Coheed and Cambria - Welcome Home

You could have been all I wanted
But you weren't honest
Now get in the ground
You choked off the surest of favors
But if you really loved me
You would have endured my world

Well if you're just as I presumed
A whore in sheep's clothing
Fucking up all I do
And if it's here we stop
Then never again
Will you see this in your life?

Hang on to the glory at my right hand
Here laid to rest, is our love ever longed?
With truth on the shores of compassion
You seem to take premise to all of these songs

You stormed off to scar the armada
Like Jesus played martyr,
I'll drill through your hands

The stone for the curse you have blamed me
With love and devotion, now die as you sleep.

But if you could just write me out
To never less wonder... happy will I become
Be true that this is no option,
So with sin I condemn you
Demon play, Demon out.

Hang on to the glory at my right hand
Here hes laid to rest is our love ever longed?
With truth on the shores of compassion
You seem to take premise to all of these songs

One last kiss for you
One more wish to you
Please make up your mind girl...
I'd do anything for you
One last kiss for you
One more wish to you
Please make up your mind girl...
Before I hope you die

It's a real song and not some stupid fluff written for teeny boppers trying to make everyone really happy.
 
Heros

We all want to be heroes,
yes, I know its true.

We ll want to be heroes,
instead of lettin; the Lord shine thru

We al want to be heroes
cause its easier than lovin' to do.

We all want ot be heroes
And leave the hurtin' and caring to you Oh lord
and leave the hurtin' and caring to you

We all want to be heroes
yes it's a natural fact

We all want ot be heroes,
but god's already seen our act

We all want to be heroes,
instead of lettin' the spirit impact.

We all want to be heroes, and shove your right out of the act, oh Lord
And shove you right out of the act.

So quit trying to be a hero
ad the lord come shing through

Quit trying to be a hero
and the lord'll make use of you

Quit trying to be a hero
and the world will come to know
that you're God's own chosen child by the joy they see in you.
 
Sung by Travis Tritt, written by Darrell Scott

It's A Great Day To Be Alive
I got rice cooking in the microwave
Got a three day beard I don't plan to shave
And it's a goofy thing but I just gotta say
Hey I'm doing alright

Yeah I think I'll make me some homemade soup
Feelin pretty good and that's the truth
It's neither drink nor drug induced
No I'm just doin alright

And it's a great day to be alive
I know the sun's still shinin when I close my eyes
There's some hard times in the neigborhood
But why can't every day be just this good?

It's been fifteen years since I left home
Said good luck to every seed I'd sown
Give it my best and then I left it alone
Oh...I hope their doin alright

Now I look in the mirror and what do I see?
A lone wolf there starin back at me
Long in the tooth but harmless as can be
Lord I guess he's doin alright

And it's a great day to be alive
I know the sun's still shinin when I close my eyes
There's some hard times in the neigborhood
But why can't every day be just this good?

Sometimes it's lonely
Sometimes it's only me
And the shadows that fill this room
Sometimes I'm fallin
Desperately callin
Howlin at the moon...
Ahwoo!
Ahwoo!

Well I might go get me a new tattoo
Or take my old Harley for a three day cruise
Might even grow me a Fu Man Chu...
Oh Aww!

And it's a great day to be alive
I know the sun's still shinin when I close my eyes
There's some hard times in the neigborhood
But why can't every day be just this good?

And it's a great day to be alive
I know the sun's still shinin when I close my eyes
There's some hard times in the neigborhood
But why can't every day be just this good?
 
It may not be the preacher who speaks so mightily
it may not be the soloist who sings so wonderf'ly
and it may not be the evengelist who sits at God's right hand
but it just might be the simple man who keeps all God's commands

REf:
For Its God the righteous judge of all
knows each and every heart
and God the righteous judge of all will
fill it from his heart
for God is the righteous judge of all.

