Sound Of The Sun

You've cast these scars across my face.
You can't bring me down.
You think I'll never be the same.

Go!

And I don't know whats wrong with me,
I wanted to be all the things you need
All the things you need,
And now I'm standing here alone
I'm waiting for it all to come and go,
All to come and go

Maybe I just had to let it go

Make it up, make it up when you're not around
Bring it up, bring it up did you hear the sound of the sun
Rising from the grounds

Make it up, make it up when you're not around
Bring it up, bring it up do you always wanna be the one
Running from yourself

You!

And nothing's ever as it seems
When all your dreams exist in memories
Exists in memories

And all the trauma takes it's toll
I don't remember all the common goals,
All the common goals

Maybe you just have to let me know

Make it up, make it up when you're not around
Bring it up, bring it up did you hear the sound of the sun
Rising from the grounds

Make it up, make it up when you're not around
Bring it up, bring it up do you always wanna be the one
Running from yourself

You've cast these scars across my face
You can't bring me down
Your breath will never be the same

Go! Go! Go!

It's not you that I'm afriad of. But I'm not scared of myself. You'll lie with or without me. You'll never need my help

Maybe I just have to let it go
I have to let it go

Make it up, make it up when you're not around
Bring it up, bring it up did you hear the sound of the sun
Rising from the grounds

Make it up, make it up when you're not around
Bring it up, bring it up do you always wanna be the one
Running from yourself

Smashed Into Pieces

Never again!
I'll slit my throat!
With the knife I pulled
Out of my spine!

Maybe when
You find out
That I'm dead
You'll realize
What you did to me

And if my lungs still let me breathe
Would you be ther for me?
If I can make myself believe
I'd give you back what you took a...

No! I won't let it go!
Douse myself in gasoline
So don't

Save me when
You come into the fire
I'd rather die then have to see your smile

And if my lungs still let me breathe
Would you be there for me?
If I could make myself believe
I'd give you back what you took away

You made me swear
You made me swear

I...I can't sleep
Realize all these things that you took
From me

Smash my heart!
You made me swear
Into dust
You made me swear
Suffocate my mind
You made me swear
Tear away from inside
You made me swear

Smash apart what you creaTED!

How can,I ever
Stop you from
Crushing my soul?

It was it was yours
Yours to begin with

And if my lungs still let me breathe
Would you be there for me?
If I can make myself believe
I'd give you back what ou took away...

Suicide Solution

Wine is fine
But whiskey's quicker
Suicide is slow with liquor
Take a bottle drown your sorrows
Then it floods away tomorrows
away tomorrows!!

Evil thoughts and evil doings
Cold, alone you hang in ruins
Thought you'd escape the reaper
You can't escape the master keeper

'Cause you feel life's unreal and you're living a lie
Such a shame who's to blame and you're wondering why
Then you ask from your cask is there life after birth
What you sow can mean hell on this earth
HELL ON THIS EARTH!!

Now you live inside a bottle
The reaper's travelling at full throttle
It's catching you but you don't see
The reaper is you and the reaper is me

Breaking laws, knocking doors
But there's no one at home
Made your bed, rest your head
But you lie there and moan

Where to hide, suicide is the only way out
Don't you know what it's really about?

Wine is fine
But whiskey's quicker
Suicide is slow with liquor
Take a bottle drown your sorrows
Then it floods away tomorrows

Suicide Solution -- Ozzy Osbourne

The Weak & The Wounded

The end begins
I can’t escape
As it pulls me
Further into
anesthesia.
Tear down my sense
Of conviction
Corrupt my soul
The end begins.

(In my eyes In my heart)

I, have laid upon a deadman’s bed,
Only to fall into a trap of lies and seduction,
That rivals the greatest sense of love.

[Chorus]

Play it back until the voice becomes just a sound,
Planishing your mind with all these images of you.

I have given up an angel’s kiss,
Only to break apart your path of trust,
And burn myself down.
Struggle to the end; I scare myself.

[Chorus]

I’d give it all to have it back.
I could, have had it all
In front of you, all by myself.
Love in my eyes, lust in my heart, I made it all up.
Lies, deceit empowers me,
So it ends.

