Missy Higgins: Nightminds
Just lay it all down. Put your face into my neck and let it fall out.
I know
I know
I know.
I knew before you got home.
This world you're in now,
It doesn't have to be alone,
I'll get there somehow, 'cos
I know I know I know
When, even springtime feels cold.
But I will learn to breathe this ugliness you see,
So we can both be there and we can both share the dark.
And in our honesty, together we will rise,
Out of our nightminds, and into the light
At the end of the fight...
You were blessed by a different kind of inner view: it's all magnified.
The highs would make you fly, and the lows make you want to die.
And I was once there, hanging from that very ledge where you are standing.
So I know
I know
I know,
It's easier to let go.
But I will learn to breathe this ugliness you see,
So we can both be there and we can both share the dark.
And in our honesty, together we will rise out of our nightminds
And into the light at the end of the fight.
...and in our honesty, together we will rise out of our nightminds
And into the light... at the end of the fight...

Yeah, this song pretty much describes me according to.. me.
Green Day - Walking Contradiction [Insomniac]
Do as I say not as I do because
The ****'s so deep you can't run away
I beg to differ on the contrary
I agree with every word that you say
Talk is cheap and lies are expensive
My wallet's fat and so is my head
Hit and run and then I'll hit you again
I'm a smart *** but I'm playing dumb
Standards set and broken all the time
Control the chaos behind a gun
Call it as I see it even if
I was born deaf, blind and dumb
Losers winning big on the lottery
Rehab rejects still sniffing glue
Constant refutation with myself
I'm a vicitm of a catch 22
I have no belief
But I believe
I'm a walking contradiction
And I ain't got no right
Do as I say not as I do because
The ****'s so deep you can't run away
I beg to differ on the contrary
I agree with every word that you say
Talk is cheap and lies are expensive
My wallet's fat and so is my head
Hit and run and then I'll hit you again
I'm a smart *** but I'm playing dumb
I have no belief
But I believe
I'm a walking contradiction
And I ain't got no right
I have no belief
But I believe
I'm a walking contradiction
And I ain't got no right

The Wallflowers: Beautiful Side of Somewhere
Tomorrow is gonna make you cry
It's gonna to make you kneel
Before it breaks you from inside
Still pressing on
Arm over arm
Still trying to get both feet back onto the ground
They are harvesting these fields in autumn.
We're different now than when we started
I am ready to wake up
There in the exodus
On the beautiful side of somewhere baby
There on the pavement
Underneath the yellow moon
I think of you
And just how easily we bruise
The folded address in my pocket i have stuffed
Trying to believe for you
That the bottom didn't drop
I am on the platform
Covered with dust
I pray they take the both of us
I am ready to wake up
There in the exodus
On the beautiful side of somewhere baby
I am ready to come down
To see us both somehow
On the beautiful side of somewhere someday

Lonely No More - by Rob Thomas
Now it seems to me
That you know just what to say
Words are only words
Can you show me something else
Can you swear to me that you'll always be this way
Show me how you feel
More than ever baby
[Chorus:]
I don't wanna be lonely no more
I don't wanna have to pay for this
I don't want to know the lover at my door
Is just another heartache on my list
I don't wanna be angry no more
You know I could never stand for this
So when you tell me that you love me know for sure
I don't want to be lonely anymore
Now its hard for me with my heart still on the mend
Open up to me like you do your girlfriends
And you sing to me and it's harmony
Girl, what you do to me is everything
Make me say anything; just to get you back again
Why can we just try
[Chorus:]
I don't wanna be lonely no more
I don't wanna have to pay for this
I don't want to know the lover at my door
Is just another heartache on my list
I don't wanna be angry no more
You know I could never stand for this
So when you tell me that you love me know for sure
I don't want to be lonely anymore
What if I was good to you, what if you were good to me
What if I could hold you till I feel you move inside of me
What if it was paradise, what if we were symphonies
What if I gave all my life to find some way to stand beside you
[Chorus:]
I don't wanna be lonely no more
I don't wanna have to pay for this
I don't want to know the lover at my door
Is just another heartache on my list
I don't wanna be angry no more
You know I could never stand for this
So when you tell me that you love me know for sure
I don't want to be lonely anymore
I don't wanna be lonely anymore [x3]

