I'll Never Cry - Alice Cooper

If there is a tear on my face
It makes me shiver to the bones
It shakes me, Babe
It's just a heartache that got in my eye
And you know I never cry ,I never cry
Sometimes I drink more than I need
Until the TV's dead and gone
I may be lonely
But I'm never alone
And the night may pass me bay
But I'm never alone
And the night may pass me by
But I'll never cry
Take away, take away my eyes
Sometimes I'd rather be blind
Break a heart, break a heart of stone
Open it up but don't you leave it alone
'Cause that's all I got to give you
Believe me Babe, it ain't been used
My heart's a virgin, it never been tried
And you know I'll never cry
And you know I'll never cry
And you know I'll never cry
Never cry, I'll never cry
Break a heart, break a heart of stone
Open it up but don't you leave it alone
'Cause that's all I got to give you
Believe me Babe, it ain't been used
My heart's a virgin, it never been tried
And you know I'll never cry
Never cry
I'll never cry

Walk - Pantera

You want in to get under my skin
And call yourself a friend
I've got more friends like you
What do I do?

[Pre-chorus:]
Is there no standard anymore?
What it takes, who I am, where I've been, belong?
You can't be something you're not
Be yourself, by yourself
Stay away from me
A lesson learned in life
Known from the dawn of time

[Chorus:]
Respect, walk
What did you say?
Respect, walk
Are you talking to me?
Are you talking to me?

Run your mouth when I'm not around
It's easy to achieve
You cry to weak friends that sympathize
Can you hear the violins playing your song?
Those same friends tell me your every word.

[Pre-chorus:]
Is there no standard anymore?
What it takes, who I am, where I've been, belong?
You can't be something you're not.
Be yourself, by yourself
Stay away from me.
A lessoned learned in life
Known from the dawn of time

[Chorus:]
Respect, walk
What did you say?
Respect, walk
Are you talking to me?
Respect, walk
What did you say?
Respect, walk
Are you talking to me?
Are you talking to me?

No way, punk

[Chorus:]
Respect, walk
What did you say?
Respect, walk
Are you talking to me?
Respect, walk
What did you say?
Respect, walk
Are you talking to me?
Are you talking to me?

Walk on home, boy!

-----------

This one goes out to my old friend Jake, ol' jake used to run his mouth about everyone when they weren't around. That guy needs a long walk and needs to learn respect. I don't hang around him anymore.

Olde English 800 -The Amity Affliction

When your aspirations crumble at the feet of your tormentors
When your jaw feels like it's breaking on the cold, hard tile floor
When you're holding onto something that does far more harm than good
Well then you've reached the pits of hell, and there in hell you'll find the steel
To smash your skin until it's calloused, and grind your teeth down to the bone
To tear your tongue out from its shelter, and you bleed out all alone
And when we get there, we'll tread heavy through the boneyards and the filth
We'll grace the presence of the vultures and spit fire of the gods
We'll both sit in our skin and hate the places we have known
When your back feels like it's breaking and your skin has turned to stone
And when you're standing in the fire, and you're wishing to go back
Well then you've reached the pits of hell, you've reached the pits of hell

I took this journey through the mirror
Took a chance to take my time
Just to watch the cold, hard steel of burden
Come and break my heart and spine

I took a blade, a glass, a noose
And then I smashed my mind in two
With a bottle of pills and a notion that I
Could drink my problems dead
I reached the cold pits of hell
And then I smashed my mind in two
And dragged my cold heart through the snow
And felt the coldest burn of all the grief I've come to know
All the grief I've come to know

I took this journey through the mirror
Took a chance to take my time
Just to watch the cold, hard steel of burden
Come and break my heart and spine

I took this journey through the mirror
Took a chance to take my time
Just to watch the cold, hard steel of burden
Come and break my heart and spine

I've got a story here to tell you
Best you listen or go cold
'Cause if you choose the path I've chosen,
Chances are you won't grow old

Alkaline Trio - Snake Oil Tanker
(Just so you know where I really got my name)

