Harder To Breathe[/u] Maroon 5
How dare you say that my behavior is unacceptable So condescending unnecessarily critical I have the tendency of getting very physical So watch your step cause if I do you'll need a miracle
You drain me dry and make me wonder why I'm even here This double vision I was seeing is finally clear You want to stay but you know very well I want you gone Not fit to fuckin' tread the ground that I am walking on
Uh, when it gets cold outside And you got nobody to love You'll understand what I mean when I say There's no way we're gonna give up (yeah, yeah, yeah) And like a little girl cries in the face Of a monster that lives in her dreams
Is there anyone out there 'Cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe Is there anyone out there 'Cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
What you are doing is screwing things up inside my head You should know better you never listened to a word I said Clutching your pillow and writhing in a naked sweat Hoping somebody someday will do you like I did
Uh, when it gets cold outside And you got nobody to love You'll understand what I mean when I say There's no way we're gonna give up (yeah, yeah, yeah) And like a little girl cries in the face Of a monster that lives in her dreams
Is there anyone out there 'Cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe Is there anyone out there 'Cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe, ooh
Does it kill Does it burn Is it painful to learn That it's me that has all the control
Does it thrill Does it sting When you feel what I bring And you wish that you had me to hold
Uh, when it gets cold outside And you got nobody to love You'll understand what I mean when I say There's no way we're gonna give up (yeah, yeah, yeah) And like a little girl cries in the face Of a monster that lives in her dreams
Is there anyone out there 'Cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe Is there anyone out there 'Cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe Is there anyone out there 'Cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe

All I Really Want[/u] Alanis Morissette
Do I stress you out My sweater is on backwards and inside out And you say how appropriate
I don't want to dissect everything today I don't mean to pick you apart you see But I can't help it
There I go jumping before The gunshot has gone off Slap me with a splintered ruler
And it would knock me to the floor If I wasn't there already If only I could hunt the hunter
And all I really want Is some patience A way to calm the angry voice
And all I really want Is deliverance Oh oh oh oh
Do I wear you out You must wonder why I'm relentless And all strung out I'm consumed by the chill of solitary
I'm like Estella I like to reel it in And then spit it out I'm frustrated by your apathy
And I am frightened by The corrupted ways of this land If only I could meet the Maker
And I am fascinated By the spiritual man I am humbled by his humble nature
What I wouldn't give To find a soulmate Someone else to catch this drift
And what I wouldn't give To meet a kindred Oh oh oh oh
Enough about me Let's talk about you for a minute Enough about you Let's talk about life for a while
The conflicts The craziness And the sound of pretenses falling All around, all around
Why are you so petrified of silence Here can you handle this
Did you think about your bills Your ex, your deadlines Or when you think you're gonna die Or did you long for the next distraction
And all I need now Is intellectual intercourse A soul to dig the hole much deeper
And I have no concept of time Other than it is flying If only I could kill the killer
All I really want Is some peace man A place to find a common ground
And all I really want Is a wavelength Oh oh oh oh
All I really want Is some comfort A way to get my hands untied
And all I really want Is some justice Oh oh oh oh
And all I really want

Where The Streets Have No Name[/u] U2
I want to run I want to hide I want to tear down the walls That hold me inside
I want to reach out And touch the flame Where the streets have no name, ah ah
I want to feel Sunlight on my face I see the dust cloud disappear Without a trace
I want to take shelter From the poison rain Where the streets have no name, ah ah
Where the streets have no name Where the streets have no name We're still building Then burning down love Burning down love
And when I go there I go there with you It's all I can do
The city's aflood And our love turns to rust We're beaten and blown by the wind Trampled in dust
I'll show you a place High on a desert plain Where the streets have no name, ah ah
Where the streets have no name Where the streets have no name We're still building Then burning down love Burning down love
And when I go there I go there with you It's all I can do
Our love turns to rust We're beaten and blown by the wind Blown by the wind Oh, and I see love
See our love turn to rust We're beaten and blown by the wind Blown by the wind
Oh, when I go there I go there with you It's all I can do

