General Figment of the USS Imagination by United Nations

Run from the sun
Worship all the disasters
Give yourself up to be
A sacrifice to the concept of belief.

Plagues of frogs raining down.
Rivers run red, rivers run dry.
But it's a lie and a fraud and it's coming from his mouth:
It's coming down. It's coming down.
He's comatose, eyes half closed,
He's the great white hope and he's selling you a lie.
It's a prefect day, a perfect day.
But he's comatose, eyes half closed,
He's the great white hope and he's selling you a lie

Ignorance by Paramore

If I'm a bad person,
You don't like me.
I guess I'll go,
Make my own way.
It's a circle,
A mean cycle.
I can't excite you anymore.
Where's your gavel, your jury?
What's my offense this time?
You're not a judge but if you're gonna judge me,
Well sentence me to another life.

(Chorus) Don't wanna hear your sad songs.
I don't wanna feel your pain,
When you swear it's all my fault.
Cause you know we're not the same.
Oh we're not the same,
The friends who stuck together.
We wrote our names in blood,
But I guess you can't accept that the change is good,
It's good.
You treat me just like another stranger.
Well it's nice to meet you sir.
I guess I'll go.
I best be on my way out.
Ignorance is your new best friend.

This is the best thing that could've happened.
Any longer and I wouldn't have made it.
It's not a war.
No, it's not a rapture.
I'm just a person, but you can't take it,
The same tricks that once fooled me.
They won't get you anywhere.
I'm not the same kid from your memory.
Now I can fend for myself.

(Chorus)

You treat me just like another stranger.
Well it's nice to meet you sir.
I guess I'll go.
I best be on my way out.

I'd Rather be Dead than Famous by Pierce the Veil

Call the police
This whole place is gonna burn
Come on Holly put the gun down for me
Call the police
This whole place is gonna burn
You love money and the sex in your veins
Call the police
This whole place is gonna burn
They're trying to take it from us
They're trying to take it from us
Call the police
This whole place is gonna burn
You're so pretty when you dress for the grave
Love me as you lay
Dizzy and falling your legs dangling
Although accidents happen
They happen to me
Try to forget the beginning and end
Forget the world
Without removing the glass from your lips
Call the police
This whole place is gonna burn
You love money and the sex in your veins
Call the police
This whole place is gonna burn
They're trying to take it from us
They're trying to take it from us
Call the police
This whole place is gonna burn
The sun's coming up and we're still awake
Am I the trigger of your gun
Your pretty eyes don't give me much choice but
I'll take them home
I've done some thinking of my own
And when I come home
I want to be done
Don't want to be famous no more
Leave that girl alone
My teenage heart-attack keeps talking back
Keeps talking back to her
And I can't pretend that off this balcony
We wouldn't want to jump off of it
And put an end to this
Call the police
This whole place is gonna burn
You love money and the sex in your veins
Call the police
This whole place is gonna burn
Doll up and sleep walk
Until we have some teeth marks
Narcotic sweet talk
Until we have some teeth marks
This whole place is gonna burn

With Twilight As My Guide by the Mars Volta

I'm bolted from within
from long conniving heights
the hail, it makes a special sound
that always stays into the night

She tells me I'm not capable
of what they accuse me
with no remorse I stand and say
that guilt is what I plead

My devil makes me dream
like no other mortal dreams
with a blank eye corner

The only way to see him
in the tunnel where he slept
by the longest tusk of corridors
numb below the neck

In my heart

Where he keeps them
in a vault of devil daughters

When I bend in kicking form
with twilight as my guide
in every home the ghost veins gossip
you can hear them if you try

When my quill begins to squirm
from the ashes in your urn
your deviance is anything but faithful

My devil makes me dream
like no other mortal dreams
with a blank eye corner

The only way to see him
in the tunnel where he slept
by the longest tusk of corridors
numb below the neck

In my heart

Where he keeps them
in a vault of devil daughters

Everybody
hangs like dead leaves
don't you hurt these
branches waiting

I've been watching
you fall to me
don't desert me
I'm not waiting

My devil makes me dream
like no other mortal dreams
with a blank eye corner

The only way to see him
in the tunnel where he slept
by the longest tusk of corridors
numb below the neck

In my heart

Where he keeps them
in a vault of devil daughters

Where's the Money Lebowski? by Fightstar

It's come to this, you're covered in blood
So how could you miss?
Who are we are?
Just take a seat you've lost the will to stand up on your own feet
Who are we are?
Stop believing you're precious
And just take another hit for me
Stop believing you're precious
Because I gave you all that I could give
It's come to this you're drenched in sweat
So how can you sleep?
Who are we are?
Just take a seat you've lost the will to stand up on your own feet
Who are we are?
Stop believing you're precious
And just take another hit for me

When a Jealous Man Finds a Gun by Enter Shikari

And we'll grip each other tight
In this desolate canteen
That' sells his life at a price
That I'm not prepared to pay
[to pay]
go ahead and shoot us it'll only take one bullet
Go ahead and shoot us
(x2)

In this desolate cantine
I'll sell his life at a price
But I'm not prepared to pay
[to pay]

Go ahead and shoot us it'll only take one bullet
Go ahead and shoot us
(x2)

[Bah bah bah bah bah bahh]

Get your needle out and your black cotton
And stitch us back together again
(x2)
Stitch us back together again

But that stitch it'll only last one life

Oh shit!
What a-bout the o-thers?

