Prove Yourself

I can't afford to breathe in this town
Nowhere to sit without a gun in my hand
Hooked back up to the cathode ray
I'm better off dead
I'm better off dead
I'm better off

Prove yourself
Prove yourself
Prove yourself

I wanna breathe, I wanna grow
I'd say I want it but I don't know how
I work, I bleed, I beg and pray
But I'm better off dead
I'm better off dead
I'm better off

Prove yourself
Prove yourself
Prove yourself

Why?

I'm better off dead
I'm better off dead
I'm better off

Prove yourself
Prove yourself
Prove yourself

Prove yourself
Prove yourself
Prove yourself

I Want To Die A Beautiful Death

Everybody here in the small town
Looks used and abused today
Everybody here is looking outside
Man, seems like nothing ever changes
Everybody they just want to have a good time
Everybody they just want to forget
Everybody wants to feel like they did when the sky looked good
And the world was perfect

I don't care
I just want to die pretty
I just want to get lost in the motion
I just want to get lost in my beautiful self
I just want to get lost in the city
I don't want to live forever
I want to die a beautiful death

Yeah, I got to get the hell out of this town
Everybody's looking upside down
Everybody is looking for the same thing
Really seems like nothing ever changes
Everybody they just want to buy a slow ride
Everybody they just want to get by
Everybody wants to feel like they did when the sky looked high
And the world was simple

I don't care
I just want to die pretty
I just want to get lost in the motion
I just want to get lost in my beautiful self
I just want to get lost in the city
I don't want to live forever
I want to die a beautiful death
I want to die a beautiful death
I just want to die a beautiful death
I just want to die a beautiful death
I just want to die pretty

(oh, oh)
I just want to die pretty
Just want to die pretty
Sometimes I just want to die

I just want to get lost in the moment
I just want to get lost in the city tonight
I just want to get lost inside myself
I don't care about nothing
I just want to get lost in the motion
I just want to get lost in my beautiful self
I just want to get lost in the city
I don't want to live forever
I want to die a beautiful death
I want to die a beautiful death
Yes, I want to die a beautiful death
I just want to die a beautiful death
I just want to die pretty

Meg White
You’re alright
In fact, I think you’re pretty swell
Can’t you tell?

Meg White
Such a pretty thing
I saw your face on the cover
Of a magazine

Some day (some day)
I’d like (I’d like)
To take a walk with you
Maybe ride our bikes down by the sea side

Meg White
I saw you on the big screen
Oh, Jack was king, but you stole the scene

Meg White
Baby, you’re the bomb
Oh, Jack is great don’t get me wrong
But this is your song

Some day (some day)
I’d like (I’d like)
To take a walk with you
Talk about most anything you’d like to talk about
And watch the sun going down
Going down

Playin’ those drums is hard to do
It’s true
And nobody plays them quite like you do

Meg White
You’re alright
In fact, I think you’re pretty swell
Can’t you tell?

Meg White
Such a pretty thing
I saw your face on the cover of a magazine

Some day (some day)
I’d like (I’d like)
To take a walk with you
Maybe ride our bikes down by the sea side
And watch the sun going down
Going down

Time Bomb

If you wanna make the move
Then you better come in
It's just the ability to reason
That wears so thin
Living and dying and the stories that are true
Secret to a good life is knowing when you're through

Black coat, white shoes, black hat, cadillac
Yeah, the boy's a time bomb
Black coat, white shoes, black hat, cadillac
Yeah, the boy's a time bomb

Well, he's back in the hole where they got him living
Like a rat but he's smarter than that nine lives
Like a cat fifteen years old,take him to the youth authority home
First thing you learn is that you got to make it
In this world alone

Black coat, white shoes, black hat, cadillac
Yeah, the boy's a time bomb
Black coat, white shoes, black hat, cadillac
Yeah, the boy's a time bomb

Now he's gotten out, hes gotten free, he's gotta go, got a car
He's 21 years old he's runnin' numbers from the bar
His pager's beepin' he's gettin' deep in
Whatever he can move on in you know that kid's a creepin'

Black coat, white shoes, black hat, cadillac
Yeah, the boy's a time bomb
Black coat, white shoes, black hat, cadillac
The boy's a time bomb
Yeah the boy’s a time bomb

Yeah!

