The Weeknd - Take My Breath

 
I saw the fire in your eyes
I saw the fire when I look into your eyes
You tell me things you wanna try (Uh)
I know temptation is the devil in disguise
You risk it all to feel alive, oh yeah
You're offering yourself to me like sacrifice
You said you do this all the time
Tell me you love me if I bring you to the light

It's like a dream what she feels with me
She loves to be on the edge
Her fantasy is okay with me
Then suddenly, baby says

Take my breath away
And make it last forever, babe
Do it now or never, babe (Ah)
Take my breath away
Nobody does it better, babe
Bring me close to-

Want me to hold onto you tight
You pull me closer, feel the heat between your thighs (Uh, say)
You're way too young to end your life (Huh)
Girl, I don't wanna be the one who pays the price

Ooh, it's like a dream what she feels with me
She loves to be on the edge
Her fantasy is okay with me
Then suddenly, baby says

Take my breath away
And make it last forever, babe
Do it now or never, babe (Ah)
Take my breath away
Nobody does it better, babe
Bring me close to heaven, babe (Uh)
Take my breath

Oh, oh-ooh
And they'll see me
Oh-ooh, ooh (Yeah, say)
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh

Take my breath away (Take my breath away)
And make it last forever, babe
Do it now or never, babe (Ah)
Take my breath away (Take my breath away)
Nobody does it better, babe
Bring me close to heaven, babe (Take my breath)
Take my breath (Take my breath a-, breath away)
(Nobody)
Take my breath (Take my breath a-, breath away)
Nobody does it better, babe
Bring me close to heaven, babe (Uh)
Take my breath

Van Halen - When It's Love

 
Everybody's lookin' for somethin'
Somethin' to fill in the holes
We think a lot but don't talk much about it
'Til things get out of control
How do I know when it's love
I can't tell you but it lasts forever
How does it feel when it's love
It's just something you feel together
When it's love
You look at every face in a crowd
Some shine and some keep you guessin'
Waiting for someone to come into focus
Teach you your final love lesson
How do I know when it's love
I can't tell you but it lasts forever
How does it feel when it's love
It's just something you feel together
Oh oh oh oh
Oh when it's love
Oh oh oh oh
You can feel it yeah
Oh oh oh oh
Nothing's missing
Yeah
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Nothing's missing
How do I know when it's love,
I can't tell you but it lasts forever
How does it feel when it's love
I can't tell you but it lasts forever
When it's love
When it's love
It'll last forever
When it's love
You and I
We're gonna feel this thing together
When it's love
When it's love
You can feel it
We'll make it last forever
When it's love 

 

Incubus - Love Hurts

 
Tonight we drink to youth
And holding fast to truth
Don't wanna lose what I had as a boy
My heart still has a beat
But love is now a feat
As common as a cold day in LA

Sometimes when I'm alone, I wonder
Is there a spell that I am under
Keeping me from seeing the real thing?

Love hurts
But sometimes it's a good hurt
And it feels like I'm alive
Love sings
When it transcends the bad things
Have a heart and try me
'Cause without love, I won't survive

I'm fettered and abused
Stand naked and accused
Should I surface this one-man submarine?
I only want the truth
So tonight, we drink to youth
I'll never lose what I had as a boy

Sometimes when I'm alone, I wonder
Is there a spell that I am under
Keeping me from seeing the real thing?

Love hurts
But sometimes it's a good hurt
And it feels like I'm alive
Love sings
When it transcends the bad things
Have a heart and try me
'Cause without love, I won't survive

Without love, I won't survive

Love hurts
But sometimes it's a good hurt
And it feels like I'm alive
Love sings
When it transcends the bad things
Have a heart and try me
'Cause without love, I won't survive

Love hurts, oh oh, love hurts
Without love, I won't survive
Love hurts, oh, love hurts
Without love, I won't survive 

 

Rammstein - Mein Herz Brennt

 
Nun, liebe Kinder, gebt fein Acht
Ich bin die Stimme aus dem Kissen
Ich hab' euch etwas mitgebracht
Hab' es aus meiner Brust gerissen
Mit diesem Herz hab' ich die Macht
Die Augenlider zu erpressen
Ich singe, bis der Tag erwacht
Ein heller Schein am Firmament

Mein Herz brennt!

Sie kommen zu euch in der Nacht
Dämonen, Geister, schwarze Feen
Sie kriechen aus dem Kellerschacht
Und werden unter euer Bettzeug sehen

Nun, liebe Kinder, gebt fein Acht
Ich bin die Stimme aus dem Kissen
Ich hab' euch etwas mitgebracht
Ein heller Schein am Firmament

Mein Herz brennt!
Mein Herz brennt!

Sie kommen zu euch in der Nacht
Und stehlen eure kleinen, heißen Tränen
Sie warten, bis der Mond erwacht
Und drücken sie in meine kalten Venen

Nun, liebe Kinder, gebt fein Acht
Ich bin die Stimme aus dem Kissen
Ich singe, bis der Tag erwacht
Ein heller Schein am Firmament

Mein Herz brennt!
Mein Herz brennt!
Mein Herz brennt!
Mein Herz brennt!

Mit diesem Herz hab' ich die Macht
Die Augenlider zu erpressen
Ich singe, bis der Tag erwacht
Ein heller Schein am Firmament

Mein Herz brennt!
Mein Herz brennt!
Mein Herz brennt! (Mein Herz)
Mein Herz brennt! 

 

Metallica - Fade To Black

 
Life, it seems, will fade away
Drifting further every day
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters, no one else

I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
Need the end to set me free

Things not what they used to be
Missing one inside of me
Deathly lost, this can't be real
Cannot stand this hell I feel

Emptiness is filling me
To the point of agony
Growing darkness taking dawn
I was me, but now he's gone

No one but me can save myself, but it's too late
Now I can't think, think why I should even try

Yesterday seems as though it never existed
Death greets me warm, now I will just say goodbye
Goodbye

Lacuna Coil - I Forgive (But I Won't Forget Your Name)

 
You know I've been hurt before
But you didn't really care
Had enough of empty words
I'm not here to stay

I cannot deal with you anymore
Once again you've crossed the line
And you're underestimating me again

I forgive the ones who hurt me
But I'll not forget your name
All the damage that you've done
I want to see you pay

'Cause I will forgive the ones who hurt me
But I'll not forget your name
You will pay for all that you've done

When I put my trust in you
You just threw it all away
All the pain you put me through
You're not here to stay

And you're underestimating me again
You'll get what you've been giving

Let it rain, let it rain
Let it rain into my heart
I'll wash away the stains
That you left behind

Let it rain, let it rain
Let it rain into my heart
To my heart, to my heart, to my heart

I forgive the ones who hurt me
But I'll not forget your name
All the damage that you've done
I want to see you pay

'Cause I will forgive the ones who hurt me
But I'll not forget your name
You will pay for all that you've done

I forgive the ones who hurt me
But I'll not forget your name
All the damage that you've done
I want to see you pay

'Cause I will forgive the ones who hurt me
But I'll not forget your name
You will pay for all that you've done
All that you have done (you've done)

'Cause I will forgive the ones who hurt me
But I'll not forget your name
You will pay for all that you've done 

 

Bullet For My Valentine - Tears Don't Fall

 
Let's go!

With bloodshot eyes, I watch you sleeping
The warmth I feel beside me is slowly fading
Would she hear me if I called her name?
Would she hold me if she knew my shame?

There's always something different going wrong
The path I walk's in the wrong direction
There's always someone fucking hanging on
Can anybody help me make things better?

Your tears don't fall, they crash around me
Her conscience calls, the guilty to come home
Your tears don't fall, they crash around me
Her conscience calls, the guilty to come home

The moments die, I hear no screaming
The visions left inside me are slowly fading
Would she hear me if I called her name?
Would she hold me if she knew my shame?

There's always something different going wrong
The path I walk's in the wrong direction
There's always someone fucking hanging on
Can anybody help me make things better?

Your tears don't fall, they crash around me
Her conscience calls, the guilty to come home
Your tears don't fall, they crash around me
Her conscience calls, the guilty to come home

Oh yeah

This battered room I've seen before
The broken bones they heal no more, no more
With my last breath I'm choking
Will this ever end? I'm hoping
My world is over one more time

Let's go!

Would she hear me if I called her name?
Would she hold me if she knew my shame?

There's always something different going wrong
The path I walk's in the wrong direction
There's always someone fucking hanging on
Can anybody help me make things better?

Your tears don't fall, they crash around me
Her conscience calls, the guilty to come home (tears don't fall)
Your tears don't fall, they crash around me (conscience calls)
Her conscience calls, the guilty to come

Better!

Your tears don't fall, they crash around me (conscience calls)
Her conscience calls, the guilty to come home 

 

Nickelback - Trying Not To Love You

 
You call to me, and I fall at your feet
How could anyone ask for more?
(How could anyone ask for more?)
And our time apart, like knives in my heart
How could anyone ask for more?
(How could anyone ask for more?)

But if there's a pill to help me forget
God knows I haven't found it yet
But I'm dying to, God, I'm trying to

'Cause trying not to love you, only goes so far
And trying not to need you, is tearing me apart
Can't see the silver lining, from down here on the floor
And I just keep on trying, but I don't know what for
'Cause trying not to love you
Only makes me love you more
Only makes me love you more

And this kind of pain, only time takes away
That's why it's harder to let you go (That's why it's harder to let you go)
And nothing I can do, without thinking of you
That's why it's harder to let you go (That's why it's harder to let you go)

But if there's a pill to help me forget
God knows I haven't found it yet
But I'm dying to, God, I'm trying to

'Cause trying not to love you, only goes so far
Trying not to need you, is tearing me apart
Can't see the silver lining, from down here on the floor
And I just keep on trying, but I don't know what for
'Cause trying not to love you
Only makes me love you more

So I sit here divided, just talking to myself
Was it something that I did?
Was there somebody else?
When a voice from behind me, that was fighting back tears
Sat right down beside me, whispered right in my ear
Said, I've been dying to tell you

That trying not to love you, only went so far
Trying not to need you, was tearing me apart
Now I see the silver lining, from what we're fighting for
We just keep on trying, we could be much more
'Cause trying not to love you
Oh, yeah, trying not to love you
Only makes me love you more
Only makes me love you more 

 

Theory Of A Deadman - Bad Girlfriend

 
My Girlfriend's a dick magnet My Girlfriend's gotta have it
She's hot, can't stop, up on stage, doing shots, Tip the man he'll
Ring the bell, get her drunk she'll scream like hell.
Dirty girl, gettin' down, dance with guys from outta town.
Grab her ass, actin' tough. Mess with her, she'll fuck you up.
No one really knows if she's drunk or if she's stoned, but she's
Comin' back to my place tonight!

She likes to shake her ass she grinds it to the beat
She likes to pull my hair when I make her grind her teeth
I like to strip her down she's naughty to the end
You know what she is, no doubt about it
She's a bad, bad girlfriend!

Red thong, Party's on, Love this song, sing along.
Come together, leave alone, see you later back at home

But she's coming back to my place tonight. I say
No one really knows just how far she's gonna go,
But I'm gonna find out later tonight

She likes to shake her ass she grinds it to the beat
She likes to pull my hair when I make her grind her teeth
I like to strip her down she's naughty to the end
You know what she is, no doubt about it

Doesn't take her long to make things right.
But does it make her wrong to
Have the time of her life. the time of her life
My girlfriend's a dick magnet My girlfriend's gotta have it

She's a gold digger now you figure out it's over, pull the trigger.
Futures finished, there it went, savings gone,
The money spent

I look around and all I see is, no good, bad and ugly,
Man she's hot and fixed to be, the future
Ex-Miss Connolly!

She likes to shake her ass she grinds it to the beat
She likes to pull my hair when I make her grind her teeth
I like to strip her down she's naughty to the end
You know what she is, no doubt about it
She's a bad, bad girlfriend!

She's a bad, bad girlfriend.
She's a bad, bad girlfriend. 

 

Seether - Careless Whisper (Wham! cover)

 
I feel so unsure
As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
As the music dies
Something in your eyes
Calls to mind a silver screen
And all of its sad goodbyes

I'm never gonna dance again
These guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I'd been given
So I'm never gonna dance again...
The way I danced with you

Time can never mend
The careless whispers of a good friend
To the heart and mind
Ignorance is kind
There's no comfort in the truth
Pain is all you'll find

I'm never gonna dance again
These guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I'd been given
So I'm never gonna dance again...
The way I danced with you

Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it's better this way
We'd hurt each other with the things we want to say
We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
Now who's gonna dance with me

Please stay
I'm never gonna dance again
These guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I'd been given
So I'm never gonna dance again...
The way I danced with you

Lacuna Coil - Enjoy The Silence (Depeche Mode cover)

 
Words like violence
Break the silence
Come crashing in
Into my little world
Painful to me
Pierce right through me
Can't you understand?
Oh, my little girl

All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm

Vows are spoken
To be broken
Feelings are intense
Words are trivial
Pleasures remain
So does the pain
Words are meaningless
And forgettable

All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm

All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm

All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm

Enjoy the silence
Enjoy the silence
Enjoy the silence
Enjoy the silence

 

NF - If You Want Love

 
I just need some time, I'm tryna think straight
I just need a moment in my own space
Ask me how I'm doin', I'll say, "okay"
Yeah, but ain't that what we all say?
Sometimes I think back to the old days
In the pointless conversations with the old me
Yeah, back when my momma used to hold me
I wish somebody woulda told me

If you want love, you gon' have to go through the pain
If you want love, you gon' have to learn how to change
If you want trust, you gon' have to give some away
If you want love, if you want love

Yeah, as a kid I used to think life
Is moving so slow, I watch it go by
Look out the window on my bus ride
I thought the world was so small, through my closed eyes
I've always tried to control things
In the end that's what controls me
Maybe that's why I'm controllin'
I wish somebody woulda told me

If you want love, you gon' have to go through the pain
If you want love, you gon' have to learn how to change
If you want trust, you gon' have to give some away
If you want love, if you want love

The older I get, I feel like I'm always tryna save time
Talkin' to the voices in my head, they make me think twice
Tellin' me it doesn't mean it's wrong because it feels right
I'm scared that one day I wake up and wonder where the time go
Talk about the past like it's the present while I rock slow
I'll sit in the living room and laugh with kids of my own
And tell 'em

If you want love, you gon' have to go through the pain
I wish you woulda told me
If you want love, you gon' have to learn how to change
I wish somebody woulda told me
If you want trust, you gon' have to give some away
You gon' have to give
If you want love, if you want love
If you want love, if you want love 

 

David Guetta & Chris Willis - Love Is Gone

 
Now that the love is gone!

What are we supposed to do?
After all that we've been through.
When everything that felt so right is wrong,
Now that the love is gone (love is gone)

What are we supposed to do?
After all that we've been through.
When everything that felt so right is wrong,
Now that the love is gone.

There is nothing left to prove,
No use to deny this simple truth.
Can't find the reason to keep holding on,
Now that the love is gone (love is gone)

Now that the love is gone,
What felt so right's so wrong,
Now that the love is gone.

I feel so hurt inside,
Feel so hurt inside,
Got to find the reason.

What are we supposed to do?
After all that we've been through.
When everything that felt so right is wrong,
Now that the love is gone.

Got to find a reason, got to find a reason...
Got to find a reason, got to find a reason...
Got to find a reason to hold!!

Love,
There's nothing left for us to say (yeah)
Love,
Why can't we turn and walk away.

What are we supposed to do?
After all that we've been through.
When everything that felt so right is wrong,
Now that the love is gone.

What are we supposed to do?
After all that we've been through.
When everything that felt so right is wrong,
Now that the love is gone.

Love is Gone!

Metallica - The Unforgiven

 
New blood joins this earth,
And quickly he's subdued.
Through constant pained disgrace
The young boy learns their rules.

With time the child draws in.
This whipping boy done wrong.
Deprived of all his thoughts
The young man struggles on and on he's known
A vow unto his own,
That never from this day
His will they'll take away.

What I've felt,
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown.
Never be.
Never see.
Won't see what might have been.

What I've felt,
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown.
Never free.
Never me.
So I dub thee unforgiven.

They dedicate their lives
To running all of his.
He tries to please them all –
This bitter man he is.

Throughout his life the same –
He's battled constantly.
This fight he cannot win –
A tired man they see no longer cares.

The old man then prepares
To die regretfully –
That old man here is me.

What I've felt,
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown.
Never be.
Never see.
Won't see what might have been.

What I've felt,
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown.
Never free.
Never me.
So I dub thee unforgiven.

What I've felt,
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown.
Never be.
Never see.
Won't see what might have been.

What I've felt,
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown.
Never free.
Never me.
So I dub thee unforgiven.

Never free.
Never me.
So I dub thee unforgiven.

You labelled me,
I'll label you.
So I dub thee unforgiven.

Never free.
Never me.
So I dub thee unforgiven.

You labelled me,
I'll label you.
So I dub thee unforgiven.

Never free.
Never me.
So I dub thee unforgiven. 

 

Trivium - The Phalanx

 
Within the thrill, amidst the kill
One against all, soon blood will spill
We cannot wait to make your pain
We are the burn inside your brain

Herding the weak to fire
Scorching the fleeing liars
Witness the dying saboteurs
Carcasses washed upon the shores

Don't let this take me
Split me wide open
Rip me from the stars

Burn the bridge
Take the ash
Scatter deceptiveness

We are the ones who led the way
This path to hell and misery
An endless war, a hollow cause
When we all die, we'll see no gods

Herding the weak to fire
Scorching the fleeing liars
Witness the dying saboteurs
Carcasses washed upon the shores

Don't let this take me
Split me wide open
Rip me from the stars

Burn the bridge
Take the ash
Scatter deceptiveness

I'm the source
Of your hate
Only yourself to blame

Dying
Dying once seemed so heroic to me
Giving this body for a people in need
Now I realize there is nothing to see
Nothing but dirt and decay

Decay
Decay

Dying
Dying once seemed so heroic to me
Giving this body for a people in need
Now I realize there is nothing to see
Nothing but dirt and decay

Decay
Decay

Don't let this take me
Split me wide open
Rip me from the stars

Don't let this take me
Split me wide open
Rip me from the stars

Don't let this take me
Split me wide open
Rip me from the stars

If they should take me
Then may they break me
Kill me, burn me
But I'll stay torched into the heart

Don't let this take me
Split me wide open
Rip me from the stars

Don't let this take me
Split me wide open
Rip me from the stars

If they should take me
Then may they break me
Kill me, burn me
But I'll stay torched into the heart 

 

Rammstein - Sonne

 
Eins, zwei, drei, vier, fünf, sechs, sieben, acht, neun, aus!

Alle warten auf das Licht
Fürchtet euch, fürchtet euch nicht
Die Sonne scheint mir aus den Augen
Sie wird heut Nacht nicht untergeh'n
Und die Welt zählt laut bis zehn

Eins, hier kommt die Sonne
Zwei, hier kommt die Sonne
Drei, sie ist der hellste Stern von allen
Vier, hier kommt die Sonne

Die Sonne scheint mir aus den Händen
Kann verbrennen, kann euch blenden
Wenn sie aus den Fäusten bricht
Legt sich heiß auf das Gesicht
Sie wird heut Nacht nicht untergeh'n
Und die Welt zählt laut bis zehn

Eins, hier kommt die Sonne
Zwei, hier kommt die Sonne
Drei, sie ist der hellste Stern von allen
Vier, hier kommt die Sonne
Fünf, hier kommt die Sonne
Sechs, hier kommt die Sonne
Sieben, sie ist der hellste Stern von allen
Acht, neun, hier kommt die Sonne

Die Sonne scheint mir aus den Händen
Kann verbrennen, kann dich blenden
Wenn sie aus den Fäusten bricht
Legt sich heiß auf dein Gesicht
Legt sich schmerzend auf die Brust
Das Gleichgewicht wird zum Verlust
Lässt dich hart zu Boden geh'n
Und die Welt zählt laut bis zehn

Eins, hier kommt die Sonne
Zwei, hier kommt die Sonne
Drei, sie ist der hellste Stern von allen
Vier, und wird nie vom Himmel fallen
Fünf, hier kommt die Sonne
Sechs, hier kommt die Sonne
Sieben, sie ist der hellste Stern von allen
Acht, neun, Hier kommt die Sonne 

 

Like A Storm - The Devil Inside

 
Make me believe I'm human
Make me believe I'm not the voice in my mind
I don't believe all the wrong I've done is forgiven
Make me believe I'm living
Make me believe I'm not the face that I hide
I don't believe another day I can breathe so forsaken

Can you see my disease
Can not hide what's inside

I'm moving paralyzed
And living hypnotized
Hit right between the eyes
Living with the Devil inside

Can you see my disease
Meet the Devil inside of me

Is this the fate I've been given
I hear it calling in the dead of the night
I don't believe I can ever be free
Of this hell that lives inside of me

Can you see my disease
Can not hide what's inside

I'm moving paralyzed
And living hypnotized
Hit right between the eyes
Living with the Devil inside

See the face inside
Look me in the eye and see the face inside
Look me in the eye and see the face I hide

I'm moving paralyzed
And living hypnotized
Hit right between the eyes
Living with the Devil inside

Look me in the eye and see the face inside
Look me in the eye and see the face I hide 

 

Asking Alexandria - Alone In A Room

 
I've been away, a little while
Sometimes I just can't help myself
When my mind's running wild
I seem to lose grip on reality
And I try to disregard the crazy things
The voices tell me to do but it's no use
I tried to own it, write songs about it
Believe me, I tried, in the end I needed to breathe
Find inspiration, some kind of purpose
To take a second to face the shit that makes me me

All I needed was the last thing I wanted
To sit alone in a room and say it all out loud
Every moment, every second, every trespass
Every awful thing, every broken dream
A couple years back and forth with myself in a cage
Banging my head against the wall, tryna put words on a page
All I needed was the last thing I wanted
To be alone in a room, alone in a room

I saw the world a couple times
Tried to cure the ache with absence
But that hole was still a hole
And my mind kept playing tricks on me
Feeling older every day
Took everything I had to not crash and burn
But I'm starting to learn
Sometimes I'll fall down, sometimes I'll lose hope
But those days will be few if I keep my feet on the ground
I might be lonely but I ain't alone here
So I keep pushing the limits of what makes me me

All I needed was the last thing I wanted
To sit alone in a room and say it all out loud
Every moment, every second, every trespass
Every awful thing, every broken dream
A couple years back and forth with myself in a cage
Banging my head against the wall, tryna put words on a page
All I needed was the last thing I wanted
To be alone in a room, alone in a room

I can be better than I was
I can be better than I am

All I needed was the last thing I wanted
To sit alone in a room

All I needed was the last thing I wanted
To sit alone in a room and say it all out loud
Every moment, every second, every trespass
Every awful thing, every broken dream
A couple years back and forth with myself in a cage
Banging my head against the wall, tryna put words on a page
All I needed was the last thing I wanted
To be alone in a room, alone in a room
