Forgotten Years - Midnight Oil

The hardest years, the darkest years, the roarin' years, the fallen years
These should not be forgotten years
The hardest years, the wildest years, the desperate and divided years
We will remember, these should not be forgotten years

The song that most describes me is Runaway Train by Soul Asylum:

Artist: soul asylum
Song: runaway train
Album:

Called you up in the middle of the night
like a firefly without a light
you were there like a blowtorch burning
I was a key that could use a little turning
so tired that I couldn't even sleep
so many secrets I couldn't keep
promised myself I wouldn't weep
one more promise I couldn't keep
It seems no one can help me now
I'm in too deep there's no way out
this time I have really led myself astray

Chorus:
Runaway train never going back
wrong way on a one way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
somehow I'm neither here nor there

Can you help me remember how to smile
make it somehow all seem worth while
How on earth did I get so jaded
Life's mystery seems so dated

I can go where no one else can go
I know what no one else knows
here I am just drowning in the rain
with a ticket for a runaway train
and everything seems cut and dry
day and night, earth and sky
somehow I just don't believe it

Chorus

Bought a ticket for a runaway train
like a madman laughing at the rain
a little out of touch, little insane
it's just easier than dealing with the pain

Chorus

Runaway train never coming back
Runaway train is tearing up the track
Runaway train burning in my veins,
Runaway
but it always seems the same

I Go To Extremes - Billy Joel

Call me a joker, call me a fool
Right as this moment I'm totally cool
Clear as a crytal, sharp as a knife
I feel like I'm in the prime of my life
Sometimes if feels like I'm going too fast
I don't know how long this feeling will last
Maybe it's only tonight

Darling I don't know why I go to extremes
Too high or too low there ain't no in-betweens
And if I stand or I fall
It's all or nothing at all
Darling I don't know why I go to extremes

Sometimes I'm tired, sometimes I'm shot
Sometimes I don't know how much more I've got
Maybe I've headed over the hill
Maybe I've set myself up for the kill
Tell me how much do you think you can take
Until the heart in you is starting to break?
Sometimes it feels like it will

Darling I don't know why I go to extremes
Too high or too low there ain't no in-betweens
You can be sure when I'm gone
I won't be out there too long
Darling I don't know why I go to extremes

Out of the darkness, into the light
Leaving the scene of the crime
Either I'm wrong or I'm perfectly right every time
Sometimes I lie awake, night after night
Coming apart at the seams
Eager to please, ready to fight
Why do I go to extremes?

And if I stand or I fall
It's all or nothing at all

Darling I don't know why I go to extremes
Too high or too low there ain't no in-betweens
And if I stand or I fall
It's all or nothing at all
Darling I don't know why I go to extremes

No I don't know why I go to extremes
Too high or too low there ain't no in-betweens
You can be sure when I'm gone
I won't be out there too long
Darling I don't know why I go to extremes

Our Lady Peace - Innocent
the verses and a little bit of the chorus.

Oh, Johnny wishes he was famous
Spends his time alone
In the basement
With Lennon and Cobain
A guitar and a stereo
While he wishes he
Could escape this
It all seems so contagious
Not to be yourself and faceless
In a song that has no soul

[Chorus:]
I remember feeling low
I remember losing hope
I remember all the feelings...

Oh, Tina’s losing faith in what she knows
Hates her music
Hates all of her clothes
Thinks of surgery
And a new nose
Every calorie is a war
While she wishes she
Was a dancer
And that she'd never
Heard of cancer
She wishes God would give her
Some answers
And make her feel beautiful

"Life" Our lady Peace

How many times have you been pushed around?
Was anybody there?
Does anybody care?
How many time have your friends let you down?
Was anybody there?
Did anybody stare?

How many time have your friends let you down?
Just open up your heart
Just open up your mind
How many times has your faith slipped away?
Well, is anybody safe?
Does anybody pray?

Oh, Life is waiting for you
So messed up, but we're alive
Oh, Life is waiting for you
So messed up, but we'll survive

How many days have you just slept away?
Is everybody high?
Is everyone afraid?
How many times have you wished you were strong?
Have they ever seen your heart?
Have they ever seen your pain?

Oh, Life is waiting for you
So messed up, but we're alive
Oh, Life is waiting for you
So messed up, but we'll survive

She gets high
She gets lost
She gets drowned by the cost
Twice a day, every week, not a lie

She gets high
She gets lost
She gets drowned by the cost
Twice a day, every week, not a lie

Oh, Life is waiting for you
So messed up, but we're alive
Oh, Life is waiting for you
So messed up, but we'll survive
All messed up, but we'll survive

Brand New - Sowing Season (Yeah)

Was losing all my friends.
Was losing them to drinking and to driving.
Was losing all my friends, but I got them back.

I am on the mend.
At least now I can say that I am trying.
And I hope you will forget things I still lack.