Not every man who heals the sick or causes to walk lame
nor everyman who casts out demonsin his Holy Name
will walk the gold paved streets of heaven on that final day,
but there you'll find the simple man who kneels alone to pray

Repeat refrain at the end repeat and retard the last line.
 
There are far too many to choose just one, but this is A fav.

Change The World - Eric Clapton

If I could reach the stars I'd pull one down for you
Shine it on my heart so you could see the truth
That this love I have inside is everything it seems
But for now I find it's only in my dreams

CHORUS:
That I can change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You will think my love was really something good
Baby if I could change the world

If I could be king even for a day
I'd take you as my queen I'd have it no other way
And our love will rule in this kingdom we have made
Till then I'd be a fool wishin' for the day

CHORUS:
That I can change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You will think my love was really something good
Baby if I could change the world
Baby if I could change the world

- GUITAR SOLO -

CHORUS:
That I can change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You will think my love was really something good
Baby if I could change the world
Baby if I could change the world
Baby if I could change the world
 
RISE AGAINST
"Hero Of War"
He said "Son, have you seen the world?
Well, what would you say if I said that you could?
Just carry this gun and you'll even get paid."
I said "That sounds pretty good."

Black leather boots
Spit-shined so bright
They cut off my hair but it looked alright
We marched and we sang
We all became friends
As we learned how to fight

A hero of war
Yeah that's what I'll be
And when I come home
They'll be damn proud of me
I'll carry this flag
To the grave if I must
Because it's a flag that I love
And a flag that I trust

I kicked in the door
I yelled my commands
The children, they cried
But I got my man
We took him away
A bag over his face
From his family and his friends

They took off his clothes
They pissed in his hands
I told them to stop
But then I joined in
We beat him with guns
And batons not just once
But again and again

A hero of war
Yeah that's what I'll be
And when I come home
They'll be damn proud of me
I'll carry this flag
To the grave if I must
Because it's a flag that I love
And a flag that I trust

She walked through bullets and haze
I asked her to stop
I begged her to stay
But she pressed on
So I lifted my gun
And I fired away

The shells jumped through the smoke
And into the sand
That the blood now had soaked
She collapsed with a flag in her hand
A flag white as snow

A hero of war
Is that what they see
Just medals and scars
So damn proud of me
And I brought home that flag
Now it gathers dust
But it's a flag that I love
It's the only flag I trust

He said, "Son, have you seen the world?
Well what would you say, if I said that you could?"
 
Welcome To Texas
Brian Burns - (C)opr. 1999 - Brian Burns Music (BMI)

Welcome to Texas, glad that you came down,
you’ve got lots of friends here, take a look around.
They come from California, they come from Ohio,
they come from Minnesota to get out of the snow.

You don’t like our drivin’, you don’t like our roads,
you make fun of the way we talk, make fun of our clothes,
but you clog up our highways, been pourin’ in for years;
if you don’t like the way we do it, what are you doin’ here?

CHORUS:
Welcome to Texas, don’t anybody get me wrong;
we’re glad y’all came to see us, just don’t forget to go back home.

We don’t need your politics, we don’t need your prayers,
we don’t need your moral compass leadin’ us anywhere.
We don’t need your business, we don’t need your art,
we don’t really give a damn how you did things up north.

REPEAT CHORUS

You gripe about our music, gripe about our food,
gripe about the weather here, say it’s way too hot for you.
We hear all your whinin’, and it starts wearin’ thin
when we see our milk and honey runnin’ down your chin.

So come on down to Texas, have yourself a ball,
take the kids to Six Flags, and the wife out to the mall.
Have a good vacation, but then don’t hesitate
to point your car back up the road to that outbound interstate.
 
Gonna sit right down in my easy chair
Pull out a deck of cards, play some solitaire
Break out a bottle, wash me a glass
To keep me company 'til the feelings pass
Everybody needs someting to do
Me, I'll just sit here and think about you
It might seem hopeless, but it ain't that bad yet
It's just the blues as blues can get...

