Blue October - Congratulations - ft. Imogen Heap

 Blue October - Congratulations 

Is that seat taken 
Congratulations 
Would you like to take a walk with me 

My mind it kind of goes fast 
I try to slow it down for you 
I think I'd love to take a drive 
I want to give you something 
I've been wanting to give to you for years 
My heart 

My heart, my pain won't cover up 
You left me.. hu hu hu hu 
My heart won't take this cover up 
You left me.. hu hu hu hu 

I came to see the light in my best friend 
You seemed as happy as you'd ever been 
My chance of being open was broken 
And now you're Mrs. him. 

My words they don't come out right 
But I'll try to say I'm happy for you 
I think I'm going to take that drive 
I want to give you something 
I've been wanting to give to you for years 
My hearts 

My heart, my pain won't cover up 
You left me.. hu hu hu hu 
My heart 
My heart won't take this cover up 
You left me.. hu hu hu hu 

And I can't change this 
I can never take it back 
But now I can't change your mind 
(You left me) 
And I can't this 
I can never take this back 
But now I can't change your mind 
can't change your mind 
(You left me) 
Can't change you mind 
(You left me) 
(You left me) 
(You left me) 
(You left me) 

Go away 
Make it go away 
Please.

The Band Perry - You Lie

 The Band Perry - You Lie

It ain't complicated, well, I've grown to hate it
I never liked the taste of crow, but baby, I ate it
They tried to warn me, they said that you were ornery
So don't bring me those big brown eyes, and tell me that you're sorry
Well, you might as well throw gasoline on a fire
The way you lie
You lie like a priceless Persian rug on a rich man's floor
Well, you lie like a coon dog baskin' in the sunshine on my porch
The way you lie like a penny in the parkin' lot at the grocery store
It just comes way too natural to you
The way you lie
That ain't my perfume, I bet she had a curfew
You told me you were out with the boys, and baby, I believed you
So why you lookin' so nervous? You know you're gonna deserve this
I oughta kill you right now and do the whole wide world a service
Well, my daddy's gonna straighten you out like a piece of wire
Like a piece of wire, the way you lie
You lie like the man with the slick back hair who sold me that Ford
Well, you lie like the pine tree in the back yard after last month's storm
Well, you lie like a penny in the parkin' lot at the grocery store
It just comes way too natural to you
The way you lie
Well, I'll tell you what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna drive to the big ol' muddy river
I'm gonna park my car in the middle of the mile-long bridge
And then I'm gonna cry-y, well, maybe just a little
Then I'm gonna slip off the ring that you put on my finger
And give it a big ol' fling, and watch it sink
Down, down, down, and there it's gonna lie
Until the Lord comes back around
Because you lie like a priceless Persian rug on a rich man's floor
You lie like a coon dog baskin' in the sunshine on my porch
Well, you lie like a penny in the parkin' lot at the grocery store
It just comes so dang natural to you
The way you lie
The way you lie
Well, it's what you do, it's who you are

Jewel - Upon Meeting the Goddess of Love (full song acoustic)

 Jewel - Upon Meeting the Goddess of Love 


With parted lips you pray a verse
at the altar of the Universe.
With marble skin raven hair
Suddenly the goddess standing there…
Wild things sing in words unknown
she sees into your soul
touches your trembling fear
Reflects your joy like a mirror.
You climb the hill, cathedral spire
You move like wood, and she like fire
The flames rising higher
Is it birth- or funeral pyre?

CHORUS
When she lifts her lips like a chalice
Her body a living palace
You drink deeply from the grail
Flesh on tongue
Living communion
Bow and arrow
The release of union
Into the fire you fell
And you burn 
Burn


Trembling
You ask her why?
with red lips she prophesied
If you long to be open
then your heart is destined to be broken
like smoke you float a spectral trance
the axis tilts it's a cosmic dance
what to do with shattered pieces
to turn the pain to golden fleeces
breath like smoke you breahe her in
where she goes you're following
she frees you of your earthly form
let yourself be transformed


CHORUS
When she lifts her lips like a chalice
Her body a living palace
You drink deeply from the grail
Flesh on tongue
Living communion
Bow and arrow
The ache of union
Into the fire you fell
And you burn 
Burn