Zzzonked by Eneter Shikari

Mate! I'm zonked absolutely spent
I think I'm gonna give up my eyes for lent
I'll use my sockets to stock stones instead
And with an icy cold stare I'll hide bones in your bed

Mate! Please accept this invitation
So I can take you away

Cos there's a one in 40 thousand chance
Asteroid Apophis
Will collide with the earth in less that 20 years

Roll up for the knees up business
Yes yes yes ok i think we've heard quite enough from you

Instead of staring at your Stella desperately for inspiration
Belt up and quiver at your indignation
I ain't saying anything that could be construed as an apology
There's another case study of anthropology
Lets announce embargos and denounce our far foes
Ingrowing egos a syntax he knows
It's just a distance that separates us
Or are we really all ethno-centric-ally inclined?

Mate! What the fuck are you going on about?

This is a draconian law I protest
I protest
The herd is rowdy
The squad is vexed

Well, I Never.. by Drop Dead, Gorgeous

I'm in line for the murder. First come fist served
You aim for across the hall, your vision blurred
Is this what you want from me, to hear me scream?
I'll die suddenly my blood on your hands
I'll die a tragedy you'll live in fame
Here comes the last masquerade
We need a doctor baby
Don't you just love a good time? I do.

The Best of Times by Dream Theater

Remember days of yesterday
And how it flew so fast
The two score and a year we had,
I thought would always last
The summer days and west coast dreams,
I wished would never end
A young boy and his father,
Idol and best friend

I'll always remember
Those were the best of times
A lifetime together
I'll never forget

Morning shows on the radio
The case of the missing dog
Lying on the hills of ?
Watching Harold and Maude
Record shops, the stick-ball fields
My home away from home
When we weren't together
The hours on the phone

I'll always remember
Those were the best of times
I'll cherish them forever
The best of times

But then came the call
Our lives changed forever more
You can pray for a change
But prepare for the end

The fleeting winds of time
Flying through each day
All the things I should have done
But time just slipped away
Remember "seize the day"
Life goes by in the blink of an eye
There's so much left to say

These were the best of times
I'll miss these days
Your spirit led my life each day

Thank you for the inspiration
Thank you for the smiles
All the unconditional love
That carried me for miles
It carried me for miles
But most of all thank you for my life

These were the best of times
I'll miss these days
Your spirit led my life each day
My heart is bleeding bad
But I'll be okay
Your spirit guides my life each day

A Rite of Passage by Dream Theater

This is the new world order
Played upon our fears
Spreading accusations
Of radical affairs

The brotherhood of wisdom
Strength and dignity
Its rituals and secrets
Remain a mystery

Beneath the ever watchful eye
The angels of the temple fly

Turn the key walk through the gate
The great ascent to reach a higher state
A rite of passage

The final stage a sacred home
Unlock the door and lay the corner stone
A rite of passage

Men of wealth and power
Influence and fame
Philosphers and leaders
Are members of the trade

Bound by oath and honor
Like the rose and cross
An enigmatic union
Of esoteric thought

Beneath the ever watchful eye
The angels of the temple fly

Turn the key walk through the gate
The great ascent to reach a higher state
A rite of passage

The final stage a sacred home
Unlock the door and lay the corner stone
A rite of passage

Turn the key walk through the gate
The great ascent to reach a higher state
A rite of passage

The seven stars the rising sun
A perfect world a new life has begun
A rite of passage

Life is Long by David Byrne and Brian Eno

Everybody says that the living is easy
I can barely see �cause my head's in the way
Tigers walk behind me- they are to remind me that
I'm lost- but I'm not afraid

Soul to soul- A kiss and a sigh
Sawed in half- by the passage of time
Halfway home- from a window you see
Chains and bars- but I am still free

People on the outside- I remember sweet times
This old rose- is always in bloom
Everybody's happy- to be a baby daddy
Stone love- with nothing to lose

Life is long- if you give it way
So stay, don't go- �cause I'm fading away
Soul to soul- between you and me
Chain me down- but I am still free

Now I can say- those three little words
And every day- I'm dreaming a world
Soul to soul- a kiss and a sigh
Holding back- the waters outside.

