Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You) - Kelly Clarkson

You didn't think that I'd come back
I'd come back swinging
You tried to break me, but you see

Eight Feet Tall - Gabriel Mann

They roll their eyes, cutting me down to size
Straight line I couldn't fake
They said I'd break

Africa - Toto

I know that I must do what's right
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti
I seek to cure what's deep inside, frightened of this thing that I've become

Katy Tiz - Whistle (While You Work It)

Brush brush, brush it off
I will never let this shit weigh me down, weigh me down
Don't cry, dry your eyes
Keep your chin up and leave it all behind, all behind

Jenny Owen Youngs -- Fuck Was I

[ichoosefight]

Fuck Was I Love grows in me like a tumor Parasite bent on devouring its host I'm developing my sense of humor Till I can laugh at my heart between your teeth Till I can laugh at my face beneath your feet Skillet on the stove It's such a temptation Maybe I'll be the lucky one that doesn't get burnt What the fuck was I thinking? Love plows through me like a dozer I've got more give than a bale of hay And there's always a big mess left over With the "What did you do?" And the "What did you say?" "What did you do?" and the "What did you say?" Skillet on the stove It's such a temptation Maybe I'll be the special one that doesn't get burnt What the fuck was I thinking? What the fuck was I thinking? What the fuck was I thinking? What the fuck was I thinking? Love tears me up like a demon Opens the wounds, then fills them with lead And I'm having some trouble just breathing If we weren't such good friends I think that I'd hate you If we weren't such good friends I'd wish you were dead Skillet on the stove It's such a temptation Maybe I'll be the lucky one that doesn't get burnt What the fuck was I thinking? What the fuck was I thinking? What the fuck was I thinking? Love is so embarrassing I'm this awkward and uncomfortable thing I'm running out of places to hide it I'm running out of places to hide it What the fuck was I thinking? (You know that I've got what you want) What the fuck was I thinking? (You know that I've got what you want) What the fuck was I thinking? (You know that I've got what you want) What the fuck was I thinking? (You know that I've got what you want)

Mumford and Sons -- Little Lion Man

[ichoosefight]

Little Lion Man Weep for yourself, my man, You'll never be what is in your heart Weep, little lion man, You're not as brave as you were at the start Rate yourself and rake yourself Take all the courage you have left And waste it on fixing all the problems that you made in your own head But it was not your fault but mine And it was your heart on the line I really fucked it up this time Didn't I, my dear? Didn't I, my... Tremble for yourself, my man, You know that you have seen this all before Tremble, little lion man, You'll never settle any of your scores Your grace is wasted in your face, Your boldness stands alone among the wreck Now learn from your mother or else spend your days biting your own neck But it was not your fault but mine And it was your heart on the line I really fucked it up this time Didn't I, my dear? But it was not your fault but mine And it was your heart on the line I really fucked it up this time Didn't I, my dear? Didn't I, my dear? But it was not your fault but mine And it was your heart on the line I really fucked it up this time Didn't I, my dear? But it was not your fault but mine And it was your heart on the line I really fucked it up this time Didn't I, my dear? Didn't I, my dear?

The Distillers -- City of Angels

[ichoosefight]

City of Angels It's going down tonight in this town 'Cause they stare and growl They all stare and growl I take a scar every time I cry 'Cause it ain't my style, no it ain't my style Going down to the gravel head to the barrel Take this life and end this struggle Los Angeles come scam me please Emptiness never sleeps at Clifton's 6 a.m. With your bag lady friend and your mind descending Stripped of the right to be a human in control It's warmer in hell so down we go They say this is the city The city of angels All I see is dead wings They say this is the city The city of angels All I see is dead wings It's a ghost town rabid underworld Dionysian night vitriolic twilight A mirage comes up it never ends Once you get born you're never the same Left behind erased from time Ain't no decency in being boxed up alive Look around ain't no R.I.P. signs here We don't rest in peace, we just disappear So here we are Los Angeles No angels singing in your valley of unease I watch the sun roll down the pacific Over hooker sunset strip They say this is the city The city of angels All I see is dead wings They say this is the city The city of angels All I see is dead wings There's a black moon tonight Shining down on the western neon lights There's a black moon tonight Shining down on the western neon lights They say this is the city The city of angels All I see is dead wings They say this is the city The city of angels All I see is dead wings They say this is the city The city of angels All I see is dead wings They say this is the city The city of angels All I see is dead wings

