H.I.M Wings of A Butterfly Lyrics




Heaven ablaze in our eyes
We're standing still in time
The blood on our hands is the wine
We offer as sacrifice

[Chorus]
Come on, and show them your love
Rip out the wings of a butterfly
For your soul, my love
Rip out the wings of a butterfly
For your soul

This endless mercy mile
We're crawling side by side
With hell freezing over in our eyes
Gods kneel before our crime

[Chorus]
Come on lets show, them your love
Rip out the wings of a butterfly
For your soul, my love
Rip out the wings of a butterfly
For your soul
(Rip out the wings of a butterfly)
Don't let go
(Rip out the wings of a butterfly)
For your soul

[Chorus]
Come on, and show them your love
Rip out the wings of a butterfly
For your soul, my love
Rip out the wings of a butterfly
For your soul
(Rip out the wings of a butterfly)
Don't let go
(Rip out the wings of a butterfly) [x2]

For your soul

How To Save A Life
~The Fray

Step one you say we need to talk
He walks you say sit down it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
And you begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Let him know that you know best
Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And pray to God he hears you

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

How to save a life
How to save a life

Blue October Hate Me Lyrics


I have to block out thoughts of you so I dont lose my head
They crawl in like a cockroach leaving babies in my bed
Dropping little reels of tape to remind me that Im alone
Playing movies in my head that make a porno feel like home
There's a burning in my pride, a nervous bleeding in my brain
An ounce of peace is all I want for you. will you never call again?
And will you never say you that love me just to put in my face?
And will you never try to reach me? it is I that wanted space

Hate me today
Hate me tomorrow
Hate me for all the things i didn't do for you

Hate me in ways
Yeah ways hard to swallow
Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you

Im sober now for 3 whole months its one accomplishment that you helped me with
The one thing that always tore us apart is the one thing I wont touch again
And in a sick way I want to thank you for holding my head up late at night
While I was busy waging wars on myself, you were trying to stop the fight
You never doubted my warped opinions on things like suicidal hate
You made me compliment myself when it was way too hard to take
So Ill drive so ****ing far away that I never cross your mind
And do whatever it takes in your heart to leave me behind

Hate me today
Hate me tomorrow
Hate me for all the things I didnt do for you

Hate me in ways
Yeah ways hard to swallow
Hate me so you can finally see whats good for you

And with a sad heart I say bye to you and wave
Kicking shadows on the street for every mistake that I had made
And like a baby boy I never was a man
Until I saw your blue eyes cry and I held your face in my hand
And then i fell down yelling make it go away!
Just make her smile come back and shine just like it used to be
And then she whispered how can you do this to me?

Hate me today
Hate me tomorrow
Hate me for all the things I didnt do for you

Hate me in ways
Yeah ways hard to swallow
Hate me so you can finally see whats good for you
for you x3

Almost Easy by Avenged Sevenfold

I feel insane
Every single time I'm asked to compromise
'Cause I'm afraid and stuck in my ways
And that's the way it stays
So how long did I expect love to outweigh ignorance?
By the look on your face I may have forced the scale to tip

I'm not insane, I'm not insane
I'm not insane, I'm not... not insane

(Mother)
Come back to me it's almost easy
(Said it all)
Come back again it's almost easy

Shame pulses through my heart from the things I've done to you
It's hard to face but the fact remains that this is nothing new
I left you bound and tied with suicidal memories
Selfish beneath the skin but deep inside I'm not insane

I'm not insane, I'm not insane
I'm not insane, I'm not... not insane

(Mother)

Come back to me it's almost easy
(Said it all)
Come back again it's almost easy
(You'll learn your lesson)
Come back to me it's almost easy
(But first you fall)
Come back again it's almost easy

Now that I've lost you it kills me to say
(Hurts to say)
I've tried to hold on as you've slowly slipped away
I'm losing the fight, I've treated you so wrong now let me make it right
(Make it alright)

I'm not insane, I'm not insane
(Ha ha ha ha ha)
I'm not insane, I'm not... Not insane

(Mother)
Come back to me it's almost easy
(Said it all)
Come back again it's almost easy
(You'll learn your lesson)
Come back to me it's almost easy
(But still you fall)
Come back again it's almost easy

great song from one of my all time fav bands!!!

