Poorman's Grave

by: Eraserheads

 

I know a man who had nothing

He was a poor man all his life

He lived in a shack by the roadside

With starving kids and a loving wife

 

He went to church every Sunday

He prays from morning until night, he said

Good Lord, why have you forsaken me

When everything I did I thought was right

 

Now my life is coming to an end

There’s only one thing I’m wishing for

All my days I have never sinned

So I hope you wont ignore

What I’m asking for

 

Oh honey when I die

Dress me up in a coat and tie

Give my feet a pair of shoes

That I haven’t wore in a long time

Put me in a golden box

Not a cross on a pile of rocks

Bury me where the grass is green

And the gates are shining

 

Oh honey when I die

Give me a bed of roses

Where I could lie

I’m gonna use up all the money that I saved

Coz I dont wanna lie in a poor man’s grave

 

I know a man who had nothing

He dreamed of satin sheets all his life

He lived and worked like a dog

Licking every boot he sees just to survive

 

He comes home drunk every night

Wakes up the kids and talks to his wife, he said

Honey you have been so good to me

I only wish we had a better life

 

And now my life’s coming to an end

There’s only one thing I’m wishing for

All my days I have lived in shame

So I hope you wont ignore

Just what I’m asking for

 

Oh honey when I die

Dress me up in a coat and tie

Give my feet a pair of shoes

That I haven’t wore in a long time

Put me in a golden box

Not a cross on a pile of rocks

Bury me where the grass is green

And the gates are shining

 

Oh honey when I die

Give me a bed of roses

Where I could lie

I’m gonna use up all the money that I saved

Coz I dont wanna lie in a poor man’s

 

Oh honey when I die

Give me a bed of roses

Where I could lie

I’m gonna use up all the money that I saved

Coz I dont wanna lie in a poor man’s grave

"Not I"

- Demon Hunter

 

So now you're suffering the fallacy of what you said

When you uncover the depression from where you've tread

Breathe over the glass you wrote on

Swallow all that you waste your throat on

You wear the mark and wave the banner they made with sin

Revealing every single lie that you've been breeding within

Wash over the skin you've broken

Think over the tone you spoke in

 

[Pre-chorus:]

So lost in your affliction / addiction

The solemn comfort your grave

If you close your eyes the light can't take it away

 

[Chorus:]

Not I - I won't conform to what I see in you

Not I - I won't surrender what I am

Not I - And even if it was a part of me

Not I - I'll never be that way again

 

The blind will follow on the path that you created in vain

No guiding light, but just the shadow of the dead will remain

Dig open the pain you're hiding

Give your hand to the faith you're fighting

The void you suffer is a curse forever bleeding inside

Now you embrace the fatal sickness you should despise

Remember the day you lost that

Where is the shame that will bring your soul back

 

[Pre-chorus]

 

[Chorus]

 

Reach back behind your pride

And pull the thorn from the burning pain in your side

 

Sing me a new song

A broken song of redemption and regret

Sing me a new song

And beg for all the mercy you can get

 

[Chorus]

"The Last Time"

 

The first time I fell in love was long ago.

I didn't know how to give my love at all.

The next time I settled for what felt so close.

But without romance, you're never gonna fall.

After everything I've learned;

Now it's finally my turn.

This is the last time I'll fall... in love.

The first time we walked under that starry sky,

there was a moment when everything was clear.

I didn't need to ask or even wonder why, because each question is answered when your near.

and I'm wise enough to know when a miracle unfolds, this is the last time i'll fall in love.

Now don't hold back, just let me know.

Could i be moving much too fast or way too slow.

'Cause all of my life, I've waited for this day.

To find that once in a lifetime, this is it, I'll never be the same.

You'll never know what it's taken me to say these words.

And now that I've said them, they could never be enough.

As far as I can see, there's only you and only me.

 

This is the last time I'll fall in love.

Last time i'll fall in love.

The last time i'll fall... in love.

