Josh Turner - Everything is Fine


Because all it takes is a goal, the will to reach for it and a strong, beautiful woman beside you to help you get there.

My Life


And I'm grindin 'till I'm tired
Cause they said you ain't grindin' 'till your tired
So I'm grindin' with my eyes wide
Lookin to find
A way through the day
A life for the night
Dear Lord you done took so many of my people I'm just wonderin' why you haven't taken my life (my life)
Like what the hell am I doin' right?

Take me away from the hood, like a state penitentiary
Take me away from the hood, in the casket or a Bentley
Take me away, like I overdosed from cocaine
Or take me away, like a bullet from Kurt Cobaine's suicide
I'm from a windy city, like "Do or Die"
From a block close to where Biggie was crucified
That was Brooklyn's Jesus shot for no fucking reason
And you wonder why Kanye wears Jesus pieces?
'Cause that's Jesus people and Game he's the equal
Hated on so much, "Passion of Christ" need a sequel
Yeah, like Roc-a-fella needed Sigel
Like I needed my father, but he needed a needle
I need some meditation, so I can leave my people
They askin' "Why?" Why did John Lennon leave The Beatles?
And why every hood nigga feed off evil?
Answer my question 'fore this bullet leave this Desert Eagle

And I'm grindin 'till I'm tired
Cause they said you ain't grindin' 'till your tired
So I'm grindin' with my eyes wide
Lookin to find
A way through the day
A life for the night
Dear Lord you done took so many of my people I'm just wonderin' why you haven't taken my life (my life)
Like what the hell am I doin' right?

Christina Aguilera – Bound To You Lyrics

Sweet love, sweet love
Trapped in your love
I’ve opened up, unsure I can trust
My heart and I were buried in dust
Free me, free us

You’re all I need when I’m holding you tight
If you walk away I will suffer tonight

I found a man I can trust
And boy, I believe in us
I am terrified to love for the first time
Can you see that I’m bound in chains
I finally found my way
I am bound to you
I am bound to you

So much, so young
I’ve faced on my own
Walls I built up became my home
I’m strong and I’m sure there’s a fire in us
Sweet love, so pure

I catch my breath with just one beating heart
And I brace myself, please don’t tear this apart

I found a man I can trust
And boy, I believe in us
I am terrified to love for the first time
Can’t you see that I’m bound in chains
I finally found my way
I am bound to you
I am bound to

Suddenly the moment’s here
I embrace my fears
All that I have been carrying all these years
Do I risk it all
Come this far just to fall, fall

Oh, I can trust
And boy, I believe in us
I am terrified to love for the first time
Can you see that I’m bound in chains
And finally found my way
I am bound to you

I am,
Ooh, I am
I’m bound to you

This has actually been my theme song of the month xD;

Nightwish - Storytime

'twas the night before
When all through the world
No words, no dreams, then one day

A writer by a fire
Imagined all gaia
Took a journey into a child-man's heart

A painter on the shore
Imagined all the world
Within a snowflake on his palm

Unframed by poetry
A canvas of awe
Planet earth falling back into the stars

I am the voice of never-never-land
The innocence, the dreams of every man
I am the empty crib of peter pan
A silent kite against the blue blue sky
Every chimney, every moonlit sight
I am the story that will read you real
Every memory that you hold dear

I am the journey
I am the destination
I am the home
The tale that reads you

A way to taste the night
The elusive high
Follow the madness
Alice, you know once did

Imaginarium
A dream emporium
Caress the tales
And they will dream you real

A story teller's game
Lips that intoxicate
The core of all life is a
Limitless chest of tales

I am the voice of never-never-land
The innocence, the dreams of every man
I am the empty crib of peter pan
A silent kite against the blue blue sky
Every chimney, every moonlit sight
I am the story that will read you real
Every memory that you hold dear

I am the voice of never-never-land
The innocence, the dreams of every man
Searching heavens for another earth

Joining You
Alanis Morissette

dear dar(lin') your mom (my friend) left a message on my machine she was frantic
saying you were talking crazy that you wanted to do away with yourself
I guess she thought i'd be a perfect resort because we've had
this inexplicable connection since our youth and yes they're in shock
they are panicked you and your chronic them and their drama
you this embarrassment us in the middle of this delusion
if we were our bodies
if we were our futures
if we were our defenses i'd be joining you
if we were our culture
if we were our leaders
if we were our denials i'd be joining you
I remember vividly a day years ago we were camping you knew more than you thought you should know
you said "I don't want ever to be brainwashed" and you were mindboggling you were intense
you were uncomfortable in your own skin you were thirsty but mostly you were beautiful
if we were our nametags
if we were our rejections
if we were our outcomes i'd be joining you
if we were our indignities
if we were our successes
if we were our emotions i'd be joining you
you and I we're like 4 year olds we want to know why and how come about everything
we want to reveal ourselves at will and speak our minds and never talk small and be intuitive
and question mightily and find god my tortured beacon
we need to find like-minded companions
if we were their condemnations
if we were their projections
if we were our paranoias i'd be joining you
if we were our incomes
if we were our obsession
if we were our afflictions i'd be joining you
we need reflection we need a really good memory feel free to call me a little more often​

