Rippin' my heart was so easy, so easy
Launch your assault now, take it easy
Raise your weapon, raise your weapon
One word and it's over
Rippin' through like a missile
Rippin' through my heart
Rob me of this love
Raise your weapon, raise your weapon and it's over
Love your ego, you won't feel a thing
Always number one
The pen with a bent wrist crooked king
Sign away our peace for your war, one word and it's over
Dropping your bombs now
On all we've built
How does it feel now to watch it burn, burn, burn?
Raise your weapons, raise your weapons and it's over
Rippin' through like a missile
Rippin' through my heart, rob me of this love
Raise your weapon, raise your weapon and it's over
How does it feel now to watch it burn, burn, burn?
Rippin' my heart was so easy, so easy
Launch your assault now, take it easy
Raise your weapon, raise your weapon
One word and it's over
Rippin' through like a missile
Rippin' through my heart
Rob me of this love
Raise your weapon, raise your weapon and it's over
Love your ego, you won't feel a thing
Always number one
The pen with a bent wrist crooked king
Sign away our peace for your war, one word and it's over
Dropping your bombs now
On all we've built
How does it feel now to watch it burn, burn, burn?
Raise your weapons, raise your weapons and it's over

this year & the last couple months especially have prepared me for so much. its carved a spot of loneliness in my heart that feels more familiar now than it does painful. the last few years have been leading to this, something big, something drastic. I just wish I knew what. I'm ready for a new me.
30 Seconds To Mars ~ Capricorn (A Brand New Name)
So I run, hide and tear myself up
Start again with a brand new name
And eyes that see into infinity
I will disappear
I told you once and I'll say it again
I want my message read clear
I'll show you the way, the way I'm going
So I run, and hide and tear myself up
Start again with a brand new name
And eyes that see into infinity
I was almost there
Just a moment away from becoming unclear
Ever get the feeling you're gone
I'll show you the way, the way I'm going
So I run, and hide and tear myself up
I'll start again with a brand new name
And eyes that see into infinity
So I run, start again
With a brand new name
With a brand new name
So I run and hide and tear myself up (so I run)
I'll start again with a brand new name (start again)
And eyes that see into infinity (with a brand new name)
I will disappear

edwin mccain ~ i'll be
The strands in your eyes
That color them wonderful
Stop me and steal my breath
Emeralds from mountains
Thrust towards the sky
Never revealing their depth
Tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of love
I'll be captivated,
I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows
Of heartache that hang from above
I'll be your cryin' shoulder
I'll be love suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your life
Rain falls angry on the tin roof
As we lie awake in my bed
You're my survival
You're my living proof
My love is alive and not dead
Tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of love
I'll be captivated
I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows
Of heartache that hang from above
I'll be your cryin' shoulder
I'll be love suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your life
I've dropped out
I've burned up
I've fought my way back from the dead
Tuned in
Turned on
Remembered the things you said
I'll be your cryin' shoulder
I'll be love suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your life
I'll be your cryin' shoulder
I'll be love suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your life
That color them wonderful
Stop me and steal my breath
Emeralds from mountains
Thrust towards the sky
Never revealing their depth
Tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of love
I'll be captivated,
I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows
Of heartache that hang from above
I'll be your cryin' shoulder
I'll be love suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your life
Rain falls angry on the tin roof
As we lie awake in my bed
You're my survival
You're my living proof
My love is alive and not dead
Tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of love
I'll be captivated
I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows
Of heartache that hang from above
I'll be your cryin' shoulder
I'll be love suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your life
I've dropped out
I've burned up
I've fought my way back from the dead
Tuned in
Turned on
Remembered the things you said
I'll be your cryin' shoulder
I'll be love suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your life
I'll be your cryin' shoulder
I'll be love suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your life

