"Sweating Bullets" by Megadeth:
Hello me...Meet the real me.
And my misfits way of life.
A dark black past is my
Most valued possession.
Hindsight is always 20-20,
But looking back it's still a bit fuzzy.
Speak of mutually assured destruction?
Nice story...Tell it to Reader's Digest!!!
Feeling paranoid
True enemy or false friend?
Anxiety's attacking me, and
My air is getting thin.
I'm in trouble for the things
I haven't got to yet.
I'm chomping at the bit, and my
Palms are getting wet, sweating bullets.
Hello me...It's me again.
You can subdue, but never tame me.
It gives me a migraine headache
Sinking down to your level.
Yea, just keep on thinking it's my fault
And stay an inch or two outta kicking distance.
Mankind has got to know
His limitations.
Feeling claustrophobic,
Like the walls are closing in.
Blood stains on my hands and
I don't know where I've been.
I'm in trouble for the things
I haven't got to yet.
I'm sharpening the axe and my
Palms are getting wet, sweating bullets.
Well, me...it's nice talking to myself,
A credit to dementia.
Some day you too will know my pain,
And smile its blacktooth grin.
If the war inside my head
Won't take a day off I'll be dead.
My icy fingers claw your back,
Here I come again.
Feeling paranoid
True enemy or false friend?
Anxiety's attacking me
And my air is getting thin
Feeling claustrophobic,
Like the walls are closing in.
Blood stains on my hands and
I don't know where I've been
Once you committed me
Now you've acquitted me
Claiming validity
For your stupidity
I'm chomping at the bit
I'm sharpening the axe
Here I come again, whoa!
Sweating bullets

"Down Again" by Chimaira:
How many times can it change
How long will I be restrained
It's appalling to think that
All my time seems to be wasted
Will it stop or is it only beginning
Here on the inside
My life is not over
I'm down again
Fake smiles surround me all day
No more can I tolerate
These excuses or all this
Constant pressure overloading
Make it stop the fire's always burning
+++++++++++++++++++++
"Down" by Motograter:
We're falling
Throughout eternity
The clock is ticking
And you're still counting sheep
You're still half asleep
There's no one coming (there's no one coming)
And there's no way out (and there's no way out)
I've been falling (well I've been falling)
And it's so far down
Shrouded
Beneath the vail of tragedy
Who will you believe?
Tell me who will you believe?
When it's down to you and me
Will you still stay on your knees?
(When it's down to you and me)
There's no one coming (there's no one coming)
And there's no way out (and there's no way out)
I've been falling (well I've been falling)
And it's so far down (and it's so far down)
There's no one coming (there's no one coming)
And there's no way out
There's no way out (way out)
Pushing me down, breaking me down
There's always something
Pushing me down, breaking me down
Pushing me down, breaking me down
There's always something
Pushing me down, breaking me down
Pushing me down, breaking me down
There's always something
Pushing me down, breaking me down
Pushing you down, breaking you down
There's always something
Pushing you back, pushing you back
I'm pushing you back, I'm pushing you back
I'm pushing you back, I'm pushing you back
I'm pushing you back, I'm pushing you back
There's no one coming
And there's no way out
Well I've been falling
And it's a long way down
Down

"All Against All" by The Haunted:
Shut your fucking mouth.
You don't know a single thing about me.
So I heard what you said when he walked away.
Don't you think I can add up the numbers.
It's a sour taste.
A knowledge I wish I've never gained.
So you think you could match me?
Well these are the things I see.
[Chorus:]
A perfect body. A twisted mind.
Starvation and loathing.
We fuck 'til it bleeds.
Scratch claw and scream.
'Til it feels like I'm almost alive...
These are the words to justify
All against all.
I'm so sick and tired of it. Treat me like meat.
Tear me to pieces and feed the dogs.
A thousand polite tiny lies,
and I've memorized every single one of them.
Did you think for a second i'd give you a taste -
well I'm sorry to say:
You could turn yourself inside out - I'd still walk away.
[Chorus:]
A perfect body. A twisted mind.
Starvation and loathing.
We fuck 'til it bleeds.
Scratch claw and scream.
'Til it feels like I'm almost alive...
These are the words to justify
All against all.
Broken promises.
Like ashes trough my fingers.
It eats away my senses and my soul.
I wither - prehaps I said too much?
I just want somebody I can trust.
[Chorus:]
A perfect body. A twisted mind.
Starvation and loathing.
We fuck 'til it bleeds.
Scratch claw and scream.
'Til it feels like I'm almost alive...
These are the words to justify
All against all.

