Hand on Heart, by Queensrÿche
--------------------------------------

All eyes were staring you floated through the room
Aarmed with your razor smile cutting to the bone
My voice fell useless you flashed a quick "Hello"
Feeling the fool, could you tell it showed?
But that was "sometime ago"
A memory vague and fading slow, of somewhere I'd been

HAND ON HEART
A promise, a word, and a voice
HAND ON HEART
A rhythm of hope and choice will keep us together

I don't know if I can reach that high
It's a long way to fall
Hauntingly holding my fate with a gaze
Like a child mesmerized by the candle's flame
Oh what lies behind those eyes
I could only guess
That certain way you stood apart frome rest
Now where is "sotime ago?"
Whene everything moved in slow-mo-tion
Caught by my watering eye

HAND ON HEART
A Promise, a word and a voice
HAND ON HEART
Promising I'll never go
HAND ON HEART
For reasons you'll never know, together through thick and thin,
Lose or win, I'll be there for you

Strange how the mind changes time and time again
Thins once important now pale in comparison

HAND ON HEART
A promise, a word, and a voice
HAND ON HEART
A rhythm of hope, and a vision of choice
HAND ON HEART
Promising I'll never go
HAND ON HEART for reasons you'll never know
I promise girl, hand on heart

Falling Away From Me/ Beating Me Down- KoRn
-------------------------------------------------------
Hey I'm feeling tired
My time is gone today
You flirt with suicide
Sometimes that's ok
Hear what others say
I'm here standing hollow
Falling away from me
Falling away from me
Day is here fading
That's when I would say
I flirt with suicide
Sometimes kill the pain
I can always say
'It's gonna be better tomorrow'
Falling away from me
Falling away from me

Beating me down
Beating me beating me
Down, down
Into the ground
Screaming so sound
Beating me, beating me
Down, down
Into the ground

(falling away from me)
It's spinning round and round
(falling away from me)
It's lost and can't be found
(falling away from me)
It's spinning round and round
(falling away from me)
So down

Beating me down
Beating me, beating me
Down, down
Into the ground
Screaming so sound
Beating me, beating me
Down, down
Into the ground

Pressing me, they won't go away
So I pray, go away

It's falling away from me

Beating me down
Beating me, beating me
Down, down
Into the ground
Screaming so sound
Beating me, beating me
Down, down
Into the ground

Coming Undone- KoRn
--------------------------------------
Keep holding on when
my brain's ticking like a bomb
guess the black bots have come
again to get me
sweet bitter words
unlike nothing I have heard
sing along mocking bird
you don't affect me

thats right
deliverance of my heart
please strike
be deliverance

wait
I'm coming undone
unlaced
I'm coming undone
too late
I'm coming undone
what looks so strong so delicate
wait
I'm starting to suffocate
and soon i anticipate
I'm coming undone
what looks so strong so delicate

choke, choke again
I thought my demons were my friends
getting me in the end
they're out to get me
since I was young
I've tasted sorrow on my tounge
and this sweet chugga gun
does not protect me

thats right
trigger between my eyes
please strike
make it quick now

wait
I'm coming undone
unlaced
I'm coming undone
too late
I'm coming undone
what looks so strong so delicate
wait
I'm starting to suffocate
and soon i anticipate
I'm coming undone
what looks so strong so delicate

I'm
trying to hold it together
head is lighter than a feather
looks like I'm not getting better
not getting better

wait
I'm coming undone
unlaced
I'm coming undone
too late
I'm coming undone
what loves so strong so delicate
wait
I'm starting to suffocate
and soon i anticipate
I'm coming undone
what loves so strong so delicate

Freak on a Leash- KoRn
------------------------------Something takes a part of me.
Something lost and never seen.
Everytime I start to believe,
Something's raped and taken from me... from me.
Life's got to always be messing with me. (You wanna see the light)
Can't they chill and let me be free? (So do I)
Can't I take away all this pain. (You wanna see the light)
I try to every night, all in vain... in vain.
Sometimes I cannot take this place.
Sometimes it's my life I can't taste.
Sometimes I cannot feel my face.
You'll never see me fall from grace
Something takes a part of me.
You and I were meant to be.
A cheap ******** for me to lay
Something takes a part of me.
Feeling like a freak on a leash. (You wanna see the light)
Feeling like I have no release. (So do I)
How many times have I felt diseased? (You wanna see the light)
Nothing in my life is free... is free
Chorus
Boom na da mmm dum na ema
Da boom na da mmm dum na ema
GO!
So...fight! something on the...
Fight...some things they fight
So...something on the...
Fight...some things they fight
Fight...something of the
No...some things they fight
Fight...something of the...
Fight...some things they fight
Chorus
Part of me...
Oh...

