  Hamilton Cast - Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story 

[WASHINGTON]
Let me tell you what I wish I’d known
When I was young and dreamed of glory
You have no control:

[WASHINGTON AND COMPANY]
Who lives
Who dies
Who tells your story?

[BURR]
President Jefferson:

[JEFFERSON]
I’ll give him this: his financial system is a
Work of genius. I couldn’t undo it if I tried
And I tried

[WASHINGTON AND COMPANY]
Who lives
Who dies
Who tells your story?

[BURR]
President Madison:
[MADISON]
He took our country from bankruptcy to prosperity
I hate to admit it, but he doesn’t get enough credit
For all the credit he gave us

[WASHINGTON AND COMPANY]
Who lives
Who dies
Who tells your story?

[ANGELICA]
Every other founding father's story gets told
Every other founding father gets to grow old

[BURR]
But when you’re gone, who remembers your name?
Who keeps your flame?

[BURR AND MEN]
Who tells your story?
Who tells your story?

[ANGELICA AND WOMEN]
Who tells your story?
Your story?

Time

And I’m still not through
I ask myself, “What would you do if you had more—”

Time

[ELIZA]
The Lord, in his kindness
He gives me what you always wanted
He gives me more—

It’s only a matter of—

Will they tell your story?
Who lives, who dies—

Who tells your story?

YUNGBLUD - When We Die (Can We Still Get High?) [feat. Lil Yachty]

 YUNGBLUD - When We Die (Can We Still Get High?) [feat. Lil Yachty] 

Does heaven have a dealer?
Do they sell the love cheaper than in Hollywood?
As hell is getting colder
I don’t plan on getting older in this neighbourhood
I’ve seen the sunset rise
Through dilated eye
But I can’t keep this going
So when the sunlight sets and the beat has left my chest
Oh I...Think it’s worth knowing.
 
When we die .. tell me can we still get high?
When we die .. tell me can we still get high?
 
If you fall far too deep
Lose yourself in your new life
Head over heels for your new eyes
Let’s name change it your new wife
I wanna know
Do you still keep your promises
And make your time for me
I have a prophecy
I think you can do no wrong.
Hey Hey
It’s a sight to see
When you come back to me
I won’t hold it over your head
To escape the realities
Come and do drugs with me
Come and do drugs with me
Come and do drugs with me
 
(Can we still get high?)
(Can we still get high?)
(Can we still get high?)
(Can we still get high?)
 
When we die .. tell me can we still get high?
When we die .. tell me can we still get high?

Marc Scibilia - Anti-Hero (cover)

Marc Scibilia - Anti-Hero 

[Verse 1]
I have this thing where I get older, but just never wiser
Midnights become my afternoons
When my depression works the graveyard shift, all of the people
I've ghosted stand there in the room

[Pre-Chorus]
I should not be left to my own devices
They come with prices and vices
I end up in crisis
(Tale as old as time)
I wake up screaming from dreaming
One day, I'll watch as you're leaving
'Cause you got tired of my scheming
(For the last time)

[Chorus]
It's me, hi
I'm the problem, it's me
At teatime, everybody agrees
I'll stare directly at the sun, but never in the mirror
It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero

[Verse 2]
Sometimes, I feel like everybody is a sexy baby
And I'm a monster on the hill
Too big to hang out, slowly lurching toward your favorite city
Pierced through the heart, but never killed

[Pre-Chorus]
Did you hear my covert narcissism I disguise as altruism
Like some kind of congressman?
(A tale as old as time)
I wake up screaming from dreaming
One day, I'll watch as you're leaving
And life will lose all its meaning
(For the last time)

[Chorus]
It's me, hi
I'm the problem, it's me (I'm the problem, it's me)
At teatime, everybody agrees
I'll stare directly at the sun, but never in the mirror
It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero

[Bridge]
I have this dream my daughter-in-law kills me for the money
She thinks I left them in the will
The family gathers around and reads it
And then someone screams out
"She's laughing up at us from hell"

[Breakdown]
It's me, hi
I'm the problem, it's me
It's me, hi
I'm the problem, it's me
It's me, hi
Everybody agrees, everybody agrees

[Chorus]
It's me, hi (Hi)
I'm the problem, it's me (I'm the problem, it's me)
At teatime (Teatime), everybody agrees (Everybody agrees)
I'll stare directly at the sun, but never in the mirror
It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero

Thriving Ivory - Angels on the Moon

Thriving Ivory - Angels on the Moon

 

Do you dream, that the world will know your name 

So tell me your name 

Do you care, about all the little things or anything at all? 

