White Flag-Dido

I know you think that I shouldn't still love you
Or tell you that.
But if I didn't say it, well I'd still have felt it
Where's the sense in that?

I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder
Or return to where we were.

But I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender.
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be.

I know I left too much mess and destruction
To come back again.
And I caused nothing but trouble
I understand if you can't talk to me again.

And if you live by the rules of it's over,
Then I'm sure that that makes sense.

But I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender.
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be.

And when we meet, which I'm sure we will
All that was there will be there still.
I'll let it pass and hold my tongue
And you will think that I've moved on.

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender.
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be.

"Simon," Lifehouse

Catch your breath
Hit the wall
Scream out loud
As you start to crawl
Back in your cage
The only place
Where they will
Leave you alone

Cause the weak will seek the weaker
Till they've broken them
Could you get it back again?
Would it be the same?
Fulfillment to their lack of strength
At your expense
Left you with no defense
They tore it down

And I have felt the same as you
I've felt the same as you
I've felt the same

Locked inside
The only place
Where you feel sheltered
Where you feel safe
You lost yourself
In your search to find
Something else
To hide behind

The fearful always preyed upon your confidence
Didn't they see the consequence?
They pushed you around
The arrogant build kingdoms made of the different ones
Breaking them till they've become
Just another crown

Refuse to feel
Anything at all
Refuse to slip
Refuse to fall
Can't be weak
Can't stand still
Watch your back
'Cause no one will

You don't know why they had to go this far
Traded your worth for these scars
For your only company
Don't believe the lies that they have told to you
Not one word was true
You're all right
You're all right
You're all right

Old school Lifehouse in specific. They don't really sound unique anymore. :( I loves their first two albums, though.

"Wake Up," Arcade Fire

Something filled up
My heart with nothing
Someone told me not to cry

But now that I'm older
My heart's colder
And I can see that it's a lie

Children, wake up
Hold your mistake up
Before they turn the summer into dust

If the children don't grow up
Our bodies get bigger but our hearts get torn up
We're just a million little gods causing rain storms turning every good thing to
rust

I guess we'll just have to adjust

With my lightnin' bolts a glowin'
I can see where I am goin' to be
When the reaper he reaches and touches my hand

With my lightnin' bolts a glowin'
I can see where I am goin’
With my lightnin' bolts a glowin'
I can see where I am, go-go, where I am

You'd better look out below

I am the son, and the heir
Of a Shyness that is Criminally Vulgar
I'm the Son and Heir
Of Nothing in Particular

You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does

I love those lyrics...

Two moar.

"The Fluke," Devin Townsend

I am a fluke in the world
I haven't spoken a single word
I'll have to wade through the bullshit, baby,
Just to find my own vision of pearl

I am a fluke in your world
And even though it's a bit absurd
I've been living in a dreamworld, man
And I hope you'll enjoy what I've heard

Can't you see through me?
Can't you hear through me?
Just a moment in time...

Freak
Fluke

Down and under I've felt the toll
You can't hurt me any more

I'm not afraid of you anymore

Can't you see through me?
Can't you hear through me?

"How to Fight Loneliness," Wilco

How to fight loneliness
Smile all the time
Shine your teeth to meaningless
And sharpen them with lies

And whatever is going down
Will you follow around
That's how you fight loneliness

You laugh at every joke
Drag your blanket blindly
Fill your heart with smoke

And the first thing that you want
Will be the last thing you'll ever need
That's how you fight it

Just smile all the time
Just smile all the time
Just smile all the time
Just smile all the time

Gave up tryin' to figure it out
But my head got lost along the
Worn out from giving it up
My soul, I pissed it all away

Still shakes these shattered nerves
Pigs, we get what pigs deserve
I'm going all the way down
I'm leavin' today

Come, come, come on, you've gotta fill me up
Come, come, come on, you've gotta let me inside of you
Come, come, come on, you've gotta fix me up
Come, come, come on, you've gotta let me inside of you