Yeah. Yeah.

Is it in you now,
To barely hear the truth that you have spoken?
Twisted up by knaves,
To make a trap for fools.

Is it in you now,
To watch the things you gave your life to broken?
And stoop and build them up with warn out tools.

Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah, yeah. (Oh.)
Yeah.

Nothing gets so bad,
A whisper from your father couldn't fix it.
Your whisper's like a bridge, he's a river span.

Take all that you have,
And turn it into something you were missing.
Somebody threw that brick, shattered all your plans.

Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah, yeah. (Oh.)
Yeah.

Time to get the seeds into the cold ground.
It takes a while to grow anything,
Before it's coming to the end, yeah.

Before you put my body in the cold ground,
Take some time to warm it with your hand,
Before it's coming to an end, yeah.

It's coming to an end, yeah.
It's coming to an end, yeah.

Do you miss the blend,
Colors she left in your black and white field?
Do you feel condemned just being there?

I am not your friend.
I am just a man who knows how to feel.

I am not your friend.
I'm not your lover.
I'm not your family.

Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah, yeah. (Oh.)
Yeah.

Time to get the seeds into the cold ground.
It takes a while to grow anything,
Before it's coming to the end, yeah.

Where has that old friend gone?
Lost in a February song
Tell him it won't be long
'Til he opens his eyes, opens his eyes
Where is that simple day,
Before colors broke into shades?
And how did I ever fade
Into this life, into this life?

And I never want to let you down
Forgive me if I slip away
When all that I've known is lost and found
I promise you I, I'll come back to you one day

Morning is waking up
And sometimes it's more than just enough
When all that you need to love
Is in front of your eyes
It's in front of your eyes

--

February Song
Josh Groban

Out Of Control - Hoobastank

I've done everything as you say, I followed your rules without question
I thought it would help me see things clearly
But instead of helping me to see, I look around and it's like I'm blinded
I'm spinning out of control...out of control
I'm spinning out of control...out of control

Where should I go? What should I do?
I don't understand what you want from me
'Cause I don't know if I can trust you
Or all of the things you've said to me
And I may never know the answer to this endless mystery
Where should I go? What should I do?
I don't understand what you want from me

I feel like I'm spinning out of control, try to focus but everything's twisted
And all along I thought you would be there
To let me know I'm not alone but in fact that's exactly what I was
I'm spinning out of control...out of control
I'm spinning out of control...out of control

All alone and spinning out of control. out of control......

Conversations With My 13 Year Old Self - P!nk

Conversations with my 13 year old self
Conversations with my 13 year old self

You're angry, I know this
The world couldn't care less
You're lonely, I feel this
And you wish you were the best

No teachers no guidance
You always walk alone
You're crying at night when nobody else is home

Come over here and let me hold your hand and hug you darling.
I promise you that it won't always feel this bad.
There are so many things I want to say to you.
You're the girl I used to be
You're the heartbroken 13 year old me

You're laughing, but you're hiding
God I know that trick too well
You forget that I've been you
And now I'm just the shell

I promise, I love you
Everything will work out fine
Don't try to grow up yet
Oh give it some time
The pain you feel is real you're not asleep but it's a nightmare
But you can wake up anytime

Don't lose your passion or the fighter that's inside of you
You're the girl I used to be
The pissed off complicated 13 year old me

Conversations with my 13 year old self
Conversations with my 13 year old self

Until we meet again, oh I wish you well
Oh I wish you well, little girl until we meet again
Oh I wish you well, little girl
I wish you well until we meet again
My little 13 year old me

triggers abuse, death...

Goodbye Earl - Dixie Chicks

Mary Anne and Wanda were the best of friends
All through their high school years
Both members of the 4H Club
Both active in the FFA
After graduation Mary Anne went out lookin' for a bright new world
Wanda looked all around this town and all she found was Earl

Well it wasn't two weeks after she got married that
Wanda started gettin' abused
She put on dark glasses and long sleeved blouses
And make-up to cover a bruise
Well she finally got the nerve to file for divorce
She let the law take it from there
But Earl walked right through that restraining order
And put her in intensive care

Right away Mary Anne flew in from Atlanta
On a red eye midnight flight
She held Wanda's hand as they worked out a plan
And it didn't take 'em long to decide

That Earl had to die
Goodbye Earl
Those black-eyed peas
They tasted all right to me Earl
You're feelin' weak
Why don't you lay down and sleep Earl
Ain't it dark
Wrapped up in that tarp Earl

The cops came by to bring Earl in
They searched the house high and low
Then they tipped their hats and said "thank you ladies if you hear from him let us know"

Well the weeks went by and
Spring turned to Summer
And Summer faded into Fall
And it turns out he was a missing person who nobody missed at all

So the girls bought some land and a roadside stand
Out on Highway 109
They sell Tennessee ham and strawberry jam
And they don't lose any sleep at night 'cause