Tears come from the razor that's been tattooed below
His eye his mother cries she knows that he is strong enough
To die he's rollin' in the cadillac it's midnight sunroof is down
Three shots rung out the hero's dead,
The new king is crowned.

Black coat, white shoes, black hat, cadillac
Yeah, the boy's a time bomb
Black coat, white shoes, black hat, cadillac
Yeah, the boy's a time bomb
Black coat, white shoes, black hat, cadillac
Yeah, the boy's a time bomb
Black coat, white shoes, black hat, cadillac
Yeah, the boy's a time bomb
Ohh, time bomb

The District Sleeps Alone Tonight

Smeared black ink.
Your palms are sweaty,
And I'm barely listening
To last demands.
I'm staring at the asphalt wondering
"What's buried underneath where I am?"
(Where I am)

I'll wear my badge:
A vinyl sticker with big block letters
Adhered to my chest.
It tells your new friends
"I am a visitor here... I am not permanent."
And the only thing keeping me dry is...
(Where I am)

You seem so out of context,
In this gaudy apartment complex.
A stranger with your door key,
Explaining that I'm just visiting.
And I am finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving.
(I was the one worth leaving)

D.C. sleeps alone tonight.

(Where I am)
You seem so out of context
In this gaudy apartment complex.
(Where I am)
A stranger with your door key
Explaining that I'm just visiting.
(Where I am)
And I am finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving.
(I was the one worth leaving)

(Where I am)
The District sleeps alone tonight
After the bars turn out their lights.
(Where I am)
And send the autos swerving
Into the loneliest evening.
(Where I am)
And I am finally seeing
why I was the one worth leaving.
why I was the one worth leaving.
why I was the one worth leaving.
why I was the one worth leaving.

Radio

Never fell in love
until i fell in love with you
Never know what a good time was until i had a good time with you
If you wanna get the feeling and you wanna get it right
Then the music gotta be loud
For when the music hit i feel no pain at all

Warm summer night i was drinking with my dad
He tried to give me the love that i never had
But he gave more love to his bottle of wine
So i had to go out and find love of another kind

Here it is
Here i am
Turn it up
F-ckin' loud

Radio, Radio, Radio, Radio, Radio, Radio

When i got the music
i got a place to go

Radio, Radio, Radio, Radio, Radio, Radio

When i got the music
i got a place to go

Radio Clash
Magnificent 7
I was a choir boy
you showed me no heaven
Two tools surely lost
No remorse ignoring the cost

Here it is
Here i am
Turn it up
F-ckin' loud

Radio, Radio, Radio, Radio, Radio, Radio

When i got the music
I got a place to go

Radio, Radio, Radio, Radio, Radio, Radio

When i got the music
I got a place to go

Don'tcha know?

Here it is
Here i am
Turn it up
F-ckin' loud


Radio, Radio, Radio, Radio, Radio, Radio

When i got the music
I got a place to go

Radio, Radio, Radio, Radio, Radio, Radio

When i got the music

When i got the music
I got a place to go ...

Summerland

Let's just drive your car
We could drive all day
Let's just get the hell away from here
For I am sick again-
Just plain sick to death
Of the sound of my own voice
We could leave behind
Another wasted year
Just get some cheap red wine
And just go flying

We could do the things,
All the things you wanted to
No one cares about us anyway

I think I lost my smile
I think you lost yours too
We have lost the power to
Make each other laugh
Let's just leave this place
And go to summerland
Just a name on the map
Sounds like heaven to me

We could find a town-
Be just how we want to be
No one here really cares
About us anyway
We could find a place-
Make it what we want it to be
No one really gives a f-ck
About us anyway
We could live-
Live just like we want to live
No one here really cares
About us anyway
We could be-
Everything we want to be
We could get lost in the fall
Glimmer sparkle and fade
The sparkle and fade
Fall glimmer sparkle and fade

