Funeral [Post-Hardcore]

lay your head down, time to rest
a hearse is waiting beside your door
take a final breath of air
feel the weightlessness of flight

resting time has come for you
Heaven calls for you my dear
your life was cut way too short
you're suffering so let it end

close your eyes and wait for death
the time for rest has come for you
at least you'll have a peaceful death
lay to rest, you're in your bed

Heaven sends an angel down to guide you home
listen here, so close my dear
I love you so much more than life
you know I want the best for you

you're my life, my only love
would I say for you to go if it wasn't for the best
my last words will give you joy
the last you'll ever hear in life

"I love you so much more than life"
goodbye my dear, my sweetest love
lay your head to rest my love
I'll see you in another life

The Army of Fallen [Post-Hardcore]

white light, misguidance
a razor cuts deeper into your skin
the wounded are scarred
unhealed, not cared for until you're dead

the bullies are heartless
we're wounded, we're soldiers
won't give up 'till the light dies
we've been there, yeah we know

shine light, misguide us so blindly
we carry the wounded, the dying
fight stronger, our numbers are growing
we're dying with treason

a world in black and white unfolds in delight
my word has been given, you're safer forever
the reason's not needed when treason's misleading
the army of broken still will protect you

you've joined us now, you won't be left behind
our army is caring and showing of love
the blackness is fading
the light still misguides you

with bleeding red spines we stand up for you
my heart is not a lie
don't trust me, then watch my brain
my heart is guidance protecting you

King of Earth [Metal]

you can run with the stars
travel in style everywhere you go
the city knows what's up when you come around
the world's your treasure, you are the devil

you can travel the world flying in style
the cops won't chase you 'cause they know you're trouble
kill everyone, nobody cares what you did
now when you go home, your family's in tears

see what you did with all of your power
open your eyes man, this has to stop
can you live with yourself knowing what you have done
your mind is lost from all the abuse

if you've got it made, you'd better protect
every man has a bounty for the price of your head
man can you stop the pain you keep causing
making us suffer because you got bored

you ain't a gangster, you're worth nothing to me
soon you will find out the damage you've done
you ruled the world and we're bringing you down now
you're too much trouble, it's more than it's worth

Years Of My Life [Rock]

I look back at the years of my life
and I wonder what happened to it
years of my life - they're passing me by
where did it go, all of those years

I once was a boy and now I'm a man
where'd my life go, how much time do I have left
the time I've wasted was gone from the start
soon enough I'll find that I'm dead

I keep aging and it's going too fast
not quite ready for my chances
years of my life - they keep flying away from me
these years of my life are going too fast

seems yesterday I was just ten
was it my sub-conscious mind or was I wide awake
don't remember how I spent my time alive yet dead
years of my life, once were so slow, missing my life

these years of my life are speeding right by
where'd my time go and how old am I
how much time has been wasted
who could I be, where can I go to slow my life down

recent years have gone much faster than ever before
these years of my life have gone to waste
where has it gone, what did I do
they say life's perfect, well not for me, I'm trapped in the past

Brains For Actors [Pop Rock]

baby listen to me please I have something to say
I wasn't thinking clearly, haven't been so sure for so long
life keeps rushing by my face
flying through time and space too fast for me to stay on course

I'm crashing down into the land, hit a mountain, now I'm down
the sky is dangerous, don't stay so high for too long
you'll be like me and just do things
no thought involved, you just do it 'cause you think you can

that's what's been going on for me
wish it'd change 'cause it's killing me
I don't want to be a piece of shit but it seems I am anyway
I can't change the way I am, I'm too far into this trap

I'm not thinking all this through anymore than I should
maybe less than I'd like to say I'm thinking through
I swear it's not intentional but it happens to be this way
wish it'd stop and I could change

somehow I think there's little hope to fix it all
take me back to the day when you were there on your own in need of help
I'm sure I'd help you once again but wouldn't leave you anymore
take us back to the time when I said I'm leaving you

I'll change that day to be the way it ought to be
so many things that I would change if I could just go back in time
everyone would be happy with their lives the way that they should be
I wouldn't ruin another life if I could stop myself from this

I would stop myself from falling for this one and all the others that I've met
you're the one for me forever and I'll stop myself from this
why should I change for you if you hate the way I am
I hate myself, you know it's true because of you and me, it's life

Rain Storm [Rock]

try and wash away your tracks in the rain
guilt is closing in, you know you're so wrong
what's left behind, not washed away
you left behind enough to get caught

the rain won't wash away all of your tracks
if you want to be free, then burn all that's left
the rain can not take all of the pain
the tracks are so thin, but you're still around

now guilt closes in, you know you've done wrong
keep coming back, see if you're found
your tracks are so thin, hidden within
watching your back, you cover the end with the rain

tears wash away all that's behind
I've got you near, discovered you're here
burning the pain, watching the rain
going insane, you wait for the pain

are you sorry for what's done
you use the rain to hide what's behind
well the rain can't hide all of your past
your mistakes are undone, but the fact is still there

watching the rain, crying in vain
guilt closes in and you know you're undone
you're so afraid of what you can do
so wash away all of the pain