This time you've dug yourself an anchor
Too heavy to move ahead with
Resembling a faker, charming snake oil tankers
Don't let them strike you down
I know that you wish I was dead
I know 'cause you told me last weekend
And Christmas has never felt colder
I've never felt colder
This time you've dug yourself an anchor
Too heavy to move ahead with
Resembling a faker, charming snake oil tankers
Don't let them strike you down
I know that you wish I was dead
I know 'cause you told me last weekend
And Christmas has never felt colder
I haven't felt colder since

Mile Markers - The Dead Weather

The cold white flamingo wins at black market bingo
That we used to play, but we don't play no more
We used to travel playing hotel games
Eating truck stop dinners with Christian names
Pointing out porn in payphones pinned into the core
Now I just count mile markers between your door and my door

Big boys, bad girls
Grind their teeth in stereo
Big boys, bad girls
Grind their teeth in stereo

I creep, I don't move in the breeze like I used to
I bend backwards at the elbows and the knees
The silver tap is spewing crap and I'm halfway round the world
Flatlined in a space between my teeth

I churned my milk and honey, I lost track of all the money
My family rescued some other stray dog
When it rains, I open windows, I just lay there
I just lay getting waterlogged, trying to get along

Big boys, bad girls
Grind their teeth in stereo
Big boys, bad girls
Grind their teeth in stereo

The cold white flamingo wins at black market bingo
That we used to play, but we don't play no more
We used to travel playing hotel games
Eating truck stop dinners with Christian names
Pointing out porn in payphones pinned into the core
Now I just count mile markers between your door and my door

I creep, I don't move in the breeze like I used to
I bend backwards at the elbows and the knees
The silver tap is spewing crap and I'm halfway 'round the world
I'm flatlined in a space between my teeth

I churned my milk and honey, I lost track of all the money
So my family rescued some other stray dog
When it rains, I open windows, let it all in
I just lay getting waterlogged

To A Poet - First Aid Kit

And you said "don't give me nothing
you don't wanna lose"
I said darling I'll give you everything I've got
If I want, I'm to choose
Then I got on a plane and flew
Far away from you
Though unwillingly I left and it was so, so hard to do

The streets here at home
Have rapidly filled up with the whitest of snow
And they don't make no excuse for themselves
And there's no need I know

Though I miss you more than I can take
And I will surely break
And every morning that I wake
God, it's the same
But there's nothing more to it
I just get through it
Oh there's nothing more to it
I just get through it

It always takes me by surprise
How dark it gets this time of year
And how apparent it all becomes that you're not close
Not even near
No matter how many times I tell myself
I have to be sincere
I have a hard time standing up
And facing those fears

But Frank put it best when he said
You can't plan on the heart
Those words keep me on my feet
When I think I might just fall apart

Though I miss you more than I can take
And I will surely break
Snd every morning that I wake
God, it's the same
But there's nothing more to it
I just get through it
Oh there's nothing more to it
I just get through it

And so I ask where are you now
Just when I needed you?
I won't ask again because I know there's
Nothing we can do
Not now, darling
You know it's true
 
New Day - Hollywood Undead

So anybody froze in the alley of scars
Mama, what you think you wasn't swimming with sharks
You think I'm evil now keep them kids in the dark
I got a gallon of gasoline and a chestful of hearts

So you hide behind them paper and them records that made me
Immunization, on papers I'm 18
Selling some rights for this Johnny come lately
Like fate in some bars, you think that ****ing gon' change me?

From the bottom of bottles and it's right back to the top
It's the space in between where I keep getting caught
Yeah, I listen to these demons way more often than not
So I'll just keep on singing 'cause I don't wanna talk

'Cause I know, I know I'm not right
But I've got my whole life
And that's alright with me

It's a new day! A new day!
You have loved yourself and no one else
In a new day! A new day!
It's a broken life; what's left inside?
It's a new day! A new day!
You have loved yourself and no one else
It's a new day! How do we change?
With a broken life; what's left inside?

Today is my dream but tomorrow I choose
To stay awake and unseen, or sleep in oceans of blue
It's true, the devil in me; it's like speech you the freak
They say my tongue turns black every time I breathe

Pretend I'm just a thief, I'm not allowed to preach
But you can hear my words as they bleed through the streets
To underachieve has never been a disease
You know, we can burn the earth with kerosene and a dream

The lynch of the mob and the powers that beat
They see me as a threat to the sheep, I'm looking for meat
I can see that light and feel the beat of the drums
I ain't finished yet, I wanna cry when they come

'Cause I know, I know I'm not right
But I've got my whole life
And that's alright with me

It's a new day! A new day!
You have loved yourself and no one else
In a new day! A new day!
It's a broken life; what's left inside?
It's a new day! A new day!
You have loved yourself and no one else
It's a new day! How do we change?
With a broken life; what's left inside?

So where do we go when there's nowhere left to crawl?
And what do we do when we thought we knew it all?
Now we're surrounded by a world of lonely people
Am I the last one here, or the last one left to fall?

It's a new day! A new day!
You have loved yourself and no one else
In a new day! A new day!
It's a broken life; what's left inside?
It's a new day! A new day!
You have loved yourself and no one else
It's a new day! How do we change?
With a broken life; what's left inside?

Black Sabbath: Iron Man

I am iron man!

Has he lost his mind?
Can he see or is he blind?
Can he walk at all,
Or if he moves will he fall?
Is he alive or dead?
Has he thoughts within his head?
We'll just pass him there
Why should we even care?
He was turned to steel
In the great magnetic field
Where he traveled time
For the future of mankind
Nobody wants him
He just stares at the world
Planning his vengeance
That he will soon unfold
Now the time is here
For Iron Man to spread fear
Vengeance from the grave
Kills the people he once saved
Nobody wants him
They just turn their heads
Nobody helps him
Now he has his revenge
Heavy boots of lead
Fills his victims full of dread
Running as fast as they can
Iron Man lives again!

City Escape ~ from Sonic Adventure 2

Rolling around at the speed of sound
Got places to go, gotta follow my rainbow
Can't stick around, have to keep movin' on
Guess what lies ahead, only one way to find out

Must keep on movin' ahead
No time for guessin', follow my plan instead
Trusting in what you can't see
Take my lead, I'll set you free

Follow me - set me free - trust me
And we will escape from the city
I'll make it through, follow -
Follow me - set me free - trust me
And we will escape from the city
I'll make it through, prove it to you
Follow me

Danger is lurking around every turn
Trust your feelings, gotta live and learn
I know with some luck that I'll make it through
Got no other options, only one things to do

I don't care what lies ahead
No time for guessin', follow my plan instead
Find that next stage no matter what that may be
Take my lead, I'll set you free

Follow me - set me free - trust me
And we will escape from the city
I'll make it through, follow -
Follow me - set me free - trust me
And we will escape from the city
I'll make it through, prove it to you
Follow me

Follow me
I'll make it through,

Oh, yeah.

Atom Bomb Baby: The Five Stars [1957]

Got a doll, baby, I love her so
Nothing else like her anywhere you go
Man, she's anything but calm
A regular pint sized atom bomb

Atom bomb baby, little atom bomb
I want her in my wigwam
She's just the way I want her to be
A million times hotter than TNT

Atom bomb baby loaded with power
Radioactive as a TV tower
A nuclear fission in her soul
Loves with electronic control

Atom bomb baby, little atom bomb
I want her in my wigwam
She's just the way I want her to be
A million times hotter than TNT

Atom bomb baby, boy she can start
One of those chain reactions in my heart
A big explosion, big and loud
Mushrooms me right up on a cloud

Atom bomb baby, little atom bomb
I want her in my wigwam
She's just the way I want her to be
A million times hotter than TNT

Atom bomb baby sweet as a plum
Carries more wallop than uranium
When she kisses, there's no hitch
Zero power, she turns on the switch

Atom bomb baby, little atom bomb
I want her in my wigwam
She's just the way I want her to be
A million times hotter than TNT

Atom bomb baby, little atom bomb
I want her in my wigwam
She's just the way I want her to be
A million times hotter than TNT
Atom bomb baby, little atom bomb!
