Demon(s) from Darkest Hour


You and me were the same
Asking for more, more than her numbing existence
Offered us all

What did they say?
What did they do?
To make you crawl back in
Despite everything that you've been through,
You're still right here

Where I left you

We can lift up our hands to the sky
Find all those strings that they're pulling
And keep from falling back
Into our own reposes
It's turning us into machines

And one of these days we'll no longer betray
Ourselves in any way
We will all look the same way down

And one of these days we'll no longer betray
Ourselves in any way
And we'll all take the same way out

And all these illusions
Crush all who say you believe us
Crowding around as they

Hold, me, down
And throw me out
While all the rest of the others
Bring all their heads in the trenches

And one of these days we'll no longer betray
Ourselves in any way
And we'll all take the same way out

And one of these days we'll no longer betray
Ourselves in any way
And we'll all look the same way down

And one of these days we'll no longer betray
Ourselves in any way
And we'll all take the same way out

So don't give up on me
We can still pretend it's a dream
That'll work itself out in the end

Die Religion Die from Brian "Head" Welch


I'm sick of all your rules
They're so man-made
You treat them all like fools
You put my name to shame
I'm everything you're not
I give them love
My ways you have forgot
You put yourselves above

I'll testify!
It's time to see religion die!
The truth can't lie!
It's time to see religion die!
Who cares? Who's right?
It's time to see religion die!
I'll crush the fight!
It's time to see religion die!

My church is not inside your building walls
On Sundays you all hide, while the world just falls
Now go into the world and destroy Hell
You have authority, use it for the kill

I'll testify!
It's time to see religion die!
The truth can't lie!
It's time to see religion die!
Who cares? Who's right?
It's time to see religion die!
I'll crush the fight!
It's time to see religion die!

Children come away with me
I want you all to be mine
I am taking back what's mine
And you've killed too much time
With pointing all your fingers
At your kids that's why they're lost
Try to look deep in their eyes
You will see suicide
Blame it on yourself
'Cause no one else will pay your price, your price

Die just, die religion die, just die
Die just, die religion die, just die
Die! Die! Die! Die! Die! Die! Die!
Die! Religion, die! Die! Die! Die!

Do not be afraid
Religion is man-made
Everything is okay
The rules have just been changed

Black Masks And Gasoline from Rise Against


Simply because you can breathe doesn't mean you're alive,
Or that you really live,
This life here has taken it's toll
And she just doesn't know how much more she can give

But here, at the top of the world, where I raise my hands and I clench my fists,
They stand before me below demanding the answers with flip of a switch

I don't understand where you got this idea,
So deeply engrained in your head
That this world is something that you must impress
'Cause I couldn't care less

A need for revolution's rising, it comes to the surface, gasping for air,
And we're not putting up with this planet one more day, much less one more year

I don't understand where you got this idea,
So deeply engrained in your head
That this world is something that you must impress
'Cause I couldn't care less

So here and now, in our rotting nation
the blood, it pours, it's all on our hands now
we live, in fear, of our own potential
to win, to lose, it's all on our hands now

And I have an American Dream,
But it involves black masks and gasoline,
one day I'll turn these thoughts into screams,
at a world turned its back down on me

I don't understand where you got this idea,
So deeply engrained in your head
That this world is something that you must impress
'Cause I couldn't care less

Sacrifice Theory from A.F.I.


Hear one thousand screams.
Hear one thousand voices.
A solitary echo.
Feel one thousand pains,
But one is receiving a bloody invitation.

Do you want to feel the warmth?
To taste the life, to taste the life
Do you want taste the life?
To taste the life, to taste the life flow?
Go, go

Feel one thousand lost
sinking into soft skin
Ingest rejuvenation
One to consume
One to renew
Demanded invitation

Do you want to feel the warmth?
To taste the life, to taste the life
Do you want taste the life?
To taste the life, to taste the life flow?

I offer grace,
I offer blood.
I offer everything till my heart is crystal clear.
I offer grace,
I offer blood.
I offer everything till my heart is crystal clear.

Let me taste the life flow.

Do you want to feel the warmth?
To taste the life, to taste the life
I want to taste the life.
To taste the life, to taste the life flow.
Go, go, woah, go

Fast Forward To 2012 from A Day To Remember


We welcome you to the second chapter
Thanks for turning the other page
We acknowledge you as the only reason for the progress that we've made
You're a constant reminder we came, we saw, we conquered
Everything has come so far from where we were before
We'd like to keep this short and sweet so I'll get to the point
My friends come first, that's the bottom line
My friends come first, that's the bottom line
My friends come first, that's the bottom line
My friends come first, that's the bottom line
That's the bottom line
Here's to the future, never getting older
When the tables do turn where will you be?
Pick up your feet

You Should Have Killed Me When You Had The Chance from A Day To Remember


So I say goodbye to a town that has ears and eyes
I can hear you whispering as I walk by (as I walk by)
Familiar faces smiling back at me and I knew
This would make them change (make them change)

The only thing that's going to bother me
Is that you'll all call yourselves my friends
Why can't you look me in the eye one last time?

