    When I was a young boy,
    My father took me into the city
    To see a marching band.

    He said, "Son when you grow up,
    would you be the saviour of the broken,
    the beaten and the damned?"
    He said "Will you defeat them,
    your demons, and all the non-believers,
    the plans that they have made?"
    "Because one day I'll leave you,
    A phantom to lead you in the summer,
    To join The Black Parade."

    When I was a young boy,
    My father took me into the city
    To see a marching band.
    He said, "Son when you grow up,
    would you be the saviour of the broken,
    the beaten and the damned?"

    Sometimes I get the feeling she's watching over me.
    And other times I feel like I should go.
    And through it all, the rise and fall, the bodies in the streets.
    And when you're gone we want you all to know.

    We'll carry on,
    We'll carry on
    And though you're dead and gone believe me
    Your memory will carry on
    We'll carry on
    And in my heart I can't contain it
    The anthem won't explain it.

    A world that sends you reeling from decimated dreams
    Your misery and hate will kill us all.
    So paint it black and take it back
    Let's shout it loud and clear
    Defiant to the end we hear the call

    To carry on
    We'll carry on
    And though you're dead and gone believe me
    Your memory will carry on
    We'll carry on
    And though you're broken and defeated
    Your weary widow marches

    On and on we carry through the fears
    Ooh oh ohhhh
    Disappointed faces of your peers
    Ooh oh ohhhh
    Take a look at me cause I could not care at all

    Do or die, you'll never make me
    Because the world will never take my heart
    Go and try, you'll never break me
    We want it all, we wanna play this part
    I won't explain or say I'm sorry
    I'm unashamed, I'm gonna show my scar
    Give a cheer for all the broken
    Listen here, because it's who we are
    I'm just a man, I'm not a hero
    Just a boy, who had to sing this song
    I'm just a man, I'm not a hero
    I! don't! care!

    We'll carry on
    We'll carry on
    And though you're dead and gone believe me
    Your memory will carry on
    We'll carry on
    And though you're broken and defeated
    Your weary widow marches on

    Do or die, you'll never make me
    Because the world will never take my heart
    Go and try, you'll never break me
    We want it all, we wanna play this part (We'll carry on)

    Do or die, you'll never make me (We'll carry on)
    Because the world will never take my heart (We'll carry on)
    Go and try, you'll never break me (We'll carry)
    We want it all, we wanna play this part (We'll carry on)


    i also did it well on karaoke aswell as the fact i nearly cry when i sing it...

    Out to everyone
    And then a hero comes along
    With the strength to carry on
    And you cast your fears aside
    And you know you can survive
    So when you feel like hope is gone
    Look inside you and be strong
    And you'll finally see the truth
    That a hero lies in you.

    ~Hero - Mariah Carey

    This song always helps me when I'm going through a hard time, it reminds me to be strong and keep pressing forward. :slight_smile:

    Time takes a cigarette, puts it in your mouth
    You pull on your finger, then another finger, then your cigarette
    The wall-to-wall is calling, it lingers, then you forget
    Ohhh how how how, you're a rock 'n' roll suicide

    You're too old to lose it, too young to choose it
    And the clocks waits so patiently on your song
    You walk past a cafe but you don't eat when you've lived too long
    Oh, no, no, no, you're a rock 'n' roll suicide

    Chev brakes are snarling as you stumble across the road
    But the day breaks instead so you hurry home
    Don't let the sun blast your shadow
    Don't let the milk float ride your mind
    You're so natural - religiously unkind

    Oh no love! you're not alone
    You're watching yourself but you're too unfair
    You got your head all tangled up but if I could only
    make you care
    Oh no love! you're not alone
    No matter what or who you've been
    No matter when or where you've seen
    All the knives seem to lacerate your brain
    I've had my share, I'll help you with the pain
    You're not alone

    Just turn on with me and you're not alone
    Let's turn on with me and you're not alone (wonderful)
    Gimme your hands cause you're wonderful (wonderful)
    Gimme your hands cause you're wonderful (wonderful)
    Oh gimme your hands.

    la la la...
    I hear a gentle voice from somewhere
    Which might have always been heard
    The warmth found just near to me

    I was forgiven by forgiving many things
    Including my childhood so long ago
    I was healed, though I intended to heal
    I've just noticed, in the way
    That I was saved by love
    Though I tried to keep love away

    You come down quietly from somewhere
    And always tell me
    Of the happiness just near to me

    Supporting and being supported
    I draw close to you little by little
    Protecting and being protected
    I get convinced
    That I was saved by love
    Though I tried to keep love away

    If you have a pain hard to get over
    Shall we share it and walk on?
    Gathering pleasure too big for each of us
    Shall we share them and walk on?

    I sing this song only to you now
    I sing this song only to you now
    You are my special treasure
    You are my special treasure

    la la la...
    No rain, can't get the rainbow
    No rain, can't get the rainbow

    Rainbow- Ayumi Hamasaki (english translation)

    This song always makes me really happy, and fills me with something I can't quite describe. Her music is normally like that for me, even if I can't understand all of it without translations.

    Look inside, look inside your tiny mind,
    now look a bit harder.
    ‘Cause we're so uninspired, so sick and tired
    of all the hatred you harbor.

    So you say it's not okay to be gay.
    Well I think you're just evil.
    You're just some racist who can't tie my laces.
    Your point of view is medieval.

    Fuck you. Fuck you very, very much.
    ‘Cause we hate what you do
    and we hate your whole crew,
    so please don't stay in touch.

    Fuck you fuck you very, very much.
    ‘Cause your words don't translate
    and it's getting quite late,
    so please don't stay in touch.

    Do you get, do you get a little kick out of being slow minded?
    You want to be like your father,
    it's approval your after.
    Well that's not how you find it.

    Do you, do you really enjoy living a life that's so hateful?
    ‘Cause there's a hole where your soul should be,
    you’re losing control of it
    and it's really distasteful.

    Alot of F-bombs, but i love it <3 I always listen to this when a homophobic person is giving me shit.

    "It's so beautiful here," she says,
    "This moment now and this moment, now."
    And I never thought I would find her here:
    Flannel and satin, my four walls transformed.
    But she's looking at me, straight to center,
    No room at all for any other thought.

    And I know I don't want this, oh, I swear I don't want this.
    There's a reason not to want this but I forgot.

    In the terminal she sleeps on my shoulder,
    Hair falling forward, mouth all askew.
    Fluorescent announcements beat their wings overhead:
    "Passengers missing, we're looking for you."
    And she dreams through the noise, her weight against me,
    Face pressed into the corduroy grooves.

    Maybe it means nothing, maybe it means nothing,
    Maybe it means nothing, but I'm afraid to move.

    And the words: they're everything and nothing.
    I want to search for her in the offhand remarks.
    Who are you, taking coffee, no sugar?
    Who are you, echoing street signs?
    Who are you, the stranger in the shell of a lover,
    Dark curtains drawn by the passage of time?

    Oh, words, like rain, how sweet the sound.
    "Well anyway," she says, "I'll see you around..."

    Recessional by Vienna Teng

    -------

    There are different interpretations of the song, but because it's a female singing about a female, some think it's about falling in love with a friend (which god knows I can relate to!). Even though it's a very sad song, something about it comforts me.

    'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life
    Try to make ends meet
    Your a slave to money then you die
    I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
    You know the one that takes you
    to the places where all the things meet yeah

    No change,
    I can't change I can't change, I can't change
    But I'm here in my mold, I am here in my mold
    But I'm a million different people from one day to the next
    I can't change my mold
    No, no, no, no, no

    Well I never pray
    But tonight I'm on my knees yeah
    I need to hear some sounds
    that recognize the pain in me, yeah
    I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind,
    I feel free now
    But the airways are clean
    and there's nobody singing to me now

    No change,
    I can't change I can't change, I can't change
    But I'm here in my mold, I am here in my mold
    And I'm a million different people from one day to the next
    I can't change my mold
    No, no, no, no, no
    I can't change I can't change

    'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life
    Try to make ends meet
    Try to find some money, then you die
    I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
    You know the one that takes you
    to the places where all the things meet yeah

    You know I can't change, I can't change
    I can't change, I can't change
    But I'm here in my mold, I am here in my mold
    And I'm a million different people from one day to the next
    I can't change my mold
    No, no, no, no, no
    I can't change my mold
    no, no, no, no, no,
    I can't change

    I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
    I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
    (It justs sex and violence melody and silence)
    (Been down)
    (Ever been down)
    That you've ever been down
    That you've ever been down

    The Verve- Bittersweet Symphony

    I said I'd moved on and I'll leave it alone,
    But before I walk out there is something that I need you to know,
    I got lost in a blink of an eye,
    And I can never get back, no I've never got back,
    You were not there when I wanted to say,
    That you were everything that right and it wasn't you but me to change,
    Now I got to go it alone,
    But I'll never give up, no I'll never give up

    What am I fighting for,
    There must me something more,
    For all these words I've said,
    Do you feel anything

    I said I'm ok but I know how to lie,
    You were all that i had,
    You were delicate and hard to find,
    I got lost in the back of my mind,
    And I can never get back, no I've never got back
    You were not there when I needed to say,
    I hit the bottom so fast that my head was spinning 'round for days,
    Now I gotta go it alone,
    But I will never give up, no I'll never give up

    What am I fighting for,
    There must me something more,
    For all these words I've said,
    Do you feel anything

    What am I fighting for,
    What am I fighting for

    Never give up on this [x4]

    Said I'm ok but I know how to lie,
    But I will never give up, no I'll never give up

    What am I fighting for,
    There must me something more,
    For all these words I've said,
    Do you feel anything

    What am I fighting for (No I'm never gonna give up, give up)
    What am I fighting for (No I'm never gonna give up, give up)

    Said that I'd fight for the one that I've found,
    I'm gonna stay here while I wait for you to come around,
    I fight you're apart of me now,
    And I will never give up, no I'll never give up

    ^^^ Fighting by Yellowcard.

    I LOVE THIS SONG!

    I saw a saviour, a saviour come my way.
    I thought I’d see it in the cold light of day.
    But now I realise that I’m
    only for me.

    If only I could see,
    return myself to me,
    and recognise the poison in my heart.
    There is no other place,
    no one else I face.
    The remedy will agree with how I feel.

    Here in my reflecting, what more can I say?
    For I am guilty for the voice that I obey.
    Too scared to sacrifice a choice
    chosen for me.

    If only I could see,
    return myself to me,
    and recognize the poison in my heart.
    There is no other place,
    no one else I face.
    The remedy will agree with how I feel.

    We could be perfect one last night
    And die like star-crossed lovers when we fight
    And we can settle this affair
    If you would shed your yellow take my hand
    And then we'll solve the mystery of laceration gravity
    This riddle of revenge please understand it has to be this way

    Stand up fucking tall
    Don't let them see your back
    And take my fucking hand
    And never be afraid again

    We've only got one chance to put this at an end
    and cross the patron saint of switchblade fights
    You said we're not celebrities, we spark and fade, they die by threes
    I'll make you understand and you can trade me for an apparition

    Stand up fucking tall
    Don't let them see your back
    And take my fucking hand
    And never

    Trust, you said
    Who put the words in your head
    Oh how wrong we were to think
    That immortality meant never dying

    Stand
    Take my fucking hand
    Take my fucking...

    Stand up fucking tall
    Don't let them see your back
    And take my fucking hand
    And never be afraid again

    Just because my hands around your throat!

    One Step Behind by The Living End (fantastic lyrics and it includes a horn section, i saw this live and it was amazing)
    Come in sit by the light
    Tell us everything that happened tonight
    We know you were there
    There at the scene of the crime
    No, no you've got it all wrong
    You can't blame me
    For something I haven't done
    It was all just a big mistake

    And now you can't think straight
    Cause they're onto you now
    And they've figured you out
    Cause they're onto you now

    They're always just one step behind
    And you're so scared of what they'll find
    And now you're running for your life
    You're buying everything they sell
    Those pushed will always say they fell
    You got a postcard sent from hell

    With my strong alibi
    You can't frame me, don't even try
    You don't know me
    You're not even trying to see

    And now you can't think straight
    Cause they're onto you now
    And they've figured you out
    Cause they're onto you now

    They're always just one step behind
    And you're so scared of what they'll find
    And now you're running for your life
    You're buying everything they sell
    Those pushed will always say they fell
    You got a postcard sent from hell

    And you don't belong
    And the papers are never wrong!
    Just like the public don't forget, don't forget, don't forget

    And now you can't think straight

    And now you can't think straight
    You're not even trying to see

    They're always just one step behind
    And you're so scared of what they'll find
    And now you're running for your life
    You're buying everything they sell
    Those pushed will always say they fell
    You got a postcard sent from hell

    I Don't Remember- Powderfinger

    Tonight my heart well it broke like glass
    I’ve made a mistake that I’ll never surpass
    I’m floating in space unattached to the world
    I cast off the memory of the spell of that girl
    Whatever I get I guess it’s what I deserve

    I don’t remember
    Just what made it so hard before
    I know you needed someone to take the fall
    I know you needed someone to blame it on

    I smashed the mirror just to look what’s behind
    Picked through the pieces just to see what I’d find
    I found my heart and it broke like glass
    I’ve made that mistake that I’ll never surpass
    I let go of my grip on the past

    I don’t remember
    Just what made it so hard before
    I know you needed someone to take the fall
    I know you needed someone to blame it on

    Hey, hey don’t you look away
    Hey, hey I’ve got something to say

    All but family
    I'm so tired of being here
    Suppressed by all my childish fears
    And if you have to leave
    I wish that you would just leave
    'Cause your presence still lingers here
    And it won't leave me alone

    These wounds won't seem to heal
    This pain is just too real
    There's just too much that time cannot erase

    [Chorus:]
    When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
    When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
    And I held your hand through all of these years
    But you still have all of me

    You used to captivate me by your resonating light
    Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
    Your face—it haunts my once pleasant dreams
    Your voice—it chased away all the sanity in me

    These wounds won't seem to heal
    This pain is just too real
    There's just too much that time cannot erase

    [Chorus]

    I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
    But though you're still with me
    I've been alone all along

    [Chorus]

    ...me, me, me.
    My immortal by Evanescence

    Phoenix- If I Ever Feel Better

    They say an end can be a start
    Feel like I've been buried yet I'm still alive
    It's like a bad day that never ends
    I feel the chaos around me
    A thing I don't try to deny
    I'd better learn to accept that
    There are things in my life that I can't control

    They say love ain't nothing but a sore
    I don't even know what love is
    Too many tears have had to fall
    Don't you know I'm so tired of it all
    I have known terror dizzy spells
    Finding out the secrets words won't tell
    Whatever it is it can't be named
    There's a part of my world that's in the way

    You know I don't want to be clever
    To be brilliant or superior
    True like ice, true like fire
    Now I know that a breeze can blow me away
    Now I know there's much more dignity
    In defeat than in the brightest victory
    I'm losing my balance on the tight rope
    Tell me please, tell me please, tell me please...

    If I ever feel better
    Remind me to spend some good time with you
    You can give me your number
    When it's all over I'll let you know

    Hang on to the good days
    I can lean on my friends
    They help me going through hard times
    But I'm feeding the enemy
    I'm in league with the foe
    Blame me for what's happening
    I can try, I can try, I can try...

    No one knows the hard times I went through
    If happiness came I miss the call
    The stormy days ain't over
    I've tried and lost know I think that I pay the cost
    Now I've watched all my castles fall
    They were made of dust, after all
    Someday all this mess will make me laugh
    I can wait, I can wait, I can wait...

    If I ever feel better
    Remind me to spend some good time with you
    You can give me your number
    When it's all over I'll let you know

    If I ever feel better
    Remind me to spend some good time with you
    You can give me your number
    When it's all over I'll let you know

    It's like somebody took my place
    I ain't even playing my own game
    The rules have changed well I didn't know
    There are things in my life I can't control
    I feel the chaos around me
    A thing I don't try to deny
    I'd better learn to accept that
    There's a part of my life that will go away

    Dark is the night, cold is the ground
    In the circular solitude of my heart
    As one who strives a hill to climb
    I am sure I'll come through I don't know how
    They say an end can be a start
    Feels like I've been buried yet I'm still alive

    I'm losing my balance on the tight rope
    Tell me please, tell me please, tell me please...

    If I ever feel better
    Remind me to spend some good time with you
    You can give me your number
    When it's all over I'll let you know

    If I ever feel better
    Remind me to spend some good time with you
    You can give me your number
    When it's all over I'll let you know

    If I ever feel better
    Remind me to spend some good time with you
    You can give me your number
    When it's all over I'll let you know.

    She could hear them fucking through those thin hotel walls
    …She heard baby’s crying, she heard laughter, she heard sirens
    Red and blue lights flashing through those cheap hotel drapes
    Blood spilled out on the porcelain
    The bathtub’'s overflowing

    Paralytic states of dependency
    Our waking life’'s just a living dream
    Agitated states of amazement
    Never quite the woman that she wanted to be
    Never quite the woman that she wanted to be

    Spread out face down on those stained, cheap hotel sheets
    She spent the last years of her life running from the boy she used to be
    Cut her face wide open, shaved the bone down, then pumped her lips up exaggerated,
    A fucked up kind of feminine

    Paralytic states of dependency
    Our waking life’'s just a living dream
    Agitated states of amazement
    Never quite the woman that she wanted to be
    Never quite the woman that she wanted to be

    Night time at the hotel, there was fighting in the hall
    Thin chain lock to keep the world out, she held her breath till it was gone
    Standing naked in front of that hotel bathroom mirror,
    In her dysphoria's affection, she still saw her mother'’s son.

    Paralytic states of dependency
    Our waking life'’s just a living dream
    Agitated states of amazement
    Never quite the woman that she wanted to be

    By the time the ball dropped, it was already over
    No resolutions for the new year beginning tomorrow

    Recovery - James Arthur
    In my recovery
    I’m a soldier at war
    I have broken down walls
    I defined
    I designed
    My recovery

    In the sound of the sea
    In the oceans of me
    I defined
    I designed
    My recovery

    Keep soaring,
    Keep song-writing
    My recovery

    Sia - Burn the Pages

    Yesterday is gone and you will be OK
    Place your past into a book, burn the pages
    Let 'em cook oh
    Yesterday is dead and gone and so today
    Place your past into a book, burn the pages
    Let 'em cook

    Sia - Chandelier

    But I'm holding on for dear life, won't look down won't open my eyes
    Keep my glass full until morning light, 'cos I'm just holding on for tonight
    Help me, I'm holding on for dear life, won't look down won't open my eyes
    Keep my glass full until morning light, 'cos I'm just holding on for tonight
    On for tonight

    Young the Giant - Cough Syrup

    Life's too short to even care at all, oh
    I'm losing my mind losing my mind losing control, oh oh
    These fishes in the sea they're staring at me oh oh
    Oh oh oh oh
    A wet world aches for a beat of a drum
    Oh

    If I could find a way to see this straight
    I'd run away
    To some fortune that I, I should have found by now

    I'm waiting for this cough syrup to come down, come down.

    Life's too short to even care at all, oh, oh
    I'm coming up now, coming up now out of the blue, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
    These zombies in the park they're looking for my heart, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
    A dark world aches for a splash of the sun, oh, oh

    If I could find a way to see this straight
    I'd run away
    To some fortune that I, I should have found by now

    And so I run now to the things they said could restore me
    Restore life the way it should be
    I'm waiting for this cough syrup to come down

    Life's too short to even care at all, oh, oh
    I'm losing my mind losing my mind losing control

    If I could find a way to see this straight
    I'd run away
    To some fortune that I, I should have found by now

    So I run now to the things they said could restore me
    Restore life the way it should be
    I'm waiting for this cough syrup to come down

    One more spoon of cough syrup now, whoa.