Kelly Osbourne - Papa Don't Preach
Papa I know you're going to be upset
'Cause I was always your little girl
But you should know by now
I'm not a baby
You always taught me right from wrong
I need your help, daddy please be strong
I may be young at heart
But I know what I'm saying
The one you warned me about
The one you said I could do without
We're in an awful mess, and I don't mean maybe, please
Papa don't preach, I'm in trouble deep
Papa don't preach, I've been losing sleep
But I made up my mind, oh, I'm keeping my baby
Ooh, Ooh, I'm going to keep my baby, ooh
He saws that hes going to marry me
We can raise a little family
Maybe we'll be alright
It's a sacrifice
But my friends keep telling me to give it up
Saying I'm too young, I ought to live it up
What I need right now is some good advice, please
Papa don't preach, I'm in trouble deep
Papa don't preach, I've been losing sleep
But I made up my mind, oh, I'm keeping my baby
Ooh, Ooh, I'm going to keep my baby, ooh
Daddy, daddy if you could only see
Just how good he's been treating me
You'd give us a blessing right now
Cause we are in love, we are in love, so please
Papa don't preach, I'm in trouble deep
Papa don't preach, I've been losing sleep
But I made up my mind, oh, I'm keeping my baby
Ooh, Ooh, I'm going to keep my baby, ooh
Don't stop loving me daddy
I know, I'm keeping me baby
Don't stop loving me daddy
I know, I'm keeping my baby

Iron Maiden - Phantom of the Opera
I've been looking so long for you now you won't get away from my grasp.
You've been living so long in hiding in hiding behind that false mask.
And you know and I know that you ain't got long now to last.
Your looks and your feelings are just the remains of your past.
You're standing in the wings, there you wait for the curtain to fall.
Knowing the terror and holding you have on us all.
Yeah, I know that you're gonna scratch me, maim me and maul.
You know I'm helpless from your mesmerising cat call.
Keep your distance, walk away, don't take his bait.
Don't you stray, don't fade away.
Watch your step, he's out to get you, come what may.
Don't you stray, from the narrow way.
I'm running and hiding in my dreams you're always there.
You're the Phantom of the Opera, you're the devil, you're just out to scare.
You damaged my mind and my soul it just floats through the air.
Haunt me, you taunt me, you torture me back at your lair

Sugababes - Ugly
When I was 7
They said I was strange
I noticed that my eyes and hair weren't the same
I asked my parents if I was OK
They said you're more beautiful
And that's the way they show that they wish
They had your smile
So my confidence was up for a while
I got real comfortable with my own style
I knew that they were only jealous cos
People are all the same
And we only get judged by what we do
Personality reflects name
And if I'm ugly then
So are you
So are you
There was a time when I felt like I cared
That I was shorter than everyone there
People made me feel like life was unfair
And I did things that made me ashamed
Cos I didn't know my body would change
I grew taller than them in more ways
But there will always be the one who will say
Something bad to make them feel great
People are all the same
And we only get judged by what we do
Personality reflects name
And if I'm ugly then
So are you
So are you
People are all the same
And we only get judged by what we do
Personality reflects name
And if I'm ugly then
So are you
So are you
Everybody talks bad about somebody
And never realises how it affects somebody
And you bet it won't be forgotten
Envy is the only thing it could be
Cos people are all the same
(The same, the same)
And we only get judged by what we do
(What we do, yeah, yeah)
Personality reflects name
And if I'm ugly then
(Yeah, you)
So are you
So are you
People are all the same
(Oh, oh, oh)
And we only get judged by what we do
(What we do, yeah)
Personality reflects name
And if I'm ugly then
(Yeah, so are you)
So are you
So are you

Green Day - Burnout [Dookie]
I declare I don't care no more
I'm burning up and out and growing bored
In my smoked out boring room
My hair is shagging in my eyes
Dragging my feet to hit the street tonight
To drive along these **** town lights
I'm not growing up, I'm just burning out
And I stepped in line to walk amongst the dead
Apathy has rained on me
Now I'm feeling like a soggy dream
So close to drowning but I don't mind
I've lived in this mental cave
Throw emotions in the grave
Hell, who needs them anyway.

