Bridge To Nowhere – Sam Roberts Lyrics Another day breaks and the last one’s gone You dig deep just to carry on Your debt’s paid off but it don’t feel gone So you slip out the back and you’re moving on I can never figure out how to make a case That this don’t amount to a fall from grace She wants to know can I replace This tired wool with satin lace Says you’re on a bridge to nowhere and you’re gettin’ there fast Put it in the past, put it in the past If this is a race then I hope you come last You’re on a bridge to nowhere and you’re gettin’ there fast Pressure builds till it breaks the door You can build a house you can’t build a home And it’s a fool who believes love is bred in the bone And there’s no guarantees that you won’t get stoned Yeah, I’m a fool who believed love is bred in the bone And there are no guarantees that I won’t get stoned Says you’re on a bridge to nowhere and you’re gettin’ there fast Put it in the past, put it in the past If this is a race then I hope you come last You’re on a bridge to nowhere and you’re gettin’ there fast I don’t know where it leads, oh no All I know is that I don’t wanna breathe this chemical breeze No more So another day breaks and the last one’s gone You dig deep just to carry on Your debt’s paid off but it don’t feel gone So you slip out the back and you’re moving on Says you’re on a bridge to nowhere and you’re gettin’ there fast Put it in the past, put it in the past If this is a race then I hope you come last You’re on a bridge to nowhere and you’re gettin’ there fast Yeah you’re on a bridge to nowhere and you’re gettin’ there fast Put it in the past, put it in the past If this is a race then I hope you come last You’re on a bridge to nowhere and you’re gettin’ there fast
	5. Devil In A Midnight Mass – Billy Talent 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

Far Away – Nickelback Lyrics This time, This place Misused, Mistakes Too long, Too late Who was I to make you wait Just one chance Just one breath Just in case there’s just one left ‘Cause you know, you know, you know [CHORUS] That I love you I have loved you all along And I miss you Been far away for far too long I keep dreaming you’ll be with me and you’ll never go Stop breathing if I don’t see you anymore On my knees, I’ll ask Last chance for one last dance ‘Cause with you, I’d withstand All of hell to hold your hand I’d give it all I’d give for us Give anything but I won’t give up ‘Cause you know, you know, you know [CHORUS] So far away Been far away for far too long So far away Been far away for far too long But you know, you know, you know I wanted I wanted you to stay ‘Cause I needed I need to hear you say That I love you I have loved you all along And I forgive you For being away for far too long So keep breathing ‘Cause I’m not leaving you anymore Believe it Hold on to me and, never let me go Keep breathing ‘Cause I’m not leaving you anymore Believe it Hold on to me and, never let me go Keep breathing Hold on to me and, never let me go Keep breathing Hold on to me and, never let me go
	8. Speechless – Melissa O’Neil Lyrics I find I get lost for words around you Overwhelmed by your presence I feel the same, I hear the words you won’t say Echo through your eyes Nothing more for me to say Silence understands some things What is meant to be, will be [Chorus] Sometimes it’s the words we don’t say that get in the way Time will break down the walls that we’ve built between us I won’t ever be speechless This feeling takes me just like a painted sky how do I describe all these colours inside Nothing left for me to say anyway [Chorus] I wanna know you inside out I want to know you without a doubt And though we’re shy Would it be easier just to say goodbye I want to learn to read your mind I want to say the words but my tongue gets tied And don’t feel shy Would it be easier just to say goodbye I find I get lost for words around you Overwhelmed by your presence [Chorus] I won’t ever be Won’t ever be I won’t ever be Speechless
	9. Little Girl Blue – Diana Krall Lyrics Sit there and count your fingers What can you do Old girl you’re through Just sit there and count your little fingers Unlucky little girl blue. Just sit there and count the raindrops Falling on you It’s time you knew All you can count on Are the raindrops That fall on little girl blue No use old girl You may as well surrender Your hopes are getting slender Why won’t somebody send a tender blue boy To cheer up little girl blue No use old girl You may as well surrender Your hopes are getting slender Why won’t somebody send a tender blue boy To cheer up little girl blue
