Hang by Matchbox 20
She grabs her magazines
She packs her things and she goes
She leaves the pictures hanging on the wall, she burns all
Her notes and she knows, she's been here too few years
To feel this old
He smokes his cigarette, he stays outside 'till it's gone
If anybody ever had a heart, he wouldn't be alone
He knows, she's been here too few years, to be gone
And we always say, it would be good to go away, someday
But if there's nothing there to make things change
If it's the same for you I'll just hang
The trouble understand, is she got reasons he don't
Funny how he couldn't see at all, 'til she grabbed up her coat
And she goes, she's been here too few years to take it all in stride
But still it's much too long, to let hurt go (you let her go)
And we always say, it would be good to go away, someday
But if there's nothing there to make things change
If it's the same for you I'll just hang
The same for you
I'll always hang
Well I always say, it would be good to go away
But if things don't work out like we think
And there's nothing there to ease this ache
But if there's nothing there to make things change
If it's the same for you, I'll just hang

How Far We've Come by Matchbox 20
Hello
Hello
Hello
Waking up at the start of the end of the world,
But it's feeling just like every other morning before,
Now I wonder what my life is going to mean if it's gone,
The cars are moving like a half a mile an hour
And I started staring at the passengers who're waving goodbye
Can you tell me what was ever really special about me all this time?
I believe the world is burning to the ground
Oh well I guess we're gonna find out
Let's see how far we've come
Let's see how far we've come
Well I believe it all is coming to an end
Oh well, I guess, we're gonna pretend,
Let's see how far we've come
Let's see how far we've come
I think it turned ten o'clock but I don't really know
And I can't remember caring for an hour or so
Started crying and I couldn't stop myself
I started running but there's no where to run to
I sat down on the street took a look at myself
Said where you going man you know the world is headed for hell
Say your goodbyes if you've got someone you can say goodbye to
I believe the world is burning to the ground
Oh well I guess we're gonna find out
Let's see how far we've come
Let's see how far we've come
Well I, believe, it all, is coming to an end
Oh well, I guess, we're gonna pretend,
Let's see how far we've come
Let's see how far we've come
It's gone, gone, baby, it's all gone
There is no one on the corner and there's no one at home
It was cool cool, it was just all cool
Now it's over for me and it's over for you
Well it's gone, gone, baby, it's all gone
There is no one on the corner and there's no one at home
Well it was cool cool, it was just all cool
Now it's over for me and it's over for you
I believe the world is burning to the ground
Oh well I guess we're gonna find out
Let's see how far we've come
Let's see how far we've come
Well I, believe, it all, is coming to an end
Oh well, I guess, we're gonna pretend,
Let's see how far we've come
Let's see how far we've come
Let's see how far we've come
Let's see how far we've come
Let's see how far we've come
Let's see how far we've come
Let's see how far we've come
Let's see how far we've come
Let's see how far we've come

I Can't Let You Go by Matchbox 20
I'll stick around
And see how bad it gets
I'll settle down
And deal with old regrets
You know I
I adore you
I can't let you go
Can't let you go
You're part of my soul
You're all that I know
Can't let you go
Is it better now
Do you feel like all is fair
Can we work it out
So it's easier for me to bear
Because life
It can blind you
Down from the edge
I can see where we end
I'd give up all my days to go back
There was all this wonder
And all this magic
Is all this wonder
Over and done
If love were a whisper
What would I give you to speak
Maybe you're out of my reach
I can't let you go

If I Fall by Matchbox 20
When i get close to something beautiful
Then i feel low because i know
I'll never have it for too long
I've been everywhere
Im like an institution
I fell down on myself
Just to pray for sweet sunshine
If i fall
Fall
When i get home i swear i'm gonna
Change my ways
And i'll start dancing
Live a little
Live it up these days
I say all the words
But lack a real solution
I tell all my friends
Stick around to see who's right
And if i fall
Fall
Help me if i fall
Help me if i fall
Don't let me go
You just give me the strength
To guide me
Get me my
Get me high
Help me take over this city
Let it go
Don't let it go
Help me if i fall.

Mad Season by Matchbox 20
I feel stupid - but I know it won't last for long
I've been guessing - I coulda been guessin' wrong
You don't know me now
I kinda thought that you should somehow
Does that whole mad season got ya down
I feel stupid but it's something that comes and goes
I've been changin' - think it's funny how now one knows
We don't talk about - the little things that we do without
When that whole mad season comes around
So why ya gotta stand there
Looking like the answer now
It seems to me - you'd come around
I need you now
Do you think you can cope
You figured me out - I'm lost and I'm hopeless
Bleeding and broken - though I've never spoken
I come undone - in this mad season
I feel stupid - but I think I been catchin' on
I feel ugly - but I know I still turn you on
You've grown colder now, torn apart, angry, turned around
Will that whole mad season knock you down
So are you gonna stand there
Are you gonna help me out
You need to be together now - I need you now
Do you think you can cope
You figured me out - I'm lost and I'm hopeless
Bleeding and broken - though I've never spoken
I come undone - in this mad season
Now I'm cryin' - isn't that what you want
I'm tryin' to live my life on my own
But I won't
At times - I do believe I am strong
So someone tell me why, why, why
Do I, I, I feel stupid
And I came undone
And I came undone
I need you now
Do you think you can cope
You figured me out - I'm lost and I'm hopeless
Bleeding and broken - though I've never spoken
I need you now
Do you think you can cope
You figured me out - I'm a child and I'm hopeless
Bleeding and broken - though I've never spoken
I come undone - in this mad season
In this mad season
There's been a mad season
Been a mad season

These Hard Times by Matchbox 20
Morning falls like rain
Into the city life
There goes another night
Lose my breath in waves
Knowing that every crash
Is bleeding the hourglass
And taking the stride
From all our lives
Everyone keeps talking
They promise you everything
They don't mean anything
We may lose our focus
There's just too many words
We're never meant to learn
And we don't feel so alive
Say goodbye, these days are gone
And we can't keep holding on
When all we need is some relief
Through these hard times
Through these hard times
Move your hands in circles
Keeping me hypnotized
The power behind your eyes
Move around your bedroom
Cursing the naked sky
You should be here tonight
But you stay alone and cry
Say goodbye, these days are gone
And we can't keep holding on
When all we need is some relief
Through these hard times
Oh, there's something missing
Oh, you never feel it but you
Oh, you're gonna feel it
When it's gone, when it's gone
Say goodbye, these days are gone
And we can't keep holding on
When all we need is some relief
Through these hard times, yeah
These hard times, oh no, no
Hard times, hard times
Say goodbye, these days are gone
Say goodbye, these days are gone
These days are gone

You Won't Be Mine by Matchbox 20
Take your head around the world
See what you get
From your mind
Write your soul down word for word
See who's your friend
Who is kind
It's almost like a disease
I know soon you will be
Over the lies, you'll be strong
You'll be rich in love and you will carry on
But no - oh no
No you won't be mine
Take your straight line for a curve
Make it stretch, the same old line
Try to find if it was worth what you spent
Why you're guilty for the way
You're feeling now
It's almost like being free
And I know soon you will be
Over the lies, you'll be strong
You'll be rich in love and you will carry on
But no - oh no
No you won't be mine
Take yourself out to the curb
Sit and wait
A fool for life
It's almost like a disease
I know soon you will be
Over the lies, you'll be strong
You'll be rich in love and you will carry on
But no - oh no
No you won't be mine

Find the Real by Alter Bridge
Stuck in the middle
I burrow inside
Back to the cradle
Away from the burdens
Of all my crimes
Before it's fatal
The past has found me
The truth come out
Always remember
With no place to fall
But straight down
I must surrender
Well it seems I've finally
Thought of everything
I want to love
I want to feel
Find peace
Find the real
There's a face I put on
All my life
The face of an angel
I look in the mirror
Only to find
The face of a stranger
And all that I've taken
I hunger for more
Cause I'm selfish
And all I'm left with
Is a crown of thorns
And I'm helpless
Well it seems I've finally
Thought of everything
I want to love
I want to feel
Find peace
Find the real
I'll trade these lies for something right
I will kill what hurts with something pure
I will be redeemed so I can breathe again
Well it seems I've finally
Thought of everything
I want to love
I want to feel
Find peace
Find the real

Shed My Skin by Alter Bridge
I am not alone
I live with the memories regret is my home
This is my true freedom
Express all the feelings of what I've become
I watch the rising sun
I hope I find some peace today
[CHORUS]
It seems I've gone away
It seems I've lost myself
It seems really lost my way
It seems I've lost myself
It seems I've
Shed my skin
Are you ready for me
Or purge my love
Are you ready for me
A bitter sinking feeling
Awake to the fact there's no going back
To the world in which I was living
I'm searching for something but found less than nothing
I watch the rising sun
I hope I find some peace today
[CHORUS]
Are you ready for me
Or purge my love
Are you ready for me
Oh 'cause I'm dying to feel
What I have lost
Oh and what I was
All my life I've waited
Endless days have taken
Taken what made me free
Years have gone
I'm broken
Left the past unspoken
Those years
Oh they haunt me still
Shed my skin
Are you ready for me
Or purge my love
Are you ready for me
And shed my skin

Break Me Down by Alter Bridge
It's too late the time has come
I've kept this inside me for way too long
Silence will leave me cold
Lost on a highway that never takes me home
[Chorus:]
I want to step aside
I want to give it up
Before I lose it all
It's tearing me inside
The way you break me down
Oh there will come a time
When I will come undone
And you will let me fall
I'll leave it all behind
Before you break me down
The weight of a thousand lies
Promises broken haunt me all the time
You say that you're sure to change
But that black heart reveals that
You'll always stay the same
[Chorus]
I realize
Forgiveness
Is calling
And it's calling
I've denied
The reason
I'm falling
And I'm falling
So let go

Fly by Nickleback
Father, tell me somethin'
Where do bad men go when they die?
And mother says you'll go there but
Wings for her and I and I don't mind
Cause I have always wanted to learn to...
Fly... learn to
Fly... learn to
Fly... learn to
Fly...
Brother, tell me somethin'
If I take this, am I going to die?
And he says no, so then I figure what the hell
I'll try cause it's my life
So light the match and you and I will...
Fly... learn to
Fly... learn to
Fly... learn to
Fly...
Cause I'm on my hands and knees I've crawled eternity to beg forgiveness
And someday I'll be there I swear to you, God, as my witness
For all the trusts I've broke and, let justice know, it's just that easy
Cause I'm a liar, I conspired, I'm a liar...
And father tell your son,
It's not your gun and bloody hands
Don't hide behind locked doors
In dresser drawers those bullets wait to fly...
Fly... wait to
Fly... wait to
Fly... wait to
Fly...
Cause I'm on my hands and knees
I've crawled eternity to beg forgiveness
And someday I'll be there I swear to you,
God, as my witness
For all the trusts I've broke and,
let justice know, it's just that easy
Cause I'm a liar, I conspired, I'm a liar...

I Don't Have by Nikelback
I don't live anymore
I don't love me this way
I don't have wings to fly
I don't have, gone away
I don't have anything
I don't need a space to breathe
I don't hide in sanctity
I don't need what you need
I don't have, have a space to...
I don't claim to know just why
I don't try to pacify
I don't love me just yet
I don't care, gone away
This ones mine
This ones mine
This ones mine
All mine
Not this time I won't deny
This one's mine
All this time
Not this time I won't deny
All this time, Yes it's mine
I don't have anything
I don't need the space to breathe
I don't hide in sanctity
I don't need what you need
I don't have... I don't have...
I don't have... I don't have...
I don't have anything
I don't need the space to breathe
I don't hide in sanctity
I don't need what you need
I don't have... I don't have...
I don't have... I don't have...

Okay new Creed cd came out the other day, totally awesome, first time I've loved every song on one of their cds. This is my fave off there; had it on repeat in the car so much that my mom was complaining that she was singing it in her dreams last night...
On My Sleeve by Creed
The eyes around me are so cruel
With every chance they steal my soul
So walk with me, talk with me
Hold my hand I'm stumbling in consequence
It buries me alive
Can you fix what's made to be broken
I can fix what's made to be
My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I'm not hiding no, it only hurts to breathe
My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I know it's blinding oh
It only hurts to breathe
Standing now, I'm alone
I need answers tell me everything you know
So heavy is the night
Exhausted, whispers tend to crucify my mind
I'm fighting but I'm blind
Can you fix what's made to be broken
I can fix what's made to be
My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I'm not hiding no, it only hurts to breathe
My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I know it's blinding oh
It only hurts, it only hurts, it only hurts to breathe
I shout out, can you hear me
Mistakes have cost me years
Do they cost you
Are you like me
Tell me please
My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I'm not hiding no, it only hurts to breathe
My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I know it's blinding oh
It only hurts to breathe

This Is War 30 Seconds to Mars
A warning to the people
The good and the evil
This is war
To the soldier, the civillian
The martyr, the victim
This is war
It's the moment of truth and the moment to lie
The moment to live and the moment to die
The moment to fight, the moment to fight, to fight, to fight, to fight
To the right, to the left
We will fight to the death
To the Edge of the Earth
It's a brave new world from the last to the first
To the right, to the left
We will fight to the death
To the Edge of the Earth
It's a brave new world, It's a brave new world
A warning to the prophet
To the liar, to the honest
This is war
To the leader, to the prior, the victim, the Messiah
This Is War
It's the moment of truth and the moment to lie
The moment to live and the moment to die
The moment to fight, the moment to fight, to fight, to fight, to fight
To the right, to the left
We will fight to the death
To the Edge of the Earth
It's a brave new world from the last to the first
To the right, to the left
We will fight to the death
To the Edge of the Earth
It's a brave new world, It's a brave new world, It's a brave new world
I do believe in the light
Raise your hands into the sky
The fight is done
The war is won
Lift your hands toward the sun
Toward the sun, toward the sun, toward the sun
The war is won
To the right, to the left
We will fight to the death
To the Edge of the Earth
It's a brave new world from the last to the first
To the right, to the left
We will fight to the death
To the Edge of the Earth
It's a brave new world, It's a brave new world, It's a brave new world
A brave new world, the war is won, the war is won, a brave new world

In Loving Memory by Alter Bridge
Thanks for all you've done
I've missed you for so long
I can't believe you're gone
You still live in me
I feel you in the wind
You guide me constantly
I never knew what it was to be alone, no
Cause you were always there for me
You were always there waiting
And now I come home and I miss your face so
Smiling down on me
I close my eyes to see
And I know, you're a part of me
And it's your song that sets me free
I sing it when I feel I can't hold on
I sing tonight cause it comforts me
I carry the things that remind me of you
In loving memory of
The one that was so true
You were as kind as you could be
And even though you're gone
You still mean the world to me
I never knew what it was to be alone, no
Cause you were always there for me
You were always there waiting
But now I come home and it's not the same, no
It feels empty and alone
I can't believe you're gone
And I know, you're a part of me
And it's your song that sets me free
I sing it when I feel I can't hold on
I sing tonight cause it comforts me
I'm glad he set you free from sorrow
I'll still love you more tomorrow
And you'll be here with me still
And what you did, you did with feeling
And You always found the meaning
And you always will
And you always will
And you always will
Ooo's
And I know, you're a part of me
And it's your song that sets me free
I sing it when I feel I can't hold on
I sing tonight cause it comforts me
In loving memory of my Papa, James E Butts Sr
1 April 1932 - 9 March 2010
