Kamikaze - Rhubarb
Maybe I can get you in
Spend my time on you again
Leave our tickets at the door
We’re not paying anymore
When its time to go
I’ll meet you in the parking lot
We’ll escape like a kamikaze
But its late and you’re tired
We’re safe beneath the summer sky
You and me we’re kamikaze
Just to live is what you want
But the change is what I need
And I’m not wasting another line
We could find somewhere to hide
When its time to go
I’ll meet you in the parking lot
We’ll escape like a kamikaze
But its late and you’re tired
We’re safe beneath the summer sky
You and me we’re kamikaze
Call me up when you’re alone
We can find somewhere to go
We can pick it up again
And we’ll see the morning in
When its time to go
I’ll meet you in the parking lot
We’ll escape like a kamikaze
But its late and you’re tired
We’re safe beneath the summer sky
You and me we’re kamikaze

Pennywise - Rhubarb
Call me pennywise and see
What it means to be
The things that set you free
Don’t mean as much to me
Call me anything you please
Things you may believe
For all your perfect plans
I’m not a lesser man
So call it as you see
But you didn’t rescue me
I turn around
Can we stretch humility
Live our lives to mean something
Do we ever stop to think
We’re squandering the lead
So call it as you see
But you didn’t rescue me
I turn around
Leave me stray beyond me
Please be easy on me
Aren’t we caught in the same lane
Please be
Could you sacrifice ideals
Offer me release
To exercise a dream
Invisible it seems
So call it as you see
But you didn’t rescue me
I turn around
Leave me stray beyond me
Please be easy on me
Aren’t we caught in the same lane
Please be
Call me pennywise and see
What it means to be
The things that set you free
Leave me stray beyond me
Please be easy on me
Aren’t we caught in the same lane
Please be

Adam's Song - Blink 182
I never thought I'd die alone
I laughed the loudest who'd have known
I traced the cord back to the wall
No wonder it was never plugged in at all
I took my time, I hurried up
The choice was mine I didn't think enough
I'm too depressed to go on
You'll be sorry when I'm gone
I never conquered, rarely came
16 just held such better days
Days when I still felt alive
We couldn't wait to get outside
The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over I'd survived
I couldn't wait till I got home
To pass the time in my room alone
I never thought I'd die alone
Another six months I'll be unknown
Give all my things to all my friends
You'll never set foot in my room again
You'll close it off, board it up
Remember the time that I spilled the cup
Of apple juice in the hall
Please tell mom this is not her fault
I never conquered, rarely came
But tomorrow holds such better days
Days when I can still feel alive
When I can't wait to get outside
The world is wide, the time goes by
The tour is over, I've survived
I can't wait till I get home
To pass the time in my room alone

Going Away to College - Blink 182
Please take me by the hand
It's so cold out tonight
I'll put blankets on the bed
I won't turn out the light
Just don't forget to think about me
And I won't forget you
I'll write you once a week she said
Why does it feel the same
To fall in love or break it off
And if young love is just a game
Then I must have missed the kick off
Don't depend on me to ever follow through on anything
But I'd go through hell for you and
I haven't been this scared in a long time
And I'm so unprepared so here's your valentine
Bouquet of clumsy words, a simple melody
This world's and ugly place, but you're so beautiful to me
I'll think about the times
She kissed me after class
And she put up with my friends
I acted like an ass
I'd ditch my lecture to watch the girls play soccer
Is my picture still hanging in her locker?

