The New Kids In Town from Before Their Eyes


Is it me or is it hot in here?
I should have never brought the heat because it's getting severe
All you people in the back gotta get to the front
We're lightin' up the stage so get up, get up
We're not just here to fake it
We're gonna rock you and make ya shake it
I'm gonna tear it down, I'm gonna bring it around
We're the new kids in town so turn it up now

So let me know, let me know how long until you're ready to go
You've been waiting all your life and we've only got tonight (only got tonight)
So are you ready to go?
Ready to go, the clock's tickin' and we're late for the show
All you gotta do is show me some love
And we'll get down until the morning
Down until the morning comes

Saddle up, we're gonna do it right
We bring the party every day and every night
All you people in the front gotta show me some love
We're lightin' up the stage so get up, get up
We're not just here to fake it
We're gonna rock you and make ya shake it
I'm gonna tear it down, I'm gonna bring it around
We're the new kids in town so turn it up now

So let me know, let me know how long until you're ready to go
You've been waiting all your life and we've only got tonight (only got tonight)
So are you ready to go?
Ready to go, the clock's tickin' and we're late for the show
All you gotta do is show me some love
And we'll get down until the morning
Down until the morning comes

Down until the morning (comes)
Down until the morning (comes)
Down until the morning (comes)
(Comes)

We're not just here to fake it
We're gonna rock you and make ya shake it
Come on

We're not just here to fake it
We're not just here to fake it
We're gonna rock you and make ya shake it

So let me know, let me know how long until you're ready to go
You've been waiting all your life and we've only got tonight (only got tonight)
So are you ready to go?
Ready to go, the clock's tickin' and we're late for the show
All you gotta do is show me some love
And we'll get down until the morning
Down until the morning comes

The Me I Used To Be from Before Their Eyes


Our ship is being pummeled by the angry waves
And there is not an ounce of fear in your voice
These dark threatening clouds cover the sky, cover the sky tonight
And there is no man who could sleep through this

And there is no where
No where that I would rather be
Keep me close to you
You're all I need

What if I stand here?
What if I trust you?
Where is the me I used to know?
Can you help me find my way?
(Keep me close to you)

What if you reached out?
And I tried to touch you?
Would I be buried in the waves?
I'm taking a step into the water
(You're all I need)

I'll set all my fears aside
I'll focus my eyes
I'll focus my eyes to you

What if I stand here?
What if I trust you?
Where is the me I used to know?
Can you help me find my way?
(Keep me close to you)

What if you reached out?
And I tried to touch you?
Would I be buried in the waves?
I'm taking a step into the water

Everything I stood against now
Everything I can't live without
Where is the me I used to know
My God, I feel stranded in my lack of commitment

What if I stand here?
What if I trust you?
Where is the me I used to know?

What if you reached out?
And I tried to touch you?
To touch you

I'm taking a step into the water
(What if I stand here? What if I trust you?)
And praying for buoyancy
(Where is the me I used to know?)
Eye to eye and steps away from you
(What if you reached out? And I tried to touch you?)

I'm taking a step into the water

The Pretender by the Foo Fighters


Keep you in the dark
You know they all pretend
Keep you in the dark
And so it all began

Send in your skeletons
Sing as their bones go marching in...again
The need you buried deep
The secrets that you keep are ever ready
Are you ready?
I'm finished making sense
Done pleading ignorance
That whole defense

Spinning infinity, boy
The wheel is spinning me
It's never-ending, never-ending
Same old story

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

In time or so I'm told
I'm just another soul for sale... oh, well
The page is out of print
We are not permanent
We're temporary, temporary
Same old story

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

I'm the voice inside your head
You refuse to hear
I'm the face that you have to face
Mirrored in your stare
I'm what's left, I'm what's right
I'm the enemy
I'm the hand that will take you down
Bring you to your knees

So who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?

Keep you in the dark
You know they all pretend

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

What if I say I'm not like the others?
(Keep you in the dark)
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
(You know they all... pretend)
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

What if I say I'm not like the others?
(Keep you in the dark)
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
(You know they all... pretend)
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

So who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?

