	1. Devil In A Midnight Mass – Billy Talen Lyrics A devil in a midnight mass, He preyed behind stained glass A memory of Sunday class, Resurrected from the past Hold your breath and count to four Pinky swears don’t work no more Footsteps down the hallway floor, Getting closer to my door I was alive, but now I’m singing… Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Violent Knight… at the edge of your knife, “Forgive me Father”…don’t make it right Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Silent Night… at the edge of your knife, You’re guilty! A devil in a midnight mass, Killed the boy inside the man The holy water in his hands, Can never wash away his sins Hold your breath and count to four Pinky swears don’t work no more Put my trust in God that day, Not the man that taught his way I was alive, but now I’m singing… Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Violent Knight… at the edge of your knife, “Forgive me Father”…don’t make it right Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Silent Night… at the edge of your knife You’re guilty! Whisper, whisper… don’t make a sound, Your bed is made; it’s in the ground
	2. Emergency – Paramore Lyrics I think we have an emergency I think we have an emergency If you thought I’d leave, then you were wrong Cause I won’t stop holding on So are you listening? So are you watching me? If you thought I’d leave, then you were wrong Cause I won’t stop holding on. This is an emergency So are you listening? And I can’t pretend that I don’t see this It’s really not your fault That no one cares to talk about it, Talk about it Cause I’ve seen love die Way too many times When it deserved to be alive (When it deserved to be alive) I’ve seen you cry Way too many times When you deserve to be alive, alive So you give up every chance you get Just to feel new again I think we have an emergency I think we have an emergency And you do your best to show me love, but you don’t know what love is. So are you listening? So are you watching me? Well I can’t pretend that I don’t see this It’s really not your fault That no one cares to talk about it, Talk about it Cause I’ve seen love die Way too many times When it deserved to be alive (When it deserved to be alive) I’ve seen you cry Way too many times When you deserve to be alive, alive These scars, they will not fade away. No one cares to talk about it, talk about it Cause I’ve seen love die Way too many times When it deserved to be alive (When it deserved to be alive) I’ve seen you cry Way too many times When you deserve to be alive, alive
	3. Coffeeshop Soundtrack – All Time Low Lyrics Should I write myself out of the history books And mark a place in time for every chance you took? Don’t get me wrong, I know you’ve got your life in place I’ve yet to take the hint, someday I’m sure I’ll get the picture And stop waiting up When it all comes down To a sunrise on the East Side, Will you be there to carry home The remains of my wasted youth? This wasted time on you Has left me shaking in waiting, Shaking in waiting for something more Tonight is alive with the promise of a street-fight, And there’s money on the table That says your cheap shots won’t be able To break bones I’ve yet to break a sweat I’ll make your past regret its future Here’s to you When it all comes down To a sunrise on the East Side, Will you be there to carry home The remains of my wasted youth? This wasted time on you Has left me shaking in waiting For something more Make all of my decisions for me I’ve never taken the fall for deceit I’ll keep a secret if you keep me guessing The taste of your lips says we shouldn’t have met like… Make all of my decisions for me I’ve never taken the fall for deceit We’ll keep a secret if you keep me guessing The taste of your lips says we shouldn’t have met like this I can keep a secret if you can keep me guessing The flavor of your lips is enough to keep me pressing For more than just a moment of truth between the lies told To pull ourselves away from the lives we leave back (I can keep a secret if you can keep me guessing) The flavor of your lips is enough to keep me here, keep me here When it all comes down To a sunrise on the East Side, Will you be there to carry me home? The remains of my wasted youth, This wasted time on you, Has left me shaking in waiting For something more
