Whisper - A Fine Frenzy

eager to please, trying to be what they need
but i'm so very tired
i've stopped trying to find any peace in my mind
because it tangles the wires

Masterpiece Theater, part one - Marianas Trench

i've been here so very long
and every word is calculated
never questioned or debated

all these practiced poses
i could wreck it if i had to
but i'm the wreck, so what would that do?

if i burn out, and slip away
if this is just a part i portray
and this is just a part i portray...

Uninstall - Chiaki Ishikawa

uninstall, uninstall
i was told that i am just one of the countless specks on this planet
but that is something i cannot yet comprehend
uninstall, uninstall
i have no choice but to pretend that i am a warrior who knows no fear

it's not a bad thing to uninstall

Song for a Friend - Jason Mraz

you shouldn't mumble when you speak
but keep your tongue up in your cheek
and when you stumble onto something better
remember that it's humble that you seek

you've got all the skill you need
individuality
you've got something, call it gumption
call it anything you want

because when you play the fool, you're only fooling everyone else
you're learning to love yourself

climb up over the top
survey the state of the soul
you've got to find out for yourself whether or not you're truly trying
why not give it a shot?
shake it, take control
and inevitably wind up finding for yourself
all the strength that you have inside of you

Under Pressure - Queen

it's the terror of knowing what this world is about
watching some good friends screaming 'let me out'

turned away from it all like a blind man
sat on a fence, but it don't work

insanity laughs, under pressure we're cracking

why can't we give ourselves one more chance?

'cause love's such an old-fashioned word
and love dares you to care for the people on the edge of the night
and love dares you to change our way of caring about ourselves
this is our last dance
this is ourselves under pressure

The Cave - Mumford and Sons

it's empty in the valley of your heart
the sun, it rises slowly as you walk
away from all the fears and all the faults you've left behind

but i will hold on hope
and i won't let you choke on the noose around your neck
and i'll find strength in pain
and i will change my ways
i'll know my name as it's called again

Timshel - Mumford and Sons

cold is the water
it freezes your already cold mind
already cold, cold mind

and death is at your doorstep
and it will steal your innocence
but it will not steal your substance

but you are not alone in this
and you are not alone in this
as brothers we will stand, and we'll hold your hand
hold your hand

Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen

mama, ooh
didn't mean to make you cry
if i'm not back again this time tomorrow
carry on, carry on
as if nothing really matters

it's too late, my time has come
sends shivers down my spine
body's aching all the time

goodbye, everybody, i've got to go
got to leave you all behind and face the truth

mama, ooh
i don't want to die
i sometimes wish i'd never been born at all

What a Good Boy - Barenaked Ladies

and when you were born, they looked at you and said
"what a good girl, what a smart girl, what a pretty girl."

we've got these chains hanging around our necks
people want to strangle us with them before we take our first breath
afraid of change, afraid of staying the same
when temptation calls, we just look away

i wake up scared, i wake up strange
i wake up wondering if anything in my life is ever gonna change
i wake up scared, i wake up strange
and everything around me stays the same

Can't Go Back Now - The Weepies

yesterday when you were young, everything you needed done was done for you
now you do it on your own, but you find you're all alone
what can you do?

you know there will be days when you're so tired that you can't take another step
the night will have no stars
and you'll think you've gone as far as you will ever get

i can't really say why everybody wishes they were somewhere else
but in the end the only steps that matter are the ones you take all by yourself

you, and me,
walk on, walk on, walk on,
'cause you can't go back now.

walk on, walk on, walk on,
'cause you can't go back now.

How Far We've Come - Matchbox Twenty

waking up at the start of the end of the world
but it's feeling just like every other morning before
now i wonder what my life is going to mean if it's gone
the cars are moving like half a mile an hour
and i started staring at the passengers who are waving goodbye

can you tell me what was ever really special about me all this time?

i believe the world is burning to the ground
oh well, i guess we're going to find out
let's see how far we've come.

Rabbit Heart (Raise it Up) - Florence and the Machine

the looking glass so shiny and new
how quickly the glamour fades
i start spinning, slipping out of time
was that the wrong pill to take?

you made a deal, now it seems you have to offer up
but will it ever be enough?
it's not enough

here i am, a rabbit-hearted girl
frozen in the headlights
it seems i've made the final sacrifice

i look around and i can't find you
if only i could see your face
instead of rushing toward the skyline
i wish that i could just be brave

i must become a lion-hearted girl
ready for the fight
before i make the final sacrifice

this is a gift, it comes with a price
who is the lamb and who is the knife?

Home - Phillip Phillips

settle down, it'll all be clear
don't pay no mind to the demons, they fill you with fear
the trouble, it might drag you down
if you get lost, you can always be found

just know you're not alone
'cause i'm gonna make this place your home.
