    "Waste My Time" by Saint Asonia

    Hold onto me
    Like we're the only ones that see
    The sky above us falling down
    And breathe in my ear
    Like we're the only ones that hear
    The mountains crashing down

    I had wasted most of my life
    Playing games that I knew I'd lose
    Let me sing to you, just sit here don't move
    I just wanna waste some time with you

    So take my hand
    I don't understand
    How they kept us apart for so long
    And smile so I can see
    That it's really you in front of me
    'Cause that's still just so hard to believe

    I have wasted most of my life
    Playing games that I knew I'd lose
    Let me sing to you
    Just sit here don't move
    I just wanna waste some time with you

    Forcing back the tears
    Over all the years
    Boarding up the door
    And throwing my hope to the floor
    I could not forget
    Now it all makes sense
    That you're here with me
    And I never never want to leave

    I would've wasted most of my life
    Never even knowing you
    Now you sing to me and I still don't believe
    That you wanna waste some time with me

    Let me sing to you, just sit here don't move
    I just wanna waste some time with you
    And now you sing to me and I still don't believe
    That you wanna waste your time with me

    Make you feel my love - as covered by Adele

    When the rain is blowing in your face
    And the whole world is on your case
    I could offer you a warm embrace,
    To make you feel my love.

    When the evening shadows and the stars appear,
    And there is no one there to dry your tears,
    I could hold you for a million years
    To make you feel my love.

    I know you haven't made your mind up yet
    But I would never do you wrong.
    I've known it from the moment that we met
    No doubt in my mind where you belong.

    I'd go hungry, I'd go black and blue.
    I'd go crawling down the avenue.
    No there's nothing that I wouldn't do
    To make you feel my love.

    The storms are raging on the rolling sea,
    And on the highway of regret.
    The winds of change are blowing wild and free,
    You ain't seen nothing like me yet.

    [Outro]
    I could make you happy, make your dreams come true.
    Nothing that I wouldn't do
    Go to the ends of the earth for you,
    To make you feel my love
    To make you feel my love.

    I'm a-thinkin' and a-wond'rin' wallkin' way down the road
    I once loved a woman, a child I am told
    I give her my heart but she wanted my soul
    But don't think twice, it's all right...

    You gave me nothing
    Now it's all I've got

    (Actually, all of the lyrics to that song are brutally beautiful. I just don't want to type them all out or google them)

    Fully Alive

    Flyleaf

    Telling Layla's story spoken
    'Bout how all her bones are broken
    Hammers fall on all the pieces
    Two months in the cover creases

    Here she stands today
    In her brilliant shining way

    Fully alive
    More than most, ready to smile, and love life
    Fully alive and she knows
    How to believe in futures

    All my complaints shrink to nothing
    I'm ashamed of all my somethings
    She's glad for one day of comfort
    Only because she has suffered

    Here she stands today
    In her brilliant shining way

    Fully alive
    More than most, ready to smile, and love life
    Fully alive and she knows
    How to believe in futures

    Fully alive
    More than most, ready to smile, and love life
    Fully alive and she knows
    How to believe in futures

    Fully alive
    More than most, ready to smile, and love life
    Fully alive and she knows
    How to believe in futures

    One jumped and screamed you lose
    And just left the odd man holding

    Something kinda sad about
    The way that things have come to be
    Desensitized to everything
    What became of subtlety?

    How can this mean anything to me
    If I really don't feel anything at all?

    “You say you’re lookin' for someone
    Who’ll pick you up each time you fall
    To gather flowers constantly
    And to come each time you call
    A lover for your life and nothing more

    But it ain't me, babe
    No, no, no, it ain't me, babe
    It ain't me you’re looking for, babe...”

    Why did this fade? This is an awesome idea!