Davola ~ One Second Of Clarity
it feels like I've died 100,000 different times
I rise again but these scars of mine begin to show
(just leave the tag upon my toe..)
I rise again but these scars of mine begin to show
(just leave the tag upon my toe..)
The Ocean ~ Rhyacian
I'm swooping with the vast span of my wings
Into the death-throes of my memory: the eternal scourge of the human mind
I'm wandering in times which are not mine
Into the death-throes of my memory: the eternal scourge of the human mind
I'm wandering in times which are not mine

Fuel - Hemorrhage
Memories are just where you laid them
Drag the waters ’till the depths give up their dead
What did you expect to find?
Was there something you left behind?
Don’t you remember anything I said when I said
Don’t fall away, and leave me to myself
Don’t fall away and leave love bleeding
In my hands, in my hands again
Leave love bleeding
In my hands, in my hands
Love lies bleeding
Oh hold me now I feel contagious
Am I the only place that you’ve left to go
She cries her life is like
Some movie black and white
Dead actors faking lines
Over and over and over again she cries
Don’t fall away, and leave me to myself
Dont fall away, and leave love bleeding
In my hands, in my hands again
Leave love bleeding
In my hands, in my hands
Love lies bleeding
And I wanted
You turned away
You don’t remember, but I do
You never even tried
Don’t fall away and leave me to myself
Don’t fall away and leave love bleeding
In my hands, in my hands again
Leave love bleeding
In my hands, in my hands
Love lies bleeding
Drag the waters ’till the depths give up their dead
What did you expect to find?
Was there something you left behind?
Don’t you remember anything I said when I said
Don’t fall away, and leave me to myself
Don’t fall away and leave love bleeding
In my hands, in my hands again
Leave love bleeding
In my hands, in my hands
Love lies bleeding
Oh hold me now I feel contagious
Am I the only place that you’ve left to go
She cries her life is like
Some movie black and white
Dead actors faking lines
Over and over and over again she cries
Don’t fall away, and leave me to myself
Dont fall away, and leave love bleeding
In my hands, in my hands again
Leave love bleeding
In my hands, in my hands
Love lies bleeding
And I wanted
You turned away
You don’t remember, but I do
You never even tried
Don’t fall away and leave me to myself
Don’t fall away and leave love bleeding
In my hands, in my hands again
Leave love bleeding
In my hands, in my hands
Love lies bleeding
Devildriver - Horn Of Betrayal
What the fuck do you want from me?
It's so damn plain to see that you're not grateful
Silence takes courage
No scars, no truth but the wounds tell the story
Of what will be done for honor and glory
Silence is deafening
Does the end justify the means?
In all honesty, how do you sleep?
Silence takes courage
The horn of betrayal
Sounds loudly for the fallen
While mine eyes are world away
Watch cowards as they bend the knee
Scratch a liar
Find a thief
inside is where the demon dwells
So I bite my tongue and when it comes to you
Silence takes courage
Your heart needs amputation
Crying the get-lost blues
Fuck you!
Silence is deafening
The horn of betrayal
Sounds loudly for the fallen
While mine eyes are world away
Watch cowards as they bend the knee
Scratch a liar
Find a thief
Through the lies and the blasphemy
You are fucking dead to me
You are dead to me
This de los muerte, this day of the dead It turns for me celebration instead
Skull and Bones, walking away from the throne
To seek another kingdom
(another kingdom)
(another kingdom)
(another kingdom)
Your selfless heart
Your selfless
Waves of sorrow washed over me
Your selfless
Like a sea of new memories

goo goo dolls ~ iris
And I'd give up forever to touch you
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything seems like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know your alive
I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything seems like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know your alive
I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