Winds of Change[/u] Scorpions
I follow the Moskva Down to Gorky Park Listening to the wind of change
An August summer night Soldiers passing by Listening to the wind of change
The world is closing in Did you ever think That we could be so close, like brothers
The future's in the air I can feel it everywhere Blowing with the wind of change
Take me To the magic of the moment on a glory night Where the children of tomorrow dream away In the wind of change
Walking down the street Distant memories Are buried in the past forever
I follow the Moskva Down to Gorky Park Listening to the wind of change
Take me To the magic of the moment on a glory night Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams With you and me
Take me To the magic of the moment on a glory night Where the children of tomorrow dream away In the wind of change
The wind of change blows straight Into the face of time Like a stormwind that Will ring the freedom bell
For peace of mind Let your balalaika sing What my guitar wants to say
Take me To the magic of the moment on a glory night Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams With you and me
Take me To the magic of the moment on a glory night Where the children of tomorrow dream away In the wind of change

Bridge Over Troubled Water[/u] Simon And Garfunkel
When you're weary Feeling small When tears are in your eyes I will dry them all I'm on your side Oh, when times get rough And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down
When you're down and out When you're on the street When evening falls so hard I will comfort you I'll take your part Oh, when darkness comes And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down
Sail on silver girl Sail on by Your time has come to shine All your dreams are on their way See how they shine Oh, when you need a friend I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water I will ease your mind Like a bridge over troubled water I will ease your mind

Every Rose Has Its Thorn[/u] Poison
We both lie silently still In the dead of the night Although we both lie close together We feel miles apart inside
Was it something I said or something I did Did the words not come out right Though I tried not to hurt you Though I tried, but I guess that's why they say
Every rose has its thorn Just like every night has its dawn Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song Every rose has its thorn
Yeah it does
I listen to our favorite song Playing on the radio Hear the DJ say loves a game Of easy come and easy go
But I wonder does he know Has he ever felt like this And I know that you'd be here somehow If I could have let you know somehow
I guess every rose has its thorn Just like every night has its dawn Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song Every rose has its thorn
Though it's been a while now I can still feel so much pain Like a knife that cuts you, the wound heals But the scar, that scar remains
I know I could have saved a love that night If I'd known what to say Instead of makin' love We both made our separate ways
But now I hear you found somebody new And that I never meant that much to you To hear that tears me up inside And to see you cuts me like a knife
I guess every rose has its thorn Just like every night has its dawn Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song Every rose has its thorn

Okay... I jsut adore this song... Makes me smile.
Fat Bottomed Girls[/u] Queen
Are you gonna take me home tonight Ah, down beside that red firelight Are you gonna let it all hang out Fat bottomed girls You make the rockin' world go 'round
Hey, I was just a skinny lad Never knew no good from bad But I knew life before I left my nursery
Left alone with big fat Fanny She was such a naughty nanny Heap big woman you made a bad boy out of me
I've been singing with my band Across the wire across the land I seen ev'ry blue eyed floozy on the way
But their beauty and their style Went kind of smooth after a while Take me to them dirty ladies every time
Oh, won't you take me home tonight Oh, down beside your red firelight Oh, and you give it all you got Fat bottomed girls You make the rockin' world go 'round Fat bottomed girls You make the rockin' world go 'round
Now your mortgages and homes I got stiffness in the bones Ain't no beauty queens in this locality
Oh, but I still get my pleasure Still got my greatest treasure Heap big woman you gonna make a big man out of me
Oh, you gonna take me home tonight Oh, down beside your red firelight Oh, you gonna let it all hang out Fat bottomed girls You make the rockin' world go 'round Fat bottomed girls You make the rockin' world go 'round Get on your bikes and ride
Ooh yeah Them fat bottomed girls
Fat bottomed girls Yeah yeah yeah Fat bottomed girls Yes yes

it seems that with the exception of Bridge over Troubled Waters most of the songs I recognise are remakes of much older songs-All by Myself was done by Nillson(sp?) and it pretty much sums up how I have felt my whole life

Nice To Know You[/u] Incubus
Better than watching gellar Bending silver spoons Better than witnessing Newborn nebulas in bloom She who sees from up High smiles and surely sings Perspective pries her once Weighty eyes and It gives you wings I haven’t felt the way I feel today In so long it’s hard For me to specify I’m beginning to notice How much this feels like A waking limb Pins and needles Nice to know you Goodbye Nice to know you Deeper than the deepest Coustou would ever go Higher than the heights of what We often think we know Oppressed that she who clearly Sees the wealth of the trees To obtain a bird’s eye is to Turn a blizzard to a breeze I haven’t felt the way I feel today In so long it’s hard For me to specify I’m beginning to notice How much this feels like A waking limb Pins and needles Nice to know you Goodbye Nice to know you To know...you Could it be that it had Been there all along I haven’t felt the way I feel today In so long it’s hard For me to specify I’m beginning to notice How much this feels like A waking limb Pins and needles Nice to know you Goodbye Nice to know you To know You

