"Fix You"
When you try your best, but you don't succeed When you get what you want, but not what you need When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep Stuck in reverse And the tears come streaming down your face When you lose something you can't replace When you love someone, but it goes to waste Could it be worse? Lights will guide you home And ignite your bones And I will try to fix you And high up above or down below When you're too in love to let it go But if you never try you'll never know Just what you're worth Lights will guide you home And ignite your bones And I will try to fix you Tears stream down your face When you lose something you cannot replace Tears stream down your face And I... Tears stream down on your face I promise you I will learn from my mistakes Tears stream down your face And I... Lights will guide you home And ignite your bones And I will try to fix you Courtesy of Coldplay |

"I'll be around" -> Neko Case and her Boyfriends
When you tire of all the bright lights Pace thats killing and your willing to stay home nights When your feet are back on the solid ground Look for me I'll be around When the new crowd starts to bore you Just remember there is someone to adore you When your weary of nights out on the town Look for me I'll be around May not seem exciting Way those others do I've a notion, my devotion You will need some day as I need you When the kicks gone that it brings you You will hanker for an anchor just to cling too When you've lived it up 'til it's got you down Look for me, Look for me, Look for me, I'll be around |

'Horse With No Name' - America
On the first part of the journey I was looking at all the life There were plants and birds and rocks and things There was sand and hills and rings The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz And the sky with no clouds The heat was hot and the ground was dry But the air was full of sound Ive been through the desert on a horse with no name It felt good to be out of the rain In the desert you can remember your name cause there aint no one for to give you no pain La, la ... After two days in the desert sun My skin began to turn red After three days in the desert fun I was looking at a river bed And the story it told of a river that flowed Made me sad to think it was dead You see Ive been through the desert on a horse with no name It felt good to be out of the rain In the desert you can remember your name cause there aint no one for to give you no pain La, la ... After nine days I let the horse run free cause the desert had turned to sea There were plants and birds and rocks and things There was sand and hills and rings The ocean is a desert with its life underground And a perfect disguise above Under the cities lies a heart made of ground But the humans will give no love You see Ive been through the desert on a horse with no name It felt good to be out of the rain In the desert you can remember your name cause there aint no one for to give you no pain La, la ... |

redneck woman
Well I ain't never Been the barbie doll type No I can't swig that sweet champagne I'd rather drink beer all night In a tavern or in a honky tonk Or on a 4 wheel drive tailgate I've got posters on my wall of Skynard, Kid and Strait Some people look down on me But I don't give a rip I'll stand barefooted in my own front yard with a baby on my hip Cause I'm a redneck woman And I ain't no high class broad I'm just a product of my raisin' And I say "hey y'all" and "Yee Haw" And I keep my Christmas lights on, on my front porch all year long And I know all the words to every Charlie Daniels song So here's to all my sisters out there keepin' it country Let me get a big "Hell Yeah" from the redneck girls like me Hell Yeah Hell Yeah Victoria's Secret Well their stuff's real nice Oh but I can buy the same damn thing on a Wal*Mart shelf half price And still look sexy Just as sexy As those models on TV No I don't need no designer tag to make my man want me You might think I'm trashy A little too hard core But get in my neck of the woods I'm just the girl next door Hey I'm redneck woman And I ain't no high class broad I'm just a product of my raisin' And I say "hey y'all" and "Yee Haw" And I keep my Christmas lights on, on my front porch all year long And I know all the words to every Tanya Tucker song So here's to all my sisters out there keeping it country Let me get a big "Hell Yeah" from the redneck girls like me Hell Yeah Hell Yeah I'm redneck woman And I ain't no high class broad I'm just a product of my raisin' And I say "hey y'all" and "Yee Haw" And I keep my Christmas lights on, on my front porch all year long And I know all the words to every Ol' Bocephus song So here's to all my sisters out there keeping it country Let me get a big "Hell Yeah" from the redneck girls like me Hell Yeah Hell Yeah Hell Yeah Hell Yeah Hell Yeah Hell Yeah I Said Hell Yeah |

I'm wishing it was Styx:
Is it any wonder I'm not crazy? is it any wonder I'm sane at all Well I'm so tired of losing- I got nothing to do and all day to do it I go out cruisin but I've no place to go and all night to get there Is it any wonder I'm not a criminal? Is it any wonder I'm not in jail? Is it any wonder I've got Too much time on my hands, its ticking away with my sanity I've got too much time on my hands, its hard to believe such a calamity I've got too much time on my hands and its ticking away from me Too much time on my hands, too much time on my hands Too much time on my hands |

dont know where Im going But, I sure know where Ive been Hanging on the promises In songs of yesterday An Ive made up my mind, I aint wasting no more time But, here I go again Here I go again Tho I keep searching for an answer, I never seem to find what Im looking for Oh lord, I pray You give me strength to carry on, cos I know what it means To walk along the lonely street of dreams An here I go again on my own Goin down the only road Ive ever known, Like a hobo* I was born to walk alone An Ive made up my mind I aint wasting no more time Im just another heart in need of rescue, Waiting on loves sweet charity An Im gonna hold on For the rest of my days, cos I know what it means To walk along the lonely street of dreams An here I go again on my own Goin down the only road Ive ever known, Like a hobo* I was born to walk alone An Ive made up my mind I aint wasting no more time But, here I go again, Here I go again, Here I go again, Here I go... An Ive made up my mind, I aint wasting no more time An here I go again on my own Goin down the only road Ive ever known, Like a hobo I was born to walk alone cos I know what it means To walk along the lonely street of dreams An here I go again on my own Goin down the only road Ive ever known, Like a hobo I was born to walk alone An Ive made up my mind I aint wasting no more time... But, here I go again, Here I go again, Here I go again, Here I go, Here I go again... |

You May Be Right Lyrics Artist(Band):Billy Joel Review The Song (0) Print the Lyrics Send polyphonic ringtone to your cell phone Friday night I crashed your party Saturday I said I'm sorry Sunday came and trashed me out again I was only having fun Wasn't hurting anyone And we all enjoyed the weekend for a change I've been stranded in the combat zone I walked through Bedford Stuy alone Even rode my motorcycle in the rain And you told me not to drive But I made it home alive So you said that only proves that I'm insane You may be right I may be crazy But it just might be a lunatic you're looking for Turn out the light Don't try to save me You may be wrong for all I know But you may be right Remember how I found you there Alone in your electric chair I told you dirty jokes until you smiled You were lonely for a man I said take me as I am 'Cause you might enjoy some madness for awhile Now think of all the years you tried to Find someone to satisfy you I might be as crazy as you say If I'm crazy then it's true That it's all because of you And you wouldn't want me any other way You may be right I may be crazy But it just may be a lunatic you're looking for It's too late to fight It's too late to change me You may be wrong for all I know But you may be right You may be right I may be crazy But it just might be a lunatic you're looking for Turn out the light Don't try to save me You may be wrong for all I know But you may be right You may be wrong but you may be right You may be wrong but you may be right |

I've had a couple of days to think of a song that reflects who I am and I finally came up with mine:
Settlin by Sugarland, this is my story and I'm stickin to it Fifteen minutes left to throw me together For Mr. Right Now, not Mr. Forever Don't know why I even try when I know how it ends Lookin' like another, "Maybe we can be friends." I've been leaving it up to fate It's my life so it's mine to make Chorus: I ain't settlin' For just getting by I've had enough so-so For the rest of my life Tired of shooting too low So raise the bar high "Just enough," ain't enough this time I ain't settlin' for anything less than everything With some good red wine And my brand new shoes Gonna dance a blue streak around my living room Take a chance on love, and try how it feels With my heart wide open Yeah, you know I will Find what it means to be the girl Who changed her mind And changed the world Repeat chorus I ain't settlin' For just getting by I've had enough so-so For the rest of my life Tired of shooting too low So raise the bar high "Just enough," ain't enough this time I ain't settlin' For just getting by I've had enough so-so For the rest of my life Tired of shooting too low So raise the bar high I ain't settlin' No, no, no, no, no, no So raise the bar high, high |

