Under and Over it - Five Finger Death Punch

Yeah, go!

Did you hear the one about me being a punk?
Did you hear the one about me being a drunk?
Did you hear the one about me losing my nerve?
Or how I’m just another fucking sheep in the herd?
Did you hear about the money, how it made me change?
So funny to me, all the time that they waste.
Did you hear the word about me giving a shit?
‘Cause if I ever did I don’t remember it.

You can be me and I will be you.
You can live just like a star.
I’ll take my sanity, you take the fame.
I’m under and over it all.
(I’m under and over it.)

Did you hear the word about me playing the game?
Selling my soul and changing my name.
Did you hear the word about me being a prick?
Did you know I don’t care? You can suck my…
Did you hear the word about me trying to die?
Fist in the air and a finger to the sky.
Do I care if you hate me? Do you wanna know the truth?
C’est la vie….adiós….good riddance….fuck you!

You can be me and I will be you.
You can live just like a star.
I’ll take my sanity, you take the fame.
I’m under and over it all.
(I’m under and over it.)
I, I, I’m under and over it.
I, I, I’m under and over it.
I, I, I’m under and over it.
I, I, I’m under and over it.

You can be me and I will be you.
You can live just like a star.
I’ll take my sanity, you take the fame.
I’m under and over it all.
(I’m under and over it.)
I’m under and over it all.
(I’m under and over it.)
I, I, I’m under and over it.
I, I, I’m under and over it.

One Day Remains - Alter Bridge

As your will is bent and broken
And every vision has been cast into the wind
As your courage crashes down before your eyes
Don’t lay down and die.

‘Cause I see in you
More than you’ll ever know
And I ask you
“Why you question the strength inside?”
And you need to know
How it feels to be alive.

When every wound has been re-opened
And in this world of give and take, you must have faith
And the distance to your dreams stretch beyond reach
Don’t lay down and die, no.

Cause I see in you
More than you’ll ever know
And I ask you
“Would you question the strength inside?”
And you need to know
How it feels to be alive…

How it feels
How it feels to be alive…
How it feels
How it feels to be alive…
How it feels
How it feels to be alive…

Cause I see in you
More than you’ll ever know
And I ask you, “Would
You question the strength inside?”
And you need to know
How it feels to be alive…
How it feels to be alive…

Last Person - Jenny Owen Youngs

Well you’re sitting on a barstool
Keeping motionless as you can be
Thinking maybe, if you’re lucky
Life is like T-Rex and stillness will sweep you away
To where it’s safe.

‘Cause you’re feeling
Like you’re the last person
Left on the planet tonight
And you’re scanning, the horizon
Seeking out signs of life
And you pray that you’re wrong
But you’re right, so hold on tight.

‘Cause all that stares back at you
Are bloodless zombie eyes
Why don’t you come home with me tonight
Aright, alright.

Not trying to make you think
This is some kind of great big deal
I just know exactly how you feel
I could be the thing you reach for
In the middle of the night
Let me be the one who treats you right
Let me be the one who treats you right.

Now I know you’ve never seen me
There’s no reason for you to pay mind
But I’m asking, very nicely
And all it takes is one step
To start leaving the dead behind
And try out walking life.

I mean what’s the worst thing
(What’s the worst thing)
That could happen
We find out that we don’t quite fit
But on the flip side
(On the flip side)
We could be just right
And sure there’s the chance
That we’ll both end up broken and split
But that’s my kind of risk.

So quit worrying where they’ll fall
If you should roll the dice
Why don’t you come home with me tonight
Alright, alright.

Not trying to make you think
This is some kind of great big deal
I just know exactly how you feel
I could be the thing you reach for
In the middle of the night
Let me be the one who treats you right
Let me be the one who treats you right
Let me be the one who treats you right.

(I went through and checked these myself, twice. So if they’re wrong I need a hearing test. :P)

Bricks - Jenny Owen Youngs

Theres bricks in the yard
Falling where they flew,
I’m sure mom and dad
Wont give a sitch for one or two.
Building no hagards that travel left to rest.
Building is better but breaking is easy and i dont know which to trust.
I think there must be something wrong with me.
Like the path that goes unwatched among the very finest edge,
My eyes are all wide and my stomach decends.

And i’ll do whatver you say,
I’ll say whatever you want
If you just put that away
If you just perish that thought.
Why can’t we be a normal family?

And i’ll count my footsteps across the garden stones,
The faintest love glides six above cement and rust and bones.
And i’ll gather my eggshells softly i guess till i have enough to fill up the nest you’re on.
I’ll draw up the blue prints but i’ll never use them.
Now i’ve only ever offered you myself and you always say it’s not enough.
Pray for your paralysis while i’m coating for your touch.

And i’ll do whatver you say
I will say whatever you want
If you just put that away
If you just perish that thought

Oh you talk about violence like it doesnt exsist
Like a fire is a womb,
And a womb is a fist.
And i’ll bend withforthee
When your tongue comes unglued
But ill seize up inside
If your mouth says it’s true.

Don’t you wanna be a normal family?
A normal family.

I’m a steel wall
I don’t want to see anything at all.
I’m a steel wall
I don’t need to feel anything at all.
I don’t want to see anything, and i don’t need to feel anything,
And i don’t want to know anything at all

Song of the Day:

Dizzy - Jimmy Eat World

You close your eyes and kiss your hand then you blow it.
But it isn’t meant for me, and I notice
If the choice was ours alone,
Then why’d we both choose letting go?
Does it end like this?

Time never had a chance to heal your heart
Just a number always counting down to a new start
If you always knew the truth
Then the world would spin around you
Are you dizzy yet?

[Chorus:]
Respectfully, so honestly I’m calling out
Do you hear the conversation we talk about?
Back away to the safety of a quiet house
If there’s half a chance in this moment
When your eyes meet mine, we show it off.

All talk and not a lot to think, we were living dreams
And shame never crept close to our naked feet
If there’s something left to lose,
Then don’t let me wear out my shoes
I’m still walking.

I tried, but it rang and rang, I called all night
On a payphone, remember those from another life?
If everything I meant to you,
You can lick and seal then fold in two
Then I’ve been so blind.

[Chorus]

Oh, oh take it all back, take the first, the last and only.
Oh, oh take it all back, take it all back,
Everything you showed me.
Oh, oh this must be how it feels when the feeling goes

I told you as I hovered, I never felt this way
You said I have the shot that stops my clock
Baby it’s OK
You said you’d never have regrets
Jesus, is there someone yet
Who got their wish; did you get yours, babe?

[Chorus]

Song of the day:

Rockin’ the Suburbs - Ben Folds

Let me tell y’all what it’s like
Being male, middle-class and white
It’s a bitch, if you don’t believe
Listen up to my new CD
(Sha-mon)

I got shit runnin’ throught my brain
It’s so intense that I can’t explain
All alone in my white-boy pain
Shake your booty while the band complains

I’m rockin’ the suburbs
Just like Michael Jackson did
I’m rockin’ the suburbs
Except that he was talented
I’m rockin’ the suburbs
I take the cheques and face the facts
That some producer with computers fixes all my shitty tracks

I’m pissed off but I’m too polite
When people break in the McDonald’s line
Mom and Dad you made me so uptight
I’m gonna cuss on the mic tonight

I don’t know how much I can take
Girl, give me something I can break

I’m rockin’ the suburbs
Just like Quiet Riot did
I’m rockin’ the suburbs
Except that they were talented
I’m rockin’ the suburbs
I take the cheques and face the facts
That some producer with computers fixes all my shitty tracks

In a haze these days
I pull up to the stop light
I can feel that something’s not right
I can feel that someone’s blasting me with hate
And bass
Sendin’ dirty vibes my way
‘Cause my great great great great Grandad
Made someones’ great great great great Grandaddies slaves
It wasn’t my idea
It wasn’t my idea
Never was my idea

I just drove to the store
For some Preparation-H

Y’all don’t know what it’s like
Being male, middle-class and white
Y’all don’t know what it’s like
Being male, middle-class and white
Y’all don’t know what it’s like
Being male, middle-class and white
Y’all don’t know what it’s like
Being male, middle class and white

It gets me real pissed off, it makes me wanna say
It gets me real pissed off and it makes me wanna say
It gets me real pissed off and it makes me wanna say
FUCK!

Just like Jon Bon Jovi did
I’m rockin’ the suburbs
Except that he was talented
I’m rockin’ the suburbs
I take the cheques and face the facts
That some producer with computers fixes all my shitty tracks

These days
Yeah yeah
I’m rockin’ the suburbs
Yeah yeah
I’m rockin’ the suburbs
Yeah yeah

You’d better look out, because I’m gonna say ‘Fuck’
You’d better look out, because I’m gonna say ‘Fuck’
You’d better look out, because I’m gonna say ‘Fuck’
You’d better look out, because I’m gonna say ‘Fuck’

Song of the day:

Alter Bridge - Burn it Down

Drank so much last night
I think that I drowned
But now my cup is empty
No one has seen my will around
Now my heart is aching
Sometimes I fall asleep for days
But my bed is empty
I know I am too set in my ways
Tell all I am ok

So burn it down
Discover the dusk of your day
Has reached its dawn
So burn it down
Remember to find a new way to carry on

Flew so high last night
I think that I fell to the ground so heavy
Woke up to find this living hell
It used to be so easy
Hard to tell my nights now from my days
The curtains hide my feelings
Don’t feel I have any right to pray
And they will find me someday, Someday

So burn it down
Discover the dusk of your day
Has reached its dawn
So burn it down
Remember to find a new way to carry on
So burn it down
Discover the dusk of your day
Has reached its dawn
So burn it down
Remember to find a new way to carry on

And whatever takes us anyway
Will be the same to drive us on
Remember to find a new day

So burn it down
Discover the dusk of your day
Has reached its dawn
So burn it down
Remember to find a new way to carry on
So burn it down
Discover the dusk of your day
Has reached its dawn
So burn it down
Remember to find a new way to carry on

Song of the day:

The King Blues - Headbutt

She had a scream that rattled
The seeds inside the apples
When she uncaged her cackle
Jackals travelled just to battle
She gives the girls screwface
And the men crooked neck
When she walked by my place
I heard a string quartet
Asthmatics lose their breath
The traffic all gets wrecked
The Smokers laps collect
All Their dropped cigarettes
Kids fall onto the decks
Cos they don’t watch their steps
And when they’re on the floor
They draw her on their etch a sketch
She says that life is like a jungle
And not like a zoo
Participate, don’t spectate,
Become the view
Man if Scarface said it
It’s just got to be true
So this world, this world right here
This world is for you

I said to all my mates, she won’t make a monkey out of me
But when she kissed me it felt like a headbutt
It felt like a headbutt

Staring up at the ceiling
Nurses face disbelieving
Scalpel on arteries
Organs taken larcenies
Holds it up like a trophy
But that heart belongs to Sophie
Slices pieces of me
Each one beats individually
So now I bite the bullet
I’ll try to chew right through it
Grinds my teeth to the gums
I gots to see what I’ve become
There is danger ahead
With a mouthful of lead
But when I fly
It gets harder to deny
So I stood on the shore trying to blow the clouds away
Right back into the sky made out of papier mache
The Sparkles from the moon, danced on top of the waves
Like they knew it was the last song ever to be played

I said to all my mates, she won’t make a monkey out of me
But when she kissed me it felt like a headbutt
It felt like a headbutt

She was up high on the stage just dancing it
Breathing fire like God himself had demanded it
Like he’d personally asked and commanded it
Heaven’s packed but thanks to her they’re still cramming it
She made the sinners blessed by the way that she dressed
Stripteasing, fire breathing, dancing burlesque
Producing beads of cold sweats on mens foreheads
She says welcome to the city of the suffragettes
And if you step out with me you’d better step correct

I said to all my mates, she won’t make a monkey out of me
But when she kissed me it felt like a headbutt
It felt like a headbutt

Ingrid Michaelson - Mountain and the Sea

You call me a Mountain  
And I call you the sea  
I’ll stand tall and certain  
And watch you swallow me  
 
You can move me if you want to  
You can move a mountain, you can move a mountain  
You can move me if you want to  
You can move everything, you can move everything  
 
I will grow my own trees  
While you follow the moon  
I feel you in my knees  
Say you’ll come in soon  
 
You can move me if you want to  
You can move a mountain, you can move a mountain  
You can move me if you want to  
You can move everything, you can move everything  
 
But then one day you’ll go away, but I will too  
But until then, oh my darling friend, well I will hold  
Yes I will hold, yes I will hold  
Yes I will hold on to you  
 
You can move me if you want to  
You can move a mountain, you can move a mountain  
You can move me if you want to  
You can move everything, you can move everything
