out
I want out
out of this stinking skin
out of this place
beyond this sky
beyond all's grasp
hope is a bullet
and I crave its trajectory
tomorrow is a lie
that I've believed in too long
bring me the trump
bring me the eternal
this is my final request
boring into and boring out
of this hopeless place
has not rendered
anything of substance
is anyone home
to receive me?
is anyone there
who believes?
I am a beggar in the night
bewildered, full of fright
asking everyone I meet
do you know the way out?

monster (paramore)
You were my conscience
so solid, now you're like water
and we started drowning
not like we'd sink any further
but I let my heart go
it's somewhere down at the bottom
but I'll get a new one
and come back for the hope that you've stolen
I'll stop the whole world
I'll stop the whole world
from turning into a monster
and eating us alive
don't you ever wonder how we survive?
well now that you're gone, the world is ours
I'm only human, I've got a skeleton in me
but I'm not the villain
despite what you're always preaching
call me a traitor
I'm just collecting your victims
and they're getting stronger
I hear them calling, calling
I'll stop the whole world
I'll stop the whole world
from turning into a monster
and eating us alive
don't you ever wonder how we survive?
well now that you're gone, the world is ours
well you find your strength in solution
but I liked the tension
and not always knowing the answers
but you're gonna lose it
you're gonna lose it
I'll stop the whole world
I'll stop the whole world
from turning into a monster
and eating us alive
don't you ever wonder how we survive?
well now that you're gone, the world . . .
I'll stop the whole world
I'll stop the whole world
from turning into a monster, eating us alive
don't you ever wonder how we survive?
now that you're gone, the world is ours.

bullets under mind control (viva death)
I won’t be here tomorrow
I won’t be on the road
you’ll find me out there somewhere high in the lows
hidden in the cycle
I’m going where it goes
keep the message coming on with the show
you’re one to one and counting
I know that no one knows
you’re getting everything you want and it shows
you’re starry eyed and smiling
flying coast to coast
take a perfect picture, live a life of leisure
don’t tell, your secret isn’t half as sweet
the moment dripping from your tongue
don’t say something that you might regret
keep bullets under mind control
panic in the playground
a likely overdose
take a number crashing one and zero
in brutal architecture
in sweet poetic prose
you’ll find me in the graveyard long in the rows
don’t tell, your secret isn’t half as sweet
the moment dripping from your tongue
don’t say something that you might regret
keep bullets under mind control
don’t tell, your secret isn’t half as sweet
the moment dripping from your tongue
don’t say something that you might regret
keep bullets under mind control.

let's do it (greg graffin & joan jett)
When the little bluebird
who has never said a word
starts to sing spring
when the little bluebell
at the bottom of the dell
starts to ring ding dong ding dong
when the little blue clerk
in the middle of his work
starts a tune to the moon up above
it is nature that is all
simply telling us to fall in love
and that's why birds do it, bees do it
even educated fleas do it
let's do it, let's fall in love
cold Cape Cod clams, 'gainst their wish, do it
even lazy jellyfish do it
let's do it, let's fall in love
I've heard that lizards and frogs do it
layin' on a rock
they say that roosters do it
with a doodle and cock
some Argentines, without means, do it
I hear even Boston beans do it
let's do it, let's fall in love
when the little bluebird
who has never said a word
starts to sing spring spring spring
when the little bluebell
at the bottom of the dell
starts to ring ding ding ding
when the little blue clerk
in the middle of his work
starts a tune
the most refined lady bugs do it
when a gentleman calls
moths in your rugs they do it
what's the use of moth balls
the chimpanzees in the zoos do it,
some courageous kangaroos do it
let's do it, let's fall in love
I'm sure sometimes on the sly you do it
maybe even you and I might do it
let's do it, let's fall in love.

pain (tiger army)
Regret sits heavy in your chest
until sometimes
it gets so hard to breathe
sometimes it just won't go away
and you start to feel
it'll never leave
and when you think back on those times
it seems so close
just beyond your reach
but the past vanishes like smoke
from a cigarette
in the night breeze
please stop this pain
hurt for so long
pain
hurt for so long
I've felt this way for so long
how is it that things turned out this way?
what you hold most dear
has come and gone
since the time that everything was right
and now it just feels wrong
oh so wrong
and you're still dreaming of a time
when the day will come
that was meant to be
and you're still dreaming of a way
to reach that place
that you've never been
please stop this pain
hurt for so long
pain
hurt for so long
I've felt this way for so long.
