1 Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you.
2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.
3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh
as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.
4 Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud,
crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth.
5 Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.
6 Ye have condemned and killed the just; and he doth not resist you.
7 Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious
fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain.
8 Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh.
9 Grudge not one against another, brethren, lest ye be condemned: behold, the judge standeth before the door.
10 Take, my brethren, the prophets, who have spoken in the name of the Lord, for an example of suffering
affliction, and of patience.
11 Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end
of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.
12 But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, neither by the earth, neither by any other oath:
but let your yea be yea; and your nay, nay; lest ye fall into condemnation.
13 Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him sing psalms.
14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, annointing him
with oil in the name of the Lord:
15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins,
they shall be forgiven him.
16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer
of a righteous man availeth much.
17 Elias was man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained
not on the earth by the space of three years and six months.
18 And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit.
19 Brethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one convert him:
20 Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death,
and shall hide a multitude of sins.

My Chemical Romance - Desolation Row
My Chemical Romance - Desolation Row
They're selling postcards of the hanging
Well, they're painting the passports brown
And the beauty parlor's filled with sailors
The circus is in town
Oh, now look, here comes the blind commissioner
Well, they got him in a trance
One hand is tied to the tight-rope walker
The other's in his pants
And the riot squad they're restless
They need somewhere to go
As Lady and I look out tonight
From Desolation Row
Cinderella, she seems so easy
"Well, it takes one to know one," she smiles
And she puts her hands in her back pockets
Oh, Bette Davis style
And now here comes Romeo, moaning
"You belong to me, I believe"
And if someone says, "You're in the wrong place, my friend"
You better leave
And then the only sound that's left
After the ambulances go
Is Cinderella sweeping up
On Desolation Row
Now at midnight, all the agents
And superhuman crew
Go out and round up everyone
That knows more than they do (Knows more than they do)
They're going to bring them to the factory
Where the heart-attack machine
Is strapped across their shoulders
And then the kerosene
Is brought down from the castles
By insurance men who go
Check to see that no one is escaping
To Desolation Row
Because right now, I can't read too good
Don't send me no letters, no
Not unless you're going to mail them
From Desolation Row
My Chemical Romance - Helena (live from LA: Killjoys Make Some Noise)
[Verse 1]
Long ago, just like the hearse, you die to get in again
We are so far from you
Burning on, just like a match you strike to incinerate
The lives of everyone you know
[Pre-Chorus]
And what's the worst you take (Worst you take)
From every heart you break? (Heart you break)
And like the blade you stain (Blade you stain)
Well, I've been holding on tonight
[Chorus]
What's the worst that I can say?
Things are better if I stay
So long, and goodnight
So long, and goodnight
[Verse 2]
Came a time when every star fall
Brought you to tears again
We are the very hurt you sold
[Pre-Chorus]
And what's the worst you take (Worst you take)
From every heart you break? (Heart you break)
And like the blade you stain (Blade you stain)
Well, I've been holding on tonight
[Chorus]
What's the worst that I can say?
Things are better if I stay
So long, and goodnight
So long, and goodnight
Well, if you carry on this way
Things are better if I stay
So long, and goodnight
So long, and goodnight
[Bridge]
Can you hear me? Are you near me?
Can we pretend to leave, and then
We'll meet again
When both our cars collide?
[Chorus]
What's the worst that I can say?
Things are better if I stay
So long, and goodnight
So long, and goodnight
Well, if you carry on this way
Things are better if I stay
So long, and goodnight
So long, and goodnight

Greta Van Fleet - When the Curtain Falls
One, two, three, four
Well, you're so pretty and I love you so
You know I'm your biggest fan
I saw your picture and it's the best
The finest in the land
Camera lights and action
Yeah, the words you know so well
You're in and out of fashion
In Hollywood of Hell
When the curtain falls
Walk the hollow walls, babe
Once a valley doll
Now you're not at all, no
Well, I love you in that movie show
Can I have your autograph?
It's so funny you have such charm
The whole thing made me laugh
Obetrol and cocktails
You're counting all your rings
They all said they loved you
Didn't they, darling?