otep ~ invisible
Dress like we do,
Speak like we do,
Think like we do.
Obey..
Beneath the cold sun
Watching you walk away
Where my terror runs
In rivers so decayed
I am invisible...
I'm in this room for days...
Teeth on every wall...
That never go away.
I'm made of blades and flame...
I'm sick and dangerous...
You're my favorite prey
'Cause I hurt the ones I love.
You're so lovely when you cry.
You're so perfect when you lie.
You can be my crucifix,
Hold me up to watch me die.
Can't you see?
I'm invisible...
Beneath the Pagan moon
One more prey dies today.
On sheets of flesh and doom
Shivering in endless shade like criminals...
The stain still remains
And I promise you, it never goes away.
You're so lovely when you cry.
You're so perfect when you lie.
You can be my crucifix,
Hold me up to watch me die.
Behold,
Feast your eyes as the peripherals explode.
Can you see me now? [2x]
The ugly will resign
When the young blood eats the light.
And one day,
This pain could save your life.
You're so lovely when you cry.
You're so perfect when you lie.
You can be my crucifix,
Hold me up to watch me die.
Living in the shelter,
Lying here alive...
We're painting submission
Across the shadowed sky...
Fire on the sides,
Burned and bright, has arrived
Lost in flight, on golden molted wings.
Now do you see? [2x]
Now do you...
Now do you see?
Speak like we do,
Think like we do.
Obey..
Beneath the cold sun
Watching you walk away
Where my terror runs
In rivers so decayed
I am invisible...
I'm in this room for days...
Teeth on every wall...
That never go away.
I'm made of blades and flame...
I'm sick and dangerous...
You're my favorite prey
'Cause I hurt the ones I love.
You're so lovely when you cry.
You're so perfect when you lie.
You can be my crucifix,
Hold me up to watch me die.
Can't you see?
I'm invisible...
Beneath the Pagan moon
One more prey dies today.
On sheets of flesh and doom
Shivering in endless shade like criminals...
The stain still remains
And I promise you, it never goes away.
You're so lovely when you cry.
You're so perfect when you lie.
You can be my crucifix,
Hold me up to watch me die.
Behold,
Feast your eyes as the peripherals explode.
Can you see me now? [2x]
The ugly will resign
When the young blood eats the light.
And one day,
This pain could save your life.
You're so lovely when you cry.
You're so perfect when you lie.
You can be my crucifix,
Hold me up to watch me die.
Living in the shelter,
Lying here alive...
We're painting submission
Across the shadowed sky...
Fire on the sides,
Burned and bright, has arrived
Lost in flight, on golden molted wings.
Now do you see? [2x]
Now do you...
Now do you see?

Mumford & Sons: After The Storm
And there will come a time, you'll see, with no more tears
And love will not break your heart but dismiss your fears
Get over your hill and see what you find there
With grace in your heart and flowers in your hair
And love will not break your heart but dismiss your fears
Get over your hill and see what you find there
With grace in your heart and flowers in your hair

30 Seconds to Mars: Capricorn
So I run, hide and tear myself up
Start again with a brand new name
And eyes that see into infinity
I will disappear
I told you once and I'll say it again
I want my message read clear
I'll show you the way, the way I'm goin'
So I run, hide and tear myself up
Start again with a brand new name
And eyes that see into infinity
I was almost there
Just a moment away from becoming unclear
Ever get the feeling you're gone
I'll show you the way, the way I'm goin'
So I run, hide and tear myself up
I'll start again with a brand new name
And eyes that see into infinity, into infinity
So I run
Start again
With a brand new name
With a brand new name
(So I run)
So I run and hide and tear myself up
(Start again)
Start again with a brand new name
(With a brand new name)
And eyes that see into infinity, into infinity
(With a brand new name)
I will disappear
Start again with a brand new name
And eyes that see into infinity
I will disappear
I told you once and I'll say it again
I want my message read clear
I'll show you the way, the way I'm goin'
So I run, hide and tear myself up
Start again with a brand new name

So I run and hide and tear myself up
(Start again)
Start again with a brand new name
(With a brand new name)
And eyes that see into infinity, into infinity

