(+44) - Little Death

Please sleep, my darling, sleep
Your cry for inspiration
Never reaches ears on distant stars
And every night, our lonely planet
Slides across the universe
And I won't pretend I understand

Please sleep, my darling, sleep
Your death by information
Won't disturb the peace on distant stars
And even when you lock the doors
And slide behind the unlit shades
None of us are strangers anymore

Fall asleep with the windows open
Come to me with the worst you've said and done
You'll close your eyes and see me
A little death makes life more meaningful
I stand no chance at all

Please sleep, my darling, sleep
Your car crash in slow motion
Won't upset the pace on distant stars
And one by one the years of our lives
Stumble as the moments pass
So please hold on, please hold on

Fall asleep with the windows open
Come to me with the worst you've said and done
You'll close your eyes and see me
A little death makes life more meaningful
I stand no chance at all

Please sleep, my darling, sleep
Please sleep, my darling, sleep

Fall asleep with the windows open
Come to me with the worst you've said and done
You'll close your eyes and see me
A little death makes life more meaningful
I stand no chance at all

Bif Naked - I Love Myself Today

You left me like a broken doll
In pieces as I took the fall
for you, you dumb chump!
You left me free-falling like space junk
Burning up in the atmosphere of life

Well I sound like a philosopher
but I'm a fool who's off her rocker
'Cause I let you in my heart that one last time

I've had enough, made up my mind
I'm gonna get up and out and wiiild!

I love myself today
Not like yesterday
I'm cool, I'm calm
I'm gonna be okay! Uh huh
I love myself today
Not like yesterday
Take another look at me now
'Cause it's your last look
Your last look forever

Well look at you you're all puffed up
In that big red truck- but you're outta luck (this time)
Well, that's tough
'Cause I'm on fire- too hot to touch
with a chatroom full of lovers on the line
Gonna step right up. Spit shine my soul
I'm gonna be proud and loud and outta control!

I love myself today
Not like yesterday
I'm cool, I'm calm
I'm gonna be okay! Uh huh
I love myself today
Not like yesterday
Take another look at me now
'Cause it's your last look
Your last look forever

I'm lookin' in the mirror and I like what I see
I've lost the fear and the horror that's been eating at me
'Cause being with you is like a hangman's noose
I was living my life in dead man's shoes

I've had enough. Made up my mind
I'm gonna get up and out and wiiild!

I love myself today
Not like yesterday
I'm cool, I'm calm
I'm gonna be okay! Uh huh
I love myself today
Not like yesterday
Take another look at me now

I love myself today
Not like yesterday
You're dead and gone
I'm gonna get my way
I love myself today
Not like yesterday
Take another look at me now
'Cause it's your last look
Your last look forever

I love myself today

The Pretty Reckless - Superhero

All alone again
Searching for something
There's no one left to save me now
I won't be afraid
I just thought you'd catch me
But you're not here to save me now
I've had my share of criminals
And you're no different from them all

I need a superhero
Cause I am just a girl
And I have no one who will go
And save me from this world
Come to me you superhero (save me)
Cause I am just a girl, I know
Cause you're no superhero

What did I expect
I thought you'd help me
But I was crushed and beaten down
Yeah I've had my share of criminals
And you're no different from them all

I need a superhero
Cause I am just a girl
And I have no one who will go
And save me from this world
Come to me you superhero (save me)
Cause I am just a girl, I know
Cause you're no superhero

I'm hanging on the edge of the world
I'm clutching to a string
And my life is crumbling
Down

I need a superhero
Someone to save me
I need a superhero
Someone to save me

I need a superhero (save me)
Cause I am just a girl
And I have no one who will go
And save me from this world
Come to me you superhero (save me)
Cause I am just a girl, I know
Cause you're no superhero

Little Big Town - Bones

What goes around comes around,
Feel it breathin' down heavy on you.
You made that bed you're layin' on.
Deeds that you have done,
Now you can't undo.

You've got bones in your closet.
You've got ghosts in your town.
Ain't no doubt, dear,
They're gonna come out,
They're waiting for the sun to go down.
You can't hide from your demons.
Feel them all lurking around.
You're runnin' scared cause,
You know they're out there.
They're waiting for the sun to go down.

It's a long and hard row to hoe,
When seeds that you sow,
Grow by the wicked moon.
Be sure your sins will find you out.
Your past will hunt you down,
And return to tell on you.

You've got bones in your closet.
You've got ghosts in your town.
Ain't no doubt, dear,
They're gonna come out,
They're waiting for the sun to go down.
You can't hide from your demons.
Feel them all lurking around.
You're runnin' scared cause,
You know they're out there.
They're waiting for the sun to go down.

Oh, it stands to reason,
Every dog will have his day.
But your day is leavin'.
Better hold on tight,
Here comes the night.

You've got bones in your closet.
You've got ghosts in your town.
Ain't no doubt, dear,
They're gonna come out,
They're waiting for the sun to go down.
You can't hide from your demons.
Feel them all lurking around.
You're runnin' scared cause,
You know they're out there.
They're waiting for the sun to go down.

They're waiting for the sun to go down.
What goes around comes around,
Feel it breathin' down heavy on you.

Green Day - She's a Rebel

She's a rebel,
She's a saint,
She's the salt of the earth,
And she's dangerous.
She's a rebel,
Vigilante,
Missing link on the brink of destruction.
From Chicago,
To Toronto,
She's the one that they call old whats'ername.
She's the symbol,
Of resistance,
And she's holding on my heart like a hand grenade.

Is she dreaming,
What I'm thinking?
Is she the mother of all bombs gonna detonate?
Is she trouble,
Like I'm trouble?
Make it a double twist of fate or a melody that,
she sings the revolution,
The dawning of our lives.
She brings this liberation,
That I just can't define,
Well nothing comes to mind.

She sings the revolution,
The dawning of our lives.
She brings this liberation,
That I just can't define,
Well nothing comes to mind.

She's a rebel,
She's a saint,
She's the salt of the earth,
And she's dangerous.
She's a rebel,
Vigilante,
Missing link on the brink of destruction.

She's a rebel, she's a rebel, she's a rebel,
And she's dangerous.

Kill Hannah - They Can't Save Us Now

So this is how it is to be alone.
Your heart beats like it's cracked and made of stone,
But whenever someone asks just say there's nothing wrong.

They can't save us now,
'Cause we're far away from home,
And there's no where else to go.
They can't save us now,
'Cause we're lost and won't be found.
We can scream so loud,
But they can't save us now.

So this is how it feels to be insane,
The world looks like a movie always playing.
But how can hearts so young feel so much pain?

They can't save us now,
'Cause we're far away from home,
And there's no where else to go.
They can't ever save us now.

Tom Petty - Learning To Fly

Well I started out down a dirty road
Started out all alone
And the sun went down, as I crossed the hill
And the town lit up, the world got still

I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing

Well the good ol' days, may not return
And the rocks might melt & the sea may burn

I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing

Well some say life will beat you down, break your heart, steal your crown
So I've started out, for God knows where
I guess I'll know when I get there

I'm learning to fly, around the clouds,
But what goes up must come down

I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing

(+44) - Lillian

The place I used to live, made me feel like a tourist
I couldn't coexist with the cold and suspicious
When the last remaining left was starting to filter
It seemed the perfect time to step into the future

Your heart is no grave to be perfectly honest
Your mouth's a smoking gun
And you smile while your twisting the knife in my stomach
Until everything is gone
Take all you can from me
I've got weak constitution
I'm led so easily
So easily

I left it all behind, in the dead of last winter
I left it all behind, but the question still lingers
So long forgotten friends, no, you don't know the difference
Between love and submission, and I'm not that obedient

Your heart is no grave, to be perfectly honest
Your mouth's a smoking gun
And you smile while your twisting the knife in my stomach
Until everything is gone
Take all you can from me
I've got weak constitution
I'm led so easily
So easily

And she's trying to sleep it off
With her head on my shoulder
And I'm trying to keep it out
Of my thoughts when I hold her (Take all you can from me)
And I'm trying to sleep it off
With her head on my shoulder (I'm led so easily)
And I'm trying to figure out
Of my thoughts when I hold her

Your heart is no grave, to be perfectly honest
Your mouth's a smoking gun
And you smile while your twisting the knife in my stomach
Until everything is gone
Take all you can from me
I've got weak constitution
I'm led so easily
So easily

Green Day - Boulevard of Broken Dreams

I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know where it goes
But it's home to me and I walk alone

I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
and I'm the only one and I walk alone

I walk alone, I walk alone
I walk alone, I walk a...