I need to call somebody, someone I can trust
I need the number for lovers' anonymous
I'll tell 'em my story, hope they understand
Maybe they can explain it to me
'cause I don't think I can
I'll take your picture down from my wall
Try to remember the thrill of it all
I know it's over, but it ain't over yet
It's just the blues as blues can get...

Why fight the feeling when I can't fight back the tears
I stare at the ceiling and wish that you were here
I'm going crazy, but I ain't crazy yet
It's just the blues as blues can get...

The Rolling Stones - Paint it Black

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
I see a line of cars and theyre all painted black
With flowers and my love both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a new born baby it just happens evry day
I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and it has been painted black
Maybe then Ill fade away and not have to face the facts
Its not easy facin up when your whole world is black

No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into the settin sun
My love will laugh with me before the mornin comes

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
Hmm, hmm, hmm,...
I wanna see it painted, painted black
Black as night, black as coal
I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black
Yeah!

Within Temptation - Our Solemn Hour

Sanctus Espiritus! redeem us from our solemn hour
Sanctus Espiritus! insanity is all around us
("I speak to you for the first time as Prime Minister in a solemn hour for the life of our country")

Sanctus Espiritus!
Sanctus Espiritus!
Sanctus Espiritus!

In my darkest hours
I could not foresee
That the tide could turn so fast to this degree
Can't believe my eyes
How can you be so blind?
Is the heart of stone, no empathy inside?

Time keeps on slipping away and we haven't learned
So in the end now what have we gained?

Sanctus Espiritus! redeem us from our solemn hour
Sanctus Espiritus! insanity is all around us
Sanctus Espiritus! is this what we deserve?
Can we break free from chains of never-ending agony?

Are they themselves to blame
The misery, the pain?
Didn't we let go?
Allowed it,let it grow
If we can't restrain
The beast which dwells inside
It will find it`s way somehow, somewhere in time

Will we remember all of the suffering
`Cause if we fail it will be in vain

Sanctus Espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour
Sanctus Espiritus, insanity is all around us
Sanctus Espiritus, is this what we deserve?
Can we break free from chains of never-ending agony?

Sanctus Espiritus!
Sanctus Espiritus!
(" A tremendous battle is raging in France and Flanders. The Germans, by a remarkable combination of air bombing and heavily armored tanks, have broken through the French defenses north of the Maginot Line, and strong columns of their armored vehicles are ravaging the open country, which for the first day or two was without defenders...")

Sanctus Espiritus! redeem us from our solemn hour
Sanctus Espiritus! insanity is all around us
Sanctus Espiritus! is this what we deserve?
Can we break free from chains of never-ending agony? (ending agony!)

Sanctus Espiritus! redeem us from our solemn hour (solemn hour!)
Sanctus Espiritus! insanity is all around us (all around us!)
Sanctus Espiritus! is this what we deserve?
Can we break free from chains of never-ending agony?

JB: The Essential Soundtrack


Jimmy Ruffin - What Becomes Of The Broken-hearted
As I walk this land with broken dreams
I have visions of many things
Love's happiness is just an illusion
Filled with sadness and confusion,
What becomes of the broken hearted
Who had love that's now departed?
I know I've got to find
Some kind of peace of mind
Maybe.
The fruits of love grow all around
But for me they come a tumblin' down.
Every day heartaches grow a little stronger
I can't stand this pain much longer
I walk in shadows
Searching for light
Cold and alone
No comfort in sight,
Hoping and praying for someone to care
Always moving and goin to where
What becomes of the broken hearted
Who had love that's now departed?
I know I've got to find
Some kind of peace of mind
Maybe.
I'm searching though I don't succeed,
But someone look, there's a growing need.
Oh, he is lost, there's no place for beginning,
All that's left is an unhappy ending.
Now what's become of the broken-hearted
Who had love that's now departed?
I know I've got to find
Some kind of peace of mind
I'll be searching everywhere
Just to find someone to care.
I'll be looking everyday
I know I'm gonna find a way
Nothings gonna stop me now
I'll find a way somehow
I'll be searching everywhere