Christina Perri -- Sad Song

[ichoosefight]

Sad Song Today I'm gonna write a sad song Gonna make it really long So everyone can see That I'm very unhappy I wish I wasn't always wrong I wish it wasn't always alone The finger that you're pointing Has knocked me on my knees And all you need to know is I'm so sorry It's not like me It's maturity that I'm lacking So don't, don't let me go Just let me know that growing up goes slow. I wonder what my mom and dad would say If I told them that I cry each day It's hard enough to live so far away I wish I wasn't always cold I wish I wasn't always alone When the party is over how will I get home? And all you need to know is I'm so sorry It's not like me It's maturity that I'm lacking So don't, don't let me go Just let me know that growing up goes slow. If all the rules are meant to bend And you swore you were my friend Now I have to start all over again 'Cause no one's going to take your place And I'm scared I'll never save All the pieces of the love we made. And I'm so sorry, it's not like me It's maturity that I'm lacking So don't, don't let me go Just let me know that I can slip and fall And you won't let me go just to let me know That growing up goes slow. And I'm so sorry, it's not like me It's maturity that I'm lacking So don't, don't let me go Just let me know that growing up goes slow

Snow Patrol -- Chocolate

[ichoosefight]

Chocolate This could be the very minute I'm aware I'm alive All these places feel like home With a name I'd never chosen I can make my first steps As a child of 25 This is the straw, final straw in the Roof of my mouth as I lie to you Just because I'm sorry doesn't mean I didn't enjoy it at the time You're the only thing that I love It scares me more every day On my knees I think clearer Goodness knows I saw it coming Or at least I'll claim I did But in truth I'm lost for words What have I done it's too late for that What have I become truth is nothing yet A simple mistake starts the hardest time I promise I'll do anything you ask...this time

Florence + The Machine -- Blinding

[ichoosefight]

Blinding Seems that I have been held, in some dreaming state A tourist in the waking world, never quite awake No kiss, no gentle word could wake me from this slumber Until I realize that it was you who held me under Felt it in my fists, in my feet, in the hollows of my eyelids Shaking through my skull, through my spine and down through my ribs No more dreaming of the dead as if death itself was undone No more calling like a crow for a boy, for a body in the garden No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love No more dreaming like a girl so in love with the wrong world And I could hear the thunder and see the lightning crack All around the world was waking, I never could go back Cause all the walls of dreaming, they were torn wide open And finally it seemed that the spell was broken And all my bones began to shake, my eyes flew open And all my bones began to shake, my eyes flew open No more dreaming of the dead as if death itself was undone No more calling like a crow for a boy, for a body in the garden No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love No more dreaming like a girl so in love with the wrong world Snow White's stitching up your circuit-boards Synapse slipping through the hidden door Snow White's stitching up your circuit-board No more dreaming of the dead as if death itself was undone No more calling like a crow for a boy, for a body in the garden No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love No more dreaming like a girl so in love with the wrong world Snow White's stitching up your circuit-boards Synapse slipping through the hidden door Snow White's stitching up your circuit-board Synapse slipping through the hidden door

Florence + The Machine -- Bird Song

[ichoosefight]

Bird Song Well, I didn't tell anyone But a bird flew by, Saw what I'd done. He set up a nest outside And he sang about what I'd become. He sang so loud, sang so clear. I was afraid all the neighbors would hear, So I invited him in just to reason with him. I promised I wouldn't do it again. But he sang louder and Louder inside the house And now I couldn't get him out. I trapped him under a cardboard box Stood on it to make him stop. Picked up the bird and battled with him I said, "That's the last song you'll ever sing." Held him down, broke his neck, Taught him a lesson he wouldn't forget. But in my dreams began to creep that old familiar, "Tweet, tweet, tweet." I opened my mouth to scream and shout. I waved my arms and flapped about, But i couldn't scream and I couldn't shout, Couldn't scream and I couldn't shout! I opened my mouth to scream and shout. I waved my arms and flapped about, But i couldn't scream and I couldn't shout, Couldn't scream and I couldn't shout. The song was coming from my mouth. From my mouth... (x15)