I wanna feel, all the chemicals inside I wanna feel 

I wanna sunburn, just to know that I'm alive 

To know I'm alive 



Don't tell me if I'm dying, cause I don't wanna know 

If I can't see the sun, maybe I should go 

Don't wake me cause I'm dreaming, of angels on the moon 

Where everyone you know, never leaves too soon 



Do you believe, in the day that you were born 

Tell me do you believe? 

Do you know, that everyday's the first of the rest of your life 



Don't tell me if I'm dying, cause I don't wanna know 

If I can't see the sun, maybe I should go 

Don't wake me cause I'm dreaming, of angels on the moon 

Where everyone you know, never leaves too soon 



This is to one last day in the shadows 

And to know a brother's love 

This is to New York City angels 

And the rivers of our blood 

This is to all of us, to all of us 



Don't tell me if I'm dying, cause I don't wanna know 

If I can't see the sun, maybe I should go 

Don't wake me cause I'm dreaming, of angels on the moon 

Where everyone you know, never leaves too soon 



You can tell me all your thoughts, about the stars that fill polluted skies 

And show me where you run to, when no one's left to take your side 

But don't tell me where the road ends, cause I just don't wanna know, No I don't wanna know 



Don't tell me if I'm dying 

Don't tell me if I'm dying 

Don't tell me if I'm dying

Thrice - Gnash

 Thrice - Gnash

I'm the teeth that gnash
I'm the trembling ash on your cigarette
I'm the tangled line
That always seems to wind around your neck
I'm the heavy hammer
That you seize to make something new
But all you can do is break
I'm the subtle dagger
Up your sleeve when someone's to blame
For making the same mistakes
I'm the mother tongue
I'm the manic fear when you hit send
I'm the monstrous maze 

Where you've been lost for days and days on end
I'm every fear that steals your sleep
And each precious thing that you can't keep
I'm the teeth that gnash

Death Cab for Cutie - Your Heart is an Empty Room

 Death Cab for Cutie - Your Heart is an Empty Room

Burn it down till the embers smoke on the ground 
And start new when your heart is an empty room 
With walls of the deepest blue 

Home's face: how it ages when you're away 
Spring blooms and you find the love that's true 
But you don't know what now to do 
Cause the chase is all you know
And she stopped running months ago 

And all you see is where else you could be When you're at home
And out on the street Are so many possibilities to not be alone 

The flames and smoke climbed out of every window 
And disappeared with everything that you held dear
But you shed not a single tear for the things that you didn't need 
Cause you knew you were finally free 


Cause all you see is where else you could be, When you're at home
Out on the street are so many possibilities to not be alone 
And all you see is where else you could be,
when you're at home,
There on the street, 
are so many possibilities to not be alone

And that's just perfect, (That's perfect) and that's me (That's me, that's me)

Citizen Soldier - Devil Inside

 Citizen Soldier - Devil Inside

In the middle of the night
It's haunting me
Whisper in the dark
Won't let me sleep
In the middle of the night
It wants my soul
Fighting for my life
But it won't let go

I see an angel
I see the devil
Same old story
That's been told
I don't deserve grace
Fought for forgiveness
But I already
Sold my soul
I will always be a slave
To the voice inside my head
All these monsters deep inside
Will not rest until I'm dead

I the middle of the night 
It's haunting me
Whisper in the dark
Won't let me sleep
In the middle of the night
It wants my soul
Fighting for my life but it won't let go

So throw me in the
Fire x3
Leave me here to 
Burn x3
The devil out of me

Rattle my cage
I bury my rage so
No one else
Will ever see
High on the pain
I will always be a slave
To the darkest part of me
Now I'm running out of time
Get out while you still can
And the moon is getting high
The beast is back again

In the middle of the night
It's haunting me
Whisper in the dark
Won't let me sleep
In the middle of the night
It wants my soul
Fighting for my life
But it won't let go

So throw me in the
Fire x3
Leave me here to
Burn x3
The devil out of me

Oh I swear to you I tried
Disappointment in your eyes
Don't deserve to be set free so
Can you end my misery

In the middle of the night
It's haunting me
Whisper in the dark
Won't let me sleep
In the middle of the night
It wants my soul
Fighting for my life
But it won't let go

So throw me in the
Fire x3
Leave me here to
Burn x3
The devil out of me.