Well, they've taken all your things
When the curtain falls
Walk the hollow walls, babe
Once a valley doll
Now you're not at all, no
Well, listen darling
It's been real swell
What can I say, you've got it all
You're a one woman show
But I'm not gonna lie to you
You could use a little work, well
What you got, baby?
When the curtain falls
Walk the hollow walls, babe
Once a valley doll
Now you're not at all
Goodbye, baby, goodbye
MEAU - Dat heb jij gedaan (All On You)
MEAU - Dat heb jij gedaan (All On You)
English translation from a cover the first verse and chorus are literal
Yesterday I sat down with a friend
talked about how I let 'us' come to an end
a long time ago, but long overdue
the look on your face when I told you we're through
how were your beliefs and behaviors so rough
you couldn't see anyone be enough
you couldn't do wrong, no you couldn't see how
I close my eyes looking back on it now
Oh I was just a girl you a terrible dream
I promised myself I would leave it to be
locked away in the past but it fills me with dread
I tried to forget but you're still in my head
'Cause the pain is real, leaving scars on my heart
I would do anything just to get a new start
but this feeling inside whatever I do
It won't go away and that's all on you
You didn't see what your words did to me
talking me down 'til I'd almost agree
I didn't know, never had this before
gave you all that I had, but you wanted more
Trying to change me like something was wrong
I wasn't broken but you strung me along
I should've just left is so easy to say
but I wanted love 'stead of walking away
Oh I was just a girl you a terrible dream
I promised myself I would leave it to be
locked away in the past but it fills me with dread
I tried to forget but you're still in my head
'Cause the pain is real, leaving scars on my heart
I would do anything just to get a new start
but this feeling inside whatever I do
It won't go away and that's all on you
You tried to break me, tried to hurt me and leave me in pieces
Looks like you didn't care what would happen, do you know 'bout the damage you did
You tried to break me, tried to hurt me and leave me in pieces
Looks like you didn't care what would happen, do you know 'bout the damage you did
Oh I was just a girl you a terrible dream
I promised myself I would leave it to be
locked away in the past but it fills me with dread
I tried to forget but you're still in my head
'Cause the pain is real, leaving scars on my heart
I would do anything just to get a new start
but this feeling inside whatever I do
It won't go away and that's all on you
original from video
Gisteren zat ik hier met een vriend,
we hadden het over toen ik jou verliet.
Al best lang geleden, toch te lang gewacht
,
we hadden het over je ziel en je kracht
Hoe jij dat zo zag dan hoe jij je gedroeg,
nee voor jou was er nooit iemand genoeg.
Jij was t speciaalst deed nog nooit iets verkeerd,
met gesloten ogen bekeek ik het weer
Hoe ik toen een meisje was, jij een vreselijke droom
Had mezelf het gezegd, en mezelf het beloofd
Dat het afgesloten, weg met verdriet
En ik zou het vergeten maar het lukt me weer niet
Want de pijn die blijft het zit dieper dan dat,
Ik zou een moord doen zodat ik je woorden vergat
Want dat klote gevoel dat toen is ontstaan,
Dat gaat nooit meer weg en dat heb jij gedaan
Gisteren kwam er een besef
jij duwde iedereen ver van me weg
Dingen die jij tegen me zei
dat vrienden me haatten maar jij hield van mij
Je uitspraken waren zo goed als gestoord
vooral met een slok op dan draaide je door
Nu makkelijk praten had weg moeten gaan
Maar graag had ik nog zoveel anders gedaan
Hoe ik toen een meisje was, jij een vreselijke droom
Had mezelf het gezegd, en mezelf het beloofd
Dat het afgesloten, weg met verdriet
En ik zou het vergeten maar het lukt me weer niet
Want de pijn die blijft het zit dieper dan dat
Ik zou een moord doen zodat ik je woorden vergat
Want dat klote gevoel dat toen is ontstaan,
Dat gaat nooit meer weg en dat heb jij gedaan
Je hebt me beschadigd,
