Might trigger, might not.

BIF NAKED ~ Tell On You.

It seemed like days had passed...

are you finished?

I could no longer

move my arms.

The only thing left in the room

was the silence:

Can you still hear the breaking glass

when it hit my face?

Even the mice were laughing

at the smell of pain,

here we go again

to the depths of no return:

Please remember: I know who you are.

Someday, I'll have the strength to tell.

As the man looked over me

with his inquiries,

I swore you never did it.

I licked the sweat from my palms.

Alone am I with your face burned in my mind.

You are the one (the fucker) who deserves to die.

It should have never been me.

Please remember: I know who you are.

Someday, I'll have the strength to tell.

I pray for you as a little boy.

What must have happened to make you so cruel?

(and I pray that you rot in hell)

Please remember: I know who you are.

Someday, I'll have the strength to tell

: on you

My very first healing song.

Madonna - Live To Tell Lyrics

I have a tale to tell

Sometimes it gets so hard to hide it well

I was not ready for the fall

Too blind to see the writing on the wall

Chorus:

A man can tell a thousand lies

I've learned my lesson well

Hope I live to tell

The secret I have learned, 'till then

It will burn inside of me

I know where beauty lives

I've seen it once, I know the warmth she gives

The light that you could never see

It shines inside, you can't take that from me

(chorus)

2nd Chorus:

The truth is never far behind

You kept it hidden well

If I live to tell

The secret I knew then

Will I ever have the chance again

If I ran away, I'd never have the strength

To go very far

How would they hear the beating of my heart

Will it grow cold

The secret that I hide, will I grow old

How will they hear

When will they learn

How will they know

(chorus)

(2nd chorus)

soulconstance

This might seem like a weird one, probably... but it always helps me when I feel down... probably because it talks about a lot of the things I've experienced and been through and also has some happiness with the sadness.

Alanis Morissette - Thank You

How bout getting off of these antibiotics

How bout stopping eating when I'm full up

How bout them transparent dangling carrots

How bout that ever elusive kudo

Thank you India

Thank you terror

Thank you disillusionment

Thank you frailty

Thank you consequence

Thank you thank you silence

How bout me not blaming you for everything

How bout me enjoying the moment for once

How bout how good it feels to finally forgive you

How bout grieving it all one at a time

Thank you India

Thank you terror

Thank you disillusionment

Thank you frailty

Thank you consequence

Thank you thank you silence

The moment I let go of it was

The moment I got more than I could handle

The moment I jumped off of it was

The moment I touched down

How bout no longer being masochistic

How bout remembering your divinity

How bout unabashedly bawling your eyes out

How bout not equating death with stopping

Thank you India

Thank you providence

Thank you disillusionment

Thank you nothingness

Thank you clarity

Thank you thank you silence

Artist: Kate Bush Lyrics

Song: This Woman's Work Lyrics

Pray God you can cope.

I stand outside this woman's work,

This woman's world.

Ooh, it's hard on the man,

Now his part is over.

Now starts the craft of the father.

I know you have a little life in you yet.

I know you have a lot of strength left.

I know you have a little life in you yet.

I know you have a lot of strength left.

I should be crying, but I just can't let it show.

I should be hoping, but I can't stop thinking

Of all the things I should've said,

That I never said.

All the things we should've done,

That we never did.

All the things I should've given,

But I didn't.

Oh, darling, make it go,

Make it go away.

Give me these moments back.

Give them back to me.

Give me that little kiss.

Give me your hand.

(I know you have a little life in you yet.

I know you have a lot of strength left.

I know you have a little life in you yet.

I know you have a lot of strength left.)

I should be crying, but I just can't let it show.

I should be hoping, but I can't stop thinking

Of all the things we should've said,

That were never said.

All the things we should've done,

That we never did.

All the things that you needed from me.

All the things that you wanted for me.

All the things that I should've given,

But I didn't.

Oh, darling, make it go away.

Just make it go away now.

+44 Lyrics (former Blink182 members)

BABY COME ON

she's a pretty girl

she's always falling down

and i think i just fell in love with her

but she won't ever remember

and i can always find her

at the bottom of a plastic cup

drowning in drunk sincerity

a sad and lonely girl

quit crying your eyes out

quit crying your eyes out and baby come on

isn't there something familiar about me?

the past is only the future with the lights on

quit crying your eyes out baby

and she said, "i think we're running out of alcohol

tonight i hate this f***ing town

and all my best friends will be the death of me

but they wont ever remember

so please take me far away

before i melt into the ground

and all my words are used against me"

you sad and lonely girl

quit crying your eyes out

quit crying your eyes out and baby come on

isn't there something familiar about me?

the past is only the future with the lights on

quit crying your eyes out baby

I listen to a lot of music so I have a lot of songs that help me through. My top four are the following sorry if any of these have already been posted.