The Weak & The Wounded -- Silverstein

Vanity and Greed

Don't say you miss me yet
I must concede
There's something I have to explain
It isn't easy playing your way
I can't even begin to say

I'm taking back my conscience
I'm gonna take control

I've seen the bravest lions shy away
I've seen the tallest tress fall down
I've made a hobby of self-deprecating
My honesty and my integrity

Don't let me drag you down

Don't say goodnight, Say goodbye
(Say goodbye)
You can't mend a scar
(Mend a scar)
You can't fix a shattered heart
Don't even try

I'll sell you every ounce of honesty
You'll buy it all and lie with me
I can't pretend there's any truth to me
It's all just vanity and greed

I'm taking all your karma,
I'm gonna need it more

Don't say goodnight, Say goodbye
(Say goodbye)
You can't mend a scar
(Mend a scar)
You can't fix a shattered heart
Don't even try

Here's my advice if you know what's good for you
Don't let your guard down, don't let your guard down
Here's my advice if you know what's good for you
Don't let your guard down, don't let your guard down
Here's my advice if you know what's good for you
Don't let your guard down, don't let your guard down
Here's my advice if you know what's good for you
Don't let your guard down, don't let your guard down now

Don't let me drag you down

Don't say goodnight, say goodbye
(Say goodbye)
You can't mend a scar
(Mend a scar)
You can't fix a shattered heart
Don't even try

Don't say goodnight, say goodbye
(Say goodbye)
You can't mend a scar
(Mend a scar)
You can't fix a shattered heart
Don't even try

I'm taking back my conscience
I'm gonna take control
I'm taking all your karma
I'm gonna need it more

If Today Was Your Last Day

My best friend gave me the best advice
He said each day's a gift and not a given right
Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind
And try to take the path less traveled by
That first step you take is the longest stride

If today was your last day
and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
If today was your last day

Against the grain should be a way of life
What's worth the prize is always worth the fight
Every second counts 'cause there's no second try
So live like you'll never live it twice
Don't take the free ride in your own life

If today was your last day
and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
Would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce of memories
Would you forgive your enemies?
Would you find that one you're dreamin' of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you finally fall in love
If today was your last day

If today was your last day
Would you make your mark by mending a broken heart?
You know it's never too late to shoot for the stars
Regardless of who you are
So do whatever it takes
'Cause you can't rewind a moment in this life
Let nothin' stand in your way
Cause the hands of time are never on your side

If today was your last day
and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?

Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
Would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce of memories
Would you forgive your enemies?
Would you find that one you're dreamin' of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you finally fall in love
If today was your last day

If Today Was Your Last Day -- Nickelback

With Arms Wide Open

Well I just heard
The news today
It seems my life
Is gonna change
I close my eyes
Begin to pray
As tears of joy
Stream down my face

With arms wide open
Under the sunrise
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open

Well I don't know
If I'm ready
To be the man
I have to be
I take a breath
I take her by my side
We stand alone
We've created life

(chorus)

Now everything has changed
I'll show you love
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open

If I had just one wish
Only one demand
I hope he's not like me I hope he understands
Well we can take this life
And hold it by ourselves
And we can take these dreams
with arms wide open

(chorus)

With Arms Wide Open -- Creed

Discovering The Waterfront

I will promise myself I won’t care
Distracting myself from your stare
And I’ve seen this mistake once before
With your games I will never fall for

I’ve hung up my guns
I won’t kill again

I won’t forget you
I won’t forget you
I’m not gonna let you win
(I’m not gonna)

But I’m tired of lying
Tired of fighting you
And its not gonna change

You asked for my heart
You know that I’m down
But not the way you lie to me
And tear it all apart
And beg for me to stay

I’ve sailed off to sea
I’m not coming back

I won’t forget you
I won’t forget you
I’m not gonna let you win
I’m not gonna

But I’m tired of the lying
Tired of fighting you
And its not gonna change

Counting down
Make that sound
And you know it makes no sense

Counting down
Till you mess around
And I know you can’t ever change
When I’m trembling
Thrown overboard
When I’m ready to relive the past

Counting down
Make that sound
Break the silence

Pretend its not forever
Ill pull myself together
Ill say that ill forget her
Ill breathe
And ill say she never hurt me
And look at it as learning
And laugh about the good and the bad
Because I will live forever
We don’t belong together
I know ill feel better
One day when I can make it through