Let It Die by Foo Fighters


Heart of gold but it lost its pride
Beautiful veins and bloodshot eyes
I've seen your face in another light
Why'd you have to go and let it die?

Why'd you have to go and let it die?
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
In too deep and out of time.
Why'd you have to go and let it die?

A simple man and his blushing bride
(Why'd you have to go and let it die?)
Intravenous, intertwined
(Why'd you have to go and let it die?)

Hearts gone cold your hands were tied
(Why'd you have to go and let it die?)
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
(Why'd you have to go and let it die?)

Why'd you have to go and let it die?
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
In too deep and out of time.
Why'd you have to go and let it die?

Do you ever think of me?
You're so considerate.
Did you ever think of me?
Oh, so considerate.

In too deep and lost in time
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
Beautiful veins and bloodshot eyes
Why'd you have to go and let it die?

Hearts gone cold and hands are tied.
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
Why'd you have to go and let it die?

Do you ever think of me?
You're so considerate.
Did you ever think of me?
Oh, so considerate.

In too deep and lost in time
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
Beautiful veins and bloodshot eyes
Why'd you have to go and let it die?

Hearts gone cold and hands are tied.
Why'd you have to go and let it die?

Why'd you have to go and let this die?
Why'd you have to go and let this die?
Why'd you have to go and let this die?
Why'd you have to go and let this die?

Why'd you have to go and let it die?

 

[ginnygirl102]

I'm in the business of misery,
Let's take it from the top.
She's got a body like an hourglass it's ticking like a clock.
It's a matter of time before we all run out,
When I thought he was mine she caught him by the mouth.

I waited eight long months,
She finally set him free.
I told him I couldn't lie he was the only one for me.
Two weeks and we caught on fire,
She's got it out for me,
But I wear the biggest smile.

Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now.
Whoa, it was never my intention to brag
Just steal it all away from you now.
But God does it feel so good,
Cause I got him where I want him now.
And if you could then you know you would.
Cause God it just feels so,
It just feels so good.

Second chances they don't ever matter, people never change.
Once a ***** you're nothing more, I'm sorry, that'll never change.
And about forgiveness, we're both supposed to have exchanged.
I'm sorry honey, but I'm passin' up, now look this way.
Well there's a million other girls who do it just like you.
Looking as innocent as possible to get to who,
They want and what they like it's easy if you do it right.
Well I refuse, I refuse, I refuse!

Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now.
Whoa, it was never my intention to brag
Just steal it all away from you now.
But God does it feel so good,
Cause I got him where I want him right now.
And if you could then you know you would.
Cause God it just feels so,
It just feels so good.

I watched his wildest dreams come true
Not one of them involving you
Just watch my wildest dreams come true
Not one of them involving.

Whoa, I never meant to brag,
But I got him where I want him now.

Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now.
Whoa, it was never my intention to brag
Just steal it all away from you now.
But God does it feel so good,
Cause I got what I wanted now
And if you could then you know you would.
Cause God it just feels so,
It just feels so good.

Crazy Days- Adam Gregory

baby lets take a drive
top down underneath the Carolina sky
we can watch the fireflies try to outshine the stars
I wanna lay a blanket down
find a way back to where our love was found
baby lets go right now

Chorus:
back to our hearts beating wild
in the back of my beat up truck
back to those butterflies
first time we felt in love
back to your smiling eyes
come on baby take my hand
lets find a way back to our crazy days

don’t worry about what to wear
those faded cut off jeans are my favorite pair
don’t go messin with your hair
let it all blow around
move over in the middle by me
just like you did when your daddy couldn’t see
why his little girl loved a boy like me

Chorus:
back to our hearts beating wild
in the back of my beat up truck
back to those butterflies
first time we felt in love
back to your smiling eyes
come on baby take my hand
lets find a way back to our crazy days

Bridge:
you remember cuttin' class
heading to the creek
doin 95 down a two lane streets
staying up all night talkin about forever you and me
I can see that look in your eyes
and if I know you, they don’t lie
they're telling me you're think about going back
about getting back

Chorus:
back to our hearts beating wild
in the back of my beat up truck
back to those butterflies
first time we felt in love
back to your smiling eyes
come on baby take my hand
lets find a way back to our crazy days

The Accountable from Oceana


The truth is found
Six feet underground
Or laying at the bottom of the sea

After all who thought it would come to this?
Come down to this?
After all (after all) who thought it would come to this?
Come down to this?