	4. The Phrase That Pays – The Academy Is… Lyrics My eyes can’t believe what they have seen. In the corner of your room you’ve stockpiled millions of my memories. Oh Doctor, Doctor, I must have gotten this sick somehow. I’m going to ask you a series of questions, And I want them answered on the spot, right now. Is it serious? I’m afraid it is. Am I gonna die? Well son, death is gonna catch up to all one day, But yours is coming quicker than ours, than ours. Some things I may have taken for granted again and again, well here’s what was said then Hold your head high heavy heart. So take a chance and make it big, Cause it’s the last you’ll ever get. If we don’t take it, when will we make it? I make plans to break plans, And I’ve been planning something big, planning something big, planning. I’ve never tried to make the best of my time, When I thought that I had plenty of it. Is this serious? I don’t know what to think. Is it all a lie? Well one thing is for sure I’m taken back to the glory days When we were kids without a brash or bitter thing to say. Now my life is one big make it, or break it. Hold your head high heavy heart Save your strength for the morning after. So take a chance and make it big, Cause it’s the last you’ll ever get. If we don’t take it, when will we make it? I make plans to break plans, And I’ve been planning something big, planning something big So take a chance and make it big, Cause it’s the last you’ll ever get. If we don’t take it, when will we make it? I make plans to break plans, And I’ve been planning something big, planning something big, planning. [x2]
	5. Monster – Meg & Dia Lyrics His little whispers, “Love me, love me That’s all I ask for Love me, love me.” He battered his tiny fists to feel something Wondered what it’s like to touch and feel something Monster, How should I feel? Creatures lie here Looking through the window That night he caged her Bruised and broke her He struggled closer Then he stole her Violet wrists and then her ankles Silent Pain Then he slowly saw their nightmares were his dreams Monster, How should I feel? Creatures lie here Looking through the windows I will Hear their voices I’m a glass child, I am Hannah’s regrets Monster, How should I feel? Turn the sheets down Murder ears with pillow lace There’s bath tubs Full of glow flies Bathe in kerosene Their words tattooed in his veins, yeah!
	6. Going Through Changes – Army of Me Lyrics It’s hard to have strength when there’s nothing to eat And it’s hard to eat when you don’t have the teeth And how, when you lose the one thing you love There’s nothing below and there’s nothing above. I’ve been going through changes I’ve been going through changes I’ve been going through changes With nothing at all. It’s hard to accept what you don’t understand And it’s hard to launch without knowing how to land And how, when it burns, you can’t change a thing [ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/a/army-of-me-lyrics/going-through-changes-lyrics.html] You can soften the blow, but you can’t stop the sting I’ve been going through changes…. I am still yours even if you’re not mine I stare at the floor and I study the lines Oh I took my place at the back of the crowd Baby I couldn’t see, but at least it was loud. At least it was loud. And I’ve been going through changes…. And I know that I needed changes But not this, this is not painless Oh no, this is not painless

Keep It Coming – Love Arcade Lyrics You know I wouldn’t say it if it wasn’t true It’s five ‘o clock and I’m thinking of you And all the things you make me do You know I really want ya really want ya Can’t keep my head straight,legs are about to break What more can I say I really want ya really want ya Keep it keep it comin’ all your lovin’ oh please don’t stop Turn me round ‘n’ from the bottom to the top Keep it crackin’ like a bubble pop pop pop All your lovin’ Want you now like I want you then Falling in love with you there is no end When you’re not here I like to pretend Because I really want ya really want ya It’s love I’m sure I can’t ignore Something so pure you I adore Let me think of a metaphor Love is like candy, wait, that’s a simile Keep it keep it comin’ all your lovin’ oh please don’t stop Turn me round ‘n’ from the bottom to the top Keep it crackin’ like a bubble pop pop pop All your lovin’ Now I see, now I see ’cause you’re lovin’ me Now I see, now I see c’ause you’re lovin’ me Keep it keep it comin’ all your lovin’ oh please don’t stop Turn me round ‘n’ from the bottom to the top Keep it crackin’ like a bubble pop pop pop All your lovin’

Do you wanna get down on the floor? All of the above I’m falling in love Anything goes now Everyone knows how to throw a party We’re gonna find one tonight We’re gonna show them what we’re made of All of the above… I’ve seen a lot of faces And I hear a lot of voices But never one as sweet as yours… Do you wanna carve My name into a wall Right next to yours inside the shape of a heart?