Life is long- if you give it away
So stay, don't go- �cause I'm fading away
Soul to soul- between you and me
Chain me down- but I am still free

Fool Me Once by Burden of a Day

I saw the flames, feeding a poisonous strength
Worthy of fear
But as a child with four second futures, I never dreamed
That you would take me to a place that's quite like here
Say my brother, to think that I embraced in you
Say my lover, to think I thought of you my true
How do I look now, what would you have me do?
Say my lord, bring me the head of my youth
Tell me I am sleeping and this is a dream
So I can go on loving as you would have me
I wont let my rival feel the joy
I can see it all so clear
I saw the flames, feeding a poisonous strength
Worthy of fear
I am no fool, who did you think you're talking to?
My silly little one
Betray me with a kiss, who did you think your messing...
My silly little one
Tell me I am sleeping and this is a dream
So I can go on loving as you would have me
I wont let my rival feel the joy
I cant see it all so clear
I saw the flames, feeding a poisonous strength
Worthy of fear
Say my brother, I sing a thousand thanks for you
Say my lover, what I see if you only knew
How do I look now, what would you have me do?
Say my lord, you brought me the body of truth

Meridian by August Burns Red

The people who survive the sword will find favor in the desert.
[Jeremiah 31:2]
I will build you up again and you will be rebuilt.
[Jeremiah 31:4]
I am the painter making this mess a masterpiece.
I will rebuild you up again.

Old Crows by Alexisonfire

old crows ride in the mouth of the beast
sleep beneath it's tongue, cradled by it's teeth
we roam from shore to shore
From the open sky to the ocean floor
The more we move, the less we are ourselves
and when we finally stop, we change to something else

as rapid as a river flows
as frigid as the cold wind can blow
as devious as the devil's grin
our blood is cold and we've shed our skin

We are are not the kids we used to be (stop wishing for yesterday)
We are are not the kids we used to be (stop wishing for yesterday)
We are are not the kids we used to be
Oh-oh-oh
We are are not the kids we used to be (stop wishing for yesterday)

The crows are calling, seems the end is near
they're spelling out our names, yet we have no fear
oh the damage a man can do
when ambition takes over his search for the truth
Sometimes, life just gets the best of us
some things in life will get the best of us
Well,

We are are not the kids we used to be (stop wishing for yesterday)
We are are not the kids we used to be (stop wishing for yesterday)
We are are not the kids we used to be
Oh-oh-oh
We are are not the kids we used to be (stop wishing for yesterday)

wishing for yesterday

every skyline beats in my chest
somewhere between love and sadness
this is our fate, this is our test
we ride in the mouth of madness

as rapid as a river flows
as frigid as the cold wind can blow
as devious as the devil's grin
our blood is cold and we've shed our skin

We are are not the kids we used to be (stop wishing for yesterday)
We are are not the kids we used to be
Oh-oh-oh (stop wishing for yesterday)
We are are not the kids we used to be (stop wishing for yesterday)
We are are not the kids we used to be (stop wishing for yesterday)

You'll beat me?
Bring it on, bring it on
You're gonna save the day?
Bring it on, bring it on
You Ready?

I'll show you another thing or two

You may think you're clever, but you're not

Ben has a Kid by the Devil Wears Prada

I mean this, I'm not sure if you could say the same.
Week after week after week
Idolatry is wasted reverence, idolatry is the yellow on your teeth.
Gasp for the truth you once lived,
Beyond this world is what is always breathing,
Beyond this world is worth dying for.
I remember what you used to claim,
You can't bury conviction with anything.
Our message will grow,
No matter the mistakes made within construction.
Beyond this world is what is always breathing,
Beyond this world is worth dying for.
Gasp for the truth you once lived,
I pray that stolen glimpses do not subtract from what we've been building.
Keep stride persist in our march.

Damocles by Fightstar

Gut the animals
They won't feel a thing
You're all pigs in shit
You should just
Call your mothers out
They'd be so proud of you
As you celebrate
Human suffering

You make it obvious
Should we hang them high up under the gallows?
Are you ever going to learn?
Are you ever going to value this life?

We are privileged
We are all obliged
Just go fuck yourself
I am your sword of Damocles
Get down on your knees
Will you have mercy on us please?

How did we all fall down?
You make it obvious
Should we hang them high under the gallows?
Are you ever going to learn?
Are you going to value this life?
You live like animals
Now it's your turn
We take to the skies as you bury yourself

Into the Ocean by Blue October

I'm just a normal boy
That sank when I fell overboard
My ship would leave the country
But I'd rather swim ashore

Without a life vest I'd be stuck again
Wish I was much more masculine
Maybe then I could learn to swim
Like 'fourteen miles away'

Now floating up and down
I spin, colliding into sound
Like whales beneath me diving down
I'm sinking to the bottom of my
Everything that freaks me out
The lighthouse beam has just run out
I'm cold as cold as cold can be...
be...

I want to swim away but don't know how
Sometimes it feels just like I'm falling in the ocean
Let the waves up, take me down
Let the hurricane set in motion, yeah
Let the rain of what I feel right now come down
Let the rain come down

Where is the coastguard?
I keep looking each direction
For a spotlight, give me something
I need something for protection
Maybe flotsam, junk will do just fine
the jetsam sunk, I'm left behind
I'm treading for my life, believe me
(How can I keep up this breathing?)

