- 1. Sound Effects And Overdramatics – The Used
Lyrics
When the shirt came off, it was all in time
When a m-m-m-minute turned into a mile
And then I broke that grin, and I cut it out
And you got all turned on by the taste of your sin
When I mention blue, all you thought was color
When you mention drugs, all I thought was sober
When your pants came off and I turned you over
When you mention blue
Kill! Smile! Cut it out for me this time!
Smile, haven’t seen him smile in a while
Keep the mask aligned
Get it up in time
There’s a space between valleys
and try and catch a vibe
Make a circle square, a rectangle curve
Use a smile as a noun and I think like a verb
Run quick switch sides
Spill the filled up cancer
And the room is shaking
Now you’re changing places,
and I switched my pace,
and my breathing races when you mention blue
Kill! Smile! Cut it out for me this time!
Smile, haven’t seen him smile in a while
Kill! Smile! Cut it out for me this time! (This is not [x6])
Smile, haven’t seen him smile in a while
Kill, smile, cut out for me cut it cut it out
Smile, cut cut it out for me cut it cut it out
We cut it out!
Kill! Smile! Cut it out for me this time!
Smile, haven’t seen him smile in a while
Kill! Smile! Cut it out for me this time! (This is not [x6])
Smile, haven’t seen him smile in a while
Get down and stay awake
Smile

- 2. I’ve Got Ten Friends And A Crowbar That Says You Won’t Do Jack – Underoath
Lyrics
Carry out the sound
Past our eyes horizon
I’m standing still, I’m standing still
Waiting for this all to change
This night is over
I’m walking out, I’m walking out
What do you expect of me?
Did you think that this was all an excuse for
Hospitality
I know you think its all because of me
At first glance, I’ll breathe in
Leaving myself no room to move, at all
My mind is so flooded and I’m drunk with regret
Swimming in a sea of hope tonight
I find your hand and trace it with mine
As we push away with everything we have
With everything we have left
Ohhh you’re acting on my words
We can start the fire, that will light up the night
No I wouldn’t be too sure of you at all
We’ll watch it burn together on respective sides
(yeah)
We look so good, as we fall
I’ll go ahead and re-elect perfection
Its never looked as good as it does on you right now
I’ll go ahead and make an incision
Doubt you’ll feel anything at all
I’ll fake a fraud forked tongue and I am nervous
At least I can say I made it out this time
I am just fine where you have left me
As for you be sure to cover up your mouth
I don’t know how to say this
My thoughts have just run out

- 3. Our Time Is Now – Story Of The Year
Lyrics
Today will be the day to start rising up and fighting back
And from this moment on we will live our lives
With open hearts and open eyes
Just keep pushing forward
We take control, we take control
Keep fighting onward
We take control, we take control
Keep pushing forward
We take control, we take control
And we will never step down
We won’t fall or hesitate and from this rotting life we disengage
Can we strive to break away and stop wasting time on these insecurities?
Just keep pushing forward
We take control, we take control
Keep fighting onward
We take control, we take control
Keep pushing forward
We take control, we take control
And we will never step down
Our time is now, our time is now, our time is now
We won’t step down, no we won’t step down
No we won’t step down, no we won’t step down
We won’t step down
Because our world is waiting for us to live
Because our world is waiting for us to live
So right now just keep pushing forward
We take control, we take control
Keep fighting onward
We take control, we take control
Just keep pushing forward
We take control, we take control
Keep fighting onward
We take control, we take control
And we’ll never step down
Our time is now, our time is now, yeah

- 4. Stare At The Sun – Thrice
Lyrics
I sit here clutching useless lists,
keys for doors that don’t exist
I crack my teeth on pearls
I tear into the history
Show me what it means to me in this world
Yeah, in this world
‘Cause I am due for a miracle
I’m waiting for a sign
I’ll stare straight into the sun
And I won’t close my eyes
Till I understand or go blind
I see the parts but not the whole
I study saints and scholars both
No perfect plan unfurls
Do I trust my heart or just my mind
Why is truth so hard to find in this world
Yeah in this world
‘Cause I am due for a miracle
I’m waiting for a sign
I’ll stare straight into the sun
And I won’t close my eyes
Till I understand or go blind (till I understand or go blind)
I know that there’s a point I’ve missed
A shrine or stone I haven’t kissed
A scar that never graced my wrist
A mirror that hasn’t met my fist
But I can’t help feeling like I’m
Due for a miracle
I’m waiting for a sign (waiting for a sign)
I’ll stare straight into the sun
And I won’t close my eyes (and I won’t close my eyes)
Due for a miracle
I’m waiting for a sign
I’ll stare straight into the sun
And I won’t close my eyes