Forget about our jobs at
The record store
Forget about all the losers
That we know
Forget about all the memories
That keep you down
Forget about them
We could lose them in the
Sparkle and fade
We could leave them behind
In the sparkle and fade
Yeah sparkle and fade
Fall glimmer sparkle and fade
Fall glimmer sparkle and fade
Fall glimmer sparkle and fade

Just Like Heaven

"Show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream" she said
"The one that makes me laugh" she said
And threw her arms around my neck
"Show me how you do it
And I promise you I promise that
I'll run away with you
I'll run away with you"

Spinning on that dizzy edge
I kissed her face and kissed her head
And dreamed of all the different ways I had
To make her glow
"Why are you so far away?" she said
"Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
That I'm in love with you"

You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You're just like a dream

Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone alone
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved
And drowned her deep inside of me

You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Just like heaven

alice in chains NUTSHELL (i believe these lyrics depict laynes pain and a good reason why he died)

We chase misprinted lies
We face the path of time
And yet I fight
And yet I fight
This battle all alone
No one to cry to
No place to call home

Oooh...Oooh...
Oooh...Oooh...

My gift of self is raped
My privacy is raked
And yet I find
And yet I find
Repeating in my head
If I can't be my own
I'd feel better dead

Oooh...Oooh...
Oooh...Oooh...

Shoot 'Em Down

Come on boys!
Ow!

She looks so fine
Like champagne or wine
No one ever gets her
Oh ain't she cool
Plays us for fools
If we wanna let her
Across the room she's sees some buffoon
Blown away by her style
She goes out of her way so that she can play
And make him beg for a little while

Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot 'em down to the ground

Like caviar
Or a fine foreign car
He's a motivator
Dressed to the T's
They're down on their knees
He's a master baiter
He'll make 'em crawl for the hell of it all
He likes to see 'em cry
And then just for fun he'll say she's the one
And then he'll make her die
He's gonna

Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot 'em down to the ground

They don't care about feelings
They were meant to be stepped on
And while one is healing
They go and step on another one

Now, these people prey
On us everyday
Some are bad, some badder
They think we're fools
So they make their own rules
It only gets us madder
Well they think they're hot
Well i say they're not
They shoot us down for fun
If they wanna play
Let's make 'em pay and
Shoot them down with a fvckin' gun

Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot 'em down to the ground

Come on now!
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot 'em down to the ground

Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot them down
Come on honey
Shoot them down
Come on shoot 'em down

Disappointed

Promises, promises
Old, tired, worn out, second hand sentences
One thing, with you is certain
You're a really sad person
So sad

Disappointed a few people
When friendship reared its ugly head
Disappointed a few people
Well, isn't that what friends are for? (What friends are for)
What friends are for (What friends are for)
What are friends for? (What friends are for)

You, you're just a really sad person
Who won't, you won't listen to anyone
No not you
With those half moon eyelids
Just babbling on, your useless defenses
So sad

Disappointed a few people
When friendship reared its ugly head
Disappointed a few people
Well isn't that what friends are for (What friends are for)
What friends are for (What friends are for)
What are friends for?

This erratic haphazard, fluttering
This to-ing and fro-ing
Like a confused moth
The collision, illusion
And it's all ad infinitum
You're a really sad person
You're really so sad

Disappointed a few people
When friendship reared its ugly head
Disappointed a few people
Well isn't that what friends are for (What friends are for)
What friends are for (What friends are for)
What are friends for?