My Friend of Misery[/u] Metallica
You just stood there screaming Fearing no one was listening to you They say the empty can rattles the most The sound of your voice must soothe you Hearing only what you want to hear And knowing only what you’ve heard You you’re smothered in tragedy You’re out to save the world
Misery You insist that the weight of the world Should be on your shoulders Misery There’s much more to life than what you see My friend of misery
You still stood there screaming No one caring about these words you tell My friend before your voice is gone One man’s fun is another’s hell These times are sent to try men’s souls But something’s wrong with all you see You you’ll take it on all yourself Remember, misery loves company
Misery You insist that the weight of the world Should be on your shoulders Misery There’s much more to life than what you see My friend of misery
You just stood there creaming My friend of misery

Nothing Else Matters[/u] Metallica
Nothing else matters
So close no matter how far Couldn’t be much more from the heart Forever trusting who we are And nothing else matters
Never opened myself this way Life is ours, we live it our way All these words I don’t just say And nothing else matters
Trust I seek and I find in you Every day for us something new Open mind for a different view And nothing else matters
Never cared for what they do Never cared for what they know But I know
So close no matter how far Couldn’t be much more from the heart Forever trusting who we are And nothing else matters
Never cared for what they do Never cared for what they know But I know
Never opened myself this way Life is ours, we live it our way All these words I don’t just say And nothing else matters
Trust I seek and I find in you Every day for us something new Open mind for a different view And nothing else matters
Never cared for what they say Never cared for games they play Never cared for what they do Never cared for what they know And I know
So close no matter how far Couldn’t be much more from the heart Forever trusting who we are No nothing else matters

I Stand Alone[/u] Godsmack
I’ve told you this once before can’t control me If you try to take me down you’re gonna break I feel your having nothing that you’re doing for me I’m thinkin you are a fake, you are that way I stand alone Inside I stand alone You’re always hiding behind your so called goddess So what you don’t think that we can’t see your face Resurrecting back before the final fallen I’ll never rest until I can make my own way I’m not afraid of fading I stand alone Feeling your sting down inside me I’m not tired forever I stand alone Everything that I believe is fading I stand alone Inside I stand alone Now it’s my time It’s my time to dream Dream of the sky Make me believe that this place isn’t made by the poison in me Help me decide if my fire will burn out before you can breathe Breathe into me I stand alone Inside I stand alone Feeling your sting down inside me I’m not tired forever I stand alone Everything that I believe is fading I stand alone Inside I stand alone Inside I stand alone inside

Faceless[/u] Godsmack
Hate me with everything I’m better off without your animosity I’ll even sleep better at night...at night I won’t believe in you Reminded me of everything you put me through Now everything feels alright...alright
I feel so betrayed...mistaken I create another day You’ll be gone tomorrow Lie to me.. you’re faceless
You’ve made me out to be Responsible for your self-inflicted misery And never felt like this before...before Don’t be surprised to see That I have nothing left for you to bleed When you come crawling back for more...for more
I feel so betrayed...mistaken I create another day You’ll be gone tomorrow Lie to me...you’re faceless
I create another day You’ll be gone tomorrow Lie to me...you’re faceless
I create another day You’ll be gone tomorrow Lie to me...you’re faceless
I create another day You’ll be gone tomorrow Lie to me...you’re faceless

Dead & Broken[/u] Godsmack
Too many things I’ve never spoken I’m not feeling fine I never told you what to do I never made you a promise that you could hold me to That’ll be the day you see me crying
Everyday, I still say you’re dead and broken Everyday, I still say you’re dead and broken You’re dead and broken
How many faces can you show me? How many times can you be right? Another world of fantasy Another reason for dramatizing everything Taking it all in just one more time I’m dying
Everyday, I still say you’re dead and broken Everyday, I still say you’re dead and broken You’re dead and broken
Sorry to see that you’re underestimated lately I’d rather be dead and broken than living in your grace
Everyday, I still say you’re dead and broken Everyday, I still say you’re dead and broken You’re dead and broken You’re dead and broken You’re dead and broken You’re dead and broken You’re dead and broken You’re dead and broken You’re dead and broken

