    Poetic Tragedy - The Used

    The cup is not half empty as pessimists say
    as far as he sees nothing's left in the cup
    A whole cup full of nothing for him to indulge
    since the voice of ambition has long since been shut up

    A singer, a writer,
    he's not dreaming now of going no where
    he gave heed to nothing
    and all that he was is just a tragedy

    So he voyages in circles succeeds getting nowhere
    and submits to the substance that first got him there, there, there, there

    violent frustration
    he cries out to God or just no one
    is there a point to this madness
    and all that he was is just a tragedy

    He feels alone
    His heart in his hand
    He's alone
    He feels like
    I feel

    Then on that last day he breaks
    and he stood tall
    then he yelled, then he yelled
    (Why world? WHY WORLD?? Hate you! HATE YOU!!! BYE WORLD!!!!!!)

    violent frustration
    he cries out to God or just no one
    is there a point to this madness
    and all that he was is just a tragedy
    There are moments when one feels free from one's own identification with human limitations and inadequacies. At such moments one imagines that one stands on some spot of a small planet, gazing in amazement at the cold yet profoundly moving beauty of the eternal, the unfathomable; life and death flow into one, and there is neither evolution nor destiny; only Being. - Albert Einstein

    This one is dedicated to my Ex and My Best Friend.

    Seventy Times 7 - Brand New

    Back in school they never taught us what we needed to know,
    like how to deal with despair, or someone breaking your heart.
    For twelve years I've held it all together but a night like this is begging to pull me apart.
    I played it quiet, left you deep in conversation.
    I felt uncool and hung out around the kitchen.
    I remember I kept thinking that I know you never would,
    and now I know I want to kill you like only a best friend could.

    Everyone's caught on to everything you do
    Everyone's caught on to.

    As if this happening wasn't enough I got to go
    and write a song just to remind myself how bad it sucked.
    Ignore the sun, the cover's over my head.
    I wrote a message on my pillow that says, "Jesse, stay asleep in bed."
    So don't apologize. I hope you choke and die.
    Search your cell for something with which to hang yourself.
    They say you need to pray if you want to go to heaven
    but they don't tell you what to say when your whole life has gone to hell.

    Everyone's caught on to everything you do
    Everyone's caught on to
    And everyone's caught on to everything you do (And I can't let you, let me down again.)
    Everyone's caught on to (And I can't let you, let me down again)

    So, is that what you call a getaway?
    Tell me what you got away with.
    Cause I've seen more spine in jellyfish.
    I've seen more guts in eleven-year-old kids.
    Have another drink and drive yourself home.
    I hope there's ice on all the roads.
    And you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt,
    and again when your head goes through the windshield.

    And is that what you call tact?
    You're as subtle as a brick in the small of my back.
    So let's end this call, and end this conversation.
    and is that what you call a getaway?
    well tell me what you got away with.
    cause you left the frays from the ties you severed
    when you say best friends means friends forever

    So, is that what you call a getaway?
    Well tell me what you got away with.
    Cause I've seen more spine in jellyfish.
    I've seen more guts in eleven-year-old kids.
    Have another drink and drive yourself home.
    I hope there's ice on all the roads.
    And you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt,
    and again when your head goes through the windshield.

    Everyone's caught on to everything you do (And I can't let you, let me down again)
    Everyone's caught on to (And I can't let you, let me down again)
    And everyone's caught on to everything you do (And I can't let you, let me down again)
    Everyone's caught on to (And I can't let you, let me down again)

    Amazing Song.

    Sic Transit Gloria...Glory Fades - Brand New

    Keep the noise low,
    She doesn't wanna blow it,
    Shaking head to toe
    while your left hand does the "show me around"
    Quickens your heartbeat,
    It beats me straight into the ground.

    You don't recover from a night like this.
    A victim, still lying in bed, completely motionless.
    A hand moves in the dark to a zipper.
    Hear a boy bracing tight against sheets
    barely whisper, "This is so messed up."

    Upon arrival the guests had all stared.
    Dripping wet and clearly depressed,
    he'd headed straight for the stairs.
    No longer cool, but a boy in a stitch,
    unprepared for a life full of lies and failing relationships.

    (Up the stairs: the station where
    the act becomes the art of growing up.)