Earl had to die
Goodbye Earl
We need a break
Let's go out to the lake Earl
We'll pack a lunch
And stuff you in the trunk Earl
Well is that all right
Good Let's go for a ride
Earl Hey

Discovering the Waterfront - Silverstein

I will promise myself I won't care
distracting myself from your stare
and I've seen this mistake once before
with your games I will never fall for
I've hung up my guns
I won't kill again

I won't forget you (I won't forget you)
I'm not gonna let you win (I'm not gonna...)
but I'm tired of lying
tired of fighting you
and it's not gonna change

You ask for my heart
you know that I'm down
but not the way you lie to me,
you tear it all apart and beg for me to stay
I've sailed off to sea (sailed off to sea),
I'm not coming back

I won't forget you (I won't forget you)
I'm not gonna let you win (I'm not gonna...)
but I'm tired of lying
tired of fighting you
and it's not gonna change

Counting down
Make that sound
And you know it makes no sense
Counting down
Till you mess around
And I know you can't ever change
When I'm trembling,
Thrown overboard
And I'm ready to relive the past
Counting down
Make that sound
Break the silence

Pretend it's not forever,
I'll pull myself together
I'll say that I'll forget her,
I'll breathe.
And I'll say she never hurt me,
And look at it as learning,
And laugh about the good and the bad.
Because I won't live forever
We don't belong together,
I know I'll feel better,
One day when I can make it through.

I won't forget you (I won't forget you)
I'm not gonna let you win (I'm not gonna...)
but I'm tired of lying
tired of fighting you
and it's not gonna change

I won't forget you (Counting down...)
I'm not gonna let you win (Counting down...)
but I'm tired of lying
tired of fighting you
and it's not gonna change

There's No Easy Way - Leo Kay, Sung By Roch Voisine

There's no easy way
To fix a broken heart
When you don't know how
Or where to start
Sometimes I miss you girl/boy
I guess I always will
Cause when I think of you
My heart stands still

And there's no easy way
There's no easy way
There's no easy way
To say goodbye

Are you happy now
I heard you found someone
Is he/she good to you
Did your dreams come true
I hope you understand
I couldn't tell you then
But if it's not too late
Can we still be friends
Cause...

You know I tried a hundred times
To walk away from you
You know I shed a million tears
What else could I do

I never could explain
How I felt inside
And 'cause I didn't try
I never realized

That there's no easy way
There's no easy way
There's no easy way
To say goodbye

Creature - Atreyu

Go, run away in distress
try to hide from what's
creeping and crawling and stabbing within
try to deny the turmoil inside
if you fight yourself hard enough
you'll never win any ounce of serenity
or a calm hope at best (or a calm hope at best)
can leave you heaving on the floor
gasping for breath, are you gasping for breath?
to be left on the floor gasping for breath

you're either the person you are
or the person you're trying to be
don't let the outside sway too far
from where you want to be

and at any cruel moment's notice
you can ruin the best
as your body is brutally pressed
against the confines of your tense flesh
and if you close your eyes tight enough (then none of the bad can get in)
and if you close your eyes tight enough (then none of the light can get in)
the light can't get in (the light can't get in)

Boom. you scream as the light hits you
it radiates throughout your whole soul
Boom. the pain is clarity, it cleanses
and if it still fucking hurts
then you still fucking know that you are still alive
that you are still in control, if only take hold
Boom. the day with both hands, a death grip
and a good chance to outlive your past
are you living free? (are you living free?)

I Love You And Hate You - OMD

I love you and hate you
At the same time
Really don't need you
Is that such a crime

I wouldn't walk down a road to say goodbye
I couldn't give you up to another guy/girl
I wouldn't do anything that you asked me to
But you know that it's true
I still love you

I want you to help me
To make up my mind
I need you to hear me
At least some of the time
I wouldn't blame you if you had to run away
I couldn't stand to live like this another day

But I would sell my soul to have you back today
But you know that it's true
I still love you

I wouldn't blame you if you had to run away
I couldn't stand to live this like this another day
But I would sell my soul to have you back today
But you know that it's true
I still love you

Oh Oh and you know that it's true
I still love you
Yeah Yeah and you know
That it's true
I still love you

mad world - Finch(cover)

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow

And I find it kinda funny
I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very mad world mad world

Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me

And I find it kinda funny
I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very mad world ... mad world
Enlarging your world
Mad world

Honestly Ok-Dido

I just want to feel safe in my own skin,
I just want to be happy again
I just want to feel deep in my own world
But I'm so lonely
I don't even want to be with myself anymore
On a different day,
if I was safe in my own skin,
then I wouldn't feel lost and
so frightened
But this is today and I'm lost in my own skin
And I'm so lonely
I don't even want to be with myself anymore
I just want to feel safe in my own skin,
I just want to be happy again.

What song describes how you're feeling?