Yet misguided truths are right here, within these walls
And to speak of them is a sin
Against the ones you swear to the most

So everyone knows the truth, so everyone knows the truth
So everyone knows the truth, so everyone knows the truth

To purge ones self
In such a misleading way is just a shame

(Misleading)
To purge ones self in such a misleading way, a mile away
So sit and wait, and lose all we've ever hoped
So sit and wait, and lose all we've ever hoped
So sit and wait, and lose all we've ever hoped
Hoped, hoped

As pages turn and days go by, you only wither away
You only wither to the tales of time
You only wither to the tales of time
You only wither to the tales of time

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

Mindless: Mindless from Oceana


I'm staring at the cracks
And all the lines you wrote to get me home
It's not over yet
It's not over yet

I'll speak the same
Until it breaks my jaw (breaks my jaw)
It breaks my heart to see you this way
Come on

So I'll pray for the day (pray for the day)
That new things will come
To wash these ones away

So I'll pray for the day (I'll pray for the day)
That new things will come
To wash these ones away

It's not over yet
It's not over yet
It's not over yet
It's not over at all

I'm staring at the cracks
And all the lines you wrote to get me home
I'm staring at the cracks
And all the lines you wrote to get me home
(The lines you wrote)

I'm staring at the cracks
And all the lines you wrote to get me
(The lines you wrote)

So I'll pray for the day (pray for the day)
That new things will come
To wash these ones away

So I'll pray for the day (I'll pray for the day)
That new things will come
To wash these ones away

There's something attractive
In a lack of direction
And oh, you look so lost
And oh, you look so lost

There's something attractive
In a lack of direction
And oh, you look so lost
And oh, you look so lost

The Portrait from Oceana


Oh, the humanity
Oh, the purgery
Tell me how it feels to not know
That your children are safe at night

Dear Father
(Dear Father)
Dear Mother
(Dear Mother)

I'm leaving you, goodbye

Does it feel familiar to you?
Does it make you cold inside?

Does it feel familiar to you?
Does it make you cold inside?

It's safe to say your life's a disgrace
This is the hope fleeing the scene
Build your bombs and I'll build my dreams
(Build my dreams)

The youth is the future or so they say
But what will happen if the future is flawed
From the youth looking back?

Is this the land of the free or a franchise of super stars?
Live for a better life not for dead dinosaurs, oh
Oh, the humanity
Oh, the suicides

The Tide by Oceana


And his face shown like the sun
Rejoice, rejoice
The tide has come

Tide has come to take us all
Tide has come to take us
Tide has come to take us all
Tide has come to take us

Take us away to a better place
Take us away to a better place
Take us away to a better place
Take us away to a better place

When the skin bound to your limbs
Traces back to home (home)
The sand pulls you back in working through your skull
The sand pulls you back in working through your skull

Tide has come to take us all
Tide has come to take us
Tide has come to take us all
Tide has come to take us

And I will pray and climb
To the highest of highs
To get back to the ground again
And oh god to be home again

With back drop hills and florescent lit skies
Burning images into the backs of your eyes
Into the backs of your eyes, into the backs of your...

We're all singled by our desires
That love can fix but life builds walls
We're all singled by our desires
That love can fix but life builds walls

Hello, Astronaut from Oceana


It's hard to breathe when you're choking yourself
It's hard to see through eyes misleading
Though I swear I've been here before

So please, oh please pick up your feet
I can't carry you anymore, anymore

In world of disbelief these words are guidance
In world of disbelief these words are guidance
That one should follow

So please, oh please pick up your feet
I can't carry you (I can't carry you)
So please, oh please pick up your feet
I can't carry you (I can't carry you)

So say your prayers for the last time
You're a victim of your own lies
You're a failure, you're wrong
We lay our hearts into a pool of filth
We are lead by false pretenses

In a world of disbelief these words are guidance
In a world of disbelief these words are guidance
That one should follow

