The Script - The User's Guide to Being Human

The Script - The User's Guide to Being Human 

Woke up in the future
Don't know where we are
An I can't believe I'm seeing
Robots, flyin’ cars

They're sayin' it's progress
Goodbye to the past
Everything you want
You can have it now you can have it fast

You won't need your day job
But you'll still get paid
But with no purpose we'd be worthless
That’s not how were made

We were made to love
We were made to shine 
We were made just like our maker to create a paradise

So tell me what the hell we're doing
If we're not human beings being human

When there's somethin' broken you need to fix
All the little things we forgot to miss
When you feel so lost, barely gettin' by
Need a User's Guide
Find the one you love, look into their eyes
Nothin' else is real but how you feel inside
Hold onto each other in this crazy life
That's the User's Guide To Being Human

Human being Human
Just Humans Being Human

Being Human being human
Just Humans Being Human

We can miss the moments
If we don’t look up
When did witnessing the magic 
In this life stop bein’ enough

Thinkin’ we're connected
Is a big mistake
Losin’ meanin’, cos these feelings
1's and zer0s can’t replace

An we pray an we pray an we pray
Every day every day every
For a User's Guide for you and I
Cos we still got time

Armin van Buuren feat. Kensington - Heading Up High

  Armin van Buuren feat. Kensington - Heading Up High

See
When you're holding on to all that you can't 
Be
Know that all there is to gain lies
Within arm's reach
For the flaw lies in your head not in your heart
See
How the darkest night will soon
Bring light again

Now we're heading up high
Where no harm will get in our way
Will we ever touch ground again?
Now it's a long way down
Now we're heading up high
Where no harm will get in our way
Will we ever touch ground again?
Now it's a long way down
Now it's a long way down

See
When you're holding on to all but
You can't breathe
Know the dawn lies in your hands
Just let your heart speak
And the darkest light will soon
Burn bright again

Now we're heading up high
Where no harm will get in our way
Will we ever touch ground again?
Now it's a long way down
Now we're heading up high
Where no harm will get in our way
Will we ever touch ground again?
Now it's a long way down
Now it's a long way down

We won't go in, we won't go
Why end it? why end it?
We won't go in, we won't go
Why end it? why end it?

Now we're heading up high
Where no harm will get in our way
Will we ever touch ground again?
Now it's a long way down
Now it's a long way down

We won't go in, we won't go
Why end it? why end it?
We won't go in, we won't go
Why end it? why end it?

Apocalyptica ft. James Hetfield & Rob Trujillo - "One"

  Apocalyptica ft. James Hetfield & Rob Trujillo - "One"

 Spoken Word by James Hetfield:

I can't remember anything
Can't tell if this is true or a dream
Deep down inside I feel to scream
This terrible silence stops me

Now that the war is through with me
I'm waking up, I cannot see
That there's not much left of me
Nothing is real but pain now

Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please, God, wake me
Back in the womb it's much too real
In pumps life that I must feel

But can't look forward to reveal
Look to the time when I'll live
Fed through the tube that sticks in me
Just like a wartime novelty
Tied to machines that make me be
Cut this life off from me
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please, God, wake me

Now the world is gone, I'm just one
Oh God, help me
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please, God, please God, help me, help me

Darkness imprisoning me
All that I see
Absolute horror
I cannot live
I cannot die
Trapped in myself
Body my holding cell

Landmine has taken my sight
Taken my speech
Taken my hearing
Taken my arms
Taken my legs
Taken my soul
Left me with life in hell

Angels & Airwaves - Secret Crowds

If I had my own world
I'd fill it with wealth and desire
A glorious past to admire
And voices of kids out walking dogs,
Birds, planes, cleanest cars

If I had my own world
I'd love it for all that's inside it
There'd be no more wars, death or riots
There'd be no more police, packed parking lots,
Guns, bombs sounding off

If I had my own world
I'd build you an empire
From here to the far lands
To spread love like violence

If I had my own world
I'd build you an empire
From here to the farmlands
To spread love like violence

Let me feel you, carry you higher
Watch our words spread hope like fire
Secret crowds rise up and gather
Hear your voices sing back louder