In a Rush

 

It came over me in a rush

when I realized that i love you so much

that sometimes i cry

but I cant tell you why

why I feel what i feel inside

whats been troublin' my mind

but still I cant find the words

but I know that somethings got a hold of me

 

It came over me in a rush

when I realized that i love you so much

that sometimes i cry

but I cant tell you why

why I feel what i feel inside

 

baby someday ill find a way to say

just what you mean to me

but if that day never comes along

and you dont hear this song

i guess you'll never know

it came over me in a rush

when I realized that i love you so much

that sometimes i cry

but I cant tell you why

why I feel what i feel in

feel what I feel inside

 

and when i say inside I mean deep

you fill my soul

and thats something I cant explain

its over me

 

cuz it came over me in a rush

when Ii realized that I love you so much

that sometimes I cry

but I cant tell you why

why I feel what I feel inside

but I cant tell you why

why I feel what i feel inside

 

It came over me in a rush

when I realized that i love you so much

How I try to express what's been troublin' my mind

Repeat 1

Baby, some day I'll find a way to say

just what you mean to me

But if that day never comes along

and you don't hear this song

I guess you'll never know that...

Repeat 1

And when I say inside, I mean deep

You fill my soul with something I can't explain

It's over me

All or Nothing

 

know when he's been on your mind

that distant look is in your eyes

i thought with time you'd realize it's over, over

 

it's not the way i choose to live

and something somewhere's got to give

as sharing this relationship gets older , older

 

you know i'd fight for you

but how can i fight someone who ism't even there

i've had the rest of you , now i want to best of you

i don't care if that's not fair

 

chorus

cause i want it all or nothing at all

there's no where left to fall

when you reach the bottem, it's now or never

is it all, or are we just friends

is this how it ends, with a simple telephone call

you leave me here, with nothing at all

 

there are times it seems to me

i'm sharing you in memories

i feel it in my heart but i don't show it,show it

and then there's times you look at me

as though i'm all that you can see

there's times i don't believe it's right, i know it, know it

 

don't make me promises

baby you never did know how to keep them well

i've had the rest of you, now i want the best of you

it's time for show and tell

 

CHORUS

 

Cause you and I

Could lose it all if you've got no more room

nowhere, inside, for me in your life

 

Cause I want it all or nothing at all

There's no where left to fall its now or never

 

(key change)

Is it all or nothing at all

Theres no where left to fall

When you reach the bottom, it's now or never

Is it all, or are we just friends

Is this how it ends, with a simple telephone call

You leave me here, with nothing at all x2

Most Beautiful Girl

 

Ooo girl I'd walk a hundred miles

To see your pretty face each time you smile

There is no distance for me, long as I can believe

I'll see you tonight

Simply no distance for me, girl you gotta believe

I need you tonight

 

I'll never forget, the first time I set

My eyes on you I thought I would die

You were my lovely day, took my breath away

Now I'm walking with my head to the sky

 

[CHORUS:]

You are the most beautiful girl, I've ever seen in this world

You came in my life just in time

You are the most beautiful girl, I just gotta tell the world

She's all mine

 

I just can't find the words to say

This kind of feeling don't come every day

It feels like heaven to me, love has given me wings

Girl you light up my life

You feel like heaven to me, every day's like a dream

Having you by my side

 

I'll never forget, the first time I set

My eyes on you I thought I would cry

It was my lucky day, when you came my way

'N I'm still walking with my head to the Sky

 

[CHORUS]

 

Oh girl

The sun and the moon, the starrs in the skies

They don't shine as bright as the light in your eyes

And it brightens my day, when I realize

In just a few hours I'll be holding you tight

Burn

 

Do you wanna be a poet and write

Do you wanna be an actor up in lights

Do you wanna be a soldier and fight for love

Do you wanna travel the world

Do you wanna be a diver for pearls

Or climb a mountain and touch the clouds above

Be anyone you want to be

Bring to life your fantasies

But I want something in return

I want you to burn, burn for me baby

Like a candle in my night

Oh burn

Burn for me

Burn for me

Are you gonna be a gambler and deal

Are you gonna be a doctor and heal

Or go to heaven and touch God's face

Are you gonna be a dreamer who sleeps

Are you gonna be a sinner who weeps

Or an angel

Under grace

Ill lay down on your bed of coals

Offer up my heart and soul

But in return

I want you to burn

Burn for me baby

Like a candle in my night

Oh burn burn for me burn for me

Yeah

Ooh

I want you to burn baby ooh

Laugh for me

Cry for me

Pray for me

Lie for me

Live for me

Die for me

I want you to burn

Burn for me baby

Like a candle in my night

Oh burn burn for me burn for me

Yeah

Ah yeah

I want you to burn

I want you to burn for me baby

Ohh yeah

Don't know why by Norah Jones

 

I waited 'til I saw the sun

I don't know why I didn't come

I left you by the house of fun

I don't know why I didn't come

I don't know why I didn't come

 