Beatles - Hard day's night
It's been a hard day's night
And I've been working like a dog
It's been a hard day's night
I should be sleeping like a log
But when I get home to you
I find the things that you do
Will make me feel alright.
You know I work all day
To get you money to buy you things
And it's worth it just to hear you say
You're going to give me ev'rything
So why on earth should I moan
'Cause when I get you alone
You know I feel ok
When I'm home ev'rything seems to be right
When I'm home feeling you holding me tight, tight, yeh
It's been a hard day's night
And I've been working like a dog
It's been a hard day's night
I should be sleeping like a log
But when I get home to you
I find the things that you do
Will make me feel alright.
Owww!
So why on earth should I moan
'cause when I get you alone
You know I feel ok
When I'm home ev'rything seems to be right
When I'm home feeling you holding me tight, tight, yeh
It's been a hard day's night
And I've been working like a dog
It's been a hard day's night
I should be sleeping like a log
But when I get home to you
I find the things that you do
Will make me feel alright.
You know I feel alright
You know I feel alright

Wandering child,
So lost, so helpless
Yearning for my guidance
Christine:
Angel or father?
Friend or phantom?
Who is it there, staring?
Phantom:
Have you forgotten your Angel?

What endless longings
Echo in this whisper!

Too long you've wandered in winter
Far from my fathering gaze...

DHT - Listen To Your Heart
I know there?s something in the wake of your smile
I get a notion from the look in your eyes, yeah
you?ve built a love but that love falls apart
your little piece of heaven turns too dark
listen to your heart
when he?s calling for you
listen to your heart
there?s nothing else you can do
I don?t know where you?re going
and I don?t know why
but listen to your heart
before you tell him goodbye
sometimes you wonder if this fight is worthwhile
the precious moments are all lost in the tide, yeah
they?re swept away and nothing is what is seems
the feeling of belonging to your dreams
listen to your heart
when he?s calling for you
listen to your heart
there?s nothing else you can do
I don?t know where you?re going
and I don?t know why
but listen to your heart
before you tell him goodbye
and there are voices
that want to be heard
so much to mention
but you can?t find the words
the scent of magic
the beauty that?s been
when love was wilder than the wind
listen to your heart
when he?s calling for you
listen to your heart
there?s nothing else you can do
I don?t know where you?re going
and I don?t know why
but listen to your heart
before you tell him goodbye
Listen to your heart....mm..mmm
I don?t know where you?re going
and I don?t know why
but listen to your heart
before you tell him goodbye

"It Was a Good Day" -Ice Cube
Just waking up in the morning gotta thank God
I don't know but today seems kinda odd
No barking from the dog, no smog
And momma cooked a breakfast with no hog
I got my grub on, but didn't pig out
Finally got a call from a girl wanna dig out
Hooked it up for later as I hit the do'
Thinking will i live, another twenty-fo'
I gotta go cause I got me a drop top
And if I hit the switch, I can make the *** drop
Had to stop at a red light
Looking in my mirror not a jacker in sight
And everything is alright
I got a beep from Kim and she can f*** all night
Called up the homies and I'm askin y'all
Which park, are y'all playin basketball?
Get me on the court and I'm trouble
Last week f*****d around and got a triple double
Freaking niggaz every way like M.J.
I can't believe, today was a good day
Drove to the pad and hit the showers
Didn't even get no static from the cowards
Cause just yesterday them fools tried to blast me
Saw the police and they rolled right past me
No flexin, didn't even look in a niggaz direction
as I ran the intersection
Went to Short Dog's house, they was watchin YO! MTV Raps
What's the haps on the craps
Shake em up, shake em up, shake em up, shake em
Roll em in a circle of niggaz and watch me break em
With the seven, seven-eleven, seven-eleven
Seven even back do' little Joe
I picked up the cash flow
Then we played bones, and I'm yellin domino
Plus nobody I know got killed in South Central L.A.
Today was a good day
Left my niggaz house paid
Picked up a girl been tryin to f*** since the twelve grade
It's ironic, I had the brew she had the chronic
The Lakers beat the Supersonics
I felt on the big fat fanny
Pulled out the jammy, and killed the punanny
And my **** runs deep, so deep, so deep
put her *** to sleep
Woke her up around one
she didn't hesitate, to call Ice Cube the top gun
Drove her to the pad and I'm coasting
Took another sip of the potion hit the three-wheel motion
I was glad everything had worked out
Dropped her *** off, then I chirped out
Today was like one of those fly dreams
Didn't even see a berry flashing those high beams
No helicopter looking for a murder
Two in the morning got the Fatburger
Even saw the lights of the Goodyear Blimp
And it read Ice Cube's a pimp
Drunk as hell but no throwing up
Half way home and my pager still blowing up
Today I didn't even have to use my A.K.
I got to say it was a good day.
Hey wait, wait a minute boo Stop the s***
What the f*** am I thinking about?