If I had my own world
I'd show you the life that's inside it
The way that it glows when you find it
The way it survives with it's families,
Friends or it's enemies

Let's make this a new world
I swear you can go if you want to
I know that you have it within you
Inventing the first clean and usable,
God's greatest miracle

If I had my own world
I'd build you an empire
From here to the farmlands
To spread love like violence

If I had my own world
I'd build you an empire
From here to the farmlands
To spread love like violence

Let me feel you, carry you higher
Watch our words spread hope like fire
Secret crowds rise up and gather
Hear your voices sing back louder

Let me feel you carry you higher
Watch our words spread hope like fire
Secret crowds rise up and gather
Hear your voices sing back louder

Let me feel you, carry you higher
Watch our words spread hope like fire
Secret crowds rise up and gather
Hear your voices sing back louder

Let me feel you, carry you higher
Watch our words spread hope like fire
Secret crowds rise up and gather
Hear your voices sing back louder

A peaceful instrumental composition 

Badflower - Snuff

 Badflower - Snuff

[Intro]
Your nails, your teeth, your face, your lies
When I'm with you, I feel like I could die

[Verse 1]
Shut the f--- up and make me f---ing cry
The secret to my heart is not a poem or a line
So quit acting so sweet, I don't want a hug
'Cause my love language is violence, baby, squash me like a bug

[Pre-Chorus]
I like to suffer, I'm not ashamed
I'm into torture and I'm never gonna change
I know you wanna pick me up when you see me on the ground
But, uh, I'll get aroused if you kick me while I'm down

[Chorus]
Oh, if you want it, then you oughta snuff me out
Oh, are you ready for me, ready for me now?

[Verse 2]
Some whips and chains, maybe a shackle or two
Until I'm shaking like Parkinson's from your black leather boots
Paint me with all fifty shades of Grey's Anatomy till I'm happy in agony too
'Cause love is too good to be true (Unless it's you)

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm into pressure, I'm into pain
I need a doctor if I carry on this way
You tell me that you love me, but I don't think you know how
'Cause if you really mean it, then you better kill me now

[Chorus]
Oh, if you want it, then you oughta snuff me out
Oh, are you ready for me, ready for me now?
Oh, if you want it, then you oughta snuff me out
Oh, are you ready for me, ready for me now?

[Bridge]
Yeah, it's bold, reverse the roles
All I do is what I'm told
Make a vow to take me down
Now are you ready for me, ready for me now?
Now are you ready for me, ready for me now?
Now are you ready for me, ready for me now?

[Interlude]
In this part of the song
Badflower intended to insert a short sample of a popular song from the 1990s
But they were unable to get in touch with the copyright holder
So rather than risk litigation
They decided to remove the sample and insert this instead


[Chorus]
Oh, if you want it, then you oughta snuff me out
Oh, are you ready for me, ready for me now, now, now?
Oh, if you want it, then you oughta snuff me out
Oh, are you ready for me, ready for me now?
Oh, if you want it, then you oughta snuff me out
(Are you ready for me, ready for me, ready for me?)
Oh, are you ready for me, ready for me now?

James Chapter One

 1    JAMES, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.

2    My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;

3    Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.

4    But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

5    If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not;  and it
    shall be given him.

6    But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering.  For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the 
    wind and tossed.

7    For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.

8    A double minded man is unstable in al his ways.

9    Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted:

10    But the rich, in that he is made low:  because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away.

11    For the sun is no sooner risen with a burning heat, but it withereth the grass, and the flower thereof falleth,
    and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth:  so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways.

12    Blessed is the man that endureth temptation:  for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life,
    which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.

13    Let no man say when his is tempted, I am tempted of God:  for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither
    tempteth he any man:

14    But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.

15    Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin:  and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.

16    Do not err, my beloved brethren.

17    Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom
    is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.

18    Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.

19    Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:

20    For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.

21    Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted
    word, which is able to save your souls.

22    But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.

23    For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:

24    For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.

25    But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, 
    but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.

26    If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, 
    this man's religion is vain.

27    Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their
    affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.