"The Nobodies" by Marilyn Manson
Today I am dirty
I want to be pretty
Tomorrow, I know I'm just dirt
Today I am dirty
I want to be pretty
Tomorrow, I know I'm just dirt
We are the nobodies
we wanna be somebodies
when we're dead,
they'll know just who we are
We are the nobodies
we wanna be somebodies
when we're dead,
they'll know just who we are
Yesterday I was dirty
wanted to be pretty
I know now that I'm forever dirt
Yesterday I was dirty
wanted to be pretty
I know now that I'm forever dirt
We are the nobodies
we wanna be somebodies
when we're dead,
they'll know just who we are
We are the nobodies
we wanna be somebodies
when we're dead,
they'll know just who we are
Some children died the other day
we fed machines and then we prayed
puked up and down in morbid faith
you should have seen the ratings that day
+++++++++++++++++++++
"Coma White" by Marilyn Manson
There's something cold and blank
behind her smile
She's standing on an overpass
In her miracle mile
You were from a perfect world
A world that threw me away today
Today to run away
A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb
A pill to make you anybody else
But all the drugs in this world
Won't save her from herself
Her mouth was an empty cut
And she was waiting to fall
Just bleeding like a polaroid that
Lost all her dolls
You were from a perfect world
A world that threw me away today
Today to run away
A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb
A pill to make you anybody else
But all the drugs in this world
Won't save her from herself

"Sorgens Kammer - Del II" by Dimmu Borgir:
Minnenes ekko stiller timen
Kneblet i tungsinnets lenker faller jeg ifra
Ikke lenger vil jeg være boltet fast i vemodighetens anker
Men endelig få lengselens slukket - Etter å dra
Drakk jeg for meget av livshåpets krus
Tok jeg gledens forfengelighet for gitt
For min strid mot tomhetens smerte - Denne dødsangstens rus
Er det eneste ene igjen - Som er mitt
I min ensomhet vet jeg likevel
At jeg ikke har noen andre å takke enn meg selv
Derfor er jeg rolig når
Repet strammer rundt min nakke
Stumme viner kan ei gi trøst
Menigmann i gravkorets forsamling vil aldri fatte
Det landet av fortapelse
Jeg egenhendig skapte
Denne intense dragning mot dødens portaler
(Har jeg som) En vandrende studie i gråtkvalt messe-noir
Behersket siden tidens morgen
Men noe jeg aldri lot slippe taket - Var sorgen
[English translation:]
[Chambers Of Sorrow Part II]
The echoes of silence sets the hour.
Gagged in the chains of "depression", I fall away.
No more I will be bolted fast in the anchor of "melancholy".
But finally get my longing "fulfilled" - for leaving.
Did I drink too much from the goblet of "lifehope"?
Did I take the vanity of joy for granted?
For my battle against the pain of emptiness - this intoxication of the angst of death,
Is all that is left... that is mine.
In my loneliness I still know,
That I have none to thank but myself.
This is why I remain calm,
As the rope is tightening around my neck.
Silent witnesses can not give comfort.
The ordinary man in the assembly of the "gravechoir".
Tha land of perdition
I created by my own hands.
This intense attraction to the portals of death
(I have as) A wandering study of tearful messe-noir.
Controlled since the dawning of time,
But something I never would let go.. was the sorrow.
++++++++++++++++++++++++
"What Drives The Weak" by Shadows Fall
This time released security
Controlled dose of tranquility
Forgetfulness washes over me
Put to rest the voices of insanity
Only the cinders remain
As another night
Becomes a yesterday
Come on! Anesthetize the panic
It is what drives the weak
You're gone! Anesthetize the panic
Putting all uncertainties to sleep
Not an altered state of mind
But a safer place in an unsafe world
Within the nearness of death
Rapture in the skip of a heartbeat
+++++++++++++++++++++
"Wait" by Earshot
Somethings wrong
Trying to conquer these fears I've thought were gone
And it's been so long
I'm dying to live in a world I don't belong
I can't wait for someone to hear me
And wait for someone to touch me
And wait for ever to be told
I'm forever alone
I can't wait for someone to feel me
And wait (wait) for (for) someone to heal me
And wait for ever to be told
I'm forever alone
On my own
I've shown myself
What it means to be alone
And the tears I cry
Have washed away all the scars of my disguise
I can't wait for someone to hear me
And wait for someone to touch me
And wait for ever to be told
I'm forever alone
I can't wait for someone to feel me
And wait (wait) for (for) someone to heal me
And wait for ever to be told
I'm forever alone
I'm forever alone
I'm forever alone
I'm forever alone
I am not waiting here this time
I can't wait for someone to hear me
And wait for someone to touch me
And wait for ever to be told
I'm forever alone
I can't wait for someone to feel me
And wait (wait) for (for) someone to heal me
And wait for ever to be told
I'm forever alone
I'm forever alone