Only Happy When It Rains - Garbage
I'm only happy when it rains
I'm only happy when it's complicated
and though I know you can't appreciate it
I'm only happy when it rains
You know I love it when the news is bad
and why it feels so good to feel so sad
I'm only happy when it rains
Pour your misery down...
Pour your misery down on me
Pour your misery down...
Pour your misery down on me
I'm only happy when it rains
I feel good when things are going wrong
I only listen to the sad sad songs
I'm only happy when it rains
I only smile in the dark
My only comfort is the night gone black
I didn't accidentally tell you that
I'm only happy when it rains
You'll get the message by the time I'm through
When I complain about me and you
I'm only happy when it rains
Pour your misery down...
Pour your misery down on me
Pour your misery down...
Pour your misery down on me
Pour your misery down...
Pour your misery down on me
Pour your misery down
You can keep me company as long as you don't care
I'm only happy when it rains
You wanna hear about my new obsession
I'm riding high upon a deep depression
I'm only happy when it rains
Pour some misery down on me

You Look So Fine - Garbage
You look so fine
I want to break your heart
And give you mine
You're taking me over
It's so insane
You've got me tethered and chained
I hear your name
And I'm falling over
I'm not like all the other girls
I can't take it like the other girls
I won't share it like the other girls
That you used to know
You look so fine
Knocked down
Cried out
Been down just to find out
I'm through
Bleeding for you
I'm open wide
I want to take you home
We'll waste some time
You're the only one for me
You look so fine
I'm like the desert tonight
Leave her behind
If you want to show me
I'm not like all the other girls
I won't take it like the other girls
I won't fake it like the other girls
That you used to know
You're taking me over
Over and over
I'm falling over
Over and over
You're taking me over
Drown in me one more time
Hide inside me tonight
Do what you want to do
Just pretend happy end
Let me know let it show
Ending with letting go
Let's pretend, happy end

Medication - Garbage
I don't need an education
I learnt all I need from you
They've got me on some medication
My point of balance was askew
It keeps my temperature from rising
My blood is pumping through my veins
Somebody get me out of here
I'm tearing at myself
Nobody gives a damn about me or anybody else
I wear myself out in the morning
You're asleep when I get home
Please don't call me self defending
You know it cuts me to the bone
And it's really not surprising
I hold a force I can't contain
Somebody get me out of here
I'm tearing at myself
Nobody gives a damn about me or anybody else
And still you call me co-dependent
Somehow you lay the blame on me
And still you call me co-dependent
Somehow you lay the blame on me
Somebody get me out of here
I'm tearing at myself
I've got to make a point these days
To extricate myself
Somebody get me out of here
I'm tearing at myself
Nobody gives a damn about me or anybody else
And still you call me co-dependent
Somehow you lay the blame on me
And still you call me co-dependent
Somehow you lay the blame on me

Black Balloon - Goo Goo Dolls
Baby's black balloon makes her fly
I almost fell into that hole in your life
And you're not thinking about tomorrow
'Cause you were the same as me
But on your knees
A thousand other boys could never reach you
How could I have been the one
I saw the world spin beneath you
And scatter like ice from the spoon
That was your womb
Comin' down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
Or are you someone's prayer
You know the lies they always told you
And the love you never knew
What's the things they never showed you
That swallowed the light from the sun
Inside your room
Comin' down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
And there's no time left for losing
When you stand they fall
Comin' down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
All because I'm
Comin' down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And 'llI go on to bring you home
All because I'm
And I'll become
What you became to me

Name - Goo Goo Dolls
And even though the moment passed me by
I still can't turn away
'Cause all the dreams you never thought you'd lose
Got tossed along the way
And letters that you never meant to send
Get lost or thrown away
And now we're grown up orphans
That never knew their names
We don't belong to no one
That's a shame
But if you could hide beside me
Maybe for a while
And I won't tell no one your name
And I won't tell em' your name
And scars are souvenirs you never lose
The past is never far
Did you lose yourself somewhere out there
Did you get to be a star
And don't it make you sad to know that life
Is more than who we are
We grew up way too fast
And now there's nothing to believe
Reruns all become our history
A tired song keeps playing on a tired radio
And I won't tell no one your name
And I won't tell em' your name
I won't tell em' your name
I won't tell em' your name…
I think about you all the time
But I don't need the same
It's lonely where you are come back down,
And I won't tell em your name