Overkill - Colin Hay (nee Men At Work)

I can't get to sleep
I think about the implications
Of diving in too deep
And possibly the complications

Especially at night
I worry over situations
I know I'll be alright
Perhaps it's just imagination

Day after day it reappears
Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away

Alone between the sheets
Only brings exasperation
It's time to walk the streets
Smell the desperation

At least there's pretty lights
And though there's little variation
It nullifies the night from overkill

Day after day it reappears
Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away
Come back another day

I can't get to sleep
I think about the implications
Of diving in too deep
And possibly the complications

Especially at night
I worry over situations
I know I'll be alright
It's just overkill

Day after day it reappears
Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away
Ghosts appear and fade away
Ghosts appear and fade away

I love Michael Buble

Try A Little Tenderness

http://youtu.be/68yM87fcktE

She may be weary
Women do get weary
Wearing the same shabby dress
And when she's weary
Try a little tenderness

She may be waiting
Just anticipating
Things she may never possess
And while she's without them
Try a little tenderness

It's not just sentimental
She has her grief
And her cares
But a word
Soft and gentle
Makes it easier to bear
So much easier to bear

You won't regret it
Women don't forget it
Love's their happiness
Their whole happiness
And it's all so easy
Just to try a little tenderness

You've gotta try
You've gotta hold 'er
You've got ta squeeze her
You have to try
You've gotta try
And always please her
You won't regret it
You won't regret it
Oh
Try a little tender-ness

Do What You Want


Do what you what you want, if you have a dream for better Do what you what you want till you don't want it anymore (remember who you really are

Do what you what you want, your world's closing in on you now (it isn't over) Stand and face the unknown (got to remember who you really are) Every heart in my hands like a pale reflection

Hello, hello remember me? I'm everything you can't control Somewhere beyond the pain there must be a way to believe we can break through

Do what you what you want, you don't have to lay your life down (it isn't over) Do what you what you want till you find what you're looking for (got to remember who you really are) But every hour slipping by screams that I have failed you

Hello, hello remember me? I'm everything you can't control Somewhere beyond the pain there must be a way to believe Hello, hello remember me? I'm everything you can't control Somewhere beyond the pain there must be a way to believe

There's still time Close your eyes Our love will guide you home Tear down the walls and free your soul Till we crash we're forever spiraling down, down, down, down

Hello, hello it's only me infecting everything you love Somewhere beyond the pain there must be a way to believe Hello, hello remember me? I'm everything you can't control
Somewhere beyond the pain there must be a way to learn forgiveness Hello, hello remember me
I'm everything you can't control Somewhere beyond the pain there must be a way to believe we can break through.

Remember who you really are
Do what you want, you want.

Amy Lee and Evanescence

Caroline-John Butler Trio

Got your eyes open, but you cannot see
Got what you want, do you got what you need?
The one day you see something you cannot bear
Telling you girl, yes you better beware
Her papa loved her so much you could see
Loved her too much if you know what I mean
So, she left home young,
Yeah she moved town to town
Looking for love that she never found

She played it hard and yes she played it rough
Made her feel safe and it made her feel tough
And rock by rock she built those walls everyday
Built herself a tower so far away
And from up high in that castle
She knew no one could get too close to touch
And if life and death were such a game
Why did they all make such a fuss?
And if birds could fly high over their troubles
She gonna find some of her own wings and fly
And no one could convince or pay her double
Or tell her she was too young to die

Oh Caroline, Caroline

December - Collective Soul

Why drink the water
from my hand?
Contagious as you think I am
Just tilt my sun towards
your domain.
Your cup runneth over again.

Don't scream about
Don't think aloud
Turn your head now baby
Just spit me out
Don't worry about
Don't speak of doubt
Turn your head now baby
Just spit me out

Why follow me to higher ground?
Lost as you swear I am.
Don't throw away your basic needs,
Ambiance and vanity.

December promise you gave unto me
December whispers of treachery
December clouds are now covering me
December songs no longer I sing

"Shameful Metaphors"
by Chevelle
Fear
It's all the same
Should I evolve
To tend to these sights
Said out loud then said again
If fate's so wrong
You'll start to feel lightheaded
By my admission, nothing grows
Just a longer list of unsorted laws

So why then
Has all my life made no sound
And are your eyes
Closing even now
My life made no sound
I fear your eyes closing

Revolting man
This sacred chain
Brought down to trial
No better man could fail the way
You needed all
Keep close the vein of empty
Thoughts

The finest river,
The ravens tend
All along insisting
We're worlds away

So why then
Has all my life made no sound
And are your eyes
Closing even now
My life made no sound
I fear your eyes closing

Behold the lost
Behold a Band-Aid

Behold the lost
Behold a Band-Aid

These shameful metaphors
Fought it through the teeth

Shameful metaphors
Biting at your heels

Shameful metaphors
Fought it cheek to cheek

So why then
Has all my life made no sound
(These shameful metaphors)
And are your eyes
Closing even now
My life made no sound
(These shameful metaphors)
I fear your eyes closing

You Raise Me Up - Josh Groban

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

There is no life - no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you come and I am filled with wonder,
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up... To more than I can be.