So sad

Fools and horses
Running their courses
And brow beaten down
Like dust on the ground
You cheat easily
Like sweet charity

And all of the bastards
The world all despises
Springing surprises
In newer disguises
You cheat easily
Like all charity

Fools and horses (What friends are for)
Running their courses (What friends are for)
And brow beaten down (What friends are for)
Like dust on the ground (What friends are for)
You cheat easily (What friends are for)
Like sweet charity (What friends are for)

And all of the bastards (What friends are for)
The world all despises (What friends are for)

Boys Don't Cry

I would say I'm sorry
If I thought that it would change your mind
But I know that this time
I've said too much
Been too unkind

I try to laugh about it
Cover it all up with lies
I try and laugh about it
Hiding the tears in my eyes
'cause boys don't cry

Boys don't cry
Boys don't cry

I would break down at your feet
And beg forgiveness
Plead with you
But I know that
It's too late
And now there's nothing I can do

So I try to laugh about it
Cover it all up with lies
I try to laugh about it
Hiding the tears in my eyes
'cause boys don't cry

Boys don't cry

I would tell you
That I loved you
If I thought that you would stay
But I know that it's no use
That you've already
Gone away

Misjudged your limits
Pushed you too far
Took you for granted
I thought that you needed me more

Now I would do most anything
To get you back by my side
But I just keep on laughing
Hiding the tears in my eyes
'cause boys don't cry
Boys don't cry

Boys don't cry

Highway To Hell

Living easy
Living free
Season ticket on a one way ride
Asking nothing
Leave me be
Taking everything in my stride
Don't need reason
Don't need rhyme
Ain't nothin' I would rather do
Going down
Party time
My friends are gonna be there too, eh

I'm on a highway to hell
On the highway to hell
Highway to hell
I'm on the highway to hell

No stop signs
Speed limit
Nobody's gonna slow me down
Like a wheel
Gonna spin it
Nobody's gonna mess me 'round
Hey Satan
Payin' my dues
Playin' in a rockin' band
Hey momma
Look at me
I'm on my way to the Promised Land, whoa!

I'm on the highway to hell
Highway to hell
I'm on the highway to hell
Highway to hell

Mmm, don't stop me
No, oh, ouw

Highway to hell

Highway to hell
I'm on the highway to hell
Highway to hell

And I'm goin' down,all the waa-ay-aay, whoa!
M-on the highway to hell

Big Balls

Well I'm ever upper-class high society
God's gift to ballroom notoriety
And I always fill my ballroom
The event is never small
The social pages say I've got
The biggest balls of all

I've got big balls
I've got big balls
They're such big balls
And they're dirty big balls
And he's got big balls
And she's got big balls
But we've got the biggest balls of them all!

And my balls are always bouncing
And my ballroom always full
And everybody cums and cums again
If your name is on the guest list
No one can take you higher
Everybody says I've got
Great balls of fire

I've got big balls
Oh, I've got big balls
And they're such big balls
Dirty big balls
And he's got big balls
And she's got big balls
But we've got the biggest balls of them all!

Some balls are held for charity
And some for fancy dress
But when they're held for pleasure
They're the balls that I like best
My balls are always bouncing
To the left and to the right
It's my belief that my big balls
Should be held every night

Oh, we've got big balls
We've got big balls
We've got big balls
Dirty big balls
He's got big balls
She's got big balls
But we've got the biggest balls of them all!

Oh, we've got big balls
We've got big balls
We've got big balls/And I'm just itching to tell you about them
Dirty big balls/Oh we had such wonderful fun
He's got big balls/Seafood cocktail
She's got big balls/Crabs
But we've got the biggest balls of them all/Crayfish

Oh, bullock sucker
Bullock sucker
Bullock sucker
Bullock sucker
Bullock sucker
Bullock sucker
Bullock sucker
Bullock sucker
Bullock sucker
Bullock sucker
Bullock sucker
Eh-yeah

UNDEROATH- IN REGARDS TO MYSELF

Wake up! Wake up! My God!
This is not a test!
And it's not too late to come clean
Get it off your chest
So steady your hand before your face and concentrate
There's got to be some stable ground
Left to walk on

So tear another page from the book
Are you asleep or just alone?
Clear this room from your lungs

Pull yourself together
Pull yourself together, man
Pull yourself together
Pull yourself together

On your back,
You're sleeping in a bed of shame
Let the light breath some new life into this room
It's what keeps you coming back
Made up of insatiable taste
Bury your head in your hands
And sing into yourself

Oh!