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Til then I walk alone

I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the border line
Of the edge and where I walk alone

Read between the lines
What's fxcked up and everything's alright
Check my vital signs
To know I'm still alive and I walk alone

I walk alone, I walk alone
I walk alone, I walk a...

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Til then I walk alone

I walk alone, I walk a...

I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk a...

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Til then I walk alone

Incubus - Make Yourself

If I hadn't made me
I would've been made somehow
If I hadn't assembled myself
I'dve fallen apart by now

If I hadn't made me
I'd be more inclined to bow
Powers that would have swallowed me up,
But that's more than I can allow
If you let them make you,
They'll make you paper-mache

At a distance you're strong
Until the wind comes,
Then you crumble and blow away
If you let them fxck you,
There will be no foreplay

But rest assured
They'll screw you complete
'Til your a ss is blue and grey

You should make amends with you
If only for better health
But if you really want to live
Why not try and Make Yourself?

If I hadn't made me
I'dve fallen apart by now
I wont let em' make me
It's more than I can allow

So when I make me
I wont be paper-mache.
And if I fxck me....
I'll fxck me in my own way

You should make amends with you
If only for better health
But if you really want to live
why not try and Make Yourself?
Make Yourself

Josh Joplin Group - I've Changed

I wanted perfection from every song I?ve ever sung
But that was wrong
And I wanted something from every person I?ve ever loved
But that was wrong

And I?ve changed, I?ve changed
I?ve reconsidered everything
I?m fine now, I?m fine now
I laid the barrel in my mouth
And everything I thought before
I won?t think anymore
I?ve changed, I?ve changed, I?ve changed

I wanted to be the greatest at everything
But I can?t be
And I wanted to be exempt from temptation
But I can?t be

And I?ve changed, I?ve changed
I?ve reconsidered everything
I?m fine now, I?m fine now
I laid the barrel in my mouth
And everything I thought before
I won?t think anymore
I?ve changed, I?ve changed, I?ve changed

And I wanted your love to be ever lasting
But it isn?t
I wanted life to be an easier proposition
But it isn?t

And I?ve changed, I?ve changed
I?ve reconsidered everything
I?m fine now, I?m fine now
I laid the barrel in my mouth
And everything I thought before
I won?t think anymore
I?ve changed, I?ve changed, I?ve changed

Bright Eyes - Something Vague

Now and again it seems worse than it is,
but mostly the view is accurate.
You see your breath in the air
as you climb up the stairs to
that coffin you call your apartment.

And you sink in your chair,
brush the snow from your hair
and drink the cold away.

And You are not really sure
what you're doing this for
but you need something to fill up the days.
A few more hours.

There's a dream in my brain
that just won?t go away.
It's been stuck there since it came
a few nights ago

and I?m standing on a bridge
in the town where I lived
as a kid with my mom and my brothers.

And then the bridge disappears
and I?m standing on air
with nothing holding me.
And I hang like a star,
fxcking glow in the dark,
for all those starving eyes to see,
like the ones we?ve wished on.

Now I?m confused.
Is this death really you?
Do these dreams have any meaning?

No. No, I think it is more like a ghost
that has been following us both.
Something vague that we're not seeing,
something more like a feeling.

I Hate Myself - Song For All The Young Casanovas And Casnovettes

I suggest you only ever tell lies,
Because once you tell the truth they'll break your heart.
Don't ever look them in the eyes,
Because those eyes are gonna rip your heart apart.
I recommend you keep your distance,
Because once you get too close , you'll lose control.
Don't ever fall in love; just stay buried in your lonely hole.
Take it from experience: desperate acts are ridiculous.
Don't ever tell the truth, because the ones you love will do the same to you.

Pink - Sober

I don't wanna be the girl who laughs the loudest,
Or the girl who never wants to be alone.
I don't wanna be that call at 4 o'clock in the morning,
'Cause I'm the only one you know in the world that won't be home.

The sun is blinding.
I stayed up again.
I am finding,
That's not the way I want my story to end.

I'm safe, Up high,
Nothing can touch me.
But why do I feel this party's over?
No pain, Inside,
You're my protection.
But how do I feel this good sober?

I don't wanna be the girl who has to fill the silence,
The quiet scares me 'cause it screams the truth.
Please don't tell me that we had that conversation.
'Cause I won't remember, save your breath 'cause what's the use?

The night is calling,
And it whispers to me softly come and play.
I am falling,
And If I let myself go I'm the only one to blame.

I'm safe, Up high,
Nothing can touch me.
But why do I feel this party's over?
No pain, Inside,
You're like perfection.
But how do I feel this good sober?

Comin' down, comin' down, comin' down.
Spinnin' 'round, spinnin' 'round, spinnin' 'round.
Looking for myself,
Sober.

When it's good, then it's good, it's all good till it goes bad.
Till you're trying to find the you that you once had.
I have heard myself cry, never again.
Broken down in agony just tryna find a friend.

I'm safe, Up high,
Nothing can touch me.
But why do I feel this party's over?
No pain, Inside,
You're like protection.
But how do I feel this good sober?

Florence & The Machine - Heavy In Your Arms

I was a heavy heart to carry
My beloved was weighed down
My arms around his neck
My fingers laced a crown
I was a heavy heart to carry
My feet dragged across the ground
And he took me to the river
Where he slowly let me drown

My love has concrete feet, my love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles, over the waterfall

I'm so heavy. Heavy. Heavy in your arms.
I'm so heavy. Heavy. Heavy in your arms.

And is it worth the wait,
All this killing time?
Are you strong enough to stand,
Protecting both your heart and mine?
Who is the betrayer?
Who's the killer in the crowd?
The one who creeps in corridors
And doesn't make a sound

My love has concrete feet, my love is an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles, over the waterfall
My love has concrete feet, my love is an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles, over the waterfall

I'm so heavy. Heavy. Heavy in your arms.
I'm so heavy. Heavy. So heavy in your arms.

This will be my last confession
"I love you" never felt like any blessing
Whisper it like it's a secret
Uttered to condemn the one who hears it
With a heavy heart

Heavy. Heavy. Heavy. I'm so heavy in your arms.
(I'm so heavy) Heavy, heavy. I'm so heavy in your arms.
(I'm so heavy) Heavy, heavy. I'm so heavy in your arms.
(I'm so heavy) Heavy, heavy. I'm so heavy in your arms.

I was a heavy heart to carry
My beloved was weighed down
My arms around his neck
My fingers laced a crown
I was a heavy heart to carry
But he never let me down
When he held me in his arms
My feet never touched the ground

I'm so heavy
Heavy in your arms

Heavy. I'm so heavy in your arms.

The Pretty Reckless - Everybody Wants Something From Me

Take a piece of my life
Take a piece of my soul
Take a piece of my face
So I can never grow old

And take a piece of my world
Take a piece of my heart
Take a piece of my brain
So I can never be smart

Everybody wants to see me down
Leave my body on the dirty ground
Everybody wants

I want you to abuse me, use me, shut up and do me
'Cause everybody wants something from me
Grab me, stab me, go on and have me
'Cause everybody wants something from me
Everybody wants something from me

Take a drink of my drink
Take a drag on my drag
Take a shoot at the good
And take a pill for the bad

Take your momma's advice
So you can do what is right
Take a knife to the bed
Take a gun to the fight

Everybody wants to see me down
Everybody wants

I want you to abuse me, use me, shut up and do me
'Cause everybody wants something from me
Grab me, stab me, go on and have me
'Cause everybody wants something from me
Everybody wants something from me

Abuse me, use me, shut up and do me

Yeah, everybody wants something from me

Jake Owen - Ghosts

said some things they cast long shadows
That I never will out run
And everyday I do battle
With the ghost of all the things I've done wrong

Grab a chair cause the list is long
I can write you a country song
About the reasons I'll be going home
To a house full of memories
Things I wish I done differently
And when I'm feeling weak they keep me strong
The ghosts of all the things that I've done wrong

I got a heart full of memories
Things I wish I done differently
And when I'm feeling weak they keep me strong
The ghost of all the things I've done wrong

Bruno Mars - Liquor Store Blues

Standing at this liquor store
Whiskey coming through my pores
Feeling like I run this whole block
Lotto tickets and cheap beer
That's why you can catch me here
Tryna scratch my way up to the top

Because my job got me going nowhere
So I ain't got a thing to lose
Take me to a place where I don't care
This is me and my liquor store blues

I'll take one shot for my pain, One drag for my sorrow
Get messed up today, I'll be okay tomorrow
One shot for my pain, One drag for my sorrow
Get messed up today, I'll be okay tomorrow

Me and my guitar tonight
Singing to the city lights
Tryna live on more than what I got
Cause '68 Citrus ain't gonna pay the rent
So I'll be out here 'til they call the cops

Because my job got me going nowhere
So I ain't got a thing to lose
Take me to a place where I don't care
This is me and my liquor store blues

I'll take one shot for my pain, One drag for my sorrow
Get messed up today, I'll be okay tomorrow
One shot for my pain, One drag for my sorrow
Get messed up today, I'll be okay tomorrow

Ke$ha - Take It Off

There's a place downtown
Where the freaks all come around.
It's a hole in the wall.
It's a dirty free for all.