Destroyer

He spent his life
A silent sentinel
For all to fear
He walks, he talks, he thinks, he feels,
But no one dare go near
He takes in all he sees
Nothing escapes his gaze
And when he strikes
He strikes for right
A glorious sight

Destroyer, destroyer, destroyer
He's in town

He came to be
From a grand mistake
A mystical charade
Created to decide the good
And bring repercussive aid
As awareness filled his fame
He examined those who leered
The he cleeved the air
With his fiery stare
Rend all those there

Destroyer, destroyer, destroyer
He's in town

A day will come
You'll be drawn into
The center of your town
And come upon a mass of steel
That cracks the very ground
Prepare to meet your judge
Don't think to run away
Just pray your face
Holds no disgrace
For the deadly ace

Destroyer, destroyer, destroyer
He's in
Destroyer, destroyer, destroyer
He's in town
Oh, he's town
You'd better stay out of his way
He's gonna kick your ass
Yeahhh!

Destroyer

Mrs. Rita

You can see it in her letters
On the paper with her pen
Her response is getting stranger
I think she's coming round again
So tell me Mrs. Rita
What's it say in my tarot
Read my palm and tell me
Why do lovers come and go

Is she coming round for me once again
Around or was that just the end
I just hope she's coming round again

I've been keeping myself busy
With my books and with my tapes
Every day's much better
Since I've slowed my drinking pace
There's no swimming in the bottle
It's just someplace we all drown
I lost myself in sorrow
lost my confidence in doubt

Is she coming 'round for me once again
Around or was that just the end
I just hope she's coming round again

Get in the car and drive through town
Down the block and back around
Pretending that she's there with me we drive
Gone forever...

My patience keeps me plaintive
My high hopes keep me alone
My lover's will is shaken
I wish she would just come home
So tell me Mrs. Rita
What's it say in my tarot
Read my palm and tell me
Why do lovers come and go

Is she coming round for me once again
Around or was that just the end
I just hope she's coming round again

Is she coming round for me once again
Around or was that just the end
I just hope she's coming round again

I just hope she's coming round
I just hope she's coming round
I just hope she's coming round
I just hope she's coming round
I just hope she's coming round
I just hope she's coming round
I just hope she's coming round
I just hope she's coming round

Cajun Song

Well, she's leaving today I do know so far away
I'm feeling so blue and it shows in every single way
Once that girl she was mine for such a short time
We used to spend every night now all I do is cry

They say you can't miss something that you've never had
So tell me why
Why I could feel so bad...

They say you can't miss something that you've never had
So tell me why
Why I could feel so bad...

We used to walk down the path just like lovers do
She'd hold my hand and we'd laugh
Then i'd stare in her eyes they were blue
Once that girl she was mine for such a short time
We used to spend every night now all I do is cry

They say you can't miss something that you've never had
So tell me why
Why I could feel so bad
Why I could feel so bad
Why I could feel so bad...

Idiots Are Taking Over

It's not the right time to be sober
Now the idiots have taken over
Spreading like a social cancer, is there an answer?

Mensa membership conceding
tell me why and how are all the stupid people breeding
Watson, it's really elementary
the industrial revolution
has flipped the b i t c h on evolution
the benevolent and wise are being thwarted, ostracized, what a bummer
the world keeps getting dumber
insensitivity is standard and faith is being fancied over reason

Darwin's rollin' over in his coffin
the fittest are surviving much less often
now everything seems to be reversing, and it's worsening
someone flopped a steamer in the gene pool
now angry mob mentality's no longer the exception, it's the rule
and i'm startin' to feel a lot like Charlton Heston
stranded on a primate planet
apes and orangutans that ran it to the ground
with generals and the armies that obeyed them
followers following fables
philosophies that enable them to rule without regard

there's no point for democracy when ignorance is celebrated
political scientists get the same one vote as some Arkansas inbred
majority rule, don't work in mental institutions
sometimes the smallest softest voice carries the grand biggest solutions

what are we left with?
a nation of god-fearing pregnant nationalists
who feel it's their duty to populate the homeland
pass on traditions
how to get ahead religions
And prosperity via simpleton culture

the idiots are takin over
the idiots are takin over
the idiots are takin over
the idiots are takin over
the idiots are takin over
the idiots are takin over
the idiots are takin over
the idiots are takin over

Screamin' For Change

Hey mister, can you spare some change?
What, what... what do you want from me, are you hungry?
No, i'm not hungry.
I was just wondering if you could spare a quarter, or a dime?
Uh, the time... it's about 3:30.
Uh no, not the time... i need a nickel or a dollar, my car's broke.

