Raleigh Ritchie - Stronger Than Ever
But when I'm here I need your kindness 'cause the climb is always stressful
Clumsily gas myself by thinking I'll be better off alone
I'll leave my peace in pieces all around the decent people back at home
'Cause I'm a big boy, an adult now or nearly
If I pull the wool back from my eyes I can see clearly
The world is at my feet and I am standing on the ceiling
And I fall, fall, fall, when it all comes down
And I won't be crushed by the weight of this town
I fall from the sky but I won't fall forever
I fall but when I rise I'll be stronger than ever
Official man, delusions grand and now I'm a free agent
I'm here to make a stand for causes I don't understand and make a statement
I fall short on knowledge, I don't even watch the news
Can't be arsed with college, it's nothing but a human zoo
'Cause I'm a big boy, an adult now or nearly
If I pull the wool back from my eyes I can see clearly
The world is at my feet and I am standing on the ceiling
And I fall, fall, fall, when it all comes down
And I won't be crushed by the weight of this town
I fall from the sky but I won't fall forever
I fall but when I rise I'll be stronger than ever
I'm not defeated, I believe that I can turn this ship around
Destroy the status quo until I know I found a common ground
I'm not alone, I'm just focused in my zone, this is easy
I'm fine, I just need time to turn this into home, I'm good, believe me
Believe me when I say I'm gonna be
Big explosions crack through thunderous mountains
Hearts exploding, minds, volcanoes pop and blow
I'm not alone, I'm not alone
Who am I kidding? I'm sad, no ideas coming
It's driving me mad and I'm fighting it
It's turning me bad, I'm loaded, rage is taking me over
I just wanna be home with all my friends and family
Mum and Dad, it's closing in on me, I need recovery, coming home
I'm coming home and I need closure, I need closure
'Cause I'm a big boy, an adult now or nearly
If I pull the wool back from my eyes I can see clearly
The world is at my feet and I am standing on the ceiling
And I fall, fall, fall, when it all comes down
And I won't be crushed by the weight of this town
I fall from the sky but I won't fall forever
I fall but when I rise I'll be stronger than ever
Biffy Clyro - Space
We didn't care what we were made of
Our eyes were set on a distant sun
It was shimmering gold
Then slowly one by one
We carried our past and cradled the storm
We tried to conceal the scars we wore
'Cause we couldn't show what we couldn't show
I get lost sometimes
With you I am found
I get lost so I'll follow the light to your heart
Will you wait, will you wait for me?
There's always a space in my heart
I'm still caught in your gravity
No matter the distance between us
Our joy lives in the moments we share
Love's truest meaning lives when you're not there
Will you wait, will you wait for me?
There's always a space in my heart for you
And then the silence fell
We bit our tongues, with which we tell
All of our dreams, and the stories we sell
But we didn't know what we didn't know
I get lost sometimes
With you I am found
I get lost so I'll follow the light to your heart
Will you wait, will you wait for me?
There's always a space in my heart
I'm still caught in your gravity
No matter the distance between us
Our joy lives in the moments we share
Love's truest meaning lives when you're not there
Will you wait, will you wait for me?
There's always a space in my heart
There's always a space in my heart
There's always a space in my heart
Heart
Will you wait, will you wait for me?
There's always a space in my heart
I'm still caught in your gravity
No matter the distance between us
Our joy lives in the moments we share
Love's truest meaning lives when you're not there
Will you wait, will you wait for me?
There's always a space in my heart for you
Shakespears Sister - The Trouble With Andre
Trouble is he tends to agree
Let's not ask too many questions
It's nothing to do with you or me
He remembers a time when even going home was sweet
Now he can't feel the ground under his feet
And she said
"The trouble with Andre
Is he thinks he hides everything"
But I know the trouble with Andre
Is he's a liar
Inside the dresser by the table
Something he keeps beside the bed
Living with Andre can't be easy
Some things are better left unsaid
He remembers a time before the waters got so deep
When he found it easier to sleep
And she said
"The trouble with Andre
Is he thinks he hides everything"
But I know the trouble with Andre
I he's a liar
And you know
The trouble with Andre
Is he thinks he fools everyone
But I know the trouble with Andre
Is his disguise

Basil Poledouris - Conan The Barbarian main theme/Anvil Of Crom
James Brown - Living In America
Ow! Knock out this!