	10. Caravanserai – Loreena McKennitt Lyrics This glancing life is like a morning star A setting sun, or rolling waves at sea A gentle breeze or lightning in a storm A dancing dream of all eternity The sand was shimmering in the morning light And dancing off the dunes so far away The night held music so sweet, so long And there we lay until the break of day We woke that morning at the onward call Our camels bridled up, our howdahs full The sun was rising in the eastern sky Just as we set out to the desert’s cry Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you The tents grew smaller as we rode away On earth that tells of many passing days The months of peace and all the years of war The lives of love and all the lives of fears Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you We crossed the river beds all etched in stone And up the mighty mountains ever known Beyond the valleys in the searing heat Until we reached the caravanserai Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you What is this life that pulls me far away What is that home where we cannot reside What is that quest that pulls me onward My heart is full when you are by my side Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you
	11. Deux Par Deux Rassemblés – Pierre Lapointe Lyrics Celui qui étais fort hier Ne sera que poussière demain Malgré la grandeur des refrains Et malgré l’arme qu’il a à la main Tout ce qui monte redescend Celui qui tombe se relèvera Si aujourd’hui je pleure dans tes bras Demain je repartirai au combat Non ce n’est sûrement pas de briller Qui nous empêchera de tomber Non, ce n’est sûrement pas de tomber Qui nous empêchera de rêver Ce qui reste à jamais gravé Dans tous les coeurs disloquée N’est pas objet qui ne pense qu’à briller Mais plutôt tout geste de vérité Demain nous donnerons nos armes En offrande à notre-dame Pour ces quelques pécheurs sans âme En échange des ornements de nos larmes Non ce n’est sûrement pas de briller Qui nous empêchera de tomber Non, ce n’est sûrement pas de tomber Qui nous empêchera de rêver Même les yeux, le coeur aveuglé Par l’alcool de St Troublé, Par le frère de l’huitre scellé Viendra, nous continuerons à marcher Une fois deux par deux rassemblés Nous partirons le point levé, Jamais la peur d’être blessé N’empêchera nos coeurs de crier
	12. Pull Me Through – Jim Cuddy Lyrics There’s papers scattered on the lawn, Birds up on the line. There’s letters left unopened here, That never is the time. There’s messages I should return, And people I should call. I’m still tripping over echoes, Left lying in the hall. There’s a light that comes through the darkness, Slowly to my eyes. You can fall back here forever, I just never realized. Oh time won’t let me go, And every night I know [CHORUS] That you could pull me through. You could always pull me through. Even when I’m lying here, Drowning in my blues. You take the sting out of the rain, And bring the sun back up again, And you could always pull me through. Oh we stood outside together, And we laughed like ancient friends. Then we laid down in a field, Just where the road begins and ends. Well I see you in the mirror, And I watch you from a far. My friends all think I’m crazy, But I know the way things are. Outside I hear voices underneath the moon, But I’m grateful for whatever, Breaks the silence of this room. Oh time won’t let me go, And every night I know [CHORUS] I hope you’re traveling well now, And there’s stars over your head. And I hope the river carries you, Everywhere you said. Well I miss the way you look at me. The way you wear your hair. And I miss the conversations we left hanging in the air. Oh late at night I wake up, Wonder what’s been done, But I know our life together will go on, and on. [CHORUS]
	13. Meant To Fly – Eva Avila Lyrics Yeah…. That’s right Hmmmmm Looks like the sun won’t come out today But the weather man said there’s no chance of rain, Every once in a while, you need to get away Feels like voodoo dolls and prank calls everyday, yeah But I believe that we’re meant to fly Come with me, baby don’t hide All your hopes and all your fears are safe out here tonight Cuz I believe that we’re meant to fly So come on lets ride.. oooo. Sounds like the birds have stop singing.. yeah The cold winds must have come and taken them, yeah, yeah But all you want is to sing along And bring them back again Its all detours red lights and dead end. And I believe that we’re meant to fly Come with me, baby don’t hide All your hopes and all your fears are safe out here tonight And I believe that we’re meant to fly, Come on I’ll take you to a place that no one’s ever been before We’re hanging on too long and time has come to let go.. You got to let go, oh yeahh yeahh yeahh And I believe that we’re meant to fly Cause I believe come with me baby, dont cry ooooo (we’re meant to fly) All your hopes and all your fears are safe out here tonight Cause I believe that we were meant to fly Cause I believe, cause I believe, cause I believe We’re meant to fly, that we’re meant to fly Ooooooo We’re meant, we’re meant to fly
