Marina & the Diamonds - Oh No!
Don't do love, don't do friends
I'm only after success
Don't need a relationship
I'll never soften my grip
...
I know exactly what I want and who I want to be
I know exactly why I walk and talk like a machine
I'm now becoming my own self-fulfilled prophecy
Oh, oh no, oh no, oh no, oh
Lana Del Rey - Gods & Monsters
In the land of Gods and Monsters
I was an Angel
Living in the garden of evil
Screwed up, scared, doing anything that I needed
Shining like a fiery beacon
You got that medicine I need
Fame, Liquor, Love give it to me slowly
Put your hands on my waist, do it softly
Me and God, we don't get along so now I sing
…
In the land of Gods and Monsters
I was an Angel
Looking to get fucked hard
Like a groupie incognito posing as a real singer
Life imitates art
You got that medicine I need
Dope, shoot it up, straight to the heart please
I don't really wanna know what's good for me
God's dead, I said 'baby that's alright with me’
Natalia Kills - Nothing Lasts Forever
You got a face like a doll
will it last forever, no
I just want your beautiful
you don't need to think about it
tell me things I wanna hear
take the truth, I'll take the dare
Feed me lies and eat my fear
cut the chase and get right to it
We might never meet again
(This might be the last time)
Kiss me like the end will end
(Press your lips right up my spine)
pull that shirt, I'll pull the shade
(dirty secrets, dirty lies)
you can be my last regret
my last regret
You're beautiful
don't know your name
it's all the same
Nothing Lasts Forever babe
Metric - Breathing Underwater
I'm the blade
You're the knife
I'm the weight
You're the kite
They were right when they said
We were breathing underwater
Out of place all the time
In a world that wasn't mine to take
I'll wait
Is this my life?
Ahhh
Am I breathing underwater?
Is this my life?
Ahhh
Am I breathing underwater?
…
Nights are days
We'll beat a path through the mirrored maze
I can see the end
But it hasn't happened yet
I can see the end
But it hasn't happened yet
Adam Lambert - Underneath
Strip away the flesh and bone
Look beyond the lies you've known
Everybody wants to talk about a freak
No one wants to dig that deep
Let me take you underneath
Baby, better watch your step
Never mind what's on the left
You're gonna see things you might not wanna see
It's still not that easy for me underneath
A red river of screams
Underneath
Tears in my eyes
Underneath
Stars in my black and blue sky
And underneath
Under my skin
Underneath, the depths of my sin
Look at me
Now do you see?
Welcome to my world of truth
I don't wanna hide any part of me from you
I'm standing here with no apologies
Such a beautiful release
You inside of me
Marina & the Diamonds - Fear and Loathing
I've lived a lot of different lives
Been different people many times
I live my life in bitterness
And fill my heart with emptiness
And now I see, I see it for the first time,
There is no crime in being kind
Not everyone is out to screw you over.
Maybe, oh just maybe they just wanna get to know ya.
Now the time is here,
Baby you don't have to live your life in fear
And the sky is clear, is clear of fear
Don't wanna live in fear and loathing
I wanna feel like I am floating
Instead of constantly exploding
In fear and loathing
Got different people inside my head
I wonder which one that they like best
I'm done with tryin' to have it all
And endin' up with not much at all.
Natalia Kills - Love Is A Suicide
You like the smell of blood
When it's pumpin' like a factory
Ooh, you like your words to cut
You like to choose the best artillery
I wonder who you're thinkin' of
Who am I
Am I the epitome
Of everything you hate
And you desire
You love me like an enemy
You can run, you can hide
But sooner or later
It's gonna cut like a knife
Sooner or later
Nowhere to go
I'm already inside
You know
No one'll love ya like I love ya
'Cause love is a suicide
Love is a suicide
'Cause love is a suicide
Love is a suicide
It feels so surgical
How you dissect every mistake I make
You're like an animal
You bite me hard with every breath I take?
And when I'm on the edge?
You won't let me fall
Rope around my neck
But you won't take it off
And I'm hearin' voices sayin'
It's time that you know it
Go ahead if you mean it
Go 'head if you mean it
Metric - Too Little Too Late
You can burn your paper fingers in the ashtray
Place your swollen lips on mine
You can shave your heavy head in my carpeted hallway
Sure for the first time you're wearing the right clothes
…
Oh let's move out
Meet me at the motel
Tie my right hand to the bible
Too little too late but we can't say no
It's too much to feel
Tie my right hand to the bible
Daughter - Still
Two feet standing on a principle
Two hands longing for each others warmth
Cold smoke seeping out of colder throats
Darkness falling, leaves nowhere to go
It's spiraling down
Biting words like a wolf howling
Hate is spitting out each others mouths
But we're still sleeping like we're lovers
Still with feet touching
Still with eyes meeting
Still our hands match
Still with hearts beating
Florence + The Machine - Shake It Out
And every demon wants his pound of flesh
But I like to keep some things to myself
I like to keep my issues drawn
It's always darkest before the dawn
And I've been a fool and I've been blind
I can never leave the past behind
I can see no way, I can see no way
I'm always dragging that horse around
…
And I am done with my graceless heart
So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart
'Cause I like to keep my issues drawn
It's always darkest before the dawn
…
And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my road
And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope
It's a shot in the dark aimed right at my throat
'Cause looking for heaven, found the devil in me
Looking for heaven, found the devil in me
Well what the hell I'm gonna let it happen to me, yeah
Panic! at the Disco - This is Gospel
Don’t try to sleep through the end of the world
And bury me alive
'Cause I won’t give up without a fight
If you love me let me go
If you love me let me go
‘Cause these words are knives and often leave scars
The fear of falling apart
And truth be told, I never was yours
The fear, the fear of falling apart
Hurt - Falls Apart
I messed up again when I tried
You spend all your money and I
And, oh! By the way,
With all you did nothing has changed
So lie like a waste by the side
As everything just falls apart
'Cause everything just fell apart for me
I cracked my head and broke my
I cracked my head and broke my
I cracked my head and broke my heart
And I don't feel the need to go on
I was happier singing along the way
I had things, I need to say
But now it's like a swallowed tape
That holds up my face from inside
As everything just falls apart
'Cause everything just fell apart for me
So woe is me
Oh woe is me, yeah
Natalia Kills - Trouble
Hey lover come and be my alibi,
I'm gonna burn down the house tonight…
Ride with me I know your friends say that I'm trouble.
Hold me down in the siren lights,
Love me even when my lies ain't white,
Light the fuse on the dynamite…
I'm trouble
And oh oh oh
It's the only way I know oh oh
My daddy taught me so oh oh
When he said to me
"Don't look back
When you walk away…"
I'm the best mistake you'll ever make
…
Learn your lines, get your story straight,
Broken bottles gonna seal your fate…
Happiness is just a glass away,
I'm trouble
Breath me in, like the summer nights,
It's only a mistake if we don't survive…
Kids grown up, but we're not alright,
We're trouble
30 Seconds to Mars - Closer to the Edge
I don't remember the moment I tried to forget
I lost myself, is it better not said
Now I'm closer to the edge
It was a thousand to one and a million to two
Time to go down in flames and I'm taking you
Closer to the edge
No I'm not saying I'm sorry
One day maybe we'll meet again
No I'm not saying I'm sorry
One day maybe we'll meet again
No no no no
(Can you, can you, can you)
Can you imagine a time when the truth ran free?
The birth of a song, the death of a dream
Closer to the edge
This never ending story
Paid for with pride and fate
We all fall short of glory
Lost innocence
