"Hero" by Skillet

I'm just a step away

I'm a just a breath away

Losin my faith today

(Fallin off the edge today)

I am just a man not superhuman (I'm not superhuman)

Someone save me from the hate It's just another war

Just another family torn

(Falling from my faith today)

Just a step from the edge

Just another day in the world we live

I need a hero to save me now

I need a hero

(Save me now)

I need a hero to save my life

A hero'll save me

(Just in time)

I gotta fight today

To live another day

Speakin my mind today

(My voice will be heard today)

I've gotta make a stand but i am just a man

I'm not superhuman)

My voice will be heard today

It's just another war

Just another family torn

(My voice will be heard today)

It's just another kill

The countdown begins to destroy ourselves

I need a hero to save me now

I need a hero

(Save me now)

I need a hero to save my life

A hero'll save me

(Just in time)

I need a hero to save my life

I need ahero

(Just in time)

Save me just in time

Who's gonna fight for what's right

Who's gonna help us survive

We're in the fight of our lives

(And we're not ready to die)

Who's gonna fight for the weak

Who's gonna make 'em believe

I've got a hero

(I've got a hero)

Livin in me

I'm gonna fight for whats right today

I'm speaking my mind and if it kills me tonight

(I will be ready to die )

A hero's not afraid to give his life A hero's gonna save me just in time

"Everything's Just Wonderful" by Lily Allen

Do you think, everything, everyone, is going mental,

It seems to me that it's spiraling outta control and it's inevitable,

Now don't you think,

This time is yours, this time is mine,

It's temperamental,

It seems to me, we're on all fours,

Crawling on our knees,

Someone help us please

Oh Jesus Christ almighty,

Do I feel alright? No not slightly,

I wanna get a flat I know I can't afford it,

It's just the bureaucrats who won't give me a mortgage,

Well it's very funny cos I got your puppying money,

And I'm never gonna get it just because of my bad credit

Oh well I guess I mustn't grumble,

I suppose that's just the way the cookie crumbles.

Oh yes, I'm fine,

Everything's just wonderful,

I'm having the time of my life.

Don't you want something else,

Something new, than what we've got here,

And don't you feel it's all the same,

Some sick game and it's not insincere,

I wish I could change the ways of the world,

Make it a nice place

Until that day, I guess we stay,

Doing what we do

Screwing who we screw

Why can't I sleep at night,

Don't say it's gonna be alright,

I wanna be able to eat spaghetti bolognaise,

and not feel bad about it for days and days and days.

In the magazines they talk about weight loss,

If I buy those jeans I can look like Kate Moss,

Oh no it's not the life I chose,

But I guess that's the way that things go,

Oh yes, I'm fine,

Everything's just wonderful,

I'm having the time of my life.

Oh yes, I'm fine,

Everything's just wonderful,

I'm having the time of my life.

Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba

Oh Jesus Christ almighty,

Do I feel alright? No not slightly,

I wanna get a flat I know I can't afford it,

It's just the bureaucrats who won't give me a mortgage,

Well it's very funny cos I got your puppying money,

And I'm never gonna get it just because of my bad credit

Oh well I guess I mustn't grumble,

I suppose that's just the way the cookie crumbles.

Oh yes, I'm fine,

Everything's just wonderful,

I'm having the time of my life.

Oh yes, I'm fine,

Everything's just wonderful,

I'm having the time of my life.

Here's a song that fits well with me :

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="

name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

however, these lyrics are fake, but, you wouldnt notice.

the real lyrics are much more random.

"Escape" by Muse

You would say anything

And you would try anything

To escape your meaningless

And your insignificance

You're uncontrollable

And we are unlovable

And I don't want you to think that I care

I never would, I never could again

Why can't you just love her?

Why be such a monster?

You bully from a distance

Your brain needs some assistance

But I'll still take all the blame

'Cause you and me are both one and the same

And its driving me mad

And its driving me mad

I'll take back all the things that I said

I didn't realize I was talking to the living dead

And I dont want you to think that I care

I never would, I never could again

You would say anything

And you would try anything

To escape your meaningless

And your insignificance

Warm yourself by the fire, son,

And the morning will come soon.