    "So now I am older than my mother and father
    When they had their daughter
    Now what does that say about me
    Oh how could I dream of such a selfless and true love
    Could I wash my hands of
    Just looking out for me
    Oh man what I used to be
    Oh man oh my oh me
    Oh man what I used to be
    Oh man oh my oh me
    In dearth or in excess
    Both the slave and the empress
    Will return to the dirt I guess, naked as when they came
    I wonder if I'll see any faces above me
    Or just cracks in the ceiling
    Nobody else to blame
    Oh man what I used to be
    Oh man oh my oh me
    Oh man that I used to be
    Oh man oh my oh me
    Gold teeth and gold jewelry
    Every piece of your dowry
    Throw them into the tomb with me
    Bury them with my name
    Unless I have someday
    Ran my wandering mind away
    Oh man what I used to be
    Montezuma to Tripoli
    Oh man oh my oh me"

    In The Midnight Hour .....

    Eyes Without a Face
    Billy Idol <3
    https://youtu.be/9OFpfTd0EIs

    I'm all out of hope
    One more bad dream could bring a fall?
    When I'm far from home
    Don't call me on the phone
    To tell me you're alone
    It's easy to deceive
    It's easy to tease
    But hard to get release

    (Les yeux sans visage) eyes without a face (les yeux sans visage)
    Eyes without a face (les yeux sans visage)
    Eyes without a face, got no human grace your eyes without a face

    I spend so much time
    Believing all the lies
    To keep the dream alive
    Now it makes me sad
    It makes me mad at truth
    For loving what was you

    (Les yeux sans visage) eyes without a face (les yeux sans visage)
    Eyes without a face (les yeux sans visage)
    Eyes without a face, got no human grace your eyes without a face

    When you hear the music you make a dip
    Into someone else's pocket then make a slip
    Steal a car and go to las vegas oh, the gigolo pool
    Hanging out by the state line, turning holy water into wine
    Drinkin' it down
    I'm on a bus on a psychedelic trip
    Reading murder books tryin' to stay hip
    I'm thinkin' of you you're out there so
    Say your prayers
    Say your prayers
    Say your prayers

    Now I close my eyes
    And I wonder why
    I don't despise
    Now all I can do
    Love what was once
    So alive and new
    But it's gone from your eyes
    I'd better realize

    (Les yeux sans visage) eyes without a face (les yeux sans visage)
    Eyes without a face (les yeux sans visage)
    Eyes without a face, got no human grace your eyes without a face

    Such a human waste your eyes without a face
    And now it's getting worse

    And oh the fights we had
    When my brother and I got him mad
    He'd get all boiled up and he'd start to shout
    And I knew what was coming so I tuned him out
    And now the old man's gone, and I'd give all I own
    To hear what he said when I wasn't listening
    To my old man

    While preachers preach of evil fates
    Teachers teach that knowledge waits
    Can lead to hundred-dollar plates
    Goodness hides behind its gates
    But even the president of the United States
    Sometimes must have to stand naked

    It's Alright Ma - Bob Dylan

    So here I am
    I don't wanna be by myself
    And I think you’re *kitten* someone else
    now im gonna have to find a way
    To take the knife out of my back
    And how could you leave me
    Stranded in a closet full of bones


    Puddle of mudd away from me!! Only to find out he was banging someone else :(

    Growing stronger each day 'til it finally reminds her
    To fight just a little, to bring back the fire in her eyes
    That's been gone, but used to be mine

    Well, do you ever get the feeling that the story's
    too damn real and in the present tense?
    Or that everybody's on the stage, and it seems like
    you're the only person sitting in the audience?

    My favorite band was playin'
    An Otis Redding song
    When they sang the chorus
    Everybody sang along
    Dan and Margarita
    Were swayin' side by side
    I heard they were divorcin'
    But I guess they let it slide
    And I wished I had some money
    With which to buy a round
    I wished I'd cashed my paycheck
    Before I came to town
    But I reached into my pocket
    Found three twenties and a ten
    It feels so good feelin' good again

    Feelin' Good Again - REK