Still feel it all slippin' away
But it doesn't matter anymore
Everyone's still slippin' away
But it doesn't matter anymore

Look through these blackened eyes
You'll see then thousand lies
My lips may promise
But my heart is a whore

This isn't meant to last, this is for right now

I know it's all getting away
But it comes as no surprise
I know what's coming to me
Is never going to arrive

Flesh blood through tired skin
New sweat to drown me in
Dress up this rotten carcass
Just to make it look alive

I wish I could put the blame on you

I want you to make me
I want you to take me
I want you to break me
Then, I want you to throw me away

Jimmy Buffett - Cowboy In The Jungle

There's a cowboy in the jungle
And he looks so out of place
With his shrimpskin boots and his cheap cheroots
And his skin as white as paste

Headin' south to Paraguay
Where the Gauchos sing and shout
Now he's stuck in Porto Bello
Since his money all ran out
So he hangs out with the sailors
Night and day they're raisin' hell
And his original destination's just another
Story that he loves to tell

With no plans for the future
He still seems in control
From a bronco ride to a ten foot tide
He just had to learn to roll

Chorus:
Roll with the punches
Play all of his hunches
Make the best of whatever came his way
What he lacked in ambition
He made up with intuition
Plowing straight ahead come what may

Steel band in the distance
And their music floats across the bay
While American women in moomoos
Talk about all the things they did today
And their husbands quack about fishing
As they slug those rum drinks down
Discussing who caught what and who sat on his butt
But it's the only show in town.

Chorus:
They're tryin' to drink all the punches
They all may lose their lunches
Tryin' to cram lost years into five or six days
Seems that blind ambition erased their intuition
Plowin' straight ahead come what may.

I don't want to live on that kind of island
No I don't want to swim in a roped off sea
Too much for me, too much for me
I've got to be where the wind and the water are free.

Alone on a midnight passage
I can count the falling stars
While the Southern Cross and the satellites
They remind me of where we are
Spinning around in circles
Living it day to day
And still twenty four hours may be sixty good years
It's still not that long a stay.

Chorus:
We've gotta roll with the punches
Learn to play all of our hunches
Makin' the best of whatever comes your way
Forget that blind ambition
And learn to trust your intuition
Plowin' straight ahead come what may
And there's a cowboy in the jungle

I'm still alive
Must have been a miracle
It's been a hell of ride
Destination still unknown
It's a fact of life:
If you make one wrong move with a gun to your head
You better walk the line or you'll be left for dead

I'm a runaway train on broken track
I'm the ticker on the bomb that you can't turn back this time
That's right
I got away with it all and I'm still alive
Let the end of the world come tumbling down
I'll be the last man standing on the ground
As long as hot blood runs trough my veins
I'm still alive

Lost in the night
Feeling so invisible
Oh, a dead man walking the wire
High above the devils net
That's made of fire
And it's a long way down from the top of the world
You better look around or you gonna get burned

I'm a runaway train on abroken track
I'm the ticker on the bomb that you can't turn back this time
That's right
I got away with it all and I'm still alive
Let the end of the world come tumbling down
I'll be the last man standing on the ground
And as the dust clears look in my eyes
I'm still alive
I'm still alive

The darkest night ain't black enough
To keep the morning light from shinin'
The highest wall ain't tall enough
To keep the smallest man from climbin'

The more that you resist the tide
The more it pulls you in
The more you hang on for your life

(I'm a runaway train on broken track)
(I'm the ticker on the bomb that you can't turn back this time)
(that's right)
That's right
I got away with it all and I'm still alive

I'm a runaway train on broken track
I'm the ticker on the bomb that you can't turn back this time
That's right
I got away with it all and I'm still alive
Let the end of the world come tumbling down
I'll be the last man standing on the ground
And if my sad old sonnet survives
I'm still alive
I'm still alive...

