Saosin – You're Not Alone (Live @ Warped Tour 2025)

Saosin – You're Not Alone

It's just like him
To wander off in the evergreen park
Slowly searching
For any sign of the ones he used to love
He says he's got nothing left to live for
(He says he's got nothing left)
And this time, I think you'll know
You're not alone
There is more to this, I know
You can make it out
You will live to tell
She's just like him
Spoiled rotten, confused by the lies she's been fed
And she's searching for no one (but herself)
Her eyes turn to green, and she seems to be happy
That she is here
And this time I think you'll know
You're not alone
There is more to this, I know
You can make it out
You will live to tell
You're not alone
There is more to this, I know
You can make it out
(There is more to know)
We're not alone
There is more to this, I know
You can make it out
You will live to tell
(So tell me)
You're not alone
There is more to this, I know
You can make it out (make it out)
You will live to tell (live to tell)
You're not alone
There is more to this, I know (and I know)
You can make it out
You will live to tell
You are not alone
You're not, you're not alone

Alex Warren - Burning Down (Alex’s Version)

Burning Down (Alex’s Version)

I guess you never know
Someone you think you know
Can't see the knife when you're too close too close
It scars forever when
Someone you called a friend
shows you the truth can be so cold so cold

I wiped the dirt off your name
With the shirt off my back
I thought that you'd do the same
But you didn't do that

You said I'm the one who's wanted
For all the fires you started
You knew the house was burning down
I had to get out

You led your saints and sinners
And fed ‘em lies for dinner
You knew the house the burning down
And look at you now
(And look at you now)

How do you sleep at night?
No one to hide behind
Betrayed every alibi you had you had

You had every chance to make amends
‘stead you got drunk on bitterness
And you still claim that you're innocent it's sad

That you said I'm the one who's wanted
For all the fires you started
You knew the house was burning down
I had to get out

You led your saints and sinners
And fed ‘em lies for dinner
You knew the house was burning down
(And look at you now)

Used to tell you’d pray for me
You were praying for my downfall
You were digging a grave for me
We were sharing the same four walls
Used to tell me you’d pray for me
You were praying for my downfall
You were digging a grave for me
We were sharing the same four walls

And you said I'm the one who's wanted
For all the fires you started
You knew the house was burning down
I had to get out

You led your saints and sinners
And fed ‘em lies for dinner
You knew the house was burning down

Used to tell you’d pray for me
You were praying for my downfall
You were digging a grave for me
We were sharing the same four walls
Used to tell me you’d pray for me
You were praying for my downfall
You were digging a grave for me
We were sharing the same four walls

And you

"Amazing Grace" : Tori Kelly x Jon Batiste : UNREHEARSED --The Late Show with Stephen Colbert

"Amazing Grace" : Tori Kelly x Jon Batiste

Amazing grace! how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch; like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
2
’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!
3
The Lord hath promised good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures.
4
When we’ve been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we first begun.

The last original verse;

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, who call'd me here below,
Will be forever mine

has been replaced with the more well-known final verse that starts; "When we've been there ten thousand years". This last verse was added to a version of "Amazing Grace" by Harriet Beecher Stowe, as it appears in her novel "Uncle Tom's Cabin".

Amazing Grace was written by Rev. John Newton (July 24, 1725 -- Dec. 21, 1807) for a sermon he preached on January 1, 1773. At the time Rev. Newton was writing a new hymn for each of his sermons he preached.

Tracy Chapman - Baby Can I Hold You (Live)

Sorry
Is all that you can't say
Years gone by and still
Words don't come easily
Like sorry like sorry

Forgive me
Is all that you can't say
Years gone by and still
Words don't come easily
Like forgive me forgive me

But you can say baby
Baby can i hold you tonight
Maybe if i told you the right words
At the right time you'd be mine

I love you
Is all that you can't say
Years gone by and still
Words don't come easily
Like i love you i love you

Lewis Capaldi: Survive -- The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon

Lewis Capaldi - Survive

How long ‘til it feels
Like the wounds finally starting to heal
How long ‘til it feels
Like I’m more than a spoke in a wheel

Most nights I fear
That I’m not enough
I’ve had my share of Monday mornings when I can’t get up
But when hope is lost
And I come undone

I swear to God I’ll survive
If it kills me to
I’m gonna get up and try
If it’s the last thing I do
I’ve still got something to give
Though it hurts sometimes
I’m gonna get up and live
Until the day that I die
I swear to God I’ll survive