met de pijn van je verzopen daden
En zo heb je me achter gelaten
, lijkt wel ziek heb je dat in de gaten
Je hebt me beschadigd,
met de pijn van je verzopen daden
En zo heb je me achter gelaten
, lijkt wel ziek heb je dat in de gaten
Hoe ik toen een meisje was, jij een vreselijke droom
Had mezelf het gezegd, en mezelf het beloofd
Dat het afgesloten, weg met verdriet
En ik zou het vergeten maar het lukt me weer niet
Want de pijn die blijft het zit dieper dan dat
Ik zou een moord doen zodat ik je woorden vergat
Want dat klote gevoel dat toen is ontstaan,
Dat gaat nooit meer weg en dat heb jij gedaan
Switchfoot - Fake Plastic Trees - Live (Radiohead)
Switchfoot - Fake Plastic Trees
A green plastic watering can
For a fake Chinese rubber plant
In the fake plastic earth
That she bought from a rubber man
In a town full of rubber plans
To get rid of itself
It wears her out
It wears her out
It wears her out
It wears her out
She lives with a broken man
A cracked polystyrene man
Who just crumbles and burns
He used to do surgery
For girls in the eighties
But gravity always wins
And it wears him out
It wears him out
It wears him out
Wears him out
She looks like the real thing
She tastes like the real thing
My fake plastic love
But I can't help the feeling
I could blow through the ceiling
If I just turn and run
And it wears me out
It wears me out
It wears me out
It wears me out
And if I could be who you wanted
If I could be who you wanted
All the time
All the time
Daniel Hermann - The Kill (Thirty Seconds to Mars)
[Verse 1]
What if I wanted to break?
Laugh it all off in your face
What would you do? (Woah)
What if I fell to the floor?
Couldn't take this anymore
What would you do, do, do?
[Chorus]
Come break me down
Bury me, bury me
I am finished with you
[Verse 2]
What if I wanted to fight
Beg for the rest of my life
What would you do, do, do?
You say you wanted more
What are you waiting for?
I'm not running from you, from you
[Chorus]
Come break me down
Bury me, bury me
I am finished with you
Look in my eyes
You're killin' me, killin' me
All I wanted was you
Five for Fighting - World
Got a package full of Wishes
A Time machine, a Magic Wand
A Globe made out of Gold
No Instructions or Commandments
Laws of Gravity or
Indecisions to uphold
Printed on the box I see
A.C.M.E.'s Build-a-World-to-be
Take a chance - Grab a piece
Help me to believe it
What kind of world do you want?
Think Anything
Let's start at the start
Build a masterpiece
Be careful what you wish for
History starts now...
Adam Levine - Lost Stars (from Begin Again)
Please don't see just a boy caught up in dreams and fantasies
Please see me reaching out for someone I can't see
Take my hand let's see where we wake up tomorrow
Best laid plans sometimes are just a one night stand
I'd be damned Cupid's demanding back his arrow
So let's get drunk on our tears and
God, tell us the reason youth is wasted on the young
It's hunting season and the lambs are on the run
Searching for meaning
But are we all lost stars, trying to light up the dark?
Who are we? Just a speck of dust within the galaxy?
Woe is me, if we're not careful turns into reality
Don't you dare let our best memories bring you sorrow
Yesterday I saw a lion kiss a deer
Turn the page maybe we'll find a brand new ending
Where we're dancing in our tears and
God, tell us the reason youth is wasted on the young
It's hunting season and the lambs are on the run
Searching for meaning
But are we all lost stars, trying to light up the dark?
I thought I saw you out there crying
I thought I heard you call my name
I thought I heard you out there crying
Just the same
God, give us the reason youth is wasted on the young
It's hunting season and this lamb is on the run
Searching for meaning
But are we all lost stars, trying to light up the dark?
I thought I saw you out there crying
I thought I heard you call my name
I thought I heard you out there crying
But are we all lost stars, trying to light up the dark?
But are we all lost stars, trying to light up the dark?