"Cheerleader" - Deidre Flint
If I could live my life in rewind
There's a couple of changes I'd make this time
'Cause if I knew what was good for me
I'd have been practicing splits from the age of three
Oh, I got a masters, I got a car, I volunteer
and I can play the guitar
But I'd trade it all in the bat of an eye
For a polyester skirt ridin' up my thigh
Oh, life must be great like a permanent date
When you're a cheerleader
Oh, The fun doesn't end and your hair is your friend
When you're a cheerleader
Cheerleaders drive Camaros
Cheerleaders don't date geeks
And everybody thinks it's really cute the way she has to
S-P-L-L everything she speaks.
All the guys want to date her, all the girls want to be her
Next time 'round, I want to be a cheerleader
Cheerleading's a sport now that's what they're callin' for
Though it's the only sport I know that you put your makeup on for
Some women say that it harms and demeans
Can you guess who didn't make their high school teams?
Hey! Cheerleading teaches you valuable poise
You then can apply to the career of your choice like
Serving up burgers and fries with a smile
Or spraying perfume in the cosmetics aisle
Oh, a cheerleader might not have her GED
But she's pursuing one
Oh, a cheerleader might never be a CEO
But she'll be dating one
You get to ditch all your old loser friends
The moment that you make the squad
With the high school crest stretched across your chest
You're one step down from GOD!
Oh, all the guys want to date her, all the girls want to be her
Next time round, I want to be a cheerleader
<spoken>
Last night I had a dream I was back in high school and they just hung up the final cuts of the varsity cheerleading squad. It was utter mayhem. Girls were wailing and gnashing their teeth realizing that their social lives were completely over. Well, I managed to make my way through the moldering carnage until I found myself face to face with . . .
THE LIST!
- Gennifer
Jessyca
Tiffani
Stefanii
Brittani
Brytany
Britannee
Deirdre
Deirdre?!? Why That's ME! I made the team!! Oh my gosh! I never want to wake up from this wonderful dream!
</spoken>
Oh, life must be cool, I mean you totally rule as a cheerleader
All the dweebs stop in all when you strut down the hall
As a cheerleader
Cheerleaders don't wear glasses, cheerleaders don't get zits.
And all the girls would die to have their little tiny thighs
And their really, really, really big...
Makeup kits
All the guys want to date her. . .(well, a couple want to be her)
Next time round I want to be a cheerleader.

Possibly my favorite HH song. :3
Hawthorne Heights - Niki FM [The Silence in Black & White]
Let's go down now
into the darkness
of your thoughts
hurry up now
we're waiting for
us to fall
I fall to pieces now (I fall to pieces now)
a broken mirror (I fall to pieces)
in your life
The silence in black and white
falling forward as she walks toward the light
I know
I'm outside of your window with my radio
I sleep with one eye open so I can
see you breathing (I sleep with one eye open)
I follow your chest bone
Until I, (so I can see you breathing)
I can see you, I can hear you breathe in exhale
The Silence in black and white
I know
I'm outside of your window with my radio
I know now
I'm outside of your window with my radio
Know! Know!
I'm outside of your window
with my radio (so i can see you breathing)
I'm outside of your window
with my radio (so i can see you breathing)
I'm outside of your window
with my radio (so i can see you breathing)
I'm outside of your window with my radio
you are the only station
you play the song I know
you are the song I know

Mind if I jump in? My current favorite, one of the new Bionicle theme songs performed by some group called AIK. Expected from a livid fan like me.

"HERO"
As you?re on your way back home.
Something catch your eyes untold
Fear of darkness lingers here
You tremble as you get the fear!
Now you on the corner stone
Fearing you?d be left alone
Who will lose who will prevail?
Who will tell the final tale?
There it goes again
Do you know what it take?s to be a hero?
When you lost, a piece of love, a piece of you.
Do you have what it takes to beat the fear that?s
in your heart, to grow up strong, and undo wrong.
To grow up strong, and undo wrong.
You're walking down that well worn road
Some things changed but who would know
The smiles you get a poisoned well
The colour you once knew is killed
And, as you realize what's wrong
The dirt under you're feet is gone
The enemy looks in your eyes
Now is time to make it right!
You better make it right!
Do you know what it take?s to be a hero?
When you lost, a piece of love, a piece of you.
Do you have what it takes to beat the fear that?s
In your heart, to grow up strong, and redo wrong.
To grow up strong, and undo wrong.
What it takes to be a hero
To grow up strong and undo wrong