Just what are you so afraid of?
What are you so afraid of?
You're staring truth in the face
So come on down
What are you so afraid of?

You're busy living now, aren't you?
You're busy making vows
You're coming unglued

Time is shorter than you know
I know the light is blinding to the naked eye
So why don't you take steps away from being alone?
I swear, it's not too late for you

It's all worth reaching for
It's all worth reaching for
It's all worth reaching for
The hand to pull you out
It's all worth reaching for
The hand to pull you out

Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!
And step outside your box
Wake up!

THE USED- IM A FAKE

Small, simple, safe price
Rise the wake and carry me with all of my regrets
This is not a small cut that scabs, and dries, and flakes, and heals
And I am not afraid to die
I'm not afraid to bleed, and ****, and fight.
I want the pain of payment
What's left, but a section of pigmy size cuts
Much like a slew of a thousand unwanted ****s
Would you be my little cut?
Would you be my thousand ****s?
And make mark leaving space for the guilt to be liquid
To fill, and spill over, and under my thoughts
My sad, sorry, selfish cry out to the cutter
I'm cutting trying to picture your black broken heart
Love is not like anything
Especially a ****ing knife

Look at me, you can tell
By the way I move and do my hair
Do you think that it's me or it's not me?
I don't even care
I'm alive
I don't smell
I'm the cleanest I have ever been.
I feel big, I feel tall, I feel dry (dry)

[Chorus:]
Just look at me, look at me now
I'm a fake [x4]
Just look at me, look at me now
I'm a fake [x4]

Do I drink? Do I date?
I've got perfect placement all my ink
Satisfied, in your eyes
I'm the biggest fan I've got right now
I made sure, that I look how I wanted to look
The people around me, the people surround me
I feel big, I feel tall, I feel dry (dry)

[Chorus]

My stomach hurts now, and all tied off in lace
I pray, I beg for anything, to hit me in the face
and this sicknes isn't me, I pray to fall from grace
The last thing I see is feeling
And I'm telling you I'm a fake [x4]
And I'm telling you I'm...

Just Fine
--Mary J. Blige

But it's something about this joint right here

Fun Things To F-ck (If You're A Winner)

Fun things to f-ck
Fun things to f-ck (F-ck!)
Fun things to f-ck
Fun things to f-ck

F-ck the front door, f-ck the back
F-ck the good girls with the knack
F-ck the government until they f-ck you back
F-ck a Muslim, f-ck a Jew
F-ck fans of blink 182
That's illegal if you were born in '83
Yeah, yeah, yeah

F-ck a bean cheese burrito
F-ck a bowl of cookie dough
F-ck the space between the big and neighbor toe
F-ck a cop, f-ck a marine
F-ck a jar of Vaseline
F-ck a calzone with pepperoni

F-ck a midget, f-ck a dwarf
F-ck Chris Cringle with an elf
But before you f-ck it all... go f-ck yourself!

Wonderful

Hey, ain't life wonderful? wonderful, wonderful, wonderful... isn't it wonderful
Now?

I close my eyes when I get too sad
I think thoughts that I know are bad
Close my eyes and I count to ten
Hope its over when I open them

I want the things that I had before
Like a star wars poster on my bedroom door
I wish I could count to ten
Make everything be wonderful again

Hope my mom and I hope my dad
Will figure out why they get so mad
Hear them scream, I hear them fight
They say bad words that make me wanna cry

Close my eyes when I go to bed
And I dream of angels who make me smile
I feel better when I hear them say
Everything will be wonderful someday

Promises mean everything when you're little
And the worlds so big
I just don't understand how
You can smile with all those tears in your eyes
Tell me everything is wonderful now

Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now

I go to school and I run and play
I tell the kids that its all okay
I laugh aloud so my friends won't know
When the bell rings I just don't wanna go home