She leaves you on the cliff
of your inner precipice
wondering who you'll be now
that the world is broken
open somehow
and you a child newly born
everything beauty, everything torn
on your face, a maddening grin
knowing full well you'll be burnt again


CHORUS
When she lifts her lips like a chalice
Her body a living palace
You drink deeply from the grail
Flesh on tongue
Living communion
Bow and arrow
The release of union
Into the fire you fell
And you burn 
you burn
Burn


We're all changed by love
we're all hurt by love
we're transformed by love
we're all made bigger
we're all carved deeper

we're all changed by love 
we're all changed by love

Bethany Joy Lenz - Leaving Town Alive

Bethany Joy Lenz - Leaving Town Alive 

Spending all your money
Ain't it funny how the time goes by?
First you start believing
Then you're leaving for no reason
And you're wondering why
So till the morning breaks
Go and make your mistakes
Don't be surprised if your head hurts
Life is for the living, the forgiven and for leaving town alive

Whisper in the ways
Watching days and moving on
You wake up every Monday then suddenly it's Sunday
And the week is gone
So till the morning breaks
Go and make your mistakes
Don't be surprised at the sunrise
Life is for the living, the forgiven and for leaving town alive

Oh, do you wonder where it starts
Where it ends
What you find around the bend
Oh, do you wonder where she's from
Where she goes
No one knows
Now and then you wonder
Why you're spending all your money
Ain't it funny how she walks on by?
She had you all believing
Now she's leaving for no reason
And you're wondering why

So till the morning breaks
Go and make your mistakes
Don't be surprised if your heart hurts
Life is for the living, the forgiven and for leaving town alive

Oh, do you wonder where it starts
Where it ends
What you find around the bend
And oh, do you wonder where she's from
Where she goes
No one knows
Now and then

Oh, do you wonder where it starts
Where it ends
What you find around the bend
And do you wonder where she's from
Where she goes
No one knows
Now and then you wonder

Why life is for the living, the forgiven and the leaving town alive
Life is for the living, the forgiven and the leaving town alive

Zechariah Chapter Twelve

 1    THE burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and
    layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him.

2    Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be
    in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem.

3    And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people:  all that burden themselves with
    it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.

4    In that day, saith the LORD, I will smite every horse with astonishment, and his rider with madness:  and I
    will open mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the people with blindness.

5    And the governors of Judah shall say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem shall be my strength
    in the LORD of hosts their God.

6    In that day will I make the governors of Judah like an hearth of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire
    in a sheaf;  and they shall devour all the people round about on the right hand and on the left:  and Jerusalem
    shall be inhabited again in her own place, even in Jerusalem.

7    The LORD also shall save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the 
    inhabitants of Jerusalem do not magnify themselves against Judah.

8    In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem;  and he that is feeble among them at that
    day shall be as David;  and the house of David shall be as God, as the angel of the LORD before them.

9    And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.

10    And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and
    of supplications:  and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as
    one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.

11    In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon.

12    And the land shall mourn, every family apart;  the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart;
    the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart;

13    The family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart;  the family of Shimei apart, and their wives apart;

14    All the families that remain, every family apart, and their wives apart.

Unbroken Reign - A Death Like His

 Unbroken Reign - A Death Like His

Son of God
Delivered to the hands of sinful men
To be crucified
And on the third day rise

Without You
I would be in chains
Without You
I wouldn't breathe for another day

This moment
Is where it all began to
Fade away (Fade away)
Fade away (Fade away)
And our hearts turn
Even when we were still
Fighting with our nature
You proved that you were greater

We are all cleansed by the power of the Resurrection
God walking upon the Earth
I am forgiven
Absolved of all my filth
He bore our sins in His body upon the tree
So take up your cross
Flee from the enemy
Take up your cross
To thyself you must die

This moment
Is where it all began to
Fade away (Fade away)
Fade away (Fade away)
And our hearts turn
Even when we were still
Fighting with our nature
You proved that you were greater

A world undeserving of mercy
A populace proudly devoted to hate
An empire who wished Him the worst kind of pain
He died for them just the same as for you and I
Paid it all, you paid it all, you paid it all
(Paid it all, you paid it all x2)

