Eminem - Sing for the Moment
These ideas are nightmares to white parents
Whose worst fear is a child with dyed hair and who likes earrings
Like whatever they say has no bearing
It's so scary in a house that allows no swearing
To see him walkin' around with his headphones blaring
Alone in his own zone, cold and he don't care
He's a problem child, what bothers him all comes out
When he talks about his ******' dad walkin' out
'Cuz he hates him so bad that he blocks him out
But if he ever saw him again, he'd probly knock him out
His thoughts are whacked, he's mad so he's talkin' back
Talkin' black, brainwashed from rock and rap
He sags his pants, dew-rags and a stockin' cap
His stepfather hit him so he socked him back
And broke his nose, this house is a broken home
There's no control, he just lets his emotions go-
Chorus
C`mon! Sing with me (Sing!), sing for the year (Sing It!)
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear (C`mon!)
Sing it with me, just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
Entertainment is changin', intertwinin' with gangstas
In the land of the killers, a sinner's mind is a sanctum
Holy or unholy, only have one homie
Only this gun, lonely, 'cuz don't anyone know me
But everybody just feels like they can relate
I guess words are a mother*****, they can be great
Or they can degrade, or even worse, they can teach hate
It's like kids hang on every single statement we make
Like they worship us, plus all the stores ship us platinum
Now how the **** did this metamorphosis happen?
From standin' on corners and porches just rappin'
To havin' a fortune, no more kissin' ***
But then these critics crucify you, journalists try to burn you
Fans turn on you, attorneys all wan' a turn at you
To get their hands on every dime you have
They want you to lose your mind every time you mad
So they can try to make you out to look like a loose cannon
Any dispute, don't hesitate to produce handguns
Thats why these prosecutors wanna convict me
Strictly just to get me off a these streets quickly
But all their kids been listen'n to me religiously
So I'm signin' CDs while police fingerprint me
They're for the judge's daughter, but his grudge is against me
If I'm such a ******' menace, this shit doesn't make sense B
It's all political, if my music is literal and I'm a criminal,
How the **** can I raise a little girl?
I couldn't, I wouldn't be fit to
You're full of **** too, Guerrera, THAT WAS A FIST THAT HIT YOU!
Chorus
C`mon! Sing with me (Sing!), sing for the year (Sing It!)
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear (Sing it!)
Sing it with me, just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
They say music can alter moods and talk to you
But can it load a gun for you and *** it too?
Well if it can, then the next time you assault a dude
Just tell the judge it was my fault, and I'll get sued
See what these kids do, is hear about us totin' pistols
And they wanna get one, 'cuz they think the ****'s cool
Not knowin' we're really just protectin' ourselves
We entertainers, of course this ****'s affectin' our sales
You ignoramous, but music is reflection of self
We just explain it, and then we get our checks in the mail
It's ****** up ain't it, how we can come from practically nothin'
To bein' able to have any ******' thing that we wanted
That's why we sing for these kids that don't have a thing
Except for a dream and a ******' rap magazine
Who post pin-up pictures on their walls all day long
Idolize their favorite rappers and know all they songs
Or for anyone who's ever been through **** in they lives
So they sit and they cry at night, wishin they'd die
Till they throw on a rap record, and they sit and they vibe
We're nothin' to you, but we the ******' **** in they eyes
That's why we seize the moment, try to freeze it and own it
Squeeze it and hold it, 'cuz we consider these minutes golden
And maybe they'll admit it when we're gone
Just let our spirits live on, through our lyrics that you hear in our songs
So we can-
Chorus
C`mon! Sing with me (Sing!), sing for the year (Sing It!)
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear (C`mon!)
Sing it with me, just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take it away
C`mon! Sing with me (Sing!), sing for the year (Sing It!)
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear (C`mon!)
Sing it with me, just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take it away

You're Beautiful by James Blunt
My life is brilliant.
My love is pure.
I saw an angel.
Of that I'm sure.
She smiled at me on the subway.
She was with another man.
But I won't lose no sleep on that,
'Cause I've got a plan.
You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw your face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.
Yeah, she caught my eye,
As we walked on by.
She could see from my face that I was,
******* high,
And I don't think that I'll see her again,
But we shared a moment that will last till the end.
You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw your face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.
You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
There must be an angel with a smile on her face,
When she thought up that I should be with you.
But it's time to face the truth,
I will never be with you.

SONG: Where Have You Been?
You called me up last night in tears and said you missed me after all these
years
But Ive been waiting here so long, Ive gotten over it since you've been gone
You called me late last night again and said you're finished with your new
boyfriend
Asked if you could come back home- so sorry that you left me all alone, well
You say you love me, love me again but if you love me- where have you been?
You say you need me more than anyone else well go to hell, where have you been?
You showed up at my door today, you said my friend why do you push me away
Life with him was just so dull but what we had was something WONDERFUL, well
You say you love me, love me again but if you love me- where have you been?
You say you need me more than anyone else well go to hell- where have you been?
No way! you wish! I don't need this! What makes you think I'd ever want you
again?
Yeah right! As if! I don't need this!What makes you think I'd ever want you
again? Agaiiiiiiiiiin?
You called me late last night again, you said you've finished with your new
boyfriend, asked if you could come back home- so sorry that you left me all alone, well
you say you love me, love me again, but if you love me, where have you been?
You say you need me more then anyone else well go to hell, where have you been?
You say you love me, love me again, but if you love me, where have you been?
Where have you been?
You say you love me, love me again , but if you love me, where have you
been?
You say you need me more than anyone else well go to hell- where have you been?

SONG: It Doesn't Matter SA2-Theme for Sonic the Hedgehog
Well, I don't show off, don't criticize,
I'm just livin' by my own feelings.
And I won't give in, won't compromise,
Coz I only have a steadfast heart of gold...
I don't know why. I can't leave though it might be tough,
But I ain't out of control, just livin' by my word.
Don't ask me why, I don't need a reason.
I got my way. My own way!!!
It doesn't matter now what happens. I will never give up the fight!!!
Long as the voice inside drives me to run and fight,
It doesn't matter who is wrong and who is right!
Well, I won't look back I don't need to,
Time won't wait and I got so much to do.
Where do I stop now, it's all a blur, it's so unclear.
Well, I don't know but I can't be wrong!
It doesn't matter now what happens. I will never give up the fight!!!
Long as the voice inside drives me to run and fight,
Place all your bets on the one you think is right!
(Guitar Solo)
Ooh.. It doesn't matter now what happens. I will never give up the fight!!!
Long as the voice inside drives me to run and fight,
It doesn't matter who is wrong and who is right!
No! No! No! No...
It doesn't matter!!!

SONG: Throw It All Away SA2-Theme for Shadow the Hedgehog
Everybody tries to be straight,
But things are still unchanged,
It's useless to resist,
Their effort will be wasted.
Head straight for your goal by any means,
There is a door that you've never opened,
There is a window with a view you have never seen,
Get there, no matter how long it takes.
Oh dark, the darkness that dozes in the dusk,
Throw it all away.
No-one can break you, nobody can tear you,
You live an endless life forever.
Oh dark, the darkness that dozes in the dusk,
Throw it all away.
You see a light wherever you go,
You have to face it again and again.
(INSTRUMENTAL)
Oh dark, the darkness that dozes in the dusk,
Throw it all away.
No-one can break you, nobody can tear you,
You live an endless life forever.
Oh dark, the darkness that dozes in the dusk,
Throw it all away.
You see a light wherever you go,
You have to face it again and again.

Round Here ~ Counting Crows
Step out the front door like a ghost into the fog
Where no one notices the contrast of white on white
And in between the moon and you the angels get a better view
Of the crumbling difference between wrong and right
I walk in the air between the rain through myself and back again
Where? I don’t know
Maria says she’s dying through the door I hear her crying
Why? I don’t know
Round here we always stand up straight
Round here something radiates
Maria came from nashville with a suitcase in her hand
She said she’d like to meet a boy who looks like elvis
She walks along the edge of where the ocean meets the land
Just like she’s walking on a wire in the circus
She parks her car outside of my house
Takes her clothes off
Says she’s close to understanding jesus
She knows she’s more than just a little misunderstood
She has trouble acting normal when she’s nervous
Round here we’re carving out our names
Round here we all look the same
Round here we talk just like lions
But we sacrifice like lambs
Round here she’s slipping through my hands
Sleeping children better run like the wind
Out of the lightning dream
Mama’s little baby better get herself in
Out of the lightning
She says it’s only in my head
She says shhh I know it’s only in my head
But the girl on car in the parking lot says
’man you should try to take a shot
Can’t you see my walls are crumbling? ’
Then she looks up at the building and says she’s thinking of jumping
She says she’s tired of life she must be tired of something
Round here she’s always on my mind
Round here hey man got lots of time
Round here we’re never sent to bed early
And nobody makes us wait
Round here we stay up very, very, very, very late
I can’t see nothing, nothing round here
Catch me if I’m falling
Love is a Battle Field ~ Pat Benatar
We are young, heartache to heartache we stand
No promises, no demands
Love is a battlefield
We are strong, no one can tell us we’re wrong
Searchin’ our hearts for so long, both of us knowing
Love is a battlefield
You’re beggin’ me to go, you’re makin’ me stay
Why do you hurt me so bad?
It would help me to know
Do I stand in your way, or am I the best thing you’ve had?
Believe me, believe me, I can’t tell you why
But I’m trapped by your love, and I’m chained to your side
We are young, heartache to heartache we stand
No promises, no demands
Love is a battlefield
We are strong, no one can tell us we’re wrong
Searchin’ our hearts for so long, both of us knowing
Love is a battlefield
We’re losing control
Will you turn me away or touch me deep inside?
And before this gets old, will it still feel the same?
There’s no way this will die
But if we get much closer, I could lose control
And if your heart surrenders, you’ll need me to hold
We are young, heartache to heartache we stand
No promises, no demands
Love is a battlefield
We are strong, no one can tell us we’re wrong
Searchin’ our hearts for so long, both of us knowing
Love is a battlefield
We are young, heartache to heartache we stand
No promises, no demands
Love is a battlefield
We are strong, no one can tell us we’re wrong
Searchin’ our hearts for so long, both of us knowing
Love is a battlefield
Miss Jenni-Maie:
For some reason, I heard this song and it reminded me of Syaoran >_<
"It Ends Tonight"
by The All-American Rejects
Your subtleties
They strangle me
I can’t explain myself at all.
And all that wants
And all that needs
All I don’t want to need at all.
The walls start breathing
My minds unweaving
Maybe it’s best you leave me alone.
A weight is lifted
On this evening
I give the final blow.
When darkness turns to light,
It ends tonight
It ends tonight.
A falling star
Least I fall alone.
I can’t explain what you can’t explain.
Your finding things that you didn’t know
I look at you with such disdain
The walls start breathing
My minds unweaving
Maybe it’s best you leave me alone.
A weight is lifted
On this evening
I give the final blow.
[Chorus]
When darkness turns to light
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.
Just a little insight will make this right
It’s too late to fight
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.
Now I’m on my own side
It’s better than being on your side
It’s my fault when your blind
It’s better that I see it through your eyes
All these thoughts locked inside
Now you’re the first to know
"My Heart Is The Worst Kind Of Weapon"
by Fall Out Boy
I spent most of last night dragging this lake
for the corpses of all my past mistakes
sell me out- the jokes on you
we are salt- you are the wound
empty another bottle
and let me tear you to pieces
this is me wishing you
into the worst situations
i'm the kind of kid
that can't let anything go
but you wouldn't know a good thing
if it came up and slit your throat
your remorse hasn't fallen on deaf ears
rather ones that just don't care
because i know
that you're in between arms somewhere
next to heartbeats
where you shouldn't dare sleep
I'll teach you a lesson
for keeping secrets from me
take your taste back
peel back your skin
and try to forget how it feels inside
you should try saying no once in a while
oh once in while [x2]
and did you hear the news?
i could dissect you
and gut you on this stage
not as elequent as i may have imagined
but it will get the job done (you're done)
every line is plotted and designed
to leave you standing
on your bedroom window's ledge
and everyone else that it hits
that it gets to
is nothing more than collateral damage
take your taste back
peel back your skin
and try to forget how it feels inside
you should try saying no once in a while
oh once in a while [x2]
And last, but especially not least, since this is my absolute favourite song:
"Arch Drive Goodbye"

Wanna keep you from sinkin
