Meatloaf - "Bat Out Of Hell (Full Version)."

The sirens are screaming and the fires are howling
Way down in the valley tonight
There's a man in the shadows with a gun in his eye
And a blade shining oh so bright

There's evil in the air and there's thunder in the sky
And a killer's on the bloodshot streets
Oh and down in the tunnel where the deadly are rising
Oh I swear I saw a young boy down in the gutter
He was starting to foam in the heat

Oh Baby, you're the only thing in this whole world
That's pure and good and right
And wherever you are and wherever you go
There's always gonna be some light

But I gotta get out
I gotta break it out now
Before the final crack of dawn
So we gotta make the most of our one night together
When it's over you know
We'll both be so alone

Like a bat out of hell
I'll be gone when the morning comes
When the night is over
Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone gone gone

Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes
But when the day is done and the sun goes down
And moonlight's shining through
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I'll come crawling on back to you

I'm gonna hit the highway like a battering ram
On a silver black phantom bike
When the metal is hot and the engine is hungry
And we're all about to see the light

Nothing ever grows in this rotting old hole
Everything is stunted and lost
And nothing really rocks and nothing really rolls
And nothing's ever worth the cost

And I know that I'm damned if I never get out
And maybe I'm damned if I do
But with every other beat I got left in my heart
You know I'd rather be damned with you

Well, If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
Dancing through the night with you
If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
Gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
Gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
Dancing through the night
Dancing through the night
Dancing through the night with you

Oh Baby, you're the only thing in this whole world
That's pure and good and right
And wherever you are and wherever you go
There's always gonna be some light

But I gotta get out I gotta break it out now
Before the final crack of dawn
So we gotta make the most of our one night together
When it's over you know we'll both be so alone

Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes
When the night is over
Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone gone gone
Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes
But when the day is done and the sun goes down
And moonlight's shining through
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I'll come crawling on back to you
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I'll come crawling on back to you

I can see myself tearing up the road
Faster than any other boy has ever gone
And my skin is raw but my soul is ripe
And no one's gonna stop me now
I gotta make my escape
But I can't stop thinking of you
And I never see the sudden curve until it's way too late
And I never see the sudden curve till it's way too late

Then I'm dying at the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun
Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike
And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell
And the last thing I see is my heart
Still beating
Oh breaking out of my body and flying away
Like a bat out of hell

Then I'm dying at the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun
Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike
And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell
And the last thing I see is my heart
Still beating
Still beating
Oh breaking out of my body and flying away
Like a bat out of hell

Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell

R.E.M. - "Losing My Religion."

Oh, life is bigger
It's bigger than you
And you are not me

The lengths that I will go to
The distance in your eyes
Oh no, I've said too much
I set it up

That's me in the corner
That's me in the spotlight, I'm
Losing my religion

Trying to keep up with you
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no, I've said too much
I haven't said enough

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

Every whisper
Of every waking hour; I'm
Choosing my confessions

Trying to keep an eye on you
Like a hurt lost and blinded fool, fool
Oh no, I've said too much
I set it up

Consider this
Consider this
The hint of the century
Consider this

The slip that brought me
To my knees failed
What if all these fantasies
Come flailing around

Now I've said too much
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try
But that was just a dream
That was just a dream

That's me in the corner
That's me in the spotlight, I'm
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no, I've said too much
I haven't said enough

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

But that was just a dream
Try, cry, why try?
That was just a dream
Just a dream, just a dream
Dream

Staind - "For You."

To my Mother
To my Father
It's your son or
It's your daughter

Are my screams
Loud enough for
You to hear me?
Should I turn this up for you?

I sit here locked inside my head
Remembering everything you've said
The silence gets us nowhere
Gets us nowhere way too fast

The silence
Is what kills me
I need someone
Here to help me

But you don't know
How to listen
And let me make
My decisions

I sit here locked inside my head
Remembering everything you've said
The silence gets us nowhere
Gets us nowhere way too fast

All your insults
And your curses
Make me feel like
I'm not a person

And I feel like
I am nothing
But you make me
So do something

'Cause I'm fucked up
Because you are
Need attention
Attention you couldn't give

I sit here locked inside my head
Remembering everything you've said
The silence gets us nowhere
Gets us nowhere way too fast

I sit here locked inside my head
Remembering everything you've said
The silence gets us nowhere
Gets us nowhere way too fast

Metallica - "The Unnamed Feeling."