    James Chapter One -KJV

Jack White - Would You Fight for My Love

 Jack White - Would You Fight for My Love

The last person in the room she hurt
Was the person that the loved the most
Nobody noticed I was down on the rug
I'm gettin' better at becoming a ghost

I know that you want more
But would you fight for my love?
And I've hurt you before
But can you ignore my love?
No walkin' out my backdoor
Lookin' back for my love
I know that you want more
But would you fight for my love?

First John Chapter Three

1    BEHOLD, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God:
    therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.

2    Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be:  but we know that,
    when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

3    And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.

4    Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law:  for sin is the transgression of the law.

5    And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.

6    Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not:  whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.

7    Little children, let no man decieve you:  he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.

8    He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning.  For this purpose the Son of God
    was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

9    Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him:  and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

10    In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil:  whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, 
    neither he that loveth not his brother.

11    For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.

12    Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother.  And wherefore slew he him?  Because his own works
    were evil, and his brother's righteous.

13    Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you.

14    We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren.  He that loveth not his brother
    abideth in death.

15    Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer:  and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.

16    Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us:  and we ought to lay down our lives for
    the brethren.

17    But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion
    from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?

18    My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue;  but in deed and in truth.

19    And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him.

20    For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.

21    Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God.

22    And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things
    that are pleasing in his sight.

23    And this is is commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love
    one another, as he gave us commandment.

24    And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him.  And hereby we know that he
    abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.

The White Stripes - We're Going To Be Friends

 The White Stripes - We're Going To Be Friends

Fall is here, hear the yell
Back to school, ring the bell
Brand new shoes, walking blues
Climb the fence, books and pens
I can tell that we are going to be friends
I can tell that we are going to be friends

Walk with me, Suzy Lee
Through the park and by the tree
We will rest upon the ground
And look at all the bugs we found
Safely walk to school without a sound
Safely walk to school without a sound

Here we are, no one else
We walk to school all by ourselves
There's dirt on our uniforms
From chasing all the ants and worms
We clean up and now it's time to learn
We clean up and now it's time to learn

Numbers, letters, learn to spell
Nouns, and books, and show and tell
Playtime, we will throw the ball
Back to class, through the hall
Teacher marks our height against the wall
Teacher marks our height against the wall
 
And we don't notice any time pass
We don't notice anything
We sit side by side in every class
Teacher thinks that I sound funny
But she likes the way you sing

Tonight I'll dream, while I’m in bed
When silly thoughts go through my head
About the bugs and alphabet
And when I wake tomorrow, I'll bet
That you and I will walk together again

I can tell that we are going to be friends
Yes, I can tell that we are going to be friends

The Offspring - The Kids Aren't Alright

  The Offspring - The Kids Aren't Alright

When we were young the future was so bright (Whoa)
The old neighborhood was so alive (Whoa)
And every kid on the whole damn street (Whoa)
Was gonna make it big and not be beat
Now the neighborhood's cracked and torn (Whoa)
The kids are grown up but their lives are worn (Whoa)
How can one little street
Swallow so many lives?

Chances thrown, nothing's free
Longing for what used to be
Still it's hard, hard to see
Fragile lives, shattered dreams
(Go!)

Jamie had a chance, well she really did (Whoa)
Instead she dropped out and had a couple of kids (Whoa)
Mark still lives at home 'cause he's got no job (Whoa)
He just plays guitar and smokes a lot of pot
Jay committed suicide (Whoa)
Brandon OD'd and died (Whoa)
What the hell is going on?
The cruelest dream, reality

Chances thrown, nothing's free
Longing for what used to be
Still it's hard, hard to see
Fragile lives, shattered dreams
(Go!)