Outside[/u] Staind
And you bring me to my knees, again All this time that I could beg you please, in vain All the times that I felt insecure, for you And I leave my burdens at the door
I’m on the outside I’m looking in I can see through you See your true colors ’cause inside you’re ugly Ugly like me I can see through you See to the real you
All this time that I felt like this wont end It’s for you And I taste what I could never have Was from you All those times that I tried My intentions Full of pride And I waste more time than anyone
I’m on the outside I’m looking in I can see through you See your true colors Cause inside you’re ugly Ugly like me I can see through you See to the real you
All the times that I cried All this wastin It’s all inside And I feel all this pain Stuffed it down It’s back again And I lie here in bed All alone I cant mend but I feel Tomorrow will be okay
I’m on the outside I’m looking in I can see through you See your true colors Inside you’re ugly Ugly like me I can see through you See to the real you

Tears In Heaven[/u] Eric Clapton
Would you know my name If I saw you in heaven? Would you feel the same If I saw you in heaven? I must be strong and carry on ’cause I know I don’t belong here in heaven...
Would you hold my hand If I saw you in heaven? Would you help me stand If I saw you in heaven? I’ll find my way through night and day ’cause I know I just can’t stay here in heaven...
Time can bring you down, time can bend your knees Time can break your heart, have you begging please...begging please
Beyond the door there’s peace I’m sure And I know there’ll be no more tears in heaven...
Would you know my name If I saw you in heaven? Would you feel the same If I saw you in heaven? I must be strong and carry on ’cause I know I don’t belong here in heaven...

Big Empty[/u] Stone Temple Pilots
Drivin’ faster in my car Falling farther from just what we are Smoke a cigarette and lie some more These conversations kill Falling faster in my car
Time to take her home Her dizzy head is conscience laden Time to take a ride It leaves today no conversation Time to take her home Her dizzy head is conscience laden Time to wait too long To wait too long These conversations kill
To much walkin’, shoes worn thin Too much trippin’ and my soul’s worn thin Time to catch a ride It leaves today, her name is what it means To much walkin’, shoe’s worn thin

Don't Drink the Water[/u] Dave Matthews Band
Come out, come out, no use in hiding. Come out, come out, can you not see There’s no place here, what were you expecting? No room for both, just room for me. So you will lay your arms down, Yes, I will call this home. Away, away, you have been banished. Your land is gone, and given to me. And here I will spread my wings. Yes, I will call this home. What’s this you say, you feel a right to remain? Then stay and I will bury you. What’s that you say, your father’s spirit still lives in this place? Well, I will silence you. Here’s the hitch, your horse is leaving. Don’t miss your boat, it’s leaving now. And as you go I will spread my wings. Yes, I will call this home. I have no time to justify to you, Fool, you’re blind, move aside for me. All I can say to you my new neighbor, You must move on or I will bury you. Now as I rest my feet by this fire Those hands once warmed here, but I have retired them. I can breathe my own air and I can sleep more soundly Upon these poor souls, I’ll build heaven and call it home. Cause you’re all dead now. I live with my justice And I live with my greed in me I live with no mercy And I live with my frenzy feet I live with my hatred And I live with my jealousy I live with the notion that I don’t need anyone but me Don’t drink the water Don’t drink the water Blood in the water Don’t drink the water

Beautiful Let Down[/u] Switchfoot
It was a beautiful let down When I crashed and burned When I found myself alone unknown and hurt It was a beautiful letdown The day I knew That all the riches this world had to offer me Would never do
In a world full of bitter pain and bitter doubt I was trying so hard to fit in, fit in, Until I found out I don’t belong here I don’t belong here I will carry your cross and your song But I don’t belong
It was a beautiful letdown When you found me here Yeah for once in a blue moon I see everything clear I’ll be your beautiful letdown Thats what I’ve ever been And even if it costs my soul I’ll sing for free We still chasin our tails in the rising time In our dark third planet When no one fights and no one’s one
See I don’t belong here I will carry your cross and your song But I don’t belong here I’m gonna set sight and set sail for the kingdom come Kingdom come Your kingdom come Won’t you let me down yeah Let my foolish proud Forever let me down
Easy living not much left for pain Easy dieing hey they’re just abou the same Won’t you please take me off your list Easy living please come on and let me down
We are a beautiful let down, Painfully uncool, The church of the dropouts And loosers and sinners and failures and the fools Oh what a beautiful let down All resolved in the womb And join us he wants you too
I don’t belong here I don’t belong here I don’t belong here Feels like I don’t belong here Let me down Let me down Feels like I’m let down Let me down. Cuz I don’t belong here Please Won’t you let me down?