Icon of Coil - Shelter
Punishment for intolerence,
So entertain us when you're still able to perform
I'm sorry to admit that I won't be around,
When the world you created will collapse and drown
And drown
Collapse
And drown

Back to the crypt, nothing will last
We'll all fade away in one single blast
Out from the dust, machines arise
One second left to live, and we'll open our eyes

I can't find shelter in this world
I'm searching for another world
Where I feel safe

Punishment for intolerence,
So entertain us when you're still able to perform
I'm sorry to admit that I won't be around,
When the world you created will collapse and drown
And drown

I can't find shelter in this world
I'm searching for another world
Where I feel safe
I can't find shelter in this world
I'm searching for another world
Where I feel safe

[Musical break]

I can't find shelter in this world
I'm searching for another world
Where I feel safe
I can't find shelter in this world
I'm searching for another world
Where I feel safe

I can't find shelter in this world
I'm searching for another world
Where I feel safe
I can't find shelter in this world
I'm searching for another world
Where I feel safe



Motograter - New Design
I woke up today
Didnt feel like i had slept at all
Just another restless night
Such a reckless life
I wish that i could take it slow
Live it simple day by day
But theres always something new
Something IN THE WAY
Id like to change the hands of time
Start over Someone and rewind
Break ground and build a new design
Start over leave this all behind
Thumbing through the paper
Its the same old black and white
One man gets to live
And a dozen have to die
The reality do we create
We cross the lines we love to hate
Something we see everyday
But we ALWAYS CHOOSE TO LOK AWAY
Id like to change the hands of time
Start over someone and rewind
Break ground and build a new design
Start over leave this all behind
The times have changed
But were still the same
The cycle just repeats itself
It goes on and on
The times have changed
But were still the same
The cycle just repeats itself
It goes on and on and on
On and on and on
Creeping down the boulevard
Among the walking dead
Amount to nearly everything
Excepting WHAT THEY SAID
Id like to change the hands of time
Start over someone and rewind
Break ground and build a new design
Start over leave this all behind
The times have changed
But were still the same
The cycle just repeats itself
It goes on and on
The times have changed
But were still the same
The cycle just repeats itself
It goes on and on and on

Bad Religion - Before You Die
Porcelain and alabaster, decaying ever faster
Unaware of imminent disaster, open up your eyes
As you ruminate the hopeless sands of time
Did you wander out your days lost and resigned?
Or recreate the universals in your mind?

Everybody is a bastard: my world is like plaster
Crumbling apart from pressure of the blaster
Waiting for a sign
And the momentary pleasures take their turn
As a wistful boy runs out of things to learn
The episodes of yore are never to return

Scare up some hope, you're gonna need it just to cope
You are the decision, numbers don't lie
When you bite the dust, was it for purpose or for trust?
You'll never relive it, think before you die
Yeah, think! Think before you die

Deficit and depravation, in the wake of desperation
Rewrite the morals, rectify the nation
Now may be your time

As you ruminate the hopeless sands of time
Do you wonder how your life has been defined?
You know eternity can't ever change your mind
You know eternity can't ever change your mind
So think! Think before you die Yeah, think!
Think before you die

The Kovenant - Planet of Apes
To many lies breeds to many flies
It's evolution through confusion
Hate is never without reason
Love is never without treason

Monkey see - Monkey do
Evolution was never true
Of all the lies they feed to you
What you see is what you do
Monkey me and monkey you

Godly parasites in massive invasion
Deformed creation... Unnatural Invention
Procreate, then desecrate - Inseminate, then devastate
No hope for humanity...It's a planet of apes

Monkey see - Monkey do
Evolution was never true
Of all the lies they feed to you
What you see is what you do
Monkey me and monkey you

Nothing new ever came out of someone like you
Don't decieve yourself thinking that you know what to do
What will you do when all your toys are broken
What will you say when all your lines are spoken

