- 1. Paralyzer – Finger Eleven
Lyrics
I hold on so nervously
To me and my drink
I wish it was cooling me
But so far, has not been good
It’s been shitty
And I feel awkward, as I should
This club has got to be
The most pretentious thing
Since I thought you and me
Well I am imagining
A dark lit place
Or your place or my place
Well I’m not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you
I want to make you move
Because you’re standing still
If your body matches
What your eyes can do
You’ll probably move right through
Me on my way to you
I hold out for one more drink
Before I think
I’m looking too desperately
But so far has not been fun
I should just stay home
If one thing really means one
This club will hopefully
Be closed in three weeks
That would be cool with me
Well I’m still imagining
A dark lit place
Or your place or my place
Well, I’m not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you
I want to make you move
Because you’re standing still
If your body matches
What your eyes can do
You’ll probably move right through
Me on my way to you
Well, I’m not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you
I want to make you move
Because you’re standing still
If your body matches
What your eyes can do
You’ll probably move right through
Me on my way to you
I’m not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you
I want to make you move
Because you’re standing still
If your body matches
What your eyes can do
You’ll probably move right through
Me on my way to you
You’ll probably move right through
Me on my way to you
You’ll probably move right through
Me on my way to you

- 2. 3’s & 7’s – Queens Of The Stone Age
Lyrics
Lie, lie to my face,
Tell me it ain’t no thing,
That’s what I wanna hear.
Take, a lie to the grave,
That’s what and old friend told me,
Look at what it did for him.
The truth hurts so bad, wouldn’t you say?
So why tell it?
If ignorance is bliss,
Then I’m in heaven now.
Run, you’ll never escape,
You see you go nowhere (so new you appear),
Broke, laid to waste,
Turn into sweet nothings,
That kiss you goodbye.
The truth hurts so bad, wouldn’t you say?
So why tell it?
If ignorance is bliss,
Then I’m in heaven now.
I keep doin’ it over and over again,
The never ending places I never been
No one is catching on or calling my bluff,
The devil made me, only we never met,
Watch you do is say it with a smile boy,
Makin’ us all forget

- 3. The Good Left Undone – Rise Against
Lyrics
In fields where nothing grew but weeds,
I found a flower at my feet,
Bending there in my direction,
I wrapped a hand around its stem,
I pulled until the roots gave in,
Finding there what I’d been missing,
But I know…
So I tell myself, I tell myself it’s wrong.
There’s a point we pass from which we can’t return.
I felt the cold rain of the coming storm.
All because of you,
I haven’t slept in so long.
When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean,
Longing for the shore where I can lay my head down,
I’ll follow your voice,
All you have to do is shout it out.
Inside my hands these petals browned,
Dried up, fallen to the ground
But it was already too late now.
I pushed my fingers through the earth,
Returned this flower to the dirt,
So it could live. I walked away now.
But I know…
Not a day goes by that I don’t feel this burn.
There’s a point we pass from which we can’t return.
I felt the cold rain of the coming storm.
All because of you,
I haven’t slept in so long,
When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean,
Longing for the shore where I can lay my head down,
I’ll follow your voice,
All you have to do is shout it out.
All because of you…
All because of you…
All because of you,
I haven’t slept in so long.
When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean,
Longing for the shore where I can lay my head down,
Inside these arms of yours.
All because of you,
I believe in angels.
Not the kind with wings,
No, not the kind with halos,
The kind that bring you home,
When home becomes a strange place.
I’ll follow your voice,
All you have to do is shout it out.