Screamin' for change!

Lady, can you spare any change?
{hey lady, can you spare a quarter?}

I said lady, can you spare any change?
[you get away from me, you're filthy, go away!]

I said lady, can you spare any change?
{well then how 'bout givin' me one of those cigarettes?}

I said lady, can you spare any change? [no]
Change [no], change [no!], change...

Screamin' for change!
Screamin' for change!
Screamin' for change!
Screamin' for change!

Linoleum

Possessions never meant anything to me
I'm not crazy
Well that's not true, I've got a bed, and a guitar
And a dog named Bob who pisses on my floor
That's right, I've got a floor
So what, so what, so what?

I've got pockets full of kleenex and lint and holes
Where everything important to me
Just seems to fall right down my leg
And on to the floor

My closest friend linoleum
Linoleum
Supports my head, gives me something to believe

That's me on the beachside combing the sand
Metal meter in my hand
Sporting a pocket full of change

That's me on the street with a violin under my chin
Playing with a grin, singing gibberish

That's me on the back of the bus
That's me in the cell
That's me inside your head
That's me inside your head
That's me inside your head

One Way Ticket To F*ckneckville

No sleep 'till F*ckneckville
It's kinda funny, you may not realize it until
Phone calls stop, can't get laid
You find out where the parties were some time the next day

One way ticket to seclusion
Now you lose it all
One way ticket to alienation
You're an inside joke

Is everybody supposed to be
Impressed with your ability
To make us feel less significant than you?
We're all chippin' in to purchase you
A one way first class ticket out of town

Millions sold, mega star
There's a million assholes with ten million guitars
Enjoy it now, soon it ends
Suddenly you find yourself without any friends

One way ticket to isolation
You can hang with you
You've been given a citation
For excessive social faux pas and obnoxiousness

Go ahead keep telling us your
15 minute stories about
What you had for breakfast and for lunch
We're all chippin' in for one big humble pie
We're gonna smash it in your face

Go ahead tell us about your
Last week sold out concert
And how your new record's gonna top the charts
We don't care about your expenses
We just wanna have a laugh at your expense

Glass War

Glass war, glass war, glass war, glass war,
it's a glass war
Glass war, glass war,
it's a glass war
Glass war, glass war

It's a glass war
'Cause you can see right through the poison
It's a glass war
'Cause we all know the activities
It's a glass war
'Cause it's made of smoke and mirrors
It's a glass war
It's a glass war
It's a glass war
'Cause only poor men are dying in the
Gas war
'Cause we know why it was started
It's an ass war
'Cause the president's an asshole
It's an ass war
It's a glass war
It's a gas war
'Cause the starters are all victims of the
Glass war
The slogan men were starters of the
Last war
Now the southern men are starters of the
Glass war
It's a Glass War
It's a Glass war

And the shards are gonna start another glass war
And the shards are gonna start another glass war
And the shards are gonna start another glass war
And the shards are gonna start another glass war
And the shards are gonna start another glass war
It's a glass war
It's a glass war

Go Your Own Way

Lovin you isn't the right thing to do
How can I ever change things that I feel?
If I could, baby I'd give you my world
But how can I when you won't take it from me

You can go your own way
You can call it on the lonely days
You can go your own way

Tell me why everything turns around
Backin' up, shaking it's all you wanna do
If I could, baby I'd give you my socks
Open up, everything's waiting for you

You can go your own way
You can call it on the lonely days
You can go your own way

Ruby Soho

Echoes of reggae comin' through my bedroom wall
Havin' a party up next door but i'm sittin here all alone
Two lovers in the bedroom and the other started to shout
All i got is this blank stare and that don't carry no clout at All

Destination unknown
Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby Soho

He's singin and she's there to lend a hand
He's seen his name on the marquee but she will never understand
Once again he's leavin' and she's there with a tear in her eye
Embraces with a warm gesture it's time, time to say goodbye

Destination unknown
Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby Soho

Ruby's heart ain't beatin' cause she knows the feelin' is gone
She's not the only one who knew there's somethin' wrong
Little lover's in the distance as she wipes a tear from her eye
Ruby's fading out, she disappears, it's time, time to say Goodbye

Destination unknown
Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby Soho ...

