find my way back
To who I was before this shadow fell?

I cannot break the fall
I cannot find my way back
To who I was before the dark of night
Conquered my soul.

I cannot break the fall
I cannot find my way back
The future's so uncertain I can't see

It used to be so clear
But I'm caught inside a misty gloom
I'm fighting crazy shadows
These endless dreams running wild

I must move on and I must not give into
This insane world
It's catching fire 'round me now

I'll rise up
Won't stand down
To anyone's commands, live or die

I won't break
I'm always ready for another round, yeah

I'm alive!

How can I break the fall?
How can I find my way through
This maze of troubles and uncertainty?

I cannot break the fall
I cannot find my way back
The dark is so complete it's blinding me

I used to know the way
But I've lost the prophets word's inside
Now I've got no direction
Who'll be my guiding light?

I must rise up and I must not give into
This insane world
It's got a hold on me now

I'm alright
I'm okay
I'll find my way again, end the fall

I won't break
I'm always ready for another round, yeah
I'll survive!

I must move on and I must not give into
This insane world
It's catching fire 'round me now

I'll rise up
Won't stand down
To anyone's commands, live or die.

I won't break
I'm always ready for another round, yeah...

I'm alive!

F.A.T.E - Akihiri Namba & Takeshi Ueda

I can see you
I can feel you
Cause I know you for too long

Your submission
Your ambition
I don't know why things go wrong

Saw you rise up
Saw you fall down
Now I see you're not too strong

We were younger
We were closer
Why we never walked along

Wanna know why
Wanna know your fantasy
Hope it's not too late

Tears falling from your eyes
No it's no fate

Wanna know why
Wanna know your fantasy
Hope it's not too late

Wipe your tears from your eyes
And stand still on your feet
We're here to stay

Now I see you
Now I feel you
There is something I don't know

Your reaction
Your destruction
There is something you wanna show

Saw you fight it
Saw you lose it
Do you want to let it go

We have grown up
And we broke up
Then we started to walk alone

Wanna know why
Wanna know your fantasy
Hope it's not too late

Tears falling from your eyes
No it's no fate

Wanna know why
Wanna know your fantasy
Hope it's not too late

Wipe your tears from your eyes
And stand still on your feet
We're here to stay