- 4. Never Too Late – Three Days Grace
Lyrics
This world will never be
What I expected
And if I don’t belong
Who would have guessed it
I will not leave alone
Everything that I own
To make you feel like it’s not too late
It’s never too late
Even if I say
It’ll be alright
Still I hear you say
You want to end your life
Now and again we try
To just stay alive
Maybe we’ll turn it all around
‘Cause it’s not too late
It’s never too late
No one will ever see
This side reflected
And if there’s something wrong
Who would have guessed it
And I have left alone
Everything that I own
To make you feel like
It’s not too late
It’s never too late
Even if I say
It’ll be alright
Still I hear you say
You want to end your life
Now and again we try
To just stay alive
Maybe we’ll turn it all around
‘Cause it’s not too late
It’s never too late
The world we knew
Won’t come back
The time we’ve lost
Can’t get back
The life we had
Won’t be ours again
This world will never be
What I expected
And if I don’t belong
Even if I say
It’ll be alright
Still I hear you say
You want to end your life
Now and again we try
To just stay alive
Maybe we’ll turn it all around
‘Cause it’s not too late
It’s never too late
Maybe we’ll turn it all around
‘Cause it’s not too late
It’s never too late (It’s never too late)
It’s not too late
It’s never too late

- 5. Wake Up Call – Maroon 5
Lyrics
I didn’t hear what you were saying.
I live on raw emotion baby
I answer questions never maybe
And I’m not kind if you betray me.
So who the hell are you to say we
Never would have made it babe.
[Bridge]
If you needed love
Well then ask for love
Could have given love
Now I’m taking love
And it’s not my fault
Cause you both deserve
What is coming now
So don’t say a word
[Chorus]
Wake up call
Caught you in the morning with another one in my bed
Don’t you care about me anymore?
Don’t you care about me? I don’t think so.
Six foot tall
Came without a warning so I had to shoot him dead
He won’t come around here anymore
Come around here? I don’t think so.
Would have bled to make you happy
You didn’t need to treat me that way
And now you beat me at my own game
And now I find you sleeping soundly
And your lovers screaming loudly
Hear a sound and hit the ground
[Bridge]
So don’t say a word
[Chorus]
[Breakdown]
I’m so sorry darling
Did I do the wrong thing?
Oh, what was I thinking?
Is his heart still beating?
Woah oh ohh
[Chorus x2]
I don’t feel so bad (Wake up call)
I don’t feel so bad (Caught you in the morning with another one in my bed)
I don’t feel so bad (Don’t you care about me anymore?)
Care about me? I don’t feel so bad.
Wake up call
Caught you in the morning with another one in my bed
Don’t you care about me anymore?

- 6. The Take Over, The Breaks Over – Fall Out Boy
Lyrics
Baby, seasons change but people don’t.
And I’ll always be waiting in the back room.
I’m boring but overcompensate with
Headlines and flash, flash, flash photography.
But don’t pretend you ever forgot about me.
Don’t pretend you ever forgot about me.
Wouldn’t you rather be a widow than a divorcee?
Style your wake for fashion magazines.
Widow or a divorcee?
Don’t pretend, d-d-d-don’t pretend.
We don’t fight fair.
We don’t fight fair.
They say your head can be a prison.
Then these are just conjugal visits.
People will dissect us till
This doesn’t mean a thing anymore.
Don’t pretend you ever forgot about me.
Don’t pretend you ever forgot about me.
Wouldn’t you rather be a widow than a divorcee?
Style your wake for fashion magazines, ohhh.
Widow or a divorcee?
Don’t pretend, d-d-d-don’t pretend.
We do it in the dark with smiles on our faces.
We’re dropped and well concealed in secret places, woah.
We do it in the dark with smiles on our faces.
We’re dropped and well concealed in secret places
We don’t fight fair.
We don’t fight fair.
We don’t fight fair.
We don’t fight fair.
We don’t fight fair.
We do it in the dark with smiles on our faces.
We’re dropped and well concealed in secret places, woah.
We do it in the dark with smiles on our faces.
We’re dropped and well concealed in secret places.
We don’t fight fair.
With smiles on our faces.
We’re dropped and well concealed in secret places.
We don’t fight fair.
Don’t pretend you ever forgot about me.
We don’t fight fair.
Don’t pretend you ever forgot about me.
We don’t fight fair.

