    Bullet with Butterfly Wings
    Smashing Pumpkins


    The world is a vampire, sent to drain
    Secret destroyers, hold you up to the flames
    And what do I get for my pain?
    Betrayed desires, and a piece of the game

    Even though I know - I suppose I'll show
    All my cool and cold-like old job
    Despite all my rage I'm still just a rat in a cage
    Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
    Despite all my rage I'm still just a rat in a cage

    Now I'm naked, nothing but an animal
    But can you fake it, for just one more show?
    And what do you want, I want to change
    And what have you got when you feel the same

    Tell me I'm the only one
    Tell me there's no other one
    Jesus was an only son
    Tell me I'm the chosen one
    Jesus was an only son for you

    Despite all my rage I'm still just a rat in a cage
    Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
    Despite all my rage I'm still just a rat in a cage
    And I still believe that I cannot be saved

    Crazy
    Gnarls Barkley


    I remember when, I remember
    I remember when I lost my mind
    There was something so pleasant about that place
    Even your emotions have an echo in so much space

    And when you're out there without care
    Yeah, I was out of touch
    But it wasn't because I didn't know enough
    I just knew too much

    Does that make me crazy?
    Does that make me crazy?
    Does that make me crazy?
    Possibly

    And I hope that you are
    Having the time of your life
    But think twice
    That's my only advice

    Come on now, who do you
    Who do you, who do you, who do you think you are?
    Ha ha ha, bless your soul
    You really think you're in control?

    Well, I think you're crazy
    I think you're crazy
    I think you're crazy
    Just like me

    My heroes had the heart
    To lose their lives out on a limb
    And all I remember
    Is thinking, I want to be like them

    Ever since I was little
    Ever since I was little
    It looked like fun
    And it's no coincidence I've come
    And I can die when I'm done

    But maybe I'm crazy
    Maybe you're crazy
    Maybe we're crazy
    Probably

    Hey Lawdy Mama

    You'd like to show me all around
    Thank you girl but I know this town
    It's alright, hey lawdy mama, it's alright
    Don't you know they're all the same
    Only difference is the name
    It's alright, hey lawdy mama, it's alright
    Three motels, dusty cars
    A movie show and a dozen bars
    It's alright, hey lawdy mama, it's alright
    Only thing that I can say
    Is we'll be here for just one day

    Baby don't you know we're
    Leavin' early in the mornin'
    So long, I don't know we might be back next year
    Baby it just might be never
    Don't cha worry 'bout it
    So long, good to know your smilin' face was here

    This town is boring you to tears
    Nothing in the world ever happens here
    It's alright, hey lawdy mama, it's alright
    Don't you know you've got to help
    Nothing ever happens by itself
    It's alright, hey lawdy mama, it's alright
    If no one will share the load
    Go pack your bags, hit the open road
    It's alright, hey lawdy mama, it's alright
    Try to find someone like you
    Hope will tell you what to do

    Baby don't you know we're
    Leavin' early in the mornin'

    Burning for You
    Blue Oyster Cult


    Home in the valley
    Home in the city
    Home isn't pretty
    Ain't no home for me

    Home in the darkness
    Home on the highway
    Home isn't my way
    Home Ill never be

    Burn out the day
    Burn out the night
    I cant see no reason to put up a fight
    I'm living for givin' the devil his due
    And I'm burnin, I'm burnin, I'm burnin for you
    I'm burnin, I'm burnin, I'm burnin for you

    Time is the essence
    Time is the season
    Time ain't no reason
    Got no time to slow

    Time everlasting
    Time to play b-sides
    Time ain't on my side
    Time Ill never know

    Burn out the day
    Burn out the night
    I'm not the one to tell you whats wrong and whats right
    Ive seen suns that were freezing and lives that were through
    And I'm burnin, I'm burnin, I'm burnin for you
    I'm burnin, I'm burnin, I'm burnin for you

    Norah Jones


    What am I to you
    Tell me darling true
    To me you are the sea
    Vast as you can be
    And deep the shade of blue

