Hang 'Em High from My Chemical Romance


Wait until it fades to black
Ride into the sunset
Would I lie to you?
Well, I've got something to say
Grab your six-gun from your back
Throttle the ignition
Would I die for you?
Well here's your answer in spades

Shotgun sinners
Wild eyed jokers
Got you in my sights
Gun it while I'm holding on

After all is said and done
Climb out from the pine box
Well I'm asking you
'Cause she's got nothing to say
The angels just cut out her tongue
Call her black Mariah
Would I lie to you?
That girl's not right in the brain

Mass convulsions
Strike the choir
By the grace of God
Gun it while I'm holding on

But don't stop if I fall
And don't look back
Oh baby don't stop
Bury me and fade to black

She won't stop me put it down
She won't stop me put it down
She won't stop me put it down
So get your gun and meet me by the door

She won't stop me put it down
She won't stop me put it down
She won't stop me put it down
So get your gun and meet me by the door

She won't stop me put it down
She won't stop me put it down
She won't stop me put it down
So get your gun and meet me by the door

She won't stop me put it down
She won't stop me put it down
She won't stop me put it down
So baby..

Don't stop if I fall
And don't look back
Oh baby don't stop
Bury me and fade to black

Don't stop if I fall
And don't look back
Oh baby don't stop
Bury me and fade to black

Thank You For The Venom from My Chemical Romance


Sister, I'm not much a poet, but a criminal
And you never had a chance
Love it, or leave it, you can't understand
A pretty face, but you do so carry on,
and on,
and on

I wouldn't front the scene if you paid me
I'm just the way that the doctor made me, on,
and on,
and on,
and on
Love is the red of the rose on your coffin door
What's life like, bleeding on the floor,
the floor,
the floor

You'll never make me leave
I wear this on my sleeve
Give me a reason to believe

So give me all you poison
And give me all your pills
And give me all your hopeless hearts
And make me ill
You're running after something
That you'll never kill
If this is what you want
Then fire at will

Preach all you want but who's gonna save me?
I keep a gun on the book you gave me, hallelujah, lock and load
Black is the kiss, the touch of the serpeant son
It ain't the mark or the scar that makes you run,
and run,
and run,
and run

You'll never make me leave
I wear this on my sleeve
Give me a reason to believe

So give me all your poison
And give me all your pills
And give me all your hopeless hearts
And make me ill
You're running after something
That you'll never kill
If this is what you want
Then fire at will

You'll never make me leave
I wear this on my sleeve
You wanna follow something
Give me a better cause to lead
Just give me what I need
Give me a reason to believe

So give me all you poison
And give me all your pills
And give me all your hopeless hearts
And make me ill
You're running after something
That you'll never kill
If this is what you want
Then fire at will

So give me all your poison
And give me all your pills
(Fire at will)
And give me all your hopeless hearts
And make me ill
(Fire at will)
You're running after something
That you'll never kill
(Fire at will)
If this is what you want
Then fire at will
(Fire at will)

LoL
You Got It (The Right Stuff) by New Kids on the Block
(I'm seeing them the day before Thanksgiving, so I'm just getting ready, haha)

The right stuff
The right stuff
First time was a great time
Second time was a blast
Third time I fell in love
Now I hope it lasts
I can see it in your walk
Tell ’em when you talk
See it in everything you do
Even in your thoughts

You got the right stuff, baby
Love the way you turn me on
You got the right stuff, baby
You’re the reason why I sing this song
All that I needed was you
Oh girl, you’re so right
Said all that I wanted was you
You made all my dreams come true

Chorus:
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
The right stuff
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
The right stuff

Your first kiss was a sweet kiss
Second kiss had a twist
Third and your fourth kiss
I don’t want to miss
I can see it in your walk
Tell ’em when you talk
See it in everything you do
Even in your thoughts

You got the right stuff, baby
Love the way you turn me on
You got the right stuff, baby
You’re the reason why I sing this song
All that I needed was you
Oh girl, you’re so right
Said all that I wanted was you
You made all.... every one of my dreams come true

Repeat chorus

The right stuff, girl, yeah baby, yeah
You know you got the right stuff
And girl, yeah, baby
You know, you know you got it, girl

In my life, you’re so right
You made all.... you know what you did

Repeat chorus and fade

Dear God - Avenged Sevenfold

A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
Miles away from those I love purpose hard to find
While I recall all the words you spoke to me
Can't help but wish that I was there
Back where I'd love to be, oh yeah

Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
To hold her when I'm not around
When I'm much too far away
We all need that person who can be true to you
But I left her when I found her
And now I wish I'd stayed
Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
I'm missing you again oh no
Once again

There's nothing here for me on this barren road
There's no one here while the city sleeps
And all the shops are closed
Can't help but think of the times I've had with you
Pictures and some memories will have to help me through, oh yeah

Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
To hold her when I'm not around
When I'm much too far away
We all need that person who can be true to you
I left her when I found her
And now I wish I'd stayed
Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
I'm missing you again oh no
Once again

Some search, never finding a way
Before long, they waste away
I found you, something told me to stay
I gave in, to selfish ways
And how I miss someone to hold
When hope begins to fade

A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
Miles away from those I love purpose hard to find

Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
To hold her when I'm not around
When I'm much too far away
We all need the person who can be true to you
I left her when I found her
And now I wish I'd stayed
Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
I'm missing you again oh no
Once again

"Sugar High" by Coyote Shivers (from one of the greatest movies ever, Empire Records)

they all said life's just a bowl of cherries, but
sometimes it seems like anything but
think again
sometimes reputations outlive their applications
sometimes fires don't go out
when you're done playing with them
I feel so funny deep inside
I wanna kiss myself goodbye

sugarhigh..
gotta have it really need it to get by
sugarhigh..
wanna feel it can't conceal it
sugarhigh

I could go out and not even leave the house
a TV set and a bottle of wine, just fine
crashing out on that old pull out couch
watching saturday night live
I guess that's why
when I think about my life
I wanna kiss myself goodbye

sugarhigh..
sugarhigh

alright, [guitar solo]

I... far and wide
I've explored the deepest caverns of my mind
to try and find an explanation why
I get this funny feeling deep inside
when I think about my life
I wanna kiss myself goodbye

sugarhigh..
gotta have it really need it to get by
sugarhigh..
I wanna feel it can't conceal it makes me high
sugarhigh..
need it now I've got to live until I die
sugarhigh..
can you feel it, can you feel it
sugarhigh

One of the prettiest songs ever.

"These Wings Are Useless" by Mindy White

is it impossible?
is it held away or have you lost the lock for it?
this isn't the way my careful thoughtout plans were set.
i guess i'm running out of charm.


and are you sure
that nothing in your head is craving something more for us?
have you somewhere close my foolish head can rest?
i think i'll sleep to pass the time.



but if i could get in your head 

maybe you could understand that
"better off alone" is just a phrase. 

i'll write down my reasoning if you could believe in it.




silly me.
but something in your smile held so patiently.
i was sure it wasn't like the ones before.
i guess i saw this from the start.


now it's endless.
i'm heavy on pretending it's ok that you
don't want to take a chance and fly away from it,
so i'll tape my wings back to my side.





but if i could get in your head 

maybe you could understand that
"better off alone" is just a phrase. 

i'll write down my reasoning if you would believe in it. 

i've grown so tired waiting on this shade to take me home.




what is it that's pulling me?
i know it's not your hands or arms, you see,
they're wrapped around your mouth holding your tongue.
love works in a silly way.
you know you've done enough of chasing it away,
it's no wonder that the quiet is your favorite sound.

one of the best bands ever. Jason Schwartzman's band

It's Not You It's Me by Coconut Records

It’s been a while
How you’ve come back in style
Singing hey nonny na na na na

Back on the block
Really nothing but talk
Singing hey nonny na na na na
C’mon hey nonny na na na na
C’mon hey nonny na na na na

One two three
Tell her that I just can’t go on
Tell her that there’s just something wrong
Tell her that I just can’t go on
Uh huh

Tell her that I just can’t go on
Tell her that there’s just something wrong
Tell her that I just can’t go on
Uh huh

Back by demand
Do whatever you can
You look older I can tell by your hands
Drinks only gin, says it's how to keep thin
And she’s crying after every meal
Lord you don’t know how you’re making me feel

Rrraah
Tell her that I just can’t go on
Tell her that there’s just something wrong
Tell her that I just can’t go on
Uh huh

Tell her that I just can’t go on
Tell her that there’s just something wrong
Tell her that I just can’t go on
Uh huh
Oh no


Six records in
Don’t know where to begin
Singing nonny na na na na
Tell her that I just can’t go on