Artist: Bette Midler

Song: The Rose

Album: Experience the Divine

The rose

Some say love, it is a river, that drowns the tender reed

Some say love, it is a razor, that leaves your soul to bleed

Some say love, it is a hunger, an endless aching need

I say love, it is a flower, and you, its only seed

Its the heart afraid of breaking, that never learns to dance

Its the dream afraid of waking, that never takes the chance

Its the one who wont be taken, the one who cant seem to give

And the soul afraid of dying, that never learns to live

When the night has been too lonely and the road has been too long

And you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong

Just remember that in the winter, far beneath the bitter snow

Lies the seed, that with the suns love in the spring becomes the rose.

Artist: Ben E. King

Song: Stand by Me

Album: Stand by Me Soundtrack

When the night has come,

and the land is dark.

And the moon,

is the only light we'll see.

No, I won't, be afraid

Oh I-iiiiii won't

Be afraid

Just as long as you

stand, stand by me.

So darlin', darlin'

stand...by me

Ohhhh stand by me (x2)

Stand by me,

Stand by me.

If the sky -

that we look upon,

Should tumble and fall.

or the mountain,

Should crumble to the sea.

I won't cry, I won't cry.

No I-iiii won't shed a tear.

Just as long

As you stand

Stand by me.

And darlin', darlin'

Stand, by me.

Ohhhh stand by me.

Woahh stand now,

Stand by me.

Stand by me.

(Instrumental Portion)

Darlin', darlin'

Stand, by me.

Ohhh stand, by me.

Stand by me.

Stand by me.

Whenever you're in trouble,

Wont you stand, stand by me.

Stand by me.

Ohhh stand by me

Artist: Kansas

Song: Carry on Wayward Son

Album: LEFTOVERTURE

Carry on my wayward son

There'll be peace when you are done

Lay your weary head to rest

Don't you cry no more

Once I rose above the noise and confusion

Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion

I was soaring ever higher

But I flew too high

Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man

Though my mind could think I still was a madman

I hear the voices when I'm dreaming

I can hear them say

Carry on my wayward son

There'll be peace when you are done

Lay your weary head to rest

Don't you cry no more

Masquerading as a man with a reason

My charade is the event of the season

And if I claim to be a wise man

It surely means that I don't know

On a stormy sea of moving emotion

Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean

I set a course for winds of fortune

But I hear the voices say

Carry on my wayward son

There'll be peace when you are done

Lay your weary head to rest

Don't you cry no more

Artist: Whie Lion

Song: When the Children Cry

Album: White Lion (I think)

Little child

Dry your crying eyes

How can I explain

The fear you feel inside

cause you were born

Into this evil world

Where man is killing man

and no one knows just why

What have we become

Just look what we have done

All that we destroyed

You must build again

When the children cry

Let them know we tried

cause when the children sings

The new world begins

Little child

You must show the way

To a better day

For all the young

cause you were born

For the world to see

That we all can live

With love and peace

No more presidents

And all the wars will end

One united world under god

When the children cry

Let them know we tried

cause when the children sings

The new world begins

(Instrutmental)

What have we become

Just look what we have done

All that we destroyed

You must build again

No more presidents

And all the wars will end

One united world under god

When the children cry

Let them know we tried

cause when the children fight

Then we know it aint right

When the children break

Let them know were awake

cause when the children sings

The new world begins

Mariah Carey "can't take that away"

They can say anything they want to say

Try to bring me down

But I will not allow

Anyone to succeed

Hanging clouds over me

And they can try hard to make me feel

That I don't matter at all

But I refuse to falter

In what I believe

Or lose faith in my dreams

CHORUS:

'Cause there's a light in me

That shines brightly

They can try

But they can't take that away from me

From me

oh no, no ,no, no, no, no, no, no, no

They.......Oh

They, they can do anything they want to you

lf you let them in

But they won't ever win

If you cling to your pride

And just push them aside

See

I, i have learned there's an inner peace I own

Something in my soul

That they cannot possess

So I won't be afraid

And darkness will fade

'Cause there's a light in me

That shines brightly

They can try

But they can't take that away from me

No oh...

They can't take this

Precious love

I'll always have inside me

Certainly the Lord will guide me

Where I need to go

oh....

They can say anything they want to say

Try to bring me down

But I won't face the ground

I will rise steadily

Sailing out of their reach

Oh Lord

They do try hard to make me feel

That I don't matter at all

But I refuse to falter

In what I believe

Or lose faith in my dreams

'Cause there's a light in me that shines brightly

hey... hey...

They can try

But they can't take that away from me

"I'll be there" by Mariah (originally done by the Jacksons)

You and I must make a pact

We must bring salvation back

Where there is love

I'll be there

I'll reach out my hand to you

I'll have faith in all you do

Just call my name

And I'll be there

I'll be there to comfort you

Build my world of dreams around you

I'm so glad I found you yeah

I'll be there with a love so strong

I'll be your strength

You know I'll keep holding on

Let me fill your heart with joy and laughter

Togetherness, well it's all I'm after

Just call my name and

I'll be there

I'll be there to protect you

With an unselfish love that respects you

Just call my name

And I'll be there

Chorus:

I'll be there to comfort you

Build my world of dreams around you

You know I'm so glad that I found you

I'll be there with a love so strong

I'll be your strength

You know I'll keep holding on

See, if you should ever find someone new

I know she better be good to you

'Cause if she doesn't then

I'll be there

Don't you know baby yeah yeah

I'll be there

I'll be there

Just call my name and

I'll be there

I'll be there, baby

You know I'll be there

Just call my name and

I'll be there

Just look over your shoulder

Just call my name and

I'll be there

"never to far"

You're with me

Til the bitter end

What we had transcends

This experience

Too painful to

Talk about

So I'll hold it in

Til my heart can mend

And be brave enough to love again

A place in time

Still belongs to us

Stays preserved in my mind

In the memories there is solace

Never too far away

I won't let time erase

One bit of yesterday

Cause I have learned that

Nobody can take your place

Though we can never be

I'll keep you close to me

When I remember

Glittering lights

Incandescent eyes

Still preserved

In my mind

In the memories I'll find solace

Never too far away

I won't let time erase

One bit of yesterday

And I have learned that

Nobody can take your place

Though we can never be

I'll keep you close to me

And I'll remember

A place in time

Still belongs to us

Stays preserved in my mind

In the memories there is solace

Never too far away

I won't let time erase

One bit of yesterday

Cause I have learned that

Nobody can take your place

And though we can never be

I'll think of you and me

Always remember

Love

You're never too far

Sober-Kelly Clarkson

And I don't know

This could break my heart or save me

Nothing's real

Until you let go completely

So here I go with all my thoughts I've been saving

So here I go with all my fears weighing on me

Three months and I'm still sober

Picked all my weeds but kept the flowers

And I don't know

I could crash and burn but maybe

At the end of this road I might catch a glimpse of me

So i won't worry 'bout my timing

I wanna get it right

No comparing, second guessing

No not this time

Three months and I'm still breathing

Been a long road since those hands I left my tears in

But I know it's never really over, no

Wake up

Three months and I'm still standing here

Three months and I'm getting better yeah

Three months yeah, three months

Three months and I'm still breathing

Three months and I still remember it

Three months and I wake up

Three months and I'm still sober

Picked all my weeds but kept the flowers

irvine-kelly clarkson

Are you there?

Are you watching me?

As I lie here on this floor

They say you feel what I do

They say you're here every moment

Will you stay?

Stay 'till the darkness leaves

Stay here with me

I know you're busy, I know I'm just one

But you might be the only one who sees me

The only one to save me

Why is it so hard?

Why can't you just take me?

I don't have much to go

Before I fade completely

Can you feel how cold I am?

Do you cry as I do?

Are you lonely up there all by yourself?

Like I have felt all my life

The only one to save mine

How are you so strong?

What's it like to feel so free?

Your heart is really something

Your love, a complete mystery to me

Are you there watching me?

As I lie here on this floor

Do you cry, do you cry with me?

Cry with me tonight

Are you there?

Are you watching me?

Gnarls Barkley "The Odd Couple"

"Going On"

I’ve seen it with my own eyes

How we’re gettin’ otherwise

Without the luxury of leavin’

The touch and feeling of free is

Untangible technically

Something you’ve got to believe in

Connect the cause and effect

One foot in front of the next

This is the start of a journey.

And my mind is already gone

And though there are other unknowns

Somehow this doesn’t concern me.

And you can stand right there if you want

But I’m going on

And I’m prepared to go it alone

I’m going on

To a place in the sun that’s nice and warm

I’m going on

And I’m sure they’ll have a place for you too oohoohoo

Anyone that needs what they want, and doesn’t want what they need

I want nothing to do with

And to do what I want

And to do what I please

Is first of my to-do list

But every once in a while I think about her smile

One of the few things I do miss

But baby I‘ve to go

Baby I’ve got to know

Baby I’ve got to prove it

And I’ll see you when you get there

But I’m going on

And I’m prepared to go it alone

I’m going on

May my love lift you up to the place you belong

I’m going on

And I promise I’ll be waiting for you oohoohoo

"A Little Better"

Now I can sing you the storyline

And if you like my story fine

But ain't none of the glory mine

See my life was a lonely one

And I was still momma's only son

With no idea what I'm gon' become

And I didn't have long to know

That you don't have to be grown to go

I could have died so long befo'

Then I finally saw the sign

And I made it on down the line

One step at a time

I feel better!

I can smile at it now, I feel better

Ohhhh, better!

And even a little is still better

Oh, have mercy on me

Ohhh it's probably plain to see

That I got a whole lot of pain in me

And it will always remain in me

So cold, it's a cryin shame

Yet here I am, tryin again

Cause I refuse to die in vain

The circumstances put soul in me

And there ain't no holdin me

I've got a heart made of gold in me

Hah, can you believe this is where I've been?

And when adversity comes again

I'll deal with it then

I feel better!

I can laugh at it now, I feel better, heh heh

Ohhhh, better!

And even a little is still better

Oh, have mercy on me-heeeeeeee

Ah-ahhh-hahhh-ah yeahhh

Mmmmmmmmmm, ohhhhhhh-oh-ohhhh!