Not knowing how to think
I scream aloud, begin to sink
My legs and arms are broken down
With envy for the solid ground
I'm reaching for the life within me
How can one man stop his ending
I thought of just your face
Relaxed, and floated into space

I want to swim away but don't know how
Sometimes it feels just like I'm falling in the ocean
Let the waves up, take me down
Let the hurricane set in motion, yeah
Let the rain of what I feel right now come down
Let the rain come down

Now waking to the sun
I calculate what I had done
Like jumping from the bow, yeah
Just to prove I knew how, yeah
It's midnight's late reminder of
The loss of her, the one I love
My will to quickly end it all
Set front row in my need to fall

Into the ocean, end it all
Into the ocean, end it all
Into the ocean, end it all
Into the ocean...end it all

[Zayra]
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)

I want to swim away but don't know how
Sometimes it feels just like I'm falling in the ocean
Let the waves take me down
Let the hurricane set in motion, yeah
Let the rain of what I feel right now come down
Let the rain come down

The Test That Stumped Them All by Dream Theater

Standing in the darkness
Waiting for the light
The smell of pure adrenaline
Burning in the night

Random blinding flashes
Aiming at the stage
Intro tape begins to roll
Igniting sonic rage

Still they keep me between these hollow walls
Hoping to find in me
The answers to the test that stumped them all

"The boy is simply crazy
Suffering from delusions
We honestly think that maybe
He might need an institution

He lives in a world of fiction
And really could use some help
We have just the place to fix him
To save him from himself"

Curled up in the darkness
Searching for the light
The smell of stale sweat and shit
Steaming through the night

Random urine testing
Pills red, pink and blue
Counselling and therapy
Providing not a clue

Still they keep me between these hollow walls
Hoping to find in me
The answers to the test that stumped them all

"We can't seem to find the answers
He seemed such a clear cut case
We cannot just let him leave here
And put all this work to waste

Why don't we try shock treatment
It really might do some help
We have just the tools to fix him
To save him from himself"

District of Misery by Oceano

We are the antidote and also the disease.
We're the oppressors who posses marks of the beast.

Mankind deserves this,
A catalyst for deconstruction.
A scapegoat to hold humanity on its knees.

A self-inflicted social anarchy to frighten the population into submission.
Intricate color schemes on TV hypnotize them while they sleep,
And from behind the scenes inject a fatal dose of misery.

So let these structures fall.
As buildings crumble,
Watch this metropolis transform to ruins.

We have no sympathy.
Victims lungs overflown with debris,
Their fractured bones exposed,
Lacerated is their skin.
This is a demonstration in the clout of government:
Failure to conform equals destruction.

At the end of this world we hold all the answers.
At the end of this world you'll posses only misery.

On a Boat by The Lonely Island

Aw, shit, get your towels ready, its about to go down. Everybody in the place hit the fuckin deck, but stay on your motherfuckinn toes. We runnin this. Lets go.

I'm on a boat. I'm on a boat. Everybody look at me cause I'm sailin on a boat. I'm on a boat. I'm on a boat. Take a good, hard look at the motherfuckin boat.

I'm on a boat motherfucker take a look at me. Straight floatin on a boat on the deep blue sea. Bustin 5 knot wind, whippin out my coat. You can't stop me motherfucker cause I'm on a boat.

Take a picture trick. I'm on a boat bitch. We drinkin Santana Champ cause it's so crisp. I got my swim trunks, and my flippy floppies. I'm flippin burgers; you at Kinko's straight flippin copies.

I'm ridin on a dolphin, doin flips and shit. The dolphin's splashin, gettin everybody all wet. But this ain't Sea-world, this as real as it gets. I'm on a boat motherfucker don't you ever forget.

I'm on a boat and it's goin fast and I got an nauticle themed Pashmina afghan. I'm the king of the world, on a boat like Leo. If you on the shore, then you're sure not me, oh. Get the fuck up ,this boat is real.

Fuck land, I'm on a boat motherfucker. Fuck trees, I climb buoys, motherfucker. I'm on the deck with my boys, motherfucker. The boat engine make noise, motherfucker.

Hey ma, if you could see me now, arms spread wide on the starboard bow. Gonna fly this boat to the moon somehow. Like Kevin Garnett, anything is possible.

Yea. Never thought I'd be on a boat. It's a big blue watery road. Yea. Poseidon, look at me, ooh. (All hands on deck). Never thought I'd see the day, when a big boat comin my way. Believe me when i say, I fucked a mermaid.

I'm on a boat. I'm on a boat. Everybody look at me cause I'm sailin on a boat. (whooa) I'm on a boat. I'm on a boat. Take a good, hard look at the motherfuckin boat.