And our hearts turn
Even when we were still
Fighting with our nature
You proved that you were greater

Father, forgive them, they know not what they do

 Faith No More - Last Cup of Sorrow

This is getting old
And so are you
Everything you know
And never knew
Will run through your fingers
Just like sand
Enjoy it while you can
Like a snake between two stones
It itches in your bones
Take a deep breath and swallow
Your sorrow
Tomorrow
So raise it up and lets propose a toast
To the thing that hurts you most
It's your last cup of sorrow
What can you say?
Finish it today
It's your last cup of sorrow
So think of me
And get on your way
It won't begin
Until you make it end
Until you know the how the where and the when
With a new face you might surprise yourself
Like a snake between two stones
It itches in your bones
Take a deep breath and swallow
Your sorrow
Tomorrow
So raise it up and lets propose a toast
To the thing that hurts you most
It's your last cup of sorrow
What can you say?
Finish it today
It's your last cup of sorrow
So think of me
And get on your way!
You might surprise yourself
You might surprise yourself
You might surprise yourself
You might surprise yourself
You might surprise yourself

Faith No More - Epic

 Faith No More - Epic 

 [Verse 1]
Can you feel it, see it, hear it today?
If you can't, then it doesn't matter anyway
You will never understand it, 'cause it happens too fast
And it feels so good, it's like walking on glass
It's so cool, it's so hip, it's alright
It's so groovy, it's outta sight
You can touch it, smell it, taste it, so sweet
But it makes no difference 'cause it knocks you off your feet

[Chorus]
You want it all, but you can't have it (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Verse 2]
It's cryin', bleedin', lyin' on the floor
So you lay down on it and you do it some more
You've got to share it, so you dare it
Then you bare it and you tear it

[Chorus]
You want it all, but you can't have it (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's in your face, but you can't grab it (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Verse 3]
It's alive, afraid, a lie, a sin
It's magic, it's tragic, it's a loss, it's a win
It's dark, it's moist, it's a bitter pain
It's sad it happened, and it's a shame

[Chorus]
You want it all, but you can't have it (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's in your face, but you can't grab it (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Bridge]
What is it? It's it
What is it? It's it
What is it? It's it
What is it? It's it

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
What is it? It's it
What is it? It's it
What is it? It's it
What is it?

[Chorus]
You want it all, but you can't have it (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's in your face, but you can't grab it (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Outro]
It's it! What is it?
It's it! What is it?
It's it! What is it?
It's it! (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's it! What is it?
It's it! What is it?
It's it! What is it?
It's it! (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's it! What is it?

Second Timothy Chapter Two

1    THOU therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.

2    And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men,
    who shall be able to teach others also.

3    Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

4    No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life;  that he may please him who
    hath chosen him to be a soldier.

5    And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.

6    The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.

7    Consider what I say;  and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.

8    Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:

9    Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds;  but the word of God is not bound.

10    Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which
    is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

11    It is a faithful saying:  For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:

12    If we suffer, we shall also reign with him:  if we deny him, he also will deny us:

13    If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful:  he cannot deny himself.

14    Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not
     about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.

15    Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly
    dividing the word of truth.

16    But shun profane and vain babblings  for they will increase unto more ungodliness.

17    And their word will eat as doth a canker:  of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;

18    Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already;  and
    overthrow the faith of some.

19    Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal,  The Lord knoweth them that are his.
    And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.

20    But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth;
    and some to honour, and some to dishonour.

21    If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet
    for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work.

22    Flee also youthful lusts:  but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord
    out of a pure heart.

23    But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.

24    And the servant of the Lord must not strive;  but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,

25    In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves;  if God peradventure will give them repentance
    to the acknowledging of the truth;

26    And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.

They're shutting down the protest
Yeah we're so on trend
Quick, go grab a picture
Go get that content
You're stealing the attention
But it's a great look
Why do you wanna do good
When you can feel good?
 
I wanna be Futureproof
Come and lift me up until I'm higher, higher
Vulture coming to steal my youth
Throw the pieces down into the fire, fire
 
Liars coming to take my truth
I want to be Futureproof
 
Oh hang on, did I mention
You're on the hit list?
Taking your intention
Now it's irrelevant
There's poison in the water
And we deserve it
The future is a monster
And now it's turning
 
I wanna be Futureproof
Come and lift me up until I'm higher, higher
Vulture coming to steal my youth
Throw the pieces down into the fire, fire
 
Liars coming to take my truth
I wanna be Futureproof

In the ether
 
There's a fire
In the kitchen
In the species
In the creature
 
There's a fire
At the party
In the summer
In the secret
 
There's a fire
In the basement
On the luna
In the dreamer
 
On the water
In the creature
In the body
In the species
 
I wanna be Futureproof
Come and lift me up until I'm higher, higher
Vulture coming to steal my youth
Throw the pieces down into the fire, fire
 
Liars coming to take my truth
I wanna be Futureproof

The Avett Brothers - Head Full of Doubt/Road Full of Promise (Live at Red Rocks)

 The Avett Brothers - Head Full of Doubt/Road Full of Promise 

There's a darkness upon me that's flooded in light
In the fine print they tell me what's wrong and what's right
And it comes in black and it comes in white
And I'm frightened by those that don't see it
 

When nothing is owed or deserved or expected
And your life doesn't change by the man that's elected
If you're loved by someone, you're never rejected
Decide what to be and go be it
 

There was a dream and one day I could see it
Like a bird in a cage I broke in
And demanded that somebody free it
And there was a kid with a head full of doubt
So I'll scream 'til I die
And the last of those bad thoughts are finally out
 

There's a darkness upon you that's flooded in light
And in the fine print They tell you what's wrong and what's right
And it flies by day and it flies by night
And I'm frightened by those who don't see it
 

There was a dream and one day I could see it
Like a bird in a cage I broke in
And demanded that somebody free it
And there was a kid with a head full of doubt
So I'll scream til I die
And the last of those bad thoughts are finally out
 

There was a dream and one day I could see it
Like a bird in a cage I broke in
And demanded that somebody free it
And there was a kid with a head full of doubt
So I'll scream 'til I die
And the last of those bad thoughts are finally out
 

There's a darkness upon me that's flooded in light
In the fine print they tell me what's wrong and what's right
There's a darkness upon me that's flooded in light
And I'm frightened by those who don't see it

It's a mystery to me
We have a greed with which we have agreed
And you think you have to want more than you need
Until you have it all, you won't be free

Society, you're a crazy breed
I hope you're not lonely without me

When you want more than you have, you think you need
And when you think more than you want, your thoughts begin to bleed
I think I need to find a bigger place
Cause when you have more than you think, you need more space

Society, you're a crazy breed
I hope you're not lonely without me
Society, crazy indeed
Hope you're not lonely without me

There's those thinking more or less, less is more
But if less is more, how you keepin score?
Means for every point you make your level drops
Kinda like you're startin' from the top
And you can't do that

Society, you're a crazy breed
I hope you're not lonely without me
Society, crazy indeed
I hope you're not lonely without me 
Society, have mercy on me
I hope you're not angry if I disagree
Society, you're crazy indeed
I hope you're not lonely without me

If you are empty and abstracted and your broken heart is full of rage

Oh what a happy land, oh yeah

In a world of fiction I am a velvet glove 

Oh what a happy land we live in

I am your soul, your resurrection, I am the love

Oh what a happy land, oh yeah

So look out to the west now, see where the devil lies

Oh what a happy land we live in


It’s pharmakon is with you and your empire it is paralysed 

Oh what a happy land, oh yeah

I’ll propagate eternity and seal it with my kiss

Oh what a happy land we live in

So look into the coffin and let me grant your wish

Oh what a happy land, oh yeah
 
No more bad news 
So you can sleep well at night 
And the palace of your mind will be bright

Everything is slowing down yet everything is faster

Oh what a happy land we live in

While everyone is consuming I’ll save you from yourself

Oh what a happy land, oh yeah
 
Upon this world of fiction my love I will bestow

Oh what a happy land we live in

And as we march into the future happiness will grow

No more bad news 
So you can sleep well at night
And the palace of your mind will be bright

Everything is slowing down yet faster 
Consuming us I’ll save you from yourself
My love bestowed upon this world of fiction
March to the future happiness grows
Are you not better off than ever 
Are you not better off right now
When have you felt this way I ask you
When have you felt better off than right now

I am the one to give you life again
I am the one to save your soul, AMEN!

No more bad news………

(Mountains and rainbows , palaces of love)

So you can sleep well at night and palace of your mind will be bright

So you can sleep well at night and palace of your mind will be bright 

Zechariah Chapter Eleven

1    OPEN thy doors, O Lebanon, that the fire may devour thy cedars.

2    Howl, fir tree;  for the cedar is fallen;  because the mighty are spoiled:  howl, O ye oaks of Bashan;  for the
    forest of the vintage is come down.

3    There is a voice of the howling of the shepherds;  for their glory is spoiled:  a voice of the roaring of young lions;
    for the pride of Jordan is spoiled.

4    Thus saith the LORD my God;  Feed the flock of the slaughter;

5    Whose possessors slay them, and hold themselves not guilty:  and they that sell them say, Blessed be the LORD;
    for I am rich:  and their own shepherds pity them not.

6    For I will no more pity the inhabitants of the land, saith the LORD:  but, lo, I will deliver the men every one into
    his neighbour's hand, and into the hand of his king:  and they shall smite the land, and out of their hand I will
    not deliver them.

7    And I will feed the flock of slaughter, even you, O poor of the flock.  And I took unto me two staves;  the one I
    called Beauty, and the other I called Bands;  and I fed the flock.

8    Three shepherds also I cut off in one month;  and my soul lothed them, and their soul also abhorred me.

9    Then said I, I will not feed you;  that that dieth, let it die;  and that that is to be cut off, let it be cut off;  and let
    the rest eat every one the flesh of another.

10    And I took my staff, even Beauty, and cut it asunder, that I might break my covenant which I had made with
    all the people.

11    And it was broken in that day:  and so the poor of the flock that waited upon me knew that it was the word of the LORD.

12    And I said unto them, If ye think good, give me my price;  and if not, forbear.  So they weighed for my price 
    thirty pieces of silver.

13    And the LORD said unto me, Cast it unto the potter:  a goodly price that I was prised at of them.  And I took the
    thirty pieces of silver, and cast them to the potter in the house of the LORD.

14    Then I cut asunder mine other staff, even Bands, that I might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.

15    And the LORD said unto me, Take unto thee yet the instruments of a foolish shepherd.

16    For, lo, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, which shall not visit those that be cut off, neither shall seek the
    young one, nor heal that that is broken, nor feed that that standeth still:  but he shall eat the flesh of the fat,
    and tear their claws in pieces.

17    Woe to the idol shepherd that leaveth the flock!  the sword shall be upon his arm, and upon his right eye:  his
    arm shall be clean dried up, and his right eye shall be utterly darkened.

Muse - Stockholm Syndrome

 Muse - Stockholm Syndrome

I won't stand in your way
Let your hatred grow
And she'll scream
And she'll shout
And she'll pray
And she had a name
Yeah she had a name

And I won't hold you back
Let your anger rise
And we'll fly
And we'll fall
And we'll burn
No one will recall
No one will recall

This is the last time I'll abandon you
And this is the last time I'll forget you
I wish I could

Look to the stars
Let hope burn in your eyes
And we'll love
And we'll hate
And we'll die
All to no avail
All to no avail

This is the last time I'll abandon you
And this is the last time I'll forget you
I wish I could

This is the last time I'll abandon you
And this is the last time I'll forget you
I wish I could
I wish I could

Jack Savoretti - Soldier's Eyes (live Peace One Day)

 Jack Savoretti - Soldier's Eyes

Lately I've been wondering what's been going on
I've been here before but I don't remember when
And every time we get to where we're entering
I feel my beliefs and hopes surrendering
But I know I'll be coming home soon
Yes, I know that I'll be coming home soon
'Cause like the enemies that we are battling
I am nothing but a human alien
Left with nothing else but to keep wandering
Down this path whilst stopping my hands trembling
Because I know that I'll be coming home soon
And yes, I know that I'll be coming home soon, with a soldier's eyes
With a soldier's eyes
With a soldier's eyes
With a soldier's eyes
I've seen inside the devil's dreams where young men die
And graveyards open up their arms for mothers left to cry
I have seen the bleeding and I hate what we've done
But just like every other fool I'll keep marching on
Because I know that I'll be coming home soon
And yes, I know, that I'll be coming home soon with a soldier's eyes
With a soldier's eyes
With a soldier's eyes
With a soldier's eyes

CheVelle - I Get It

 CheVelle - I Get It

So you say you're ignored, as it is
Well, give us your sad, sad trip
 

You're right, I get it
It all makes sense, you're the perfect person
So bright, so wrong
Let's all live in your imaginary life
 

Assumed it's whether
We're right, or wrong
We're doomed and there's plenty for all
 

How dare you catch me counting?
How dare you call at all?
How dare you call this suffering?
How dare you call at all?
 

You're right, I get it
It all makes sense, you're the perfect person
So right, so wrong
Let's all live in your imaginary life
 

Press on these tannins
They'll double in time
The touch of life, once failed to mention so far
 

Of course the law is fountains
Of face to face remorse
Of fast and restless blackmail
Like pent up fetish force
 

You're right, I get it
It all makes sense, you're the perfect person
So right, so wrong
Let's all live in your imaginary life
 

Do you want it enough?
Do you want it at all?
Should you need it at all?
Takes a man to see
 

Do you want it enough?
Do you want it at all?
Should you need it at all?
Do you want it or not?
 

You're right, I get it
It all makes sense, you're the perfect person
So right, so wrong
Let's all live in your imaginary life
Life
Life
Life 

The Revivalists - Heart Stop

The Revivalists - Heart Stop 

Down in this hole, we dug ourselves
I lost your love, it broke my heart
I hate myself, it's all my fault
And the pain don't lie
Cold sweats keep me up at night
I feel it all when the pressure drops
Cause you're the only one that makes my heart stop
Beating me up, tearing me down
Breaking my back, wearin’ me out
Wherever we are, you make my heart stop beatin’
You make my heart stop
Holdin' it in, freakin' me out
Never been so lost as I am now
You make my heart stop beatin’
And it won't stop bleedin’
I changed my mind at seventeen
I'm going back to kerosene
You watched me burnin’ up inside
It's crazy that I'm still alive
And the pain don't lie
Getting high on my alibi
I feel it all when the pressure drops
Cause you're the only one that makes my heart stop
Beating me up, tearing me down
Breaking my back, wearin’ me out
Wherever we are, you make my heart stop beatin’
You make my heart stop
Holdin’ it in, freakin' me out
Never been so lost as I am now
You make my heart stop beatin’
And it won't stop bleedin’
They made it so hard to live
So I've been learning to die
I'm not afraid of the future comin' my way,
I'm over wasting my time
Cause this is my life
And the pain don't lie
Cold sweats keep me up at night
I feel it all when the pressure drops
Cause you're the only one that makes my heart stop
Beating me up, tearing me down
Breaking my back, wearin’ me out
Wherever we are, you make my heart stop beatin’
You make my heart stop beatin’
Holdin’ it in, freakin’ me out
Never been so lost as I am now
You make my heart stop beatin’
And it won't stop bleedin’

Rise Against - Help Is On The Way

 Rise Against - Help Is On The Way

I have my mother's dreams,
I have my father's eyes,
You can't take that from me,
Just go ahead and try.
The cursed city sleeps,
Watch ions in the sky,
Preparing to unleash,
Let loose a mighty cry.

Can nobody save us?
Will anyone try?
The pyre is burning,
The severance is dying.
And all along they say it.

Help is on the way
(They said, they said)
Help is on the way
(They said, they said)
Hold my hand to help see.
Right there in front of me.
Help is on the way.

Five thousand feet below,
As black smoke engulfs the sky,
The ocean floor explodes,
Eleven mothers cry.
My bones all resonate,
A burning lullaby,
You can't take that from me,
Just go ahead and try.

She says that's the shoreline,
With hands in the air,
Her words miss the dark light,
Does anyone care?
And all along they say it.

