I've edited things down to lyric excerpts, for long songs.
The song titles will link to youtube videos, though!



Hey Look Ma, I Made It - Panic! At the Disco
All my life, been hustling
And tonight is my appraisal
'Cause I'm a hooker sellin' songs
And my pimp's a record label
This world if full demons,
Stocks and bible traitors
So I do the deed get up and leave
I climber and a sadist, yeah

Are you ready for the sequel?
Ain't you ready for the latest?
Ain't got enough evil
I'm gonna be the greatest
In a golden cathedral
I'll be praying for the faithless
And if you lose, boo-huu

Hey look ma, I made it
Hey look ma, I made it
Everything's comin' up aces, aces
If it's a dream, don't wake me, don't wake me
I said hey look ma, I made it

Friends are happy for me
Or they're honey-suckle phonies
Then they celebrate my medals
Or they wanna take my trophies
Some are loyal soldiers
All the thrones are rosy
And if you never know who you can trust
Then trust me you'll me lonely, oh

Nobody Praying For Me - Seether
I'm a whisper lost upon wind
I'm the ember that'll burn you down
I'm the water that'll drown you
I'm a star that's just a black hole now
I'm a terrifying danger
I'm a fruit decaying on the ground
I'm a swallower of anger
I'm the tree that falls and makes no sound
I make no sound…

(Chorus)
'Cause if I stand up, I'll break my bones
And everybody loves to see a fall unfold
Ain't nobody giving up, 'cause nobody gives a fuck
Stand up and break my bones
Everybody wants what they just can't hold
There's nobody praying for me

I am fungus in the forest
I'm a lizard with a poison tongue
I'm the child in the manger
I'm the one who sacrificed his son
Rust is showing on my armor
I am wheezing like an old man done
I'm a product of my anger
I'm the bullet in a loaded gun

(Chorus x2)
There's nobody praying for me
There's nobody praying for me

Could Have Been Me - The Struts
Don't wanna live as an untold story
Rather go out in a blaze of glory
I can't hear you, I don't fear you
I'll live now cause the bad die last
Dodging bullets with your broken past
I can't hear you, I don't fear you now

Wrapped in your regret
What a waste of blood and sweat
Oh oh oh

(Bridge)
I wanna taste love and pain
Wanna feel pride and shame
I don't wanna take my time
Don't wanna waste one line
I wanna live better days
Never look back and say
Could have been me
It could have been me
Yeah

Don't wanna live as an unsung melody
I'd rather listen to the silence telling me
I can't hear you, I won't fear you
Don't wanna wake up on monday morning
The thought of work's getting my skin crawling
I can't fear you, I don't hear you now

Wrapped in your regret
What a waste of blood and sweat
Oh oh oh

(Essentially, Bridge x3)

Through The Fire and Flames - Dragonforce
On a cold winter morning, in the time before the light
In flames of death's eternal reign we ride towards the fight
When the darkness has fallen down, and the times are tough all right
The sound of evil laughter falls around the world tonight

Fighting hard, fighting on for the steel, through the wastelands evermore
The scattered souls will feel the hell bodies wasted on the shores
On the blackest plains in hell's domain, we watch them as they go
In fire and pain, now once again we know

So now we fly ever free
We're free before the thunderstorm
On towards the wilderness our quest carries on
Far beyond the sundown, far beyond the moonlight
Deep inside our hearts and all our souls

So far away we wait for the day
For the lives all so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames we carry on

As the red day is dawning
And the lightning cracks the sky
They'll raise their hands to the heavens above
With resentment in their eyes
Running back from the mid-morning light
There's a burning in my heart
We're banished from a time in a fallen land
To a life beyond the stars

In your darkest dreams see to believe
Our destiny is time
And endlessly we'll all be free tonight

And on the wings of a dream, so far beyond reality
All alone in desperation, now the time has gone
Lost inside you'll never find, lost within my own mind
Day after day this misery must go on

So far away we wait for the day
For the lives all so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames we carry on

Now here we stand with their blood on our hands
We fought so hard now can we understand
I'll break the seal of this curse if I possibly can
For freedom of every man

So far away we wait for the day
For the lives all so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames we carry on

How You Remind Me - Nickelback
Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing
Tired of living like a blind man
I'm sick of sight without a sense of feeling

And this is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
For handing you a heart worth breaking
And I've been wrong, I've been down,
Been to the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head
Scream "are we having fun yet?"

Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no
Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no

It's not like you didn't know that
I said I love you and I swear I still do
And it must have been so bad
Cause living with me must have damn near killed you

In Front Of Me - Infected Mushroom
Why can't I see what's in front of me?
Why can't I see what's in front of me?

I see the doors that I can't open
Adding locks from time to time
When it opens something blocks me
And I'm asking myself why?
Did I take the step I wanted
Was it just a state of mind?
I feel sorry for myself
Every time I close my eyes

And I fall into a hole
And I can take no more...
(x4)

Why can't I see what's in front of me?
Why can't I see what's in front of me?

What's behind the door I wonder?
Must be brighter than my past
Will I feel a little different
When I take myself across?
Was it really worth the journey?
Was it just a foolish task?
I feel sorry for myself
When I open up my eyes...

And I fall into a hole
And I can take no more
(x4)

Fuels the Comedy - Korn feat. Kill The Noise
Oh my God! I'm feeling crazy man
What could it be?
As I walk into this place everyone's staring at me
Somehow I feel I've got a fucked up disease
As I part the seas
Fingers come out pointing at me
Do I make you laugh?
Do you think I'm funny? Ha ha
Or funny queer?
Bitch, get outta here
Let me make myself clear
I don't give a fuck
All you people can suck my motherfuckin' dick!

(Chorus)
What's with the hostility?
Why is it so provoked?
You're living in a fantasy that's how you cope
Go ahead, kick the shit out of me
It just fuels the comedy
Feel that you're superior
I feel your just plain absurd
Ridiculous vanity that is blurred
Go ahead, kick the shit out of me
It just fuels the comedy

Oh my god! This shit is crazy man
Look at this scene as I watch these
Stupid people act like they are machines
They should really all drop their knees
Oh, the jealousy that's the one thing I guarantee
Do I make you laugh?
Do you think I'm funny? Ha ha
Or funny queer shit? Get out of here
Let me make myself clear
I don't give a fuck
All you people can suck my motherfuckin' dick!

(Chorus x2)

She Wants Me Dead - Cazzette
Woke up this morning with a gun to my head
Somebody help me, she wants me dead
Woke up this morning with the devil in my bed
In the air, everywhere, in my maze and in my head

She wants me dead, dead dead, dead, dead, dead dead, dead, dead, d-dead
(a lot)

Woke up this morning with a gun to my head
Brotha' should have told me she want me dead
Without a warning, not a clue, without a sound
In your house, out of bounds, you can run but you can't hide

She wants me dead, dead dead, dead, dead, dead dead, dead, dead, d-dead
(again, a lot)

Into Your Heart - Trevor Something
Now I know that your hearts been damaged
I feed you drinks till you cant manage
It's just so I can take advantage
And in the morning I just vanish

I'm gonna use your body
I'm gonna make you love me from the start
I'm gonna put this bullet right into your heart
(x2)

I know that love has left you jaded
And thats why your here getting wasted
Let's go to your place and get naked
Now spread your legs and let me taste it

I'm gonna use your body
I'm gonna make you love me from the start
I'm gonna put this bullet right into your heart
(x2)

Momma Sed - Puscifer
Wake up, son of mine
Momma got something to tell you
Changes come
Life will have it's way
With your pride, son
Take it like a man

Hang on, son of mine
A storm is blowing up your horizon

Changes come
Keep your dignity
Take the high road
Take it like a man

Listen up, son of mine
Momma got something to tell you
All about growing pains
Life will pound away
Where the light don't shine, son
Take it like a man

Suck it up, son of mine
Thunder blowing up your horizon

Changes come (Changes come)
Keep your dignity (Keep your dignity)
Take the high road (Take the high road)
Take it like a man (Take it like a man)

Momma said like the rain (This, too, shall pass)
Like a kidney stone (This, too, shall pass)
It's just a broken heart, son
This pain will pass away

Simultaneous - Puscifer
So, the first time I saw him was at the annual city festival, at the end of the plaza, on, uh, "Punker Hill", also known as "The Island of Misfits". Um, It's like a mound of black leather and army surplus jackets and boots and spiky egg-white hairdos and mohawks and second generation Exploited and Minor Threat and Sex Pistols patches and stuff. Basically a haven for the misunderstood punk-y, rock-y, goth-y, "Woe is me" types

And, uh, there he was, right in the middle of it all. Um, oversized yellow form-rubber cowboy hat; pink plastic Toys-R-Us pistols and holster. Off-white dashiki, uh, shirt, and tattered bell bottom jeans, leather feet, Raleigh cigarette finger stains. And he was an island within an island, and I just, kinda had to know more

So, I, uhh, I sat with him for hours just trying to get a bearing on his beautiful insanity. Every third inquiry was met with, you know, an eloquent but unusual response, and, you know, the subsequent exchange, it kinda warranted continuing the conversation, because he was, he was interesting. Uh, 'course the other, the other reason my efforts where dismissed, while he took in the constant flow of the festival crowd, all around us

A raging river of multi cultural river of music, art, food, families, uh, all of this with his Walkman at full volume. I think it was Foreigner, playing through the headphones. And I asked maybe, you know "Hey maybe you could turn that down, so we can talk?", and he replied "Can you hear me"? and I said "Yes", he said "Well, then it's fine". He never really pretended, not once, to be able to organize all of this chaos that was going on around us. Uh, he just unapologetically chose which pieces to focus on

Well, you know, after a few hours we seemed to have found our stride, found our rhythm, kinda settled into it, and we're having these intermittent conversations, uh, flipping back and forth between the chaos and the focus. And then, just kinda out of nowhere, he seemed to become a little unsettled and disturbed. And I asked him what was wrong and he just blurted out "Peanuts parents and syrup", and then he looked at me like I wondered what that means, and then he said, "You have any, do you have any batteries?"

So, basically his, his walkman was running out of power, and he just needed batteries, so before I could ever turn and ask one of our fellow punkers for some double-A's, he grabbed my face with both hands, and then for the first time in the entire conversation, he, gave me his complete focus and attention, completely present, and calmly said "We will never know world peace, until three people can simultaneously look each other straight in the eye"

Should the oceans rise
Should the sky come falling down
Should the islands tremble beneath us, see our better nature blossom

Should the sun rain fire
Should Hell on Earth freeze over
And our enemies wait hungry
See our better nature feed them
Should the sun rain fire
Should Hell on Earth freeze over
And our enemies wait hungry
See our better nature feed and calm them

Find a way through, around, or over

Island of the Misfit Boy - Front Porch Step
I love to sleep, cause I pretend that I'm dead
But I hate waking up cause it's hard to forget
That I've lost all control of this life that I've held so dear.
And I wait for the bus but I'm not on the bench,
I'm just spread across the ground making friends with cement,
Hoping that the bus won't miss me when it comes my way.

Well I made a few jokes but they said they weren't funny.
I tried to force a smile but they said it was ugly.
I tried to make a friend but no one was a friend to me.
Poured my heart to a girl and it went on the floor,
And I asked her what she wanted and she said she wanted more.
I tried to find a lover, all I found was an enemy.

(Chorus)
Well I stand in front of the mirror and look at myself.
And I don't make a sound but my eyes scream out help
And I start to struggle to hold myself back,
From thrusting my head straight through the fucking glass
And I'm tired of falling for girls that don't care,
And breaking my back to try to make them aware
That I'm more than depressed and their time won't be wasted
But I am just a broken boy that no one wants to play with.

Now I'm lost in this hole and I'm sure I am stuck
And I can't run away 'cause I'm lazy as fuck.
So I sit on the floor as I gather my thoughts
And they're full of broken promises that only piss me off.
Well I lost control when I was only a boy,
The world taught me angst when I deserved joy.
Now I'm breaking down as I struggle to breathe,
Cause I believe in a god who won't believe in me.

(Chorus)
