In This Life by Chantal Kreviazuk

Let me show you what I'm made of
Good intentions are not enough
To get me though today and this life.
You're in the basement watching the tv,
I'm on the second floor watching the ceiling.
We sleep underneath the same big sky at night.
I dream the same dream we can fly
You can run from me
You can hide form me
But I am right beside you
In this life.
Let me tell you who you really are
You're my comfort
You're not a superstar
I can reach up and bring you back down to the ground
And give you everything you dream about
You can run from me
You can hide from me
But I am right beside you
In this life.
I'll give you all the things that I never get
Give you all I have and have no regret
Take you to the places that I�ve never been
Forgive you all the things that you cant forget
Take away the pain with my healing hands
Wash away your sins and set your spirit free
You can run from me
You can hide from me
But I am right beside you
In this life.
Let me show you what I'm made of

One More Time With Feeling by Regina Spektor

Your stitches are all out
But your scars are healing wrong
The helium balloon inside your room has come undone
And it's pushing up at the ceiling
And the flickering lights it cannot get beyond

Everyone takes turns
Now it's yours to play the part
And they're sitting all around you
Holding copies of your chart
And the misery inside their eyes is
Synchronized and reflecting into yours

Hold on!
One more time with feeling
Try it again, breathing's just a rhythm
Say it in your mind until you know that the words are right
This is why we fight

You thought by now you'd be
So much better than you are
You thought by now they'd see
That you have come so far

And the pride inside their eyes
Would synchronize into a love you've never known
So much more than you've been show

Hold on!
One more time with feeling
Try it again, breathing's just a rhythm
Say it in your mind until you know that the
Words are right

This is why we fight
This is why we fight

Come Round Soon by Sara Bareilles

I could use another cigarette
But don't worry daddy, I'm not addicted yet
One too many drinks tonight and I miss you
Like you were mine

All your stormy words have barely broken
And you sound like thunder though
You've barely spoken
Oh, it looks like rain tonight and thank God
'Cause a clear sky just wouldn't feel right.

[CHORUS]
He's taken and leaving
But I keep believing
That he's gonna come round soon
(He'll come round soon I know)
You may be my final match
'Cause I chase everything when you play
Throw and I play catch
It never took much to keep me satisfied
But all the ******** you feed me you miss me
You need me
This hungry heart will not subside

[CHORUS]
He's taken and leaving
But I keep believing
That he's gonna come round soon
Until I see him again
I'm staying believing
That it won't be deceiving
When he's gonna come round

Well I may seem naive if I cry as you leave
Like I'm just one more tortured heart
These cracks that I show as I'm watching
You go aren't tearing me apart
I may seem naive if I cry as you leave
Like I'm just one more tortured heart
These cracks that I show as I'm watching
You go aren't tearing me apart

The angels said I'd smile today
Well who needs angels anyway?

[CHORUS]

Lzzy Hale

(chorus)
I'm in love with somebody
Found someone who completes me
I'm in love with somebody
Ooh yeeaahhh
And it's not you

Feed my finger what you're gonna do
See these lips they're all done talking to you
I don't mean to bruise your ego
But I've had you nailed down for so long
I don't see your name on my tattoo

Hope you understand
It's been a long time coming
It's for the best
No offense

(chorus)
I'm in love with somebody
Found someone who completes me
I'm in love with somebody
Ooh yeeaahhh
And it's not you

I know who you think you are
Sorry I've turned you on
but I'm kissing you off
Lines of whiskey and cigarettes
but not enough to make me forget
I've got someone who has raised the bar
I've heard it all before
Stop spinnin' your wheels
Show you the door
No hard feelings

(chorus)
I'm in love with somebody
Found someone who completes me
I'm in love with somebody
Ooh yeeaahhh
And it's not you

You've probably never been shot down before
(You've probably never been shot down before)
I'll try and make it easier

(chorus)
I'm in love with somebody
Found someone who completes me
I'm in love with somebody
Ooh yeeaahhh
And it's not you

It's not you
It's not you, yeah

City Of Angels- The Distillers

Its going down tonight in this town
Cause they stare and growl
They all stare and growl
I take a scar every time I cry
Cause it aint my style no it aint my style
Going down to the gravel head to the barrel
Take this life and end this struggle
Los Angeles come scam me please
Emptiness never sleeps at Cliftons 6 am
With your bag lady friend and your mind descending
Stripped of the right to be a human in control
Its warmer in hell so down we go

They say this is the city
The city of angels
All I see is dead wings (rpt. 2x)

Its a ghost town rabid underworld
Dionysian night vitriolic twilight
A mirage comes up it never ends
Once you get burnt youre never the same
Left behind erased from time
Ain't no decency in being boxed up alive
Look around ain't no R.I.P. signs here
We don't rest in peace
We just disappear

So here we are Los Angeles
No angels singing in your valley of unease
I watch the sun roll down the pacific
Over hookered sunset strip

They say this is the city
The city of angels
All I see is dead wings (rpt. 3x)

There's a black moon tonight
Aint shining down on the western neon lights (rpt. 2x)

They say this is the city
The city of angels
All I see is dead wings (rpt 4x)

I wanna be your dog.........Joan Jett

The last enemy
By
Arch Enemy


[Lyrics/Vocals: Angela Gossow, Music: Michael Amott / Christopher Amott]

Fearless on my final quest
Find truth beyond the flesh
Fleeting past my dreams of unfulfilled desire
My strength unwavering
My journey just beginning
A desperate race through the corridors of hell

Chaos emerges – Surrender I will not

The Last Enemy Is Falling
Here I am – To Conquer Death Itself
The Last Enemy Is Falling
Here I stand – To Conquer Death Itself

Funeral silence beneath the burning cross
My immortal soul sleeps with the wolves tonight
Shin and bones that rot, my blood runs dry
See me die to rise with the gods again

[Harmony – Michael & Christopher]
[Lead – Christopher]

Defy… Decay
Arise again

[Harmony – Michael & Christopher]

[Lead – Michael]

Chaos emerges
Surrender I will not

[Melody – Michael]
[Acoustic Outro – Christopher]