Go to my room and I close my eyes
I make believe that I have a new life
I don't believe you when you say
Everything will be wonderful someday

Promises mean everything when you're little
And the world is so big
I just don't understand how
You can smile with all those tears in your eyes
When you tell me everything is wonderful now

No!
No, I don't wanna hear you tell me everything is wonderful now
No!
No, I don't wanna hear you tell me everything is wonderful now

I don't wanna hear you say
That I will understand someday
No, no, no, no
I don't wanna hear you say
You both have grown in a different way
No, no, no, no
I don't wanna meet your friends
And I don't wanna start over again
I just want my life to be the same
Just like it used to be
Some days I hate everything
I hate everything
Everyone and everything

Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now
Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now
Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now
I don't wanna hear you tell me everything is wonderful now
Oh yeah everything is wonderful now
Oh yeah everything is wonderful now ...

Jesus Of Suburbia

-Part I: Jesus Of Suburbia-

I'm the son of rage and love
The Jesus of Suburbia
The bible of none of the above
On a steady diet of
Soda Pop and Ritalin
No one ever died for my
Sins in hell
As far as I can tell
At least the ones that I got away with

And there's nothing wrong with me
This is how I'm supposed to be
In a land of make believe
That don't believe in me

Get my television fix
Sitting on my crucifix
The living room or my private womb
While the Moms and Brads are away
To fall in love and fall in debt
To alcohol and cigarettes
And Mary Jane
To keep me insane
Doing someone else's cocaine

And there's nothing wrong with me
This is how I'm supposed to be
In a land of make believe
That don't believe in me

-Part II: City Of The Damned-

At the center of the earth
In the parking lot
Of the 7-11 where I was taught
The motto was just a lie

It says home is where your heart is
But what a shame
Cause everyone's heart
Doesn't beat the same
It's beating out of time

City of the dead
At the end of another lost highway
Signs misleading to nowhere

City of the damned
Lost children with dirty faces today
No one really seems to care

I read the graffiti
In the bathroom stall
Like the holy scriptures of a shopping mall
And so it seemed to confess

It didn't say much
But it only confirmed that
The center of the earth
Is the end of the world
And I could really care less

City of the dead
At the end of another lost highway
Signs misleading to nowhere

City of the damned
Lost children with dirty faces today
No one really seems to care
Hey!

-Part III: I Don't Care-

I don't care if you don't
I don't care if you don't
I don't care if you don't care

I don't care if you don't
I don't care if you don't
I don't care if you don't care

I don't care if you don't
I don't care if you don't
I don't care if you don't care

I don't care if you don't
I don't care if you don't
I don't care if you don't care

I don't careeeeeee.....

Everyone is so full of $hit
Born and raised by hypocrites
Hearts recycled but never saved
From the cradle to the grave
We are the kids of war and peace
From Anaheim to the Middle East
We are the stories and disciples of
The Jesus of suburbia

Land of make believe
And it don't believe in me
Land of make believe
And It don't believe
And I don't care!
And I don't care!
And I don't care!
And I don't care!
And I don't care!

-Part IV: Dearly Beloved-

Dearly beloved are you listening?
I can't remember a word that you were saying
Are we demented or am I disturbed?
The space that's in between insane and insecure

Oh therapy, can you please fill the void?
Am I retarded or am I just overjoyed
Nobody's perfect and I stand accused
For lack of a better word, and that's my best excuse

-Part V: Tales Of Another Broken Home-

To live, and not to breathe
Is to die, in tragedy
To run, to run away
To find, what you believe

And I leave behind
This hurricane of f-cking lies
I lost my faith to this
This town that don't exist
So I run, I run away
To the lights of masochists

And I, leave behind
This hurricane of f-cking lies
And I, walked this line
A million and one f-cking times
But not this time

I don't feel any shame
I won't apologize
When there ain't nowhere you can go
Running away from pain
When you've been victimized
Tales from another broken home

You're leaving...
You're leaving...
You're leaving...
Ah, you're leaving home...