When the dark
Of the night comes around.
That's the time
That the animal comes alive.
Looking for
Something wild.

And now we lookin' like pimps
In my gold Trans-Am.
Got a water bottle full of whiskey
In my handbag.
Got my drunk text on
I'll regret it in the mornin'
But tonight
I don't give a
I don't give a
I don't give a

There's a place downtown,
Where the freaks all come around.
It's a hole in the wall.
It's a dirty free for all.

And they turn me on.
When they Take It Off.
When they Take It Off.
Everybody Take It Off.

There's a place I know
If you're looking for a show.
Where they go hardcore
And there's glitter on the floor.

And they turn me on.
When they Take It Off.
When they Take It Off.
Everybody Take It Off.

Lose your mind.
Lose it now.
Lose your clothes
In the crowd.
We're delirious.
Tear it down
'Til the sun comes back around.

N-now we're getting so smashed.
Knocking over trash cans.
Everybody breakin' bottles
It's a filthy hot mess.
Gonna get faded
I'm not the designated
Driver so
I don't give a
I don't give a
I don't give a

There's a place downtown,
Where the freaks all come around.
It's a hole in the wall.
It's a dirty free for all.

And they turn me on.
When they Take It Off.
When they Take It Off.
Everybody Take It Off.

There's a place I know
If you're looking for a show.
Where they go hardcore
And there's glitter on the floor.

And they turn me on.
When they Take It Off.
When they Take It Off.
Everybody Take It Off.

Avril Lavigne - Alice

Trippin out
Spinning around
I'm underground
I fell down
Yeah I fell down

I'm freaking out, where am I now?
Upside down and I can't stop it now
Can't stop me now, oh oh

I'll get by
I'll survive
When the world's crashing down
When I fall and hit the ground
I will turn myself around
Don't you try to stop me
I won't cry

I found myself in Wonderland
Got back on my feet, again
Is this real?
Is this pretend?
I'll take a stand until the end

I'll get by
I'll survive
When the world's crashing down
When I fall and hit the ground
I will turn myself around
Don't you try to stop me
I won't cry

We're gonna lose our minds tonight,
What's the deal, yo?

I love when it's all too much,

Don't be fancy, just get dancey
Why so serious?

So raise your glass if you are wrong,
In all the right ways,
All my underdogs,
We will never be never be anything but loud
And nitty gritty dirty little freaks
Won't you come on and come on and raise your glass,
Just come on and come on and raise your glass

Slam slam, oh hot damn
What part of party don't you understand,
Wish you'd just freak out (freak out already)
Can't stop, coming in hot,
I should be locked up right on the spot
It's so on right now (so f*ckin' on right now)

Party Crasher,
Penny Snatcher,
Call me up if you want gangsta
Don't be fancy, just get dancey

Ke$ha - We Are Who We Are

Hot and dangerous
If you?re one of us, then roll with us
?Cause we make the hipsters fall in love
And we?ve got hot-pants on enough
And yes of course because we?re running this town just like a club
And no, you don?t wanna mess with us
Got Jesus on my necklace

I?ve got that glitter on my eyes
Stockings ripped all up the side
Looking sick and sexy-fied
So let?s go-o-o (Let?s go!)

Tonight we?re going hard
Just like the world is ours
We?re tearin? it apart
You know we?re superstars
We are who we are!
We?re dancing like we?re dumb
Our bodies go numb
We?ll be forever young
You know we?re superstars
We are who we are!

DJ turn it up
It?s about damn time to live it up
I?m so sick of being so serious
It?s making my brain delirious!
I?m just talkin? truth

I?m telling you ?bout the s? we do
We?re sellin? our clothes, sleepin? in cars
Dressin? it down, hittin? on dudes (HARD!)

I?ve got that glitter on my eyes
Stockings ripped all up the side
Looking sick and sexy-fied
So let?s go-o-o (Let?s go!)

Tonight we?re going hard
Just like the world is ours
We?re tearin? it apart
You know we?re superstars
We are who we are!
We?re dancing like we?re dumb
Our bodies go numb
We?ll be forever young
You know we?re superstars
We are who we are!

Semi Precious Weapons - Rock 'N' Roll Never Looked So Good

Sometimes you go to sleep in your make-up
Sometimes you take off your pants when you wake up
Sometimes you walk a bridge in your girl shoes
It's okay if you're late because they will always love you

Sometimes I dream so big
My life just seems so boring

Rock 'n' roll never looked so beautiful
Rock 'n' roll never looked so beautiful

Sometimes you bleach your head till it burns
Sometimes your friends tag team and take turns
Sometimes you walk a bridge at midnight
Because when you're broke walking ain't just for the transit strike

Sometimes I dream so big
My life just seems so boring

Rock 'n' roll never looked so beautiful
Rock 'n' roll never looked so beautiful

Sometimes I cry because it makes my eyes look greener
Sometimes I bleed because red is a good color for me, yeah

Put me in a see through coffin
Stuff me up with minx doll stuffing
Put me in a crystal casket
Before they mix diamonds into my ashes

Dance around my body
Just because I'm dead don't kill the party

Rock 'n' roll never looked so beautiful
Rock 'n' roll never looked so beautiful

Taylor Swift - Innocent

I guess you really did it this time
Left yourself in your warpath
Lost your balance on a tightrope
Lost your mind tryin' to get it back

Wasn't it easier in your lunchbox days?
Always a bigger bed to crawl into
Wasn't it beautiful when you believed in everything?
And everybody believed in you?

It's all right, just wait and see
Your string of lights is still bright to me
Oh, who you are is not where you've been
You're still an innocent

There's some things you can't speak of
But tonight you'll live it all again
You wouldn't be shattered on the floor now
If only you would sing what you know now then

Wasn't it easier in your firefly-catchin' days?
And everything out of reach, someone bigger brought down to you
Wasn't it beautiful runnin' wild 'til you fell asleep?
Before the monsters caught up to you?

It's all right, just wait and see
Your string of lights is still bright to me
Oh, who you are is not where you've been
You're still an innocent

It's okay, life is a tough crowd
21, and still growin' up now
Who you are is not what you did
You're still an innocent

Time turns flames to embers
You'll have new Septembers
Every one of us has messed up too

Lives change like the weather
I hope you remember
Today is never to late to
Be brand new

It's all right, just wait and see
Your string of lights are still bright to me
Oh, who you are is not where you've been
You're still an innocent

It's okay, life is a tough crowd
21, and still growin' up now
Who you are is not what you did
You're still an innocent

Neon Trees - Animal

Here we go again
I kinda wanna be more than friends
So take it easy on me
I'm afraid you're never satisfied

Here we go again
We're sick like animals
We play pretend
You're just a cannibal

And I'm afraid I wont get out alive
No I won't sleep tonight

Oh, oh, I want some more
Oh, oh, What are you waitin' for?
Take a bite of my heart tonight
Oh oh, I want some more
Oh oh, What are you waitin' for?
What are you waitin' for?
Say goodbye to my heart tonight

Here we are again
I feel the chemicals kickin' in
It's gettin' heavier
I wanna run and hide
I wanna run and hide

I do it every time
You're killin' me now
And I won't be denied by you
The animal inside of you

Oh, oh, I want some more
Oh, oh, What are you waitin' for?
Take a bite of my heart tonight.
Oh oh, I want some more
Oh oh, What are you waitin' for?
What are you waitin' for?
Say goodbye to my heart tonight

Hush, hush, The world is quiet
Hush, hush, We both can't fight it
It's us that made this mess
Why can't you understand?
Whoa, I won't sleep tonight

Oh, oh, I want some more
Oh, oh, What are you waitin' for?
Take a bite of my heart tonight.
Oh oh, I want some more
Oh oh, What are you waitin' for?
What are you waitin' for?
Say goodbye to my heart tonight.