- 5. In Transit For You – Matchbook Romance
Lyrics
Dream baby for me
I’ll be waiting here for you
Pack your things, fly to me
Scatter me across the sky
I’ll shine all night
And just like a star
I’ll fall for you
Baby if you want me to
I’d do anything for you
Just say the words and I’d give you the world
Yeah, but that’s not good enough
Starlit sea will be our dance floor
And birds will sing our song
And your scars, your scars will heal
For You
Baby if you want me to
I’d do anything for you
And just say the words, and I’d give you the world
Yeah, but that’s not good enough
And Baby if you wanted me to, why not say so
Let me go cause I cant shine bright enough for you
I shine for you
I fall
Dream baby for me
I’ll be waiting here for you

- 6. War All The Time (Remix) – Thursday
Lyrics
Standing on the edge of the Palisades’ Cliffs
In the shadow of the skyline very far away
Like a lightning rod that couldn’t pull the storm from me
I was 5 years old, my best friend’s older brother died
He fell from these cliffs
The river washed him away, the current pulled him downstream
And our lives float in the headlines, so we park these cars
Parent’s garage
Listen to the lullaby
Of carbon monoxide
War all of the time
In the shadow of the New York skyline
We grew up too fast, falling apart
Like the ashes of American flags
If the sun doesn’t rise
We’ll replace it with an H-bomb explosion
A painted jail cell of light in the sky
Like three-mile-island nightmares on TVs that sing us to sleep
They burn on and on like an oil field
Or a memory of what it felt like
To burn on and on and not just fade away
All those nights in the basement, the kids are still screaming
On and on and on and on
War all of the time
In the shadow of the New York skyline
We grew up too fast, falling apart
Like the ashes of American flags
And we’re blowing in the wind
We don’t know where to land
So we kiss like little kids
We used to be very tall buildings
We’ve been falling for so long
Now your eyes are a sign on the edge of town
They offer a welcome when you are leaving
War all of the time
In the shadow of the New York skyline
We grew up too fast, falling apart
Like the ashes of American flags
The pieces fall it’s like a last day parade
And the fires in our streets start to rage,
So wave to those people who long to wave back
from the fabric of a flag that sang “love all of the time”
War all the time, war all the time
All of the time
War all the time, war all the time
All of the time
All of the time
War all of the time
War all of the time
War all of the time
War all of the time

- 7. Let It Enfold You – Senses Fail
Lyrics
So the lie now is my weapon
Like a bush dried and withered in the sun
With a spark I’ll go up in flames
I’d lay my guts out but they’re too small to see
It’s kinda cute how I pretend to be
Everything but the instrument I am
Peace or happiness
So let it enfold you
A birth to life is what I am after
My first name won’t be my last one
Let the light just drip into your eyes
So it’s true my words are contrived
I tell lies just to get into your mind
I’m as fake as a widow’s smile
This mask of glass is what I choose to wear
So I won’t ever have the need to bear
The total truth to anyone but me
Peace or happiness
So let it enfold you
A birth to life is what I am after
My first name won’t be my last one
Let the light just drip into your eyes
And I am dead, your eyes are light
I’m just a bad actor stuck with a shitty script
All of my lines are cheap and the cast is weak
There was no music for the first time I got kissed
There was no femme fatale, my mistress wasn’t rich
So I’ve been formatted to fit your TV screen
The film went straight to tape
I’ll bow out quietly
So quietly
So quietly
Please do this now I beg
Duct tape my arms and legs
Throw me into the sea
(Please save me, please save me)
Please do this now I beg
Duct tape my arms and legs
Throw me into the sea
(Please save me, please save me)
Now watch the waves eat me
Setting my cold heart free
I’ll wash ashore in weeks
(You can’t save me, can’t save me)
Now watch the waves eat me
Setting my cold heart free
I’ll wash ashore in weeks
(Can’t save me)
You can’t save me now

- 8. The Process – My American Heart
Lyrics
You’ve got this process figured out.
(You’ve got this process figured out.)
You’ve lost the love for yourself now.
Just know that I’m telling you to watch your back
and hold your breath cause
Denial never spoke so loud, so loud.
Take all my self worth away (take all my self worth away).
Just cold with no love in my veins (in my veins)
So show me how to feel nothing.
Show me how to feel saved.
And I promise I will do the same, do the same.
You’ve got no self control, no meaning in your makeup.
You are the reason for the broken hearts you’ve made up.
You’ve got this process figured out.
You’re not so picture perfect,
You’re not so picture perfect,
You’re not so picture perfect now.
Take all my self worth away (take all my self worth away).
Just cold with no love in my veins (in my veins)
So show me how to feel nothing.
Show me how to feel saved.
And I promise I will do the same, do the same.
You’ve got this
This process
So figured out
Take all my self worth away.
Just cold with no love in my veins (in my veins)
So show me how to feel nothing.
Show me how to feel saved.
And I promise I will do the same, do the same.