The Used -- The Taste of Ink

[ichoosefight]

The Taste of Ink Is it worth it, can you even hear me? Standing with your spotlight on me Not enough to feed the hungry I'm tired and I've felt it for awhile now In this sea of lonely The taste of ink is getting old It's four o'clock in the fucking morning Each day gets more and more like the last day Still I can see it coming While I'm standing in the river drowning This could be my chance to break out This could be my chance to say good-bye At last it's finally over Couldn't take this town much longer Being half-dead wasn't what I planned to be Now I'm ready to be free So here I am, it's in my hands And I'll savour every moment of this So here I am, alive at last And I'll savour every moment of this And won't you think I'm pretty When I'm standig top the bright lit city And I'll take your hand and pick you up And keep you there so you can see As long as you're alive and care I promise I will take you there We'll drink and dance the night away As long as you're alive Here I am I promise I will take you there

Lostprophets -- Rooftops

[ichoosefight]

Rooftops When our time is up When our lives are done Will we say we've had our fun? Will we make a mark this time? Will we always say we tried? Standing on the rooftops Everybody scream your heart out Standing on the rooftops Everybody scream your heart out Standing on the rooftops Everybody scream your heart out This is all we got now Everybody scream your heart out All the love I've met I have no regrets If it all ends now, I'm set Will we make a mark this time? Will we always say we tried? Standing on the rooftops Everybody scream your heart out Standing on the rooftops Everybody scream your heart out Standing on the rooftops Everybody scream your heart out This is all we got now Everybody scream your heart out Standing on the rooftops Wait until the bombs drop This is all we got now Scream until your heart stops Never gonna regret Watching every sunset We'll listen to your heartbeat All the love that we found Standing on the rooftops Wait until the bombs drop This is all we got now Scream until your heart stops Never gonna regret Watching every sunset We'll listen to your heartbeat All the love that we found Scream your heart out Scream your heart out Scream your heart out Scream your Standing on the rooftops Everybody scream your heart out Standing on the rooftops Everybody scream your heart out Standing on the rooftops Everybody scream your heart out This is all we got now Everybody scream your

Rihanna -- Russian Roulette

[ichoosefight]

Russian Roulette Take a breath Take it deep 'Calm yourself', he says to me If you play, you play for keeps Take the gun and count to three I'm sweating now Moving slow No time to think. My turn to go And you can see my heart beating You can see it through my chest Said I'm terrified but I'm not leaving I know that I must pass this test So, just pull the trigger Say a prayer to yourself He says 'close your eyes, sometimes it helps' And then I get a scary thought That he's here - means he's never lost And you can see my heart beating No, You can see it through my chest Said I'm terrified but I'm not leaving Know that I must pass this test So, just pull the trigger As my life flashes before my eyes I'm wondering will I ever see another sunrise? So many won't get the chance to say goodbye But it's too late to think of the value of my life And you can see my heart beating No, you can see it through my chest Said I'm terrified but I'm not leaving no Know that I must pass this test You can see my heart beating Oh, you can see it through my chest I'm terrified but I'm not leaving no Know that I must pass this test So, just pull the trigger

Charlotte Martin -- Redeemed

[ichoosefight]

Redeemed Every tree has got her root and every girl forbidden fruit As well as demons. And the path I chose to go, a different girl so long ago, Well I had my reasons. And she's in my head so loud and screaming "Should you be proud of what you came from"? "You've been crippled and you've walked and you've been shut up and you've talked so let's talk some more". Where is the hand for me to reach? Where is the moral I'll never teach myself? In all the black, in all the grief, I am redeemed". And it's ripping at my heart cause I've been dodging all these darts And on a slow train And I wear it till it tatters and it shatters on the floor In instant replay Well we're all rotten and we're pure and we're just looking for a cure that feels like spring snow And what we have is what we are and where we've been got us this far so let me go". Where is the hand for me to reach? Where is the moral I'll never teach myself? In all the black, in all the grief, I am redeemed". Where is the hand for me to reach? Where is the moral I'll never teach myself? In all the black, in all the grief, through all the pain And unbelief- these are the words that they all scream.