How long ‘til you know
That in truth you know nothing at all
How far will you go
To get back to the place you belong

Most nights I fear
That I’m not enough
But I refuse to spend my best years rotting in the sun
So when hope is lost
And I come undone

I swear to God I’ll survive
If it kills me to
I’m gonna get up and try
If it’s the last thing I do
I’ve still got something to give
Though it hurts sometimes
I’m gonna get up and live
Until the day that I die
I swear to God I’ll survive

I swear to God I’ll Survive

I swear to God I’ll survive
If it kills me to
I’m gonna get up and try
If it’s the last thing I do
I’ve still got something to give
Though it hurts sometimes
I’m gonna get up and live
Until the day that I die
I swear to God I’ll survive

First Thessalonians Chapter Two

1 FOR yourselves, brethren know our entrance in unto you, that it was not in vain:

2 But even after that we had suffered before, and were shamefully entreated, as ye know,
at Philippi, we were bold in our God to speak unto you the gospel of God with much contention.

3 For our exhortation was not of deceit, nor of uncleanness, nor in guile:

4 But as we were allowed of God to be put in trust with the gospel, even so we speak; not as
pleasing men, but God, which trieth our hearts.

5 For neither at any time used we flattering words, as ye know, nor a cloak of covetousness;
God is witness:

6 Nor of men sought we glory, neither of you, nor yet of others, when we might have been
burdensome, as the apostles of Christ.

7 But we were gentle among you even as a nurse cherisheth her children:

8 So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted unto you,
not the gospel of God only, but our own souls, because ye were dear unto us.

9 For ye remember, brethren, our labour and travail: for labouring night and day, because we
would not be chargeable unto any of you, we preached unto you the gospel of God.

10 Ye are witnesses, and God also, how holily and justly and unblameably we behaved ourselves
among you that believe:

11 As ye know how we exhorted and comforted and charged every one of you, as a father doth his children,

12 That ye would walk worthy of God, who hath called you unto his kingdom and glory.

13 For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God

which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God,

        which effectually worketh also in you that believe.

14 For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judaea are in Christ Jesus:
for ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the Jews:

15 Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they
please not God, and are contrary to all men:

16 Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins alway:
for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.

17 But we, brethren, being taken from you for a short time in presence, not in heart, endeavoured the
more abundantly to see your face with great desire.

18 Wherefore we would have come unto you, even I Paul, once and again; but Satan himself hindered us.

19 For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are not even ye in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ
at his coming?

20 For ye are our glory and joy.


First Thessalonians Chapter Two - KJV

The Raconteurs – Steady, As She Goes

Find yourself a girl and settle down
Live a simple life in a quiet town

Steady as she goes (Steady as she goes)
Steady as she goes (Steady as she goes)
So steady as she goes

Your friends have shown a kink in the single life
You've had too much to think, now you need a wife

Steady as she goes (Steady as she goes)
So steady as she goes (Steady as she goes)

Well here we go again
You've found yourself a friend that knows you well
But no matter what you do
You'll always feel as though you tripped and fell

So steady as she goes

When you have completed what you thought you had to do
And your blood's depleted to the point of stable glue
Then you'll get along
Then you'll get along

Steady as she goes (Steady as she goes)
So steady as she goes (Steady as she goes)

Well here we go again
You've found yourself a friend that knows you well
But no matter what you do
You'll always feel as though you tripped and fell

So steady as she goes
Steady as she goes

Settle for a world, neither up or down
Sell it to the crowd that has gathered 'round
Settle for a girl, neither up or down
Sell it to the crowd that has gathered 'round

Alanis Morissette - Thank U

How ‘bout getting off of these antibiotics
How ‘bout stopping eating when I'm full up
How ‘bout them transparent dangling carrots
How ‘bout that ever elusive "could have"

Thank you, India
Thank you, terror
Thank you, disillusionment
Thank you, frailty
Thank you, consequence
Thank you, thank you, silence

How ‘bout me not blaming you for everything
How ‘bout me enjoying the moment for once
How ‘bout how good it feels to finally forgive you
How ‘bout grieving it all one at a time

Thank you, India
Thank you, terror
Thank you, disillusionment
Thank you, frailty
Thank you, consequence
Thank you thank you silence

The moment I let go of it
Was the moment I got more than I could handle
The moment I jumped off of it
Was the moment I touched down

How ‘bout no longer being masochistic
How ‘bout remembering your divinity
How ‘bout unabashedly bawling your eyes out
How ‘bout not equating death with stopping

Thank you India
Thank you Providence,
Thank you disillusionment
Thank you nothingness
Thank you clarity
Thank you thank you silence...