- 7. Surrender – Billy Talent
Lyrics
She reads a book from across the street,
Waiting for someone that she’ll never meet.
Talk over coffee for an hour or two,
She wonders why I’m always in a good mood.
Killin’ time before she struts her stuff,
She needs support and I’ve become the crutch.
She’ll never know how much she means to me.
I’d play the game but I’m the referee.
Surrender every word, every thought every sound.
Surrender every touch, every smile, every frown.
Surrender all the pain we’ve endured until now.
Surrender all the hope that I lost you have found.
Surrender yourself to me.
Even though I know what I’m lookin’ for,
She’s got a brick wall behind her door.
I’d travel time and confess to her,
But I’m afraid she’d shoot the messenger.
Surrender every word, every thought every sound.
Surrender every touch, every smile, every frown.
Surrender all the pain we’ve endured until now.
Surrender all the hope that I lost you have found.
Surrender yourself to me.
I think I found a flower in a field of weeds,
I think I found a flower in a field of weeds.
Searching until my hands bleed,
This flower don’t belong to me.
I think I found a flower in a field of weeds,
I think I found a flower in a field of weeds.
Searching until my hands bleed,
This flower don’t belong to me.
This flower don’t belong to me.
Why could she belong to me?
Every word, every thought every sound.
Every touch, every smile, every frown.
All the pain we’ve endured until now.
All the hope that I lost you have found.
Surrender every word, every thought every sound.
Surrender every touch, every smile, every frown.
Surrender all the pain we’ve endured until now.
Surrender all the hope that I lost you have found.
(Surrender) I never had the nerve to ask,
(Surrender) Has my moment come and passed?
(Surrender) I never had the nerve to ask,
(Surrender) Has my moment come and passed?
(Surrender) I never had the nerve to ask,
(Surrender) Has my moment come and passed?
(Surrender) I never had the nerve to ask.

- 8. Shake Tramp – Marianas Trench
Lyrics
Did I let you down to get that sound
And break my knees to get release
And you needed some just to take you from
And I hit you more
Is your face still sore?
Sorry but I tried
It was never mine
And I can still pretend
I guess it all depends
I’m still a little crazy all the time
But I still try to hide it
That’s still mine
Try a little more
a little more
a little more
They slap you like a bitch
and you take it like a whore
What a cheap perfume
I hate this room
So testify
But I still tried
And you need that stamp
Little handshake tramp
And you hit me more
And my face is still sore
Sorry but I tried
It was never mine
And I can still pretend
I guess it all depends
I’m still a little crazy all the time
But I still try to hide it
That’s still mine
Try a little more
a little more
a little more
They slap you like a bitch
and you take it like a whore
Upside down
and around
and around
Just another piece
Till you need another sound
Faze them out
I know what you scream about
Don’t let me down
And the guilt in me is the hurt in you
And the hurt in you is the lost in me
And the lost in me is the need in you
And the need in you is the guilt in me
Try a little more
a little more
a little more
They slap you like a bitch
and you take it like a whore
Upside down
and around
and around
Just another piece
Till you need another sound
Try a little more
a little more
a little more
They slap you like a bitch
and you take it like a whore
Upside down
and around
and around
Just another piece
Till you need another sound

- 9. Nothing Special – illScarlett
Lyrics
I’m sick and tired of everybody
Thinking they know what’s best for me and
Maybe god wanted me to be
Nothing special.
I’m past the point of breaking and I’m
Not sure if I’m a gonna make it
I’ll keep this gift from breaking
As long as you BELIEVE!
I remember walking in the park on a lovely sunday afternoon.
“I won’t give up on you” she said.
Don’t be so afraid (so afraid)
I’ll maintain as long as you believe in… me…
(Greetings from the bottom, How many times I wanted to be a part of your complacency!)
I’m sick and tired of everybody
Thinking they know what’s best for me and
Maybe god wanted me to be
Nothing special.
I’m past the point of breaking and I’m
Not sure if I’m a gonna make it
I’ll keep this gift from breaking
As long as you BELIEVE!
This is the part of the song where I just don’t give a fuck about what you want
What you heard, what you thought
I won’t give up that easily
Hold me in your tenderness.
Over rated, so ungrateful for this is me.
(Greetings from the part of me that doesn’t wanna be apart of this fucking machine!)
I’m sick and tired of everybody
Thinking they know what’s best for me and
Maybe god wanted me to be
Nothing special.
I’m past the point of breaking and I’m
Not sure if I’m a gonna make it
I’ll keep this gift from breaking
As long as you believe.
If you belive.
Don’t be afraid
If you believe.
I’m sick and tired of everybody
Thinking they know what’s best for me and
Maybe god wanted me to be
Nothing special.
I’m past the point of breaking and I’m
Not sure if I’m a gonna make it
I’ll keep this gift from breaking
As long as you believe.
I’m sick and tired…
I’m sick and tired…
I’m sick and tired…
I wish I was nothing special.