Conductor from Oceana


This is the beginning of the end
And I know it's not you it's me
Through broken teeth (through broken teeth)
Steps traced to me (steps traced to me)

I will take your hand to show you the way
Believe in me it's all I have to give to you
So let me in, let me in
Let me in these walls

Guess what!
I'm wrapping it, I'm wrapping it around your neck
You won't feel a thing

Guess what!
I'm wrapping it, wrapping it around your neck
You won't feel a thing

I'll sew your mouth shut and then you'll shut up
Oh I can see it in your eyes
A dream that never came true
Oh I can see it in your eyes

I'll sew your mouth shut then you'll shut up
Shut up
(I'll sew your mouth shut then you'll shut up)
Shut up
(I'll sew your mouth shut then you'll shut up)
Shut up

Your suffering ends tonight
I've heard this once before
I've heard this once before
Be still

Just say your prayers (just say your prayers)
One last time tonight
And I'll sew your mouth shut then you'll shut up
Shut up, shut up

Through broken teeth
Steps traced to me
And I will take your hand to show you the way
Believe in me it's all I have to give to you, to give to you

We Are The Messengers by Oceana


Oh, dear god
We are lost
We need your guidance now

In this moment of truth
You're our voice
We are the messengers

And in this moment of truth
You're words fall on deaf ears
We will not stand for this
You are finished here
We are trials of truth

I fall asleep at the wheel
As I'm making my way to the surface again
This road splits in two
One path to a place I've always known
The other is leading me to uncertainty

But I will find that in this life
There is only so much I can do for you
And I'll do what I can
To be the man you hoped that I would be

We are the messengers
And in this moment of truth
You're words fall on deaf ears
We will not stand for this
We are done with this

I'll do what I can to be the man you hoped I'd be
I'll do what I can to be the man you hoped I'd be
We're on our way, way
We're on our way to being free

Escape The Flood from Oceana


Scared, shaking my teeth loose
These walls are closing in on me, come on
Dropped jaws as they watch us sinking
Into the sand where they know they should be (know they should be)
Should be

What could be said?
We've been here too many times
And this is what I am but I'm still trying
To change my past
I've let so many down in my life
So many hearts left astray

You bleed for me, but I'd die for you
We're all wrong, come on
This is what I am but I'm still living with your ghost
I only wish you the best

Scared, shaking my teeth loose
These walls are closing in on me
Dropped jaws as they watch us sinking into the sand
Where they know they should be

Is this what you had hoped for?
We'll I'm sorry to say
That I want you to live free
Go and be with him

And I am no hero and
You are not a victim of betrayal
Can you see them now watching you fail at everything?
Well I'm sorry to say this is goodbye

I only hope for the best
(Dropped jaws as they watch us sinking)
Just look to the past, just look
The past is paved with broken promises
(Into the sand where they know they should be)
Just look to the past, just say goodbye
Say goodbye

(Dropped jaws as they watch us sinking)

Antlophobia from Oceana


Break your ties to a life of hypocrisy
You've let down everyone who has cared
If wasting every second of your life is what you think
Can save you then let that be that

Reaching into the back of my mind
Searching for a moment, to say like heaven
No one ever cared for you
You lead the world to believe you are a fake
(You are a fake)

The choir is singing, the choir is singing
You are a fake, you are a fake
(You are a fake)

The choir is singing, the choir is singing
You are a fake, you are a fake
(You are a fake)

The choir is singing, the choir is singing
You are a fake, you are a fake
(You are a fake)

The choir is singing, the choir is singing
You are a fake

Reach For The Sky from Oceana


From the look on your face
And the chains about your neck
I'm willing to bet
That you're a prized possession

Just give it up
Just give it your all
Just give it all

Just give it up
Just give it your all
Just give it all

This is not the way you were meant to be
This is not a moment of clarity

This is not the way you were meant to be
This is not a moment of clarity

My heart is willing to change your mind
Your words are taking over mine
Your words are taking over mine
They're taking over every feeling I have
It's all for you

Give me your hand now
This is exactly what it means to promise
I'll teach you to breathe

Raise your hands to the sky, if you feel alive
Raise your hands to the sky (to the sky)
If you feel alive