Avril Lavigne - My Happy Ending

You were everything, everything that I wanted (that I wanted)
We were meant to be, supposed to be but we lost it (we lost it)
And all of the memories, so close to me, just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...
So much for my happy ending
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...

Jewel - Who Will Save Your Soul

People living their lives for you on T.V.
They say they're better than you and you agree
He says "Hold my calls from behind those cold brick walls"
Says "Come here boys, there ain't nothing for free"
Another doctor's bill, a lawyer's bill
Another cute cheap thrill
You know you love him if you put in your will but

Who will save your soul when it comes to the flowers now
Huh huh who will save your soul after all the lies that you told, boy
And who will save your souls if you won't save your own?

We try to hustle them, try to bustle them, try to cuss them
The cops want someone to bust down on Orleans Avenue
Another day, another dollar, another war, another tower
Went up where the homeless had their homes
So we pray to as many different Gods as there are flowers
We call religion our friend
We're so worried about saving our souls
Afraid that God will take his toll
That we forget to begin but

Who will save your soul when it comes to the flowers now
Huh huh who will save your souls after all the lies that you told, boy
And who will save your souls if you won't save your own?

Some are walking, some are talking, some are stalking and kill
You got social security, but it doesn't pay your bills
There are addictions to feed and there are mouths to pay
So we bargain with the devil, so evil, careful do they say
That you love them take your money and run
Say it's been swell, sweetheart, but it was just one of those things
Those flings, those strings you've got to cut
So get out on the streets, girls, and bust your butts

Who will save your soul when it comes to the flowers now
Huh huh who will save your soul after all the lies that you told, boy
And who will save your soul if you won't save your own?

Maggie Rogers - Don't Forget Me

My friend Sally’s getting married
and to me that sounds so scary
I’m still trying to clean up my side of the street

Can’t imagine what would happen
cause I’m still acting out of habit
Hoping dirty words just don’t escape my teeth

Oh and every time I try just a little
Promise that I’ll meet in the middle
I always find my way back to my feet

So close the door and change the channel
Give me something I can handle
A good lover or someone that’s nice to me
Take my money, wreck my Sundays
Love me til your next somebody
Oh but promise me that when it’s time to leave
Don’t forget me

Don’t forget me

My friend Molly’s got a guy she
swears to go could be her family
Says he’s got the greenest eyes you’ve ever seen

But it's crazy all the days she spends
just following him to parties
She seems happy oh but that’s not love to me

Oh but every time I try just a little
Promise that I’ll meet in the middle
I always my find my way back to my feet

So close the door and change the channel
Give me something I can handle
A good lover or someone that’s nice to me
Take my money, wreck my Sundays
Love me til your next somebody
Oh and promise me that when it’s time to leave
Don’t forget me

Don’t forget me

And maybe I’m dead wrong
Maybe I was bitter from the winter all along
Maybe there’s a stranger standing, holding out for love, just waiting
On the next street
Just for me
Oh just for me

So close the door and change the channel
Give me something I can handle
A good lover or someone that’s nice to me
Take my money, wreck my Sundays
Love me til your next somebody
Oh but promise me that when it’s time to leave
Oh won’t you promise me that when it's time to leave
Don’t forget me

Don’t forget me

Pearl Jam - Daughter

(You guys ready?)
Alone, listless
Breakfast table in an otherwise empty room
Young girl, violence
Center of her own attention
The mother reads aloud, child tries to understand it
Tries to make her proud
The shades go down, it's in her head
Painted room, can't deny there's something wrong
Don't call me daughter, not fit to
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me daughter, not fit to
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me
She holds the hand that holds her down
She will rise above
Oooh ooh
Don't call me daughter, not fit to
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me daughter, not fit to be
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me daughter, not fit to
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me daughter, not fit to be
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me
The shades go down
The shades go down
The shades go go...go

Mumford & Sons, Hozier - Rubber Band Man

When you can’t win
For losing
And the beggars start choosing the chaos in your head

Calls the cracks to start showing
All knowing all glowing with the light of the
Dying to raise the dead, oh