The Struts - Could Have Been Me (Live on the Preston & Steve Show on 93.3 WMMR)
The Struts - Could Have Been Me
Don't wanna live as an untold story
Rather go out in a blaze of glory
I can't hear you, I don't fear you
I'll live now 'cause the bad die last
Dodging bullets with your broken past
I can't hear you, I don't fear you now
Wrapped in your regret
What a waste of blood and sweat
Oh-oh-oh
I wanna taste love and pain
Wanna feel pride and shame
I don't wanna take my time
Don't wanna waste one line
I wanna live better days
Never look back and say
Could have been me
It could have been me
Yeah
Don't wanna live as an unsung melody
I'd rather listen to the silence telling me
I can't hear you, I won't fear you
Don't wanna wake up on a Monday morning
The thought of work is getting my skin crawling
I can't fear you, I don't hear you now
Wrapped in your regret
What a waste of blood and sweat
Oh-oh-oh
I wanna taste love and pain
Wanna feel pride and shame
I don't wanna take my time
Don't wanna waste one line
I wanna live better days
Never look back and say
Could have been me
It could have been me
Yeah
Hey
I wanna taste love and pain
Wanna feel pride and shame
Don't wanna take my time (no)
Don't wanna waste one line (hey, hey)
Wanna live better days (just better)
Never look back and say
Could have been me
It could have been me
It could have been me
It could have been me
I wanna taste love and pain
Wanna feel pride and shame
I don't wanna take my time
Don't wanna waste one line
I wanna live better days (just better)
Never look back and say
Could have been me
It could have been me
It could have been me
It could have been me
Yeah

Bring Me The Horizon - Shadow Moses
[Intro]
Can you tell from the look in our eyes (We're going nowhere?)
We live our lives like we're ready to die (We're going nowhere)
Can you tell from the look in our eyes (We're going nowhere?)
We live our lives like we're ready to die (We're going nowhere)
[Verse 1]
I thought I'd buried you and covered the tracks
You'll have to take this with your cold dead hands
I thought I'd buried you, what's dead can never die
I thought I'd cut you loose, severed the feeling
I slipped through the cracks and you caved in my ceiling
I thought I'd buried you, what's dead can never die, f---
[Chorus]
Can you tell from the look in our eyes (We're going nowhere?)
We live our lives like we're ready to die (We're going nowhere)
You can run, but you'll never escape (Over and over again)
Will we ever see the end? (We're going nowhere)
[Verse 2]
This is sempiternal, will we ever see the end?
This is sempiternal over and over, again and again
"Rise from the dead," you say
Secrets don't sleep till they're took to the grave
Signal the sirens, rally the troops
Ladies and gentlemen, it's the moment of truth
[Chorus]
Can you tell from the look in our eyes (We're going nowhere?)
We live our lives like we're ready to die (We're going nowhere)
You can run, but you'll never escape (Over and over again)
Will we ever see the end? (We're going nowhere)
Can you tell from the look in our eyes (We're going nowhere?)
We live our lives like we're ready to die (We're going nowhere)
You can run, but you'll never escape (Over and over again)
Will we ever see the end? (We're going nowhere)
[Outro]
This is sempiternal, will we ever see the end?
This is sempiternal over and over, again and again

Run away from all your boredom
Run away from all your whoredom and wave
Your worries and cares, goodbye
All it takes is one decision
A lot of guts, a little vision to wave
Your worries and cares goodbye
It's a maze for rats to try
It's a maze for rats to try
It's a race, a race for rats
A race for rats to die
It's a race, a race for rats
A race for rats to die
Sick and tired of Maggie's farm
She's a bitch with broken arms to wave
Your worries and cares, goodbye
It's a maze for rats to try
It's a maze for rats to try
It's a race, a race for rats
A race for rats to die
It's a race, a race for rats
A race for rats to die
It's a race, a race for rats
A race for rats to die
It's a race, a race for rats
A race for rats to die
Burn away
Run away, run away
Run away, run away

[Verse 1: Brann Dailor]
Will there ever be a moment I won't feel this heat coming up from ground?
Will there ever be a time when I can show myself through open doors?
All I need is you to tell me how to reconcile this guilt and shame
I’ve already ripped myself to pieces and I've given it away
[Chorus: Troy Sanders]
All the weight lies upon my shoulders from
The great disruption
It's hard to breathe inside these waves of doubt
Tidal distraction
[Verse 2: Brann Dailor]
Can you tell me how to wish away this chaos making my head spin?