Spencer Sutherland - NONE of this has been about you

 Spencer Sutherland - NONE of this has been about you

I’m still in love,
But I’m going through a lot lately,
I hope you trust my prayers and thoughts daily,
I still want this,
And I know I’ve changed a little bit,
If I admit this,
But I’m afraid that you’d hate me if you knew,
That I’ve become insensitive,
It’s true,
But even if you do,
none of this has been about you,
none of this has been about you,
none of this has been about you,
it may be wrong,
But I won’t give you excuses,
All that I want,
I’m not the one to choose it,
It won’t make it okay,
There’s nothing I can say,
But anyway,
I’m afraid that you would hate me if you knew,
That I’ve become insensitive,
It’s true,
But even if you do,
none of this has been about you,
none of this has been about you,
none of this has been about you,
When I landed in Atlanta you called a little late,
I took to long to answer,
And said I was delayed,
But I never left the gate,
And anyway,
none of this has been about you,
none of this has been about you,
none of this has been about you,
none of this has been about you.

Melissa Barrera - It Won't Be Long Now (In The Heights Motion Picture Soundtrack)

 Melissa Barrera - It Won't Be Long Now

The elevated train by my window doesn't faze me any more
The rattling screams don't disrupt my dreams
It's a lullaby in its way
The elevated train drives everyone insane, but I don't mind, oh no
When I bring back boys, they can't tolerate the noise
And that's okay, 'cause I never let them stay
And one day I'm hopping that elevated train and I'm riding away
It won't be long now
The boys around the way holler at me when I'm walking down the street
Their machismo pride doesn't break my stride
It's a compliment, so they say
The boys around the way holler at me every day, but I don't mind, oh no
If I'm in the mood, it will not be with some dude
Who is whistling 'cause he has nothing to say
Or who's honking at me from his Chevrolet
And one day I'm hopping in a limousine and I'm driving away
It won't be long now
Oh snap, who's that?
Don't touch me, I'm too hot, yes
Qué pasó? Here I go
So dope, y tu lo sabes
No pare, sigue, sigue
Did you see me? Freaky freakit
What a way to begin the weekend
Sonny, anything you want it free, man
And my dearly beloved Dominican Republic
I haven't forgotten you
Gotta see this honey, make a little money
And one day I'll hop Jet Blue
But until that fateful day, I'm grateful I got a destination
I'm running to make it home
And home's what Vanessa's running away from
I'm running to make it home
And home's what Vanessa's running away from
The neighborhood salon is the place I'm working for the moment
As I cut their hair, ladies talk and share
Every day, who's doing who and why
The neighborhood salon doesn't pay me what I wanna be making, but I don't mind
As I sweep the curb, I can hear those turbo engines blazing a trail through the sky
I look up and think about the years gone by
And one day I'm walking to JFK and I'm gonna fly
It won't be long now
Any day

I've seen better days

He sentido cosas todos los días
I've felt things every day

La mañana tiene una manera de cantar una canción triste.
The morning has a way of singing a sad song

Sé que todavía creo en
I know that I still believe in

Cada palabra que he visto
Every word I've seen

Cuando más necesitaba tu canción de amor
When I was most in need of your love song

Mantén la cabeza en alto
Hold your head up high

Mantén la cabeza en alto
Hold your head up high

Las cosas buenas les llegan a los que esperan.
Good things come to those who wait

Las cosas buenas les llegan a los que esperan.
Good things come to those who wait

Algo me está diciendo
Something's telling me

Esto no es lo que parece
This is not what it seems

No veré mis sueños arder por última vez
I will not see my dreams burn down for the last time

Veo cielos soleados sobre mí
I see sunny skies above me

Cuando tus ojos están en mí
When your eyes are on me

Me muestras cómo ver por primera vez.
You show me how to see for the first time

Mantén la cabeza en alto
Hold your head up high

¿Mantendrías la cabeza en alto?
Would you hold your head up high

Las cosas buenas les llegan a los que esperan.
Good things come to those who wait

Las cosas buenas les llegan a los que esperan.
Good things come to those who wait

Ah, y conozco tus planes.
Oh, and I know your plans

Son mejores de lo que jamás entenderé
Are better than I'll ever understand

Las cosas buenas les llegan a los que esperan.
Good things come to those who wait

Las cosas buenas les llegan a los que esperan.
Good things come to those who wait

First Peter Chapter Four

 1    FORASMUCH then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: 
    for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin;

2    That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.

3    For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in 
    lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries:

4    Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you:

5    Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead.