- 9. The Truth About Heaven – Armor For Sleep
Lyrics
Walk past my grave in the dark tonight,
Saw the stone and the note you left for me,
to answer your question I just had to leave,
I just had to leave,
But that’s not why I’m here,
I came down here to tell you it rains in heaven all day long,
I wanna find you so bad and let you know
I’m miserable up here without you, miserable up here without you
Found my way back in the dark tonight,
Couldn’t wake up not right next to you,
I’d trade in forever to just hear you say the sound of my name,
But that’s not why I’m here,
I came down here to tell you it rains in heaven all day long,
I wanna find you so bad and let you know
I’m miserable up here without you, miserable up here without you
Don’t believe that it’s better when you leave everything behind,
Don’t believe that the weather is perfect the day that you die,
Don’t believe that the weather is perfect the day that you die
I came down here to tell you it rains in heaven all day long (all day long),
I wanna find you so bad and let you know
I’m miserable up here without you, miserable up here without you
[x2]
Don’t believe that the weather is perfect the day that you die

- 10. Red Flag – Billy Talent
Lyrics
Cast off the crutch that kills the pain,
The red flag waving never meant the same
The kids of tomorrow don’t need today,
When they live in the sins of yesterday
Well I’ve never seen us act like this,
Our only hope is the minds of kids,
And they’ll show us a thing or two
Our only weapons are the guns of youth,
It’s only time before they tighten the noose,
And then the hunt will be on for you
The red flag waving never meant the same…
Cast off the crutch that kills the pain,
The red flag waving never meant the same
The kids of tomorrow don’t need today,
When they live in the sins of yesterday
Like the smallest bee packs a sting,
Like a pawn checkmates a king,
We’ll attack at the crack of dawn
Build a ladder if there’s a wall,
Don’t be afraid to slip and fall,
Speak for yourself, or they’ll speak for you
The red flag waving never meant the same…
Cast off the crutch that kills the pain,
The red flag waving never meant the same
The kids of tomorrow don’t need today,
When they live in the sins of yesterday
Like a fire, don’t need water
Like a jury, needs a liar
Like riot, don’t need order
Like a madman, needs a martyr
We don’t need them!
Cast off the crutch that kills the pain,
The red flag waving never meant the same
The kids of tomorrow don’t need today,
When they live in the sins of yesterday
We don’t need them!

- 12. Studying Politics – Emery
Lyrics
It’s like a pencil with erasers at both ends
I want it all but we’re dealing in percents
And these activities that you have engaged in
This is the politics of seeing you dance with him
We began with concluding remarks
Pick up the pieces and examine the parts
Your words always cut when they’re cliché
But here’s my knife because I came for the buffet
[Chorus]
This is the way it goes
With you a part of it
Nervously saying words
That oh-so-tightly fit
A mark beneath the chin (Uh Uh)
I’ve caught you once again
It’s in the way you sell every word and phrase
And leaving me to know how much the meaning weighs
Saying that but meaning this (Uh Uh)
Using hands for emphasis
(Oh Ho) [x7]
You’d like to think that you’re the best part of me
But I confess there is nothing left of you here (nothing left of you here)
These parallels and silly games
Hide your face and say the name
Say the name (say the name)
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
(Ahhhh)
There’s that smile again (there’s that smile again)
You fake it and I follow you right in
What a fool I’ve been
To fall for it each time
[Chorus]

- 13. Medicating – Boys Night Out
Lyrics
When you wake up to white walls and endless halls
there’s an emptiness that echoes through it all
so sit back in your bed, with your mind medicated
and your senses stuck on the sick scent of the dead
You can call for the doctor…it’s all you’ve got anymore.
He’s the ticket to the life you had before.
If I could just make them see that I don’t need this.
Doctor, doctor what am I here for?
Can’t you see that I don’t need this place?
I don’t need these walls, I’m no threat at all
Doctor, doctor what am I here for?
Can’t you see that I don’t need this place?
I don’t need these walls, I’m no threat at all
Is there a way we could maybe, through therapy,
find a way to rate and release me
I just need to be outside, even if supervised
back to my job, back to my life
yes I know what I’ve done and I regret it every day
if I could make things right, you know i’d find a way
but when I wake up to these white walls
and the endless halls of the hospital
I get lost in the emptiness that echoes though it all
Doctor, doctor what am I here for?
Can’t you see that I don’t need this place?
I don’t need these walls, I’m no threat at all
Doctor, doctor what am I here for?
Can’t you see that I don’t need this place?
I don’t need these walls, I’m no threat at all
doctor I can’t thank you enough
(doctor I can’t thank you enough)
doctor you won’t regret this
(doctor you won’t regret this)
doctor I can’t thank you enough
(doctor I can’t thank you enough)
doctor you won’t regret this
(doctor you won’t regret this)
Doctor, doctor what am I here for?
Can’t you see that I don’t need this place?
I don’t need these walls, I’m no threat at all
Doctor, doctor what am I here for?
Can’t you see that I don’t need this place? (I’m no threat at all)
I don’t need these walls, I don’t need this place
Doctor, doctor what am I here for?
Can’t you see that I don’t need this place? (I’m no threat at all)
I don’t need these walls, I’m no threat at all