The Pretty Reckless - Since You're Gone

Since you hide, since you steal
Since you hate everything I feel
Since you cheat, since you lie
Since you don't wanna try things I wanna try

Since you been gone
My life has moved along quite nicely actually

Got a lot more friends and I don't have to pretend
Since you're gone, since you're gone

Since you're not what I want
You can take everything I've got
Take the seat, take the drive
If I say I love you, I am a liar

Since you been gone
My life has moved along quite nicely actually

Well, meet my lover and I don't have to pretend
Since you're gone, since you're gone

I've been looking for a new direction, anyway
I've been thinkin' bout my own protection, instead

Now that you're gone my life has moved along
Now that you're gone

Since you hide, since you steal
Since you hate everything I feel
Since you cheat, since you lie
Since you don't wanna try things I wanna try

Since you been gone
My life has moved along quite nicely actually

Quite nicely actually, quite nicely actually
Quite nicely actually, quite nicely, thanks for asking

The Pretty Reckless - Light Me Up

Does what I'm wearing seem to shock you?
Well that's okay
'Cause what I'm thinking about you
is not okay
Got it on my mind to change my ways

But I don't think I can be anything other than me
I don't think I can be anything other than me

Do you have a light, can you make me feel alright
There's plenty of light to go around
If you think it's right when you hit me to the ground
Well light me up when I'm down
Light me up when I'm down

Does what I'm saying seem to haunt you?
Well that's okay
'Cause what I'm saying about you
Is not okay
Got it on my mind to change my ways

But I don't think I can be anything other than me
I don't think I can be anything other than me

Do you have a light, can you make me feel alright
There's plenty of light to go around
If you think it's right when you hit me to the ground
Well light me up when I'm down
Light me up when I'm down

Light me up when I'm down
Light me up when I'm down

Does what I'm taking seem to bother you?
Well that's okay
'Cause I can take it all without you
And I'm okay
Got it on my mind to change my ways

But I don't think I can be anything other than me
I don't think I can be anything other than me

Do you have a light, can you make me feel alright
There's plenty of light to go around
If you think it's right when you hit me to the ground
Well light me up when I'm down
Light me up when I'm down

The Pretty Reckless - Just Tonight

Here we are and I can't think from all the pills, hey
Start the car and take me home
Here we are and you?re too drunk to hear a word I say
Start the car and take me home

Just tonight I will stay
And we?ll throw it all away
When the light hits your eyes
It?s telling me I?m right
And if I, I am through
Then it?s all because of you
Just tonight

Here I am and I can?t seem to see straight
I?m too numb to feel right now
And here I am watching the clock that?s ticking away my time
I?m too numb to feel right now

Just tonight I will stay
And we?ll throw it all away
When the light hits your eyes
It?s telling me I?m right
And if I, I am through
Then it?s all because of you
Just tonight

Do you understand who I am
Do you wanna know
Can you really see through me now
I am about to go

Just tonight I won?t leave
And I?ll lie and you?ll believe
Just tonight I will see
It?s all because of me

Just tonight I will stay
And we?ll throw it all away
When the light hits your eyes
It?s telling me I?m right
And if I, I am through
It?s all because of you
Just tonight

(Do you understand who I am)
It?s all because of you
Just tonight

The Pretty Reckless - Miss Nothing

I'm miss autonomy, miss nowhere
I'm at the bottom of me
Miss androgyny, miss don?t care
What I've done to me

I am misused, I don?t wanna do
Be not your slave
Misguided, I mind it, I'm missin the train

And I don't know where I've been
And I don't know what I'm into
And I don't know what I've done to me

And as I watch you disappear into the ground
My one mistake was that I never let you down
So I'll waste my time, and I'll burn my mind
On miss nothing, miss everything

I?m miss fortune, miss so soon
I?m like a bottle of pain
Miss matter you had her
now she?s goin? away

I'm misused, misconstrued
I don?t need to be saved
Miss slighted, I mind it
I'm stuck in the rain

And I don't know where I am
And I don't know what I'm into
And I don't know what I've done to me

And as I watch you disappear into the ground
My one mistake was that I never let you down
So I'll waste my time, and I'll burn my mind
On miss nothing, miss everything
Miss stealing, Miss everything

And as I watch you disappear into my head
Well, there's a man who?s telling me I might be dead
So I'll waste my time, and I'll burn my mind
So I?ll waste my time, and I'll burn my mind
On Miss Nothing, Miss Everything!

The Pretty Reckless - Blonde Rebellion

Hurry baby and turn the knob
You don't know you've got me 'til I'm gone
Shut my eyes and count to ten
Do it again, just do it again

Dug my nails in and turned the key
Stupid boy, have you ever really looked at me
Pick my lock and you will see
Come on baby, come on baby

'Cause all I am is a blonde rebellion
Won't hurt you, but I might hurt someone
Break you down 'til you're begging me to

You don't know me 'til you've seen me cry
You don't own me, you won't until the day that we die
You don't notice that I try for you
Only you, it's only you

'Cause all I am is a blonde rebellion
Won't hurt you, but I might hurt someone
Break you down 'til you're begging me to

Atreyu - A Song For The Optimists

Blow the last candle out.
Let the wax harden.
I wish I could stop crying.
I wish that someone still loved me.

Just breathe and focus.
How can I when the air is so cold and empty,
that my lungs froze right in my chest?

I'll be honest
the silver linings are getting harder and harder to manufacture,
and the smiles are so difficult to fake.

What do I have to do
or who do I have to kill,
to get what I want... what I need?

Happiness is an emotion
I was born to this world without.
Nothing pleases me.
I can never be satiated.
Through this toil I will breed my own distress
and destroy my best hopes;
f*ck up the only things (that I love).

I watched my aspirations crash in to the ground
on the backs of the angels that I've slain.
But I meant so well;
I tried to hard;
gave every bit of my soul;
to what end?
TO WHAT END!?

Desolation, desire, exhale, pass away.
Desolation, desire, exhale, pass away.
Desolation, desire, exhale, pass away.

Devo - Girl U Want

She sings from somewhere you can't see
She sits in the top of the greenest tree
She sends out an aroma of undefined love
It drips on down in a mist from above

She's just the girl, just the girl
That you want
She's just the girl, just the girl
That you want

You hear her calling everywhere you turn
You know you're headed for the pleasure burn
But the words get stuck on the tip of your tongue
She's the real thing but you knew it all along

She's just the girl, just the girl
That you want
She's just the girl, just the girl
That you want

Look at you with your mouth watering
Look at you with your mind reeling
Why don't we just admit it's all over
Just the girl you want

She's just the girl, just the girl
That you want
She's just the girl, just the girl
That you want

She sings from somewhere you can't see
She sits in the top of the greenest tree
She sends out an aroma of undefined lust
It drips on down in a mist from above

She's just the girl, just the girl
That you want
She's just the girl, just the girl
That you want

Look at you with your mouth watering
Look at you with your mind spinnin'
Why don't we just admit it's all over
Just the girl you want

She's just the girl, just the girl
That you want
She's just the girl, just the girl
That you want

Ice-T - Big Gun

It's goin' down, yo the girl got a gun
Best run, because she's quick to flip and empty out the clip
And the man understand where she is comin' from
The hardcore is connected to the base of her fate
She just breaks and brings drama to the situation
Ejaculation of her projectile, she's buck wild
Better recognize that she comes, she comes correct
Collects respect and if not, you'll catch a broken neck
Buddy, look down and your shirt is all bloody
Looks like she caught you with the bad one
For messin' with the mad one
Told you about this girl before, you didn't listen to me as I talk
No you stalked, by the hunter of the fronter
Who's size five and sexy
Quick to catch your body and another one next week
Huh, it doesn't matter cause the girl stays strapped
She said she had enough of men and now she's lookin' for payback
And there's no way that you can fade her son
She walks softly but she carries the big gun

She walks softly but she carries the big gun
And there's no way that you can fade her son
She walks softly but she carries the big gun