    When you're feeling low
    To whom else do you go
    See I cry if you hurt
    I'd give you my last shirt
    Because I love you so

    If my sky should fall
    Would you even call
    Opened up my heart
    I never want to part
    I'm giving you the ball

    When I look in your eyes
    I can feel the butterflies
    I love you when you're blue
    Tell me darlin' true
    What am I to you

    Yeah well if my sky should fall
    Would you even call
    Opened up my heart
    Never wanna part
    I'm giving you the ball

    When I look in your eyes
    I can feel the butterflies
    Could you find a love in me
    Could you carve me in a tree
    Don't fill my heart with lies

    I will you love when you're blue
    Tell me darlin' true
    What am I to you
    What am I to you
    What am I to you

    What It's Like
    Everlast


    We've all seen the man at the liquor store beggin' for your change
    The hair on his face is dirty, dreadlocked and full of mange
    He ask the man for what he could spare with shame in his eyes
    Get a job you f*ckin' slob's all he replied

    God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in his shoes
    'Cause then you really might know what it's like to sing the blues
    Then you really might know what it's like [x4]

    Mary got pregnant from a kid named Tom who said he was in love
    He said don't worry about a thing baby doll I'm the man you've been dreamin' of
    But three months later he said he won't date her or return her call
    And she sweared god damn if I find that man I'm cuttin' off his balls
    And then she heads for the clinic and she gets some static walkin' through the doors
    They call her a killer, and they call her a sinner, and they call her a whore

    God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in her shoes
    'Cause then you really might know what it's like to have to choose
    Then you really might know what it's like [x4]

    I've seen a rich man beg
    I've seen a good man sin
    I've seen a tough man cry
    I've seen a loser win
    And a sad man grin
    I heard an honest man lie
    I've seen the good side of bad
    And the down side of up
    And everything between
    I licked the silver spoon
    Drank from the golden cup
    Smoked the finest green
    I stroked the fattest dimes at least a couple of times
    Before I broke their heart
    You know where it ends
    Yo, it usually depends on where you start

    I knew this kid named Max
    He used to get fat stacks out on the corner with drugs
    He liked to hang out late at night
    Liked to get sh*t faced
    And keep pace with thugs
    Until late one night there was a big gun fight
    Max lost his head
    He pulled out his chrome .45
    Talked some sh*t
    And wound up dead
    Now his wife and his kids are caught in the midst of all of his pain
    You know it crumbles that way
    At least that's what they say when you play the game

    God forbid you ever had to wake up to hear the news
    'Cause then you really might know what it's like to have to lose
    Then you really might know what it's like [x3]

    To have to lose...

    Dave Matthews


    Where are you going
    With the long face pulling down
    Don't hide away like an ocean
    But you can see, but you can smell and the sound
    Of your waves coming down

    I am no superman not at all
    But I have no answers for you
    I am no hero, and that's for sure
    But I do know one thing
    Where you go, is where I want to be
    Where are you going?
    Where do you go?

    Are you looking for answers
    For reasons under the stars
    If along the way, you are growing weary
    You can rest with me until a brighter day

    I am no superman, that's for sure
    And I have no answers, yeah
    I am no hero, oh don't you know
    But I do know one thing,
    Where you are is where I belong
    Where you go, I do know, is where I belong

    Where are you going, with your beautiful face looking down
    Don't hide away
    You are like an ocean
    That I cant see, but I can smell and the sound
    Of your waves coming down

    I am no superman, that's for sure
    I have no answers for you
    I am no hero, oh not at all
    I do know one thing, where you are is where I belong
    Where you are is where I want to be.