- 10. Underclass Hero – Sum 41
Lyrics
One, two, three, four…
Well I
Won’t be caught living in a dead-end job,
While praying to my government, guns and God.
Now it’s us against them, we’re here to represent
And spit right in the face of the establishment.
And now I don’t believe (in having faith in nothing),
Stand on my own (and got no sympathy).
Wasting the youth (while being young and useless).
Speak for yourself (and don’t pray for me).
Well because we’re doing fine, and we don’t need to be told
That we’re doing fine, ’cause we won’t give you control.
And we don’t need anything from you,
‘Cause we’ll be just fine, and we won’t be bought and sold, just like you.
(A call across the Underclass.)
Calling out loud with no respect,
I’m not the one, I’m just another reject.
I’m the voice to offend all those who pretend.
Unsung against the grain, I’m here to rise against.
Now I’m desensitized (I state my place in nowhere),
Burning the flag (of the degeneration).
Everyone sing (the anthem of no future).
Down with the mass (’cause we’re not listening).
Well because we’re doing fine, and we don’t need to be told
That we’re doing fine, ’cause we won’t give you control.
And we don’t need anything from you,
‘Cause we’ll be just fine, and we won’t be bought and sold, just like you.
May I have your attention please?
I pledge allegiance to the Underclass,
As your hero at large!
One, two, three, four…
We’re the saints of degeneration,
We don’t owe anyone an explanation.
Fuck elitists, we don’t need this,
We’re the elite of just alright.
Well because we’re doing fine, and we don’t need to be told
That we’re doing fine, ’cause we won’t give you control.
And we don’t need anything from you,
‘Cause we’ll be just fine, and we won’t be bought and sold, just like you.

- 11. Old Habits Die Hard – Ten Second Epic
Lyrics
[CHORUS]
I’m not the only one
I know what your thinking, now
Honestly, your carefree
Life on weekends is starting to tear us apart
Honestly, why can’t we
Leave the nightlife for the lonely
And spend your evening right beside me
And when the drinks go down too fast
You slow down baby
It’s time to come clean
[CHORUS]
Honestly, think clearly when conscious
feels unconscious
and black and white perspective
turns to gray
Honestly, sleep soundly but while you
Fall asleep i’m leaving
So enjoy all the things you’re dreaming
And when the drinks go down too fast
You slow down baby
It’s time to come clean
[CHORUS]
You hate what you don’t know
It’s just a matter of time for you
[CHORUS]

- 12. The Heinrich Maneuver – Interpol
Lyrics
How are things on the west coast?
I hear you’re moving real fine
You wear those shoes like a dove
Now strut those shoes we go roaming in the night
Well how are things on the west coast?
You keep it moving to your soul’s delight
Now I’ve tried the brakes
I tried but you know it’s a lonely ride
How are things the west coast?
Oh I’d move heaven behind those eyes
Today my heart swings
Yeah today my heart swings
But I don’t want to take your heart
And I don’t want a piece of history
No, I don’t want to read your thoughts anymore
My god
‘Cause today my heart swings
Yeah today my heart swings
How are things on the west coast?
Hear you’re moving real fine tonight
You wear those shoes side to side
Ah, strut those shoes
We’ll go roaming in the night
Well how are things on the west coast?
Yeah but you’re an actress
I don’t identify
Today my heart swings
Yeah today my heart swings
Say it
But I don’t want to play the part
And I don’t want a taste of victory
No, I don’t want to read your thoughts anymore,
My God
‘Cause today my heart swings
Yeah today my heart swings
Say it
‘Cause today my heart swings
Yeah today my heart swings
Let it come
‘Cause I’ve got a chance for a sweet sane life
I said I’ve got a dance and you’ll do just fine
Well I’ve got a plan with forward in my eyes
Let it come.
Well I’ve got a chance for a sweet sane life
said I’ve got a dance
it moves into the night
Well I’ve got a plan with forward in my eyes
But today my heart swings