Been here before
Been here before
Been here before
Been here before
Been here before
Been here before

Been here before, couldn't say I liked it
Then do I start writing all this down
Just let me plug you into my world
Can't you help me be un-crazy

Name this for me, heat the cold air
Take the chill off of my life
And if I could I'd turn my eyes
To look inside to see what's coming

It comes alive
It comes alive
It comes alive
And I die a little more
It comes alive
It comes alive
It comes alive
Each moment here I die a little more
Ooh, I die I die I die a little more...

Then the unnamed feeling
It comes alive
Then the unnamed feeling
Takes me away

Been here before
Been here before
Been here before
Been here before
Been here before
Been here before

I'm frantic in your soothing arms
I cannot sleep in this down filled world
Found safety in this loneliness
But I cannot stand it any more

Cross my heart hope not to die
Swallow evil, ride the sky
Lose myself in a crowded room
You fool, you fool, it'll be here soon

It comes alive
It comes alive
It comes alive
And I die a little more
It comes alive
It comes alive
It comes alive
Each moment here I die a little more
Ooh, I die I die I die a little more...

Then the unnamed feeling
It comes alive
Then the unnamed feeling
Treats me this way

And I wait for this train
Toes over the line
Then the unnamed feeling
It takes me away, it takes me..

Then the unnamed feeling
It comes alive
Then the unnamed feeling
Takes me away
Yeah, it takes me away

Get the fuck out of here
I just wanna get the fuck away from me
I rage, I glaze, I hurt, I hate
I hate it all, why why why me?

I cannot sleep with a head like this
I wanna cry, I wanna scream
I rage, I glaze, I hurt, I hate
I wanna hate it all away

Then the unnamed feeling
It comes alive
Then the unnamed feeling
Treats me this way

Then the unnamed feeling
It comes alive
Then the unnamed feeling
Takes me away...

Snow Patrol - "You're All I Have."

Strain this chaos, turn it into light
I've gotta see you one last night
Before the lions take their share
Leave us in pieces, scattered everywhere

Just give me a chance to hold on
Just give me something to hold on to
It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear cause you are all that I have

You're cinematic razor sharp
A welcome arrow through the heart
Under your skin feels like home
Electric shocks on aching bones

Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Just give me something to hold on to

It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear cause you are all that I have
It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear cause you are all that I have

There is a darkness deep in you
A frightening magic I cling to

Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Just give me something hold on to

It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear now you are all that I have
It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear now you are all that I have.

Evanescence - "Your Star."

I can't see your star
I can't see your star
Though I patiently waited,
Bedside, for the death of today
I can't see your star
The mechanical lights of Lisbon
Frightened it away

And I'm alone now
Me and all I stood for
We're wandering now
All in parts in pieces, swim lonely
Find your own way out

I can't see your star
I can't see your star
How can the darkness feel so wrong?

And I'm alone now
Me and all I stood for
We're wandering now
All in parts in pieces, swim lonely
Find your own way out

So far away
It's growing colder without your love
Why can't you feel me calling your name?
Can't break the silence, it's breaking me
All my fears turn to rage

And I'm alone now
Me and all I stood for
We're wandering now
All in parts and pieces, swim lonely
Find your own way out now

Yeah, nothing worth fighting for
We're wandering now
All in parts and pieces, swim lonely
Find your own way out.

Will Young - "Who Am I?"

Sometimes you know you push me so hard
I don't know how I feel
You almost make me doubt I feel at all

It's not as though I always listen
But there's just so much I don't hear
Maybe I'll never be what you want

I know that all you're asking for
Is a little place in my heart
But I don't find it easy to give

Maybe I get a little selfish sometimes
Why shouldn't I?
I used to say I love you
But would it make a difference this time?

And who am I to tell you
That I would never let you down
That no-one else could love you
Half as much as I do now

And who am I to tell you
I'll always catch you when you fall
Well I, I wouldn't be myself at all
I wouldn't be myself at all, at all.

I always find a reason why I didn't put you first
It's not that complicated I know
I really hate it when you shake your head like this ain't gonna work
Maybe you'll never reap what you sow

And who am I to tell you
That I would never let you down
That no-one else could love you
Half as much as I do now

And who am I to tell you
I'll always catch you when you fall
Well I, I wouldn't be myself at all
I wouldn't be myself at all, at all.

I didn't want to do what everybody does
And hide the truth to find we never knew a thing about love

'Cause this is real life, real love
And knowing what it comes down to
It just might be enough

And who am I to tell you
That I would never let you down
That no-one else could love you
Half as much as I do now

And who am I to tell you
I'll always catch you when you fall
Well I, I wouldn't be myself at all
I wouldn't be myself at all, at all.

And who am I to tell you
That I would never let you down
That no-one else could love you
Half as much as I do now

And who am I to tell you
I'll always catch you when you fall
Well I, I wouldn't be myself at all
I wouldn't be myself at all, at all...

Nine Inch Nails - "Closer."

You let me violate you.
You let me desecrate you.
You let me penetrate you.
You let me complicate you.

Help me; I broke apart my insides.
Help me; I've got no soul to sell.
Help me; the only thing that works for me
Help me get away from myself.

I want to fuck you like an animal
I want to feel you from the inside
I want to fuck you like an animal
My whole existence is flawed.

You get me closer to God.

You can have my isolation.
You can have the hate that it brings.
You can have my absence of faith.
You can have my everything.

Help me; tear down my reason.
Help me; it's your sex I can smell.
Help me; you make me perfect.
Help me become somebody else.

I want to fuck you like an animal
I want to feel you from the inside
I want to fuck you like an animal
My whole existence is flawed.

You get me closer to God.

Through every forest, above the trees.
Within my stomach, scraped off my knees.
I drink the honey inside your hive.
You are the reason I stay alive.

Evan & Jaron - "I Could Fall."

Nobody could hurt me like I know she could hurt me
But there's nothing in this world that I want more
Nobody could take me to the places that she takes me
Places that I've never been before

With my eyes wide open knowing full well

I could fall from heaven
I could fall from heaven
I could fall, I could break
That's the chance that I take
I could fall

Look at me, I'm flying, a breath away from dying
Holding on to her and letting go
As I walk across this wire above a lake of fire
And lean into the wind that starts to blow

With my eyes wide open knowing full well

I could fall from heaven
I could fall from heaven
I could fall, I could break
That's the chance that I take
I could fall

Do I hide my heart? Do I lock my door?
Do I tear it out so it don't feel no more?
No, I risk it all knowing that I could fall from heaven
I could fall from heaven

I could fall
I could fall
I could fall
I could fall
Fall, fall

Vertical Horizon - "Fall From The Sun."

Look at me, I'm an automatic
Look at me, I'm magnetic
Look at me, I'm careful not to let it show
Look at me

Look at me, I'm an aeroplane
Look at me, I'm so in vain
Look at me, I'm flying high and cracking up
Look at me

It's just another disaster
The way I come undone
Wish I could run away faster
Fall from the sun

Look at me, I'm your neighbour
Look at me, I'm your saviour
Look at me, I'm new to town, can you help me out
Look at me

It's just another disaster
The way I come undone
Wish I could run away faster
Fall from the sun

It's just another disaster
The colours fade to one
Wish I could make my way past her
Fall from the sun

Look at me, I'm where the wind blows
Look at me, I'm in the window
Look at me, I'm going up, can you pull me down?
Look at me

It's just another disaster
The way I come undone
Wish I could run away faster
Fall from the sun

It's just another disaster
The colours fade to one
Wish I could make my way past her
Fall from the sun

Simple Plan - "Me Against The World."

We're not gonna be just a part of their game
We're not gonna be just the victims
They're taking our dreams and they tear them apart
'Till everyone's the same

I've got no place to go
I've got nowhere to run.
They love to watch me fall
They think they know it all

I'm a nightmare, a disaster
That's what they always said
I'm a lost cause, not a hero
But I'll make it on my own

I've gotta prove them wrong
Me against the world
It's me against the world

We won't let them change how we feel in our hearts
We're not gonna let them control us
We won't let them shove all their thoughts in our heads
And we'll never be like them

I've got no place to go
I've got nowhere to run
They love to watch me fall
They think they know it all

I'm a nightmare, a disaster
That's what they always said
I'm a lost cause, not a hero
But I'll make it on my own

I've gotta prove them wrong
It's me against the world
World….world…world…
Me against the world
World….world…world…(scream)

Now I'm sick of this waiting
So come on and take your shot
You can spit out your insults
But nothing you say is gonna change us

You can sit there and judge me
Say what you want to
We'll never let you win.