Can you tell me how to soothe the savage beast locked up inside these walls?
Will there ever be a place that I can hide and heal these open sores?
Or do I have to cut them out and eat them as my people adore?
[Chorus: Troy Sanders]
All the weight lies upon my shoulders from
The great disruption
It’s hard to breathe inside these waves of doubt
Tidal distraction
[Bridge: Troy Sanders with Brann Dailor]
I have, I have lost my way
Reaching, reaching for today
I have, I have lost my way
Reaching, reaching for today
[Outro: Brann Dailor]
Say when
And I'll come running back
Say when
And I'll come running back
Say when
And I'll come running back
Say when
And I'll come running back

KoRn - Another Brick in the Wall (live at Sziget 2012)
KoRn - Another Brick in the Wall
You, Yes You, Stand Still Laddie!
When we grew up and went to school, there were certain teachers who would hurt the children anyway they could
by pouring their derision upon anything we did
exposing every weakness however carefully hidden by the kids.
But in the town it was well known that when they got home at night
their fat and psychopathic wives
Would thrash them within inches of their lives!
ooooooooooooo, oooooooo, ooooooooooo, ooooooooo, ooooooooo, ooooooooo,oooo.
We don't need no education
We don't need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers leave them kids alone
Hey! Teacher! Leave them kids alone!
All in all it's just another brick in the wall.
All in all you're just another brick in the wall.
(A bunch of kids singing) We don't need no education
We don't need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers leave them kids alone
Hey! Teacher! Leave us kids alone!
All in all it's just another brick in the wall.
All in all you're just another brick in the wall.
Spoken:
"Wrong, Guess again!
Wrong, Guess again!
If you don't eat yer meat, you can't have any pudding.
How can you have any pudding if you don't eat yer meat?
You! Yes, you behind the bikesheds, stand still laddie!"
[Sound of many TV's coming on, all on different channels]
"The Bulls are already out there"
Pink: "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrgh!"
"This Roman Meal bakery thought you'd like to know."
I don't need no arms around me
And I dont need no drugs to calm me.
I have seen the writing on the wall.
Don't think I need anything at all.
No! Don't think I'll need anything at all.
All in all it was all just bricks in the wall.
All in all you were all just bricks in the wall.
My Chemical Romance - Common People (Pulp cover) Recorded for BBC Radio
My Chemical Romance - Common People
She came from Greece, she had a thirst for knowledge
She studied sculpture at Saint Martin's College
That's where I caught her eye
She told me that her dad was loaded
I said: In that case, I'll have rum and Coca-Cola
She said: Fine
And then in thirty seconds time, she said
I wanna live like common people
I wanna do whatever common people do
Wanna sleep with common people
I wanna sleep with common people like you
Well, what else could I do?
I said: I'll, I'll see what I can do
I took her to a supermarket
I don't know why, but I had to start it somewhere
So it started there
I said: Pretend you got no money
And she just laughed and said: Oh, you're so funny
I said: Yeah, huh
Well, I can't see anyone else smiling in here
Are you sure
You wanna live like common people?
You wanna see whatever common people see?
Wanna sleep with common people?
You wanna sleep with common people like me?
But she didn't understand
And she just smiled and held my hand
Oh, rent a flat above a shop
And cut your hair and get a job
And smoke some fags and play some pool
Pretend you never went to school
But still, you'll never get it right
'Cause when you're laid in bed at night
Watching roaches climb the wall
If you called your dad, he could stop it all, yeah
You'll never live like common people
You'll never do whatever common people do
Never fail like common people
You'll never watch your life slide out of view
And then dance and drink and screw
Because there's nothing else to do
Oh!