    All I want is You - U2


    You say you want
    Diamonds on a ring of gold
    You say you want
    Your story to remain untold
    But all the promises we make
    From the cradle to the grave
    When all I want is you

    You say you'll give me
    A highway with no one on it
    Treasure just to look upon it
    All the riches in the night

    You say you'll give me
    Eyes in a moon of blindness
    A river in a time of dryness
    A harbour in the tempest
    But all the promises we make
    From the cradle to the grave
    When all I want is you

    You say you want
    Your love to work out right
    To last with me through the night

    You say you want
    Diamonds on a ring of gold
    Your story to remain untold
    Your love not to grow cold

    All the promises we break
    From the cradle to the grave
    When all I want is you

    You
    All I want is...

    All those parties and games that all those people play
    They tell me this is the place to be
    All these beautiful people and nothin to see

    Sometimes I feel like something is gone here
    Something is wrong here, I dont belong here
    Sometimes I feel like a stranger in town
    And Ive lost what I found, itll all turn around

    [chorus]

    In a little while Ill be thinkin about you
    In a little while Ill still be here without you
    You never gave me a reason to doubt you
    In a little while Ill be thinkin about you baby...Ill be thinkin about you baby

    On the other side of a coin
    Theres a face theres a memory somewhere that I cant erase
    And theres a place that I find someday
    But sometimes I feel like its slippin away

    Sometimes I feel like something is gone here
    Something is wrong here, I dont belong here
    Sometimes I feel like a stranger in town
    And Ive lost what I found, itll all turn around

    [repeat chorus]

    Some things are lost some left behind
    Some things are better left for someone else to find
    Maybe in time I can finally see
    I just wonder, wonder if you think about me

    Sometimes I feel like something is gone here
    Something is wrong here, I dont belong here
    Sometimes I feel like a stranger in town

    Dancin' Days
    Led Zep


    Dancing days are here again
    As the summer evenings grow
    I got my flower, I got my power
    I got a woman who knows.

    I said its alright
    You know its alright
    I guess its all in my heart

    You'll be my only, my one and only
    Is that the way it should start?

    Crazy ways are evident
    In the way that you're wearing your clothes
    Sippin' booze is precedent
    As the evening starts to glow.

    I told your mamma I'd get you home
    But I didn't tell her I had no car
    I saw a lion he was standing alone
    With a tadpole in a jar.

    Dancing days are here again
    As the summer evening grows
    You are my flower, you are my power
    You are my woman who knows.

    Poets...The Tragically Hip

    Spring starts when a heartbeat's poundin'
    When the birds can be heard above the reckonin' carts doing some final accounting
    Lava flowin' in Super Farmer's direction
    He's been gettin' reprieve from the heat in the frozen-food section (yaa-Aa)

    Don't tell me what the poets are doing
    Don't tell me that they're talkin' tough
    Don't tell me that they're anti-social
    Somehow not anti-social enough, all right

    And porn speaks to it's splintered legions
    To the pink amid the withered corn stalks in them winter regions (euyeaaah)
    While aiming at the archetypal father
    He said with such broad and tentative swipes why do you even bother (yeeaaah)

    Don't tell me what the poets are doing
    Those Himalayas of the mind
    Don't tell me what the poets been doing
    In the long grasses over time

    { Instra }

    Don't tell me what the poets are doing
    On the street and the epitome of vague
    Don't tell me how the universe is altered
    When you find out how he gets paid, all right
    If there's nothing more that you need now
    Lawn cut by bare-breasted women
    Beach bleached towels within reach for the women gotta make it that'll make it by swimmin'

    Because I'm feeling soft and romantic tonight:

    Something
    George Harrison

    Something in the way, she moves
    Attracts me like no other lover
    Something in the way, she moves me

    I don't want to leave her now
    You know I believe, and how

    Something in the way, she smiles
    And I don't need no other lover
    Something in her style that shows me

    I don't want to leave her now
    You know I believe, and how

    You're asking me will my love grow?
    I don't know, I don't know
    You stick around now, it may show
    I don't know, I don't know

    Something in the way, she knows
    And all I have to do is think of her
    Something in the things, she shows me

    I don't want to leave her now
    You know I believe, and how​

    I absolutely love this song and George Harrison. He's sexy. :)