I said everything's fine, you can take your time

What would be on your mind, if you knew you was dyin

I would wanna just feel this ah-one more time

I said everything's fine, take yo' time

What would be on your mind, if you knew you was dyin

I would wanna just feel this ah-one more time

I wanna thank you morning sun

I wanna thank you lowly dirt

Now I know I'm not the only one

I, I wanna thank you friendly ghost

When all the calls were close

It seems like you cared the most

I, I wanna thank you Mom and Dad

For hurtin me so bad

But you're the best I ever had

I, I wanna thank you...

Pocketful of Sunshine

Natasha Bedingfield

I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine.

I got a love, and I know that it's all mine.

Oh.

Do what you want, but you're never gonna break me.

Sticks and stones are never gonna shake me.

No.

Take me away: A secret place.

A sweet escape: Take me away.

Take me away to better days.

Take me away: A higher place.

I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine.

I got a love, and I know that it's all mine.

Do anything you can to control me.

Oh, no.

Take me away: A secret place.

A sweet escape: Take me away.

Take me away to better days.

Take me away: A higher place.

There's a place that I go,

But nobody knows.

Where the rivers flow,

And I call it home.

And there's no more lies.

In the darkness, there's light.

And nobody cries.

There's only butterflies.

Take me away: A secret place.

A sweet escape: Take me away.

Take me away to better days.

Take me away: A higher place.

The sun is on my side.

Take me for a ride.

I smile up to the sky.

I know I'll be all right.

The sun is on my side.

Take me for a ride.

I smile up to the sky.

I know I'll be all right.

I found this song the other day and alot of people dont seem to know about him myself included.

This song has religous references, but its so true at least i think so.

its called the eleventh commandment

by collin raye

She hears his heavy breathing in the dark

His footsteps coming closer down the hall

She's so ashamed, she's daddy's secret love

She wants to cry, she wants to die, but he can't get enough

The bruises on his face will go away

Mom keeps him home from school till they fade

She's sorry he was born and tells him so

He takes it in, he hangs his chin, he ducks another blow

Did God overlook it

What ought have been written

The eleventh commandment

Honor thy children

He cries for hours, cries and never stops

He shakes so hard his little cradle rocks

He'll never have the chance to be brand new

He'll never walk, he'll never talk, he's addicted too

Did God overlook it

What ought have been written

The eleventh commandment

Honor thy children

Thou shalt not kill

Thou shalt not steal

Thou shalt not take the Lord's name in vain

Thou shalt not cause thy children pain

God does not overlook it

What ought have been written

The eleventh commandment

Honor thy children

Honor thy children

i found sarah mclaughins angels soothing when in a dark mood

Spend all your time waiting

for that second chance,

for a break that would make it okay.

There's always some reason

to feel not good enough,

and it's hard, at the end of the day.

I need some distraction,

Oh, beautiful release.

Memories seep from my veins.

Let me be empty,

Oh, and weightless,

And maybe I'll find some peace tonight.

CHORUS:

In the arms of the angel,

fly away from here,

from this dark, cold hotel room,

and the endlessness that you feel.

You are pulled from the wreckage,

Of your silent reverie.

You're in the arms of the angel,

may you find some comfort here.

So tired of the straight line,

and everywhere you turn,

there's vultures and thieves at your back.

The storm keeps on twisting.

Keep on building the lies

that you make up for all that you lack.

Don't make no difference,

escape one last time.

It's easier to believe in this sweet madness,

Oh, this glorious sadness,

that brings me to my knees.

REPEAT CHORUS

You're in the arms of the angel,

may you find some comfort here.

I have quite a few.... Sort of a song for every kind of bad mood.

IN THE SUN

Joseph Arthur

I picture you in the sun wondering what went wrong

And falling down on your knees asking for sympathy

And being caught in between all you wish for and all you seen

And trying to find anything you can feel that you can believe in

May God's love be with you

Always

May God's love be with you

I know i would apologize if i could see your eyes

'Cause when you showed me myself i became someone else

But i was caught in between all you wish for and all you need

I picture you fast asleep

A nightmare comes

You can't keep awake

May God's love be with you

Always

May God's love be with you

'Cause if I find

If I find my own way

How much will I find

If I find

If I find my own way

How much will I find

You

I don't know anymore

What it's for

I'm not even sure

If there is anyone who is in the sun

Will you help me to understand

'Cause I been caught in between all I wish for and all I need

Maybe you're not even sure what it's for

Any more than me

May God's love be with you

Always

May God's love be with you

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

PAIN

Three Days Grace

Pain, without love

Pain, I can't get enough

Pain, I like it rough

'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all

You're sick of feeling numb

You're not the only one

I'll take you by the hand

And I'll show you a world that you can understand

This life is filled with hurt

When happiness doesn't work

Trust me and take my hand

When the lights go out you will understand

Pain, without love

Pain, I can't get enough

Pain, I like it rough

'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all

Pain, without love

Pain, I can't get enough

Pain, I like it rough

'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all

Anger and agony

Are better than misery

Trust me I've got a plan

When the lights go off you will understand

Pain, without love

Pain, I can't get enough

Pain, I like it rough

'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all

Pain, without love

Pain, I can't get enough

Pain, I like it rough

'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing

Rather feel pain

I know (I know I know I know I know)

That you're wounded

You know (You know you know you know you know)

That I'm here to save you

You know (You know you know you know you know)

I'm always here for you

I know (I know I know I know I know)

That you'll thank me later

Pain, without love

Pain, can't get enough

Pain, I like it rough

'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all

Pain, without love

Pain, I can't get enough

Pain, I like it rough

'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all

Pain, without love

Pain, I can't get enough

Pain, I like it rough

'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all

Rather feel pain than nothing at all

Rather feel pain

HELLO

Evanescence

Playground school bell rings again

Rain clouds come to play again

Has no one told you she's not breathing?