Jizz in My Pants by the Lonely Island

Lock eyes from across the room
Down my drink, while the rhythms boom
Take your hand and skip the names
No need here for the silly games
Make our way through the smoke and crowd
The club is the sky and I'm on your cloud
Move in close as the lasers fly
Our bodies touch and the angels cry
Leave this place go back to yours
Our lips first touch outside your doors
A whole night what we've got in store
Whisper in my ear that you want some more
And I

Jizz in my pants

This really never happens you can take my word
I won't apologize, that's just absurd
Mainly your fault from the way that you dance
And now I

Jizz in my pants

Don't tell your friends or I'll say your a slut
Plus it's your fault, you were rubbing my butt
I'm very sensitive, some would say that's a plus

Now I'll go home and change

(Jorma) I need a few things from the grocery
Do things alone now mostly
Left me heart broken not lookin' for love
Surprised in my eyes when I looked above
The check out counter and I saw her face
My heart stood still so did time and space
Never felt that I could feel real again
But the look in her eyes said I need a friend
She turned to me that's when she said it
Looked me dead in the face, asked "cash? or credit?"
And I

Jizzed in my pants

It's perfectly normal, nothing wrong with me
But we're going to need a clean up on aisle 3
And now I'm posed in an awkward stance because I

Jizzed in my pants

To be fair you were flirting a lot
Plus the way you bag cans got me bothered and hot
Please stop acting like you're not impressed
One more thing, I'm gonna pay by check

Last week - I saw a film
As I recall it was a horror film
Walked outside into the rain
Checked my phone and saw you rang and I

Jizzed in my pants

Speeding down the street when the red lights flash
Need to get away need to make a dash
A song comes on that reminds me of you and I

Jizz in my pants
The next day my alarm goes off and I
Jizz in my pants
Open my window and a breeze rolls in and I
Jizz in my pants
When bruce willis was dead at the end of sixth sense I
Jizzed in my pants
I just ate a grape and I
Jizzed... in... my pants
Jizzed... in... my pants
Ok seriously you guys can we... ok...

I jizz right in my pants every time you're next to me
And when we're holding hands it's like having sex with me
You say I'm premature I just call it ecstasy
I wear a rubber at all times it's a necessity

Cuz I

Jizz... in... my pants

That's Not Really Funny by Eels

Did you think that I would laugh when you said I was small
Did you think that that would pass as if nothing at all

You say a lot of funny things, my little bunny
And I almost always laugh, but that's not really funny

You play the little bells and tell a good story
You bake delicious pie and that's enough for me

But I am big, I am your man, and you're my little honey
And I like what you have to say, but that's not really funny

You must not continue to emasculate me
The neighbour children through the window clearly see

The little boy will wipe his nose because it's runny
Then point at me and laugh, but that's not really funny

1,000,000 Died to Make this Sound by the Silver Mt. Zion

One million died to make this sound
Can't learn the words if you don't know the feeling
Can't get the feeling if you don't know the sound
One million died to make this sound
Your band
Your band is bland
Your band is bland ambition

Can't live on their remainders
We'll starve on it for sure
Their way is debt and prisons
They are burning half the world
A feast of filthy feasts, man
Stale air and dead parades
The pretense of their awful gardens
Monuments the mess they've made
Give me a goddamn shovel
I'll dig my own damn hole
We drank 'til morning made us
Then ate the shit we stole


One million died to make this sound

I learned it / at 17 / on drugs / and well policed /
It kissed me / as I fell / with fists full / of ringing bells /
So get fast / and get quick / with dum hearts / and swung hips /
Our dreams / deserve it...
(silk-screen that, ye twits, across thy internet...)
(silk-screen that, ye twits, across thy internet...)
One million died to make this sound...

I'll Stand By You by the Pretenders

Oh, why you look so sad?
Tears are in your eyes
Come on and come to me now
Dont be ashamed to cry
Let me see you through
cause Ive seen the dark side too
When the night falls on you
You dont know what to do
Nothing you confess
Could make me love you less

Ill stand by you
Ill stand by you
Wont let nobody hurt you
Ill stand by you

So if youre mad, get mad
Dont hold it all inside
Come on and talk to me now
Hey, what you got to hide?
I get angry too
Well Im a lot like you
When youre standing at the crossroads
And dont know which path to choose
Let me come along

Take me in, into your darkest hour
And Ill never desert you
Ill stand by you
Ill stand by you
Wont let nobody hurt you
Ill stand by you
Wont let nobody hurt you

This Time We Stand by In Case of Fire

Pull the curtain, Dim the lights
And set the scene to kill tonight
Because we can't trust the men in blue
They swear to God they told the truth

I am making fires now for you
Holding up the light to see the truth
This time we will stand and make it through

The state was pulling strings today
Pressing flesh to make him pay
Dead man walking paralyzed
By greedy hearts and dirty eyes

I am making fires now for you
Holding up the light to see the truth
This time we will stand and make it through

Be terrified by all the things we know
Because if innocence is ordinary
There are places I don't want to go

The show is over, time to leave
A job well done, an hour to grieve
They're sorry if he's not the one
They had to kill somebodys son

I am making fires now for you
Holding up the light to see the truth
This time we will stand and make it through

Hollow Crown by the Architects

There, there must be
An easier way, to release these feelings
So, so far from home
I need your voice, to hold my head together
So, so far from home
I need your voice to lift my lonely state of mind
You, you can but wait for me to return
For me to show you how I felt
These months have blurred
And they just fly by
I need to feel you
Right by my side
So, so far from home
I need your voice
To hold my head together
So, so far from home
I need your voice to lift my lonely state of mind
There must be an easier way, there must be an easier way
There must be an easier way to release these feelings
As the sea breeze hits my lungs
It takes me back to where I belong,
To where I belong

Sorry, You're Not a Winner by Enter Shikari

Scratch card glory, waist low pleasure?
Black eyes nose bleeds, don't look back now
My white abode, do you remember?
My white abode,
But it's such a thrill just to find out...