I’ll tell you stories of a better time,

In a place that we once knew.

Before we packed our bags

And left all this behind us in the dust,

We had a place that we could call home,

And a life no one could touch.

Don’t hold me up now,

I can stand my own ground,

I don’t need your help now,

You will let me down, down, down!

Don’t hold me up now,

I can stand my own ground,

I don’t need your help now,

You will let me down, down, down!

Down!

We are the angry and the desperate,

The hungry, and the cold,

We are the ones who kept quiet,

And always did what we were told.

But we’ve been sweating while you slept so calm,

In the safety of your home.

We’ve been pulling out the nails that hold up

Everything you’ve known.

Don’t hold me up now,

I can stand my own ground,

I don’t need your help now,

You will let me down, down, down!

Don’t hold me up now,

I can stand my own ground,

I don’t need your help now,

You will let me down, down, down!

So open your eyes child,

Let’s be on our way.

Broken windows and ashes

Are guiding the way.

Keep quiet no longer,

We’ll sing through the day,

Of the lives that we’ve lost,

And the lives we’ve reclaimed.

Go!

Don’t hold me up now,

I can stand my own ground,

I don’t need your help now,

You will let me down, down, down!

Don’t hold me up now,

I can stand my own ground,

I don’t need your help now,

You will let me down, down, down!

Don’t hold me up…

(I don’t need your help, I’ll stand my ground)

Don’t hold me up…

(I don’t need your help)

No! No! No!

Don’t hold me up!

(I don’t need your help, I’ll stand my ground)

Don’t hold me up!

(I don’t need your help)

Don’t let me down, down, down, down, down!

Andrew Bird - Cataracts

When our mouths are filled with uninvited tongues of others

And the strays are pining for their unrequited mothers

Milk that sours is promptly spat

Light will fill our eyes like cats

And they shall enter from the back

With spears and scepters and squirming sacks

Scribs and tangles between their ears

Faceless scrumbled charcoal smears

Through the coppice and the chaparral

The thickets thick with mold

The bracken and the brier

Catchweed into the fold

When our mouths are filled with uninvited tongues of others

And the strays are pining for their unrequited mothers

Milk that sours is promptly spat

Light will fill our eyes like cats

Light will fill our eyes like cats

Cataracts

I just feel the need to explain a bit, simply so that the meaning doesn't fly over the heads of anybody who may be reading it. It would be a shame to lose such a meaningful song to misunderstanding. It's about having your opinions suppressed, having your voice replaced by that of someone else (Mouths filled with uninvited tongues), and how that suppression can come out of nowhere (and they shall enter from the back...charcoal smears), and the people who suppress may not even seem to be important or particularly important (Faceless scrumbled charcoal smears).

I had to explain because Andrew Bird is an exceptional lyricist, and his songs can hit close to home a lot of the time. It's good when you want something mellow that is realistic and makes a statement.

Sick Puppies-Odd One

Odd one, you're never alone

I'm here and I will reflect you

Both of us basically unattached

To anything or anyone unless we're pretending

You live your life in your head

Some call it imagination

I'd rather focus instead on anything except

What I'm feeling

What I'm feeling

Odd one...

Hey, it's gonna be okay

Hey, we're gonna laugh at this one day

Odd one, I wish I was you

You're never concerned with acceptance

We are all desperately seeking out, a

And fitting with anyone

Who will accept us

But not you, odd one

Hey, it's gonna be okay

Hey, we're gonna laugh at this one day

Hey, it's gonna be okay

Hey, gonna laugh at this one day

Hey, it's gonna be okay

Hey, we're gonna laugh at this one day

Don't let someone tell you you're no-one

Don't let someone tell you you're no-one

Odd one...

MuteMath - Pins and Needles

Paper thin conviction,

Turning another page,

Plotting how to build myself to be

Everything that I am not at all.