Hello I'm your mind giving you someone to talk to

Hello

If I smile and don't believe

Soon I know I'll wake from this dream

Don't try to fix me, I'm not broken

Hello I am the lie living for you so you can hide

Don't cry

Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping

Hello I'm still here

All that's left of yesterday

---------------------------------------------------------------------

HAUNTED

Evanescence

Long lost words whisper slowly to me

Still can't find what keeps me here

When all this time I've been so hollow inside

I know you're still there

Watching me, wanting me

I can feel you pull me down

Fearing you, loving you

I won't let you pull me down

Hunting you, I can smell you - alive

Your heart pounding in my head

Watching me, wanting me

I can feel you pull me down

Saving me, raping me, watching me

Watching me, wanting me

I can feel you pull me down

Fearing you... loving you

I won't let you pull me down

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

To what do I owe this gift my friend?

My life, my love, my soul?

I've been dancing with the devil way too long

And it's making me grow old

Making me grow old

Let's leave...oh let's get away

Run in fields of time

Where there's no reason to hide

What are you going to do with your gift dear child?

Give life, give love, give soul?

Divided is the one who dances

For the soul is so exposed

So exposed

Let's leave...oh let's get away

Get lost in time

Where there's no reason to hide

Let's leave...oh let's get away

Run in fields of time

Where there's no reason to hide

There is no reason to hide

No reason to hide

BREATHE (2AM)

Anna Nalick

2 Am and she calls me cause I'm still awake

Can you help me unravel my latest mistake

I don't love him, winter just wasn't my season.

Yeah we walk through the doors so accusing their eyes

Like they have any right at all to criticize

Hypocrites you're all here for the very same reason.

Cause you can't jump the track

We're like cars on a cable and life's like an hourglass glued to the table,

No one can find the rewind button girl

So just cradle your head in your hands.

And breathe, just breathe, whoa breathe just breathe

May he turned 21 on the base of Fort Bliss

Just today he sat down to the flask in his fist

Ain't been sober since maybe October of last year

Here in town you can tell he's been down for while

But my God it's so beautiful when the boy smiles

Wanna hold him but maybe I'll just sing about it

Cause you can't jump the track

We're like cars on a cable

And life's like an hourglass glued to the table,

No one can find the rewind button boys so cradle your head in your hands

And breathe, just breathe, whoa breath just breathe

There's a light at each end of this tunnel you shout cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out

And these mistakes you've made

You'll just make them again if you'll only try turnin' around

2Am and I'm still awake writing this song

If i get it all down on paper it's no longer inside of me threaten' the life it belongs to.

And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd

Cause these words are my diary screamin' out aloud

And I know that you'll use them however you want to.

But you can't jump the track

We're like cars on a cable

And life's like an hourglass glued to the table,

No one can find the rewind button now

Sing it if you understand...yeah breath

Just breathe, ohho breathe

it has been a long while since i have visited this thread! The Offspring has a new song out that really struck a cord with me. check out the video on youtube also.

Kristy Are You Doing OK

There’s a moment in time

And it’s stuck in my mind

Way back, when we were just kids

Cause your eyes told the tale

Of an act of betrayal

I knew that somebody did

Oh, waves of time

Seem to wash away

The scenes of our crimes

But for you this never ends

Can you stay strong?

Can you go on?

Kristy are you doing okay?