Sing along with the common people
Sing along, and it might just get you through
Laugh along with the common people
Laugh along, even though they're laughing at you
And the stupid things that you do
Because you think that poor is cool
Ah
Like a dog lying in a corner
They will bite you and never warn you
Look out, they'll tear your insides out
'Cause everybody hates a tourist
Especially one who, who thinks it's all such a laugh
Yeah, and the chip stains and grease will come out in the bath
You will never understand
How it feels to live your life
With no meaning or control
And with nowhere left to go
You are amazed that they exist
And they burn so bright whilst you can only wonder why
Rent a flat above a shop
Cut your hair and get a job
And smoke some fags and play some pool
Pretend you never went to school
But still, you'll never get it right
'Cause when you're laid in bed at night
Watching roaches climb the wall
If you called your dad, he could stop it all, yeah
Never live like common people
Never do what common people do
Never fail like common people
Never watch your life slide out of view
And then dance and drink and screw
Because there's nothing else to do, ooh
Wanna live with common people like you
Wanna live with common people like you
Wanna live with common people like you
Wanna live with common people like you
Wanna live with common people like you
Wanna live with common people like you
Wanna live with common people like you
La, la, la, la

Metallica - ....And Justice for All (live in Seattle, 1989)
Metallica - ....And Justice for All
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Halls of justice painted green, money talking
Power wolves beset your door, hear them stalking
Soon you'll please their appetite they devour
Hammer of justice crushes you, overpower
[Pre-Chorus]
The ultimate in vanity
Exploiting their supremacy
I can't believe the things you say
I can't believe, I can't believe the price
You pay
[Chorus]
Nothing can save you
Justice is lost, justice is raped, justice is gone
Pulling your strings, justice is done
Seeking no truth, winning is all
Find it so grim, so true, so real
[Verse 2]
Apathy their stepping stone, so unfeeling
Hidden deep animosity, so deceiving
Through your eyes their light burns, hoping to find
Inquisition sinking you with prying minds
[Pre-Chorus]
The ultimate in vanity
Exploiting their supremacy
I can't believe the things you say
I can't believe, I can't believe the price
You pay
[Chorus]
Nothing can save you
Justice is lost, justice is raped, justice is gone
Pulling your strings, justice is done
Seeking no truth, winning is all
Find it so grim, so true, so real
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Lady justice has been raped, truth assassin
Rolls of red tape seal your lips, now you're done in
Their money tips her scales again, make your deal
Just what is truth? I cannot tell, cannot feel
[Pre-Chorus]
The ultimate in vanity
Exploiting their supremacy
I can't believe the things you say
I can't believe, I can't believe the price
We pay
[Chorus]
Nothing can save us
Justice is lost, justice is raped, justice is gone
Pulling your strings, justice is done
Seeking no truth, winning is all
Find it so grim, so true, so real
[Outro]
Seeking no truth, winning is all
Find it so grim, so true, so real
Greta Van Fleet - Heat Above
[Verse 1]
Sorrows of the Earth
May our tears of rain wash down to bathe you
This is what life is worth
When the fires still burn and rage all around
[Chorus]
Can you hear that dreadful sound?
Fire still burning on the ground
[Verse 2]
Follow the fearsome sound
As they march to battle, hear the drums pound
We do not fight for war
But to save the lives of those who do so
[Chorus]
Can you hear that dreadful sound?
Fire still burning on the ground
[Post-Chorus]
Can you feel my love?
Rising with the heat above
Life's the story of
Ascending to the stars as one
[Verse 3]
Marching across the land
Is a peaceful army joining the band
Walking hand in hand
To anthem loudly sung where they stand
[Chorus]
Can you hear that dreadful sound?
Fire still burning on the ground
[Post-Chorus]
Can you feel my love?
Rising with the heat above
Life's the story of
Ascending to the stars as one

For amber waves of grain
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!
O beautiful for pilgrim feet
Whose stern impassioned stress
A thoroughfare of freedom beat
Across the wilderness!
America! America!
God mend thine every flaw
Confirm thy soul in self-control
Thy liberty in law!
O beautiful for heroes proved
In liberating strife
Who more than self their country loved
And mercy more than life!
America! America!
May God thy gold refine
Till all success be nobleness
And every gain divine!
O beautiful for patriot dream
That sees beyond the years
Thine alabaster cities gleam
Undimmed by human tears!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!