Sorry you're not a winner
With the air so cold and a mind so bitter
What have you got to lose
But false intentions and a life so pretentious?

Black eyes nose bleeds, don't look back now
My white abode do you remember?

What have you got to lose
But false intentions and a life so pretentious?

Black eyes nose bleeds don't look back now
My white abode do you remember?
I sweat I ache...

Sorry you're not a winner
With the air so cold and a mind so bitter
What have you got to lose
But false intentions and a life so pretentious?

What? What? What?

America's Suitehearts by Fall Out Boy

You could have knocked me out with a (feather)
I know you heard this all before, but were just hell's dreamers
Wh-wh-why won't the world revolve around me?
Build my dreams, trees grow all over the streets

But I don't know much about classic cars
But I got a lot of friends talking classic cars
Down set, one, hut, hut, hike
Media, please

Let's hear it for America's sweethearts
But I must confess
I'm in love with my own sins
Let's hear it for America's sweethearts
But I must confess
I'm in love with my own sins

You can bow and pretend
That you don't, don't, know you're a legend
Time, time, time hasn't told anyone else yet
Let my love loose again

But I don't know much about classic cars
But I got a lot of friends talking classic cars
Down set, one, hut, hut, hike
Media, please

Let's hear it for America's sweethearts
But I must confess
I'm in love with my own sins
Let's hear it for America's sweethearts
But I must confess
I'm in love with my own sins

You could have knocked me out with a (feather)
I know you heard this all before

Let's hear it for America's sweethearts
But I must confess
I'm in love with my own sins
Let's hear it for America's sweethearts
But I must confess (I must confess)
I'm in love with my own sins

Let's hear it
Oh, let's hear it
Let's hear it

Follow Me Into the Darkness by Fightstar

I woke on the floor next to an empty bed
Summer will come all in an afternoon
Days come and go, like the weather it changes
Come for the weekend and we'll sail away

You, you are never alone [x2]

Days spent in the rain
Some people say its a shame that we
Only get to live once
But if you'd seen the things that I've seen..

Follow me, into the darkness
And sink your fears into the night

I woke on the floor next to an empty bed
In my dreams, there were monsters and what they said was,
Follow me down, into a dark place
Well come back and see me when I fall asleep

You, you are never alone [x2]

Days spent in the rain
Some people says it's a shame that we
Only get to live once but if you'd seen the things I've seen..

Follow me into the darkness
And sink your fears, into the night

Naked As We Came by Iron and Wine

She says "wake up, it's no use pretending"
I'll keep stealing, breathing her.
Birds are leaving over autumn's ending
One of us will die inside these arms
Eyes wide open, naked as we came
One will spread our ashes 'round the yard

She says "If I leave before you, darling
Don't you waste me in the ground"
I lay smiling like our sleeping children
One of us will die inside these arms
Eyes wide open, naked as we came
One will spread our ashes round the yard

When She Loved Me by Sarah McLachlan

When somebody loved me, everything was beautiful
Every hour we spent together, lives within my heart
And when she was sad, I was there to dry her tears
And when she was happy, so was i, when she loved me.

Through the summer and the fall, we had each other, that was all
Just she and I together, like it was meant to be
And when she was lonely, I was there to comfort her
And I knew that she loved me.

So the years went by, I stayed the same
And she began to drift away, I was left alone
Still I waited for the day, when she�d say "i will always love you."

Lonely and forgotten, never thought she�d look my way,
She smiled at me and held me, just like she used to do,
Like she loved me, when she loved me

When somebody loved me, everything was beautiful,
Every hour we spent together, lives within my heart
When she loved me.

Schizophrenic Prayer by Riverside

So afraid of rejection
Hide inside ourselves
Acting like strangers to avoid the pain

We collect our phobias
Our sicknesses
Feel so good only when we can complain

In your arms
Feels like a better us
In your arms

Dancing around the fire
Getting drunk with the night
Nobody is ever who they seem to be

Hypnos give us your hand
We so tire of this life
Need to rest and finally disappear

In your arms
Feels like a better us
In your arms

My Mirror Speaks by Death Cab For Cutie

With every sun that sets I am feeling more
Like a stranger on a foreign shore
With an eroding beach disappearing from underneath

And when my mirror speaks it never minces words
Cause these eyes don’t shine half as bright
As they used to do and they haven’t for quite a while

Cause I’m a man who hides from all that binds
And a mess of fading lines
And there’s a tangled thread inside my head
With nothing on either end

I always fall in love with an open door
With a horizon on an endless sea
As I look around the ones who were standing
right in front of me

And then my mirror speaks with a reverence
Like a soldier I can’t command
It sees a child in the body of a full-grown man

And he’s a man who hides from all that binds
And a mess of fading lines
And there’s a tangled thread inside his head
With nothing on either end
There’s nothing on either end

A new position for a different view
And nothing changes but the slightest hues
And I am standing face to face

With a man who hides from all that binds
And a mess of fading lines
And there’s a tangled thread inside his head
With nothing on either end

I’m a man who hides from all that binds
And a mess of fading lines
And there’s a tangled thread inside my head
With nothing on either end
(repeat)

There’s nothing on the ends
No, there’s nothing on the ends

The Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel

Hello darkness, my old friend,
Ive come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.

