Amber - 311

Brainstorm,
keep me away from the norm.
I've got to tell you something.
This phenomenon,
I had to put it in a song
and it goes like...
Whoa! Amber is the color of your energy.
Whoa! Shades of gold displayed naturally.

You ought to know what brings me here.
You glide through my head blind to fear
and I know why...
Whoa! Amber is the color of your energy.
Whoa! Shades of gold displayed naturally.

You live too far away,
your voice rings like a bell anyway.
Don't give up your independence, unless it feels so right.
Nothing good comes easily, sometimes you have to fight.
Whoa! Amber is the color of your energy
Whoa! Shades of gold displayed naturally.

Launched a thousands ships in my heart,
so easy.
Still it's fine from afar
and you know that...
Whoa! Brainstorm, keep me away from the norm.
Whoa! I've got to tell you something.

My Life Inside Your Heart - Rise Against

Fighting back
the impulse, turn my head and close my eyes.
Spending these nights awaking cold and paralyzed.
Wonder how we got this far and never realize
the common threat that binds our lives
and I know you hurt,
but I can help you if you can...

Take my hand
and we'll live inside the dreams we've left behind.
Take my hand
as we move from this place to a better life.
Take my hand (if you take my hand.)

Fighting back the feeling that you always could deny,
anything but everything we know is just a lie.
As I cremate this memory we watch the darkened ashes rise
and beneath the smoke I'll stand and ask you if you can...

Take my hand
and I'll promise not to ever let it go.
Take my hand
'cause this hope is greater than you're ever know. (take my hand)
(whoa) and this is all I'll ever ask of you to show.

Fight back the urges, turn my head and close my eyes
and will I wake tomorrow still alive.

I'm still dreaming/I'm still waiting/I'm still sure (I'm still sure)
you're still living in a life that isn't yours (that isn't yours)
and this is part of me.
I hope you never see
This is my life inside your heart.

Take my hand
and I'll promise not to ever let it go.
Take my hand
'cause this hope is greater than you'll ever know. (take my hand)
(whoa) and this is all I'll ever ask of you to show.

Pretty Lush - Glassjaw

I draw them on...
wreckless, etched in.
Scratched in like ressurection.
Your sins are killing you,
you hope they'll get me too.
I've got to give some to get some.

Mining in the river, standing in the rain,
down on your knees... while you heave at the drain.

You can lead a whore to water
and you can bet she'll drink and follow orders...
and I said...
"Is this what you wanted? Is this what you needed?"
Give it some more time.

Tonight I'm going to a party,
but it's already started without me.
I aced philosophy and mastered the art of spiritual phrase.
I've got to give some to get some.

The disco ball spins away another year,
I wish you a broken heart and a Happy New Year.

You can lead a whore to water
and you can bet she'll drink and follow orders...
and I said...
"Is this what you wanted? Is this what you needed?"
Give it some more time.

Blood red, white and blue - Rise Against

So come test me. Come break me.
Come on, intoxicate me.
With hands tied behind my back I fight
and wait for you to strike.
A new problem, we can't stop them.
We're outnumbered and uncautioned.
A rally cry rings out into the night.

So pride yourself on what you are
and hold them all to words they can't take back.
I've seen a place (it comes) to me in dreams,
where fires die but light still shines for us to see.

What's this you had to say?
Give me your logic, your definition.
The words you twist to justify your position
on mass starvation and blind air-strikes.
Every problem resolved with a fight.
Peace won't be found til we're underground,
as long as we live without a sound.

Would God bless a murder of the innocent?
Would God bless a war based on pride?
Would God bless a money-hungry government? NO!

Would God bless our ineffective court systems?
God bless the sweatshops we run!
God bless America! NO!