	9. Gone So Young – Amber Pacific Lyrics I never dreamt it’d be this way I’ve lost any chance for me to say To say that I miss you, say that I love you Will someone please tell me I’m okay I wasn’t prepared for what’s to come A life made of memories gone so young And now I’m regretting all I’ve done But in your heart know that I’m with you all along Wherever you go, I will be waiting Whenever you call, I will be there Whatever it takes, I’ll make your darkest days so bright I’m in your heart tonight I never thought that this could go And take me away from all I know And leave me to think I’m on my own But your love will take me, you were the one… …Who sat through nights You held me tight And made sure I’m okay And I thank you for the love you gave to me Wherever you go, I will be waiting Whenever you call, I will be there Whatever it takes, I’ll make your darkest days so bright I’m in your heart tonight… Tonight… Wherever you go, I will be waiting Whenever you call, I will be there Whatever it takes, I’ll make your darkest days so bright Wherever you go, I will be waiting Whenever you call, I will be there Whatever it takes, I’ll make your darkest days so bright And if I should fall, I know you’re waiting And if I should call, I know you’re there If ever you cry just know I’m in your heart tonight… I’m in your heart tonight.
	10. Lips Like Morphine – Kill Hannah Lyrics I want a girl with lips like morphine Knock me out every time they touch me I wanna feel that kiss just crush me And break me down Knock me out! Knock me out! ‘Cause I’ve waited for all my life To be here with you tonight I want a girl with lips like morphine Blow a kiss that leaves me gasping I want to feel that lightning strike me And burn me down Knock me out! Knock me out! ‘Cause I’ve waited for all my life To behere with you tonight Just put me on my back Knock me out again Oh, I want a girl with lips like morphine Knock me out everytime they touch me I want a girl with lips like morphine To knock me out See I’ve waited for all my life To be here with you tonight Just put me on my back Knock me out again.
	11. Tension – Nural Lyrics [CHORUS] Can you feel the tension in the air? Assuring you once agian I’m there ‘Cause you break my trust, you break my heart I’ll break your fall Your fall So I lied, Don’t say you’ve done the same without a smile upon your face ‘Cause once you’ve but tasted of this fruit that lay, A serpent’s swayed your ways Which brings me to my next thought, Walk these roads as crooked as they be So I lied, and so we lie [CHORUS] And so I lie, This time I face the sky without a smile, without a trace. I don’t just see blue I choose to. With still no sign of you. Which brings me to my next thought, Don’t be fooled by the cunning ways of the truth. And so I lied, and so we lie. Weakened knees, Belong to those who find it hard to believe, But so intrigued. By the thought of someone, somehow, meeting their needs By the thought of someone, somewhere, meeting our needs. Without tension in the air Assuring you once again I’m there You break my trust, you break my heart I break your fall Your fall Your fall Your fall But can you feel the tension in the air? Assuring you once again I’m there ‘Cause you break my trust, you break my heart I’ll break your fall (You break my trust) your fall (so I lied) (You break my heart) your fall (so I lied) Now break your fall Your fall
	12. In Effigy – Shadows Fall Lyrics You will never Give the power To the powerless Your new ideal Has Grown Beyond your control Can you ever find yourself again? Your vision distorting Knowing it will never end Can’t see through your eyes Can you imagine What is only One step away? The potential Is waiting Just beyond your grasp Can you ever find yourslef again? Your vision distorting Knowing it will never end Can you keep fighting on and on? THIS FALSE ME WILL BURN IN EFFIGY!!! It’s so easy To relax and watch from afar It’s so easy to give in to inertia Can you ever find yourself again? Your vision distorting Knowing it will never end Can’t see through your eyes
	13. Crossing The Rubicon – The Human Abstract Lyrics Of all the times I’ve been disrespected, youd think it’d be no surprise Learning lessons, all the precious treasures take all that youve got I’ll take your ready hand with a ready blade Dead set to make you lie in the bed you’ve made Paid in full, I’ll take it from your pride I don’t know what you thought, but you’ve gone past the line And you’ve got me wrong The time has come, your song has long been sung Brought down, you won’t have long to go I’m not cutting a loss again An hourglass of sand, and I’ll be on time, inform the rest Run as fast as you can, hell’s coming for you Try to strike and then slip away But I won’t let you leave without feeling an equal pain You’ll see, because I’ll make you see Left in my council you’ll know what it means to respect me Once I’ve caught you alone, I’ll teach you all you need to know Pray, once I’ve caught you alone, That I teach you all you need to know. Each of us has boundaries, everyone has got a breaking point I wish I held desire solely to right this wrong Take careful tones urging the dawn to come Make every word worth what it takes in turn But I can’t go on with my faith interrupted How can I look the other way? You’ve shown me there is no other way out.