Super highways, coast to coast
Easy to get anywhere
On the transcontinental overload
Just slide behind the wheel
How does it feel
When there's no destination that's too far
And somewhere on the way
You might find out who you are
Living in America
Eye to eye, station to station
Living in America
Hand to hand, across the nation
Living in America
Got to have a celebration
Rock my soul
Smokestack, fatback
Many miles of railroad track
All night radio, keep on runnin' through
Your rock 'n' roll soul
All night diners keep you awake, hey
On black coffee and a hard roll
You might have to walk the fine line
You might take the hard line
But everybody's working overtime
Living in America
Eye to eye, station to station
Living in America
Hand to hand, across the nation
Living in America
Got to have a celebration
I live in America, help me out
But I live in America
Wait a minute
You may not be looking for the promised land
But you might find it anyway
Under one of those old familiar names
Like New Orleans (New Orleans)
Detroit City (Detroit City), Dallas (Dallas)
Pittsburgh P.A. (Pittsburgh P.A.)
New York City (New York City)
Kansas City (Kansas City)
Atlanta (Atlanta)
Chicago and L.A.
Living in America - hit me
Living in America - yeah
I walk in and out
Living in America
I live in America - state lines
Gonna make the prime, that
I live in America - hey
I know what it means, I
Living in America
Eddie Murphy, eat your heart out
Living in America
Hit me, I said now
Eye to eye, Station to station
Living in America
So nice, with your bad self
Living in America - I feel good!
John Newman - Love Me Again
Left your heart torn
Is that what devils do?
Took you so low,
Where only fools go
I shook the angel in you
Now I’m rising from the ground
Rising up to you
Filled with all the strength I found
There's nothing I can’t do!
I need to know now, know now
Can you love me again?
I need to know now, know now
Can you love me again?
I need to know now, know now
Can you love me again?
I need to know now, know now
Can you love me again?
Can you love me again?
It’s unforgivable,
I stole and burnt your soul
Is that what demons do?
They rule the worst of me
Destroy everything,
They bring down angels like you
Now I’m rising from the ground
Rising up to you
Filled with all the strength I've found
There's nothing I can’t do!
I need to know now, know now
Can you love me again?
I need to know now, know now
Can you love me again?
Can you love me again?
I told you once I can't do this again, do this again, oh, no
I told you once I can't do this again, do this again, oh, no
I need to know now, know now
Can you love me again?
I need to know now, know now
Can you love me again?
I need to know now, know now
Can you love me again?
I need to know now, know now
Oh, oh (can you love me again?)
Can you love me again?
Can you love me again?

Justin King - Scars
Within Temptation - Mercy Mirror
You're in my blood from the cradle to the grave
I don't like to think about the pieces
Or the cracks and the breaks that still remain
If I could breathe, I'd ask you
So look in my mercy mirror
I need you more than I have known
So look in my mercy mirror
'Cause I'm not ready to let you go
Now I know, now I know
I'm not ready to let you go
Now I know, now I know
I'm not ready to let you go
I'm not ready to let you go
My heart like a planet the sun forgot
Where now? Orbiting the light that I had lost
More than words is silence teaches
How to see and to feel what is real
When sunlight reaches my soul?
So look in my mercy mirror
I need you more than I have known
So look in my mercy mirror
'Cause I'm not ready to let you go
Now I know, now I know
I'm not ready to let you go
Now I know, now I know
I'm not ready to let you go
It's a wicked game life plays
How it gives and takes away
No turning 'round, touching ground
What we had was so much more than I realized
If I could, I'd embrace, embrace you
And look in my mercy mirror
I need you more than I have known
So look in my mercy mirror
'Cause I'm not ready to let you go
Now I know, now I know
I'm not ready to let you go
Now I know, now I know
I'm not ready to let you go
I'm not ready to let you go

Iñigo Quintero - Será Por Ti
Si te vas, ya no tengo motivos pa' verte
Tus palabras curaban mi fragilidad
¿Y cómo vas?