Acoustic #3 - Goo Goo Dolls
They painted up your secrets
With the lies they told you
And the least they ever gave you
Was the most you ever knew
And I wonder where these dreams go
When the world gets in your way
What's the point in all this screaming
No one's listening anyway
Your voice is small and fading
And you hide in here unknown
And your mother loves your father
'Cause she's got nowhere to go
And she wonders where these dreams go
'Cause the world got in her way
What's the point in ever trying
Nothing's changing anyway
They press their lips against you
And you love the lies they say
And I tried so hard to reach you
But you're falling anyway
And you know I see right through you
When the world gets in your way
What's the point in all the screaming
You're not listening anyway

Appels + Oranjes - The Smashing Pumpkins
What if the sun refused to shine?
what if the clouds refused to rain?
what if the wind refused to blow?
what if the seas refused to wave?
what if the world refused its turn?
what if the stars would hesitate?
what if what is isn't true?
what are you going to do?
what if what is isn't you?
does that mean you've got to lose?
digging for the feel of something new
what if the silence let you dream?
what if the air could let you breathe?
what if the words would bring you here?
what if this sound could bring you peace?
what if what is isn't true?
what are you gonna do?
digging for the feel of something new
what if what is isn't you?
what are you going to do?
it came from your thoughts
your dreams and visions
ripped up from your weeks and indecisions
what if the sun refused to shine?
what if the clouds refused to rain?
what if the world refused to turn?
what if the clocks would hesitate?
what if what is isn't true?
what are you gonna do?
what if what is isn't you?
does that mean you've got to lose?
digging for the feel of something new
does that mean you've got to choose?
the feel of something new
does that mean you've got to lose?
the thoughts you cannot lose?
what are you gonna do?

Mean to Me - Tonic
There's an empty place inside that is hurting me
A place that keeps my heart out on it's own
A disconnected function of my wretchedness
That keeps me so hard pressed
It's a place where words are spoken you will never hear
A broken bridge of lines that just won't come
An empty lung that won't give the wind to speak at me
How far can it be from home
Why you gotta be so mean to me?
You know I don't listen good and I'm always in need
So why you gotta be so mean to me?
Do you think that it got up and left for good this time
A crowd of faceless strangers moving on
A feeling that you left it all behind you now
That it doesn't hurt somehow
To know
So open up the book that you keep deep inside
Let the pages yellow in the sun
Show them that you're not afraid to let them see
How far you can be from home
Why you gotta be so mean to me
Why you gotta drag me down just to make me see
You know I don't listen good and I'm always in need
So why you gotta be so fucking mean to me?
Why you gotta be why you gotta be
Why you gotta be why you gotta be
Why you gotta be why you gotta be
Why you gotta be so mean to me

400 Miles From Darwin - The Whitlams
We pay to shed a sombre tear
in the darkness together here
One among the hundreds, crying for the millions
And when the house lights break the trance
Only then unclasp our hands
Compose ourselves and fix our hair
"We would have all been Schindler there"
Drive in silence slowly home
Now horror's more than skin and bone
And can you see in twenty years
We'll pay to shed the same cheap tears
In a film about an island, watch our hero take a stand
Pay our money gladly to wash our hands
Watching the movie
we'll ask how the people might have known
Let it happen there without a fight
Kept driving on quietly home
Left the Timorese alone - 400 miles from Darwin
The two-minute hate is now the three-hour love
With any action left to up above
Those people then could turn their heads
Now all the same we sleep instead
While 400 miles from Darwin
East Timor is dying
Watching the movie
we'll ask how the people might have known
Let it happen there without a fight
Kept driving on quietly home
Left the Timorese alone - 400 miles from Darwin

Not the Same - Bodyjar
Think of all the things I do
And I still hold the thought of you
With someone else I know its true so faraway
And I can only hold my breath
And start to die a lonely death
With you and me and all the rest so faraway
Don't say I told you so
One thing you'll never know
You're not the same
You've changed
I don't need you anyway
You're not the person that I believed in yesterday
You're not the same
You've changed
Somethings missing anyway
You're not the person that I believed in yesterday
I can't hold it back you see
I know it all comes back to me
You must have practiced hard to be so faraway
Never wanted me to show
Just write me off I let you go
And now there's more for you to know
So faraway