    He keeps his hands low.
    He doesn't wanna blow it.
    He's wet from head to toe and
    his eyes give her the up and the down.
    His stomach turns and he thinks of throwing up.
    But the body on the bed beckons forward,
    and he starts growing up.

    The fever, the focus.
    The reasons that I had to believe you weren't too hard to sell.
    Die young and save yourself.
    The tickle. The taste of.
    It used to be the reason I breathed, but now it's choking me up.
    Die young and save yourself.

    She hits the lights.
    This doesn't seem quite fair.
    Despite everything he learned from his friends,
    he doesn't feel so prepared.
    She's breathing quiet and smooth.
    He's gasping for air.
    "This is the first and last time," he says.
    She fakes a smile and presses her hips into his.
    He keeps his hands pinned down at his sides.
    He's holding back from telling her
    exactly what it really feels like.

    He is the lamb, she is the slaughter.
    She's moving way too fast and all he wanted was to hold her.
    Nothing that he tells her's really having an effect.
    He whispers that he loves her,
    but she's probably only looking for se...

    (Up the stairs: the station where
    the act becomes the art of growing up.)

    So much more than he could ever give.
    A life free of lies and a meaningful relationship.
    He keeps his hands pinned down at his sides.
    He waits for it to end,
    and for the aching in his gut to subside.

    The fever, the focus.
    The reasons that I had to believe you weren't too hard to sell.
    Die young and save yourself.
    The tickle. The taste of.
    It used to be the reason I breathed, but now it's choking me up.
    Die young and save yourself.

    Up the stairs: the station where
    the act becomes the art of growing up.

    Final Fantasy 8 - Faye Wong

    Eyes on me - FFVIII (This one was my first serious girlfriend and I's song.)

    Whenever sang my songs
    On the stage, on my own
    Whenever said my words
    Wishing they would be heard
    I saw you smiling at me
    Was it real or just my fantasy
    You'd always be there in the corner
    Of this tiny little bar

    My last night here for you
    Same old songs, just once more
    My last night here with you?
    Maybe yes, maybe no
    I kind of liked it your way
    How you shyly placed your eyes on me

    Oh, did you ever know?
    That I had mine on you

    Darling, so there you are
    With that look on your face
    As if you're never hurt
    As if you're never down
    Shall I be the one for you
    Who pinches you softly but sure
    If frown is shown then
    I will know that you are no dreamer

    So let me come to you
    Close as I wanted to be
    Close enough for me
    To feel your heart beating fast
    And stay there as I whisper

    How I loved your peaceful eyes on me
    did you ever know
    That I had mine on you

    Darling, so share with me
    Your love if you have enough
    Your tears if your're holding back
    Or pain if that's what it is
    How can I let you know
    I'm more than the dress and the voice
    Just reach me out then
    You will know that you're not dreaming

    Darling, so there you are
    With that look on your face
    As if you're never hurt
    As if you're never down
    Shall I be the one for you
    Who pinches you softly but sure
    If frown is shown then
    I will know that you are no dreamer

    Someone tell me what this song means.

    Hands In The Sky (Big Shot) - Straylight Run

    Tear it out of these open pages,
    Women and kids of all ages,
    Millions of men with blank faces,
    Italicised lies, headlines, bold type

    Living lives just like deer in headlights,
    Terrified, blind, and wait to die,
    I wonder when they'll come get me,
    I wonder when they'll come get me:

    We want you, have to need you:
    And we'll tell you when they're hungry again,
    And we'll tell you when they're hungry again,
    It never ends, never ends:
    We want you, have to need you:
    And we'll tell you when they're hungry again,
    And we'll tell you when they're hungry again,
    It never ends, never ends, never ends:

    Big shot screaming, "Put your hands in the sky,"
    He says, "Give it up boy, give it up or you're gonna die,
    You'll get a bullet in the back of the neck,
    In the back of the neck right between the eyes."