- 13. The Bird And The Worm – The Used
Lyrics
He wears his heart
safety pinned to his backpack
His backpack is all that he knows
Shot down by strangers
whose glances can cripple
the heart and devour the soul
All alone he turns to stone
while holding his breath half to death
Terrified of whats inside
to save his life he crawls
like a worm from a bird
crawls like a worm from a bird
Out of his mind away
pushes him whispering
must have been out of his mind
mid-day delusions of pushing this out of his head
maybe out of his mind
All alone he turns to stone
while holding his breath half to death
Terrified of whats inside
to save his life he
crawls like a worm from a bird
crawls like a worm from a bird
All he knows
If he can’t relieve it it grows
and so it goes
he crawls like a worm
crawls like a worm from the bird
Out of his mind away
pushes him whispering
must have been out of his mind
All alone he turns to stone
while holding his breath half to death
Terrified of whats inside
to save his life he crawls
like a worm from a bird
crawls like a worm from a bird
All alone
he’s holding his breath half to death
Terrified to save his life
he crawls like a worm
Crawls like a worm from a bird
crawls like a worm from a bird
crawls like a worm from a bird
crawls like a worm
crawls like a worm
crawls like a worm from a bird

- 14. Rough Hands – Alexisonfire
Lyrics
Was I left behind?
Someone tell me, tell me I survived
And don’t look so surprised
that I’m home, but just for tonight
With rough hands and sore eyes
So don’t speak, I am tired
Let’s just live through this lie
She says I swear too much
She says a lot of things
Well I’d swear every other word if I could
For her, I’ll make an attempt
Sometimes love isn’t about
how much someone suits you
But how much you’re willing to change
to suit them
All my bones are dust
(two people too damaged too much too late)
And my heart sealed with rust
(two people too damaged too much too late)
These hands will always be rough
(two people too damaged too much too late)
I know this won’t count for much
(two people too damaged too much too late)
One day my hands were too soft
One day she said, “I’m tired”
One day her clothes were on my floor
One day, empty bottles
I’m not saying she’s my last
I’m just saying that she could have been
It doesn’t matter how rough these hands get
It doesn’t matter ’cause I’m not her man
Rough hands, rough days
Rough hands, rough nights
Rough hands, rough season
Rough hands, rough fights…
All my bones are dust (Rough hands, rough days)
(two people too damaged too much too late)
And my heart sealed with rust (Rough hands, rough season)
(two people too damaged too much too late)
These hands will always be rough (Rough hands, rough days)
(two people too damaged too much too late)
I know this won’t count for much (Rough hands, rough season)
(two people too damaged too much too late)

- 15. Walls Fall Down – Bedouin Soundclash
Lyrics
When the walls fall down
On your old town
Then you began
See I had these walls
Built up so strong
Built when I was young
In wars I’ve won
But if I’m alone
Stone upon stone
So tall, I could not see
Beyond my wall
But your walls fall down
And your walls fall down
And when walls come down
On your old town you began
A bit unassured
A bit insecure
I climbed up to the top
And saw I lacked
And my fist stone cracked
Foundation collapsed
Standing on the ground
In stones I found
That your walls fall down
And your walls fall down
And when walls come down
On your old town, you began
In other lands
From where you stand
Beneath a shelter
Built by many hands
There is a stone
And you’ve locked the door
Of people you were swore
You came for war
And your walls fall down
Walls fall down
Walls fall down
Like a stone falls down
I’m no stone
I’m no stone
It’s just a stone
Stone falls down
Says he’s a stone
(Walls fall down, walls fall down)
No man’s a stone