I Am A Rock - Simon and Garfunkel
A winter's day
In a deep and dark December
I am alone
Gazing from my window
To the streets below
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow
I am a rock
I am an island
I've built walls
A fortress deep and mighty
That none may penetrate
I have no need for friendship
Friendship causes pain
It's laughter and it's loving I disdain.
I am a rock
I am an island
Don't talk of love
Well, I've heard the word before
It's sleeping in my memory
I won't disturb the slumber
Of feelings that have died
If I'd never loved,
I never would have cried
I am a rock
I am an island
I have my books
And my poetry to protect me
I am shielded in my armor
Hiding in my room
Safe within my womb
I touch no-one and no-one touches me
I am a rock
I am an island
And the rock feels no pain
And an island never cries

Charge - Splendid
The way you love
Have you got a name for it
Cause I don't understand it
The language is an annoying necessity
And I depend on all the regular things
Got a list tattooed on my memory
Of how our tryst should unfold
I'm falling from the opposite
What good is it
Fight the map with no key attached
My heart's enlarged and I charge
What do you say
To a dream that won't go away
Cause I don't know if I can stand it
Forever isn't something you want to be
And I rely on familiar things
Seven days all have special meanings
But you just call it a week
I'm falling from the opposite
What good is it
Fight the map with no key attached
My heart's enlarged and I charge
I'm falling from the opposite
What what good is it
Fight the map with no key attached
My heart's enlarged and I charge
The night is young
And the moon is a mother to both of us
We both understand this
Marriage is an old and tired religion
And I love all the traditional things
Domestic bliss and all that shit
Confusion is a definite direction
I'm falling from the opposite
What good is it
Fight the map with no key attached
My heart's enlarged and I charge
I'm falling from the opposite
What good is it
Fight the map with no key attached
My heart's enlarged and I charge

Don't Falter - Mint Royale
I used to feel so sad
I'd think too slow and drink too fast
Life I knew, blue and black
Till someone came and changed me back
Now you seem nice
These colours shimmering around you
You must decide
To risk your heart for love to find you
Hey, don't falter
We know we ought to be together
Strange, I saw you
I saw that you would last forever
Please, stay with me
And never miss a chance to kiss me
Hey, I love you
When you're with me it's always summer
Now everything is fine
Because he is officially mine
And as long as we've got each other
It's going to be officially summer
You're hypnotised
By the colours all around you
You must decide
To risk your heart for love to find you
Hey, don't falter
We know we ought to be together
Strange, I saw you
I saw that you would last forever
Please, stay with me
And never miss a chance to kiss me
Hey, I love you
When you're with me it's always summer
It's only right
To have a little love around you
You must decide
To risk your heart
Hey, don't falter
We know we ought to be together
Strange, I saw you
I saw that you would last forever
Please, stay with me
And never miss a chance to kiss me
Hey, I love you
When you're with me it's always summer

Head Over Feet - Alanis Morissette
I had no choice but to hear you
You stated your case time and again
I thought about it
You treat me like a princess
I'm not used to liking that
You ask how my day was
You've already won me over in spite of me
Don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet
Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are
I couldn't help it
It's all your fault
Your love is thick and it swallowed me whole
You're so much braver than I gave you credit for
That's not lip service
You've already won me over in spite of me
Don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet
Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are
I couldn't help it
It's all your fault
You are the bearer of unconditional things
You held your breath and the door for me
Thanks for your patience
You're the best listener that I've ever met
You're my best friend
Best friend with benefits
What took me so long
I've never felt this healthy before
I've never wanted something rational
I am aware now
I am aware now
You've already won me over in spite of me
Don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet
Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are
I couldn't help it
It's all your fault
