"Seize the Day" by Avenged Sevenfold
Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over
I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
But I'm too young to worry
These streets we travel on will undergo our same lost past
I found you here, now please just stay for a while
I can move on with you around
I hand you my mortal life, but will it be forever?
I'd do anything for a smile, holding you 'til our time is done
We both know the day will come, but I don't want to leave you
I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
But I'm too young to worry (a melody, a memory, or just one picture)
Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over
Newborn life replacing all of us, changing this fable we live in
No longer needed here so where do we go?
Will you take a journey tonight, follow me past the walls of death?
But girl, what if there is no eternal life?
I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
But I'm too young to worry (a melody, a memory, or just one picture)
Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over
Trials in life, questions of us existing here, don't wanna die alone without you here
Please tell me what we have is real
So, what if I never hold you, yeah, or kiss your lips again?
Woooaaah, so I never want to leave you and the memories for us to see
I beg don't leave me
Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over
Trials in life, questions of us existing here, don't wanna die alone without you here
Please tell me what we have is real
Silence you lost me, no chance for one more day
I stand here alone
Falling away from you, no chance to get back home
I was once a treehouse
I lived in a cake
but I never saw the way the orange slayed the raked
I was only three years dead
but it told a tale
now please listen, little child
to the safety rail
Did you ever see a llama
kiss a llama on the llama
llama's llama
tastes of llama
llama llama duck
Half a llama
twice a llama
not a llama
farmer llama
llama in a car
alarm a llama
llama duck
Is that how it's told now?
Is it all so old?
Is it made of lemon juice?
Doorknob, ankle, cold
Now my song is getting thin
I've run out of luck!
Time for me to retire now
and become a duck.
Infinite dreams I can't deny them, infinity is hard to comprehend
I couldn't hear those screams even in my wildest dreams
Suffocation waking in a sweat, scared to fall asleep again
In case the dream begins again
Someone chasing I cannot move, standing rigid a nightmare's statue
What a dream when will it end and will I transcend?
Restless sleep the minds in turmoil, one nightmare ends another fertile
Getting to me so scared to sleep but scared to wake now, in too deep
Even though its reached new heights I rather like the restless nights
It makes me wonder it makes me think there's more to this I'm on the brink
It's not the fear of what's beyond it's just that I might not respond
I have an interest almost craving but would I like to get too far in?
It can't all be coincidence too many things are evident
You tell me you're an unbeliever, spiritualist? Well me I'm neither
But wouldn't you like to know the truth of what's out there to have the proof
And find out just which side you're on, where would you end in Heaven or in Hell?
Help me – help me to find my true self without seeing the future
Save me – save me from torturing myself even within my dreams
(4:39 – Solo: Dave Murray)
(4:51 – Solo: Adrian Smith)
There's got to be just more to it than this or tell me why do we exist
I'd like to think that when I die I'd get a chance another time
And to return and live again, reincarnate, play the game
Again and again and again and again

"Swing Swing" by The All-American Rejects
Days swiftly come and go
I'm dreaming of her
She's seeing other guys
Emotions they stir
The sun is gone the nights are long
And I am left while the tears fall
Did you think that I would cry on the phone?
Do you know what it feels like being alone?
I'll find someone new
Swing, swing from the tangles of
My heart is crushed by a former love
Can you help me find a way to carry on again?
Wish cast into the sky
I'm moving on
Sweet beginnings do arise
She knows I was wrong
The notes are old
They bend they fold
And so do I to a new love
Did you think that I would cry on the phone?
Do you know what it feels like being alone?
I'll find someone new
Swing, swing from the tangles of
My heart is crushed by a former love
Can you help me find a way to carry on again?
Bury me (you thought your problems were gone)
Carry me (away, away, away...)
Swing, swing from the tangles of
My heart is crushed by a former love
Can you help me find a way to carry on again?
Swing, swing from the tangles of
My heart is crushed by a former love
Can you help me find a way to carry on again?
Swing, swing from the tangles of
My heart is crushed by a former love
Can you help me find a way to carry on again?
I don't think many people will bother to read all the lyrics people post, but...
Guns N Roses - Civil War
"WHAT WE'VE GOT HERE IS FAILURE TO COMMUNICATE.