Chances thrown, nothing's free
Longing for what used to be
Still it's hard, hard to see
Fragile lives, shattered dreams

Tiffany - I Think We're Alone Now

 Tiffany - I Think We're Alone Now

[Verse 1]
"Children behave"
That's what they say when we're together
"And watch how you play"
They don't understand
And so we're

[Pre-Chorus]
Running just as fast as we can
Holding on to one another's hand
Trying to get away into the night
And then you put your arms around me
And we tumble to the ground
And then you say

[Chorus]
I think we're alone now
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now
The beating of our hearts is the only sound

[Verse 2]
Look at the way
We gotta hide what we're doing
'Cause what would they say
If they ever knew?
And so we're

[Pre-Chorus]
Running just as fast as we can
Holding on to one another's hand
Trying to get away into the night
And then you put your arms around me
And we tumble to the ground
And then you say

[Chorus]
I think we're alone now (Alone now)
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now (Alone now)
The beating of our hearts is the only sound
I think we're alone now (Alone now)
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now (Alone now)
The beating of our hearts is the only sound

[Pre-Chorus]
Running just as fast as we can
Holding on to one another's hand
Trying to get away into the night
And then you put your arms around me
And we tumble to the ground
And then you say


[Chorus]
I think we're alone now
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now
The beating of our hearts is the only sound
I think we're alone now
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now
The beating of our hearts is the only sound
I think we're alone now (Alone now)
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now (Alone now)
Just you and me the only sound now
I think we're alone now (Alone now)
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now (Alone now)
The beating of our hearts is the only sound
I think we're alone now

 Noah Kahan with Lewis Capaldi - Northern Attitude

Breathin' in, breathin' out
How you been? You settled down?
You feelin' right? You feelin' proud?
How are your kids? Where are they now?
 
You build a boat, you build a life
You lose your friends, you lose your wife
You settle in to routine
Where are you? What does it mean?
 
If I get too close
And I'm not how you hoped
Forgive my northern attitude
Oh, I was raised out in the cold
If the sun don't rise
'Til the summertime
Forgive my northern attitude
Oh, I was raised on little light
 
Bought some shit, you search online
You're gettin' lost, you're gettin' high
All alone, late in life
Scared to live, scared to die
 
You build a boat, you build a life
You lose your kids, you lose your wife
You settle down, you're feelin' lost
You're gettin' stoned, then kickin' rocks
 
If I get too close
And I'm not how you hoped
Forgive my northern attitude
Oh, I was raised out in the cold
If the sun don't rise
'Til the summertime
Forgive my northern attitude
Oh, I was raised on little light
 
If you get too close
And I'm not how you hoped
Forgive my northern attitude
Oh, I was raised out in the cold
If the sun don't shine
'Til the summertime
Forgive my northern attitude
Oh, I was raised on little light

Zephaniah Chapter Three

 1    WOE to her that is filthy and polluted, to the oppressing city!

2    She obeyed not the voice;  she received not correction,  she trusted not in the LORD;  she drew not near to her God.

3    Her princes within her are roaring lions;  her judges are evening wolves;  they gnaw not the bones till the morrow.

4    Her prophets are light and treacherous persons:  her priests have polluted the sanctuary, they have done 
    violence to the law.

5    The just LORD is in the midst thereof;  he will not do iniquity:  every morning doth he bring his judgment to light,
    he faileth not;  but the unjust knoweth no shame.

6    I have cut off the nations:  their towers are desolate;  I made their streets waste, that none passeth by:  their cities
    are destroyed, so that there is no man, that there is none inhabitant.

7    I said, Surely thou wilt fear me, thou wilt receive instruction;  so their dwelling should not be cut off, howsoever
    I punished them:  but they rose early, and corrupted all their doing.


8    Therefore wait ye upon me, saith the LORD, unto the day that I rise up to the prey:  for my determination is to gather
    the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce anger:
    for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.

9    For then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they may call upon the name of the LORD, to serve him
    with one consent.

10    From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia my suppliants, even the daughter of my dispersed, shall bring mine offering.

11    In that day shalt thou not be ashamed for all thy doings, wherein thou hast transgressed against me:  for then
    I will take away out of the midst of thee them that rejoice in thy pride, and thou shalt no more be haughty 
    because of my holy mountain.

12    I will also leave in the midst of thee an afflicted and poor people, and they shall trust in the name of the LORD.


13    The remnant of Israel shall not do iniquity, nor speak lies;  neither shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth:
    for they shall feed and lie down, and none shall make them afraid.


14    Sing, O daughter of Zion;  shout, O Israel;  be glad and rejoice with all the heart, O daughter of Jerusalem.

15    The LORD hath taken away thy judgments, he hath cast out thine enemy:  the king of Israel, even the LORD
    is in the mist of thee:  thou shalt not see evil any more.