The writings on the wall, you've read that I'll be gone, but if you call my name
Just know that I'll come running, for one more night to spare with you
This is where I'm meant to be, please don't leave me

I've read these stories a thousand times, and I'll rewrite them all
You're meddling in an anger you can't control
She means the world to me, so hold your serpent tongue
Is a *****s lies worth dying for? I'll just take my time

The only thing that's going to bother me
Is that you'll all call yourselves my friends
Why can't you look me in the eyes one last time?

The writings on the wall, you've read that I'll be gone, but if you call my name
Just know that I'll come running, for one more night to spare with you
This is where I'm meant to be, please don't leave me

I walked into your house this morning
I brought the gun from our end table
Your blood was strewn across the walls
They'll find you on your bathroom floor

I walked into your house this morning
I brought the gun from our end table
Your blood was strewn across the walls
They'll find you on your bathroom floor when I'm done

But should I write it all off?
But should I write it all off?

(You should have killed me when you had the chance)
But should I write it all off?
(You should have killed me when you had the chance)
But should I

You should have killed me when you had the chance
You should have killed me when you had the chance

Ain't No Sunshine - Michael Jackson

You ever want something
that you know you shouldn't have
The more you know you shouldn't have it,
The more you want it
And then one day you get it,
It's so good too
But it's just like my girl
When she's around me
I just feel so good, so good
But right now I just feel cold, so cold
Right down to my bones
'Cause ooh...
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's always gone too long
Anytime she goes away

Wonder this time where she's gone
Wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away

I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, know, know, know, know,
I know, I know,
Hey I ought to leave
I ought to leave her alone
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Only darkness every day
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away

I Wanna Be Where You Are - Michael Jackson

Can it be I stayed away too long
Did I leave your mind when I was gone
It's not my thing trying to get back
But this time let me tell you where I'm at
You don't have to worry 'cause I'm coming
Back to where I should have always stayed
And now I've heard the maybe to your story
And it's enough love for me to stay

Can it be I stayed away too long
Did I leave your mind when I was gone
It's not my thing trying to get back
But this time let me tell you where I'm at

Chorus:
I wanna, wanna be where you are
Anywhere you are
I wanna, wanna be where you are
Everywhere you are

Bridge:
Please don't close the door to our future
There's so many things we haven't tried
I could love you better than I used to
And give you all the love I have inside

Chorus:
I wanna, wanna be where you are
Any, any, anywhere you are
I wanna, wanna be where you are
I gotta be where you are

In Our Small Way - Michael Jackson

Refrain
Maybe you and I can't do great things
We may not change the world in one day
But we still can change some things today...
In our small way

Empty words are not enough
Where there's hurt we'll be a crush
When there's thirst we'll fill each other's cup
Because we care we love enough to share

Refrain
Maybe you and I can't do great things
We may not change the world in one day
But we still can change some things today...
In our small way

In despair we'll be the hope
And the prayer that frees the soul
We'll be there to share each lonely road
Because we love, I know
We care enough

Refrain
Maybe you and I can't do great things
We may not change the world in one day
But we still can change some things today...
In our small way

Just a little time is all it takes
What a difference just a smile can make, you'll see
Love is all we need

Refrain
Maybe you and I can't do great things
We may not change the world in one day
But we still can change some things today...
In our small way

Got To Be There - Michael Jackson

Got to be there, got to be there
In the morning
When she says hello to the world
Got to be there, got to be there
Bring her good times
And show her that she's my girl
Oh what a feeling there'll be
The moment I know she loves me
'Cause when I look in her eyes I realize
I need her sharing her world beside me

So I've got to be there
Got to be there in the morning
And welcome her into my world
And show her that she is my girl
When she says, "Hello world!"
I need her sharing the world beside me

That's why I've got to be there
Got to be there where love begins
And that's everywhere she goes
I've got to be there so she knows
That when she's with me, she's home

Got to be there
Got to be there

Rockin' Robin - Michael Jackson

He rocks in the tree tops all day long
Hoppin' and a-boppin' and singing his song
All the little birdies on Jaybird Street
Love to hear the robin go tweet tweet tweet
Chorus :
Rockin' robin, rock rock
Rockin' robin'
Blow rockin' robin
'Cause we're really gonna rock tonight

Every little swallow, every chick-a-dee
Every little bird in the tall oak tree
The wise old owl, the big black crow
Flappin' their wings singing go bird go

Chorus

Pretty little raven at the bird-band stand
Told them how to do the bop and it was grand
They started going steady and bless my soul
He out-bopped the buzzard and the oriol