Twisted Transistor- KoRn
---------------------------------
Hey you, hey you Devil's little sister

Meaning of Life- Disturbed
-----------------------------------
I wanna get psycho
Run you little b***h
I want your power glowing, juicy flowing, red hot, meaning of life
It's not enough to have a little taste
I want the whole damn thing now
Can you dig it?

Need to get psycho
wanna hear you say it
say, you want it, need it
Don't wanna wait until we finish the show
It's not enough, you hunger for more
You're one twisted little ********
And now you anna get psycho with me

Decide
Give in

I wanna get psycho
Scratch my itch
Give me your power glowing, juicy flowing red hot, meaning of life
It's not enough to have a little piece
I want the whole damn thing now
Can you dig it?

Need to get psycho
Wanna hear you scream
Tell me to take you, scare you, ******** you
After we finish the show
It's not enough, you listening whore?
You're one twisted little ********
And now you wanna get psycho with me

I can feel the blood, flowing through my veins
Spilling on my soul
And now the hunger's getting bigger
Come a little closer now
Pretentious whore and pull my trigger
Free the violence that is building in me
I say now end of the ride, murder suicide
Is how I've been feelin' that I can't ignore
And the need to get psycho
Is not a question to me [[dirty, is it not? wink ]]

Stricken- Disturbed
-----------------------------------------------
You walk on like a woman in suffering
Won't even bother now to tell me why
You come alone, letting all of us savor the moment
Leaving me broken another time
You come on like a bloodstained hurricane
Leave me alone, let me be this time
You carry on like a holy man pushing redemption
I don't want to mention, the reason I know

That I am stricken and can't let you go
When the heart is cold, there's no hope, and we know
That I am crippled by all that you've done
Into the abyss will I run

You don't know what your power has done to me
I want to know if I'll heal inside
I can't go on with a holocaust about to happen
Seeing you laughing another time
You'll never know how your face has haunted me
My very soul has to bleed this time
Another hole in the wall of my inner defenses
Leaving me breathless, the reason I know

That I am stricken and can't let you go
When the heart is cold, there's no hope, and we know
That I am crippled by all that you've done
Into the abyss will I run

Into the abyss will I run

You walk on like a woman in suffering
Won't even bother now to tell me why
You come alone, letting all of us savor the moment
Leaving me broken another time
You come on like a bloodstained hurricane
Leave me alone, let me be this time
You carry on like a holy man pushing redemption
I don't want to mention, the reason I know

That I am stricken and can't let you go
When the heart is cold, there's no hope, and we know
That I am crippled by all that you've done
Into the abyss will I run

Into the abyss will I run
I can't let you go
Yes I am stricken and can't let you go

Down With the Sickness- Disturbed
-------------------------------------------------
Can you feel that

(push it...)
O-WA-A-A-A
O-WA-A-A-A

uh uh
uh uh
uh uh

Drowning deep in my sea of loathing,
Broken, your servant, I kneel
(will you give in to me?)
It seems what's left of my human
side is slowly changing in me
(will you give in to me?)
Looking at my own reflection,
When suddenly it changes,
Violently it changes
Oh, no. There is no turning back now,
you've woken up the demon in me.

-CHORUS-
Get up, come on get down with the sickness!
Get up, come on get down with the sickness!
Get up, come on get down with the sickness!
Open up your hate and let it flow into me.
Get up, come on get down with the sickness!
You mother get up, come on get down with the sickness!
You ******** get up, come on get down with the sickness!
Madness is the gift that has been given to me.

I can see inside you, the sickness is rising,
don't try to deny what you feel.
(will you give in to me?)
It seems that all that was good has
died and is decaying in me.
(will you give in to me?)
It seems you're having some trouble,
in dealing with these changes, living with these changes.
Oh, no. The world is a scary place
now that you've woken up the demon in me.

CHORUS-

And when I dream,
And when I dream,
And when I dream,
AND WHEN I DREAM!

O-WA-A-A-A

-CHORUS-

madness has now come over me!