16    In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem, Fear thou not:  and to Zion, Let not thine hands be slack.

17    The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty;  he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy;  he will rest
    in his love, he will joy over thee with singing.

18    I will gather them that are sorrowful for the solemn assembly, who are of thee, to whom the reproach of it was a burden.

19    Behold, at the time I will undo all that afflict thee:  and I will save her that halteth, and gather her that was driven out;
    and I will get them praise and fame in every land where they have been put to shame.

20    At that time will I bring you again, even in the time that I gather you:  for I will make you a name and a praise
    among all people of the earth, when I turn back your captivity before your eyes, saith the LORD.

They just have to go, 'cause they don't know wack
So while you fill the streets, it's appealing to see
And you won't get out the county 'cause you're damned and free
You got a new horizon, its ephemeral style
A melancholy town where we never smile
And all I wanna hear is the message beep
My dreams, they got her kissing 'cause I don't get to sleep, no

Windmill, windmill for the land

Kensington - Riddles

Kensington - Riddles 

Get it now
Tell me how to get it now
To hold it in or let it out
Tell me to go, or stay

Headed now
Show me where we're headed now
If only I'd have read the signs
I wouldn't be here going to waste

I really don't know oh, lost it a little
Don't go, must be a riddle, don't you know
Oh, lost in your riddles
Lost in your riddles

Where we will go, we'll be lost in the middle
Where we will go, I'll be lost in your riddles

Better now
Tell me is it better now
To keep you right here by my side
Or have you like smoke, to fade

Settle down
If only I could settle down
I know that I'd have read the lines
And wouldn't be here going to waste

But I really don't know oh, lost it a little
Don't go, must be a riddle
Don't you know oh, I'm lost in your riddles
Lost in your riddles

But I really want to know oh, lost it a little
Don't go, must be a riddle
Don't you know oh, I'm lost in your riddles
Lost in your riddles

Where we will go, we'll be lost in the middle
Where we will go, I'll be lost in your riddles
Where we will go, we'll be lost in the middle
Where we will go, I'll be lost in your riddles
Where we will go, we'll be lost in the middle
Where we will go, I'll be lost in your riddles
Where we will go, we'll be lost in the middle
Where we will go, I'll be lost in your riddles

Firewoodisland - Just Human After All

 Firewoodisland - Just Human After All

Don't eat yourself up, You're probably not that tasty
Don't rip your heart out, That's just being lazy
In the bottom of it all, there's no further you can fall
We're just human after all

Please, keep your chin up, no man is an island
trapped inside the rough, an unpolished diamond
In the midst of difficulties, lies an opportunity
We're Just human now you see

Please, dare to reach out
A hand into the dark
To pull another
Reckless hand into the light
And not because it's right or wrong

A fragile moment - heals a broken nerve
A humble action - shapes something new 
We're Just human, me and you

Goldfinger - 99 Red Balloons

  Goldfinger - 99 Red Balloons

 You and I in a little toy shop
buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got
Set them free at the break of dawn
'Til one by one, they were gone
Back at base, bugs in the software
Flash the message, "Something's out there"
Floating in the summer sky
99 red balloons go by.

99 red balloons floating in the summer sky
Panic bells, it's red alert
There's something here from somewhere else
The war machine, it springs to life
Opens up one eager eye
Focusing it on the sky
As 99 red balloons go by.


Ninety-nine decisions street

Ninety-nine ministers meet

To worry, worry, super scurry

Call out the troops now in a hurry

This is what we've waited for

This is it, boys, this is war

The President is on the line

As ninety-nine red balloons go by



Neunundneunzig Kriegsminister

Streichholz und Benzinkanister

Hielten sich f?r schlaue Leute

Witterten schon fette Beute

Riefen: Krieg und wollten Macht

Mann, wer h?tte das gedacht?