6    For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according
    to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.

7    But the end of all things is at hand:  be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer.

8    And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves;  for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.

9    Use hospitality one to another without grudging.

10    As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold 
    grace of God.

11    If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God;  if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability 
    which God giveth:  that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion
    for ever and ever.  Amen.

12    Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing
    happened unto you:

13    But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings;  that, when his glory shall be revealed, 
    ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.

14    If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye;  for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you:
    on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.

15    But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men's matters.

16    Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed;  but let him glorify God on this behalf.

17    For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God:  and if it first begin at us, what shall the end
    be of them that obey not the gospel of God?

18    And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?

19    Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well
    doing, as unto a faithful Creator.

Spencer Sutherland - Somebody's Gonna Love Me

Spencer Sutherland - Somebody's Gonna Love Me 

V1:
I know I may be dramatic 
Quite the particular taste!
My sense of style, is weird & it’s wild
At least it’s not more of the same 
Under it all, I’m a simple man
With plenty of love left to give 
I'd die for it, it’s true, & if it isn’t you 


Chorus:
Somebody’s gonna love me, I can feel it
T-T-T-tellin you
Somebody’s gonna want me, like they need it
B-B-B-Baby, you
Go your way, I’ll go mine, 
Shot to the heart, & a matter of time 
Somebody’s, gonna love me, gonna love me
Gonna love me….

V2:
I’m overly trepidatious,
But maybe it’s time for a change!
So I roll with the punch, cause I’ve gotta hunch
That I just might be on my way, 
(He just might be on his)
(He just might be on his way!)


Chorus:
Somebody’s gonna love me, I can feel it
T-T-T-tellin you
Somebody’s gonna want me, like they need it
B-B-B-Baby, you
Go your way, I’ll go mine, 
Shot to the heart, & a matter of time 
Somebody’s, gonna love me, gonna love me
Gonna love me…

BR:
When they finally see it
I’ve been here all along 
Don’t you finally get it?
I have yet to be wrong 
(He just might be on his)
(He just might be on his)
(He just might be on his)


Chorus:
Somebody’s gonna love me, I can feel it
T-T-T-tellin you
Somebody’s gonna want me, like they need it
B-B-B-Baby, you
Go your way, I’ll go mine, 
Shot to the heart, & a matter of time 
Somebody’s, gonna love me, gonna love me
Gonna love me…

Vance Joy - We're Going Home (Palau Güell in Barcelona for Splendour XR 2021)

 Vance Joy - We're Going Home

Under the surface you don't know what you'll find
Mmm, until it's your time
No second chances but all we can do is try
Mmm, I made up my mind

I can't see you
But I hear your call
Baby, hold on now
 

We're going home
If we make it or we don't, we won't be alone
When I see your light shine, I know I'm home
If you're waiting all your life, you won't ever go
When I see your light shine, I know I'm home
When I see your light shine, I know I'm home
When I see your light shine

Some things are simple and hard to ignore, they say
Mmm, the truth is like that
We're getting colder, so far from the shore, I say
Mmm, the world is like that

I can't see you
But I hear your call
Baby, hold on now

We're going home
If we make it or we don't, we won't be alone
When I see your light shine, I know I'm home
If you're waiting all your life, you won't ever go
When I see your light shine, I know I'm home
When I see your light shine, I know I'm home
When I see your light shine

There's a place that I
Wanna run with you
Darling, there's a place that I
Wanna run with you

We're going home
If we make it or we don't, we won't be alone
When I see your light shine, I know I'm home
If you're waiting all your life, you won't ever go
When I see your light shine, I know I'm home
When I see your light shine, I know I'm home
When I see your light shine, I know
I'm home
I'm home
When I see your light shine

RAIGN - When It's All Over (Vampire Diaries)

 RAIGN - When It's All Over

Deep into the darkness
We all got lost
Caught out in the rainstorm
Bullets falling fast

Calling to the afterlife
Can you hear us when we cry
Call out to the afterlife
Can you show us how to fly

It's all gone wrong
Heaven hold us
We've lost the sun
Heaven told us
The world was strong
Heaven hold us
Where do we go when it's all over

Come back from the future
For we didn't fall
Can the broken sky unleash
One more sunrise for the dawn

Call out to the afterlife ohohoh
Can you hear us when we cry
It's all gone wrong
Heaven hold us
We've lost the sun
Heaven told us (yeah)
The world was strong
Heaven hold us
Where do we go(go) when it's all over
Where do we go(go) when it's all over
Where do we go(go) when it's all over
Where do we go(go) when it's all over
Where do we go(go) when it's all over

It's all gone wrong
Heaven hold us
We've lost the sun
Heaven told us
The world was strong
Heaven hold us(heaven hold us)
Where do we go oh oh
Where do we go when it's all over

Passenger - Wicked Man's Rest

 Passenger - Wicked Man's Rest

You can say I'm mad you can say I'm crazy
But I'm only as bad as the maker who made me
Sittin' in the darkness lying in the church
Deaf man's silence blind man's search
Tear drop falling memory recalling
Ghost in your dreams in your secret recordings
Mad man's match there's a lump in your throat
Be under your mattress hole in your coat
Singer with the sound down
Winter on the come down
Poets in the overcoat looking for a sun tan
On his birthday prisoner on his first date
Tired of the new wave
I rise to meet you
As your trust is always a shame

All this innocence has turned and lost its way
Retrace the footprints on the path in which I came
I'm the beast and you're the beast in me
(Which way are we going?
The doors close in an hour)
You can say I'm mad you can say I'm crazy
But I'm only as bad as the maker who made me
Needle for the user the pain in your chest
Beggar and the chooser the wicked man's rest
Fear in the stuntman sneer in the playground
Bottle in the hand of a dirty old drunk man
Leaf falling autumn calling
Dark clouds forming
I rise to meet you 
As your trust dissolves to shame
Oh, this innocence has turned and lost its way
Retrace the footprints
Off the path from which I came
I'm the beast in you, the beast in me
Bite my nails
Right down to the skin
Where one trust ends and another lie begins
Patch over holes in my weakened heart
Which angels hold
And devils pull apart
I'm the beast in you
The beast in me
The bitterness, the jealousy
The part of you that never sleeps
(Are you my angel?
Will we walk all night through solitary streets?)
And you hardly can imagine
What you never had before
And the reason that you're given
Still leaves you wanting more
And you hardly can imagine
What you never had before
And the reason that you're given
Still leaves you wanting more
I rise to meet you yeah
As your trust dissolves to shame
Oh, this innocence has turned and lost its way
Retrace the footprints
Off the path from which I came
I'm the beast in you, the beast in me
The bitterness, the jealousy
The part of you that never sleeps

Plumb - In My Arms

  Plumb - In My Arms

Your baby blues
So full of wonder
Your curlicues
Your contagious smile
And as I watch
You start to grow up
All I can do is hold you tight
Knowing clouds will raise up
Storms will race in
But you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down
Waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms
Story books full of fairy tales
Kings and queens and the bluest skies
My heart is torn just in knowing
You'll someday see the truth from lies
Knowing clouds will raise up
Storms will race in
But you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down
Waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms
Castles they might crumble
Dreams may not come true
But you are never all alone
Because I will always
Always love you
Clouds will raise up
Storms will race in
But you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down
Waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms

Jake Bugg - Broken (2013 Nobel Peace Prize Concert)

Jake Bugg - Broken 

I'm waiting for you
For I'm broken down
Coming down this time
For my heart lies
Far and away where they took you down
Let them over to your house
Where I'm broken
Down by the people if they let you breathe
Don't give a damn if you still can't see
Still my heart beats, for you
Have become, all I love
And all I hoped for
But I, must carry on
Always one
Never broken
Run to the lobby where I saw you try
Don't give a damn for your reasons why
Where sophie's down in the valley where the church bells cry
I'll lead them over to your eyes
Woah, I am one
I am one
Pray, story eye
Peace and love
In a future
Bright, sacrifice
Came around, never broken
Down by the people if they let you breathe
Don't give a damn if you still can't see
Traveling a street that I did not go
Lifetime to the winter load
Down in the valley where the church bells cry
I'll lead them over to your eyes
Woah, I am one
Woah, I am one
I am one

Staind - Not Again

Staind - Not Again 

Do you feel like you're falling?
You've taken this step
In front of you is further from the truth
You fall apart in front of me again
Again!

Denial isn't the way to forgiveness
You always swore that I was wrong

[Chorus:]
Not again
No taste for the crow you feed me
Not again
It's not a matter of if I care
Not again
What an intricate web you're weaving
Did it again

So you try not to follow
While the clock fails to sleep
So here we are back where it began
And toe to toe I stand in front of you again
Again

Denial isn't the way to forgiveness
You always swore that I was wrong

[Chorus:]
Not again
No taste for the crow you feed me
Not again
It's not a matter of if I care
Not again
What an intricate web you're weaving
Again and again

[Solo]

[Chorus:]
Not again
No taste for the crow you feed me
Not again
It's not a matter of if I care
Not again
What an intricate web you're weaving
Again and again
Again!
Again!

Coldplay - Death and All of His Friends -- Live In Melbourne

 Coldplay - Death and All of His Friends

All winter, we got carried
Away over on the rooftops let's get married.
All summer, we just hurried
So come over, just be patient, and don't worry.
So come over, just be patient, and don't worry.

So come over, just be patient, and don't worry.
And don't worry.

No, I don't wanna battle from beginning to end;
I don't wanna cycle, recycle revenge;
I don't wanna follow death and all his friends.

No, I don't wanna battle from beginning to end;
I don't wanna cycle, recycle revenge;
I don't wanna follow death and all of his friends...

Thrice - Beyond the Pines

Thrice - Beyond the Pines 

Somewhere down the way, there’s a hidden place that anyone – that all of us – could find.
But all our maps have failed, so venture through the veil and realize these roads are intertwined. Far beyond those walls, gleaming black and white – further than our false schemes of wrong and right – is a field where we can walk, leaving all our names behind. I will meet you there, beyond the pines, templed in twilight or dawn; the light and easy air tracing the lines on our palms. Somewhere down the road is a place that we can go where everyone and everything is
divine. And when we’re all awake, we can finally make an end of these divisions in our minds.
I will meet you there – don’t go to sleep. Our souls and feet both bare – with grass beneath.
The oaths we needn’t swear are vast and deep. Our breath will be our prayer – alone – complete.

Mazzy Star - Fade Into You

 Mazzy Star - Fade Into You

I want to hold the hand inside you
I want to take the breath that's true
I look to you, and I see nothing
I look to you to see the truth

You live your life, you go in shadows
You'll come apart, and you'll go black
Some kind of night into your darkness
Colors your eyes with what's not there

Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you
I think it's strange you never knew

A stranger's light comes on slowly
A stranger's heart without a home
You put your hands into your head
And then smiles cover your heart

Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you
I think it's strange you never knew

Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you
I think it's strange you never knew
I think it's strange you never knew

Rise Against - Tip the Scales

 Rise Against - Tip the Scales

Are we so alone, so distant, so forgotten
As we think ourselves to be?
These are our lives, but did they ever even matter?
Are we worth remembering?

These machines feed on the tears
Of broken lives and dying dreams
We're throwing wrenches in the gears
Our lives will not be lived in vain

When this is all said and done
We spent this life on the run
Judged by the company we keep
(Judged by the company we keep)
Our language buried inside
These lungs that keep us alive
We breathe so selfishly

Promises we plan to break are made in whispered voices
Cause our despair knows many names
We make mistakes but we apologize with roses
We never stopped to smell on the way

These machines feed on the tears
Of broken lives and dying dreams
We're throwing wrenches in the gears
Our lives will not be lived in vain

When this is all said and done
We spent this life on the run
Judged by the company we keep
(Judged by the company we keep)
Our language buried inside
These lungs that keep us alive
We breathe so selfishly

We fell from the sky today
We melt into balls of clay
We sell ourselves everyday
Don't tell me how to live this way (live this way)

Pushed so far to the edge
We teeter just on the brink
You can lead me to the bloodbath
But you can't make me drink

As these machines feed on the tears
Of broken lives and dying dreams
We're throwing wrenches in the gears
Our lives will not be lived in vain
Our lives will not be lived in vain