- 16. Flathead – The Fratellis
Lyrics
Just because she feeds me well
And she made me talk dirty in a pink hotel
Doesn’t mean she’s got eyes for me
She might just want my bones you see
Hey flathead don’t you get mean
She’s the second best killer that I have ever seen
They don’t come much more sick than you
I could go on if you want me to
It’s just so wrong so very nice I told you
once and you killed me twice
I saw you one time at the back of the
club chewing on glass and a ticket stub
I heard they kicked the boy till he bled
Then stood and said oh my god till she said
Bara bap bara ra ra bara bap bara ra ra ra…
Everybody knows you’re the one to call
When the girls get ugly at the back of the wall
Josephine says you got a bleeding nose
So taking it with her wherever she goes
Hey flathead don’t check me in
Well hers is a tonic and mine is a gin
They don’t come much more slick
Than you I’d drive your car if you ask me to
Said the boy’s not right in the head
So he stood and got a kicking instead till she said
Bara bap bara ra ra bara bap bara ra ra ra…
And she said the boy’s not right in the head
And you stood and said oh my god till she said
Bara bap bara ra ra bara bap bara ra ra ra…

- 17. Face Down – The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
Lyrics
Hey, girl, you know you drive me crazy
one look puts the rhythm in my hand.
Still I’ll never understand why you hang around
I see what’s going down.
Cover up with makeup in the mirror
tell yourself, it’s never gonna happen again
You cry alone and then he swears he loves you.
Do you feel like a man when you push her around?
Do you feel better now as she falls to the ground?
Well I’ll tell you my friend, one day this world’s going to end
as your lies crumble down, a new life she has found.
A pebble in the water makes a ripple effect
every action in this world will bear a consequence
If you wade around forever, you will surely drown
I see what’s going down.
I see the way you go and say you’re right again,
say you’re right again
Heed my lecture.
Do you feel like a man when you push her around?
Do you feel better now as she falls to the ground?
Well I’ll tell you my friend, one day this world’s going to end
as your lies crumble down, a new life she has found
[x2]
Face down in the dirt, she said,
“This doesn’t hurt”, she said,
“I finally had enough.”
One day she will tell you that she has had enough
It’s coming round again.
[x2]
Do you feel like a man when you push her around?
Do you feel better now as she falls to the ground?
Well I’ll tell you my friend, one day this world’s going to end
as your lies crumble down, a new life she has found
Face down in the dirt, she said,
“This doesn’t hurt”, she said,
“I finally had enough.”

- 18. Evolution – Korn
Lyrics
I’m diggin’ with my fingertips
I’m ripping at the ground I stand upon
I’m searching for fragile bones
Evolution
I’m never gonna be refined
Keep trying but I won’t assimilate
Sure we have come far in time
watch the bow break
And I’m sorry that I don’t believe
by the evidence that I see
That there’s any hope left for me
It’s evolution
Just evolution
And I, I do not dare deny
the basic beast inside
It’s right here
It’s controlling my mind
And why do I deserve to die
and I’m dominated by
This animal thats locked up inside
Close up to get a real good view
I’m betting that the species will survive
Hold tight, I’m getting inside you
Evolution
And when were gonna find these bones
They’re gonna want to keep them in a jar
the number one virus caused by
Procreation
And the planet may go astray
in a million years they’ll say
Those motherfuckers were all deranged
It’s evolution
Just evolution
And I, I do not dare deny
the basic beast inside
It’s right here
It’s controlling my mind
And why do I deserve to die
I’m dominated by
This animal thats locked up inside
Take a look around
Nothing much has changed
Take a look around
Nothing much has changed
Take a look around [x3]
Nothing much has changed
Take a look around [x2]
Nothing much has changed
Take a look around [x2]
Nothing much has changed
Take a look around
I, I do not dare deny
the basic beast inside
It’s right here
It’s controlling my mind
And why do I deserve to die
I’m dominated by
This animal that’s locked up inside
Why
Why do I deserve to die?