 

[Veroe]

free association-I wish I had a wooden heart

 

[scratchnsniff]

nothing compares
no worries or cares,
regrets and mistakes
they're memories made,
who would have know how
bittersweet this would taste...

I Want My Tears Back - Nightwish

I want my tears back

The treetops, the chimneys, the snowbed stories, winter grey
Wildflowers, those meadows of heaven, wind in the wheat

A railroad across waters, the scent of grandfatherly love
Blue bayous, Decembers, moon through a dragonfly's wings

Where is the wonder, where's the awe
Where's dear Alice knocking on the door
Where's the trapdoor that takes me there
Where the real is shattered by a Mad March Hare

Where is the wonder, where's the awe
Where are the sleepless nights I used to live for
Before the years take me
I wish to see
The lost in me

I want my tears back
I want my tears back now

A ballet on a grove, still growing young all alone
A rag doll, a best friend, the voice of Mary Costa

Where is the wonder, where's the awe
Where's dear Alice knocking on the door
Where's the trapdoor that takes me there
Where the real is shattered by a Mad March Hare

Where is the wonder, where's the awe
Where are the sleepless nights I used to live for
Before the years take me
I wish to see
The lost in me

Where is the wonder, where's the awe
Where are the sleepless nights I used to live for
Before the years take me
I wish to see
The lost in me

I want my tears back
I want my tears back now

Where is the wonder, where's the awe
Where are the sleepless nights I used to live for
Before the years take me
I wish to see
The lost in me

Where is the wonder, where's the awe
Where are the sleepless nights I used to live for
Before the years take me
I wish to see
The lost in me

I want my tears back
I want my tears back now

Sunny Came Home - Shawn Colvin

Sunny came home to her favorite room
Sunny sat down in the kitchen
She opened a book and a box of tools
Sunny came home with a mission


She says days go by I'm hypnotized
I'm walking on a wire
I close my eyes and fly out of my mind
Into the fire


Sunny came home with a list of names
She didn't believe in transcendence
It's time for a few small repairs she said
Sunny came home with a vengeance


She says days go by I don't know why
I'm walking on a wire
I close my eyes and fly out of my mind
Into the fire


Get the kids and bring a sweater
Dry is good and wind is better
Count the years, you always knew it
Strike a match, go on and do it


Days go by I'm hypnotized
I'm walking on a wire
I close my eyes and fly out of my mind
Into the fire
Light the sky and hold on tight
The world is burning down
She's out there on her own and she's alright
Sunny came home
Sunny came home...

Down By The Water - PJ Harvey

I lost my heart

under the bridge

to that little girl

so much to me

and now I moan

and now I holler

she'll never know

just what I found

that blue-eyed girl

(that blue-eyed girl)

she said no more

(she said no more)

that blue-eyed girl

(that blue-eyed girl)

became blue-eyed whore

(became blue-eyed whore)

down by the water

(down by the water)

I took her hand

(I took her hand)

just like my daughter

(just like my daughter)

see her again

(see her again)

Oh help me Jesus

come through the storm

I had to lose her

to do her harm

I heard her holler

(I heard her holler)

I heard her moan

(I heard her moan)

my lovely daughter

(my lovely daughter)

I took her home

(I took her home)

little fish, big fish, swimming in the water

come back here man, give me my daughter

 

[scratchnsniff]

I wanted you to know,
I love the way you laugh.
I want to hold you high
and steal your pain away.

Steelheart~Angel Eyes

Angel eyes
You have angel eyes
Such a smile that lights up my life oh
You're a dream come true
Now I'm holding you
And I'll never, never let you go
I will never let you go

First time I laid my eyes upon you
All my dreams were answered
First time I kissed your tender lips
My love to you I surrendered

I'll never let you go
You're always on my mind
You're the only one for me
You're all I need
And I'll never, never let you go

Angel eyes
My heart relies
On the love you give to me
You never let me down
You're always by my side
And I'll never, never let you go
I will never let you go

When my heart starts to crumble
And the tears start to fall
You hold me close with tender lovin'
And give me strength to carry on

I'll never let you go
You're always on my mind
You're the only one for me
You're all I need
And I'll never, never let you go

I'll never let you go
You're always on my mind
You're the only one for me
You're all I need
And I'll never, never let you go oh ooh
And I'll never, never let you go

I Need You - Scrawl (starting around 6:35)
(cover of a Eurythmics song)

I need you to pin me down
Just for one frosen moment
I need someone to pin me down
So I can live in torment
I need you to really feel
The twist of my back breaking
I need someone to listen
To the ecstacy I'm faking
I need you, you, you
I need you to catch each breath
That issues from my lips
I need someone to crack my skull
I need someone to kiss
So hold me now
And make pretend
That I won't ever fall
Oh hold me down
I'm gonna be your baby doll
I need you, you, you
Is it you I really need?
I do I do I do
I really do
I need you...