You’ll follow through it’s the best you can do
Singing hey nonny na na na na
Tell her that I just can’t go on
C’mon hey nonny na na na na

Tell her that I just can’t go on

Reach from Eyes Set To Kill


Hush don't speak a word about the dreams that I live for
It hurts to reach you when I'm down
Don't speak again, I'm still waiting for my turn
It hurts to reach you when I'm down

My dreams are growing into
Frustrations when I hear your voice
(Feeding me 'til I'm choking, feeding me 'til I'm choking)
My ears are ringing louder
Repeating words that bring me down
(Ringing, my ears are bleeding, ringing, my ears are bleeding)

So hold your breath and spare me
The pointless conversation, I'm running out of patience
Don't blame me for trying to reach

Hush don't speak a word about the dreams that I live for
It hurts to reach you when I'm down
Don't speak again, I'm still waiting for my turn
It hurts to reach you when I'm down

As you are moving forward
I feel as if I can't catch up
(Trying so hard to reach you, trying so hard to reach you)
I'm stuck here at the bottom
You're too high up to come back down
(Trying so hard to reach you, trying so hard to reach you)

So hold your breath and spare me
The pointless conversation, I'm running out of patience
Don't blame me for trying to reach

Hush don't speak a word about the dreams that I live for
It hurts to reach you when I'm down
Don't speak again, I'm still waiting for my turn
It hurts to reach you when I'm down

Silence your harsh words my dear
My ears are ringing of this
I can't stop thinking of it
(I try to reach you but I fall)

Silence your harsh words my dear
(I try to reach you but I fall)
My ears are ringing of this
I can't stop thinking of it
(I try to reach you but I fall)

Silence your harsh words my dear
(I try to reach you but I fall)
My ears are ringing of this
I can't stop thinking of it
(I try to reach you but I fall)

Silence your harsh words my dear
(I try to reach you but I fall)
My ears are ringing of this
I can't stop thinking of it

Hush don't speak a word about the dreams that I live for
It hurts to reach you when I'm down
Don't speak again, I'm still waiting for my turn
It hurts to reach you when I'm down

Only Holding On from Eyes Set to Kill


We're only holding on
Is this what you want?
Is this what you want?
Dreams are falling apart as we're only holding on
Ambition gets old
When our hearts lie to us
Dreams are falling apart as we're only holding...

We gave our everything
We gave our everything
We gave our everything
All for unwanted dreams?
We gave our everything

Lights dim down
We're the stars tonight
Their voices bring
Slight wind to the sky
Their voices sing along
Feel their souls lift with ours as they share the night
But you sing a different song
You sing a different song

We're only holding on
Is this what you want?
Is this what you want?
Dreams are falling apart as we're only holding on
To a broken piece
We try to fit as one
Dreams are falling apart as we're only holding...

We gave our everything
We gave our everything
We gave our everything
All for unwanted dreams?
We gave our everything

Lights dim down
We're the stars tonight
Their voices bring
Slight wind to the sky
Their voices sing along
Feel their souls lift with ours as they share the night
But you sing a different song
You sing a different song

Can't you see my grip is weakening?
Erasing every line
And taking down the frames
I'd look back but I'm too far away
A ghost to the faces I miss

Can't you see my grip is weakening?
Erasing every line
And taking down the frames
I'd turn back but I'm too far away
A ghost to the faces I miss
A ghost to the faces I miss

Lights dim down
We're the stars tonight
Their voices bring
Slight wind to the sky
Their voices sing along
Feel their souls lift with ours as they share the night
But you sing a different song
You sing a different

Have a little faith
I'll come back home
Don't forget my name
When I'm alone
A ghost to the faces I miss
I'm a ghost to the faces I miss

Give You My All from Eyes Set To Kill


Glass hailed from the sky tonight
I couldn't hide to save my life.
Standing drenched in open wounds.
You took my hand, and pulled me through.

I want to give you everything
I'll give you my all because you gave me
You gave me your lips
a gentle kiss
the medicine to cure my pain

Listen to all this glass shatter.
Once pierced my ears and made them bleed.
Now sounds so beautiful
Cause you're beautiful.
You're beautiful.

I want to give you everything
I'll give you my all because you gave me
You gave me your lips
a gentle kiss
the medicine to cure my pain

I want to give you everything
I'll give you my all because you gave me
You gave me your lips
a gentle kiss
the medicine to cure my pain

 

[DancinDisney221]

feel like I'm gonna go insane,
Cuz I keep hearing your voice call my name,
In an empty room, girl, you're the one I see,
Let me tell you girl, we’re history,

I'm a one man show,
I don't need no one,
I'll be fine alone,
Oh yeah,
You can call me but,
I won't pick up my phone,
Cause I’m a one man show,
Oh yeah,
I don't need you, girl.