William Hung - She Bangs
Talk to me
Tell me your name
You blow me off like it's all the same
You lit a fuse and now I'm ticking away
Like a bomb
Yeah, Baby
Talk to me
Tell me your sign
You're switching sides like a Gemini
You're playing games and now you're hittin' my
heart
Like a drum
Yeah, Baby
Well if Lady Luck gets on my side
We're gonna rock this town alive
I'll let her rough me up
Till she knocks me out
She walks like she talks,
And she talks like she walks
And she bangs, she bangs
Oh baby
When she moves, she moves
I go crazy
'Cause she looks like a flower but she stings
like a bee
Like every girl in history
She bangs, she bangs
I'm wasted by the way she moves
No one ever looked so fine
She reminds me that a woman only got one thing on her mind
Talk to me
Tell me your name
I'm just a link in your daisy chain
Your rap sounds like a diamond
Map to the stars
Yeah, Baby
Talk to me
Tell me the news
You wear me out like a pair of shoes
We'll dance until the band goes home
Then you're gone
Yeah, Baby
Well if it looks like love should be a crime
You'd better lock me up for life
I'll do the time with a smile on my face
Thinking of her in her leather and lace
Well if Lady Luck gets on my side
We're gonna rock this town alive
I'll let her rough me up
Till she knocks me out
She walks like she talks,
And she talks like she walks
-
Reminds me of my aunt.
Eight o'clock on the morning that you left
The day was dark, I sat in my room
They walked in and told me that you'd gone
That moment on I knew you'd be our angel
Knew you'd be our angel (angel)
That day I spent
Was the hardest day ever
Trying to paint a picture for you
Before my eyes
There's so many colours
Just for today they all seem blue
Bridge:
Heaven, heaven was calling you
Heaven, heaven needed you
Chorus:
We'll join our hands again someday
(we'll join our hands)
And trade kisses before night (night)
And talk of the times we had
We'll be together oh someday
(we'll be together)
And watch over the stars at night (night)
And laugh at the fun we had
It was our day
Oh! Yeah
I'll lay a rose
Beside you forever
And light a candle to remind me of you
Here in my heart
You'll be on my journey
Wherever I go, whatever I do
Bridge:
Heaven, heaven was calling you
Heaven, heaven needed you
Chorus:
We'll join our hands again someday
(we'll join our hands)
And trade kisses before night (night)
And talk of the times we had
We'll be together oh someday
(we'll be together)
And watch over the stars at night (night)
And laugh at the fun we had
It was our day
Oh our day

In honour of my friend Aaron, who not only loves this song but is a bit of a basketcase. XD
I love how this song is sung. XD It sounds like he has a cold or something. :3 soadoreablewtf.
Green Day - Basket Case [Dookie]
do you have the time
do listen to me whine
about nothing and everything all at once?
i am one of those
melodramatic fools
neurotic to the bone
no doubt about it
sometimes i give myself the creeps
sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
it all keeps adding up
i think i'm cracking up
am i just paranoid?
i'm just stoned
i went to a shrink
to analyze my dreams
she said it's lack of sex
that's bringing me down
i went to a *****
he said my life's a bore
so quit my whining
'cause it's bringing her down
sometimes i give myself the creeps
sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
it all keeps adding up
i think i'm cracking up
am i just paranoid?
i don't know
grasping to control
so i better hold on
sometimes i gives myself the creeps
sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
it all keeps adding up
i think i'm cracking up
am i just paranoid
or am i just stoned?

Drive - by Incubus
Sometimes, I feel the fear
of uncertainty stinging clear.
And I can't help but ask myself
how much I'll let the fear
take the wheel and steer.
It's driven me before,
and it seems to have a vague,
haunting mass appeal.
But lately I'm beginning to find I
should be the one behind the wheel.
[Chorus]
Whatever tomorrow brings I'll be there
with open arms and open eyes. yeah.
Whatever tomorrow brings I'll be there,
I'll be there.
So if I decide to waiver my chance
to be one of the hive
will I choose water over wine
and hold my own and drive? oh oh oooh.
It's driven me before
and it seems to be the way
that everyone else gets around.
But lately I'm beginning to find that
when I drive myself my light is found.
[Chorus]
Whatever tomorrow brings I'll be there
with open arms and open eyes. Yeah.
Whatever tomorrow brings I'll be there,
I'll be there...
Would you choose water over wine....
hold the wheel and drive?
[Chorus]
Whatever tomorrow brings I'll be there
with open arms and open eyes.
Whatever tomorrow brings I'll be there
I'll be there
Tomorrow...