In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
A neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one deared
Disturb the sound of silence.

Fools said i,you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you.
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed
In the wells of silence

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon God they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
And the signs said, the words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls.
And whisperd in the sounds of silence.

The Sound of Settling by Death Cab For Cutie

I've got a hunger
Twisting my stomach into knots.
That my tongue has tied off.

My brain's repeating
"If you've got an impulse let it out"
But they never make it past my mouth.

Bop ba, this is the sound of settling
Bop ba, Bop ba
(x2)

Our youth is fleeting,
Old age is just around the bend.
And I can't wait to go gray.

And I'll sit and wonder
Of every love that could've been.
If I'd only thought of something charming to say.

Bop ba, this is the sound of settling
Bop ba, Bop ba.
(x4)

I've got a hunger twisting my stomach into knots.

Panic Switch by Silversun Pickups

Time.
It's never worth my time.
Moonshine
Bleeds into my eyes.

I still
Sleep on the right side
Of the white noise;
Can't leave the scene behind.

Could I be anything you want me to be
If so, is it meant to be seen?

[Chorus]
Do you see yourself in a crowded room?
Do you think I'll snitch? Are you pistol-whipped?
Will you step in line, or release the glitch?
Can you fall asleep with a panic switch?

When you see yourself in a crowded room,
Do you think I'll snitch? Are you pistol whipped?
Will you step in line or release the glitch?
Do you think she'll sleep with the panic?

And I'll try to hold on tight tonight.
Pink slip, inviting me inside.
I want to burn skin and brand what once was mine,
But the red news came ripping in to fight.

If I go anywhere that you want me to go,
How will I know you'll still follow?

[Chorus]

I'm waiting and fading and floating away
I'm waiting and fading and floating away
I'm waiting and fading and floating away
I'm waiting and fading and floating.

No Quarter by Tool (Led Zeppelin Cover)

Lock all the doors, and kill the lights.
No one's coming home tonight.
The sun beats down and don't you know?
All our lives are growing cold, oh...
They bring news that must get through.
To build a dream for me and you, oh.

Locked in a place where no one goes.

They ask no quarter
They have no quarter.

oh, hey, oh

Lock the door, kill the light
No one's coming home tonight

It's getting colder (7x)
Locked in a place where no one goes.

Lock the door, kill the light
No one's coming home tonight

They bring news that must get through.
Dying peace in me and you

oh

Locked in a place where no one goes.

We have no quarter
We have no quarter
We ask no quarter

Tastes Like Kevin Bacon by iwrestledabearonce

You'll wait it out..
Force is not the same..
i bought ya..
This world will explode..
Into numb, one deal owned.....
....

Pray for your sons & your daughters
You didn't refuse
We'll the first one, weak arms
Right or wrong(right or wrong)
First off we'll dance when we dance
The last one we fault, the first one we kill...(the last one we fault, the first one we kill...)

Forsee her
Thats what we've done with your head
Your beging for papa
We're safer but
We wash our hands in death
End Me
When we fall...

He'll go, feel it grow
We may not be the ones
Feel it go, feel like we know
We move around
We'll pay
We protest
We'll pawn off war
We protest...

We all hit the floor
Right or wrong
Youre such a fool
Ignorance at it's best

We are at war
Ignorance isn't bliss
We are lied to you suckers
Everyone

This is not a joke
In the end
All suffer
For what we've done
Liers
We all suffer...

In Two Minds by Riverside

Another day of talking
And I'm in two minds
I think I have to tell you
I finally realised
I know you'll never really get inside of me
But I don't mean to hurt you
Just let me disappear

We used to like it
Used to be
In the sunset time of our dream
For all these things we cannot change
We cannot be
We cannot stay

But if you lose your faith
Know that I am still your friend
And if the sky falls down
Know that I will still support you.

Some Will Seek Forgiveness, Others Escape by Underoath

I heard a voice through the dischord
Of a deluge of passers-by
I saw one gaze frozen in time
Watching me passing by
I swear I'll know your face in the crowd
And I'll hear your voice so loud
When you're whispering

Hey, unfaithful, I will teach you
To be stronger, to be stronger
Hey, ungraceful, I will teach you
To forgive one another

Here's my kiss to betray
Desperate to brush the lips of grace
Do you feel hollow when you think of how I've lied?
Oh, sweet angel of mercy, with your grace like the morning
Wrap your loving arms around me
Oh, sweet angel of mercy, with your grace like the morning
Wrap your loving arms around me

Hey, unfaithful, I will teach you
To be stronger, to be stronger
Hey, ungraceful, I will teach you
To forgive one another
Hey, unfaithful, I will teach you
To be stronger, to be stronger