Joe Bonamassa - Dust Bowl
[Verse 1:]
I'm gonna make my own way
I'm gonna head downtown
Walk around, settle down,
Find me a proper drink
Don't need a helmet
To get me through life
I walk across the water
Blame it on foolish pride
[Chorus:]
Lifting me up
Tearing me down
All you give me is indecision
the classic run-around
Bringing me higher
Keeping me whole
Now I feel like I'm living
Living in a Dust Bowl
[Verse 2:]
Diamonds and pearls
You're that kind of girl
You size me up, to break me down
While you're sipping on your crown royal
I'll give you shelter
Babe, it's your call
It's hard to find truth within
When you're living in your own zone
[Chorus:]
Lifting me up
Tearing me down
All you give me is indecision
the classic run-around
Bringing me higher
Keeping me whole
Now I feel like I'm living
Living in a Dust Bowl
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3:]
Pride and deception
The same kind of pain
And all that's left for me to lose
Is meant for you to gain
Playing it close
Stealing your time
But who cares anyway?
I've gone the extra mile
[Chorus:]
Lifting me up
Tearing me down
All you give me is indecision
the classic run-around
Bringing me higher
Keeping me whole
Now I feel like I'm living
Living in a Dust Bowl
I'm gonna make my own way
I'm gonna head downtown
Walk around, settle down,
Find me a proper drink
Don't need a helmet
To get me through life
I walk across the water
Blame it on foolish pride
[Chorus:]
Lifting me up
Tearing me down
All you give me is indecision
the classic run-around
Bringing me higher
Keeping me whole
Now I feel like I'm living
Living in a Dust Bowl
[Verse 2:]
Diamonds and pearls
You're that kind of girl
You size me up, to break me down
While you're sipping on your crown royal
I'll give you shelter
Babe, it's your call
It's hard to find truth within
When you're living in your own zone
[Chorus:]
Lifting me up
Tearing me down
All you give me is indecision

Bringing me higher
Keeping me whole
Now I feel like I'm living

And all that's left for me to lose

But who cares anyway?
I've gone the extra mile
[Chorus:]
Lifting me up
Tearing me down
All you give me is indecision

Bringing me higher
Keeping me whole
Now I feel like I'm living
Living in a Dust Bowl

RISE AGAINST - SAVIOR
It kills me not to know this but I've all but just forgotten
What the color of her eyes were and her scars or how she got them
As the telling signs of age rain down a single tear is dropping
Through the valleys of an aging face that this world has forgotten
There is no reconciliation that will put me in my place
And there is no time like the present to drink these draining seconds
But seldom do these words ring true when I'm constantly failing you
Like walls that we just can't break through until we disappear
So tell me now
If this ain't love then how do we get out?
Because I don't know
That's when she said I don't hate you boy
I just want to save you while there's still something left to save
That's when I told her I love you girl
But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have
But the day pressed on like crushing weights
For no man does it ever wait
Like memories of dying days
That deafen us like hurricanes
Bathed in flames we held the brand
Uncurled the fingers in your hand
Pressed into the flesh like sand
Now do you understand?
So tell me now
If this ain't love then how do we get out?
Because I don't know
That's when she said I don't hate you boy
I just want to save you while there's still something left to save
That's when I told her I love you girl
But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have
1000 miles away
There's nothing left to say
But so much left that I don't know
We never had a choice
This world is too much noise
It takes me under
It takes me under once again
I don't hate you
I don't hate you, no
So tell me now
If this ain't love then how do we get out?
Because I don't know
That's when she said I don't hate you boy
I just want to save you while there's still something left to save
That's when I told her I love you girl
But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have
I don't hate you
I don't hate you, no
What the color of her eyes were and her scars or how she got them
As the telling signs of age rain down a single tear is dropping
Through the valleys of an aging face that this world has forgotten
There is no reconciliation that will put me in my place
And there is no time like the present to drink these draining seconds
But seldom do these words ring true when I'm constantly failing you
Like walls that we just can't break through until we disappear
So tell me now
If this ain't love then how do we get out?
Because I don't know
That's when she said I don't hate you boy
I just want to save you while there's still something left to save
That's when I told her I love you girl
But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have
But the day pressed on like crushing weights
For no man does it ever wait
Like memories of dying days
That deafen us like hurricanes
Bathed in flames we held the brand
Uncurled the fingers in your hand
Pressed into the flesh like sand
Now do you understand?
So tell me now
If this ain't love then how do we get out?
Because I don't know