Da? es einmal so weit kommt

Wegen neunundneunzig Luftballons

Neunundneunzig Luftballons



Ninety-nine dreams I have had

And every one a red balloon

It's all over, and I'm standing pretty

In the dust that was a city

I could find a souvenir

Just to prove the world was here

Here it is, a red balloon

I think of you and let it go

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  German translation (from Google translations):

99 Secretary of War
  Matches and gasoline canisters
  Professing themselves to be smart people
  Already weathered fat and easy prey
  Shouted the war and wanted power
  Man who would have thought
  That even if it comes
  Because of 99 balloons

Phoebe Bridgers - I Can't Wait

Phoebe Bridgers - I Can't Wait 

Baby, baby if you leave me 
Can you take me with you 
I can sit in the back seat 
Sometimes when the night is quiet 
I’ll turn all the lights on, like the end of the movie
 
I can’t wait, but I’m waiting 
I’m still up, but I’m fading 

Not so slowly getting older 
California sober 
I live by the water 
Go dancing with my understudy 
Could be anybody 
Make me an offer 
I’m not good, but I’m better 
Missed my cue but whatever 
It’s now or never 

All my life 
Side by side 
Hyde Jekyll Hyde 
Finally together 
You can change your mind 
But you can’t change mine 
Hyde Jekyll Hyde 
You and I forever 

Walking early in the morning 
While you’re still sleeping 
And the credits are rolling 
I don’t know why I’m crying 
Until we’re dead or die trying

Hosea Chapter Fourteen

1    O ISRAEL, return unto the LORD thy God;  for thou hast fallen by thine iniquity.

2    Take with you words, and turn to the LORD:  say unto him, Take away all iniquity, and receive us graciously:
    so will we render the calves of our lips.

3    Asshur shall not save us;  we will not ride upon horses:  neither will we say any more to the work of our hands,  
    Ye are our gods:  for in thee the fatherless findeth mercy.


4    I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely;  for mine anger is turned away from him.

5    I will be as the dew unto Israel:  he shall grow as the lily, and cast forth his root as Lebanon.

6    His branches shall spread, and his beauty shall be as the olive tree, and his smell as Lebanon.

7    They that dwell under his shadow shall return;  they shall revive as the corn, and grow as the vine:  the scent
    thereof shall be as the wine of Lebanon.

8    Ephraim shall say, What have I to do any more with idols?  I have heard him, and observed him:  I am like a green 
    fir tree.  From me is thy fruit found.

9    Who is wise, and he shall understand these things?  prudent, and he shall know them?  for the ways of the 
    LORD are right, and the just shall walk in them:  but the transgressors shall fall therein.

    Hosea Chapter Fourteen - KJV

First John Chapter Two

1    MY little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not,  And if any man sin, we have an advocate
    with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:

2    And he is the propitiation for our sins:  and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world,

3    And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.

4    He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.

5    But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected:  hereby know we that we are in him.

6    He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.

7    Brethren, I write no new commandment unto you, but an old commandment which ye had from the 
    beginning.  The old commandment is the word which ye have heard from the beginning.

8    Again, a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true in him and in you:  because the darkness
    is past, and the true light now shineth.

9    He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now.

10    He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.

11    But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not wither he goeth,
    because that darkness hath blinded his eyes.

12    I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake.

13    I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning.  I write unto you, young men,
    because ye have overcome the wicked one.  I write unto you, little children, because ye have known the Father.

14    I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have have known him that is from the beginning.  I have 
    written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome
    the wicked one.

15    Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world.  If any man love the world, the love of the Father
    is not in him.

16    For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father,
    but is of the world.

17    And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof:  but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.

18    Little children, it is the last time:  and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many 
    antichrists;  whereby we know that it is the last time.

19    They went out from us, but they were not of us:  for if they had been of us, they would not doubt have
    continued with us:  but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.

20    But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things.

21    I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth.

22    Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ?  He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.

23    Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father:  [but] he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.

24    Let that therefore abide in you, which ye have heard from the beginning.  If that which ye have heard
    from the beginning shall remain in you, ye also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father.

25    And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even eternal life.

26    These things have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you.

27    But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you:
    but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you,
    ye shall abide in him.

28    And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.

29    If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousenss is born of him.

The Warning - You Oughta Know!! Cover SiriusXm (Alanis Morissette)

 The Warning - You Oughta Know!!

I want you to know that I'm happy for you
I wish nothing but the best for you both

An older version of me, 
is she perverted like me?
Would she go down on you in a theatre?