Help is on the way
(They said, they said)
Help is on the way

(They said, they said)
Hold my hand, to help see.
Right there in front of me.
Help is on the way.

Right here! Right here! [x3]

Choking on the black gold,
Upon which we rely,
We keep actions in the attics,
To see cameras in the sky.

Help is on the way
(They said, they said)
Help is on the way
(They said, they said)

We were told just to sit tight,
Cause somebody will soon arrive.
Help is on the way.
But it never came!
It never came!

Help is on the way
(They said, they said)
Help is on the way
(They said, they said)
Hold my hand, to help see.
Right there in front of me.
Help is on the way.
On the way.

The Killers - Go Your Own Way (Fleetwood Mac cover at House of Blues Anaheim 2025)

 The Killers - Go Your Own Way 

Loving you
Isn't the right thing to do
How can I ever change things
That I feel

If I could
Maybe I'd give you my world
How can I
When you won't take it from me

You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
Go your own way

Tell me why
Everything turned around
Packing up
Shacking up is all you want to do

If I could
Baby I'd give you my world
Open up
Everything's waiting for you

You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
Go your own way

You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it
Another lonely day
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it
Another lonely day

You can go your own way
You can call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way

The Killers - A Dustland Fairytale @ Live from the Royal Albert Hall

 The Killers - A Dustland Fairytale 

Dustland fairytale beginning
Just another white trash
County kiss
Sixty one
Long brown hair and foolish eyes
He looks just like you want him to
Some kind of slick chrome American prince
A blue jean serenade
And Moon River what'd you do to me
And I don't believe you
 

Saw Cinderella in a party dress but
She was looking for a night gown
I saw the devil warping up his hands
He's getting ready for the show down
I saw the minute that I turn away
I got my money on a pawn tonight
 

Change came in disguised of revelation
Set his soul on fire
She said she'd always knew he'd come around
And the decades disappear like sinking
Ships we persevere god gives us hope
But we still fear
We don't know
The mind is poison castle in the sky
Sit stranded vandalized
The draw bridge is closing
 

Saw Cinderella in a party dress but
She was looking for a night gown
I saw the devil warping up his hands
He's getting ready for the show down
I saw the ending were they turned the page
I threw my money and I ran away
Strait to the valley of the great divide
 

And were the dreams roll high
And were the wind don't blow
Out here the good girls die
And the sky won't snow
Out here the bird don't sing
Out here the field don't grow
Out here the bell don't ring
Out here the bell don't ring
Out here the good girls die
 

Now Cinderella don't you go to sleep
Its such a bitter form of refuge
Ah don't you know the kingdoms under siege
And everybody needs you
Is there still magic in the midnight sun
Or did you leave it back in sixty-one
In the of the cadence in the young mans eyes
And were the dreams roll high

Second Timothy Chapter One


1    PAUL, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the promise of life which is in Christ Jesus,

2    To Timothy, my dearly beloved son:  Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

3    I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers with pure conscience, that without ceasing I have remembrance of
    thee in my prayers night and day;

4    Greatly desiring to see thee, being mindful of thy tears, that I may be filled with joy;

5    When I call the remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy
    mother Eunice;  and I am persuaded that in thee also.

6    Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands.

7    For God hath not given us the spirit of fear;  but of power, and love, and of a sound mind.

8    Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner;  but be thou partaker of the
    afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God;

9    Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling not according to our works, but according to his own purpose
    and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,

10    But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought
    life and immortality to light through the gospel:

11    Whereunto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.

12    For he which cause I also suffer these thngs;  nevertheless I am not ashamed:  for I know whom I have believed,
    and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.

13    Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

14    That good thing which was committed unto thee keep by the Holy Ghost which dwelleth in us.

15    This thou knowest, that all they which are in Asia be turned away from me;  of whom are Phygellus
    and Hermongenes.

16    The Lord give mercy unto the house of Onesiphorus;  for he oft refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chains:

17    But, when he was in Rome, he sought me out very diligently, and found me.

18    The Lord grant unto him that he may find mercy of the Lord in that day:  and in how many things he
    ministered unto me at Ephesus, thou knowest very well.