Sometimes I get tired of pins and needles,

Facades are a fire on the skin.

And I'm growing fond of broken people,

As I see that I am one of them.

I'm one of them. [x2]

Oh, why must I work so hard,

Just so I can feel like the noble ones?

Obligations to my heart are gone,

Superficial lines explain it all.

Sometimes I get tired of pins and needles,

Facades are a fire on the skin.

Oh, I'm growing fond of broken people,

As I see that I am one of them.

Sometimes I get tired of pins and needles,

Facades are a fire on the skin.

Oh, and I'm growing fond of broken people,

As I see that I am one of them.

I'm one of them. [x4]

"Master of Diagrams"

By: TOTALLY RADD!!

Plot it out, with pens in spiral notebooks.

Demon squads and foes with grappling hooks.

Write it down; only two dimensional.

Make the killer death rate intentional.

Master of diagrams you all must obey.

Got to be good enough to make it one day.

Develop wicked maps, trap doors- so cliche.

Light-gun blasts aliens and tanks all away.

Sometimes when the talk gets too lackluster-

LCD handheld: so I won't suffer.

Anne thinks my talent is all but precious.

When I make it big-league, she'll be jealous.

High-scores flicker, since dinner, without care or worry.

Cereal bits, underneath napkin sketch: red crayon- so blurry.

It's getting late, half-awake, ambition grown duller.

Soon fast asleep, tucked safe in bed, dreaming in 16 colors.

Master of diagrams you all must obey.

Got to be good enough to make it one day.

Develop wicked maps, trap doors- so cliche.

Light-gun blasts aliens and tanks all away.

Nowhere to go

By Melissa etheridge

I know a place

Down past an old shack

On a road that goes to nowhere

Aint nobody coming back

We can go there tonight

We can talk until dawn

Or maybe something else

Ill leave the radio on

Theres no one to hear

You might as well scream

They never woke up

From the american dream

And they dont understand

What they dont see

And they look through you

And they look past me

Oh, you and I dancing slow

And we got nowhere to go

Past the wal-mart and the prison

Down by the old v.a.

Just my jeans and my t-shirt

And my blue chevrolet

Its saturday night

Feels like everythings wrong

Ive got some strawberry wine

I wanna get you alone

Down by the muddy water

Of the mighty mo

In an old abandoned box car

Will I ever know

Dance with me forever

This moment is divine

Im so close to heaven

This hell is not mine

This hell is not mine...

"Tigerlily"

By: La Roux

Tonight out on the streets

I'm gonna follow you

Tell you all about a scene

That you would kill for

You're gonna love what's

Burning right in front of you

But you won't see it

By the light of the sun

Come out Tigerlily

You're caressing me

I'll take you up

I'll turn you on

I'll take your apathy

I wouldn't lie to you Blossom

Won't you let it go

I'm gonna give you all you want

And don't you know

That you

I know you better than this

I could be here when you call

I'll make you top of the list

And in the crush of the dark

I'll be your light in the mist

I can see you burning with desire

For a kiss

Psychobabble all upon your lips

They can sell it all they want

But you cannot agree

I don't like the taste

Of their morality

You'll find your bread and your butter

Where you fake it

And put your face in the gutter

Of a snake pit

But our communication

Is telepathy

What you give is what you get

Out of us naturally

And we can wait til the shadow grows long

And turn the page of a story

That has long since found a home

I know you better than this

I could be here when you call

I'll make you top of the list

And in the crush of the dark

I'll be your light in the mist

I can see you burning with desire

For a kiss

Psychobabble all upon your lips

Have you ever felt

Like you're being followed?

Or watched the ones that held your stare?

Turned around to see who's behind you

To find there's no one there?

Lurking in the dark

There's someone who breathes you night and day

There's a friend who wants so much more

And if they can't have you

They'll never let you walk away

And in the crush of the dark

I'll be your light in the mist

I can see you burning with desire

For a kiss

And in the crush of the dark

I'll be your light in the mist

I can see you burning with desire

For a kiss

Psychobabble all upon your lips