O beautiful for halcyon skies
For amber waves of grain
For purple mountain majesties
Above the enameled plain!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
Till souls wax fair as earth and air
And music-hearted sea!
O beautiful for pilgrims feet
Whose stem impassioned stress
A thoroughfare for freedom beat
Across the wilderness!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
Till paths be wrought through
Wilds of thought
By pilgrim foot and knee!
Delta Spirit - Hold My End Up (live Bing Lounge)
Delta Spirit - Hold My End Up
The sun fell, another night began
Shots rang out, all the people ran
Confident in our innocence
Promises out in the wilderness
I know, I said, I would
I know, I said, I would
The martyred sons of a forgotten fit
Bend a knee for your favorite
So foolish in their innocence
Promises out in the wilderness
I know, I said, I would
I know, I said, I would
Hold my end, hold my end up, hold my end
Hold my end, hold my end up, hold my end
It's not too late to turn your back on them
What kind of friend would lead you to your death?
Don't be foolish in your innocence
Break the promise in the wilderness
I know, you said, you would
I know, you said, you would
I know
Hold my end, hold my end up, hold my end
Hold my end, hold my end up, hold my end
I know, you said, you would
I know, you said, you would
Nickelback - When We Stand Together
Nickelback - When We Stand Together
[Verse 1]
One more depending on a prayer
And we all look away
People pretending everywhere
It's just another day
There's bullets flying through the air
And they still carry on
We watch it happen over there
And then just turn it off
[Chorus]
(Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah)
We must stand together
(Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah)
There's no giving in
(Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah)
Hand in hand forever
(Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah)
That's when we all win
(Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah)
That's, that's, that's when we all win
That's, that's, that's when we all win
[Verse 2]
They tell us everything's alright
And we just go along
How can we fall asleep at night
When something's clearly wrong?
When we could feed a starving world
With what we throw away
But all we serve are empty words
That always taste the same
[Chorus]
(Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah)
We must stand together
(Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah)
There's no giving in
(Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah)
Hand in hand forever
(Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah)
That's when we all win
(Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah)
That's, that's, that's when we all win
(Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah)
That's, that's, that's when we all win
[Bridge]
The right thing to guide us
Is right here inside us
No one can divide us
When the light is nearly gone
But just like a heartbeat
The drumbeat carries on
And the drumbeat carries on
(Just like a heartbeat)
[Chorus]
(Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah)
We must stand together
(Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah)
There's no giving in
(Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah)
Hand in hand forever
(Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah)
That's when we all win
(Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah)
That's, that's, that's when we all win
That's, that's, that's when we all win
Nothing More - This Is The Time (Ballast)
Nothing More - This Is The Time (Ballast)
When did we become these sinking stones?
When did we build this broken home?
Holding each other like ransom notes
Dropping our hearts to grip our brother's throat
You can't see because you don't know
You're caught below, beneath your own shadow
Stuck inside, half alive
Do you ever stop to ask yourself why?
Close your mind, identify
Do you feel, do you feel?
Do you call this a life?
All you waited for
Drowning just to keep score
We always start with good intentions
But lose ourselves along the way
This is the time that we let it go
These are the words that will take us home
Singing the song that's inside us all
If we don't open our eyes we're walking blind
Anchored in anger, we exile ourselves
Bitter blood builds our prison cell
Darker water now fills our lungs
The depths of our heart have blacked the sun
Naked we come, naked we leave
Fools we are, to hold tightly
We are the jail, we are the key
We are free, we are free
This is the time that we let it go
This is the pain we are forced to know
Singing the song that's inside us all
If we just open our eyes
Dubioza kolektiv - "U.S.A."