	15. Punkrocker – Teddybears Lyrics See me drivin’ down the street, I’m bored with looking good. I got both hands off the wheel, The cops are coming.

Well I’m a punk rocker yes I am. I see you stagger in the street, And you cant stay on your feet. And your faking in your sleep, You wish that you were deep.

Well I’m a punk rocker yes I am. See me die on Bleeker street, I’m bored with being god, See me sneering in my car, I’m driving to my star.

Well I’m a punk rocker yes I am. Coz I’m a punk rocker yes I am. Well I’m a punk rocker yes I am.

	18. The Queen And I – Gym Class Heroes Lyrics I love it how she breathes booze in the mornin’ Man, it’s so sexy how she can’t remember last night I made a fatal mistake letting her drink again But who the hell am I to tell her how to live her life? And if you could put dumb in a shot glass I’m just another lush who’s had one too many in me And we please don’t have enough I see you stand there, settle for anything, anything’s better than lettin’ her think she could do better than me She’ll come around eventually ‘Cause baby girl’s a queen But the queen is just a pawn with a bunch of fancy moves And she’s made me a fiend I’m going through withdrawals ’cause I got nothing to lose Oh no, She’s at the bottom of that bottle She’s only one more swallow From being, oh, so hollow (Hey! Hey! Hey!) Bravo, she’s at the bottom of that bottle She’s only one more swallow From being, oh, so hollow I find it funny she can never find her car keys Immediately after telling me she can’t take it She makes the cutest faces when she screams obscenities And slurs her words because she’s never not inebriated And the front page headline read Let the girl go, you know you can do better It’s bad, when the fact that you can’t have her Is the reason you sweat her, Don’t let her take advantage of you Like the other dudes let her You better cut your losses now buddy. ‘Cause baby girl’s a queen And a queen’s a pawn with a bunch of fancy moves And she’s made me a fiend I’m going through withdrawals ’cause I got nothing to lose Oh no, She’s at the bottom of that bottle She’s only one more swallow From being, oh, so hollow (Hey! Hey! Hey!) Bravo, she’s at the bottom of that bottle She’s only one more swallow From being, oh, so hollow Drown yourself, It’s not worth keeping me Just put it down right now, And bow out gracefully (‘Cause baby girl’s a queen The queen’s just a pawn with a bunch of fancy moves And she’s made me a fiend I’m going through withdrawals ’cause I got nothing to lose) Oh no, She’s at the bottom of that bottle She’s only one more swallow From being, oh, so hollow (Hey! Hey! Hey!) Bravo, she’s at the bottom of that bottle She’s only one more swallow From being, oh, so hollow (Hey! Hey! Hey!…)
	19. Prangin Out – The Streets Lyrics [CHORUS] You’re prangin out, I see through you (I feel awful) This voice is talking to me, This aint even funny (The irons been on in my house has been in for 4 fucking weeks) I see through you, I’m about to do something stupid I daren’t say what my manager got lairy and smacked me, these headaches are getting unbearably nasty. Staring at the crackwork looking scary with my brandy, the rock and roll clich© walks in and then smacked me. Carelessly wreckin’ out prang just to handle the fear, I do a line but then panic cos I feel a bit prangy. So I glug marlon from the bottle to ease off the pain, then when it starts wearing off I just feel a bit sad. Snort more tour support and then have a drink, the bruise on the side of my head is madly banging. The only reason I started this was to still be here laughing, the only reason I started this was to still be here laughing. [CHORUS] The girl in my bed was kinda distant right now, I know she’s thinking she’s a bit frightened somehow, I don’t think she realised what I’d invited her back to my house. I don’t want anyone to see me like this right now, All sorts of thoughts rolling