A rose that won’t bloom

Winter’s kept you

Don’t waste your whole life trying

To get back what was taken away

Though the marks on your dress

Had been neatly repressed

I knew that something was wrong

And I should have spoke out

And I’m so sorry now

I didn’t know

Cause we were so young

Oh, clouds of time

Seem to rain on

Innocence left behind

And it never goes away

Crash and Burn by Savage Garden

When you feel all alone

And the world has turned its back on you

Give me a moment please to tame your wild wild heart

I know you feel like the walls are closing in on you

It's hard to find relief and people can be so cold

When darkness is upon your door and you feel like you can't take anymore

Let me be the one you call

If you jump I'll break your fall

Lift you up and fly away with you into the night

If you need to fall apart

I can mend a broken heart

If you need to crash then crash and burn

You're not alone

When you feel all alone

And a loyal friend is hard to find

You're caught in a one way street

With the monsters in your head

When hopes and dreams are far away and

You feel like you can't face the day

Let me be the one you call

If you jump I'll break your fall

Lift you up and fly away with you into the night

If you need to fall apart

I can mend a broken heart

If you need to crash then crash and burn

You're not alone

'Cause there has always been heartache and pain

And when it's over you'll breathe again

You'll breath again

When you feel all alone

And the world has turned its back on you

Give me a moment please

To tame your wild wild heart

Let me be the one you call

If you jump I'll break your fall

Lift you up and fly away with you into the night

If you need to fall apart

I can mend a broken heart

If you need to crash then crash and burn

You're not alone

Wasted by Carrie Underwood

Standing at the back door

She tried to make it fast

One tear hit the hard wood

It fell like broken glass

She said sometimes love slips away

And you just can't get it back

Let's face it

For one split second

She almost turned around

But that would be like pouring rain drops

Back into a cloud

So she took another step and said

I see the way out and I'm gonna' take it

I don't wanna' spend my life jaded

Waiting to wake up one day and find

That I've let all these years go by

Wasted

Another glass of whisky but it still don't kill the pain

So he stumbles to the sink and pours it down the drain

He says it's time to be a man and stop living for yesterday

Gotta face it.

Cause' I don't wanna' spend my life jaded

Waiting to wake up one day and find

That I've let all these years go by

Wasted

Oh I don't wanna' keep on wishing, missing

The still of the morning, the color of the night

I ain't spending no more time

Wasted

She kept drivin' along

Till the moon and the sun were floating side-by-side

He looked in the mirror and his eyes were clear

For the first time in a while

Hey, yeah,

Oh, I don't wanna' spend my life jaded

Waiting to wake up one day and find

That I've let all these years go by

Wasted

Oh I don't wanna' keep on wishing, missing

The still of the morning, the color of the night

I ain't spending no more time

Wasted

Oh, I don't wanna' spend my life jaded

Waiting to wake up one day and find

That I've let all these years go by

Wasted

Yeah, yeah

Oh I don't wanna' keep on wishing, missing

The still of the morning, the color of the night

I ain't spending no more time

Wasted

The Middle by Jimmy Eat World *** May T***

Hey,

Don't write yourself off yet.

It's only in your head you feel left out,

Or looked down on.

Just try your best,

Try everything you can.

And don't you worry what they tell themselves

When you're away.

[Chorus]

It just takes some time,

Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride.

Everything, everything will be just fine,

Everything, everything will be alright. (alright)

Hey,

You know they're all the same.

You know you're doing better on your own, (on your own)

So don't buy in.

Live right now.

Yeah, just be yourself.

It doesn't matter if it's good enough (good enough)

For someone else.

[Chorus x2]

Hey, don't write yourself off yet.

It's only in your head you feel left out, (feel left out)

Or looked down on.

Just do your best, (just do your best)

Do everything you can. (do everything you can)

And don't you worry what their bitter hearts (bitter hearts)

Are gonna say.

[Chorus x2]

Some People Change by Mongomery Gentry *** May T***

His old man was a rebel yeller:

Bad boy to the bone.

He'd say: "Can't trust that other fella,"

He'd judge 'em by the tone of their skin.

He was raised to think like his Dad:

Narrow mind full of hate.

On the road to no-where fast,

Till the Grace of God got in the way.

Then he saw the Light an' hit his knees an' cried an' said a prayer:

Rose up a brand new man; left the old one right there.

Here's to the strong; thanks to the brave.

Don't give up hope: some people change.

Against all odds, against the grain,

Love finds a way: some people change.

She was born with her mother's habit:

You could say: "It's in her blood."

She hates that she's gotta have it:

As she fills her glass up.

An she'd love to kill that bottle,

But all she can think about,

Is a, a better life, a second chance,

An' everyone she's letting down.

She throws that bottle down.

Here's to the strong; thanks to the brave.

Don't give up hope: some people change.

Against all odds, against the grain,

Love finds a way: some people change.

Thank God for those who make it:

Let them be the Light.

(Let them be the light)

(Some people change.)

Here's to the strong; thanks to the brave.

Don't give up hope: some people change.

Against all odds, against the grain,

Love finds a way: some people change.

Some people change.

(Some people change)

No Reins by Rascal Flatts

She left that loser in a dust cloud

Heart in his hand, chin on the ground

Cried her last tear for that clown

She can see a little clearer now

She said, "Oh, oh, I gotta go and find me"

Oh, oh she found the strength to break free

CHORUS

Like a painted wild mustang

Flyin' out across the open range

Finally gets to live her life that way

No fear, no fences, nobody - no reins

No Reins

All she's ever felt is held back

She says, "It's kinda nice to hear myself laugh"

She's gonna do a lot more of that

She's makin' plans and makin' tracks

She said, "Oh, oh I gotta go and find me"

Oh, oh she found the strength to break free

Repeat Chorus

Oh-oh she's learnin' how to let go

Oh-oh which ever way the wind blows

Oh-oh she's learnin' how to let go (learnin' how to let go)

Repeat Chorus

No reins

Life Ain't Always Beautiful by Gary Allan

Life ain't always beautiful

Sometimes it's just plain hard

Life can knock you down, it can break your heart

Life ain't always beautiful

You think you're on your way

And it's just a dead end road at the end of the day

But the struggle makes you stronger

And the changes make you wise

And happiness has it's own way of takin' it sweet time

[chorus]