The grass is always greener
in neighbors' courtyard
I wish to leave this nightmare
go to a Promised Land
Please, take me to your leader
I want my green card
I want to fly over
Like a rocket from the Balkans
I want to start all over
and turn a new page
Forget this dreadful story
Escape the Stone Age
I'm waiting for chance
to get out of the cage
I feel like a slave
on a minimal wage
I am form Bosnia
Take me to America
I really want to see
Statue of Liberty
I can no longer wait
Take me to United States
take me to Golden Gate
I will assimilate
One day, when you reach the end
One day, you will understand
One day, back to roots my friend
No place like a motherland
I hoped I'll find what I need
I'll be free like a bird
Now we're pushed in a ghetto
Like the sheep in a herd
All the promises I heard
Became empty words
Completely disconnected
From the rest of the world
The grass is never greener
in neighbors' courtyard
I want to start all over
Return to No Mans Land
Send greetings to your leader
Don't want your Green Card
I want to fly back
Like a rocket to the Balkans
Voice of Baceprot - God, Allow Me (Please) to Make Music ( Live at Wacken Open Air 2022)
VOB - God, Allow Me (Please) to Make Music
Why today, many perceptions have become toxic?
Why today, many people wear religion to kill the music?
I feel like I am fallin’, washed down, swallowed by the crowd
I'm not the criminal
I'm not the enemy
I just wanna sing a song to show my soul
I'm not the corruptor
I'm not the enemy
I just wanna sing a song to show my soul
God, allow me please to play music
God, allow me please to play music
God, allow me please to play music
God, allow me please to play music
Why today, many perceptions have become toxic?
Why today, idealizations are abusing our mind?
I feel like I’m falling down, in the deep hole of hatred
I'm not the criminal
I'm not the enemy
I just wanna sing a song to show my soul
I'm not the corruptor
I'm not the enemy
I just wanna sing a song to show my soul
God, allow me please to play music
God, allow me please to play music
God, allow me please to play music
God, allow me please to play music
Third John
1 THE elder unto the well-beloved Gaius, whom I love in the truth.
2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.
3 For I rejoiced greatly, when the brethren came and testified of the truth that is in thee, even as thou walkest
in the truth.
4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.
5 Beloved, thou doest faithfully whatsoever thou doest to the brethren, and to strangers;
6 Which have borne witness of thy charity before the church: whom if thou bring forward on their journey after
a godly sort, thou shalt do well:
7 Because that for his name's sake they went forth, taking nothing of the Gentiles.
8 We therefore ought to receive such, that we might be fellow-helpers to the truth.
9 I wrote unto the church: but Diotrephes, who loveth to have the preeminence among them, receiveth us not.
10 Wherefore, if I come, I will remember his deeds which he doeth, prating against us with malicious words: and not
content therewith, neither doth he himself receive the brethren, and forbiddeth them that would, and casteth
them out of the church.
11 Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good, He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth
evil hath not seen God.
12 Demetrius hath good report of all men, and of the truth itself: yea, and we also bear record; and ye know
that our record is true.
13 I had many things to write, but I will not with ink and pen write unto thee:
14 But I trust I shall shortly see thee, and we shall speak face to face. Peace be to thee. Our friends salute thee.
Greet the friends by name.

Daughtry - Heavy is the Crown
Never needed any reason
To find deliverance
Like a cancer running through my veins, oh
It's never gonna give in
See them march like lambs to the slaughter
Toy soldiers line up on the altar
I was never meant to drink that water
They'll remember me, when I'm underground
Heavy is the crown
Never falter, never let them bleed you out
I'll be still standing when they try to bring my castle down
I'll never bow down
Heavy is the crown
When the weight of the world crashing
Pushing you closer to the edge (closer to the edge)
You find a way to get a little bit stronger
To fight off the demons, yeah
See them march like lambs to the slaughter
Toy soldiers line up on the altar
I'll rise, hell or high water
And you'll remember me, when I'm underground
Heavy is the crown
Never falter, never let them bleed you out
I'll be still standing when they try to bring my castle down
I'll never bow down
Heavy is the crown
Everything will fade away
Yeah, nothing in this world is meant to stay
Heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown, oh
Heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown, oh
Heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown, oh
Heavy is the crown
Heavy is the crown
Never falter, never let them bleed you out
I'll be still standing when they try to bring my castle down
I'll never bow down
Heavy is the crown
Heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown, oh (heavy is the crown)
Heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown, oh
Heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown, oh (heavy is the crown)
Heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown, oh
Heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown, oh
Heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown
