Black Cat by Mayday Parade

Close up camera one
the hero sings in this scene
the boy that gets the girl gets to go home where they get married
but stop the tape,
the sunset still looks fake to me
the hero looks like he can't breathe
the damsel just left everything

you're like a black cat with a black back pack full of fireworks
and you're gonna burn the city down right now
whoa whoa
you're like a black cat with a black back pack full of fireworks
and you're gonna burn the city down right now
whoa whoa

oh close up camera two
cause the hero dies in this scene
your inspiration is the loss of absolutely everything
and flashback on the girl
as we montage every memory
and we bleed out in the bathroom sink
and we fade out as the soundtrack sings:

you're like a black cat with a black back pack full of fireworks
and you’re gonna burn the city down right now
whoa whoa
you're like a black cat with a black back pack full of fireworks
and you’re gonna burn the city down right now
whoa whoa

she said get your hands off of my star
it's not your part but all your fault
and this jealous actress has a habit of making things sound way too tragic
get your hands off of my star
it's not your part but all your fault
and this jealous actress has a habit of making things sound way too tragic

and this jealous actress has a habit
of making things sound way too tragic
oh this jealous actress has a habit
of making things sound way too tragic.

you’re like a black cat with a black back pack full of fireworks
you’re gonna burn the city down right now
whoa whoa

you're like a black cat with a black back pack full of fireworks
and you’re gonna burn the city down right now
whoa whoa
you're like a black cat with a black back pack full of fireworks
and you’re gonna burn the city down right now
whoa whoa-ahh

and this jealous actress has a habit
whoa

Lashing out the action, returning the reaction
Weak are ripped and torn away
Hypnotizing power, crushing all that cower
Battery is here to stay


Smashing through the boundaries
lunacy has found me
cannot stop the Battery
Pounding out aggression
turns into obsession
cannot kill the Battery
Cannot kill the family
Battery is found in me
Battery
Battery


Crushing all deceivers, smashing non-believers
never ending potency
Hungry violence seeker, feeding off the weaker
Breeding on insanity


Smashing through the boundaries
lunacy has found me
cannot stop the Battery
Pounding out aggression
turns into obsession
cannot kill the Battery
Cannot kill the family
Battery is found in me
Battery
Battery


Circle of Destruction, Hammer comes crushing
Powerhouse of energy
Whipping up a fury, Dominating flurry
We create the Battery


Smashing through the boundaries
lunacy has found me
cannot stop the Battery
Pounding out aggression
turns into obsession
cannot kill the Battery
Cannot kill the family
Battery is found in me
Battery
Battery
Battery
Battery

 

Rise Against - "Whereabouts Unknown"

To the ends of this lost world
You have marched and you have sworn
To a tainted crown of thorns

As the hungry sails unfurl
We are trusted from the shore
And it's you that we search for

The blackest night
The midnight sun
The covered tracks and days spent on the run
The strangers we've become

These whereabouts unknown
Please know you can come home
It's alright
I long for the moment
Our silence is broken
It's alright [x3]

Another place, another time
We toed the same side of the line
Yeah we saw eye to eye

Even then the saddest sounds,
Were nothing laughter could not drown
But we are not laughing now

I see your face
In my sights
I hesitate
And then look for a sign
Somewhere in the sky

These whereabouts unknown
Please know you can come home
It's alright
I long for the moment
Our silence is broken
It's alright [x3]

Even together, we stand apart
Swallow the sun, erase the sky
An invitation has been declined
Where did you go? Where did you go?

No whereabouts unknown
Please know you can come home
It's alright
I long for the moment
Our silence is broken
It's alright [x3]
It's alright now

It's alright now
Cuz all is forgiven
If you could just listen
It's alright

 

Viva la Vida (ruled the world)
Coldplay

I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the mornings I sleep alone
sweep the streets i used to own

I used to roll the dice
feel the fear in my enemies eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
"now the old king is dead! long live the king!"

One minute i held the key
next the walls were closed on me
and I dicovered that my castles stand
upon pillars of salt, and pillars of sand

i hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman cavalry choirs are singing
be my mirror, my sword and shield
my missionarys in a foreign field
for some reason i cant explain
once you know there was never, never an honest word
That was when i ruled the world

It was the wicked and wild wind
blew down the doors to let me in
shattered windows and the sound of drums
people couldnt believe what i'd become
revolutionarys wait
for my head on a silver plate
just a puppet on a lonely string
oh who would ever want to be king?

i hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman cavalry choirs are singing
be my mirror, my sword and shield
my missionarys in a foreign field
for some reason i cant explain
i know Saint Peter wont call my name
never an honest word
and that was when i ruled the world

Ohhhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhhh

i hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman cavalry choirs are singing
be my mirror, my sword and shield
my missionarys in a foreign field
for some reason i cant explain
i know Saint Peter will call my name
never an honest word
and that was when i ruled the world

Ooooooooooh oooooooooh Oooooooooh

VNV Nation - Epicentre

I asked myself was I content
with the world that I once cherished
did it bring me to this darkened place
to contemplate my perfect future?
I will not stand nor utter words against this tide of hate
losing sight of what and who I was again

I'm so sorry if these seething words I say
impress on you that I've become anathema of my soul

I can't say that you're losing me
I always tried to keep myself tied to this world
but I know where this is leading
please
no tears
no sympathy

I can't say that you're losing me
but I must be that which I am
though I know where this could take me
no tears
no sympathy

gracefully, respectfully
facing conflict deep inside myself
but here confined losing control
of what I could not change

gracefully, respectfully
I ask you please don't worry, not for me
don't turn your back
don't turn away

I can't say that you're losing me
I always tried to keep myself tied to this world
but I know where this is leading
please
no tears
no sympathy

I can't say that you're losing me
but I must be that which I am
though I know where this could take me
no tears
no sympathy

no tears for me, no sympathy
no tears for me, no sympathy

 

Last Journey Home - Dragonforce


Strangers to reason, our bleeding hearts so cold,
Life brings a change it seems, fear will blind the soul,
In the silence one only will know,
Cast away can it fall on the wastelands.

Send the soul from the forgotten sickness, and save his life,
Challenge the dream before the long departing, your mind is right,
Whoa, oh, oh,
Hear the burning thunder roar,
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhh.

Whoa, oh, oh,
Still lost in a fire storm,
Tonight we feel the past return.

Lost inside the dream, beside the life we'll live forever,
Still the wasted time that burning we love,
One thousand shattered voices, lost inside an endless wonder,
Tonight her voice will take me home.

(Chorus)
Shine glorious we ride, we stare into the blackened sky,
Save the last command, the virtue blinding,
So far beyond the sun, still blinded with the fire inside,
Once alone again, silence stands for our last journey home.

Our lives intensified, mutation, frustration,
Ever lasting lifetime in beyond the world,
We'll travel endlessly, they're moving, he's jointed,
One man can understand his sad misery.

Whoa, oh oh oh ohh,
Whoa, oh oh ohh,
Whoa, oh oh oh oh oh ohh.

They've taken my heart,
They've taken my soul,
And now we stand below in sanity.

In time we'll see the past unwind,
Alive, still wander in a fallen land,
One more time we stare into the blackened sky,
For tonight, in our hearts now we feel,
One last time see our destiny reveal.

(Chorus)
Shine glorious we ride, we stare into the blackened sky,
Save the last command, the virtue blinding,
So far beyond the sun, still blinded with the fire inside,
Once alone again, the silence stands for our last journey...

Shine glorious tonight, still blinded by the blackened sun,
Save the last command, forever rising,
So far beyond they come, still blinded with the fire inside,
Once alone again, silence stands for our last journey home.

Silence stands for our last journey home.

 

Starlight - Muse

Far away
This ship is taking me far away
Far away from the memories
Of the people who care if I live or die

Starlight
I will be chasing the starlight
Until the end of my life
I don't know if it's worth it anymore

Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold
You in my arms

My life
You electrify my life
Let's conspire to re-ignite
All the souls that would die just to feel alive

But I'll never let you go
If you promised not to fade away
Never fade away

Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations
Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations

Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold
You in my arms

Far away
This ship is taking me far away
Far away from the memories
Of the people who care if I live or die

And I'll never let you go
If you promise not to fade away
Never fade away

Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations
Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations

Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold
You in my arms
I just wanted to hold

 

Meant to Live - Switchfoot

Fumbling his confidence
And wond’ring why the world has passed him by
Hoping that he’s meant for more than arguments
And failed attempts to fly, fly

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside
Somewhere we live inside
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside

Dreaming about providence
And whether mice or men have second tries
Maybe we’ve been livin with our eyes half open
Maybe we’re bent and broken, broken

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside
Somewhere we live inside
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside

We want more than this world’s got to offer
We want more than this world’s got to offer
We want more than the wars of our fathers
And everything inside screams for second life

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live
We were meant to live

 

The Necklace Of Marie Antoinette - Hannah Fury

I'll make it look like an accident

I'll make it look like he was trying to hurt me

I'll make it seem like I was innocent

I'll make him wish he had never met me

I'll make it look like a suicide

I'll make it look like it was meant to be

I'll make it seem like I was innocent

I'll make the strychnine taste like raspberry tea

I fear for your soul (as you sow, you shall reap)

I know me, I'm so low (as you sow, you shall reap)

I spread the soul poison quietly

I make him think that he wanted it from me

I make it seem like I'm innocent

This disease will feel like solidarity

I know me
​

I love this woman.

 

Hit the Floor - Bullet for my Valentine

I see you walking home alone
Your face is alive and bright

But you can't see how weak you are 'cause i could end it tonight

It's the feeling you get when you think that someone behind is watching you

Well i can tell you know that someone is me and i'm about to make it right

Why do you take it all?
why do i beg for more?
I never thought that this is how i'd hit the floor
Why do you take it all?
Why do i beg for more?
I never thought that this is how I'd HIT THE FLOOR


I creep up from behind, touch your neck
move down your spine

you take a look and breathe so sharp
just a matter of time

Don't scream i ask of you but then you let one out
so now its time to go

I come down on you like a ton of bricks
all over so it's time to go


Why do you take it all?
why do i beg for more?
I never thought that this is how i'd hit the floor
Why do you take it all?
Why do i beg for more?
I never thought that this is how I'd hit the floor [HIT THE FLOOR]

Whoa oh
Whoa oh
Whoa oh
Whoa oh

Why do you take it all?
why do i beg for more?
I never thought that this is how i'd hit the floor
Why do you take it all?
Why do i beg for more?
I never thought that this is how I'd HIT THE FLOOR!

Take this from me, I don't wanna hurt you
Take this from me, I DON'T WANNA HURT YOU!!!!

 

"Goodbye May Seem Forever" from The Fox and the Hound

We met, it seems, such a short time ago
You looked at me - needing me so
Yet from your sadness
Our happiness grew
And I found out I needed you too
I remember how we used to play
I recall those rainy days
The fire's glow
That kept us warm
And now I find - we're both alone

Goodbye may seem forever
Farewell is like the end
But in my heart is a memory
And there you'll always be​

 

A Whisper and A Claymore - Anberlin

Growing tired of bedside resolve
Public display of depression
Something's got to give now
Something's going to break down
I grow tired of writing songs
While people listen but never hear what's really going on now
Tell me what's so wrong now

Clap your hands all ye children
There's a clamor in your whispering
Clap your hands tonight
Hear what the silence screams
Clap your hands
Clap your hands now all ye children
Clap your hands all ye children
There's a clamor in your whispering tonight

For most who live and breathe
Hell is never knowing who they are now
Tell me who you are now
Finally safe from the outside trapped in what you know
Are you safe from yourself? Can you escape all by yourself?

Clap your hands all ye children
There's a clamor in your whispering
Clap your hands tonight
Hear what the silence screams
Clap your hands
Clap your hands now all ye children
Clap your hands all ye children
There's a clamor in your whispering tonight
Clap your hands
Clap your hands now all ye children
Clap your hands
There's a clamor in your whispering tonight

It's not the lies that you sing
But what the silence will scream
It's not the lies that you sing
But what the silence will scream
It's not the lies that you sing
But what the silence will scream

Clap your hands all ye children
There's a clamor in your whispering
Clap your hands tonight
Hear what the silence screams
Clap your hands
Clap your hands now all ye children
Clap your hands all ye children
There's a clamor in your whispering tonight ​

 

Everytime We Touch - Cascada

I still hear your voice,
When you sleep next to me.
I still feel your touch,
In my dreams.

Forgive me my weakness,
But I don't know why.
Without you it's hard to survive...

'Cuz every time we touch,
I get this feeling.
And every time we kiss,
I swear I could fly.

Can't you feel my heart beat fast,
I want this to last.
I need you by my side.

'Cuz every time we touch,
I feel the static.
And every time we kiss,
I reach for the sky.

Can't you feel my heart beat so,
I can't let you go.
I want you in my life.

Your arms are my castle,
Your heart is my sky.
They wpe away tears,
That I cry.

The good and the bad times,
We've been through them all.
You make me rise,
When I fall!

'Cuz every time we touch,
I get this feeling.
And every time we kiss,
I swear I could fly.

Can't you feel my heart beat fast,
I want this to last.
I need you by my side.

'Cuz every time we touch,
I feel the static.
And every time we kiss,
I reach for the sky.

Can't you feel my heart beat so,
I can't let you go.
I want you in my life.

'Cuz every time we touch,
I get this feeling.
And every time we kiss,
I swear I could fly.

Can't you feel my heart beat fast,
I want this to last.
I need you by my side.

 

Diary of Jane- Breaking Benjamin

If I had to
I would put myself right beside you
So let me ask
Would you like that?
Would you like that?

And I don't mind
If you say this love is the last time
So now I'll ask
Do you like that?
Do you like that?

NO!!

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane
So tell me how it should be

Try to find out what makes you tick
As I lie down
Sore and sick
Do you like that?
Do you like that?

There's a fine line between love and hate
And I don't mind
Just let me say that I like that
I like that

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane
As I burn another page
As I look the other way
I still try to find my place in the diary of Jane
So tell me how it should be

Desperate, I will crawl
Waiting for so long
No love, there is no love
Die for anyone
What have I become

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane
As I burn another page
As I look the other way
I still try to find my place
In the diary of Jane

Astral Romance- Nightwish

A nocturnal concerto
Candlelight whispers me where to go
Hymn of gathering stars as my guide
As I wander on this path of the night

Embroidery of the stars
Undress my feelings for this earth
Send me your salva to heal my scars
And let this nakedness be my birth

Macrocosm poured its powers on me
And the hopes of this world I now must leave
The nightwish I sent to you centuries ago
Has been heard by those
Who dwelled in a woe

The distance of our bridal bed
Await for me to be dead
Dust of the galaxies take my hand
Lead me to my beloved's land

Departed by the guillotine of death
I received a letter from the depth
The dream of my lover it carried inside

Caressed by the sharpest knife
I asked you to be my wife
Rays of the setting sun
Where my tears wept upon promises undone

Come to me
Make me believe
to you and your love again

Above the universe
Beneath the Great Eye
I shall desire you forevermore

 

Under My Feet - Celldweller

So this is how it feels to suffer?
And I had too much to say
But it's over now
And I'm going down
Alone, alone

I've no guarantees
I'll recognize my disease
Before my time has gone

It's all I've found
Can't get the hell off the ground
Out from under my feet

Promises and wishes all mean nothing
When it's me that I'm speaking to

Wanting something
Won't mean I will see it through

I don't need to see these visions to remind me
That I'm dying from the inside out

Wanting you here
It still means I must do without

I can't criticize your reasons for living
When you're the one missing them

Wanting, dreaming
That I may find where they come from

Find where they come from
(Where they come from)

I dream you
And I want to
Be near you

(I can't get up out from under my feet)

I've tried to
But can't get it through

I need to

God is all I've found
Can't get the hell off the ground
Out from under my feet

So this is how it feels, you suffer
And you've had too much to say
But it's over now
You're finally going down
Alone, alone

 

Assemblage 23 - Document

In stillness
A silent weight
Pausing as the minutes each evaporate

A desire
To leave a scar
To raise a voice from within the dark

Decaying
Cascading
Existence falls apart
Around me
Within me
So I must leave my mark

CHORUS
This is a document
To prove that I was here
This is a document
To prove I was at all
And when my voice ceases to be
Will the echo still ring loudly?
And when there's nothing left of me
Will my memory still go on?

A flicker
Transitory state
An echo of an instance that burns a way

A moment
A shard of time
A solitary thread that threatens to unwind

Decaying
Cascading
Existence falls apart
Around me
Within me
So I must leave my mark

(CH)

Distant
An approaching age
When this document falls beneath another's gaze

Too late
We have lost the dawn
The signal's loud and clear, but the transmitter's gone

Decaying
Cascading
Existence falls apart
Around me
Within me
So I must leave my mark

(CHx2)

 

Hero of War - Rise Against

He said "Son, have you seen the world?
Well, what would you say if I said that you could?
Just carry this gun and you'll even get paid."
I said "That sounds pretty good."

Black leather boots
Spit-shined so bright
They cut off my hair but it looked alright
We marched and we sang
We all became friends
As we learned how to fight

A hero of war
Yeah that's what I'll be
And when I come home
They'll be damn proud of me
I'll carry this flag
To the grave if I must
Because it's a flag that I love
And a flag that I trust

I kicked in the door
I yelled my commands
The children, they cried
But I got my man
We took him away
A bag over his face
From his family and his friends

They took off his clothes
They pissed in his hands
I told them to stop
But then I joined in
We beat him with guns
And batons not just once
But again and again

A hero of war
Yeah that's what I'll be
And when I come home
They'll be damn proud of me
I'll carry this flag
To the grave if I must
Because it's a flag that I love
And a flag that I trust

She walked through bullets and haze
I asked her to stop
I begged her to stay
But she pressed on
So I lifted my gun
And I fired away

The shells jumped through the smoke
And into the sand
That the blood now had soaked
She collapsed with a flag in her hand
A flag white as snow

A hero of war
Is that what they see
Just medals and scars
So damn proud of me
And I brought home that flag
Now it gathers dust
But it's a flag that I love
It's the only flag I trust

He said, "Son, have you seen the world?
Well what would you say, if I said that you could?"

Your lipstick, his collar.. don't bother Angel

My finger on the trigger, or

Me face down, down across your floor

Well just so long as this thing's loaded

And will you tell all your friends

And will you tell all your friends

Hoping for the best just hoping nothing happens
A thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins
I will never ask if you don't ever tell me
I know you well enough to know you never loved me
Hoping for the best just hoping nothing happens
A thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins
I will never ask if you don't ever tell me
I know you well enough to know you never loved me
Hoping for the best just hoping nothing happens
A thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins
I will never ask if you don't ever tell me
I know you well enough to know...

Why can't I feel anything
from anyone other than you?
Why can't I feel anything
from anyone other than you?

And all of this was all your fault
And all of this

(I stay jealous)
I stay wrecked and jealous for this,
for this simple reason
I just need to keep you in mind
as something larger than life
(she'll destroy us all before she's through
and find a way to blame somebody else)
I stay wrecked and jealous for this,
for this simple reason
I just need to keep you in mind
as something larger than life

I stay wrecked and jealous for this,
for this simple reason
I just need to keep you in mind
as something larger than life!

 

Let's find a rock
I mean a big-ass rock
Or maybe something like
A cinder block is better
I'll hoist it up
And drop it on your face, my buddy

And just before the lights go out
You'll see my smile and you'll know
You've got a friend
With a rock
Who cares
I mean a big-ass rock

Or rope
I got some quality rope
Made for a man who's devoid of hope
Like you are, my buddy
Michael -

Unh, that's Malcolm.

Malcolm. Right!

And I won't leave you swinging there
Twitching like a fish while you claw the air
I'll grab your feet
And pal o' mine
I'll pull real hard
And snap your spinal cord

The world is cold when you're alone and
They ignore you
But don't kill yourself

We'll do it for you
You've got a friend

You know, I asked a guy once if he'd mind putting me in a barrel
and sending me over the falls.
You know what the son of a ***** said? "Drop dead, *******."

People are pricks. I asked this guy to take his air compressor
and drill me with a six-inch nail right through the eye...

What'd he say?

"I'm low on nails."

People are selfish pricks.

Another time, now get this,
I just lay down in front of a steam roller and asked the guy just to proceed,
you know, business as usual, and just squash me like a bug.

That's a good way to go, Jer, the ol' bug squash.
We could tie a plastic laundry bag over his head.

Naw, that's such a wimp suicide.

I stuck my finger in a socket once. It hurt real bad...but it didn't kill me.

Malcolm, stay out of this.

I've got a friend
Like Carole King
Or was it Carly Simon
Used to sing?
I always get those two confused
But anyway -

I turned around
And suddenly
I'm not alone
It ain't just me
I'm like a player on the team
I'm part of the gang...
A member of the club Jerry & Dave
Player on our team
Part of the gang
Welcome to the club

Oo ... let's get a club

I like the big-ass rock

Naw, one good swing and
I'll clean his clock forever

Let gravity do the work!

It's a man's way to die, Mikey.

Malcolm!

I got friends

Oo...
I've got friends

Oo...

Friends who will
Love you like a maniac
And lead you like a lamb
To the railroad track
And tie you down

Or tickle your wrist
With a single-edge razor
Or buy you a beer with
A Draino chaser
Or dump you in the
River with a rock

A big-ass rock

Here's a nice one right over here

Can I give you a hand with that? It looks heavy.

No Dave
It's ain't heavy...he's my friend

Come on, group hug.

 

I don't feel like writing the whole lyrics. Look 'em up if you want them.

"Nothing can steal my soul away
Nothing keeps me away
You'll never know I'm still thinkin' about you
No one can take my breath away
No one can lead my way
You'll never know I'm still livin' beside you
I'm still in love with you"
