The Rhythm and the Blues - Sam Cooke

Song: I Lost Everything

"The moon and the stars they don't seem the same
Love has lost its glory, to me it's just a game.
No, I lost everything, my dreams are all through
My life is only make believe without you"

American IV: The Man Comes Around - Johnny Cash

Song: Hurt

Lyrics:
"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.
And you could have it all,
my empire of dirt."

8.5

Love Story - Yelawolf

Song: Devil in My Veins

Lyrics:
"Lately I've been afraid of myself
The closer that I get to rain
The more I feel at home, the further I'm away
And all that I feel is pain

Count me, count me, call my name
Don't leave me out the chain
Crimson tears falling and my shirt is blood-stained
And the devil's forever in my veins
And the devil's forever in my veins"

7.7

Lazaretto - Jack White_XV

Song: Would You Fight For My Love?

Lyrics:
"It's not enough that I love you
There's all these things I have to prove to you
You use the sun to erase the past
But you think it only raises for you

Well I'm afraid of being hurt that's true
But not afraid of any physical pain
Just as I am always scared of water
But not afraid of standing out in the rain

The last person in the room she hugged
Was the person that she loved the most
Nobody noticed that I was down on the rug
I'm getting better at becoming a ghost"

Without You I'm Nothing - Placebo

Song: Without You I'm Nothing

Lyrics:
"Strange infatuation seems to grace the evening tide.
I'll take it by your side.
Such imagination seems to help the feeling slide.
I'll take it by your side.
Instant correlation sucks and breeds a pack of lies.
I'll take it by your side.
Oversaturation curls the skin and tans the hide.
I'll take it by your side.

I'm unclean, a libertine
And every time you vent your spleen,
I seem to lose the power of speech,
Your slipping slowly from my reach.
You grow me like an evergreen,
You never see the lonely me at all."

8.7

Terveisiä kaaoksesta - Asa (Avain)

Song: Yksinäisyyden Ja Yhtenäisyyden Vuori

Lyrics:
"Kaupas pitkin seinii kassal väkinäine hymy
Nyt taikuri oli itsekin yllättyny
Päässäni sota sormessani pateja
Herään omast sängyst kädes rutistettui pameja
En syöny yhtää en luota nappeihin
Aprillipäivänäkää usko valkotakkeihi
Tunteiden murha valtion luvalla
Kuhan yritys hyötyy nii saat olla kujalla
En usko vitsejäsi oon kai liian tyhmä elää
Mut liian viisas tappaakseni itseäni"

6.5

Blackfield - Blackfield

Song: Cloudy Now

Lyrics:
"In a special place that I call my life
The father was cruel and he lost his wife
But I don't see either cause I live across the street
It's a beautiful thing when it starts to rain
A man who drinks just to drown the pain
And I can't stop from dreaming there's something else"

8.9

The Definitive Ray Charles - Ray Charles

Song: You Don't Know Me

Lyrics:
"No, you don't know the one
Who dreams of you at night,
And longs to kiss your lips
And longs to hold you tight.
Oh-oh, I'm just a friend,
That's all I've ever been -
'Cause you don't know me.

For I never knew the art of making love,
Though my heart aches with love for you.
Afraid and shy, I-I've let my chance go by,
A chance that you might love me too."

225

Sleeping With Ghosts - Placebo

Song: Centrefolds

Lyrics:
"It's wrong, I've been waiting far too long
For you to be-he.. be-hee ..be-hee ..be-hee

All the centrefolds that you can't afford
Have long since waved their last goodbyes
All the centrefolds that you can't afford
You've long since faded from their eyes
So be-hee ..be mine."

Damnation - Opeth

Song: In My Time Of Need

Lyrics:
"I can't see the meaning of this life i'm leading,
I try to forget you, as you forgot me.
This time there is nothing left for you to take, this is goodbye.
Summer is miles and miles away, and no one would ask me to stay

And I, should contemplate this change to ease the pain.
And I, should step out of the rain, turn away."

Pain In My Heart - OTIS REDDING

believe in you"

Meisterwerk 2 (Dig) - My Dying Bride

Song: Roads

Lyrics:
"Can't anybody see? you've got a war to fight
never found our way, regardless of what they say

How can it feel this wrong?