- 14. Just Like I Remember – Bleed The Dream
Lyrics
You always had a way with words
In letters back and forth we’d send
Back when we were foolish kids
The world was only as big as a heart
And she walks just like I remember
Like something’s on her mind (something’s on her mind)
And she said (and she said) that she would still remember
When everything, everything was fine
I wish everything was fine
We thought we had it figured out
And nothing can stop us now
I wish we were those foolish kids
We could go back and start again
We always knew this night would come
But I could never give you up
So just go on lying
‘Cause we can just pretend
And she walks (and she walks) just like I remember (just like I remember)
Like something’s on her mind (something’s on her mind)
And she said (and she said) that she would still remember
When everything, everything was fine
You always knew it was the right way
The right way to make a point in everything
I’m gonna make up for lost time
I’m gonna make up for this
I’m gonna wake up and rewind
And she walks just like I remember
Something’s on her mind
And she walks (and she walks) just like I remember (just like I remember)
Like something’s on her mind (something’s on her mind)
And she said (and she said) that she would still remember
When everything, everything was fine

- 15. Note To Self – From First To Last
Lyrics
Two roads… split off from here,
and my life goes running in opposite directions.
Exaggerating the barrier between who I am, and who I want to be.
I wanted to be that breath of fresh air,
When everything smelled so insincere.
But this taste still lingers in my mouth,
Deceit has ways of sticking around.
And I’m ready to disappear,
Vacation seems far, seems far from here.
Note to self: I miss you terribly.
This is what we call a tragedy.
Come back to me, come back to me, to me.
Note to self: I miss you terribly.
This is what we call a tragedy.
Come back to me, back to me, to me.
I can feel my mind, wandering again.
Into where I don’t know, and will I ever get home?
Time starts moving, faster than I can.
And I’m sick of this scene,
I need a break from routine.
I can feel my mind, wandering again.
Into where I don’t know, and will I ever get home?
Time starts moving, faster than I can.
And I’m sick of this scene,
I need a break from routine.
Two roads… split off from here,
and my life goes running in opposite directions.
Exaggerating the barrier between who I am, and who I want to be.
Which part of me is lost? I feel so close, and yet I am so far.
Which part of me is lost? I feel so close, and yet I am so…far!…

- 16. Fell In Love With The Game – Blindside
Lyrics
Put the knife in the table
Deck of cards fly across the room
This game has ended someone need to die
Cause I put my life on the table but forgot the risk I assume
Now it’s going down
Fell in love with the game
But I forgot your name
Go ahead please fight me
Cause I’m not scared
Though you stayed the same
I forgot from where I came
I put my life on this table
This is me and I’m lost for words
Now is it me who needs to die
Say something then
Cause I’ll be dead before dawn
If your voice comes unheard
Now I can’t find ground
Fell in love with the game
But I forgot your name
Go ahead please fight me
Cause i’m not scared
Though you stayed the same
I forgot from where i came
And we both stand tall on the table
You take me by the hand and i grab you by the throat
And we came crashing down through the window
On the dirt ground below
And we wrestle in the mud and the blood and the beer
Break my jaw i don’t care
Just stay with me, stay
Look my arms I don’t want to move
Hold me still teach me how to weep
If it’s ok with you I think I’ll stay here
For a little while
Fell in love with the game
But I forgot your name
Go ahead please find me
Cause I’m not scared
Though you stayed the same
I forgot where I came from

- 17. Should Have Stayed In The Shadows – Fear Before The March Of Flames
Lyrics
The party hasn’t started till there’s spike in the punch.
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls.
The party hasn’t started till there’s spike in the punch.
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls.
More ups and downs than a trampoline.
Lets do coke like we’re vacuums
and dance our troubles away
before we drive our cars off bridges.
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls.
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls.
Let’s pry her ribs open, and bathe in her chest.
I’m the life of the party until I sober up.
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
I’m the life of the party until I sober up.
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls.
And when they find her on the shore they’ll say,
And when they find her on the shore they’ll say,
And when they find her on the shore they’ll say,
And when they find her on the shore.
“The shark that got her was an efficient killer.”
“The shark that got her was an efficient killer.”
“The shark that got her was an efficient killer.”
“The shark that got her was an efficient killer.”
Some things, some things, some things are better left unsaid.
Some things, some things, some things are better left off dead.
Some things, some things, some things are better left unsaid.
Some things, some things, some things are better left off dead.
The party hasn’t started till there’s spike in the punch.
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls.
I’m the life of the party until I sober up.
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls.

