I'm so alone and so are you we all live and die that way.



And all the world's a stage
I existed because I dreamed
And well, I dream no more
I've given up on the entire human race


Empty... is the sky before the sun wakes up
Empty... is the eyes of animals in cages
Empty... the faces of women in mourning
When everything has been taken from them
Me? Don't ask me about empty


ALL CHIODOS

This is a toughy.

I honestly have so many that I love, I am just gonna name the ones that pop into my head.

Johnny Cash's God's Gonna Cut you Down
The whole thing pretty much

Finger 11's One Thing

"If you could trade it all, if you could give it all away for one thing"



And of Course, the song that deserves every award in the world.

Show me Your Genitals

The answer I always give this question despite the fact that I no longer like the song:

Band: System of a Down
Song: Sugar
Lyric: "Every time I try to go where I really want to be, it's already where I am, 'cause I'm already there!"

"Well on the floor there's a long wooden table
On the table there's an open book
On the page there's a detailed drawing
And on the drawing is the name I took."


Peter Gabriel, Growing Up.

The chorus of Amon Amarth's Twilight of the Thundergod:

"Thor, Odin's son, protector of mankind, ride to meet your fate, your destiny awaits
Thor, Hlódyn's son, protector of mankind, ride to meet your fate, Ragnarök awaits"

I mean how much more epicly viking can lyrics get?

"Put the letter B at the beginning of the 28 grams"
From Skepta's Knock yourself out.
Only good lyric I can think of at the minute.

I'll tell you all my secrets, but I lie about my past.

Tom Waits has a million billion of these. That one is from Tango 'til They're Sore.

Shinedown, "Call Me":
Call me a sinner, call me a saint
Tell me its over I'll still love you the same.
Call me your favorite, call me the worst
Tell me its over i dont want you to hurt
its all that i can say, so I'll be on my way.

30 Seconds to Mars, "100 Suns":
I believe in nothing
100 suns until we part
...
I believe in nothing
But the truth in who we are

And finally
Incubus, "Warning":
She woke in the morning
She knew that her life had passed her by
And she called out a warning
"Don't ever let life pass you by"

Magnolia Electric company
Farewell Transmission

Mama here comes midnight with the dead moon in its jaws
Must be the big star about to fall
Long dark blues
Will o the wisp
The big star is falling
Through the static and distance
A farewell transmission
Listen

"Go find you a white crayon and color a fucking zebra." ...Eminem, I love you. That's the only thing I can immediately think of, though. Might edit tomorrow.

the distance by ckae

Reluctantly crouched at the starting line,
engines pumping and thumping in time.
the green light flashes, the flags go up.
churning and burning, they yearn for the cup.
they deftly maneuver and muscle for rank,
fuel burning fast on an empty tank.
reckless and wild, they pour through the turns.
their prowess is potent and secretly stern.
as they speed through the finish, the flags go down.
the fans get up and they get out of town.
the arena is empty except for one man,
still driving and striving as fast as he can.
the sun has gone down and the moon has come up,
and long ago somebody left with the cup.
but he's driving and striving and hugging the turns.
and thinking of someone for whom he still burns.

he's going the distance.
he's going for speed.
she's all alone
all alone in her time of need.
because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course,
he's fighting and biting and riding on his horse,
he's going the distance.

Bullet for my Valentine "Pretty on the Outside"
So just take off that disguise, everyone knows that your only pretty on the outside>
Also nearly any line from the song "Snuff" by Slipknot.

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for the daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere

Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow

And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
When people run in circles its a very, very
Mad world...