You’re a world away
But you’re still the same
I know you by your heart
And I will call you by your name

It’s a long way
From the crack to the break

You know that I remember everything

Steady yourself
And your tumbleweed words

Be a street corner preacher
Or just feed the birds

But don’t hold to yourself
With hard mortar and stone

Be a rubber band man
Make the water your bones

Dying just to live
Now

You’re a world away
But you’re still the same

I know you by your heart
And I will call you by your name

And it’s a long way
From the crack to the break

You know that I remember everything

When I said forever

You said get back in the car
Nothing lasts forever babe
You know it breaks my heart

And I’ll call you anything that you like

And I am free and I’m able
To call you the second that you die
Just to live
Now

You’re a world away
But you’re still the same

I know you by your heart
And I will call you by your name

And it’s a long way
From the crack to the break

You know that I remember everything

When I said forever
You said get back in the car
Nothing lasts forever babe
You know it breaks my heart

You’re a world away
But you’re still the same

You know that I remember everything

New ink on your skin
Red lips in the dark

Nothing lasts forever babe
You know it breaks my heart

Put a shiver on your skin
Do your hair in the car

If nothing lasts forever babe
Then can we make a start?

My Chemical Romance - I'm Not Okay (I Promise)

Well, if you wanted honesty
That's all you had to say
I never want to let you down
Or have you go, it's better off this way

For all the dirty looks
The photographs your boyfriend took
Remember when you broke your foot
From jumping out the second floor?

I'm not okay
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
You wear me out

What will it take to show you
That it's not the life it seems?(I'm not okay)
I've told you time and time again
You sing the words, but don't know what it means(I'm not okay)

To be a joke and look
Another line without a hook
I held you close as we both shook
For the last time, take a good hard look

I'm not okay
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
You wear me out

Forget about the dirty looks
The photographs your boyfriend took
You said you read me like a book
But the pages all are torn and frayed now

I'm okay, I'm okay, I'm okay now,"I'm okay now."
But you really need to listen to me
Because I'm telling you the truth
I mean this, I'm okay!"Trust me."

I'm not okay
I'm not okay, well, I'm not okay, I'm not o-f---ing-kay!
I'm not okay
I'm not okay...

Dead Sara - Anybody

Call out, call out, I was hoping you'd find me
Head up, head up, 'cause I want you so proud

A Day to Remember- I'm Already Gone

As I look round this make shift moving house
I'm searching for whatever's left of me
It's on the ground in a box that reads lost and found.
It's lost and found.

She said, just let it go.
She said, it's all you've ever known.

And I'm, I'm already gone
I'm already something to someone that I don't know.
When will I know?
And I'm, I'm out making rounds
On every side of town
That I've been through, that I know.
To find my reason to come back home.

I've worked it out you'll always bring me down.
From here on out I'm doing things for me.
I'm impatient now. I'm not the type for life alone,
I need someone.

She said, just let it go.
She said, it's all you've ever know.

And I'm, I'm already gone
I'm already something to someone that I don't know.
When will I know?
And I'm, I'm out making rounds
On every side of town
That I've been through, that I know.
To find my reason to come back home.

With everything that sets me back,
I push back harder to clear the way.
There's not a thing that I regret,
Can't live my life in yesterday.
[x2]

Life in yesterday.

And I'm, I'm already gone
I'm already something to someone that I don't know.
When will I know?
And I'm, I'm out making rounds
On every side of town
That I've been through, that I know.
To find my reason to come back home.

P.O.D. - Boom

I never knew that a kid like me
Could take his mic around the world and flash the big S.D.
And rock the masses, from Madrid to Calabassas
Tijuana, Mexico, bootleg demos in Tokyo
They know me though, 'cause I be puttin' in work
Commit my life to rebirth, well respected, 'cause that's my word
I'm sure you heard, about a new sound going around
She might have left my hood, but she was born in my town
You didn't know, thought we was new on the scene

How you like me now?
We rep. the South, so what you talking about
I'm not running off my mouth, I know this without a doubt
Cause if you know these streets, then these streets know you
When it's time to handle business, then you know what to do
Me and my crew, we stay true, old school or new
Many were called, but the chosen are few
We rise to the top, what you want? Just in case you forgot
Rush the stage, grab my mic, show me what you got
You didn't know, thought we was new on the scene

Well, it's alright! It's alright!
I know you know, I see you smiling at me
Well, it's alright! It's alright!
Boom! Here comes the Boom!
Ready or not, here comes the boys from the South
Boom! Here comes the Boom!
How you like me now?
Boom! Here comes the Boom!
Ready or not, here comes the boys from the South
Boom! Here comes the Boom!
How you like me now?
You didn't know, thought we was new on the scene
Well, it's alright! It's alright!
I know you know, I see you smiling at me
Well, it's alright! It's alright!