Storm in the morning light, I feel
no more can I say, frozen to myself
I got nobody on my side and surely that ain't right
and surely that ain't right"

Song: I Guess I Should Go To Sleep

Lyrics:
"Well upstairs, upstaged, and upset
Keeping quiet is probably my best bet yet
Cause I ain't managed to say the right thing yet
Well I guess I should go back to bed

Guess I should go to sleep
It's too hard standin' on my own two feet
Been runnin' too long on an endless street
Well I guess I should go to sleep"

What Becomes of the Broken Hearted [7" VINYL]... - Jimmy Ruffin

Song: What Becomes Of The Broken Hearted

Lyrics:
"As I walk this land with broken dreams
I have visions of many things
Love's happiness is just an illusion
Filled with sadness and confusion,
What becomes of the broken hearted
Who had love that's now departed?
I know I've got to find
Some kind of peace of mind"

"I'm searching though I don't succeed,
But someone look, there's a growing need.
Oh, he is lost, there's no place for beginning,
All that's left is an unhappy ending."

"So you found a girl
Who thinks really deep thougts
What's so amazing about really deep thoughts?
Boy you best praya that I bleed real soon
How's that thought for you
My scream got lost in a paper cup
You think there's a heaven
Where some screams have gone
I got 25 bucks and a cracker
Do you think it's enough
To get us there"

Don't say it's the end of the road.
Remember the flowers I sent?
I need you, babe...
To put through the shredder, in front of my friends, oh babe...

When you know how I need you
To beat to a pulp on a Saturday night, oh babe.
Don't leave me now.
How can you treat me this way?"

Lyrics:
"Sometimes I feel so alone,
I just don't know, feels like I been down this road before,
So lonely and cold,

Soon as I go home and close the door,
Kinda feels like deja vu,
I wanna get away from this place I do,
But I can't and I won't say I tried but I know that's a lie cause I don't
And why I just don't know..."

You're free to leave me, but just don't deceive me
And please believe me when I say I love you"

All the Little Lights - Passenger

Song: The Wrong Direction

Lyrics:
"Cause I'd love to feel love but I can't stand the rejection
I hide behind my jokes as a form of protection
I thought I was close but under further inspection
It seems I've been running in the wrong direction
There's fish in the sea for me to make a selection
I'd jump in if it wasn't for my ear infection
Cause all I want to do is try to make a connection
It seems I've been running in the wrong direction oh"

In Absentia - Porcupine Tree

Song: Blackest Eyes

Lyrics:
"A walk in the woods and I will try
Something under the trees that made you cry
It's so erotic when your make up runs

I got wiring loose inside my head
I got books that I never ever read
I got secrets in my garden shed
I got a scar where all my urges bled
I got people underneath my bed
I got a place where all my dreams are dead
Swim with me into your blackest eyes"

Song: Tears To Shed

Lyrics:
"If I touch a burning candle I can feel no pain
If you cut me with a knife it's still the same
And I know her heart is beating
And I know that I am dead
Yet the pain here that I feel
Try and tell me it's not real
For it seems that I still have a tear to shed"

Lyrics:
"In the night I hear 'em talk, the coldest story ever told
Somewhere far along this road he lost his soul
To a woman so heartless

How could you be so heartless?

How could be so Dr. Evil?
You're bringin' out a side of me that I don't know
I decided we wasn't goin' speak so
Why we up 3 a.m. on the phone?"

That you ain't sleeping alone.

In here
So I shut my eyes.
You ain't going anywhere
And I ain't got no place to be
So lay down here baby
And fucking lie to me
My flesh and blood are freezing up in the frost
I wanna tell you everything that I know about love
But I’m done.
I’m done
So feed me to the fucking dogs"

Your apple has been rotting
Tomorrow's turned up dead
I have it all and i have no choice but to
i'll make everyone pay and you will see
you can kill yourself now,
because you're dead in my mind."

With no one who truly cares for me."

I'm gonna blow my eyes instead
I put my memories in a landscape where only reckless angels tread
I watch the fingerprints you left like a secret code upon my skin

I really want you to stay but I know you have to go
I really want you to stay but sometimes it doesn't show."

It's just kind of a rainy day
I hope you understand
I'm the one who's left behind"

You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just...

Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky"

Keep this scene inside your head
As the bruises turn to yellow
The swelling goes down."

"When the one thing you're looking for
Is nowhere to be found
And you're back stepping all of your moves
Trying to figure it out
You wanna reach out
You wanna give in
Your head's wrapped around what's around the next bend
You wish you could find something warm
'Cause you're shivering cold

The last thing you say as your're saying goodbye
Something inside you is crying and driving you on"

To keep you in my pocket "

We're running to the edge of the world
I don't know if the world will end today"

I've been wanting to hold you through the night
I've got to find my way to the other side
I want to hold you tonight and forever"

It's the path I've chosen to go
Frozen as snow I show no emotion whatsoever so"

Just takes so much out of me"