No hope for humanity.... it's a planet of apes

Gently violated and desecrated
The quintessential art of self-destruction
You left behind the will to believe in nothing
You are never going to be what you want to be

Monkey see - Monkey do
Evolution was never true
Of all the lies they feed to you
What you see is what you do
Monkey me and monkey you

Otep - Perfectly Flawed
If you do this
If you do this
If you do this youll never have a chance to try again
If you do this youll never have a chance to try

Its the same sound
The same sting
The same collapse
Of everything

Its the same slice
Same blade
The same lie
Same old vein

My weight, my face
My height, my race
Im a mistake

My weight, my face
My height, my race
Im such a disgrace

Youre perfectly flawed
Youre perfectly incomplete
Like cracks in the glass
And faded photographs

Youre perfectly flawed
Youre perfectly incomplete
Let them condemn
Imperfections make you unique

Nothing left to lose,
Just try again
Nothing left to lose,
Just try again

Its the same doubt
The same dream
Its the same sabotage
`Cause Im the enemy

Its the same night
The same day
Its the same parasites
Feedin on the betrayed

My weight, my face
My height, my race
Im a mistake

My weight, my face
My height, my race
Im such a disgrace

Youre perfectly flawed
Youre perfectly incomplete
Like cracks in the glass
And faded photographs

Youre perfectly flawed
Youre perfectly incomplete
A work in progress
Imperfections make you unique

A disguise of self deception
Hides my secrets perfectly

Im rejecting my reflection
`Cause I hate the way it judges me

Dont you do it,
Youre not even you yet

Dont you do it,
Youre not even you yet

Youre perfectly flawed
Youre perfectly incomplete
Like cracks in the glass
And faded photographs

Youre perfectly flawed
Youre perfectly incomplete
A work in progress
Imperfections make you unique

David Bowie - The Man Who Sold the World
We passed upon the stair,
we spoke of was and when
Although I wasn't there,
he said I was his friend
Which came as some surprise
I spoke into his eyes
I thought you died alone,
a long long time ago

Oh no, not me
I never lost control
You're face to face
With the man who sold the world

I laughed and shook his hand,
and made my way back home
I searched for form and land,
for years and years I roamed
I gazed a gazely stare
at all the millions here
We must have died along,
a long long time ago

Who knows? not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With the man who sold the world


 
Enya - Only Time
Who can say where the road goes,
Where the day flows, only time?
And who can say if your love grows,
As your heart chose, only time?

Who can say why your heart sighs,
As your love flies, only time?
And who can say why your heart cries
when your love lies, only time?

Who can say when the roads meet,
That love might be ,in your heart?
and who can say when the day sleeps,
and the night keeps all your heart?
Night keeps all your heart.....

Who can say if your love grows,
As your heart chose, only time?
And who can say where the road goes
Where the day flows, only time?

Who knows? Only time
Who knows? Only time



Kelly Osbourne - One Word
One word breaks the code of silence,
Silence tells me all I need to know.
One Word,
One Word, tells me everything I need to know.

One word driven into madness,
Madness driven by the depths below.
One Word,
One Word, tells me everything I need to know

[chorus]
It's not the way that I want it,
It's just the way that I need it.
Day after day
It's not the way that I want it,
It's just the way that I need it.
Day after day

One lie tells a thousand stories,
The greatest stories that were ever told.
One Lie,
One Lie, tells the greatest stories ever told.

One man can predict the future,
a future journey in to outer space.
One Man,
One Man, a future journey in to outer space.