The most venomous feminist, homey she ain't soft
You give her trouble then she might cut your head off
Or somethin' that you like to think's the best
She'll blow big holes in your chest
She said she gotta cause she says a lotta ladies won't
She said she gotta cause she says a lotta ladies don't
He said she gotta cause she says a lotta ladies can't
He said she gotta cause she knows a lotta ladies
Romance the thoughts of giving men their own medicine
Electrocute them, light them up like Con Edison
She got no fear, five rings in her ear
Holes in her nose, way out clothes
Livin' life to the fullest, buckshots and bullets
Triggers she'll pull it, Earth she wanna rule it
Maybe she will cause she is quick to kill
The city lights make her dresses tight, yes she bites
You'll never know where she'll comin' from
she walks softly but she carries the big gun

She walks softly but she carries the big gun
And there's no way that you can fade her son
She walks softly but she carries the big gun

She got no time to trip or argue, you're through
I bet she gets you
Homeboy'll catch a stretcher like so many before
She is on the Bodycount tour, but not rock
She couldn't sucker punks and cops
You say she is nothin' but a woman then you'll come up shot
You say why you wanna kill and she says why not
Pop, she got a body that'll make you cry
Pop, she got a shotty that'll make you die
Don't bring drama to her homey cause you'll wind up flat
She'll put you horizontal then she'll pull your cap
She got no love, and love is somethin' that she never had
She loved the mother but she hated the mothaf*ckin' dad
So stay the hell out her way, cause the girl don't play none
She walks softly but she carries the big gun

She walks softly but she carries the big gun
And there's no way that you can fade her son
She walks softly but she carries the big gun

Godsmack - Whiskey Hangover

So what if I never wanna be sober?
So what if I wanna be numb all the time?
I cant justify why I'd wanna go slower.
Taking my time just ain't my style, yeah.

I walk dead or alive.
I waste my time whenever I like.
I'm feelin' okay, with my whiskey hangover.

So what you cleaned your act up so far.
So what if I'm pissing into the wind, again?
Have you ever thought that I'm not who you are? (baby)
'Cause even when I lose I know how to win again. (And again and again)
So sick of you preaching all the time.
Just keep your sh*tty advice inside.

'Cause I walk dead or alive.
I waste my time whenever I like.
I'm feelin' okay with my whiskey hangover.

One sip ain't gonna do sh*t.
In the second sip I begin to admit
That the third one down is what makes me feel alright.
And number four I slam down to the floor.
By five I'm ready to fight all night.
And then six, seven, eight to make me break your face
Sometimes.

'Cause I walk dead or alive.
I waste my time whenever I like.
I'm feelin' okay with my whiskey hangover.
With my whiskey hangover.

Johnny Cash - Hurt

I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything
What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt

I will let you down
I will make you hurt

I wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here

What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt

I will let you down
I will make you hurt

If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

Lily Allen - The Fear

I want to be rich and I want lots of money
I don?t care about clever I don?t care about funny
I want loads of clothes and f*ck loads of diamonds
I heard people die while they are trying to find them

And I?ll take my clothes off and it will be shameless
Cause everyone knows that?s how you get famous
I?ll look at the sun and I?ll look in the mirror
I?m on the right track yeah I?m on to a winner

I don?t know what?s right and what?s real anymore
I don?t know how I?m meant to feel anymore
When do you think it will all become clear?
?Cause I?m being taken over by the fear

Life?s about film stars and less about mothers
It?s all about fast cars and cussing each other
But it doesn?t matter cause I?m packing plastic
and that?s what makes my life so f*cking fantastic

And I am a weapon of massive consumption
And its not my fault it?s how I?m programmed to function
I?ll look at the sun and I?ll look in the mirror
I?m on the right track yeah we're on to a winner

I don?t know what?s right and what?s real anymore
I don?t know how I?m meant to feel anymore
When do you think it will all become clear?
?Cause I?m being taken over by the fear

Forget about guns and forget ammunition
Cause I?m killing them all on my own little mission
Now I?m not a saint but I?m not a sinner
Now everything's cool as long as I?m gettin' thinner

I don?t know what?s right and what?s real anymore
I don?t know how I?m meant to feel anymore
When do you think it will all become clear?
?Cause I?m being taken over by the fear

P!nk - U + UR Hand

Check it out
Going out
On the late night
Looking tight
Feeling nice
It's a c*ck-fight
I can tell
I just know
That it's going down
Tonight
At the door we don't wait cause we know them
At the bar six shots just beginning
That's when dickhead put his hands on me
But you see

You don't really want to mess with me tonight
Just stop and take a second

Cause you know it's over
Before it began
Keep your drink just give me the money
It's just you and your hand tonight

Midnight

I don't give a f*ck
Wanna dance
By myself
Guess you're outta luck
Don't touch
Back up

Buh-bye
Listen up it's just not happening
You can say what you want to your boyfriends
Just let me have my fun tonight
Alight?

I'm not here for your entertainment
You don't really want to mess with me tonight
Just stop and take a second
I was fine before you walked into my life
Cause you know it's over
Before it began
Keep your drink just give me the money
It's just you and your hand tonight

So quit spilling your drinks on me yeah

April March - Chick Habit

Hang up the chick habit
Hang it up, daddy,
Or you'll be alone in a quick
Hang up the chick habit
Hang it up, daddy,
Or you'll never get another fix

I'm telling you it's not a trick
Pay attention, don't be thick
Or you're liable to get licked

You're gonna see the reason why
When they're spitting in your eye
They'll be spitting in your eye

Hang up the chick habit
Hang it up, daddy,
A girl's not a tonic or a pill
Hang up the chick habit
Hang it up, daddy,
You're just jonesing for a spill

Oh, how your bubble's gonna burst
When you meet another nurse
She'll be driving in a hearse

You're gonna need a heap of glue
When they all catch up with you
And they cut you up in two

Now your ears are ringing
The birds have stopped their singing
Everything is turning grey

No candy in your till
No cutie left to thrill
You're alone on a tuesday

Hang up the chick habit
Hang it up, daddy,
Or you'll be alone in a quick
Hang up the chick habit
Hang it up, daddy,
Or you'll never get another fix

I'm telling you it's not a trick
Pay attention, don't be thick
Or you're liable to get licked

You're gonna see the reason why
When they're spitting in your eye
They'll be spitting in your eye

Carried Underwood - Last Name

Last night I got served a little bit too much of that poison baby
Last night I did things I'm not proud of
And I got a little crazy
Last night I met a guy on the dance floor
And I let him call me baby

And I don't even know his last name
Oh, my mama would be so ashamed
It started off "Hey cutie, where ya from?"
And then it turned in,
"Oh no, what have I done?"
And I don't even know his last name

We left the club right around three o'clock in the morning
His Pinto sitting there in the parking lot Well it should have been a warning
I had no clue what I was getting into
So I blame it on the Cuervo
Oh where did my manners go?

And I don't even know his last name
Oh, my mama would be so ashamed
It started off "Hey cutie, where ya from?"
And then it turned in,
"Oh no, what have I done?"
And I don't even know his last name
Here we go...

Today I woke up thinkin' about Elvis somewhere in Vegas
I'm not sure how I got here
Or how this ring on my left hand just appeared out of nowhere
I gotta go
I take the chips and the Pinto and hit the road
They say what happens here stays here
All of this will disappear
There's just one little problem...

I don't even know my last name
Oh my mama would be so ashamed
It started off "Hey cutie, where ya from?"
And then it turned in,
"Oh no, what have I done?"
And I don't even know my last name

What have I done
What have I done
What have I done
Oh, what have I done
I don't even know my last name

It turned into
"Oh no, what have I done?"
And I don't even know my last

It started off "Hey cutie, where ya from?"
And then it turned into
"Oh no, what have I done?"
And I don't even know my last name

Bon Jovi - It's My Life

This ain't a song for the brokenhearted
No silent prayer for the faith departed
And I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd
You're gonna hear my voice when I shout it out loud

It's my life
It's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just wanna live while I'm alive

(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said, "I did it my way"
I just wanna live while I'm alive
'Cause it's my life

This is for the ones who stood their ground
For Tommy and Gina who never backed down
Tomorrow's getting harder, make no mistake
Luck ain't even lucky, gotta make your own breaks

It's my life
And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just wanna live while I'm alive

(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said, "I did it my way"
I just wanna live while I'm alive
'Cause it's my life

You better stand tall
When they're calling you out
Don't bend, don't break
Baby, don't back down

It's my life
It's now or never
'Cause I ain't gonna live forever
I just wanna live while I'm alive

(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said, "I did it my way"
I just wanna live while I'm alive

(It's my life)
And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just wanna live while I'm alive

(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said, "I did it my way"
I just wanna live while I'm alive
'Cause it's my life!