The Truthful Lies [Pop Punk]

every day I'm asked the same things from those who know of our past
what went wrong when we lasted for so long
and I can't even say a thing 'cause I'm ashamed of who I am
I don't want to be this way but it's life, that's who I am

now I don't want to be this way, I'm ashamed of who I am
what's become of myself
and why would I lie at all, no one trusts the liar's truth
I'm ashamed of who I am but it's life it's who I am

every day they say the things I don't want to hear from them
I can't say a thing to them 'cause I'm ashamed of who I am
if I say anything, it won't help a thing at all
and when I tell the truth to you, you don't think it's really true

'cause I've lied so much before, couldn't stop it anytime
and no one trusts the lies I say even if the truth is heard
and I can't say the things I've done
'cause I don't want to be this way, who I am isn't right

I don't want to be this way, it's who I am, I want to change
anything I say is classified as lies and nothing else
someone save me and help me out 'cause I don't want to be this way
the way I am is killing me

tried to run and hide from it,
that made it worse, it didn't help a bit
all the times they ask me what went wrong with us
I can't say a thing to them 'cause if I do I'll cry in shame

I hate the thing that I've become, so ashamed of who I am
all these things I've said and done are killing me inside the heart
I warn you now to stay away 'cause I don't want to hurt you too
I'm ashamed of who I am, I don't want to be this way

California Lies [Metal]

break down your walls of security
deserve no better than a rotting hell
maybe I mean it, maybe I don't
holding you down now you're on the floor
 
breaking my walls down
I'm on my way to a bitter place
I once heard a man, well he said just one thing
all I heard himn say is how he loves his life
 
my mind won't let me be
content with who I am
take me down to Hell
you'll see that I don't care
 
Hell is where I live
I want to bring you down with me
wish I wasn't me
my life's too full of pain
 
I'm glad it may be me instead of someone else
deserving of this pain
I'll bring you down with me
fall into my grave, stay above the sea

The Endless Fall [Alternative Rock]

close your eyes and feel the fall
lean on back, you're on the edge
take the fall and have the end
you're at peace so now's the time
 
in the end you find it all
all the things you kept inside
you should have said, I could have helped
could have saved you from the fall
 
lean right back all the way
falling now you wish you'd stayed
could have had some help through this
take the fall and save regret
 
here's your chance to save yourself
talk to me in rewound time
life is worth more than this
don't throw away all you have
 
shed some light on the darkest sighs
every breath could be your last
I'm all ears so speak to me
close your eyes and take the fall

Devil's Water [Alternative Rock]

the ocean's never your friend
it kills all your life
everyone you know has died
here comes the monsoon, run away
 
tsunami follows, can you escape
the sun is fading along with your dreams
somday you'll find a way to say
your life's just an endless Hell
 
angels don't watch for you at all
demons lead the path you're on
waves crash and bring you down to Hell
kill yourself, the rain will wash away your tears
 
cutting life into dead pieces
bring yourself down to lower things
take a breath and feel the salt inside your veins
stinging pain you can't escape
 
can you find the end or is it near your time
the ocean calls for you
lightning crashes down around you
can you find a way to leave this all behind
 
here's the light, it's leaving far behind
wait in the ocean and have the world end
salty veins and deadly tears everywhere
say goodbye now you're leaving me

Ring of Blood [Pop Rock]

your smile's heaven, blend that with Eden
sorry but mankind is sacred
we can't make love yet for it is sacred
to make love is special, something for two

you know how much I love you
someday I'll lay my heart down on the line
I give you my only heart, dear
tell me something lovely face

what do you think of mistakes
do you think it's true or a myth
and what's your view on true love
I believe in both of those I say it proud

you are my one, my only love
here's a ring to show my love
it's package says to handle with care
is it maybe more than just a ring

it's my heart inside the ring
keep it real and wear it true
if you ever forget our love
please take my heart and tear it up

Childhood Friendship [Post-Hardcore]

we grew up together, shared so many dreams
lived where there's no hope
so many times we said we'd grow up great
yet in the end I saw you walk away
 
spent a hundred years wasting life away
the sad part is my only hope
left me years ago to find somebody else
I never even thought that you would leave me behind
 
you were who I trusted when everything went wrong
two thousand years went by
and when I say you next you were a different man
someone I can't trust the way I could before
 
you were just a cheat, nothing but a lie
when my life was fading
you turned the other way, chose to walk away
never said a thing or even look at me