He rocks in the tree tops all day long
Hoppin' and a-boppin' and singing his song
All the little birdies on Jaybird Street
Love to hear the robin go tweet tweet tweet

Chorus

Wings Of My Love - Michael Jackson

When this old world gets you down
When your spirit's on the ground
Just remember I will always be around
Just climb on the wings of my love
I'll take you high on the wings of my love
When you're feeling all alone
Like a child who's got no home
You know you've always got a place where you can go
Just climb on the wings of my love

Like a beach that knows no boundaries with all the trees
As it rushes to the seas darling we'll be just as free
I'll lift your spirits high our love will fly
We'll have heaven blue skies and forever sunshine

'Til you break those ties that bind
'Til that day you're really mine
Anytime you want to leave your world behind
Just climb on the wings of my love

I'll lift your spirits high our love will fly
We'll have heaven blue skies and forever sunshine

We've got rainbows yet to find
And we'll find them all in time
Girl you know someday we'll even touch the sky
Just climb on the wings of my love

Anytime you want to leave your world behind
I'll take you high on the wings of my love
Just take my hand and together we'll touch the sky
Just climb on the wings of my love
Yes remember I will always be around
I'll take you high on the wings of my love

Love Is Here And Now You're Gone - Michael Jackson

Love is here
And oh my darling, now you're gone
Love is here
And oh my darling, now you're gone
You persuaded me to love you
And I did
But instead of tendeness
I found heartache instead
Into your arms I fell
So unaware of the lonelyness
Thar was waiting there
Spoken :
You closed the door to your heart, girl
And you turned the key
Locked your love away from me

Love is here
And oh my darling, now you're gone
You made me love you
And oh my darling, now you're gone
You said loving you
Would make life beautiful
With each passing day
But as soon as love came
Into my heart
You turned and you walked
Just walked away

[Spoken:]
You stripped me of my dreams
You gave me faith, then you took my hope
Look at me now

Look at me
See what loving has done to me
Look at my face
See how cryin' has left its trace
After you made me all your own
Then you left me all alone
You made your words sound so sweet
Knowing that your love I couldn't keep

[Spoken:]
My heart cries out for your tuch
But baby, you're not there
And the lonely cry fades in the air

Love is here
And oh my darling, now you're gone
Love is here
And oh my darling, now you're gone
You made me love you
Oh oh my darling, now you're gone
Talking 'bout love, love, love, love,
Ooh ooh my darling, now you're gone

You've Got A Friend - Michael Jackson

When you're down and trubled
And you need some love and care
And nothin', no nothin' is goin' right
Just close your eyes and think of me
And soon I'll be there to brighten up
Yeah, even your darkest night
You just call out my name
And you know, wherever I am
I'll come a-runnin'
To see you again
Chorus :
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there, yeah I will
You've got a friend

When the sky above you
Grows dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind
He begins to blow
Here's what you do baby
Keep your head together
And call my name out loud
And soon you'll hear me
Knockin' at your door
Oh yes I will, yes I will
You just call out my name
And you know, wherever I am
I'll come a-runnin'
To see you again

Chorus

Ain't it good to know
That you've got a friend
People can be so cold
They'll hurt you and desert you
And take your soul if you let them
Oh, don't let them

Chorus :
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there, yes I will

You've got a friend, yes you do
You've got a friend, yes you do
Right till the end, for you
Ain't it good to know

Ben - Michael Jackson

Ben, the two of us need look no more
We both found what we were looking for
With a friend to call my own
I'll never be alone
And you my friend will see
You've got a friend in me
(You've got a friend in me)

Ben, you're always running here and there
(Here and there)
You feel you're not wanted anywhere
(Anywhere)
If you ever look behind
And don't like what you find
There's something you should know
You've got a place to go
(You've got a place to go)

I used to say "I" and "me"
Now it's "us", now it's "we"
I used to say "I" and "me"
Now it's "us", now it's "we"

Ben, most people would turn you away
I don't listen to a word they say
They don't see you as I do
I wish they would try to
I'm sure they'd think again
If they had a friend like Ben
(A friend)
Like Ben
(Like Ben)
Like Ben

People...
('Round and 'round and around...)
People make the world go 'round
('Round and 'round and around...)

They want more money but the board won't pay
People
Everybody's talkin' 'bout ecology
The air's so polluted that it's hard to breathe
People

But that's what makes the world go round
The ups and downs a carousel
Changing people's heads around
Go underground young men...
People make the world go round...

Old folks judge you by the clothes you wear
They'd swear you're a hippy if you have long hair
Young politicians fight for poverty
While people still cry for equality

But that's what makes the world go round
The ups and downs a carousel
Changing people's heads around
Go underground young men...
People make the world go round...

(Instrumental)

Refrain
But that's what makes the world go round
The ups and downs a carousel
Changing people's heads around
Go underground young men...
People make the world go round...