(Raise your hands to the sky, if you feel alive)
(Raise your hands to the sky, if you feel alive)
(Raise your hands to the sky, if you feel alive)

(Raise your hands to the sky, if you feel alive)
(Raise your hands to the sky, if you feel alive)
(Raise your hands to the sky, if you feel alive)

Raise your hands to the sky, if you feel alive
Raise your hands to the sky, if you feel alive

My Knife, Your Throat from Scary Kids Scaring Kids (demo...version that's 8:24)


And the pictures frames are facing down,
I'm running from the truth,
Distorted images of you,
And you insist that you were right,
When the facts show you were wrong,
I'm holding my ground, not looking down.

You don't know what I have been through now, this time.
And I wish you would keep your mouth shut, yeah, this time.

And the shadows crowd these careless thoughts,
For you I can't describe and you're always on my mind.
And I'll pretend I'm content now,
But I'm miserable this life,
Now the end is on it's way.

You don't know what I have been through now, this time.
And I wish you would keep your mouth shut, yeah, this time.

It's a lie!
I can't take no more.
You can die for all I care.
(You can die for all I care)
Lies don't tell the truth.
Another selfish lie.
Another lie.

So you tell me I was wrong,
Well I'm going to slit your throat.
You're dead, you're a bloody mess.
You think that this is a joke?
Well my knife is in your throat.
You're dead, you're a bloody mess.
Yeah.
Now you're dead.
You're dead.
Now you're dead.

You just lie. (Lies)
Always lying to me, (Lies)
And now I realise everything you say, is a lie. (Lies, lies, lies, lies.)
Well I don't care what you have to say about me (Lies)
You'll die. (Lies)
Take it to your grave your slutty *****. (Lies, lies.)
I swear to god, (Lies)
Come a little closer, I'll show you what it's like. (Lies)
Show you exactly what it's like. (Lies, lies)
Exactly what it's like. (Lies, No!)

Intro by Eyes Set To Kill (When Silence Is Broken The Night Is Torn, not Intro from the album Reach)


Choking on your fear, you no longer see so clearly.

Choking on your fear, you no longer see so clearly.
(This love that never lasts, love that fools so easily, is anger deep inside, it's anger deep inside of me.)

Choking on your fear, you no longer see so clearly.
(It's empty words that ring, these empty words don't mean a thing. This love that leaves so fast is love that comes so easily.)

This love that leaves so fast (so fast) is love that fools so easily
This love that leaves so fast (so fast) is love that comes so easily
This love that leaves so fast (so fast) is love that fools so easily
This love that leaves so fast (so fast) is love that comes so easily

This Love You Breathe by Eyes Set To Kill


Blackout memories of you
I'll take
Slowly I shall take
I will
I'll slice you open
Take back my love

Revenge is running through my body
(This love you breathe)
So fast racing against my heartbeat
(This love you breathe)
Escaping letting my tensions free
(This love you breathe)
Scent of your blood, smells so sweet
(This love you, this love you breathe)

Your lungs will swell till you choking on your fear
Your lungs they'll swell till your choking (you're choking)
Your lungs will swell till you choking on your fear
Your lungs they'll swell till your choking

Trade me, my love for this heart I prey upon
Trade me, my love for this heart I prey upon

Revenge
Blackout, the memories of you
I'll take all life from you
I'll slice you open so you feel the pain from you
I'll slice you open and steal back my love from you
Steal back my love from you
Steal back my love

This love you breathe
This love you breathe
This love you breathe
This love, this love you breathe

This love you breathe
This love you breathe
This love you breathe
This love, this love you breathe

Angel- Sarah Mclachlan

Spend all your time waiting
For that second chance
For a break that would make it okay
There's always one reason
To feel not good enough
And it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
Oh beautiful release
Memory seeps from my veins
Let me be empty
And weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight

In the arms of an angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort there

So tired of the straight line
And everywhere you turn
There's vultures and thieves at your back
And the storm keeps on twisting
You keep on building the lie
That you make up for all that you lack
It don't make no difference
Escaping one last time
It's easier to believe in this sweet madness oh
This glorious sadness that brings me to my knees

In the arms of an angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort there
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