Girl you broke my heart and let me down
I’d be better off if you weren’t ‘round
Took my love and threw it on the ground
Sayin goodbye, girl don’t make a sound

I'm a one man show,
I don't need no one,
I'll be fine alone,
Oh yeah,
You can call me but,
I won't pick up my phone,
Cause I’m a one man show,
Oh yeah,
I don't need you, girl.

I was so blind
Now I finally see
Everything you did to me
I thought it might change
I could find place
We’d be happy too

I'm a one man show,
I don't need no one,
I'll be fine alone,
Oh yeah,
You can call me but,
I won't pick up my phone,
Cause I’m a one man show,
Oh yeah,
Yeah

I'm a one man show,
I don't need no one,
I'll be fine alone,
Oh yeah,
You can call me but,
I won't pick up my phone,
Cause I’m a one man show,
Oh yeah,
I don't need you, girl.
Yeah!

 

[K-Shong99]

I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend,
You could cut ties with all the lies, that you've been living in,
And if you do not want to see me again, I would understand.
I would understand.

The angry boy,
a bit too insane,
Icing over a secret pain,
You know you don't belong,
You're the first to fight,
You're way too loud,
You're The flash of light,
on a burial shroud,
I know something's wrong,
Well everyone I know has got a reason,
to say,
put the past away,
I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend,
You could cut ties with all the lies,
That you've been living in,
And if you do not want to see me again,
I would understand,
I would understand.
And well he's on the table,
and he's gone to code,
And I do not think anyone knows,
What they are doing here,
And your friends have left you,
You've been dismissed.
I never thought it would come to this,
and I, I want you to know,
Everyone's got to face down the demons,
Maybe today,
We can put the past away,

I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend.
You could cut ties with all the lies,
that you've been living in,
And if you do not want to see me again,
I would understand,
I would understand,
I would understand...

(I would understand)
(I would understand)
(Understand)

Ya ya ya ya ya...

Can you put the past away?
I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend,
I would understand
(I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend,)
I would understand
(I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend,)
And I would understand
(I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend,)
I would understand
(I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend,)
And I would understand...

[AmandaSparks730]

Told you I made dinner plans
For you and me and no one else
That don't include your crazy friends
Well I'm done
With awkward situation's empty conversations

Oh This is an S.O.S.
Don't wanna second guess,
This is the bottom line
It's true
I gave my all for you,
now my heart's in two
And I can't find the other half
It's like I'm walking on broken glass,
better believe I bled
It's a call I'll never get

So this is where the story ends
A conversation on IM
Well I'm done
with texting,
Sorry for the miscommunication

Oh This is an S.O.S.
Don't wanna second guess,
This is the bottom line
It's true
I gave my all for you,
now my heart's in two
And I can't find the other half
It's like I'm walking on broken glass,
better believe I bled
It's a call I'll never get

Next time I see you
I'm giving you a high five
'cause hugs are over rated, just FYI

Oh This is an S.O.S.
Don't wanna second guess,
This is the bottom line
It's true
I gave my all for you,
now my heart's in two
(yeah)

Oh This is an S.O.S.
Don't wanna second guess,
This is the bottom line
It's true
I gave my all for you,
now my heart's in two
And I can't find the other half
It's like I'm walking on broken glass,
better believe I bled
It's a call I'll never get

 

[K-Shong99]

Here is the money that I owe you
Yes you can pay the bills
I will give you more
When I get paid again

I hate those people who love to tell you
Money is the root of all that kills
They have never been poor
They have never had the joy of a welfare christmas

I know we will never look back

You say you wake up crying
Yes and you don’t know why
You get up and you go lay down
Inside my baby’s room

Yeah, I guess I’m doing ok
I moved in with the strangest guy
Can you believe he actually thinks
That I am really alive

I will buy you a garden
Where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new car
Perfect shiny and new
I will buy you that big house
Way up in the west hills
I will buy you a new life
Yes I will

Yes, I know all about that other guy
The handsome man with athletic thighs
I know about all the time before
With that obsessive little rich boy

They might make you think you’re happy
Yeah maybe for a minute or two
They can’t make you laugh
No they can’t make you feel the way that I do