It's not the way that I want it,
It's just the way that I need it.
Day after day
It's not the way that I want it,
It's just the way that I need it.
Day after day

It's not the way that I want it,
It's just the way that I need it.
Day after day
It's not the way that I want it,
It's just the way that I need it.
Day after day
Day after day
Day after day

Avez-vous toutes les informations
Un mot vous dit tout ce que vous avez besoin de savoir
Tout ce dont vous avez besoin
Jour après jour
On vous a menti
Un mot

It's not the way that I want it,
It's just the way that I need it.
Day after day
It's not the way that I want it,
It's just the way that I need it.
Day after day

It's not the way that I want it,
It's just the way that I need it.
Day after day
It's not the way that I want it,
It's just the way that I need it.
Day after day

Emilie Autumn - Across the Sky
See beyond the moment
Think beyond the day
Hear the word
My voice will not be cast away
Fatalistic fortune
Ever near the end
Love goes on
But Time does not return again

Across the sky
I will come for you
If you ask me to
Demystify
Your uncommon dreams
Stranger things have come true

Fear no more the midnight
Fear no more the sea
Close your eyes, regret nothing
You're safe with me
Look into the shadows
Step into the mist
Search your land but doubt never
I still exist


Ask yourself: is this all there is
Take no answer but the one you find
I have put my faith in aberrations of your kind
But even if you're in my mind


Should we hear the silence
Should we hear the noise
I don't need this blind acceptance
I have made my choice
Light lives in the darkness
Beauty lives in pain
In destruction we may lose ourselves
But still I will remain
Across the sky
Across the sky

See beyond the moment
Think beyond the day
Hear the word
Hear the word


Psyclon Nine - harlot

Harlot

The withered thorns that caress my tainted flesh
The shattered halo that shattered all our dreams
We’ve been condemned by the pages of false hope
We’ve been caressed by each others’ lives in death
Blood stained sheets
Mask our grief
Will render out tryst incomplete
Trudging through the carcass of what used to be a living world
Ten-thousand lovers of Gods forgotten child
We take our mark while on bent and bloody knees
Not saved alone but together we are exile


Psyclon Nine - Requiem for the Christian Age
בראש השנה יכחבון
וביום צוס כפור יחתמון
כמה יעברון
וכמה יבראון
מי יחיה
ומי ימות



Dismantled - What a Tragedy
Pull me closer to the sun
Until the armor melts away
Into your twilight
Now I know just what it's like
To see the world through your eyes
And how fast you use it up

All that human clay keeps reaching for your frame
Until it fills
All the cracks inside you
I can't understand it when you say

Their colors are so bright
And then they dim and you're on the ground

And when your consciousness comes back
Spitting up and calling out
There will be no shadows
Over you

And you'll scream:

What have I done; With my life
Give it all back; It's over
Won't be enough; To save me
What a tragedy!

And I will give it all up
Give it all up; So you could
Give me a chance; To hold you
Won't be enough; Won't be enough to save me
What a tragedy!

Now you're up and running from yourself
As the streetlights flash ahead
But they will lead you nowhere
Feel the skin starting to burn away
As your internals beg to stay
But you speed up anyway

All the strings you're tied to
Are pulling so much harder than before
But you can't cut through them
Even if you broke free
The shock would tear you apart
But you're way past caring now

Glowing frozen in that light
All your features so laid out
There'll be no shadows over you
As the twilight fades to black

You're not coming back




Nevermore - Believe in Nothing

into a strange new world, into the after
all your tears might find you've fallen too far
take another look, take another ride
can't we make them leave the hate behind

and I still believe in nothing
will we ever see the shape of tomorrow?

Into the empty storm, into the formless loss of hope,
Where we can forget the game

And I still believe in nothing
Will we ever see the cure for our sorrow

Nothing is sacred when no one is saved
Nothing's forever so count your days
Nothing is final and no one is real
Pray for tomorrow and find you're empty still

Nothing

(last one)
The Kovenant - Star by Star
We were alone and on our own, in the dark between the stars
From the shadows to the pyre, amidst the chaos, from the stars
Love, life and liberty, Hate, death and captivity
Like a stain of starless darkness, across the canvas of space

Star by Star
Corrupting all of humanity
So much alike are we
When I see you I see me

Galaxies glitter in the black night sky, Towards progress, towards death
From the stars we have come, and to the stars we will return

The violence of passion - The passion of violence
The perverse impulses - The savage egoism
The wicked presence - The wicked essence
The thing that unites us - The thing that divides us

Star by Star
Corrupting all of humanity
So much alike are we
When I see you I see me


Moonspell - Capricorn at Her Feet
Snowbird, ablaze and hurt.
Brighter, fearless, just like a runaway.
Princess never-a-smile.
Oh, child! What makes you try?
Crying and sobbing
You greet the other day

She who never touches ground.