Jill Scott - Hate On Me

If I could give you the world on a silver platter
Would it even matter? You'd still be mad at me
If I could find in all this a dozen roses
Which I would give to you, you'd still be miserable

In reality I'm gon' be who I be and I don't feel no faults
For all the lies that you bought
You can try as you may, break me down when I say
That it ain't up to you, gonna do what you do

Hate on me, hater, now or later
'Cause I'm gonna do me, you'll be made, baby
Go 'head and hate on me, hater, I'm not afraid of
What I got I paid for, you can hate on me

Ooh, if I gave you peaches outta my own garden
And I made you a peach pie, would you slap me out?
Wonder if I gave you diamonds out of my own womb
Would you feel the love in that or ask why not the moon?

If I gave you sanity for the whole of humanity
Handed all the solutions for the pain and pollution
No matter where I live, despite the things I give
You'll always be this way, so go 'head and

Hate on me, hater, now or later
'Cause I'm gonna do me, you'll be made, baby
Go 'head and hate on me, hater, I'm not afraid of
What I got I paid for, you can hate on me

Hate on me, hater, now or later
'Cause I'm gonna do me, you'll be made, baby
Go 'head and hate on me, hater, I'm not afraid of
What I got I paid for, you can hate on me

You cannot hate on me 'cause my mind is free
Feel my destiny, so shall it be
You cannot hate on me 'cause my mind is free
Feel my destiny, so shall it be

Hate on me, hater, now or later
'Cause I'm gonna do me, you'll be made, baby
Go 'head and hate on me, hater, I'm not afraid of
What I got I paid for, you can hate on me

This reminds me of a certain someone. Did Mack scorn a member of Panic! At The Disco and this is their revenge ballad?

Panic! At The Disco - Sarah Smiles

I was fine just a guy living on my own
Waiting for the sky to fall
Then you called and changed it all, Doll

Velvet lips and the eyes to pull me in
We both know you'd already win
Mm, you're original sin

You fooled me once with your eyes now honey
You fooled me twice with your lies and I say

Sarah smiles like Sarah doesn't care
She lives in her world so unaware
Does she know that my destiny lies with her?

Sarah
(Sarah, Sarah, Sarah)
Oh Sarah
(Sarah)
are you saving me?

Waking up to a kiss and you're on your way
I really hoped that you would stay
But you left and went your own way, Babe

I don't mind, take your time, I got things to do
Besides sit around and wait for you
Oh and I hope you do too

You fooled me once with your eyes now honey
You fooled me twice with your lies and I say

Sarah smiles like Sarah doesn't care
She lives in her world so unaware
Does she know that my destiny lies with her?

Sarah
Oh Sarah
are you saving me?

And it's killing me inside
Consuming all my time
You've left me blind
And when I think I'm right
You strip away my pride
You cast it all aside but I say

Sarah smiles like Sarah doesn't care,
She lives in her world so unaware,
Does she know that my destiny lies with her,

Sarah,
(Sarah)
Oh Sarah,
(Sarah)
are you saving me?

Madonna - What It Feels Like For A girl

Girls can wear jeans
And cut their hair short
Wear shirts and boots
'Cause it's OK to be a boy
But for a boy to look like a girl is degrading
'Cause you think that being a girl is degrading
But secretly you'd love to know what it's like
Wouldn't you
What it feels like for a girl

Silky smooth
Lips as sweet as candy, baby
Tight blue jeans
Skin that shows in patches

Strong inside but you don't know it
Good little girls they never show it
When you open up your mouth to speak
Could you be a little weak

Do you know what it feels like for a girl
Do you know what it feels like in this world
For a girl

Hair that twirls on finger tips so gently, baby
Hands that rest on jutting hips repenting

Hurt that's not supposed to show
And tears that fall when no one knows
When you're trying hard to be your best
Could you be a little less

Do you know what it feels like for a girl
Do you know what it feels like in this world
What it feels like for a girl

Strong inside but you don't know it
Good little girls they never show it
When you open up your mouth to speak
Could you be a little weak

Do you know what it feels like for a girl
Do you know what it feels like in this world
For a girl

In this world
Do you know
Do you know
Do you know what it feels like for a girl
What it feels like in this world

The All American Rejects - Gives You Hell

I wake up every evening
With a big smile on my face
And it never feels out of place.
And you're still probably working
At a 9 to 5 pace
I wonder how bad that tastes

When you see my face
I hope it gives you hell, I hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
I hope it gives you hell, I hope it gives you hell

Now where's your picket fence love
And where's that shiny car
Did it ever get you far?
You never seem so tense, love
Never seen you fall so hard
Do you know where you are?

Truth be told I miss you
Truth be told I'm lying

When you see my face
I hope it gives you hell, I hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
I hope it gives you hell, I hope it gives you hell
If you find a man that's worth the damn and treats you well
Then he's a fool you're just as well hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
Tomorrow you'll be thinking to yourself
Where did it all go wrong?
But the list goes on and on

Truth be told I miss you
Truth be told I'm lying

When you see my face
I hope it gives you hell, I hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
I hope it gives you hell, I hope it gives you hell
If you find a man that's worth the damn and treats you well
Then he's a fool you're just as well hope it gives you hell

Now you'll never see
What you've done to me
You can take back your memories
They're no good to me
And here's all your lies
If you look me in the eyes
With the sad, sad look
That you wear so well

When you see my face
I hope it gives you hell, I hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
I hope it gives you hell, I hope it gives you hell
If you find a man that's worth the damn and treats you well
Then he's a fool you're just as well hope it gives you hell

When you see my face
I hope it gives you hell, I hope it gives you hell (hope it gives you hell)
When you walk my way
I hope it gives you hell, I hope it gives you hell (hope it gives you hell)
When you hear this song and you sing along well you'll never tell
And you're the fool I've just as well I hope it gives you hell
When you hear this song I hope that it will give you hell
You can sing along I hope that it puts you through hell

Lily Allen - Smile

I was so lost back then
But with a little help from my friends
I found a light in the tunnel at the end
Now you're calling me up on the phone
So you can have a little whine and a moan
And it's only because you're feeling alone

At first, when I see you cry,
It makes me smile, it makes me smile.
At worst, I feel bad for a while,
But then I just smile,
I go ahead and smile.

Whenever you see me you say that you want me back
And I tell you it don't mean jack, no it don't mean jack
I couldn't stop laughing, no I just couldn't help myself
See you messed up my mental health, I was quite unwell

I was so lost back then
But with a little help from my friends
I found a light in the tunnel at the end
An' now you're calling me up on the phone
So you can have a little whine and a moan
An' it's only because you're feeling alone

At first when I see you cry,
It makes me smile, it makes me smile
At worst I feel bad for a while,
But then I just smile, I go ahead and smile

At first when I see you cry, (when I see you cry)
It makes me smile, it makes me smile (it makes me smile)
At worst I feel bad for a while, (I feel bad for a while)
But then I just smile ( But then I just smile, I go ahead and smile...)