    I never needed love like I need you
    And I never lived for nobody, but I live for you
    Oooh, babe, lost in love is what I feel when I'm with you

    Maybe it's the way you touch me with the warmth of a sun
    Maybe it's the way you smile, I come all undone
    Oooh, babe, lost in love is that I feel when I'm with you

    Baby, oh I get chills when I'm with you
    Baby, my world stands still when I'm with you
    When I'm with you

    I never cared for nobody like I care for you
    And I never wanted to share the things I want to share with you
    Oooh, babe, lost in love is what I feel when I'm with you

    Baby, oh I get chills when I'm with you
    Baby, my world stands still when I'm with you
    When I'm with you

    Baby, oh I get chills when I'm with you
    Baby, my world stands still when I'm with you
    When I'm with you
    When I'm with you
    When I'm with you...

    She calls me goliath and I wear the david mask
    I guess the stones are coming too fast for her now
    You know Id like to believe this nervousness will pass
    All the stones that are thrown are building up a wall
    I have become cumbersome to this world
    I have become cumbersome to my girl

    Id like to believe we could reconcile the past
    Resurrect those bridges with an ancient glance
    But my old stone face cant seem to break her down
    She remembers bridges, burns them to the ground
    I have become cumbersome to this world
    I have become cumbersome to this girl

    Too heavy too light, too black or too white, too wrong or too right, today or tonight
    Cumbersome
    Too rich too poor, shes wanting me less and Im wanting her more
    The bitter taste is cumbersome

    There is a balance between two worlds
    One with an arrow and a cross
    Regardless of the balance life has become
    Cumbersome

    Be Yourself lyrics

    Someone falls to pieces, sleeping all alone
    Someone kills the pain, spinning in the silence
    To finally drift away

    Someone gets excited
    In a chapel yard and catches a bouquet
    Another lays a dozen, white roses on a grave

    Yeah and to be yourself is all that you can do
    Hey, to be yourself is all that you can do

    Someone finds salvation in everyone, another only pain
    Someone tries to hide himself, down inside himself he prays
    Someone swears his true love until the end of time
    Another runs away, separate or united, healthy or insane

    And to be yourself is all that you can do, yeah
    (All that you can do)
    To be yourself is all that you can do
    (All that you can do)

    To be yourself is all that you can do
    (All that you can do)
    Hey, be yourself is all that you can do

    Even when you've paid enough
    Been pulled apart or been held up
    Every single memory of the good or bad
    Faces of luck

    Don't lose any sleep tonight
    I'm sure everything will end up alright
    You may win or lose

    But to be yourself is all that you can do, yeah
    To be yourself is all that you can do

    Oh, to be yourself is all that you can do
    (All that you can do)
    Hey, to be yourself is all that you can do
    (All that you can do)

    To be yourself is all that you can
    Be yourself is all that you can
    Be yourself is all that you can do

    Doesn't Remind Me
    Audioslave


    I walk the streets of Japan till I get lost
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
    With a graveyard tan carrying a cross
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
    I like studying faces in a parking lot
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
    I like driving backwards in the fog
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything

    The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
    The things I've held sacred that I've dropped
    I won't lie no more you can bet
    I don't want to learn what I'll need to forget

    I like gypsy moths and radio talk
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
    I like gospel music and canned applause
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
    I like colorful clothing in the sun
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
    I like hammering nails and speaking in tongues
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything

    The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
    The things I've held sacred that I've dropped
    I won't lie no more you can bet
    I don't want to learn what I'll need

    Bend and shape me
    I love the way you are
    Slow and sweetly
    Like never before
    Calm and sleeping
    We won't stir up the past
    So discretely
    We won't look back

    The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
    The things I've held sacred that I've dropped
    I won't lie no more you can bet
    I don't want to learn what I'll need

    I like throwing my voice and breaking guitars
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
    I like playing in the sand what's mine is ours
    If it doesn't remind me of anything