Hey, unloving
I will love you
I will love you
I will love you

And Jesus I'm ready to come (HOME!)
(JESUS, I'M READY)
I'm ready to come home, home, home, home
I'm ready to come
Hey unfaithful, hey ungraceful, hey unloving
I will love you
Hey unloving (HEY UNLOVING!)
I will love you

Stall Out by Mute Math

Racing on a faultline
Bracing for a landslide
Conscious of everything getting harder
As the race goes underwater

I keep stalling out
I just can't keep up
There's alarming doubt
Am I good enough?
But you keep coming around
to convince me
It's still far from over
(x3)

We are still far
We are still far
We are still far
from over

Build An Army by Fightstar

We'll hold this off to build these machines

Crush these empires to ashes and make them wonder

Just look out of your window and you'll find us here
We can make a stand to stop the uproars
If you can fight in wars for that

Crush these empires to ashes and make them wonder

If you could give us the answers now

Help us to end all the suffering
We'll clean the blood from all of our eyes
Take the rage away from us

If you could give us the answers now

We could crush these empires to ashes and make them wonder

I hope that in time that I'm okay with all of this

Don't you make me cry

War Pigs by Faith No More

Generals gathered in their masses
Just like witches at black masses
Evil minds that plot destruction
Sorcerers of deaths construction
In the fields are bodies burning
As the war machine keeps turning
Death and hatred to mankind
Poisoning their brainwashed minds, oh lord yeah
Politicians hide themselves away
They only started the war
Why should they go out to fight
They leave that all to the poor
Time will tell on their power minds
Making war just for fun
Treating people just like pawns in chess
Wait til the judgement day comes
Now in darkness world stops turning
As you hear the bodies burning
No more warpigs have the power
And as God has struck the hour
Day of judgement, God is calling
On their knees the warpigs crawling
Begging mercy for their sins
Satan laughing spreads his wings, oh lord yeah

Divinations by Mastodon

It’s gone away, It’s gone away
It’s gone for good
And the spirit’s shouting Camellia
A primitive child of brilliant light
Her magnet of wisdom is pulling
Pulling Faster, the fabric of time

No escape, binding spirits
No escape, trapped in time and space

A rapid descent as the wormhole is entered
The sin of calypsis surrounds me
The fire’s dancing in the silvery sea of breath
Black rune that directs me
anekatips.com
summon the soul of the specter

No escape, binding spirits
No escape, trapped in time and space

Fire in the eye
Reminiscing majesty


No escape, binding spirits
No escape, trapped in time and space

Fire in the eye
Reminiscing majesty

The English Way by Fightstar

You can find your hope
Amongst the crowds
Of all the people you've let down
We'll find a way to make this ok
Well yeah we skipped through the nights
It's all that we need to
And maybe it's all that we'll ever need
Just to make us feel alive

You are, you are, you're all around (you are, you are, you are, you're all around me now)
You are, you are, you're all around (you are, you are, you are, you're all around me now)

I will never give up on you for
All the times you sat and sang to me,
Tried to make me better
So now I'll try to let you know that
This is the English way to make us all fit back together

Please don't speak these words, just save
them, walk with me and take a trip
We'll only stop for water and some other things
Well yeah we skipped through the nights
It's all that we need to
And maybe it's all that we'll ever need
Just to make us feel alive.

You are, you are, you're all around (you are, you are, you are, you're all around me now)
You are, you are, you're all around (you are, you are, you are, you're all around me now)

I will never give up on you for
All the times you sat and sang to me,
Tried to make me better
So now I'll try to let you know that
This is the English way to make us all fit back together

Too many lives have been lost *under orders*
Of too many people that have lost their voices

I will never give up on you for
All the times you sat and sang to me,
Tried to make me better
So now I'll try to let you know that
This is the English way to make us all fit back together

Unretrofied by the Dillinger Escape Plan

Is the can half diseased or is the disease half canned?
And is the man half machine or is the machine half man?
I'm unretrofied for you.
Is the can half diseased or is the disease half canned?
Or is the man half machine or the machine half man?
I'm unretrofied for you, so come on, so come on.

I'll just fake it in the end,
Just save it for a new song and leave dead in the end.
Time is wasted in the end,
Wood paneled wagon carpool dragons killing me again.

Now they're looting our holes until there is nothing left,
Calloused intentions it seems cowards invention at best,
I'm unretrofied for you.
Now they're looting our holes until there is nothing left,
Calloused intentions it seems cowards invention at best,
I'm unretrofied for you, so come on, so come on.

I'll just fake it in the end,
Just save it for a new song and leave dead in the end.
Time is wasted in the end,
Wood paneled wagon carpool dragons killing me again - we're all dead.

Jesus can't play the music 'cause he's nailed to the cross,
And over gnawed off feet I find that I can't walk,
I can't walk,
I can't even walk.

I'll just fake it in the end,
Just save it for a new song and leave dead in the end.
Time is wasted in the end,
Wood paneled wagon carpool dragons killing me again.

I'll just fake it in the end,
Just save it for a new song and leave dead in the end.
Time is wasted in the end,
Wood paneled wagon carpool dragons killing me again - we're all dead.