Is that all you got?
I'll take your best shot.

Alicia Keys - Underdog

[Intro]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 1]
She was walking in the street, looked up and noticed
He was nameless, he was homeless
She asked him his name and told him what hers was
He gave her a story 'bout life
With a glint in his eye and a corner of a smile
One conversation, a simple moment
The things that change us if we notice
When we look up sometimes

[Pre-Chorus]
They said I would never make it
But I was built to break the mold
The only dream that I've been chasing is my own

[Chorus]
So I sing a song for the hustlers trading at the bus stop
Single mothers waiting on a check to come
Young teachers, student doctors
Sons on the front line knowing they don't get to run
This goes out to the Underdog
Keep on keeping at what you love
You'll find that someday soon enough
You will rise up, rise up, yeah

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 2]
She's riding in a taxi back to the kitchen
Talking to the driver 'bout his wife and his children
On the run from a country where they put you in prison
For being a woman and speaking your mind
She looked in his eyes in the mirror and he smiled
One conversation, a single moment
The things that change us if we notice
When we look up sometimes

[Pre-Chorus]
They said I would never make it
But I was built to break the mold
The only dream that I've been chasing is my own

[Chorus]
So I sing a song for the hustlers trading at the bus stop
Single mothers waiting on a check to come
Young teachers, student doctors
Sons on the front line knowing they don't get to run
This goes out to the Underdog
Keep on keeping at what you love
You'll find that someday soon enough
You will rise up, rise up, yeah

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Bridge]
Everybody rise up
You gonna rise up, ayy

[Chorus]
So I sing a song for the hustlers trading at the bus stop
Single mothers waiting on a check to come (Single mothers)
Young teachers, student doctors (Yeah)
Sons on the front line knowing they don't get to run
This goes out to the Underdog
Keep on keeping at what you love
You'll find that someday soon enough
You will rise up, rise up, yeah

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Evanescence - Wasted On You

I don’t need drugs
I’m already six feet low
Wasted on you
Waiting for a miracle
I can’t move on
Feels like we’re frozen in time
I’m wasted on you
Just pass me the bitter truth

Love, don’t you remember
we were the ones
nothing could ever change and love
It’s easier not to believe we have broken everything
but here we are
Numb my head till I can’t think anymore
But I still feel the pain

I don’t need drugs
I’m already six feet low
Wasted on you
Waiting for a miracle
I can’t move on
Feels like we’re frozen in time
I’m wasted on you
Just pass me the bitter truth

Once this was a garden
This was our world
All of the nightmares stayed in the dark
A little too much time by yourself and you become the enemy
Just look at us now
Drowning slowly just to stay true

I don’t need drugs
I’m already six feet low
Wasted on you
Waiting for a miracle
I can’t move on
I feel like we’re frozen in time
I’m wasted on you
Just pass me the bitter truth

Will I ever be the same
Am I strong enough to change
is it in my blood
Shield my eyes to face the day
Come too far to slip away
But it’s killing me to go on without you

I don’t need drugs
I'm wasted on you
Waiting for a miracle
I can’t move on
like we’re frozen in time
I’m wasted on you
Just pass me the bitter truth

Kensington - Streets

So, whenever they'll say that all we had is bound to fall
Oh, together we'll stay (when you get in our way, when you get in our way)
Strange, how everything seems to float in grey and drown in gold
Stay, and everything's safe (when we're pulling our way, when we're pulling our own way down)

I'll rise and guess where I will go
I'll rise and guess where I (go)

Where do we go when the streets are calling? (Calling, calling)
How do we know when we each stop falling? (Falling, falling)

Say, that everything caves in on our way to grander goals
Wait, and everything's save (when we let it all in, let it all in)
How, letting it rain, our own distress, our own mistakes
Wait, till everything breaks (when we're pulling our way, when we're pulling our own way down)

I'll rise and guess where I will go
I'll rise and guess where I (go)