Welcome Home (Sanitarium)- Metallica
-------------------------------------------------
Welcome to where time stands still
No one leaves and no one will
Moon is full, never seems to change
Just labeled mentally deranged
Dream the same thing every night
I see our freedom in my sight
No locked doors, no windows barred
No things to make my brain seem scarred

Sleep my friend and you will see
That dream is my reality
They keep me locked up in this cage
Can't they see it's why my brain says rage

Sanitarium, leave me be
Sanitarium, just leave me alone

Build my fear of what's out there
And cannot breathe the open air
Whisper things into my brain
Assuring me that I'm insane
They think our heads are in their hands
But violent use brings violent plans
Keep him tied, it makes him well
He's getting better, can't you tell?

No more can they keep us in
Listen, damn it, we will win
They see it right, they see it well
But they think this saves us from our hell

Sanitarium, leave me be
Sanitarium, just leave me alone
Sanitarium, just leave me alone

Fear of living on
Natives getting restless now
Mutiny in the air
Got some death to do
Mirror stares back hard
Kill, it's such a friendly word
Seems the only way
For reaching out again

Sweating Bullets- Megadeth [[NOT MEGADEATH]]
-------------------------------------
Hello me...Meet the real me.
And my misfits way of life.
A dark black past is my
Most valued possession.
Hindsight is always 20-20,
But looking back it's still a bit fuzzy.
Speak of mutually assured destruction?
Nice story...Tell it to Reader's Digest!!!

Chorus
Feeling paranoid
True enemy or false friend?
Anxiety's attacking me, and
My air is getting thin.
I'm in trouble for the things
I haven't got to yet.
I'm chomping at the bit, and my
Palms are getting wet, sweating bullets.

Solo-Dave
Hello me...It's me again.
You can subdue, but never tame me.
It gives me a migraine headache
Thinking down to your level.
Yea, just keep on thinking it's my fault
And stay an inch or two outta kicking distance.
Mankind has got to know
His limitations.

Chorus
Feeling claustrophobic,
Like the walls are closing in.
Blood stains on my hands and
I don't know where I've been.
I'm in trouble for the things
I haven't got to yet.
I'm sharpening the axe and my
Palms are getting wet, sweating bullets.

Well, me...it's nice talking to myself,
A credit to dementia.
Some day you too will know my pain,
And smile its blacktooth grin.
If the war inside my head
Won't take a day off I'll be dead.
My icy fingers claw your back,
Here I come again.

Chorus
Feeling paranoid
True enemy or false friend?
Anxiety's attacking me
And my air is getting thin
Feeling claustrophobic,
Like the walls are closing in.
Blood stains on my hands and
I don't know where I've been
Once you committed me
Now you've acquitted me
Claiming validity
For your stupidity
I'm chomping at the bit
I'm sharpening the axe
Here I come again, whoa!
Sweating bullets [[I perfected the voice!!!! mrgreen ]]

Welcome to the Machine- Pink Floyd, Tribute Queensrÿche
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Welcome my son
Welcome to the machine
Where have you been?
It's alright we know where you've been
You've been in the pipeline
Filling in time
Provided with toys and scouting for boys
You brought a guitar to punish your ma
And you didn't like school
And you know you're nobody's fool
So welcome to the machine

Welcome my son
Welcome to the machine
What did you dream?
It's alright we told you what to dream
You dreamed of a big star
He played a mean gituar
He always ate in the Steak Bar
He loved to drive in his Jaguar
So welcome to the Machine

Peace Sells (non-extended)- Megadeth
---------------------------------
What do you mean, "I don't believe in God"?
I talk to him every day.
What do you mean, "I don't support your system"?
I go to court when I have to.
What do you mean, "I can't get to work on time"?
I got nothing better to do
And, what do you mean, "I don't pay my bills"?
Why do you think I'm broke? Huh?

Chorus
If there's a new way,
I'll be the first in line.
But, it better work this time.

What do you mean, "I hurt your feelings"?
I didn't know you had any feelings.
What do you mean, "I ain't kind"?
I'm just not your kind.
What do you mean, "I couldn't be president, of the United States of America"?
Tell me something, it's still "We the people", right?

Chorus (repeat)

If there's a new way I'll be the first in line, But, it better work this time.
Can you put a price on peace?
Peace,
Peace sells...,
Peace,
Peace sells...,
Peace sells...,but who's buying?
Peace sells...,but who's buying?
Peace sells...,but who's buying?
Peace sells...,but who's buying?
No, peace sells...

Symphony of Destruction- Megadeath [[lol SoD, is it? does it wanna hug?]]
-----------------------------------------------
You take a mortal man,
And put him in control
Watch him become a god,
Watch peoples heads a'roll
A'roll...