"Forget to Remember" by Mudvayne:
What have I done?
Where have I come from?
When I burnt the backs with the sun through a glass did I seal the loss that's become me?
Feeling undone.
What have I become?
When I turned my back on you I turned my back on myself.
And became this machine.
Thoughlessness, selfishness, hopelessness, arrogant.
I feel it on the inside, twisting and contorting, memory has shaped me once again.
Still feel you on the inside, biting through and stinging.
Will I ever forget to remember?
Shadows in the sun filter through us.
Still wrestle the demons that arrested me as a child.
Confession rejected.
We grow up to give up.
People step on the cracks for wounds owed paid back.
Through the words of surrender.
Emptiness, loneliness, listlessness, worthless.
I feel it on the inside, twisting and contorting.
Memory has shaped me once again.
Still feel you on the inside, biting through and stinging.
Will I ever forget to remember?
Can you save me from myself, from these memories.
Can you save me from myself, from these memories.
Surrender, to the shadows, haunting inside, bleed through you.
Surrender to the secrets inside.
Lies within you.
I feel it on the inside, twisting and contorting.
Memory has shaped me once again.
Still feel you on the inside, biting through and stinging.
Will I ever forget to remember?
Can't feel you on the inside, set down the bag and left it.
Lost memory has left me.
One again.
Open up the inside, admission for the cleansing, now that I've forgotten to remember.
Surrender to the shadows, haunting, inside, bleed through you.
++++++++++++++++++++++
"Enemy" by Fozzy
Do you remember me
You can't see the things
That make me who I am
You'll never understand
And I gotta keep moving, you're living off my sweat
Moving, the devil's on my back
And these are the days that I dreamed about
And you're always there to remind me
You're my enemy
All that we had has gone away
There are times that fade away
But you'll still be my enemy
The friend you had in me
You turned on so easily
I'm sad to see you go
At least now I know
And I see clearly now
You tried to bleed me
And I see clearly now
You tried to feed on me

"Note to Self" by From First to Last
two roads split off from here, and my life goes running in opposite directions,
exaggerating the barrier between who i am and who i want to be
i wanted to be that breath of fresh air, when everything smelled so insincere,
but its taste still lingers in my mouth, deceit has ways of sticking around,
when im ready to disappear, vacation seems far from here
note to self: i miss you terribly, this is what we call a tragedy, come back to me
i can feel my mind wandering again, into where i dont know, and will i ever get home?
time starts moving, faster than i can, im getting sick of this scene, i need to break the routine
two roads split off from here, and my life goes running in opposite directions,
exaggerating the barrier between who i am and who i want to be
which part of me is lost? i feel so close, but im still so far

"Victim" by Eighteen Visions
(One Two Three GO!)
You can't be saved
You've gone and dug your grave
And its getting deeper by the minute
Well you had to turn your back
Ain't cutting you no slack
Hooked on your lies you had me going
Chorus:
(So give me one)
Good reason i should be forgivin' you when I don't care anyway
(So give me two)
good reasons i should be forgivin' you when I'm the victim today
You threw it all away
Still gettin high today
You'll crash and burn before you know it
Addicted to your lies
Think I've been victimized
Same day same night same situation
Chorus
GO!
And I feel like I'm the victim x2
I feel like I have be criticized (yeah yeah)
By every little thing you say
Now I don't really care cause you're the one thats going down
And now I've left you here for dead
Chorus x2
(So give one)
Good reason I should be forgivin' you
(So give me two)
Good reasons I should be forgivin' you
And I feel like I'm the victim