Where do we go when the streets are calling? (Calling, calling)
How do we know when we each stop falling? (Falling, falling)
Where do we go when the streets are calling? (Calling, calling)
How do we know when we each stop falling? (Falling, falling)

I'll rise and guess where I will go
I'll rise and guess where I will
I'll rise and guess where I will go
I'll rise and guess where I will

Where do we go when the streets are calling? (Calling, calling)
How do we know when we each stop falling? (Falling, falling)
Where do we go when the streets are calling? (Calling, calling)
How do we know when we each stop falling? (Falling, falling)
Where do we go when the streets are calling? (Calling, calling)
How do we know when we each stop falling? (Falling, falling)

Psalm 46 - KJV and Scottish Metrical Psalter

1 GOD is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

2 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains
be carried into the midst of the sea;

3 Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the
swelling thereof. Selah.

4 There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of
the tabernacles of the most High.

5 God is in the midst of here; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.

6 The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted.

7 The LORD of host is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.

8 Come, behold the works of the LORD, what desolations he hath made in the earth.

9 He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the
spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire.

10 Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.

11 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.

Psalm 46 - KJV

1 God is our refuge and our strength,
in straits a present aid;
2 Therefore, although the earth remove,
we will not be afraid:
Though hills amidst the seas be cast;
3 Though waters roaring make,
And troubled be; yea, though the hills,
by swelling seas do shake.
4 A river is, whose streams do glad
the city of our God;
The holy place, wherein the Lord
most high hath his abode.
5 God in the midst of her doth dwell;
nothing shall her remove:
The Lord to her an helper will,
and that right early, prove.
6 The heathen rag'd tumultuously,
the kingdoms moved were:
The Lord God uttered his voice,
the earth did melt for fear.
7 The Lord of hosts upon our side
doth constantly remain:
The God of Jacob's our refuge,
us safely to maintain.
8 Come, and behold what wondrous works
have by the Lord been wrought;
Come, see what desolations
he on the earth hath brought.
9 Unto the ends of all the earth
wars into peace he turns:
The bow he breaks, the spear he cuts,
in fire the chariot burns.
10 Be still, and know that I am God;
among the heathen I
Will be exalted; I on earth
will be exalted high.
11 Our God, who is the Lord of hosts,
is still upon our side;
The God of Jacob our refuge
for ever will abide.

Psalm 46 Scottish Metrical Psalter

Linkin Park - Heavy is the Crown

It's pouring in
You’re laid on the floor again
One knock at the door and then
We both know how the story ends
You can’t win if your white flag’s out when the war begins
Aiming so high but swinging so low
Trying to catch fire but feeling so cold
Hold it inside and hope it won’t show
I’m saying it’s not but inside I know

Today’s gonna be the day you notice
Cause I’m tired of explaining what the joke is

This is what you asked for
Heavy is the crown
Fire in the sunrise
Ashes raining down
Try to hold it in but
It keeps bleeding out
This is what you asked for
Heavy is the
Heavy is the crown

Turn to run
Now look what it's become
Outnumbered ten to one
Back then should've bit your tongue
'Cause there’s no turning back this path once it’s begun
You’re already on that list
Say you don’t want what you can't resist
Waving that sword when the pen won’t miss
Watch it all falling apart like this

This is what you asked for
Heavy is the crown
Fire in the sunrise
Ashes raining down
Try to hold it in but it
It keeps bleeding out
This is what you asked for
Heavy is the
Heavy is the crown

Today’s gonna be the day you notice
Cause I’m tired of explaining what the joke is

THIS IS WHAT YOU ASKED FOR
This is what you asked for
Heavy is the crown
Fire in the sunrise
Ashes raining down
Try to hold it in but it
It keeps bleeding out
This is what you asked for
Heavy is the
Heavy is the crown
Heavy is the crown
Heavy is the
Heavy is the crown

Audioslave - I Am the Highway

Pearls and swine bereft of me

Long and weary my road has been

I was lost in the cities

Alone in the hills

No sorrow or pity

For leaving

I feel

I am not your rolling wheels

I am the highway

I am not your carpet ride

I am the sky

Friends and liars

Don't wait for me

Cause I'll get on

All by myself

I put millions of miles

Under my heels

And still too close to you

I feel

I am not your rolling wheels

I am the highway

I am not your carpet ride

I am the sky

I am not your blowing wind

I am the lightning

I am not your autumn moon

I am the night

The night
