After The Fall
Artist: October Project
Album: Falling Farther In
In a city of faces
That never look back
Where doors never open
And eyes never meet
Someone behind me was tracing my steps
As I ran
Through the fog down a cobblestone street
In a city of crossroads
That never lead home
Where secrets unravel
And fates intertwine
Someone was calling my name in the night
As I ran
From a voice that was echoing mine
The farther you run
The more you recall
The loss of your innocence
After the fall
The father you run
The more you recall
After the fall
In a city of magic
That spins out of time
Where God has no image
And Man finds no grace
Something inside me was seeking itself
As I ran
From a shadow who's stolen my face
The farther you run
The more you recall
The loss of your innocence
After the fall

Bury My Lovely
Artist: October Project
Album: October Project
Cover the mirror, hide in your dreams
Forget what they told you, forget what it means
A picture worth a thousand lies, the memory and the mirror
Nothing but what came before, nothing but a closing door
A picture worth a thousand lies, a thousand words, a thousand eyes
Bury my lovely, hide in your room
Bury my lovely, forget me soon, forget me
Forget me now, forget me now
Cover the madness, cover the fear
No one will ever know you were here
A figure in the hallway light, returning like a ghost
Something that was left behind, something in a child's mind
A picture worth a thousand lies, a thousand words, a thousand eyes
Bury my lovely, hide in your room
Bury my lovely, forget me soon, forget me
Forget me now, forget me now
Bury my lovely, bury the lies, bury me under a thousand goodbyes
A shadow from another time is waiting in the night
Something happened long ago, something that will not let go
Bury my lovely, hide in your room
Bury my lovely, forget me soon, forget me
Forget me now, forget me now

Cold
Artist: Annie Lennox
Album: Diva
Come to me
Run to me
Do and be done with me
(Cold Cold Cold)
Don't I exist for you
Don't I still live for you
(Cold cold cold)
Everything I possess
Given with tenderness
Wrapped in a ribbon of glass
Time it may take us but God only knows
How I've paid for those things in the past
Dying is easy it's living that scares me to death
I could be so content hearing the sound of your breath
Cold is the color of crystal the snowlight
That falls from the heavenly skies
Catch me and let me dive under under
For I want to swim in the pools of your eyes
I want to be with you baby
Ohhh slip me inside of your heart
Don't I belong to you baby
Don't you know that nothing can tear us apart
Come on now
Come on now
Come on now
Telling you that
I loved you right from the start...
But the more I want you the less I get
Ain't that just the way things are...
Winter has frozen us
Let love take hold of us
(Cold cold cold)
Now we are shivering
Blue ice is glittering
(Cold cold cold)
Cold is the colour of crystal the snowlight
That falls from the heavenly skies
Catch me and let me dive under
For I want to swim in the pools of your eyes
Don't you know it
(Cool cool cold)
(Cool cool cold)
(Cold cold cold)

Elevation
Artist: U2
Album: All That You Can't Leave Behind
High, higher than the sun
You shoot me from a gun
I need you to elevate me here
As corner of your lips
Is the orbit of your hips
Eclipse, you elevate my soul
I've lost all self-control
Been living like a mole
Now going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high, elevation
A star lit up like a cigar
Strung out like a guitar
Maybe you could educate my mind
Explain all these controls
I can't sing but I've got soul
The goal is elevation
A mole, Living in a hole
Digging up my soul
Going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high, elevation
Love, lift me out of these blues
Won't you tell me something true
I believe in you
A mole, living in a hole
Digging up my soul
Going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high, elevation
Elevation...
Elevation...
Elevation...
Elevation...
Elevation...
Elevation...

Endless Circle
Artist: November Project
Album: A Thousand Days
It was stormy from the start
You were raining in my heart
Like a thousand tears of laughter
It was easy to ignore
Everything that came before
In the hope of something after
Will I find myself letting go of nothing
Holding on to another time
Sometimes cruel, sometimes kind
Even when you hurt sometimes you were mine
At the end of an endless circles
I know what I'm searching for
Somehow every time that I leave you
I love you even more
What is borrowed, what is blue
What is lost inside of you
What is waiting to be broken
With a kiss or with a dare
There's a truth you can't repair
With a love that isn't spoken
Will we ever be less alone together
On our way to a separate peace
Nothing better, nothing worse
Nothing but the universe to deny
At the end of an endless circle
I know what I'm searching for
Somehow every time that I leave you
I love you even more
Please rescue me from the look in your eyes
I'm not afraid of the truth in your lies
In my heart and in my soul
You're the part that keeps me whole
You were always my redemption
Something borrowed,something blue
Something that has gone with you
Something true
At the end of an endless circle
I know what I'm searching for
Somehow every time that I leave you
I love you even more

Everbody Wants To Rule The World
Artist: Tears for Fears
Album: Songs from the Big Chair
Welcome to your life
There's no turning back
Even while we sleep
We will find you acting on your best behavior
Turn your back on Mother Nature
Everybody wants to rule the world.
It's my own design
It's my own remorse
Help me to decide
Help me make the most
Of freedom and of pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world.
There's a room where the light won't find you
Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down
When they do I'll be right behind you.
So glad we've almost made it
So sad they had to fade it
Everybody wants to rule the world.
I can't stand this indecision
Married with a lack of vision
Everybody wants to rule the world
Say that you'll never never never never need it
One headline why believe it?
Everybody wants to rule the world.
All for freedom and for pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world.

Fragile
Artist: Sting
Album: Nothing Like The Sun
If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one
Drying in the color of the evening sun
Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away
But something in our minds will always stay
Perhaps this final act was meant
To clinch a lifetime's argument
That nothing comes from violence
and nothing ever could
For all those born beneath an angry star
Lest we forget how fragile we are
On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are

I Will Survive
Artist: Gloria Gaynor
Album: I Will Survive Single CD
First I was afraid
I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live
without you by my side
But I spent so many nights
thinking how you did me wrong
I grew strong
I learned how to carry on
and so you're back
from outer space
I just walked in to find you here
with that sad look upon your face
I should have changed my stupid lock
I should have made you leave your key
If I had known for just one second
you'd be back to bother me
Go on now go walk out the door
just turn around now
'cause you're not welcome anymore
weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
you think I'd crumble
you think I'd lay down and die
Oh no, not I
I will survive
as long as i know how to love
I know I will stay alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
and I'll survive
I will survive
It took all the strength I had
not to fall apart
kept trying hard to mend
the pieces of my broken heart
and I spent oh so many nights
just feeling sorry for myself
I used to cry
Now I hold my head up high
and you see me
somebody new
I'm not that chained up little person
still in love with you
and so you felt like dropping in
and just expect me to be free
now I'm saving all my loving
for someone who's loving me

In God's Country
Artist: U2
Album: The Joshua Tree
Desert sky
Dream beneath the desert sky
The rivers run, but soon run dry
We need new dreams tonight
Desert rose
Dreamed I saw a desert rose
Dress torn in ribbons and in bows
Like a siren she calls to me
Sleep comes like a drug in God's country
Sad eyes, crooked crosses in God's country
Set me alight
We'll punch a hole right through the night
Everyday the dreamers die
To see what's on the other side
She is liberty
And she comes to rescue me
Hope, faith, her vanity
The greatest gift is gold
Sleep comes like a drug in God's country
Sad eyes, crooked crosses in God's country
Naked flame
She stands with a naked flame
I stand with the sons of Cain
Burned by the fire of love
Burned by the fire of love

Johnny
Artist: October Project
Album: Falling Farther In
There was Johnny like a stranger
Living in a small town
Measuring the small time
He was thinner than a razor
Johnny in a small town
Living with his thumb on the trigger
Wishing he could be
Just a little bit bigger
Bored
To the heart of himself
He was trouble in the making
Trouble in the keeping
History repeating
He was walking into danger
Johnny in a small town
Looking for a light in the tunnel
Creeping in the dark and
Doubting that the sun'll shine
To the heart of himself
And he tells himself
It'll be all right
Happiness is just around the corner
And he tells himself
It'll be okay
Happiness is just a life away
She was pretty as a picture
Shining in a window
Everybody said so
What did Johnny have to give her
Johnny in a small town
Putting on a suit he had borrowed
Knowing she would probably
Leave him tomorrow
Leave him alone with himself
And he tells himself
It'll be all right
Happiness is just around the corner
And he tells himself
It'll be okay
Happiness is just a life away
Everything is different but it's all the same to him
Everything is nothing like it was
Before she came
Before she stayed
And went away
She left Johnny like a stranger
Waiting in a small town
Measuring the small time
Nights were longer than the days were
Living in a small town
Looking for a door he could open
Hoping that he wouldn't break until he broken free
To the heart of himself
And he tells himself
It'll be all right
Happiness is just around the corner
And he tells himself
It'll be okay
Happiness is just a life away
And he tells himself it'll be all right
Happiness is just around the corner
And he tells himself
It'll be okay
Happiness is just a life away
A life away
Just a life away

Just Another Day
Artist: Oingo Boingo
Album: Dead Man's Party
(there’s life underground)
I feel it all around I feel it in my bones
My life is on the line When I’m away from home
When I step out the door The jungle is alive
I do not trust my ears I don’t believe my eyes
I will not fall in love I cannot risk the bet
Cause hearts are fragile toys So easy to forget
It’s just another day There’s murder in the air
It drags me when I walk I smell it everywhere
It’s just another day Where people cling to light
To drive away the fear That comes with every night
It’s just another . . . . . . . it’s just another day
It’s just another . . . . . . . it’s just another day . . .
It’s just another day When people wake from dreams
With voices in their ears That will not go away
I had a dream last night The world was set on fire
And everywhere I ran There wasn’t any water
The temperature increased The sky was crimson red
The clouds turned into smoke And everyone was dead
(but) there’s a smile on my face . . . for everyone
There’s a golden coin . . . that reflects the sun
There’s a lonely place . . . that’s always cold
There’s a place in the stars . . . for when you get old
There’s razors in my bed That come out late at night
They always disappear Before the morning light
I’m dreaming again Of life underground
It doesn’t ever move It doesn’t make a sound
And just when I think That things are in their place
The heavens are secure The whole thing explodes in my face
It’s just another . . . . . . . it’s just another day
It’s just another . . . . . . . it’s just another day . . .

Missing
Artist: Everything But the Girl
Album: Amplified Heart
I step off the train,
I'm walking down your street again,
And past your door,
But you don't live there anymore.
It's years since you've been there.
Now you've disappeared somewhere
Like outer space,
You've found some better place,
And I miss you
Like the deserts miss the rain.
Could you be dead?
You always were two steps ahead of everyone.
We'd walk behind while you would run.
I look up at your house,
And I can almost hear you shout
Down to me
Where I always used to be.
And I miss you
Like the deserts miss the rain.
Back on the train,
I ask why did I come again.
Can I confess
I've been hanging around your old address?
And the years have proven
To offer nothing since you moved.
You're long gone but I can't move on,
And I miss you
Like the deserts miss the rain

Never Meant To Be
Artist: Sting
Album: I'm So Happy I Can't Stop Crying [single]
This was never meant to be
All the signs were there to see
From the first moment that we met
I knew
This was never meant to be
This was always doomed to fail
From the moment we set sail
All our instincts told us we were wrong
This was never meant to be
But soon, we were enraptured in love's dance
When we danced every night I found
I couldn't live without you
And now, while all my dreams are sad embers
Here in the cold of December
And now you're in the arms of someone else
I always knew that
This was always second best
Our love would fall at the first test
Common sense would tell us we were wrong
This was never meant to be
This was never meant to last
We drank our cup of love too fast
From the first moment that we met
I knew
Now miss
From our first kiss
I tell you this
Was never meant to be

The Promise
Artist: When in Rome
Album: When in Rome
If you need a friend, don't look to a stranger,
You know in the end, I'll always be there.
But when you're in doubt, and when you're in danger,
Take a look all around, and I'll be there.
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say.
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be.
But if you'll wait around awhile, I'll make you fall for me,
I promise you, I promise you I will.
When your day is through, and so is your temper,
You know what to do, I'm gonna always be there.
Sometimes if I shout, it's not what's intended.
These words just come out, with no gripe to bear.
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say.
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be.
But if you'll wait around awhile, I'll make you fall for me,
I promise you, I promise you...
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say.
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be.
And if I had to walk the world, I'd make you fall for me,
I promise you, I promise you I will.
I gotta tell you, I gotta tell you, I need to tell you...
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say.
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be.
But if you'll wait around awhile, I'll make you fall for me,
I promise you, I promise you...
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say.
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be.
And if I had to walk the world, I'd make you fall for me,
I promise you, I promise you I will. I will. I will.

Prospero's Speech
Artist: Loreena McKennitt
Album: The Mask and The Mirror
And now my charms are all o'erthrown
And what strength I have's mine own
Which is most faint; now t'is true
I must be here confined by you
But release me from my bands
With the help of your good hands
Gentle breath of yours my sails
Must fill, or else my project fails,
Which was to please.
Which was to please.
Now I want spirits to enforce, art to enchant
And my ending is despair,
Unless I be relieved by prayer
Which pierces so that it assaults
Mercy itself and frees all faults
As you from crimes would pardon'd be
Let your indulgence set me free.

Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely
Artist: Backstreet Boys
Album: Millennium
Show me the meaning of being lonely
So many words for the broken heart
It's hard to see in a crimson love
So hard to breathe
Walk with me, and maybe
Nights of light
So soon become
Wild and free
I could feel the sun
Your every wish will be done
They tell me...
Show me the meaning of being lonely
Is this the feeling I need to walk with
Tell me why I can't be there where you are
There's something missing in my heart
Life goes on as it never ends
Eyes of stone observe the trends
They never say forever gaze
Guilty roads to an endless love
There's no control
Are you with me now
Your every wish will be done
They tell me
Show me the meaning of being lonely
Is this the feeling I need to walk with
Tell me why I can't be there where you are
There's something missing in my heart
There's nowhere to run
I have no place to go
Surrender my heart, body and soul
How can it be you're asking me to feel the things you never show
You are missing in my heart
Tell me why I can't be there where you are
Show me the meaning of being lonely
Is this the feeling I need to walk with
Tell me why I can't be there where you are
There's something missing in my heart

Sleepless Dark Water
Artist: Sylvia Tosun
Album: Too Close to the Sun
Before you speak what you can’t rehearse
Before the tide you can’t reverse
The pounding of your heart
The rhythm of the surf
A blessing you would curse if you only had the words
For the sleepless dark water
Has caught you in waves of longing and doubt
Before you’re strong enough to stop what you started here
You always know in the ending the waves will come
Before you choose uncertain days
A silver cloud a breath of haze
A fog upon the coast
A ghost of happiness
A sadness you would bless if you only could confess
To the sleepless dark water
That caught you in waves of longing and doubt
Before you’re strong enough to stop what you started here
You always know in the ending the waves will come
To steal the silence
To feel the wind upon your face
You make a promise
Before you can be saved
The sleepless dark water
Has caught you in waves of longing and doubt
Because you’re strong enough to stop what you started here
You’ll always know the ending
The waves will come
The waves will come apart…

Rough neck so go check the law and abide
Watch your step with flex and get a hole in your side
Swallow your pride, don't let your lip react,

Bring all your boys in, here come the poison
Behind my back, all the riffin' ya did,
Front and center, now where your lip at kid?
Who dat is? A mean brotha, bad for your health
Lookin damn good though, if I could say it myself
Told me Loveless is a mad man, but I don't fear that
Got mad weapons too, ain't tryin to hear that
Tryin to bring down me, this champion
When y'all clowns gon' see that it can't be done
Understand me son, I'm the slickest they is,
I'm the quickest as they is, did I say I'm the slickest they is
So if you barking up the wrong tree we comin, don't be startin nothin
Me and my partner gonna test your chest, Loveless
Can't stand the heat then get out the Wild Wild West