Chorus
Just like the Pied Piper
Led rats through the streets
We dance like marionettes,
Swaying to the Symphony...
Of Destruction

Acting like a robot,
Its metal brain corrodes.
You try to take its pulse,
Before the head explodes.
Explodes...

Chorus
Solo-Marty

The earth starts to rumble
World powers fall
A'warring for the heavens,
A peaceful man stands tall
Tall...

Chorus

Holy Wars... The Punishment Due- Megadeth [[i'm a genetic conflict, born in a family of killers and a family of protectors.]]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Brother will kill brother
Spilling blood across the land
Killing for religion
Something I don't understand

Fools like me,who cross the sea
And come to foreign lands
Ask the sheep, for their beliefs
Do you kill on God's command?

A country that's divided
Surely will not stand
My past erased, no more disgrace
No foolish naive stand

The end is near, it's crystal clear
Part of the master plan
Don't look now to Israel
It might be your homelands

Holy wars

Upon my podium, as the
Know it all scholar
Down in my seat of judgement
Gavel's bang,uphold the law
Up on my soapbox, a leader
Out to change the world
Down in my pulpit as the holler
Than-thou-could-be-messenger of God

Wage the war on organized crime
Sneak attacks, repel down the rocks
Behind the lines
Some people risk to employ me
Some people live to destroy me
Either way they die

They killed my wife, and my baby
With hopes to enslave me
First mistake...last mistake!
Paid by the alliance,to slay all the giants
Next mistake...no more mistakes!
Because I don't say it, don't mean I ain't
Thinkin' it
Next thing you know, they'll take my thoughts away
I know what I said, now I must scream of the overdose
And the lack of mercy killings

One- Metallica [[this and many like this ONLY count for this fricken county =,.,= ]]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I can't remember anything
can't tell if this is true or dream
deep down inside I feel to scream
this terrible silence stops me

now that the war is through with me
I'm waking up, I cannot see
that there's not much left of me
nothing is real but pain now

hold my breath as I wish for death
oh please God, wake me

back in the womb it's much too real
in pumps life that I must feel
but can't look forward to reveal
look to the time when I'll live

fed through the tube that sticks in me
just like a wartime novelty
tied to machines that make me be
cut this life off from me

hold my breath as I wish for death
oh please God, wake me

now the world is gone I'm just one
oh God, help me hold my breath as I wish for death

darkness imprisoning me
all that I see
absolute horror
I cannot live
I cannot die
trapped in myself
body my holding cell

landmine has taken my sight
taken my speech
taken my hearing
taken my arms
taken my legs
taken my soul
left me with life in hell

Knights of Cydonia- Muse [[who CAN'T agree with this?? TELL ME!!]]
---------------------------------------------
Ahh Ahh Ahh
Ahh Ahh Ahh
Ahh Ahh Ahh
Ahh Ahh Ahh

(repeat, soprano)

Come ride with me,
Through the veins of history,
I'll show you how god,
Falls asleep on the job.

And how can we win,
When fools can be kings,
Don't waste your time,
Or time will waste you,

Ahh Ahh Ahh
Ahh Ahh Ahh
Ahh Ahh Ahh
Ahh Ahh Ahh

(repeat, soprano)

No one's gonna take me alive,
Time has come to make things right,
You and I must fight for our rights,
You and I must fight to survive,

No one's gonna take me alive,
Time has come to make things right,
You and I must fight for our rights,
You and I must fight to survive

(solo)

No one's going to take me alive,
Time has come to make things right,
You and I must fight for our rights,
You and I must fight to survive.

(solo to outro)


The Hands- Queensrÿche
-----------------------------------------
When I'm lost...I find a way.
I hear voices. Feel them surround me,
pull me from the edge.
I close my eyes and....

And my luck keeps holding strong,
even when that boot comes down.
Waiting for the revolution but there’s no one around except the
...hands out of nowhere, saving me again
There’s always something there watching out for me,
if I’m suffocating, it gives me air.

Finally now I remember,
but where I’m going now, I’m not sure.
Only one thing matters much to me anymore.


I’m looking for you.
Can you imagine? You can’t think.
You won't find a way this time to frighten me.
You're running scared now, always looking
over your shoulder for a place
where you don’t see my face.

When my luck keeps holding so strong,
even with the state I’m in.
I’m like a revolution of one, even when I stumble I win.


Because there's hands out of nowhere, saving me again.
There’s always something there, watching out for me.
When I'm suffocating, it gives me air.

I’m like a cat with only a few lives left,
running from the shadows.
Watching my back waiting for the attack that I know is
coming...I feel it's near.

My Empty Room- Queensrÿche [[ sad even tho she never died, it still feels like my fault]]
-------------------------------------------
Empty room today
And here I sit
Chalk outline upon the wall
I remember tracing it
A thousand times, the night she died, why?
There's no sleep today, I can't pretend
When all my dreaams are crimes
I can't stand facing them
Now who will come
To wash away my sins
Clean my room, fix my meals
Be my friend?

Electric Requiem- Queensrÿche [[goes along with above.]]
----------------------------------------------
([Nikki:] "Anybody home? Mary?" wink [[Nikki- main guy in the story, kills his]]
Even in death [[lover without realizing it till now]]
You still look sad
Don't leave me
Don't leave me...here
I want what you feel, believe me
Turn the current on

Hostage- Queensrÿche [[ask and i'll tell you bout why later]]
-----------------------------------------
Culture hostage.
I’m writhing in the cold grasp of justice,
as she turns away.
Blind is she supposed to be but,
someone took a razor to her mask.
Rusted now the scales you hold,
the balance tipped by the weight of gold.
When will it end?
When will it ever end?
The judgment man holds my fate,
as I beg forgiveness with the
plastic smile of a candidate.
They take for granted that I’m out of my mind and they’re wasting their time to care.
So all my reasons are damned before they’re heard.
I’m held hostage by their words.
What will lead us to tolerance
if we don’t question our prejudice?
Courage is such a lonely word,
patience, in time these truths will be known.
Please, don’t keep looking away.
You see fortunes are on line, reputations at risk, and there’s fear in the hearts of all of you that believe that you’re right,
and that’s your right.
But are you . . . right?
The judgment man holds my fate,
as I gaze around the room,
their eyes are like knives, could decapitate.
They take for granted that I’m out of my mind and I’m wasting their time, don’t show, don’t show me my fate.
Reasons are damned, can’t understand.
If I fall to pieces they’ll know . . .
he’s out of his mind and he’s wasting our time, we know. As I sense my fate . . .
His reasons be damned, can’t understand him.
. . . and now all my reasons are damned before they’re heard. I’m held hostage by their words.
I’m a hostage

If I Could Change It All- Queensrÿche [[goes with 2&3 up, hard to keep track of Mary and Nikki]]
--------------------------------------------------------
She said, “Baby, where you been?
Why’d you have to leave me?
I’m on the other side . . . just looking in.”
I’ve been so high; I climbed to the mountaintop,
looked at myself and . . .
I’d tell you anything you want to hear.
And I’d desert you when I’m through.
I’d say anything because true love
don’t mean a thing to a man, who’s not a man, but a fool.
Look at me!
You’re a model of efficiency.
I’m always doing what he tells me.
How can you change it now?
I’m always looking for it down deep inside,
I thought that this would change my life.
Have you found out?
I remember more . . .
Can you change?
I can change.
For years he must have cried a river of tears.
In his dreams he saw himself . . . a dying man
drawing figures, arrows in the sand.
Mmm, I don’t think he understands.
Never thought that it would last forever.
One glance back . . . there’s nothing much to say.
He watched as it all began spinning further and further from the truth.
And nothing really matters, when your heart doesn’t lead the way

Silent Lucidity- Queensrÿche [[ crying my fav. song! echoing it right now]]
--------------------------------------------------
Hush now don't you cry
Wipe away the tear drops from your eye
You're lying safe in bed
It was all a bad dream
Spinning thru your head
Your mind tricked you to feel the pain
Of someone close to you leaving the game
Of life

So here it is, another chance
Wide awake, you face the day
Your dream is over...
Or has it just begun?

There's a place I like to hide
A door way that I run thru in the night
Relax child, you were there
But only didn't realize, and you were scared
It's a place where you will learn
To face your fears, retrace the years
And ride the whims of your mind
Commanding in another world
Suddenly, you hear and see
This magic new dimension

I -- will be watching over you
I -- am gonna help you see it through
I -- will protect you in the night
I -- am smiling next to you .. in Silent Lucidity

[Visualize your dreams
write them into permanent form
if you consist in your efforts
you will achieve
dream control

control

how is that, better?

dream control
dream control
help me]

If you open your mind for me
You won't rely on open eyes to see
The walls you built within
Come tumbling down, and a new world will begin
Living twice at once you learn
You're some from pain in the dream domain
A soul set free to fly
A round trip journey in your head
Master of illusion, can you realize
Your dream's alive, you can be the guide but...

I -- will be watching over you
I -- am gonna help you see it through
I -- will protect you in the night