	14. Flawed Design – Stabilo Lyrics When I was a young boy, I was honest And I had more self control If I was tempted I would run Then when I got older I began to lie to get exactly What I wanted, when I wanted it And I wanted it Now, I’m having trouble Differentiating between What I want and what I need To make me happy So instead of thinking, I just act Before I have a chance to contemplate The consequence of action And I will turn off and I will shut down Burying the voices of my conscience hitting ground And I will turn off and I will shut down The chemicals are restless in my head ‘Cause I lie, not because I want to But I seem to need to all the time Yeah, I lie and I don’t even know it Maybe this is all a part of my flawed design And ever since I figured out That I could control other people I’ve had trouble sleeping With both eyes closed And if I asked permission If I make sure it’s okay I promise I won’t slip up this time You can trust me But never take advice from someone Who just admitted to being devious Who just confessed to treason And I would also never ask a question That I cannot ask myself For it might dirty up your conscience ‘Cause I lie, not because I want to But I seem to need to all the time Yeah, I lie and I don’t even know it Maybe this is all a part of my And how can you say those things Why can’t you just believe And how can you say those things And keep a straight face And how can you say those things Why can’t we just believe And how can you say those things And keep a straight face And I will turn off and I will shut down Burying the voices of my conscience hitting ground And I will turn off and I will shut down The chemicals are restless in my head ‘Cause I lie, not because I want to But I seem to need to all the time Yeah, I lie and I don’t even know it Maybe this is all a part of my ‘Cause I lie and if I could control it Maybe I could leave it all behind Yeah, I lie and I don’t even know it Maybe this is all a part of my flawed design

Animal I Have Become – Three Days Grace Lyrics I can’t escape this hell So many times i’ve tried But i’m still caged inside Somebody get me through this nightmare I can’t control myself So what if you can see the darkest side of me? No one will ever change this animal I have become Help me believe it’s not the real me Somebody help me tame this animal (This animal, this animal) I can’t escape myself (I can’t escape myself) So many times i’ve lied (So many times i’ve lied) But there’s still rage inside Somebody get me through this nightmare I can’t control myself So what if you can see the darkest side of me?

	18. This Could Be Anywhere In The World – Alexisonfire Lyrics This town has its claws buried in my neck This town, it takes lives, without mercy, without hate The streets are in distress The sun suffocates behind darkened skies The grass is growing on top of my feet I’m sinking, won’t be long, before I’m too deep to run The line up seems endless Underneath the salvation signs. We are the dead ones, we are the lost cause We are the bend before the break. Our steps seal our fate. [Chorus:] Because this city, this city is haunted By ghosts (ghosts) from broken homes (homes) Because this city, this city is haunted And there’s no hope (hope) left for these souls (souls). Every step I take I leave a small piece Of myself behind. Soon there will be nothing left. The cracks in the pavement, Match the cracks in their weathered skin The sky’s a brick wall The ground’s a juggernaut Each day they get a bit closer Between them, I am caught. I stare in amazement, I can’t believe this is where I live. Every breath I take I feel my lungs seal This breeze feels more like shards of glass I’m more scars than skin [Chorus] Our steps seal fate, our steps seal fate. This is our celebration Come join the lost souls [x2] This city, this city is haunted. Oh! Walk with us. Oh! Down. Walk with us. [Chorus]