Goo Goo Dolls - Better Days Lyrics
And you ask me what i want this year and i try to make this good and clear just a chance that maybe we'll find better days cause i don't need boxes wrapped in strings and designer love and empty things, just a chance that maybe we'll find better days Chorus: so take these words and sing out loud cause everyone is forgiven now cause tonight's the night the world begins again and its someplace simple where we could live and something only you can give and let's faith and trust and peace while we're alive and the one poor child who saved this world and there's 10 million more who probably could if we all just stopped and said a prayer for them so take these words and sing out loud cause everyone is forgiven now cause tonight's the night the world begins again i wish everyone was loved tonight and somehow stop this endless fight just a chance that maybe we'll find better days so take these words and sing out loud cause everyone is forgiven now cause tonight's the night the world begins again cause tonight's the night the world begins again |

What's going on.......4 non blondes
Twenty-five years and my life is still Trying to get up that great big hill of hope For a destination And I realized quickly when I knew I should That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man For whatever that means And so I cry sometimes When I'm lying in bed Just to get it all out What's in my head And I am feeling a little peculiar And so I wake in the morning And I step outside And I take a deep breath and I get real high And I scream at the top of my lungs What's going on? And I say, hey hey hey hey I said hey, what's going on? ooh, ooh ooh and I try, oh my god do I try I try all the time, in this institution And I pray, oh my god do I pray I pray every single day For a revolution And so I cry sometimes When I'm lying in bed Just to get it all out What's in my head And I am feeling a little peculiar And so I wake in the morning And I step outside And I take a deep breath and I get real high And I scream at the top of my lungs What's going on? And I say, hey hey hey hey I said hey, what's going on? Twenty-five years and my life is still Trying to get up that great big hill of hope For a destination |

Such Great Heights
I am thinking it's a sign that the freckles in our eyes are mirror images and when we kiss they're perfectly aligned And I have to speculate that God himself did make us into corresponding shapes like puzzle pieces from the clay And true, it may seem like a stretch but its thoughts like this that catch my troubled head when you're away when I am missing you to death when you are out there on the road for several weeks of shows and when you scan the radio I hope this song will guide you home They will see us waving from such great heights, come down now, they'll say but everything looks perfect from far away, come down now, but we'll stay... I tried my best to leave this all on your machine but the persistent beat it sounded thin upon listening and that frankly will not fly you will hear the shrillest highs and lowest lows with the windows down when this is guiding you home They will see us waving from such great heights, come down now, they'll say but everything looks perfect from far away come down now, but we'll stay... They will see us waving from such great heights, come down now, they'll say but everything looks perfect from far away come down now, but we'll stay... |

AVRIL LAVIGNE.........SO MUCH FOR MY HAPPY ENDING
So much for my happy ending oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh Oh oh, oh oh, oh... Let's talk this over It's not like we're dead Was it something I did? Was it something You said? Don't leave me hanging In a city so dead Held up so high On such a breakable thread You were all the things I thought I knew And I thought we could be CHORUS You were everything, everything that I wanted We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it All of the memories, so close to me, just fade away All this time you were pretending So much for my happy ending oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh Oh oh, oh oh You've got your dumb friends I know what they say They tell you I'm difficult But so are they But they don't know me Do they even know you? All the things you hide from me All the **** that you do You were all the things I thought I knew And I thought we could be CHORUS It's nice to know that you were there Thanks for acting like you cared And making me feel like I was the only one It's nice to know we had it all Thanks for watching as I fall And letting me know we were done CHORUS X 2 oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh... |

Simple Man
Mama told me when I was young Come sit beside me, my only son And listen closely to what I say. And if you do this It will help you some sunny day. Take your time... dont live too fast, Troubles will come and they will pass. Go find a woman and youll find love, And dont forget son, There is someone up above. (chorus) And be a simple kind of man. Be something you love and understand. Be a simple kind of man. Wont you do this for me son, If you can? Forget your lust for the rich mans gold All that you need is in your soul, And you can do this if you try. All that I want for you my son, Is to be satisfied. (chorus) Boy, dont you worry... youll find yourself. Follow you heart and nothing else. And you can do this if you try. All I want for you my son, Is to be satisfied. (chorus) |