I'm a nightmare, a disaster
That's what they always said
I'm a lost cause, not a hero
But I'll make it on my own

Me against the world

I'm a nightmare, a disaster
That's what they always said
I'm a lost cause, not a hero
But I'll make it on my own

I'm gonna prove them wrong
They'll never bring us down
We'll never fall in line
I'll make it on my own

Me against the world

Josh Woodward - "Fight The Sea."

Rotting driftwood on the foreign shores
Spilling out onto the ocean floor
And the memory is all you left without a trace

Paralysed with the thoughts receeding
The current sweeps you with its silent bleeding
Through the heart into the darkest place

Turn around, there's nothing to see here
Run away, no reason to be here
It's the ghost who never goes away

Turn around, and leave this behind now
See the ground as it bleeds into sky now
You fight the sea, you're always going to drown

All the secrets that you're holding
All the memories you hide
All the frail thoughts that echo in the corners of your mind

They won't even last a moment
They will soon be swept away
When the ocean takes you in its arms and carries you away

You carry all your burdens on the cross around your neck
You take whatever's left that you salvage from the wreck
And that haunted past will follow you like a lost dog on the beach
Nipping at your trail until you've drifted out of reach

Turn around, there's nothing to see here
Run away, no reason to be here
It's the ghost who never goes away

Turn around, and leave this behind now
See the ground as it bleeds into sky now
You fight the sea, you're always going to drown

The broken-line horizon and the castles made of sand
You tried to hold it in your hand, you tried to understand it
But the ocean asks the questions, and it holds the answers too
It dissolves away the lies about the things you thought you knew

David Gray - "Flesh."

As the bell must strike the hour
As the west must stab the sun
So our hearts must heed the flow
Of deeper tides that run

Far beyond the bare indifference
That prosperity esteems
Where the spirit raves and dances
Through our very veins

At winters edge you found me
By the fields of wild gold
My hands still filled with ashes
From fires long cold

You pulled me from the wreckage
Of bitterness and blame
Flung open the page
And put some flesh on the bones of my dreams

On the streets the blossom snowing
And the drum is beating slow
And I hear you speak so clear
Well I’m slicing through the fear

Setting all the beacons blazing, baby oh!
It's staring out plainer than ever
Brighter than all the fools gold that gleams
Iit's simply now or never

Putting flesh on the bones of my dreams
Putting flesh on the bones of my dreams
Putting flesh on the bones of my dreams

And they can plunder the cave of sorrows
They can strip the gallery bare
Try to build a fence around the visions in our heads,
Choke every spark in a cloak of despair

But we got something they can't stifle
With their price tags and picture frames
Got a flower for every rifle
Putting flesh on the bones of my dreams

Rufus Wainwright - "Hallelujah."

I heard there was a secret chord
That David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?

It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth,
The minor fall, the major lift,
The baffled king composing Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelu----jah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof,
You saw her bathing on the roof,
Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you

She tied you to a kitchen chair,
She broke your throne, she cut your hair,
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelu----jah

Maybe I have been here before,
I know this room; I have walked this floor,
I used to live alone before I knew you

I've seen your flag on the marble arch,
Love is not a victory march,
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelu----jah

There was a time you let me know
What's really going on below,
But now you never show it to me, do you?

Remember when I moved in you;
The holy dark was moving too,
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelu----jah

Maybe there's a God above,
And all I ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you

And it's not a cry you can hear at night,
It's not somebody who's seen the light,
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelu--jah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelu---u---jah

The Weakerthans - "None Of The Above."

All night restaurant, North Kildonan.
Luke warm coffee tastes like soap.
I trace your outline in spilled sugar,
killing time and killing hope.

This brand new strip mall chews on farmland
As we fish for someone to blame.
But we communicate in questions,
And all our answers sound the same.

Under sputtering flourescents,
After re-fills are re-filled.
Negotiations at a stand-still,
Spoon and rolling saucer stilled.

If you ask how I got so bitter,
I'll ask how you got so vain.
And all our questions blur together.
The answers always sound the same.

We can't look at one another.
I'll say something thoughtful soon,
But I can't listen to the quiet
so I hum this mindless tune

I stole from some dumb country-rock star.
I don't even know his name.
It's like my stupid little questions:
The answers always sound the same.

Tell me why we sound so lame.
Why we communicate in questions
And all our answers sound the same.