I will buy you a garden
Where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new car
Perfect shiny and new
I will buy you that big house
Way up in the west hills
I will buy you a new life
I will buy you a new life

I know we can never look back

Will you please let me stay the night
Will you please let me stay the night
No one will ever know

I will buy you a garden
Where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new car
Perfect shiny and new
I will buy you that big house
Way up in the west hills
I will buy you a new life

I will buy you a garden
Where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new car
Perfect shiny and new
I will buy you that big house
Way up in the west hills
I will buy you a new life

I will buy you a new life
I will buy you a new life
(repeats last two lines until it fades out)




[i will buy you a new life- everclear.]

Everybody wants to live happily ever after.
Everybody wants to know their true love is true...
How do you know he loves you?
How does she know that you love her?
How do you show her you need her?
How do you know he's yours?
How does she know that you really, really, truly---
Well does he take you out dancin' just so he can hold you close?
Dedicate a song with words in just for you?
Ohhh!
He'll find his own way to tell you with the little things he'll do.
That's how you know that's how you know!
He's your love he's your love...
That's how you know
(la la la la la la la la)
He loves you
(la la la la la la la la)
That's how you know
(la la la la la la la la)
It's true
(la la la la la)

 

[K-Shong99]

If you could only see the way she loves me
Then maybe you would understand
Why I feel this way about our love
And what I must do
If you could only see how blue her eyes can be when she says
When she says she loves me

Well you got your reasons
And you got your lies
And you got your manipulations
They cut me down to size

Sayin' you love but you don't
You give your love but you won't

If you could only see the way she loves me
Then maybe you would understand
Why I feel this way about our love
And what I must do
If you could only see how blue her eyes can be when she says
When she says she loves me

Seems the road less traveled
Show's happiness unraveled
And you got to take a little dirt
To keep what you love
That's what you gotta do

Sayin' you love but you don't
You give your love but you won't
You're stretching out your arms to something that's just not there
sayin you love where you stand
Give you heart when you can


If you could only see the way she loves me
Then maybe you would understand
Why I feel this way about our love
And what I must do
If you could only see how blue her eyes can be when she says
When she says she loves me

Sayin' you love but you don't
You give your love but you won't
Sayin' you love where you stand
Give your heart when you can

If you could only see the way she loves me
Then maybe you would understand
Why I feel this way about our love
And what I must do
If you could only see how blue her eyes can be when she says
When she says she loves me

Twinkle twinkle little star.
How I wonder what you are.
Up above the sky so high.

(wow...i don't even know that whole song....)

 

[K-Shong99]

The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful
Stop me and steal my breath
And emeralds from mountains thrust towards the sky
Never revealing their depth

And tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of love
I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above

And I'll be your cryin' shoulder
I'll be love`s suicide
And I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your life

And rain falls angry on the tin roof
As we lie awake in my bed
And you're my survival, you're my living proof
My love is alive, and not dead

And tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of love.
I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above

And I'll be your cryin' shoulder
I`ll be love`s suicide
And I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your life.

And I dropped out, I burned up, I fought my way back from the dead,
I tuned in, I turned on, remembered the thing that you said.

And I'll be your cryin' shoulder
I'll be love`s suicide
And I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your life




The greatest fan of your life.

Only One - Lifehouse

She's got a pretty smile
It covers up the poison that she hides
She walks around in circles in my head
Waiting for a chance to break me chance to take me down
Now I see the burden you gave me
Is too much to carry too much to bury inside

I guess you're the only one that nobody changes
I guess you're the only one left standing
When everything else goes down
You're still the only one
Yeah you're still the only one

It's all shallow and all so appealing now
I'm up to my ankles and I'm drowning anyway
In a sea of sarcastic faces familiar places
Everything looks quite the same here
It's all confusingly amusing
Bitter and tainted the picture you painted to me

I guess you're the only one that nobody changes
I guess you're the only one left standing
When everything else goes down
You're still the only one who will never change faces
I guess you're the only one left standing
When everything else goes down

Just 'cause it's all in your head
Doesn't mean it has to be in mine
Don't believe what you said
Still can't get it out of my mind

I've tried to find myself in approval
I've already been there already done that
It got me nowhere it brought me nothing
But a good place to hide in no one to confide in now

I guess you're the only one that nobody changes
I guess you're the only one that will never change faces
I guess you're the only one