SOME MEN YOU JUST CAN'T REACH...
SO, YOU GET WHAT WE HAD HERE LAST WEEK,
WHICH IS THE WAY HE WANTS IT!
WELL, HE GETS IT!
N' I DON'T LIKE IT ANY MORE THAN YOU MEN." *
(whistle)
Look at your young men fighting
Look at your women crying
Look at your young men dying
The way they've always done before
Look at the hate we're breeding
Look at the fear we're feeding
Look at the lives we're leading
The way we've always done before
My hands are tied
The billions shift from side to side
And the wars go on with brainwashed pride
For the love of God and our human rights
And all these things are swept aside
By bloody hands time can't deny
And are washed away by your genocide
And history hides the lies of our civil wars
D'you wear a black armband
When they shot the man
Who said "Peace could last forever"
And in my first memories
They shot Kennedy
I went numb when I learned to see
So I never fell for Vietnam
We got the wall of D.C. to remind us all
That you can't trust freedom
When it's not in your hands
When everybody's fightin'
For their promised land
And
I don't need your civil war
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh
I don't need your civil war
Ow, oh no, no, no, no, no
Look at the shoes you're filling
Look at the blood we're spilling
Look at the world we're killing
The way we've always done before
Look in the doubt we've wallowed
Look at the leaders we've followed
Look at the lies we've swallowed
And I don't want to hear no more
My hands are tied
For all I've seen has changed my mind
But still the wars go on as the years go by
With no love of God or human rights
'Cause all these dreams are swept aside
By bloody hands of the hypnotized
Who carry the cross of homicide
And history bears the scars of our civil wars
"WE PRACTICE SELECTIVE ANNIHILATION OF MAYORS AND
GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS FOR EXAMPLE TO CREATE A VACUUM
THEN WE FILL THAT VACUUM AS POPULAR WAR ADVANTAGE
PEACE IS CLOSER" **
I don't need your civil war
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh
And I don't need your civil war
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
I don't need your civil war
I don't need your civil war
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh
I don't need your civil war
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no uh-oh-uh, no uh-oh, uh no
I don't need one more war
I don't need one more war
No, no, no, no uh-oh-uh, no uh-oh, uh no
WHAZ SO CIVIL 'BOUT WAR ANYWAY?

Love is a razor and I walked the line on that silver blade
Slept in the dust with his daughter, her eyes red with the slaughter of innocence
But I will pray for her, I will call her name out loud
I would bleed for her, if I could only see her now
Living on a razor's edge, balancing on a ledge
Living on a razor's edge, balancing on a ledge
Balancing on a ledge, living on a razor's edge
Balancing on a ledge, you know, you know
The evil that men do lives on and on...
The evil that men do lives on and on...
The evil that men do lives on and on...
The evil that men do lives on and on...
Circle of fire my baptism of joy at an end it seems
The seventh lamb slain, the book of life opens before me
And I will pray for you, someday I may return
Don't you cry for me, beyond is where I learn
Living on a razor's edge, balancing on a ledge
Living on a razor's edge, you know, you know
The evil that men do lives on and on...
The evil that men do lives on and on...
The evil that men do lives on and on...
The evil that men do lives on and on...
(3:15 – Solo: Adrian Smith)
Living on a razor's edge, balancing on a ledge
Living on a razor's edge, you know, you know
The evil that men do lives on and on...
The evil that men do lives on and on...
The evil that men do lives on and on...
The evil that men do lives on and on...
The evil, the evil, the evil that men do
The evil, the evil, the evil that men do

"Let's Not Shit Ourselves (To Love and Be Loved)" by Bright Eyes
The animals laugh from the dark of the wilderness. A baby cried hard in an apartment complex,
as I pass in a car buried under the influence. The city is driving me out of my mind.
I have seen a child is caught in the sad trap of gravity.
He falls from the lowest branch of the apple tree and lands in the grass and weeps for his dignity.
Next time he will not aim so high. Yeah, next time, neither will I.
A mother takes loans out, sends her kids off to colleges.
Her family is reduced to names on a shopping list.
Meanwhile, a coroner kneels beneath a great, wooden crucifix.
He know that there are worse things than being alone.