    • Lesson Learned • | by Ray Lamontagne

    Well the truth it fell so heavy
    Like a hammer through the room
    That I could choose another over her
    You always said I was an actor, baby
    Guess in truth you thought me just amateur

    That you never saw the signs
    That you never lost your grip
    Oh, come on now
    That's such a childish claim
    Now I wear the brand of traitor
    Don't it seem a bit absurd
    When it's clear I was so obviously framed
    When it's clear I was so obviously framed

    Now you act so surprised
    To hear what you already know
    And all you really had to do was ask
    I'd have told you straight away
    All those lies were truth
    And all that was false was fact

    Now you hold me close and hard
    But I was like a statue at most
    Refusing to acknowledge you'd been hurt
    Now you're clawing at my throat
    And you're crying all is lost
    But your tears they felt so hot upon my shirt
    But your tears they felt so hot upon my shirt

    Well the truth it fell so heavy
    Like a hammer through the room
    That I could choose another over her
    You always said I was an actor, baby
    Guess in truth you thought me just amateur

    Was it you who told me once
    Now looking back it seems so real
    That all our mistakes are merely grist for the mill
    So why is it now after I had my fill
    That you steal from me the sorrow that I've earned
    Shall we call this a lesson learned?
    Shall we call this a lesson learned?

    I've seen the end of the day come too soon
    Not a lot to say, not a lot to do
    You played the game, you owe nothing to yourself
    Rest a day, for tomorrow you can't tell
    You can't tell

    Ive seen the end of the day come too late
    Seen the love you had turning into hate
    Had to act like I didnt even care
    But I did so I got stranded standing there
    Standing there

    It's nothing that I havent seen before
    But it still kills me like it did before
    No it's nothing that I havent seen before
    But it still kills me like it did before

    I've seen the end of the day come too soon
    Like the prison dogs they set out after you
    You owe nothing to the past but wasted time
    To serve a sentence that was only in your mind

    It's nothing that I havent seen before
    But it still kills me like it did before
    No it's nothing that I havent seen before
    But it still kills me like it did before

    End Of The Day - Beck

    The Kids Aren't Alright - The Offspring

    When we were young the future was so bright (whoa)
    the old neighborhood was so alive (whoa)
    and every kid on the whole damn street (whoa)
    was gonna make it big in every beat.

    now the neighborhood's cracked and torn (whoa)
    the kids are grown up but their lives are worn(whoa)
    how can one little street
    swallow so many lives?

    Chorus:
    Chances blown
    nothing's free
    longing for
    what used to be
    still it's hard
    hard to see
    fragile lives
    shattered dreams

    Go!


    Jamie had a chance, well she really did (whoa)
    Instead she dropped out and had a couple of kids (whoa)
    Mark still lives at home cause he's got no job (whoa)
    Just plays guitar, smokes a lot of pot (whoa)

    Jay commited suicide (whoa)
    Brandon OD'd and died (whoa)
    What the hell is going on?
    Cruellest dream, reality


    Chances blown, nothings free
    Longing for what used to be
    Still, its hard, hard to see
    Fragile lives, shattered dreams

    Go!

    Chances blown, nothings free
    Longing for what used to be
    Still, its hard, hard to see
    Fragile lives, shattered dreams

    Little - Something Corporate

    Climbing out of the sky a man who could fly and a painting anyone could play.
    It's a comic book crush that taught you to trust.
    Staring out of the stands at a rock n roll band
    and a hero no one else could save, it was never much but it's all that you gave.

    And I wonder if you wonder, or did your stars finally explode?
    Did the thunder pull you underneath the haze?
    I'm amazed, then I let go.

    Little minds let little pain burn big old dreams with little flames,
    and you don't think I understand.
    Little holes in parachutes won't leave you falling,
    if they do, it's because you want to land.

    Climbing out of his chair to fix the T.V. glare is a man
    but no one knows he's there.
    It's a Dramamine dream that kept them alive but lost.
    She's got her plastic friends and a brand new Benz and she laughs,
    "Hell, sometimes life ain't fair"
    It's a comic book crush that got them nowhere.

    And I wonder if you wonder, or did your stars finally explode?
    Did the thunder pull you underneath the haze?
    I'm amazed, then I let go.

    Little minds let little pain burn big old dreams with little flames,
    and you don't think I understand.
    Little holes in parachutes won't leave you falling,
    if they do, it's because you want to land.

    These elevator doors are closing again you leave before I planned.
    I taste you walking down the hall.
    You left your perfume on the nightstand.

    Little minds let little pain burn big old dreams with little flames,
    and you don't think I understand.
    Little holes in parachutes won't leave you falling,
    if they do, it's because you want to land.