I won’t forget you
I won’t forget you
I’m not gonna let you win
I’m not gonna

But I’m tired of lying
Tired of fighting you
And its not gonna change

I won’t forget you
(Counting down)
I’m not gonna let you win
(Counting down)
I’m tired of the lying
Tired of fighting you
And its not gonna change

Struggle No More

Ooh I'm Ooh I'm (sick and tired sick and tired) Ooh I'm
Ooh I'm Ooh I'm (sick and tired sick and tired) Ooh I'm
Ooh I'm Ooh I'm (sick and tired sick and tired) Ooh I'm
Ooh I'm Ooh I'm (sick and tired sick and tired) Ooh I'm

Lately It's been hard times
I'm talking about them
Financial ones aside
And they say when it rains it pours
Well it's running at my door
If it ain't one thang (one thang) it's another
And I'm so glad that we got each other
I'm so sick and tired of being stressed out
Lord please help me from this mess I'm in

Lord lift me over the hurt and pain
Deliver me from the rain
See I don't wanna stress over stress no more
I don't wanna strug-gle no more
So lift me up over the hurt and pain
Deliver me from the rain
See I don't wanna stress over stress no more
I don't wanna strug-gle no more

Every day every night I pray
Lord help me find the way (help me find my way)
To stay strong
And to keep my sanity
So I can provide for myself
And for my family
I'm so glad they believe in me cause the love it gives me energy (said the love gives me energy)
And with out them I couldn't make it no way
So I'ma keep pressing on on and on
Lord lift me over the hurt and pain
Deliver me from the rain
See I don't wanna stress over stress no more
I don't wanna struggle no more
So lift me up over the hurt and pain
Deliver me from the rain
See I don't wanna stress over stress no more
I don't wanna struggle no more

I wanna see my family
Get what they want have what they want get what they need
(I wanna see the finer things like the ???? just reminding me)
I don't wanna strug-struggle no more
I don't wanna live out here broke
(Stay on the scene with the finer things, like the spot that I got that's reminding me)

Lord lift me over the hurt and pain
Deliver me from the rain
See I don't wanna stress over stress no more
I don't wanna struggle no more
So lift me up over the hurt and pain
Deliver me from the rain
See I don't wanna stress over stress no more
I don't wanna struggle no more

No more no more no more
No more no more no more
No more no more no more
No more no more no more

Struggle No More -- Anthony Hamilton

Fade To Black

Life it seems will fade away
Drifting further everyday
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters no one else
I have lost the will to live Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
Need the end to set me free

Things not what they used to be Missing one inside of me
Deadly loss this cant be real
Cannot stand this hell i feel
Emptiness is filling me To the point of agony
Growing darkness taking dawn
I was me but now, hes gone

No one but me can save myself, but its too late
Now i cant think, think why i should even try

Yesterday seems as though it never existed
Death greets me warm, now i will just say goodbye
Goodbye

Fade To Black -- Metallica

A Lucky Guy

Oh, he's a lucky guy
Oh, he's a lucky guy
He doesn't worry about me
When I'm gone
He goes to sleep at night
He don't turn off the light
And wonder how to find me
Or if I'm alone

Oh, he's a lucky guy
I wish I was like him
Cuz when he talks about me
He don't look this way
He's a lucky goy

He used to walk with me
He used to talk to me
See, we have these secrets
That no one else could hear
Well, he's not the only one
No, no not the only one
But what happens to them?

Do they matter?
Do they disappear
Into a lonely girl?
Now I'm a lonely girl
Cuz I want somebody with me in the world
Oh, he's a lucky guy

Fontune walks right in the door
And here I am
Just like before

Well, I'm not gonna turn around
I'm not his pretty clown
I'm not the one caught
Like he thought
He was the last one I had there
Cuz I did a foolish thing
A real, real stupid thing

I told him I love him
And I want him there
When I knew he wouldn't come

And I knew he didn't care
And I'll cry awhile
I'll cry awhile
But when I wake up
Tomorrow is a new day
I'm a lucky guy
Hey, I'm a lucky guy
Real, real lucky guy
Hey, I'm a lucky guy

A Lucky Guy -- Rickie Lee Jones