- 18. Pieces – Dark New Day
Lyrics
Make me
Into the one you want, into the one you need you bend and
Break me
You watch me separate myself from who I really am
To fit into your plan
[CHORUS]
You’re cutting me in two
And ripping me in three
You’re killing with those words you say to me
You’re cutting me in two
And ripping me in three
How many pieces can you take from me
Take it
Whatever’s left is only following routine and
Fake it
And give in to the thoughts that being bought is what I am
To fit into your plan
[CHORUS]
The wheels they turn for you, a deity for two.
Holding on it’s true, won’t bring it back again.
They way you look my friend�it’s closer to the end.
I’m holding out a hand to bring it back again.
You cut me up again, cut down.
You cut me up again, cut down.
You cut me down.
[CHORUS]

- 19. 300 Motion Pictures – Roses Are Red
Lyrics
So honestly.
The way your body tells the story of the summer nights you spent away from me.
And honestly, there is no other place I’d rather be.
So sound the alarms.
It’s going to take more than a miracle to save me from your charms.
So sound the alarms.
It’s going to take more than a miracle.
And every smile that you fake could be your last.
Spend another night here living in the past.
And every smile that you fake could be your last.
Spend another night at home.
And suddenly, I’m seeing clearly in the places that you always kept from me.
And suddenly, there is no other place I’d rather be.

- 21. Bat Country – Avenged Sevenfold
Lyrics
“He who makes a beast out of himself, gets rid of the pain of being a man”
Caught here in a fiery blaze, won’t lose my will to stay.
I tried to drive all through the night,
the heat stroke ridden weather, the barren empty sights.
No oasis here to see, the sand is singing deathless words to me.
Can’t you help me as I’m startin’ to burn (all alone).
Too many doses and I’m starting to get an attraction.
My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone).
No one can save me and you know I don’t want the attention.
As I adjust to my new sights the rarely tired lights will take me to new heights.
My hand is on the trigger I’m ready to ignite.
Tomorrow might not make it but everything’s all right.
Mental fiction, follow me; show me what it’s like to be set free.
Can’t you help me as I’m startin’ to burn (all alone).
Too many doses and I’m starting to get an attraction.
My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone).
No one can save me and you know I don’t want the attention.
So sorry you’re not here I’ve been sane too long my vision’s so unclear.
Now take a trip with me but don’t be surprised when things aren’t what they seem.
Caught here in a fiery blaze, won’t lose my will to stay.
These eyes won’t see the same, after I flip today.
Sometimes I don’t know why we’d rather live than die,
we look up towards the sky for answers to our lives.
We may get some solutions but most just pass us by,
don’t want your absolution cause I can’t make it right.
I’ll make a beast out of myself, gets rid of all the pain of being a man.
Can’t you help me as I’m startin’ to burn (all alone).
Too many doses and I’m starting to get an attraction.
My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone).
No one can save me and you know I don’t want the attention.
So sorry you’re not here I’ve been sane too long my vision’s so unclear.
Now take a trip with me but don’t be surprised when things aren’t what they seem.
I’ve known it from the start all these good ideas will tear your brain apart.
Scared but you can follow me I’m too weird to live but much too rare to die.

- 22. Rose Of Sharyn – Killswitch Engage
Lyrics
Numb and broken,
Here I stand alone,
Wondering what were
The last words I said to you
Hoping, praying that I’ll find a way
To turn back time,
Can I turn back time?
What would I give to behold.
The smile the face of love,
You never left me,
The rising sun
Will always speak your name.
Numb, i’m broken
Here i stand alone.
Wondering the words,
The last words i said to you
It won’t be long
We’ll meet again…
What would i give, to behold
The smile, the face of love?
You never left me
The rising sun
Will always speak your name
It won’t be long, we’ll meet again
Your memory is never passing
It won’t be long, we’ll meet again
My love for you is everlasting.
I mourn for those who never knew you
I mourn for those who never knew you
It won’t be long, we’ll meet again
Your memory is never passing
It won’t be long, we’ll meet again
My love for you is everlasting.
It won’t be long, we’ll meet again..
It won’t be long, we’ll meet again..
It won’t be long, we’ll meet again..
It won’t be long, we’ll meet again..