    Dream Of You Schiller lyrics
    Artist: Schiller
    Album: Voyage
    Year: 2002
    Title: Dream Of You


    I've been here all the time
    as far as i know doing right
    i've always waited for the moment
    that you would come through my door
    but this brought loneliness ... so far
    i lay my hand onto my heart
    is this a life i want to live?
    is this the dream i had of you?

    ... the dream i had of you?

    now i'm standing here alone
    waiting on my own
    for something that will fill the emptiness inside...
    the moment that you're mine
    bit this is loneliness ... i know
    i lay my hand onto my soul
    is this what life has got to give?
    is this the dream i had of you?

    ... the dream i had of you?

    Oi the World by the Vandals, covered by No Doubt.

    Haji was a punk just like any other boy
    And he never had no trouble until he started up his Oi band,
    safe in the garage or singing in the tub.
    Till Haji went to far and he plugged in at the pub

    Twas a cold Christmas eve when Trevor and the skins
    popped in for a pint and to nick a back of crisps
    Trevor liked the music but not the Unity
    So he unwound Haji's turban and knocked him to his knees

    If god came down on Christmas Day
    I know exactly what he'd say
    He'd say "Oi to the punks and Oi to the skins-
    but Oi to the world and everybody wins!"


    Haji was a bloody mess, he ran out thru the crowd
    he said "we'll meet again we are bloody but not unbowed"
    Trevor called his bluff and told him where to meet
    Christmas day on the roof down 20 Oxford street

    If god came down on Christmas Day
    I know exactly what he'd say
    He'd say "Oi to the punks and Oi to the skins-
    but Oi to the world and everybody wins!"


    On the roof with the nun chucks Trevor broke a lot of bones
    But Haji had a sword like that guy in Indiana Jones

    Police sirens wailing, a bloody dying man,
    Haji was alone and abandoned his band
    Trevor was there fading and still so full of hate
    when the skins left him there and went down the fire escape

    But then Haji saw the north star shining more then ever
    So he made a tourniquet from his turban saving Trevor
    the repelled down the roof with the rest of the turban
    and went back to the pub where they bought each other bourbon

    If god came down on Christmas Day
    I know exactly what he'd say
    He'd say "Oi to the punks and Oi to the skins-
    but Oi to the world and everybody wins!"

    And a new song

    Nelly Furtado: All good things

    Honestly what will become of me
    Don't like reality
    It's way too clear to me
    But really life is dandy
    We are what we don't see
    Miss everything daydreaming

    Flames to dust
    Lovers to friends
    Why do all good things come to an end

    Flames to dust
    Lovers to friends
    Why do all good things come to an end

    Traveling I always stop at exits
    Wondering if I'll stay
    Young and restless
    Living this way I stress less
    I want to pull away when the dream dies
    The pain sets in and I don't cry
    I only feel gravity and I wonder why

    Flames to dust
    Lovers to friends
    Why do all good things come to an end

    Flames to dust
    Lovers to friends
    Why do all good things come to an end

    And the dogs were whistling a new tune
    Barking at the new moon
    Hoping it would come soon
    So that they could..

    Dogs were whistling a new tune
    Barking at the new moon
    Hoping it would come soon
    soon so that they could die

    Diee..... Diee..... Diee......

    Flames to dust
    Lovers to friends
    Why do all good things come to an end

    Flames to dust
    Lovers to friends
    Why do all good things come to an end

    When the dogs were barking at the new moon
    Whistling a new tune
    Hoping it would come soon

    And the sun was wondering if it should stay away for a day
    Til the feeling went away
    And the sky was falling and the clouds were dropping
    And the rainfall forgot how to bring salvation
    The dogs were barking at the new moon
    Whistling a new tune hoping it would come soon
    So that they could die

    Pearl Jam - Black

    Hey... oooh...
    Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
    Were laid spread out before me as her body once did.
    All five horizons revolved around her soul
    As the earth to the sun
    Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn

    Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
    Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
    And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds
    Of what was everything.
    Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...

    I take a walk outside
    I'm surrounded by some kids at play
    I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear?
    Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head
    I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning
    How quick the sun can drop away

    And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
    Of what was everything?
    All the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...

    All the love gone bad turned my world to black
    Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll be...

    I know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
    I know you'll be a sun in somebody else's sky, but why
    Why, why can't it be, why can't it be mine...