Spreading an eclipse.
Where never the sun shines,
At her feet.

Frostbite, Astray, Will, Faith.
Haunting, hunting ,she rules the game.
Twin soul you are always a strange.
Nothing ever makes you afraid?
Promising, threatening.
She looks the other way

She who never touches ground.

Spreading an eclipse.
Where never the sun shines
At her feet.

Starlike, but never to be counted.
Look at your hands, child!
Destinies grow back to them.

Daughter sun
With nothing to say.
Never a fullmoon
Just the sickening ray.

Prudent.
In tears hiding,
No water shed.
The sign of the Cross
Will take you to bed.

In Capricorn.

Spreading an eclipse
May never the sun shine
At her feet

Mushroomhead - Solitaire Unraveling
Locked Away In A Cage
My Rage Has Got The Best Of Me
Time Finds A Way Each Day
Of Leaving Less Of Me Behind
I Find This Fight Must Be Won
Inside The Mind
So Uptight And Confined
Often Blinded By The Light
Taking It's Toll
On My System
Like Some Played Out Existence
Time Ticks Away
These Last Few Moments
Is There Anything
We've Left Unsaid?
I'm On A Quest
For Atonement
I've Got To Find Piece Of Mind
And A Place To Rest
Biding My Time
Until I'm Strong Enough
To Fight Back
Hope,
I Hope Against Hope
For Some Resistance
Been Taking It Out On My System
Rest-There's A Calm Before The Storm
And The Western Front Is Quiet
I've Got Rembrandt As My Right Hand
And Solo As My Pilot
Condemned Man
Condemned
Convicted Man
Convicted
Could Not Save My Life
Cutting Strand By Strand
Passing It Off
Like Some Kind Of King
You Don't Know Peace
'til You've Had Suffering
I've Suffered
All Of Your So Called Resolve
But You Haven't Tasted Pain
Have You Ever Been Inside
Of The New Masterpiece?
Rest
Have You Ever Been Inside?
Rembrandt As My Right Hand
And Solo As My Pilot
Have You Ever Been Inside
Of The New Masterpiece
Condemned Man
Condemned
Convicted Man
Convicted
Could Not Save My Life
Cutting Strand By Strand
Strand By
Strand By
Strand By Strand
Condemned


Edit:
Forgot one of the best!
I forgot one!
Assemblage 23 -Blindhammer
All our father's backs are broken
And our prophets are insane
There is no one left to guide us
No catalyst for change

We are too young to know better
But frailty comes with age
So we run towards Armageddon
While our legs still have the strength

And like a blind hammer
That destroys what it can't see
Tear down the walls of progress
And spit on our ancestry
Indiscriminate
And full of empty rage
Gunning down the fields of fear
We're unable to assuage

All our best days are behind us
And the path's strewn with debris
That we'll sweep beneath the carpet
Where no one else will see

We live beneath the specter
Of an omnipresent doom
We know for sure it's coming
It's just a question of how soon

And like a blind hammer
That destroys what it can't see
Tear down the walls of progress
And spit on our ancestry
Indiscriminate
And full of empty rage
Gunning down the fields of fear
We're unable to assuage

The world has changed around us
And our vision's grown opaque
We believe we have the answers
But never learn from our mistakes

There's a gift that lays before us
But it's barely out of reach
So we turn our backs and walk away
And sing our souls to sleep

And like a blind hammer
That destroys what it can't see
Tear down the walls of progress
And spit on our ancestry
Indiscriminate
And full of empty rage
Gunning down the fields of fear
We're unable to assuage