Weezer -- Troublemaker

[ichoosefight]

Troublemaker Put me in a special school cuz I am such a fool And I don't need a single book to teach me how to read Who needs stupid books? They are for petty crooks And I will learn by studying the lessons in my dreams So turn off the TV cuz that's what others see And movies are as bad as eating chocolate ice-cream They only sicken me, don't let me play football I'll sack the quarterback and jack the brother of the ball I'm a troublemaker, never been a faker Doin' things my own way and never giving up I'm a troublemaker, not a double-taker I don't have the patience to keep it on the up I picked up a guitar. What does this signify? I'm gonna play some heavy metal riffs and you will die. You wanted arts and crafts. How's this for arts and crafts? Wuh- nuh- nuh- nuh- nuh- nuh- nuh- nuh- nuh- that's right! I'm growing out my hair. I'm moving out to Cherokee. I'm gonna be a rock star and you are gonna bear with me Cuz I can't work a job like any other slob Punchin' in and punchin' out and suckin' up to Bob Marryin' a beeyotch, havin' seven keeyods Givin' up and growin' old and hopin' there's a God. I'm a troublemaker, never been a faker Doin' things my own way and never giving up I'm a troublemaker, not a double-taker I don't have the patience to keep it on the up I'm gonna be a star and people will crane necks To get a glimpse of me and see if I am having sex And studying my moves, they try to understand Why I am so unlike the singers in the other bands. I'm such a mystery as anyone can see There isn't anybody else exactly quite like me And when it's party time, like 1999 I'll party by myself because I'm such a special guy. I'm a troublemaker, never been a faker Doin' things my own way and never giving up I'm a troublemaker, not a double-taker I don't have the patience to keep it on the up

Florence + The Machine -- Falling

[ichoosefight]

Falling I've fallen out of favor And I've fallen from grace Fallen out of trees And I've fallen on my face Fallen out of taxis Out of windows too Fell in your opinion When I fell in love with you Sometimes I wish for falling Wish for the release Wish for falling through the air To give me some relief Because falling's not the problem When I'm falling I'm at peace It's only when I hit the ground It causes all the grief This is a song for a scribbled out name And my love keeps writing again and again This is a song for a scribbled out name And my love keeps writing again and again And again [15x] I'll dance myself up Drunk myself down Find people to love Left people to drown I'm not scared to jump I'm not scared to fall If there was nowhere to land I wouldn't be scared at all At all At all Fall Fall Sometimes I wish for falling Wish for the release Wish for falling through the air To give me some relief Because falling's not the problem When I'm falling I'm at peace It's only when I hit the ground It causes all the grief

The Dresden Dolls -- Gravity

[ichoosefight]

Gravity Gravity plays favorites I know it cause I saw Honest to god officer it's awful Down at work I'm getting too familiar with the floor Trading in my talents by the mouthful Hate to break it to you but its out of my control Forces go to work while we are sleeping If I could attack with a more sensible approach Obviously thats what I'd be doing Now Necks are cracking sideways Hit me from the back side I am on the white side You are on the black side Cut a piece thats bite size Shoot me from my good side If you got a straight line This would be a good time Gravity works slowly if you notice it at all Some of us are getting mighty lucky If you had to live with this you'd rather lie than fall You think I can't fly well you just watch me Now Necks are cracking sideways Hit me from the back side I am on the thin side You are on the fat side Cut a piece thats bite size Shoot me from my bad side If you got a straight line This would be a good time The sky is always falling down on me So officer forgive me please!