Exhaustion takes the wheel and separates situations into delusions
Rips apart the clouds and points fingers in my face
Shouting, “everything will stay the same until you change”
Dosed up and motivation-less today

Too tired to run, too sickly to stay
Cornered in a corner, it’s a place called everyday

This autopilot life, sawed off after the first couple branches
Pity doesn’t cut it, we can barley afford this
I cant afford your living wage
I can attempt to free this day and age

Too tired to run, too sickly to stay
Cornered in a corner, it’s a place called everyday

Fuck that!
I’m digging out!
I got a shovel and a future that says
I’m gonna be ok from now until it ends

I got a shovel and some paper that says
I’m gonna be ok from now until it ends
I got a shovel and a future that says
I’m gonna be ok from now until it ends

Until it ends!

Sometimes in our lives we all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow

Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you don't let show

Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

If there is a load you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call me

So just call on me brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on

Lean on me when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
Till I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

Lean on me...

"Turn the Page," Bob Seger

On a long and lonesome highway east of Omaha
You can listen to the engine moanin' out his one note song
You can think about the woman or the girl you knew the night before
But your thoughts will soon be wandering the way they always do
When you're ridin' sixteen hours and there's nothin' much to do
And you don't feel much like ridin', you just wish the trip was through

Here I am on the road again
There I am up on the stage
Here I go playin' star again
There I go turn the page

Well you walk into a restaurant, strung out from the road
And you feel the eyes upon you as you're shakin' off the cold
You pretend it doesn't bother you but you just want to explode
Most times you can't hear 'em talk, other times you can
All the same old cliches, "Is that a woman or a man?"
And you always seem outnumbered, you don't dare make a stand

Here I am on the road again
There I am up on the stage
Here I go playin' star again
There I go turn the page

Out there in the spotlight you're a million miles away
Every ounce of energy you try to give away
As the sweat pours out your body like the music that you play
Later in the evening as you lie awake in bed
With the echoes from the amplifiers ringin' in your head
You smoke the day's last cigarette, rememberin' what she said

"Creeping Death" by Metallica...an amazing song sung from the perspective of the Plague of the First-Born

Slaves
Hebrews born to serve, to the pharaoh
Heed
To his every word, live in fear
Faith
Of the unknown one, the deliverer
Wait
Something must be done, four hundred years
So let it be written
So let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written
So let it be done
To kill the first born pharaoh son
I'm creeping death

Now
Let my people go, land of goshen
Go
I will be with thee, bush of fire
Blood
Running red and strong, down the nile
Plague
Darkness three days long, hail to fire

So let it be written
So let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written
So let it be done
To kill the first born pharaoh son
I'm creeping death

Die by my hand
I creep across the land
Killing first born man
Die by my hand
I creep across the land
Killing first born man

I
Rule the midnite air the destroyer
Born
I shall soon be there, deadly mass
I
Creep the steps and floor final darkness
Blood
Lambs blood painted door, I shall pass

So let it be written
So let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written
So let it be done
To kill the first born pharaoh son
I'm creeping death

Try to be best
'cause you're only a man
and a man's gotto learn to take it
try to believe
when the going gets rough (When the things get
difficult)
that you gotta hang tough to make it (to be strong)

History repeats itself
try and you'll succeed
never doubt that you're the one
and you can have your dream

you're the best around
nothing is gonna ever keep you down

you're the best around
nothing is gonna ever keep you down

you're the best around
nothing is gonna ever keep you down

Fight till the end
'Cause your life will depend
On the strength that you have inside you
Gotta be proud
standing out in the crowd
when they odds of the game defy you (When most of the
things in the game are against you)

try your best to win them all
and one day time will tell
when you're the one that's standing there
you've reached the final bell

you're the best around
nothing is gonna ever keep you down

you're the best around
nothing is gonna ever keep you down

you're the best around
nothing is gonna ever keep you down

(instrumental)

you're the best around
nothing is gonna ever keep you down

you're the best around
nothing is gonna ever keep you down

Fight till you drop
Never stop
You can't give up until you win sometime
(Fight!)
You're the best in town
(Fight!)
Listen to that sound
A little bit of all you've got
never bring you down!