No,life aint always beautiful

Tears will fall sometimes

Life aint always beautiful

But it's a beautiful ride

Life aint always beautiful

Some days I miss your smile

I get tired of walkin' all these lonely miles

And I wish for just one minute

I could see your pretty face

Guess I can dream, but life dont work that way

But the struggles makes me stronger

And the changes make me wise

And happiness has it's own way of takin' its sweet time

No, life aint always beautiful

But I know I'll be fine

Hey, life aint always beautiful

But its a beautiful ride

What a beautiful ride

Lessons Learned by Carrie Underwood

There's some things that I regret,

Some words I wish had gone unsaid,

Some starts,

That had some better endings,

Been some bad times I've been through,

Damage I cannot undo.

Some things,

I wish I could do all all over again,

But it don't really matter,

When life gets that much harder,

It makes you that much stronger,

Oh, some pages turned,

Some bridges burned,

But there were,

Lessons learned.

And every tear that had to fall from my eyes,

And everyday I wondered how I'd get through the night,

Every change, life has thrown me,

I'm thankful, for every break in my heart,

I'm grateful, for every scar,

Some pages turned,

Some bridges burned,

But there were lessons learned.

There's mistakes that I have made,

Some chances I just threw away,

Some roads,

I never should have taken,

Been some signs I didn't see,

Hearts that I hurt needlessly,

Some wounds,

That I wish I could have one more chance to mend,

But it don't make no difference,

The past can't be rewritten,

You get the life you're given,

Oh, some pages turned,

Some bridges burned,

But there were,

Lessons learned.

And every tear that had to fall from my eyes,

And everyday I wondered how I'd get through the night,

Every change, life has thrown me,

I'm thankful, for every break in my heart,

I'm grateful, for every scar,

Some pages turned,

Some bridges burned,

But there were lessons learned.

And all the things that break you,

Are the things that make you strong!

You can't change the past,

Cause it's gone.

And you just gotta move on,

Because it's all

Lessons learned.

And every tear that had to fall from my eyes,

From everyday I wondered how I'd get through the night,

From every change, life has thrown me.

I'm thankful, for every break in my heart,

I'm grateful, for every scar,

Some pages turned,

Some bridges burned,

But there were lessons learned,

Oh, some pages turned,

Some bridges burned,

But there were lessons learned,

Lessons learned.

Lessons learned.

I'm A Survivor by Reba McEntire

I was born 3 months too early

The doctor gave me 30 days

But I must have had my mama's will

And God's amazing grace

I guess I'll keep on livin

Even if this love's to die for

Cuz your bags are packed

And I ain't cryin

Your walkin out and I'm not tryin

To change your mind

Cuz I was born to be

The baby girl without a chance

A victim of circumstance

The one who oughta give up

But she's just too hard headed

A single mom

Who works 2 jobs

Who loves her kids and never stops

With gentle hands

And the heart of a fighter

I'm a survivor

I don't believe in self pity

It only brings you down

May be the queen of broken hearts

But I don't hide behind the crown

When the deck is stacked against me

I just play a different game

My roots are planted in the past

And though my life is changing fast

Who I am is who I wanna be

The baby girl without a chance

A victim of circumstance

The one who oughta give up

But she's just too hard headed

A single mom

Who works 2 jobs

Who loves her kids and never stops

With gentle hands

And the heart of a fighter

I'm a survivor

Oh a single mom

Who works 2 jobs

Who loves her kids and never stops

With gentle hands

And the heart of a fighter

I'm a survivor

But I must have had my mama's will

And God's amazing grace

(I'm a survivor)

Holes In the Floor of Heaven by Steve Wariner

* Helped me after losing my Mom*

One day shy of eight years old

Grandma passed away

I was a broken hearted little boy,

blowing out that birthday cake

How I cried when the sky let go

with a cold and lonesome rain

Momma smiled said don't be sad child

Grandma's watchin you today

'Cause there's holes in the floor of Heaven

and her tears are pourin' down

that's how you know she's watchin'

wishin' she could be here now

And sometimes if you're lonely

just remember she can see

there's holes in the floor of Heaven

and she's watchin' over you and me

Seasons come and seasons go

nothin' stays the same

I grew up fell in love

met a girl who took my name

Year by year we made a life

in this sleepy little town

I thought we'd grow old together

Lord I sure do miss her now

But there's holes in the floor of Heaven

and her tears are pourin' down

that's how you know she's watchin'

wishin' she could be here now

and sometimes when I'm lonely

I remember she can see

there's holes in the floor of Heaven

and she's watchin' over you and me

Well my little girl is 23

I walk her down the aisle

it's a shame her mom can't be here now

to see her lovely smile

They throw the rice

I catch her eye

as the rain starts comin' down

she takes my hand says daddy don't be sad 'cause

I know momma's watchin' now

And there's holes in the floor of Heaven

and her tears are pourin down

that's how you know she's watchin'

wishin' she could be here now

and sometimes when I'm lonely

I remember she can see

there's holes in the floor of Heaven

and she's watchin' over you and me

Watchin' over you and me

Watchin' over you and me

Watchin' over you and me

Face Down by Red Jumpsuit Apparatus *** May Trigger***

Hey girl you know you drive me crazy

one look puts the rhythm in my hand.