AC/DC - Highway To Hell

Living easy, living free
Season ticket on a one-way ride
Asking nothing, leave me be
Taking everything in my stride
Don't need reason, don't need rhyme
Ain't nothing I'd rather do
Going down, party time
My friends are gonna be there too, yeah

I'm on the highway to hell
On the highway to hell
Highway to hell
I'm on the highway to hell

No stop signs, speed limit
Nobody's gonna slow me down
Like a wheel, gonna spin it
Nobody's gonna mess me round
Hey Satan, paid my dues
Playing in a rocking band
Hey momma, look at me
I'm on my way to the promised land
I'm on the highway to hell

Madonna - Express Yourself

Come on girls
Do you believe in love?
'Cause I got something to say about it
And it goes something like this

Don't go for second best baby
Put your love to the test
You know, you know, you've got to
Make him express how he feels
And maybe then you'll know your love is real

You don't need diamond rings
Or eighteen karat gold
Fancy cars that go very fast
You know they never last, no, no
What you need is a big strong hand
To lift you to your higher ground
Make you feel like a queen on a throne
Make him love you till you can't come down
(You'll never come down)

Don't go for second best baby
Put your love to the test
You know, you know, you've got to
Make him express how he feels
And maybe then you'll know your love is real

Long stem roses are the way to your heart
But he needs to start with your head
Satin sheets are very romantic
What happens when you're not in bed
You deserve the best in life
So if the time isn't right then move on
Second best is never enough
You'll do much better baby on your own
(Baby on your own)

Don't go for second best baby
Put your love to the test
You know, you know, you've got to
Make him express how he feels
And maybe then you'll know your love is real

Express yourself
(You've got to make him)
Express himself
Hey, hey, hey, hey
So if you want it right now, make him show you how
Express what he's got, oh baby ready or not

And when you're gone he might regret it
Think about the love he once had
Try to carry on, but he just won't get it
He'll be back on his knees

To express himself
(You've got to make him)
Express himself
Hey hey

What you need is a big strong hand
To lift you to your higher ground
Make you feel like a queen on a throne
Make him love you till you can't come down
(You'll never come down)

So please

Don't go for second best baby
Put your love to the test
You know, you know, you've got to
Make him express how he feels
And maybe then you'll know your love is real

Express yourself
(You've got to make him)
Express himself
Hey, hey, hey, hey
So if you want it right now, make him show you how
Express what he's got, oh baby ready or not
Express yourself
(You've got to make him)
So you can respect yourself
Hey, hey
So if you want it right now, then make him show you how
Express what he's got, oh baby ready or not

I Smile.

Christina Perri - Jar of Hearts

I know I can't take one more step towards you
Cause all that's waiting is regret
And don't you know I'm not your ghost anymore?
You lost the love
I loved the most

And I learned to live, half-alive
And now you want me one more time

Who do you think you are?
Runnin' round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are?

I hear you're asking all around
If I am anywhere to be found
But I have grown too strong
To ever fall back in your arms

And I learned to live, half-alive
And now you want me one more time

Who do you think you are?
Runnin' round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are?

Dear, it took so long just to feel alright
Remember how to put back the light in my eyes
I wish I had missed the first time that we kissed
Cause you broke all your promises
And now you're back
You don't get to get me back

Who do you think you are?
Runnin' round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Don't come back at all

And who do you think you are?
Runnin' round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
Don't come back for me
Don't come back at all

Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?

My Chemical Romance - Sing

Sing it out,
Boy, you got to see what tomorrow brings.
Sing it out,
Girl, you got to be what tomorrow needs.

For every time.
That they want to count you out,
Use your voice,
every single time you open up your mouth.

Sing it for the boys,
Sing it for the girls,
Every time that you lose it sing it for the world.
Sing it from the heart,
Sing it till you're nuts,
Sing it out for the ones that'll hate your guts.
Sing it for the deaf,
Sing it for the blind,
Sing about everyone that you left behind.
Sing it for the world,
Sing it for the world.

Sing it out,
Boy, they're gonna sell what tomorrow needs
Sing it out,
Girl, they're gonna kill what tomorrow brings
You've got to make a choice,
If the music drowns you out.
And raise your voice,
Every single time they try and shut your mouth.

Sing it for the boys,
Sing it for the girls,
Every time that you lose it sing it for the world.
Sing it from the heart,
Sing it till you're nuts,
Sing it out for the ones that'll hate your guts.
Sing it for the deaf,
Sing it for the blind,
Sing about everyone that you left behind.
Sing it for the world,
Sing it for the world.

Cleaned-up corporation progress,
Dying in the process.
Children that can talk about it,
Living on the webways.
People moving sideways,
Sell it till your last days.
Buy yourself the motivation,
Generation nothing.
Nothing but a dead scene,
Product of a white dream.
I am not the singer that you wanted,
but a dancer.
I refuse to answer,
Talk about the past,
Sir and wrote it for the ones who want to get away.

Keep running!

Sing it for the boys,
Sing it for the girls,
Every time that you lose it sing it for the world.
Sing it from the heart,
Sing it till you're nuts,
Sing it out for the ones that'll hate your guts.
Sing it for the deaf,
Sing it for the blind,
Sing about everyone that you left behind.
Sing it for the world,
Sing it for the world.

You've got to see what tomorrow brings!
Sing it for the world,
Sing it for the world.
Yeah, you've got to be what tomorrow needs!
Sing it for the world,
Sing it for the world.

Take Me Or Leave Me

Every single day
I walk down the street
I hear people say
?Baby?s so sweet?

Ever since puberty
Everybody stares at me
Boys, girls
I can?t help it baby

So be kind
And don?t lose your mind
Just remember
That I?m your baby

Take me for what I am
Who I was meant to be
And if you give a damn
Take me baby or leave me
Take me baby or leave me

A tiger in a cage
Can never see the sun
This diva needs her stage
Baby, let?s have fun!

You are the one I choose
Folks would kill to fill your shoes
You love the limelight too, now baby

So be mine
And don?t waste my time
Cryin?, ?Oh Honeybear
Are you still my, my, my baby??

Take me for what I am
Who I was meant to be
And if you give a damn
Take me baby or leave me

No way, can I be what I?m not
But hey, don?t you want your girl hot?
Don?t fight, don?t lose your head
?Cause every night, who?s in your bed?

Who, who?s in your bed?

Take me for what I am
Who I was meant to be
(Who I was meant to be)
And if you give a damn
(And if you give a damn ya better)
Take me baby or leave me
(Oh take me baby, take me or leave me)
Take me baby
Or leave me

Uncle Kracker - Smile

You're better than the best
I'm lucky just to linger in your light
Cooler than the flip side
Of my pillow, that's right

Completely unaware
Nothing can compare to where
You send me, lets me know that it's okay
Yeah, it's okay
And the moments where my good times start to fade

You make me smile like the sun, fall out of bed
Sing like bird, dizzy in my head
Spin like a record, crazy on a Sunday night

You make me dance like a fool, forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Oh, you make me smile

Even when you're gone,
Somehow you come along just like
A flower pokin' through the sidewalk crack
And just like that
You steal away the rain, and just like that

You make me smile like the sun, fall out of bed
Sing like bird, dizzy in my head
Spin like a record, crazy on a Sunday night

You make me dance like a fool, forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Oh, you make me smile

Don't know how I lived without you
'Cause every time that I get around you
I see the best of me inside your eyes
You make me smile

You make me dance like a fool, forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild

You make me smile like the sun, fall out of bed
Sing like bird, dizzy in my head
Spin like a record, crazy on a Sunday night

You make me dance like a fool, forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Oh, you make me smile

Mika - Kickass

We are young
We are strong
We're not looking for where we belong

We're not cool
We are free
And we're running with blood on our knees

We could rule the world
On a silver platter
From the wrong to the right light
To an open stream

With a crash and burn
We could make it better
Turn it upside down
Just you and me

We are the dream
No other way
To be

We are young
We are strong
We're not looking for where we belong

We're not cool
We are free
And we're running with blood on our knees

I could change the world
I could make it better
Kick it up and down
Take a chance on me

When you fake a smile
And you think you're better
Gonna put it down
Right at your feet

No bridge to burn
Nowhere to turn
For me

We are young
We are strong
We're not looking for where we belong

We're not cool
We are free
And we're running with blood on our knees

What do they know about us?
Are they thinking of somebody else?
Are they wondering what we might be?
Are they thinking of you or of me?

We are young
We are strong
We're not looking for where we belong

We're not cool
We are free
And we're running with blood on our knees

Blank Shelton - Who Are You When I'm Not Looking?

My oh my, you're so good-looking
Hold yourself together like a pair of bookends
But I've not tasted all your cooking
Who are you when I'm not looking?

Do you pour a little something on the rocks?
Slide down the hallway in your socks?
When you undress, do you leave a path?
Then sink to your nose in a bubble bath?

My oh my, you're so good-looking
Hold yourself together like a pair of bookends
But I've not tasted all your cooking
Who are you when I'm not looking?

I wanna know
I wanna know
I wanna know

Who are you when I'm not around?
When the door is locked and the shades are down?
Do you listen to your music quietly?
And when it feels just right, are you thinkin' of me?

I wanna know
I wanna know
I wanna know

My oh my, you're so good-looking
But who are you when I'm not looking?

Strange Familiar - Courage Is...