Sin tantas locuras que puedan hacer que tú quieras quedarte
Porque yo he tardado tanto en olvidarte
Me he da'o cuenta de que todo era amarte
Porque el tiempo no ha cambiado, todo arde
Será por ti, no puedo
Será por mí, no puedo
Es que ya no puedo imaginarte
Pidiéndome que vuelva yo a por ti
Y es que ya no puedo imaginarme
Me da que ya no puedo ser feliz
¿Por qué será así?
Todo lo has cambiado para ser feliz
Nada de lo que hice valió para ti
Todo lo que fuimos se esfumó de aquí
(Si te vas de aquí) y qué duro fue verte partir
(Vuelves a por mí) se me parte el alma si no estás aquí
(Si te vas así) solo quiero poder compartir
(Si no estoy yo aquí) ser el dueño de mi tiempo y pensar en mí
Porque yo he tardado tanto en olvidarte
Me he da'o cuenta de que todo era amarte
Porque el tiempo no ha cambiado y todo arde
Será por ti, otra vez
Será por mí, yo no sé
¿Por qué?
¿Por qué?
¿Y por qué volviste a mí?
Si yo no era nada para ti
¿Y por qué?
Con la cara empapada
(Si te vas de aquí) y qué duro fue verte partir
(Vuelves a por mí) se me parte el alma si no estás aquí
(Si te vas así) solo quiero poder compartir
(Si no estoy junto a ti) ser el dueño de mi tiempo y pensar en mí
Porque yo he tardado tanto en olvidarte
Me he da'o cuenta de que todo fue amarte
I Prevail ft. Delaney Jane - Every Time You Leave (Up!)
But holding it together is the hardest part
No one said life gets in the way
That our plans may change, but our hearts remain
You stand in the doorway holding me
Feeling the tension, you beg and plead
Not to go away again
And then she said
Every time you leave
I lose a little piece of me
Every time we speak
Words don't do it justice
It's just us from here, here, here
And that's when she said
Every time you leave
I lose a little piece of me
All I ever wanted was to find someone
But finishing the puzzle is the hardest part
Everyday wishing you could stay
'Cause our minds may change, but our hearts remain
You stand in the doorway holding me
Lost in the moment I can't believe
You gotta go away again
Hear me when I say
Every time you leave
I lose a little piece of me
And every time we speak
Words don't do it justice
It's just us from here, here, here
And that's when she said
Every time you leave
I lose a little piece of me
'Cause if you ever start to hesitate
And you feel the weight, it starts to break
We're not the same
Know that this means everything to me
Oh, to me, oh, to me, oh, to me, oh, to me
Every time you leave
I lose a little piece of me
And every time we speak
Words don't do it justice
Every time you leave
I lose a little piece of me
And every time we speak
Words don't do it justice
It's just us from here, here, here
And that's when she said
Every time you leave
I lose a little piece of me
All I ever wanted was to find someone
But finishing the puzzle is the hardest part
(I lose a little piece of me)
No one said life gets in the way
It just us from here, here
(I lose a little piece of me)
Here
I lose a little piece of me

In Flames - Come Clarity
Getting older every day... by two
Drawing pictures of innocent times
Can you add color... inside these lines?
I want you to lead me
Take me somewhere
Don't want to live
In a dream... one more day
Take me somewhere
Don't want to live
In a dream... one more day
Sure it would change my perspective
I'm certain I would change today
I'm certain it would change our ways
Would things fall into place?
I want you to lead me
Take me somewhere
Just don't want to live
In a dream one more day
Take me somewhere
Just don't want to live
In a dream one more day
Just don't want to live
In a dream one more day
Chicago - Hard To Say I'm Sorry
I heard her say, from each other
Even lovers need a holiday
Far away, from each other
Hold me now
It's hard for me to say I'm sorry
I just want you to stay
After all that we've been through
I will make it up to you, I promise to
And after all that's been said and done
You're just the part of me I can't let go
Couldn't stand to be kept away
Just for the day, from your body
Wouldn't want to be swept away
Far away, from the one that I love
Hold me now
It's hard for me to say I'm sorry
I just want you to know
Hold me now
I really want to tell you I'm sorry
I could never let you go
After all that we've been through
I will make it up to you, I promise to
And after all that's been said and done
You're just the part of me I can't let go
After all that we've been through
I will make it up to you, I promise to
You're going to be the lucky one
I Prevail - Alone
It was us against the world, but now
I’ve been sleeping on my own
Spending all these nights alone knowing you’re not coming home
Cause you’re running through my dreams
It’s like you’re on repeat
Feels like eternity, and I can’t believe
I let you in, you left me out
You left me on my own, you left me all alone
I let you in, you bled me out
You left me skin and bone, you left me all alone
You left me all alone
I would’ve gave it all
Truth be told I can’t believe you’re gone
Like a dream I can’t recall
Now I gotta face the fact that you’re never coming back
Cause you’re running through my dreams
It’s like you’re on repeat
Feels like eternity, and I can’t believe
I let you in, you left me out
You left me on my own, you left me all alone
I let you in, you bled me out
You left me skin and bone, you left me all alone
You used to run, run through my veins
And to be honest, I know I’ll never be the same
I let you in, you left me out
You left me on my own, you left me all alone
You left me all alone
I see you in my dreams
I can’t believe you’re gone
When it’s too dark to see
I’ll leave the light on
I’ll leave the light on
I’ll leave the light on
When it’s too dark to see
I let you in, you left me out
You left me on my own, you left me all alone
I let you in, you bled me out
You left me skin and bone, you left me all alone
You used to run, run through my veins
And to be honest, I know I’ll never be the same
I let you in, you left me out
You left me on my own, you left me all alone
Kalax ft. Pyxis, Jay Diggs - Out Of Time
Time is running out for me and you
So what you gonna do?
Yeah I know, yeah I know
We just met, but I made my up mind on you
And I hope you're feeling too
Just take my hand
May I have this dance tonight?
Just take a chance
Before we run out of time
This one moment
That only comes once in a life
Let's fall in love before we run out of time
Just take my hand
May I have this dance tonight?
Just take a chance
Before we run out of time
This one moment
That only comes once in a life
Let's fall in love before we run out of time
Run out of time, run out of time
Do you know, do you know
Just how hard it is
To play cool and numb with you
I love the way the moonlight
Bounces off your sundress
And you pretty eyes shine through the darkness
Only you
May I have this dance tonight?
Just take a chance
Before we run out of time
This one moment
That only comes once in a life
Let's fall in love before we run out of time
Run out of time, run out of time
Let's fall in love before we run out of time
Run out of time, run out of time
Sarah McLachlan - Angel
For that second chance
For a break that would make it okay
There's always some reason
To feel not good enough
And it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
Oh, beautiful release
Memory seeps from my veins
Let me be empty
Oh, and weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight
In the arms of the angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
So tired of the straight line
And everywhere you turn
There's vultures and thieves at your back
And the storm keeps on twisting
You keep on building the lie
That you make up for all that you lack
It don't make no difference
Escaping one last time
It's easier to believe in this sweet madness oh
This glorious sadness that brings me to my knees
In the arms of the angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here

U2 - Beautiful Day
There's no room, no space to rent in this town
You're out of luck, and the reason that you had to care
The traffic is stuck, and you're not moving anywhere
You thought you'd found a friend to take you out of this place
Someone you could lend a hand in return for grace
It's a beautiful day
Sky falls, you feel like
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
You're on the road, but you've got no destination
You're in the mud, in the maze of her imagination
You love this town even if that doesn't ring true
You've been all over, and it's been all over you
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
It's a beautiful day
Ooh-hoo-hoo
Touch me
Take me to that other place
Teach me
I know I'm not a hopeless case
See the world in green and blue
See China right in front of you
See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the Bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light
And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colours came out
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
Beautiful day
Touch me
Take me to that other place
Reach me
I know I'm not a hopeless case
What you don't have you don't need it now
What you don't know you can feel it somehow
What you don't have you don't need it now
Don't need it now
Was a beautiful day