I have learned to retreat at the first sign of danger.
I mean, why wait around, if it's just to surrender? Ambition, I have found, can only lead to failure.
I do not read the reviews. No, I am not singing for you.
I stood dropping a coin into the pit of a well. And I would throw my whole billfold
if I thought it would help. With all these wishes I make,
I should buy something real, at least a telephone call home.
My teachers, they built the retaining wall memory, all those multiple choices I answered so quickly.
And I got my grades back and forgot just as easily, but as least I got an A.
So I don't have them to blame. I should stop pointing fingers;
reserve my judgment of all those public action figures, the cowboy president.
So loud behind the bullhorn so proud they can't admit when they have made a mistake.
While poison ink spews from a speechwriter's pen, he knows that he doesn't have to say it,
so it don't bother him. "Honesty" "Accuracy" are really just "Popular Opinion."
And the approval rating is high, so someone is going to die. ABC, NBC, CBS: Bullshit.
They give us fact or fiction? I guess an even split. And each new act of war is tonight's entertainment.
We are still the pawns in their game. As they take an eye for an eye until no one can see,
we must stumble blindly forward, repeating history. Well, I guess that we all fit into your slogan
on the fast food marquee: Red blooded, White skinned oh and the Blues.
I got the Blues! I got the Blues! That's me! That's me!
Well, I awoke in relief. My sheets and tubes were all tangled weak from whiskey and pills,
in a Chicago hospital. My father was there, in a chair, by the window, staring so far away.
I tried talking, just whispered, "...so sorry...so selfish..." He stopped me and said,
"Child I love you regardless and there is nothing you could do that would ever change this.
I'm not angry. It happens. You just can't do it again."
So now I try to keep up, I have been exchanging my currency.
While a million objects pass through my periphery. So now I am rubbing my eyes because
they are starting to bother me. I have been staring too long at the screen.
But where was it when I first heard the sound of humility? It came to my ears in the goddamn
loveliest melody. How grateful I was then to be part of the mystery,
to love and be loved. Let's just hope that is enough.
I feel your reflection
But you're a stranger to me
I saw you staring back now
Your shadow right next to me
Can you be, my enemy, my disease
Looking through, whats left of you to hold on to
Drowning, hold my head down under
Waiting, you touch but you cant feel
You want to break my silence
You know you have too much to lose
You think that you're so homely
You think you're breaking me in two
Cover me, in misery, in anything
Im still here, you're still here, am I still here?
Drowning, hold my head down under
Waiting, you touch but you cant feel
Drown in silence, in my violence
Drown in silence, things are better left undone
Can you be, my enemy, my disease
Looking through, whats left of you to hold on to
Drowning, hold my down under
Waiting, you touch what you cant feel
Gravity Kills : Last (One of my favorites)
I'd tear my heart out for you
Cross a mountain for you
I'd give myself up for your skin
Open up, I'm falling in
Chorus:
What I give
What I give
Take from me
What I am
It's the last day of you
I watched the last day of you
A lot has passed, I told you
The world surrounding us has gone
The world surrounding us goes on
Chorus (x2)
Feel my hands upon you
To feel my last touch of you
You feel my breath across your skin
Let go of all you hold within
Now that I know that the right time has come my prediction will surely be true
The impending disaster it looms and the whole of the village is doomed
Why won't you listen to me? Is it so hard to understand
That I am the real seventh son? Your life or death on me depends
Suffering and pain impending disaster, souls crying the devil's laughter
I've heard the cry of the seven whistlers, Lucifer smiles looks on and waits
I'll take your life in my hands, your fate your fortune's in my visions
Heed what I say and you'll see what will be, please listen to me
(2:22 – Solo: Dave Murray)
Now that they see the disaster is done, now they put all the blame unto me
They feel I brought on a curse don't they know that the torment it stays
With me knowing that I walk alone, through the eyes of the future I see
They don't even know what fear is, don't they know I'm the one who is cursed
Purgatory beckons souls lost forever, life after death or heaven hereafter
Heard the call of the seven whistlers again, now Lucifer laughs hell awaits
I had their lives in my hands, their fate their fortunes in my visions
No one believed in my true prophecy and now it's too late