When I saw the break of day

I wished that I could fly away

Instead of kneeling in the sand

Catching teardrops in my hand

 

My heart is drenched in wine

But you'll be on my mind

Forever

 

Out across the endless sea

I would die in ecstasy

But I'll be a bag of bones

Driving down the road along

 

My heart is drenched in wine

But you'll be on my mind

Forever

 

Something has to make you run

I don't know why I didn't come

I feel as empty as a drum

I don't know why I didn't come

I don't know why I didn't come

I don't know why I didn't come

"Bite The Bullet"

- Machine Head

 

I understand your every fear

Your every pain your every tear

With every struggle you conquer

Turn heart to steel

And will to iron

 

You want more?

You'll get it

Determined, ferocious

Grit down and bite the bullet

Dare to unbind

Smash and redefine

 

The hate you feel is nothing more

Than love you feel to win this war

The battle that rages inside you

With bloodlust

You must unchain your shackles

 

You want more?

You'll get it

Determined, ferocious

Grit down and bite the bullet

Dare to unbind

Smash and redefine

 

Lion heart

Never give in

Unsatisfy every weakness

 

You want more?

You'll get it

Determined, ferocious

Grit down and bite the bullet

Dare to unbind

Smash and redefine

"Are You Dead Yet"

- Children of Bodom

 

Don't hear, don't deem. Drown in before you dive.

Don't care, commit to your self destruction drive

I kiss the ground with love beyond forever

Flip off the sky with bleeding fingers till I die

 

Enemy, take a one good look at me.

Eradicate what you'll always be,

Your tainted flesh, polluted soul through a mirror I behold.

Throw a punch, shards bleed on the floor

Tearing me apart but I don't care anymore.

Should I regret or ask myself

Are You Dead Yet?

 

Wake up, don't cry. Regenerate to deny the truth,

The fiction you live in blindfold your eyes.

Disclosure, self loathing. This time you've gone too far.

Or could it be, my nemesis that you are me?

 

Enemy, take a one good look at me.

Eradicate what you'll always be

Your tainted flesh, polluted soul through a mirror I behold.

Throw a punch, shards bleed on the floor

Tearing me apart but I don't care anymore.

Should I regret or ask myself ARE YOU DEAD YET?

All I Want Is You

You say you want diamonds on a ring of gold

You say you want your story to remain untold.

All the promises we make

From the cradle to the grave

When all I want is you.

 

You say you'll give me a highway with no-one on it

Treasure, just to look upon it

All the riches in the night.

 

You say you'll give me eyes in the moon of blindness

A river in a time of dryness

A harbour in the tempest.

All the promises we make, from the cradle to the grave

When all I need is you.

 

You say you want your love to work out right

To last with me through the night.

 

You say you want diamonds on a ring of gold

Your story to remain untold

Your love not to grow cold.

All the promises we break, from the cradle to the grave

When all I want is you.

Ordinary Life

Kristen Barry

Cruel Intentions Soundtrack

 

And I shed my soul, feel it kneeling down...

I'm clutching my faith, pull it tightly round...

You're moving your mouth but you don't make a sound...

But I feel the walls slowly tearing down...

Heel to toe takes you from my side...

In and out, every breath divides...

My eyes to your head,

I can't go the distance...

But when you go you take me in an instant...

In this life, I'll give it time...

Cause its always pushing up from behind...

It'll be alright, it will be fine...

Its nothing more than ordinary life...

And I show you my sins, show me all your scars...

As we settle in, its written in the stars...

Your watery eyes got me send me floating...

And my weak heart is swimming with devotion...

But in this life...

I'll give it time...

Cause its always sneaking up from behind...

It'll be alright, it will be fine...

Its nothing more than ordinary life...

So Far Away

Staind

 

This is my life

Its not what it was before

All these feelings i've shared

And these are my dreams

That i'd never lived before

Somebody shake me

'Cause i must be sleeping

 

These are my words

I've never said before

I think I'm doing okay

And this is the smile

That I've never shown before

Somebody shake me 'Cause I must be sleeping

 

Now that I’m here

It's so far away

All the struggle I thought was in vain

All the mistakes, one life contained

They all finally start to go away

Now that I’m here its so far away

And I feel like I can face the day

I CAN FORGIVE AND I’M NOT ASHAMED

TO BE THE PERSON THAT I AM TODAY :blush:
