Nine Inch Nails - Hurt (The Downward Spiral)


I hurt myself today
to see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
the only thing that's real
the needle tears a hole
the old familiar sting
try to kill it all away
but I remember everything
what have I become?
my sweetest friend
everyone I know
goes away in the end
you could have it all
my empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
I wear my crown of shit
on my liar's chair
full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
beneath the stain of time
the feeling disappears
you are someone else
I am still right here
what have I become?
my sweetest friend
everyone I know
goes away in the end
you could have it all
my empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
if I could start again
a million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way


Love Spit Love - How Soon Is Now (The Craft Soundtrack)


I am the sun
and I'm the air
of a shyness
that is criminally vulgar
I am the sun and air
of nothing inparticular

you shut your mouth
how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
just like everybody else does

I am the sun
and I'm the air
of a shyness
that is criminally vulgar
I am the sun and air
of nothing inparticular

you shut your mouth
how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
just like everybody else does

there's a club if you'd like to go
you could meet someone who really loves you
so you go and you stand on your own
and you leave on your own
and you go home and you cry and you want to die

when you say it's gonna happen now
when exactly do you mean?
see i've already waited too long
and all my hope is gone

AFI - Narrative of Soul Against Soul (Black Sails in the Sunset)

To the wounded
I have seen the self image they've forced you to reduce to shattered glass,
with the only remaining value lying in its jagged edges.
But the few who warrant waking for await their recognition.
No fear of death but with fear of life, your weakness kills everyone.
So live. Angels for everyone. For no lack of searching I can't seem to find one.
Angels in everyone. What of all their promises? Can't seem to find much more than lies.
Angels in anyone. A permanent solution to a temporary problem.
Before I'd lay me down to rest, I'd throw away everything to live

Boy Hits Car - A Letter From Prison (Self-Titled)

Sometimes I wonder torn between my heart,
Torn between my heart and my mind.
And I feel my body to see if I'm in,
If I'm in tune with what I find.
But I don't know how to feel.
And I don't know what to feel,
Anymore.

Anymore.

Wanna be the decision-cision
Kill free things. I feel a difference inside.
I'm a boy who's so sick of searching.
Maybe there's a heaven nearby.
So should I let these thoughts out,
Or should I let you in?
Its so easy to be alone.
Look within.
Will I find home?

I just don't know
How to feel.

Feel
How to feel
How to feel
Feel

Feeling so afraid like I am stuck here,
Like I am stuck here and can't move.
I like to watch the sunsets lighting the warm colors.
The warmth it blinds the truth.
But I don't know how to feel, don't.
And I don't know what to feel anymore.

I keep on hurting myself.
Tearing off the skin, I let it burn at the touch.
What I've lived, what I've learned
Though it may be the truth, truth it hurts.
When we have something inside that no motherfucker will touch.
No I won't think like you.
If I did what am I trying to prove?

I just don't know...
I just don't know how to feel.
I just don't know what to feel anymore.

Hole - Loaded (Pretty On The Inside)


The black lung coat and your little crown. That's the crown that you get for falling down. Hey baby, let me look in your eyes. I see you staring in a weird red light.
The pump the grind that I call my head. The suck milk nebula I use instead.
The sacred clot and the sweet cream udder. The weird red light that pulls you under.
Open my scar, let out my stars. Slut me open and suck my scars.
And now, I'm loaded. You know I'm loaded.
Your black coat and your little crown. That's the crown that you get when you fall down. Hey baby, won't you wave goodbye? As you go up the fucking weird red light.
The rotten sun spits on your rawhide, cos you dance to the song of a suicide.
He only laughs when you try to hide, to the rat poison daughter of a suicide.
Slut me open and suck my scars.
You better open your eyes when I come down.
And now, I'm loaded. You know I'm loaded.
Don't blush when I rip you open. Don't blush when I rip you open.
Hey baby, let me look in your eyes, as you go off into your weird red light.
The pump the grind that I call my head. The suck milk nebula I use instead.
The sweet cream clot and the sick milk udder. The weird red light that pulls me under.
Rip me open and suck my scars.
You better open your eyes when I come down.
And now, I'm loaded. You know I'm loaded. I just get loaded. I just get loaded. I just get loaded. You know I loaded, so am I, so am I. I just got, I just got, I just get, I just get, I just get loaded, I just get loaded.
Sorry, sorry......


Skinlab - Disturbing The Art Of Expression (Revolting Room)

What's wrong with my head?
Disturbing thoughts inside
These voices telling me
These fighters aren't my friends
Disturbing anxiety
What's wrong with myself
and social anxiety?
My friends are still the same
and social anxiety
You put me down
Look at me now, we look the same
Can't you see that it's killing me?
It's not the way life's supposed to be
What's wrong with my head?
This pain is killing me
I can't explain the way I feel inside
(It doesn't matter anymore)
What's wrong with my head?
This pain is killing me
I can't explain the way I feel, the way I feel inside
You put me down
Look at me now, we look the same
What's wrong with my head?
Can't you see that it's killing me
It's not the way life's supposed to be
I can't hide behind the words not real
I drown myself in my misery
Isolation is telling me,
everything I've never known
Isolation is telling me,
everything I've never known
Isolation it tells me everything
that I never know about myself
Keeps me alive
Can't you see that it's killing me?


Skinlab - Slave The Way (Revolting Room)

Everybody got their own opinions, right?
Everybody got their own desicions, right?
Everybody got their own ass on the line
Everyone slave the way, pave the way, slave
All the people scream!
Everybody made their own decisions, right?
Everybody made teir own opionions, right?
Everybody put their own ass on the line
Everybody got their own religion, right?
Everybody got their own addictions, right?
Everyone slave the way, pave the way, slave
All the people scream!
Falling further and further and further away
Slave the way, pave the way, slave
I can not live when I'm force fed
Slave the way
I can not live when I'm forced in society
Falling further and further and further away
Slave the way, pave the way, slave
Everyone slave the way, pave the way
My guitar...that I cant play very well...o well ;-)