I just want to save you while there's still something left to save
That's when I told her I love you girl
But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have
1000 miles away
There's nothing left to say
But so much left that I don't know
We never had a choice
This world is too much noise
It takes me under
It takes me under once again
I don't hate you
I don't hate you, no
So tell me now
If this ain't love then how do we get out?
Because I don't know
That's when she said I don't hate you boy
I just want to save you while there's still something left to save
That's when I told her I love you girl
But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have
I don't hate you
I don't hate you, no

Ani DiFranco - Done Wrong
and before it gets so cold
that the rain turns to snow
there's just a couple things
i'd like to know
like how could you do nothing
and say, i'm doing my best
how could you take almost everything
and then come back for the rest
how could you beg me to stay,
reach out your hands and plead
and then pack up your eyes and run away
as soon as i agreed
it just all slips
away so slowly
you don't even notice till you've lost a lot
i've been like one of those zombies
in vegas
pouring quarters into a slot
and now i'm tired
and i am broke
and i feel stupid and i feel used
and i'm at the end of my little rope
and i am swinging back and forth
about you
before it gets so cold
that the rain turns to snow
there's just a couple things
i'd like to know
like how could you do nothing
and say, i'm doing my best
how could you take almost everything
and then come back for the rest
how could you beg me to stay,
reach out your hands and plead
and then pack up your eyes and run away
as soon as i agreed
that the rain turns to snow
there's just a couple things
i'd like to know
like how could you do nothing
and say, i'm doing my best
how could you take almost everything
and then come back for the rest
how could you beg me to stay,
reach out your hands and plead

as soon as i agreed

DevilDriver: Horn Of Betrayal lyrics
What the fuck do you want from me?
It's so damn plain to see that you're not grateful
Silence takes courage
No scars, no truth but the wounds tell the story
Of what will be done for honor and glory
Silence is deafening
Does the end justify the means?
In all honesty, how do you sleep?
Silence takes courage
The horn of betrayal
Sounds loudly for the fallen
While mine eyes are worlds away
Watch cowards as they bend [Incomprehensible]
Scratch a liar, find a thief
Inside is where the demon dwells
So I bite my tongue and when it comes to you
Silence takes courage
Your heart needs amputation
Crying the get-lost blues, fuck you
Silence is deafening
The horn of betrayal
Sounds loudly for the fallen
While mine eyes are worlds away
Watch cowards as they bend [Incomprehensible]
Scratch a liar, find a thief
Through the lies and the blasphemy
You are fucking dead to me
You are dead to me
This de los muerte, this day of the dead
It turns for me celebration instead
Skull and bones, walking away from the throne
To seek another kingdom, another kingdom
Another kingdom, another kingdom
Your selfish lies
Your selfish waves of sorrow washed over me
Your selfish lies, like a sea of new memories, lies
It's so damn plain to see that you're not grateful
Silence takes courage
No scars, no truth but the wounds tell the story
Of what will be done for honor and glory
Silence is deafening
Does the end justify the means?
In all honesty, how do you sleep?
Silence takes courage
The horn of betrayal
Sounds loudly for the fallen
While mine eyes are worlds away
Watch cowards as they bend [Incomprehensible]
Scratch a liar, find a thief
Inside is where the demon dwells
So I bite my tongue and when it comes to you
Silence takes courage
Your heart needs amputation
Crying the get-lost blues, fuck you
Silence is deafening
The horn of betrayal
Sounds loudly for the fallen
While mine eyes are worlds away
Watch cowards as they bend [Incomprehensible]
Scratch a liar, find a thief
Through the lies and the blasphemy
You are fucking dead to me
You are dead to me
This de los muerte, this day of the dead
It turns for me celebration instead
Skull and bones, walking away from the throne