Train In Vain

You say you stand by your man
Tell me something I don't understand
You said you loved me and that's a fact
and then you left me, said you felt trapped

Well some things you can't explain away
But the heartache's in me till this day

You didn't you stand by me
No, not at all
You didn't stand by me
No way

All the times
When we were close
I'll remember these things the most
I see all my dreams come tumbling down
I can't be happy without you round

So alone I keep the wolves at bay
and there is only one thing that I can say

You didn't you stand by me
No, not at all
You didn't stand by me
No way

You must explain why this must be
Did you lie when you spoke to me

Did you stand by me
No, not at all

Now I got a job
But it don't pay
I need new clothes
I need somewhere to stay
But without all of these things I can do
But without your love I won't make it through

But you don't understand my point of view
I suppose there's nothing I can do

You didn't you stand by me
No, not at all
You didn't stand by me
No way

You didn't you stand by me
No, not at all
You didn't stand by me
No way

You must explain why this must be
Did you lie when you spoke to me

Did you stand by me
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Did you stand by me
No way
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Did you stand by me
No way

Bodies

She was a girl from Birmingham
She just had an abortion
She was case of insanity
Her name was Pauline, she lived in a tree

She was a no one who killed her baby
She sent her letters from the country
She was an animal
She was a bloody disgrace

Body! I'm not an animal
Body! I'm not an animal

Dragged on a table in factory
Illegitimate place to be
In a packet in a lavatory
Die little baby screaming
Body screaming f-cking bloody mess
Not an animal
It's an abortion

Body! I'm not animal
Mummy! I'm not an abortion

[Spoken]
Throbbing squirm,
gurgling bloody mess
I'm not a discharge
I'm not a loss in protein
I'm not a throbbing squirm

F-ck this and f-ck that
F-ck it all and f-ck a f-cking brat
She don't wanna baby that looks like that
I don't wanna baby that looks like that
Body, I'm not an animal
Body, an abortion

Body! I'm not an animal
Body! I'm not an animal
An animal
I'm not an animal.....
I'm not an abortion.....

Mummy! UGH!

I Want You


The guilty undertaker sighs,
The lonesome organ grinder cries,
The silver saxophones say I should refuse you.
The cracked bells and washed-out horns
Blow into my face with scorn,
But it's not that way,
I wasn't born to lose you.
I want you, I want you,
I want you so bad,
Honey, I want you.

The drunken politician leaps
Upon the street where mothers weep
And the saviors who are fast asleep,
They wait for you.
And I wait for them to interrupt
Me drinkin' from my broken cup
And ask me to
Open up the gate for you.
I want you, I want you,
I want you so bad,
Honey, I want you.

Now all my fathers, they've gone down
True love they've been without it.
But all their daughters put me down
'Cause I don't think about it.

Well, I return to the Queen of Spades
And talk with my chambermaid.
She knows that I'm not afraid
To look at her.
She is good to me
And there's nothing she doesn't see.
She knows where I'd like to be
But it doesn't matter.
I want you, I want you,
I want you so bad,
Honey, I want you.

Now your dancing child with his Chinese suit,
He spoke to me, I took his flute.
No, I wasn't very cute to him,
Was I?
But I did it, though, because he lied
Because he took you for a ride
And because time was on his side
And because I . . .
I want you, I want you,
I want you so bad,
Honey, I want you.

Road Of Truth

I went to my old house today
It looked like nothing much had changed
Kids running in the street,jumping rope
And playing hide n' go seek
There's a big fence around my house
I guess it's there to keep the wetbacks out
I still see myself after school
Waiting for my daddy help him with his tools
Summer we sit out on the swing
Drinking iced tea and then we'd sing

The road of truth is hard to find
Make the choice inside your heart
And see clear road till the end of time

Well it feels like just the other day
Things don't really ever change
The road still ends at the river
And the milk i hear still delivered
There's alot more cops around
I guess it keeps a quiet town
I still see myself after school
Waiting for my daddy help him with his tools
Summer we sit out on the swing
Drinking iced tea and then we'd sing

The road of truth is hard to find
Make the choice inside your heart
And see clear road till the end of time

Twelve years older on the battered road
The song they sang never got old
Always worried about my fate
It's a bumpy road but i still sang

The road of truth is hard to find
Make the choice inside your heart
And see clear road till the end of time

The road of truth is hard to find
Make the choice inside your heart
And see clear road till the end of time

The road of truth

My feet is my only carriage,
So Ive got to push on through.
But while Im gone, I mean:
Everythings gonna be all right!