Does she speak eloquently?
 And would she have your baby?
I'm sure she'd make a really excellent mother

'Cause the love that you gave that we made
Wasn't able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no

And every time you speak her name
Does she know how you told me
You'd hold me until you died?
 'Til you died
But you're still alive

And I'm here to remind you
Of the mess you left when you went away
It's not fair to deny me
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
You, you, you oughta know

You seem very well, things look peaceful
I'm not quite as well, I thought you should know

Did you forget about me Mr. Duplicity?
I hate to bug you in the middle of dinner

It was a slap in the face how quickly I was replaced
And are you thinkin' of me when you f--- her?

'Cause the love that you gave that we made
Wasn't able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no
And every time you speak her name
Does she know how you told me
You'd hold me until you died? 'Til you died
But you're still alive

And I'm here to remind you
Of the mess you left when you went away
It's not fair to deny me
Of the cross I bear
that you gave to me
You, you, you oughta know

'Cause the joke that you laid in the bed that was me
And I'm not gonna fade as soon as you close your eyes
And you know it

And every time I scratch my nails
Down someone else's back I hope you feel it
Well, can you feel it?

Well, I'm here to remind you
Of the mess you left when you went away
It's not fair to deny me
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
You, you, you oughta know

Why I'm here to remind you
Of the mess you left when you went away
It's not fair to deny me
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
You, you, you oughta know

Rocket Science - Burn in Hell

 Rocket Science - Burn in Hell

 I was dancing like a crazy man
The record played my favourite sound
Said, "Girl you're too damn cute"
She said, "I prefer a man in a Sunday suit"

You know, I like to burn in hell
Yeah, I've got my soul to sell

The car was hot but my mind was steady
The boat was hot but the night was heavy
I said, "Girl you make me feel so good"
And said "I'm just bad with the firey burn"

You know, I like to burn in hell
Ah yeah, I got my soul to sell

Burn in hell!
Wow!

Go!

I was feelin' like a stupid top
The people yellin' and they make me stop
The walls lowered and they quivered with bugs
Y'know the bad flew away when we made love

Yeah, I like to burn in hell
Yeah, I've got my soul to sell

 Burn in hell!
Wow!

Go, go, go, wooow!

Burn in hell, burn in hell, burn in hell
Woow, look out!

Oh wow!

 

Mac Glocky - If CheVelle wrote "Somebody That I Used to Know" by Gotye

 Mac Glocky - Somebody That I Used to Know 

 Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
Told myself that you were right for me
But felt so lonely in your company
But that was love and it's an ache I still remember

You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
Like resignation to the end
Always the end
So when we found that we could not make sense
Well you said that we would still be friends
But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over

But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened
And that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger
And that feels so rough
You didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records
And then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
But had me believing it was always something that I'd done
And I don't wanna live that way
Reading into every word you say
You said that you could let it go 
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know...

But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened
And that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger
And that feels so rough
You didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records
And then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

I used to know
That I used to know

Somebody...

Rocket Science - Being Followed

  Rocket Science - Being Followed

I'm being followed by someone I don't know
He's in the shadows, I see him below
He's got weird eyes, you know, he looks like a freak
He's a man I would not like to meet

I've got these tingles up and down my spine
I feel his stare, he's right behind
I turn 'round fast just to see him clear
But all I find is the shadowy air

He's in my mind, didn't do no crime
He wants to bring me down just for being the clown
You know he walks right behind, he only talks in rhyme
He's really got me down, now that I've been found

He's my shadow man
Shadow man, shadow man, shadow man

I'm being followed by someone with a smile
He sneered at me back over half a mile
He's pigeon-toed, you know, he walks with a limp
I fear the worst, I can sense his grip

He's moving in so now I have to run
His icy eyes cut through me like a gun
I shed a tear as his hand meets my neck
I turn the corner, I'm away to the left


He's in my mind, didn't do no crime
He wants to bring me down just for being the clown
You know he walks right behind, he only talks in rhyme
He's really got me down, now that I've been found

He's my shadow man
Shadow man, shadow man, shadow man

Oh, c'mon!
