FELL ON BLACK DAYS by SoundGarden
Whatsoever I've feared has,
come to life.
Whatsoever I've fought off,
became my life...
Just when everyday,
seemed to greet,
me with a smile,
sunspots have faded,
and now I'm doing time,
cause I fell on,
Black days.
Whomsoever I've cured,
I've sickened now.
Whomsoever I've cradled,
I've put you down.
I'm a search light soul,
they say but I can't
see it in the night.
I'm only faking,
when I get it right,
cause I fell on,
black days.
How would I know,
that this could be,
my fate.
So what you wanted to
see good has made you blind,
and what you wanted to
be yours has made it,
mine.
So don't you lock up
something that you
wanted to see fly,
hands are for shaking.
I'm don't sure,
mind a change,
but I fell on black
days.
How could I know,
that this could be
my fate.

SUPERUNKNOWN by SoundGarden
If this isn't what you see,
It doesn't make you blind.
If this doesn't make you feel,
It doesn't mean you've died.
Where the rivers high.
Where the rivers high.
If you don't want to be seen,
you don't have to hide.
If you don't want to believe,
you don't have to try
to feel alive.
Alive in the superunknown,
first as it steals your mind
and then as it steals your soul
If this doesn't make you free,
It doesn't mean you're retired.
If this doesn't take you down,
It doesn't mean you're high.
If it doesn't make you smile,
you don't have to cry.
If this isn't making sense,
It doesn't make it lies.
Alive in the superunknown,
first it steals your mind,
then it steals your soul.
Get yourself afraid,
get yourself alone.
Get yourself contained.
get yourself control.
Alive in the superunknown.
First it steals your mind,
then it steals your...soul.

THE DAY I TRIED TO LIVE by SoundGarden
I woke up the same as any other day
except a voice was in my head
It said seize the day, pull the trigger
drop the blade
and watch the rolling heads
The day I tried to live
I stole a thousand beggars change
and gave it to the rich
The day I tried to win,
I dangled from the power lines
and let the martyrs stretch
singing
One more time around
might do it
One more time around
might make it
One more time around
might do it
One more time around
the day I tried to live
Words you say never seem
to live up to the ones
inside your head
The lives we make
never seem to ever get us anywhere
but dead
The day I tried to live
I wallowed in the blood and mud with
all the other pigs
I woke the same the other day you know
I should have stayed in bed
The day I tried to live
I wallowed in the blood and mud with
all the other pigs
And I learned that I was a liar
just like you

SO MUCH TO SAY by The Dave Matthews Band
I say my Hell is the closet
I'm stuck inside
Can't see the light
And my Heaven is a nice house
in the sky
Got central heating
and I'm alright
Yeah, yeah, yeah...
can't see the light
Keep it locked up inside
don't talk about it
Talk about the weather
Can't see the light
Open up my head and let me out,
little baby
Here we have been standing
for a long, long time
Treading trodden trails for a long,
long time
I say my Hell is a nice house in
the sky
Got central heating and I'm alright
Here we have been standing for a
long, long time
Treading trodden trails for a long,
long time
I find sometimes it's easy
to be myself
Sometimes I find it's better to be
somebody else
I see you young and soft oh little baby
Little feet, little hands, little baby
One year of crying' and the words
creep up inside
Creep into your mind
So much to say
Here we have been standing for a
long, long time
Treading trodden trails for a long,
long time
I find sometimes it's easy
to be myself
Sometimes I feel it's better
to be somebody else
So much to say
Open up my head and let me out
Little baby

DRIVE IN DRIVE OUT by The Dave Matthews Band
I hear more than I like to...
so I boil my head in a sense of
humor...I laugh at what I cannot
change...I throw it all on the pyre
again...go then and do this
I'd do it for you...when all that I
want is so badly to be...by myself
again...it's going to drive me right
out of my brain
Drive in drive out I'm leaving
Drive in drive out
I'll come back again
Drive in drive out I'm leaving
Drive in drive out
I don't care if we all turn to waste...
so when I beg...you avoid
me...because I smell of dirt...hungry,
hungry boy...you won't leave me all
alone...the boy won't go
Sooner or later we're done
Sooner or later I'm gone
because, because
Sooner or later we're gone
Sooner away
Ooh, my head is pounding now...god
has all but left me behind...not a
sense of worry...I'm going to
drive in and drive out again
Drive in drive out I'm leaving
Drive in drive out I'll come
Drive in drive out I'm leaving
Drive in Drive out
I'm over this arrangement...
around here...emptiness
sounded so good...I want to
drive you right into my world
Drive in drive out I'm leaving
Drive in drive out I'll come
Drive in drive out I'm leaving
Drive in drive out

NUTSHELL by Alice in Chains
We chase misprinted lines
We face the path of time
and yet I fight
and yet I fight
This battle all alone
No one to cry to
No place to call home
Oooh...Oooh...
Oooh...Oooh...
My gift of self is raped
My privacy is raked
and yet I find
and yet I find
Repeating in my head
If I can't be on my own
I'd feel better dead
Oooh...Oooh...
Oooh...Oooh...

LIVE IN A HOLE by Pantera
Full of grief I scream at the wind, thought I heard
the words of others.
Imprison myself, and stay in a shell, I won't let
you in to have a story to tell.
Things tend to drag me down, don't understand so
they hate me now.
My fear grips the will of stone
My grip fears I'll die alone
I promised myself somewhere in teenage life
I'd never submit to the ones I will not be like
Live in a hole, but stay close to my kind, cause
they understand what burns in my mind
I still feel incomplete, friends are few and
far between
My fear grips the will of stone
My grips fears I'll die alone

THE UGLY TRUTH by Matthew Sweet
You don't want to die
But the living gets you down
You want to act like nothings wrong
Even though you heard a sound
And then you're ripped right out of the ground
Like a f*ckin' root
Ah, you simply cannot hide from the ugly truth
You feel you must be wise
'Cause you could find yourself
Among the sea of smiling faces
It's a way I've never felt
Yeah, it kinda flies right into my face
And out the other side
The ugly truth leaves nothing to decide
The ugly truth makes every one of us a liar
Ugly
If you can dig a big enough hole
To bury all your loot
No, you still won't be prepared for the ugly truth
No, you'll never be prepared for the ugly truth
You simply cannot hide from the ugly truth
Ugly

IF I EVER LOSE MY FAITH IN YOU by Sting
You could say I lost my faith in science and progress
You could say I lost my belief in the Holy Church
You could say I lost my sense of direction
You could say all of this and worse but
If I ever loos my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do
Some would say I was a lost man in a lost world
You could say I lost my faith in the people on TV
You could say I lost my belief in our politicians
They all seemed like game show hosts to me
If I ever lose my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do
I could be lost inside there lies without a trace
But everytime I close my eyes, I can see you face
I never saw no miracle of science
That didn't go from a blessing to a curse
I never saw no military solution
That didn't always end up as something worse, but
let me say this first
If I ever lose my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do