- 23. Enlightened By The Cold – Shadows Fall
Lyrics
When you never know
Is when it’s always there,
It seemed so clear…
The slightest touch
To catch the breath,
What turns it all around
Single path that I can see,
Emptiness devours me
Enlightened by the cold.
It overcomes the torment.
(What if I could bring you back?)
Enlightened by the cold
Enough to burn through walls
Built on anguish
Can I be revived?
Let it hit with force
Strong enough to blind.
The numbness heals.
My worth is only defined
by the next disaster

- 24. I wanna Hear Another Fast Song – Saosin
Lyrics
We are in tune with old, now feel-feel it.
Feel better supposed to
Say it was something new, one by one
(All we are is no one)
This won’t mean a thing.
I overheard you once, this has gone on before.
Kinda like the way you move with me
We are accounted for.
We seem so far away from,
These things we used to know.
We seem so far away from, everything new.
We are in tune with old, now feel-feel it.
They all will say they broke it up
Say it was something new
No one needs to know
We seem so far away from,
This won’t mean a thing
I overheard you once, this has gone on before.
Kinda like the way you move with me
We are accounted for.
We seem so far away from,
These things we used to know.
We seem so far away from, everything new
All we are is no one (no one)
This won’t mean a thing.
We seem so far away from, these things we used to know.
We seem so far away from, everything new

- 25. Unretrofied – Dillinger Escape Plan
Lyrics
Is the can half diseased or is the disease half canned?
And is the man half machine or is the machine half man?
I’m unretrofied for you.
Is the can half diseased or is the disease half canned?
Or is the man half machine or the machine half man?
I’m unretrofied for you, so come on, so come on.
I’ll just fake it in the end,
Just save it for a new song and leave dead in the end.
Time is wasted in the end,
Wood paneled wagon carpool dragons killing me again.
Now they’re looting our holes until there is nothing left,
Calloused intentions it seems cowards invention at best,
I’m unretrofied for you.
Now they’re looting our holes until there is nothing left,
Calloused intentions it seems cowards invention at best,
I’m unretrofied for you, so come on, so come on.
I’ll just fake it in the end,
Just save it for a new song and leave dead in the end.
Time is wasted in the end,
Wood paneled wagon carpool dragons killing me again – we’re all dead.
Jesus can’t play the music ’cause he’s nailed to the cross,
And over gnawed off feet I find that I can’t walk,
I can’t walk,
I can’t even walk.
I’ll just fake it in the end,
Just save it for a new song and leave dead in the end.
Time is wasted in the end,
Wood paneled wagon carpool dragons killing me again.
I’ll just fake it in the end,
Just save it for a new song and leave dead in the end.
Time is wasted in the end,
Wood paneled wagon carpool dragons killing me again – we’re all dead.

- 26. On Wings Of Lead – Bleeding Through
Lyrics
Nothing was supposed
To hurt like this
Missing you was always
One more kiss
Now there’s nothing
That I can do
One more nail in the coffin
And it’s all for you
Always were and always
Were a simple love story
You were everything
I ever hoped and dreamed
Drown me in a pool
Of my blood
It’s getting harder
Just to breathe
I’ll suffocate you faster
Just so you can’t see
So you can’t see me sleep
It’s getting harder
Just to say the right things
I’ve seen the angel’s face
And I’ve heard her sing to me
From my reflection on this razor blade
I’ve heard ten thousand dying screams
And they’re calling me
The day will break on this saddest day
So don’t let me wake
I’ve heard this all before
And I’ve seen this over and over again
Don’t let me wake
Drown me in a pool
Of my blood
It’s getting harder
Just to breathe
I’ll suffocate you faster
Just so you can’t see
So you can’t see me sleep
So you can’t see me sleep
So you can’t see me sleep
So you can’t see me sleep
The day will break on this saddest day
So don’t let me wake
I’ve heard this all before
And I’ve seen this over and over again
Don’t let me wake
Nothing was supposed
To hurt like this
And missing you was always
One more kiss
And now there’s nothing
That I can do
There’s just one more nail in the coffin
There’s just one more nail
And it’s all for you
I’ve seen the angel’s face
And I’ve heard her sing to me
From my reflection on this razor blade
I’ve heard ten thousand dying screams
And they’re calling me
The day will break on this saddest day
So don’t let me wake
I’ve heard this all before
And I’ve seen this over and over again
Don’t let me wake

- 27. Roses For The Dead – Funeral For A Friend
Lyrics
Just to say we’re sorry,
For the black eyes and bleeding lips.
And it’s hard to forget
How many lies we’ve told.
Or how old we’d grow,
Before I said goodbye.
So let’s scrape our knees on the playground.
It’s not your fault,
You feel okay.
It’s too late in the day.
It’s not your fault,
You feel betrayed.
You can’t come out to play.
I never listened to a word you never said.
I never listened to a word you never said.
Wasting the hours now,
We’re all suckers for tragedies.
And start this over again,
And you bring us to our knees.
As sunrise comes,
And the story will sell,
A few hundred papers,
So we’ll follow you up.
It’s not your fault,
You feel okay.
It’s too late in the day.
It’s not your fault,
You feel betrayed.
You can’t come out to play.
I never listened to a word you never said.
I never listened to a word you never said.
So raise your hands up high,
And let this rain pour on.
So raise your hands up high,
And wash us away.
Like innocence and childbirth,
You look just like your mother
And you look just like your father.
Forgive him our father,
Your son is smiling,
So lay roses around you.