back in my eyes, I’ve been a poor sport thoughts dance in my mind, A banging headache, dancing prang by their side, Dancing with the pictures from the past of my life, I don’t remember any of what I just thought at all, The conclusion prior to when I forgot it all, Panicking a bit, getting frightened of fuck all, So nursing my bruise I drink right from the bottle, I don’t want anyone I know to see me like this, My fibs in single became lies in lists, She’s gonna sell/tell no doubt, Fuck it I’m not gonna stop drinking though, I cant for now. [CHORUS] My laptop must have slipped down and gone to sleep, Before the prang this pain was to dawn on me, Around the time I was sketching trying to con some sleep, And the new day on me was nearly dawning in here, I must have flaked while I inputted, waging loads more. Cos I staked on bookings, way to tow the score. Why do I break my rules not to wager anymore? I’d flaked on the bookings and majorly totalled on the score, I’ve got a simple problem, but my minds spinning out, I remembered the website between the wine and the stout, My rush of fear made me forget how fucked I had been, This time I’m drying my eyes and a fucking nose bleed, Turning my phone off when my promo guy phones me, The day before getting nasty with my manager when he only bit me, I threw his wallet out of the window as it was growing heated, He said ‘Sort your life out’ as he punched me over to my feet. [CHORUS x2] Right now logic states I need to be not contemplating suicide, Cos with rational thought it would seem that I need to be not doing the stuff that makes death seem like an easier option, I need a totally trojan plan right now.
	20. Destroyer – The Stills Lyrics And you don’t seem to miss me And you’re eyes sag So don’t make a goddamn sound I’m coming to your town I will destroy you Your soul impedes on mine Let go my free will I can’t stand compromise Only when you’re dead I’ll make you mine And the arrows are pointed And the archer’s delighted The thrill, the smell The shit I’ve been put through An angel to no one I hate you and you’re blood So don’t make a goddamned sound Cause I’m coming To your town
	21. Brother – Murder By Death Lyrics Fourteen years have passed since that day Your stories are the same but the ends have all changed You carried on like you were some type of god Some things will never change We went home to see our folks We laughed and we told jokes It was like we were young again On that deathbed our mother lay How long she’s got they still can’t say It took all this to get us back together again How long is this going to last You can’t keep reliving your past Screwing over the ones that you lone In the name of some new drug So brother, raise another pint Rev up the engine and drive off in the night See you somewhere some place some time I know there’s better brothers but you’re the only one that’s mine I know there’s better brothers but you’re the only one that’s mine The bondsman came to my door early the next day He said “I come lookin’ for you brother You don’t know what kind of trouble that he’s in” How long is this going to last You can’t keep reliving your past Johnny law keeps a poundin’ at my door ‘Cause you screwed up some new score So he’s standing in the doorway like he owns the place With a look of smug satisfaction on his face I’m gonna give you up Of that he’s sure as hell But I take one look at him and I know I’ll never tell So brother, raise another pint Rev up the engine and drive off in the night See you somewhere some place some time I know there’s better brother’s but you’re the only one that’s mine So brother, raise another pint Rev up the engine and drive off in the night I still look out for you no matter what you heard. They can knock all of my doors down but I won’t say a word. They can knock all of my doors down but I won’t say a word. Fourteen years have passed since that day but still nothing has changed.