Let It Go - Randy Rogers Band

The wolf is always knocking
Behind your back somebody’s talking
Yeah the sun always sets at the end of the day
Nobody wins every game they play

Your lucky stars already taken
And every close call leaves you shaken
Don’t be afraid if you have to fold
Just count your blessings and hit the road

Let it go, let it ride
You couldn’t fix it if you tried
It’s a whole lot worse holding it all inside
Let it go, set it free
There are some things you aren’t supposed to keep
Don’t go crazy over what you can’t control
Let it go

When it’s fixed but it still feels broken
And your favorite guitar gets stolen
When your back’s up against the wall
And every step you take you fall

Let it go, let it ride
You couldn’t fix it if you tried
It’s a whole lot worse holding it all inside
Let it go, set it free
There are some things you aren’t supposed to keep
Don’t go crazy over what you can’t control
Let it go

Everything happens for a reason
And you aint gonna stop it
If you build your own prison
Only you have a key to unlock it

Let it go, let it ride
You couldn’t fix it if you tried
It’s a whole lot worse holding it all inside
Let it go, set it free
There are somethings you aren’t supposed to keep
Don’t go crazy over what you can’t control
Let it go
 
Closer to Believing Emerson, Lake and Palmer


I am closer to believing
Than I ever was before
On the crest of this elation
Must I crash upon the shore
And with the driftwood of acquaintance
Light the fire to love once more
I am wind blown...i am times.

To be closer to believing
To be just a breath away
On the death of inspiration
I would buy back yesterday
But theres no crueller illusion
Theres no sharper coin to pay
As I reach out... it slips away

From the opium of custom
To the ledges of extremes
Dont believe it till youve held it
Life is seldom what it seems
But lay your heart upon the table
And in the shuffling of dreams
Remember who on earth you are

I need me
You need you
We want us

But of course you know I love you
Or what else am I here for
Only you not face to face
But side by side for evermore
And I need to be here with you
For without you what am i
Just another fool out searching
For some heaven in the sky
Take me closer to believing
Take me forward lead me on
Through collision and confusion
While theres life beneath the sun
You are the reason I continue
So near for so long
So close yet so far away

I need me
You need you
We want us to live forever
So dont let the curtain fall
Measure after measure
Of writing on the wall
That burns so brightly
It blinds us all

I need me
You need you
We want us to be together
On sundays in the rain
Closer than forever
Against or with the grain
To ride the storms of love again

So be closer to believing
Though your world is torn apart
For a moment changes all things
And to end is but to start
And if your journeys unrewarded
May your God lift up your heart
You are windblown
But you are mine

This Is Goodbye Randy Rogers Band (couldn't find a video :( )

Well this is goodbye, the end of you and me
We’ve set this boat ablaze and pushed it out to sea
And nothing that’s on board will survive
This is goodbye

Well this is goodbye, not the kind we’ve had before
We’re out of one more tries, there won’t be anymore
And all the grays have turned to black and white
This is goodbye

This is hard, this is hell
This is pain like I have never felt
This is final, love has failed
This is walking away from us to save ourselves
This is goodbye

Well this is goodbye, in my heart there’s no doubt
Cause I can feel the broken pieces trying to cut their way out
Some of them I know I’ll never find
This is goodbye

This is hard, this is hell
This is pain like I have never felt
This is final, love has failed
This is walking away from us to save ourselves
This is goodbye
This is final, love has failed
This is walking away from us to save ourselves
This is goodbye
This is goodbye
 
Favorite lines from my favorite song- Ritual by Yes

Hold me my love, hold me today call me round
Travel we say, wander we choose love tune
Lay upon me, hold me around lasting hours
We love when we play

We hear a sound and alter our returning
We drift the shadows and course our way on home
Flying home
Going home

Look me my love sentences move dancing away
We join we receive
As our song memories long hope in a way
Nous sommes do soleil