Still I'll never understand why you hang around

I see what's going down.

Cover up with make up in the mirror

tell yourself it's never gonna happen again

you cry alone and then he swears he loves you.

Do you feel like a man

when you push her around?

Do you feel better now as she falls to the ground?

Well I'll tell you my friend, one day this world's going to end

as your lies crumble down, a new life she has found.

A pebble in the water makes a ripple effect

every action in this world will bear a consequence

If you wade around forever you will surely drown

I see what's going down.

I see the way you go and say your right again,

say your right again

heed my lecture

Do you feel like a man

when you push her around?

Do you feel better now as she falls to the ground?

Well I'll tell you my friend, one day this world's going to end

as your lies crumble down a new life she has.

Face down in the dirt she says, this doesn't hurt she says I finally had enough..

Face down in the dirt she says, this doesn't hurt she says I finally had enough..

One day she will tell you that she has had enough

its coming round again.

Do you feel like a man, when you push her around?

Do you feel better now as she falls to the ground?

Well I'll tell you my friend, one day this world's going to end

as your lies crumble down, a new life she has.

Do you feel like a man, when you push her around?

Do you feel better now as she falls to the ground?

Well I'll tell you my friend, one day this world's going to end

as your lies crumble down, a new life she has.

Face down in the dirt she says, this doesn't hurt she says I finally had enough..

I love "On Your Side" by Graham Coulton

"On Your Side"

I'm not asking for forever and I don't need much of your time

I know we can't be together but you should know I'm on your side

It's where I'll always be

It's alright for you to be scared

I'll drive all night

I'll go anywhere

If someday our stars don't align

We'll go our own ways

You should know I'm always on your side

Could I have treated you better

Something else I could have tried

I don't have to be the one you dream about but you should know I'm on your side

It's where I've always been

I don't know where you are but I know where you've been

You're just a small town girl you didn't care about nothing

I don't know where to start

but I hope that it ends up with you being happy wherever you are forever

I'm not asking for forever and I don't need much of your time

It's alright for you to be scared

I'll drive all night

I'll go anywhere

If someday our stars don't align

We'll go our own ways

You should know it's always

It's alright for you to be scared

I'll stay up all night

I won't go anywhere

If someday our stars don't align

We'll go our own ways

You should know I'm always on your side

You should know I'm always on your side

I really like this song. I think a lot of us can relate to the lyrics.

It's by the Wreckers

Stand Still, Look Pretty

I want to paint my face

And pretend that I am someone else

Sometimes I get so fed up

I don't even want to look at myself

But people have problems that are worse than mine

I don't want you to think I'm complaining all the time

And I hate the way you look at me I have to say

I wish I could start over

[Chorus]

I am slowly falling apart

I wish you'd take a walk in my shoes for a start

You might think it's easy being me

You just stand still, look pretty

Sometimes I find myself shaking

In the middle of the night

And then it hits me and I can't

Even believe this is my life

But people have problems that are worse than mine

I don't want you to think I'm complaining all the time

And I wish that everyone would go and shut their mouths

I'm not strong enough to deal with it

Ask Me - Amy Grant

I see her as a little girl hiding in her room

She takes another bath and she sprays her momma's perfume

To try to wipe away the scent he left behind

But it haunts her mind.

You see she's his little rag, nothing more than just a waif

And he's mopping up his need, she is tired and afraid

Maybe she'll find a way through these awful years to disappear.

Ask me if I think there's a God up in the heaven

Where did He go in the middle of her shame?

Ask me if I think there's a God up in the heavens

I see no mercy and no one down here's naming names

Nobody's naming names.

Now she's looking in the mirror at a lovely woman face

No more frightened little girl, like she's gone without a trace

Still she leaves the light burning in the hall

It's hard to sleep at all.

Still she crawls up in her bed acting quiet as a mouse

Deep inside she's listening for a creaking in the house

But noone's left to harm her, she's finally safe and sound

There's a peace she's found.

Ask her how she knows there's a God up in the heaven

Where did He go in the middle of her shame?

Ask her how she knows there's a God up in the heavens

She said His mercy is bringing her life again.

Ask me how I know there's a God up in the heaven

(How do you know?)

Where did He go in the middle of her shame

(Where did He go?)

Ask me how I know there's a God up in the heavens

(How do you know?)

She said his mercy is bringing her life again

She's coming to life again.

He's in the middle of her pain

In the middle of her shame

Mercy brings life

He's in the middle

Mercy in the middle.

So ask me how I know

Ask me how I know, yeah

Ask me how I know there's a God up in the heaven

(How do you know?)

Ask me how I know there's a God up in the heavens

(How do you know?)

Yeah, ask me how I know

(How do you know?)

Ask me

Ask me

Ask me how I know

(How do you know?)

There's a God up in the heavens

Ask me how I know there's a God up in the heavens.