- 28. Bayonetwork – Norma Jean
Lyrics
We walked on glass all day long
With eyes rolled back
It came with smiles, it came with gestures
And it came with motives
Investing flowers in one hand
And a blade in the other
This is between me
And this blade and my heart
Distributing rusty knives
In these countless attractive letters
With a directional diagram of a guilty heart
‘Insert knife here’
Lack of thought on this subject
Has attested catastrophic
Come one, come all, introduce knife to heart
With our eyes rolled back

- 29. Severed Ties Yield Severed Heads – It Dies Today
Lyrics
The eve of my collapse,
I was feeling slightly murderous,
So I intercepted Cupid’s arrow,
With passion and precision,
I severed the pig’s head
[Chorus:]
Its the way she looks at me,
And possesses me to collect the head of anyone,
Collect the head of those who look her way,
Its the way her whispers seem to kiss my ear,
I’d collect the head of anyone,
Collect the head of those graced by her voice.
Her mournful screams were like a melody,
Of unimaginable beauty,
I forced her hand in mine,
As we danced to her song of lament.
Oh how I reveled in the gratification,
This slaying of a most loathesome one.
[Chorus]
Dance, dance with me tonight,
So you may see what our “truest” love has made of me.
[Chorus X2]

- 30. She Calls Home – The Bled
Lyrics
I’ve got such a filthy heart sometimes.
when you take me to that place and I never wanna leave.
In the middle of the night.
when everyone is sounds asleep.
where will you be?
you’ll be waiting with a gasmask in the dark.
I cant stop myself.
she calls home when im not there so I wont freeze.
I need to learn how to breathe.
when I’m inside you.
Sever the ripcord, sever it.
I drift away, further down.
Inside it gets so fucking cold.
I come to you to feel helpless.
further down.
you know it’s hard to free myself and you just keep driving until its over.
until they swallow every last drop of me and you.
I need to learn how to breathe.
further down.
I reach inside.
further down.
I cant hide.
I tried to show you that there’s nothing you can take away from me.
nothing you can take away from me.
kill me.
you’re such a beautiful liar.
take me to the place where I’m king.
nothing like the way that you wanted.
When you left me behind.

- 31. Heaven – Opiate For The Masses
Lyrics
Thank you so much for your
Confidence in me
But you have been so wrong
So wrong
I have tried so hard
To find your god in me for so long
So long, so long
I’m right there with you
I’m at your service
You told me “NO”
And so I don’t deserve this
I can’t get to heaven
‘Cause heaven’s a place
That don’t want me
Point your finger
And I’ll pay attention
What more do you want from me
Uh huh
All you showed me
Was your thought provention
And it has no harmony
I was there with you
I was your servent
You told me “NO”
And so i don’t deserve this
Can’t get to heaven
‘Cause heaven’s a place
That don’t want me
I can’t get to heaven
Well heavens a place
I dont wanna be
Can’t get to heaven
‘Cause heaven’s a place
That don’t want me
I can’t get to heaven
Well heaven’s a place
I dont wanna be
I can’t get to heaven
I can’t get to heaven

- 32. Give it All – Rise Against
Lyrics
Break through the undertow,
your hands I can’t seem to find,
Pollution burns my tongue,
cough words I can’t speak so I
Stop my struggling,
then I float to the surface,
Fill my lungs with air,
then let it out
I give it all, these is the reason why I sing,
So give it all, and it’s these reasons that belong to me
Rock bottoms where we live,
and still we dig these trenches,
To bury ourselves in them,
backs breaking under tension
For far too long these voices,
muffled by distances,
It’s time to come to our senses,
up from the dirt
We give it all, these is the reason why I sing,
So give it all, and it’s these reasons that belong to me
Breathe (breathe),
the air we give (give),
the life we live (live),
our pulses racing distances(breathe),
so wet my tongue (give),
break into song (live),
through seas of competition
So please believe your eyes, a sacrifice,
Is not what we had in our minds,
I’m coming home tonight, home tonight
We give it all, these is the reason why I sing,
So give it all, and it’s these reasons that belong to me
Today I offer all myself to this I’m living for my dying wish,
I give it all, now there’s a reason, there’s a reason, to give it all

- 33. Accidents – Alexisonfire
Lyrics
I’m not sure what’s worse
The waiting or the waiting room
“You’re next sir” becomes a cruel taunt to you
recycled air, the smell of sleep and disinfectant
Your God is a two door elevator
Do they even cure you
(cut me open drug me)
Or is it just to humor us before we die
(repair all my defects)
If only we could heal ourselves
We wouldn’t.. need to be hooked up to these machines
Whoa whoa whoa…
Let’s redefine (6x)
What it means to heal
Do they even cure you
(cut me open drug me)
Or is it just to humor us before we die
(repair all my defects)
If Only we could heal ourselves
We wouldn’t.. need to be hooked up to these machines
Whoa whoa whoa…

- 34. Effigy – The Smashup
Lyrics
Hang this man
Burn this man
Put to death my imperfection
Build me now, a recreation
Pore/scar/wart/mole/roll/style – a straying eye
God is in the details
And don’t forget the darkened husks of azure eyes
Somewhere my scarecrow is watching and waiting
Crash through the treeline and hoist him up shaking
Effigy
I burn the waste of me
I douse in kerosine these eye of birthstone December cauterize
Blight the sky and send my sins on high
In plumes the man I knew takes flight in
Flickered release of beautiful butane blue
Unwashed mass of follicles and folly
Scare, pores and poor decisions
Raise me up: twist the noose:
my abuses are never more to slain
Another life – my war crimes excreted
Somewhere my scarecrow is writhing and wailing
Bellow the furnace and smell my sins melting
Chorus
Skull heal
Skin peel
Bones wood
Be good
Ember to mannequin of dry timber
Tin hips and leather lips smooth from my lies
My former self painstakingly rendered
Crab-louse coat shorn from wriggling wasteflesh
Wisp and wither
Chorus

Lyrics
My world be ashes, and a casket for all I want.
The apocalypse, this way comes.
So come.
Sing this song.
Repent: Kingdom
The end is here and she will not remain silent.
The Devil is in Atlanta.
City: Surrounded
Army: Surrounded
Fort: Surrounded

- 36. Complete Heat – Fight Paris
Lyrics
You got it comin’ and you don’t even know it
In just a minute I’ll make you show it
All those things that you try to deny
Oh baby, baby, baby, it’s just a matter of time
Before I take your hand and lead the way
Upstairs to the bedroom to play
Like BK you can have it your way
So c’mon baby, baby, baby don’t be afraid
Cause I’m, gonna give it to you just how you want it
And I’m, gonna give it to you just how you need
Cause I’m, gonna hit you from every position
And I, won’t stop until we’re shakin’ the sheets

We’re ’bout take this party outta sight because the bed’s over there you’ll see
So just shake your ass on over there and wait for me

From your head to your feet I’ll make you feel the heat
And give me some lovin’ that’s sticky sweet
Oh, it’s on

From your head to your feet I’ll make you feel the heat
And give me some lovin’ that’s sticky sweet
We’ll start with the shirt ’cause it’s comin’ off first
It’s lookin’ like that bra’s about to burst
Move to the back where I’ll pop that strap
Oh baby, baby, baby I’m about to attack
Next thing I’m gonna slide on downstairs
But I ain’t lickin’ baby, no not down there
You gotta trust me ’cause I know you won’t care
Baby, baby, baby I’ll have to seein’ in pairs
Cause I’m gonna give it to you just how you want it
And I’m gonna give it to you just how you need
Cause I’m gonna hit you from every position
And I won’t stop until we’re shakin’ the sheets
The south is rising if you know what I mean
I got a feelin’ I’m gonna fit like a key
And even if it’s a tight squeeze
Oh baby, baby, baby that’s between you and me

From your head to your feet I’ll make you feel the heat
And give you some lovin’, that’s sticky sweet
Oh, it’s on
I’m gonna rock you all night long
From your head to your feet I’ll make you feel the heat
And give you some lovin’, give you some lovin’,
Give you some lovin’, give you some lovin’ that’s sticky sweet

- 37. Sell Me Out – Bloodsimple
Lyrics
You’re all I’ve known
All I adore,
You take all my scars and break my heart
And I …
Can never go back, never go back, never go back,
Never look back, never… look… back… AGAIN
This is the last time you try to
Justify for all the reasons, you’d sell me out
Your all my heart
My flesh and blood
Nights so lonely without you around me
Never go back, never go back, never go back
Never look back, never… look… back.. AGAIN
This is the last time you try to
Justify for all the reasons you’d sell me out
Never go back, never go back, never go back
Never look back, never look back.. AGAIN
This is the last time you try to
Ease my mind, for all the reasons you’d sell me out
I will be you garden
Plant your bones
I will be your sovereign kingdom.
This is the last time you try to
Justify for all the reasons you’d sell me out
This is the last time you try to
Ease my mind, for all the reasons you’d sell me out
You’d sell me out
You’d sell me out
You sold out

- 38. Share Ethic – Most Precious Blood
Lyrics
The bearer of burden returns with inability to cope with separation anxiety.
It remains to torture me until I breathe and don’t scream.
It stays to chip away at me until I sleep and don’t dream.
Roots from my feet sprung like barbed wire and serpent’s tongue.
Rendering me still, a quadrapalegic in an iron lung.
Roots from my feet sprung like barbed wire and serpent’s tongue.
Rendering me still, a quadrapalegic in an iron lung.
On my back with scavengers above, The scent of carrion rotting love.
Master your fear. (X4)