Take all my vicious words and turn them into something good
Take all my preconceptions and let the truth be understood
Take all my prized possessions and leave only what I need
Take all my pieces of doubt and let me be what's underneath

Courage is when you're afraid but you keep on moving anyway
Courage is when you're in pain but you keep on living anyway

We all have excuses why living in fear something in us dies
Like a bird with broken wings, its not how high he flies but the song he sings

Courage is when you're afraid but you keep on moving anyway
Courage is when you're in pain but you keep on living anyway
keep on living anyway
keep on living anyway

It's not how many times you've been knocked down
It's how many times you get back up

Courage is when you've lost your way but you find your strength anyway
Courage is when you're afraid
Courage is when it all seems grey
Courage is when you make a change and you keep on living anyway

You keep on moving anyway
You keep on giving anyway
You keep on loving anyway

Dixie Chicks - Not Ready To Make Nice

Forgive, sounds good
Forget, I?m not sure I could
They say time heals everything
But I?m still waiting

I?m through with doubt
There?s nothing left for me to figure out
I?ve paid a price
And I?ll keep paying

I?m not ready to make nice
I?m not ready to back down
I?m still mad as hell and
I don?t have time to go round and round and round
It?s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn?t if I could
?Cause I?m mad as hell
Can?t bring myself to do what it is you think I should

I know you said
Can?t you just get over it
It turned my whole world around
And I kind of like it

I made my bed and I sleep like a baby
With no regrets and I don?t mind sayin?
It?s a sad sad story when a mother will teach her
Daughter that she ought to hate a perfect stranger
And how in the world can the words that I said
Send somebody so over the edge
That they?d write me a letter
Sayin? that I better shut up and sing
Or my life will be over

I?m not ready to make nice
I?m not ready to back down
I?m still mad as hell and
I don?t have time to go round and round and round
It?s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn?t if I could
?Cause I?m mad as hell
Can?t bring myself to do what it is you think I should

I?m not ready to make nice
I?m not ready to back down
I?m still mad as hell and
I don?t have time to go round and round and round
It?s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn?t if I could
?Cause I?m mad as hell
Can?t bring myself to do what it is you think I should

What it is you think I should

Forgive, sounds good
Forget, I?m not sure I could
They say time heals everything
But I?m still waiting

Leona Lewis - Bleeding Love

Closed off from love
I didn't need the pain
Once or twice was enough
And it was all in vain
Time starts to pass
Before you know it you're frozen

But something happened
For the very first time with you
My heart melted to the ground
Found something true
And everyone's looking 'round
Thinking I'm going crazy

But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open

Trying hard not to hear
But they talk so loud
Their piercing sounds fill my ears
Try to fill me with doubt
Yet I know that their goal
Is to keep me from falling

But nothing's greater
Than the rush that comes with your embrace
And in this world of loneliness
I see your face
Yet everyone around me
Thinks that I'm going crazy
Maybe, maybe

But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open

And it's draining all of me
Oh they find it hard to believe
I'll be wearing these scars
For everyone to see

I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the pain
That I keep all closed in
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open and I
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love

Miranda Lambert - Gunpowder And Lead

County road 233, under my feet
Nothin' on this white rock but little ol' me
I've got two miles till, he makes bail
And if I'm right we're headed straight for hell

I'm goin' home, gonna load my shotgun
Wait by the door and light a cigarette
If he wants a fight, well now he's got one
And he ain't seen me crazy yet
He slapped my face and he shook me like a rag doll
Don't that sound like a real man?
I'm gonna show him what little girls are made of
Gunpowder and lead

Well it's half past ten, another six pack in
And I can feel the rumble like a cold black wind
He pulls in the drive, gravel flies
He don't know what's waitin' here this time

Hey I'm goin' home, gonna load my shotgun
Wait by the door and light a cigarette
If he wants a fight well now he's got one
And he ain't seen me crazy yet
He slapped my face and he shook me like a rag doll
Don't that sound like a real man?
I'm gonna show him what little girls are made of
Gunpowder and lead

His fist is big but my gun's bigger
He'll find out when I pull the trigger

I'm goin' home, gonna load my shotgun
Wait by the door and light a cigarette
If he wants a fight well now he's got one
And he ain't seen me crazy yet
He slapped my face and he shook me like a rag doll
Don't that sound like a real man?
I'm gonna show him what little girls are made of
Gunpowder and,
Gunpowder and lead

Dolly Parton - Dumb Blonde

Don't try to cry your way out of this
Don't try to lie or I'll catch you in it
Don't try to make me feel sorry for you
Just because I'm blonde
Don't think I'm dumb
Cause this dumb blonde ain't nobody's fool

When you left you thought I'd sit
An' you thought I'd wait
An' you thought I'd cry
You called me a dumb blonde
Ah, but somehow I lived through it
And you know if there's one thing this blonde has learned
Blondes have more fun

You flew too high up off the ground
It's stormy wheater an' had to come back down
But I've found new thread for my old spool
Just because I'm blonde
Don't think I'm dumb
Cause this dumb blonde ain't nobody's fool

When you left you thought I'd sit
An' you thought I'd wait
An' you thought I'd cry
You called me a dumb blonde
Ah, but somehow I lived through it
And you know if there's one thing this blonde has learned
Blondes have more fun

You flew too high up off the ground
It's stormy wheater an' had to come back down
But I've found new thread for my old spool
Just because I'm blonde
Don't think I'm dumb
Cause this dumb blonde ain't nobody's fool

Death Cab For Cutie - I Will Follow You Into The Dark

Love of mine some day you will die
But I'll be close behind
I'll follow you into the dark

No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white
Just our hands clasped so tight
Waiting for the hint of a spark
If Heaven and Hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark

In Catholic school as vicious as Roman rule
I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black
And I held my tongue as she told me
"Son fear is the heart of love"
So I never went back

If Heaven and Hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark

You and me have seen everything to see
From Bangkok to Calgary
And the soles of your shoes are all worn down
The time for sleep is now
It's nothing to cry about
'cause we'll hold each other soon
In the blackest of rooms

If Heaven and Hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the No's on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark
Then I'll follow you into the dark

Simple Plan - Gone To Soon

Hey there now
Where'd you go
You left me here so unexpected
You changed my life
I hope you know
Cause now I'm lost
So unprotected

In a blink of an eye
I never got to say goodbye

Like a shooting star
Flyin' across the room
So fast so far
You were gone too soon
You're part of me
And I'll never be
The same here without you
You were gone too soon

You were always there
And like shining light
On my darkest days
You were there to guide me

Oh I miss you now
I wish you could see
Just how much your memory
Will always mean to me
In a blink of an eye
I never got to say goodbye

Like a shooting star
Flyin' across the room
So fast so far
You were gone too soon
You're part of me
And I'll never be
The same here without you
You were gone too soon

Shine on! shine on!
To a better place
Shine on! shine on!
Will never be the same

Like a shooting star
Flyin' across the room
So fast so far
You were gone too soon
You're part of me
And I'll never be
The same here without you
You were gone too soon

Shine on! shine on!
You were gone too soon
Shine on! shine on!
You were gone too soon
Shine on! shine on!
You were gone too soon

Out Tonight

What's the time?
Well it's gotta be close to midnight
My body's talking to me
It says, Time for danger
It says I wanna commit a crime
Wanna be the cause of a fight
I wanna put on a tight skirt and flirt
With a stranger
I've had a knack from way back
At breaking the rules once I learn the games
Get up - life's too quick
I know someplace sick
Where this chick'll dance in the flames
We don't need any money
I always get in for free
You can get in too
If you get in with me

Let's go out tonight
I have to go out tonight
You wanna play?
Let's run away
We won't be back before it's New Year's Day
Take me out tonight
Meow- HA!

When I get a wink from the doorman
Do you know how lucky you'll be?
That you're on line with the feline of
Avenue B

Let's go out tonight
I have to go out tonight
You wanna prowl?
Be my night owl
Well take my hand we're gonna howl
Out tonight

In the evening I've got to roam
Can't sleep in the city of neon and chrome
Feels too damn much like home
When the babies cry
So let's find a bar
So dark we forget who we are
And all the scars of the
Nevers and maybes die

Let's go out tonight
I Have to go out tonight
You're sweet
Wanna hit the street?
Wanna wail at the moon like a cat in heat?
Just take me out tonight
Please take me out tonight
Don't forsake me - out tonight
I'll let you make me - out tonight
Tonight - tonight - tonight!
