This song was my ABSOLUTE favorite as a kid, and I just found it on WinMX and downloaded it.. oh, the memories...

This was my dad's favorite too, so I'm listening to it in memory of him.

Listen, children, to a story
That was written long ago,
'Bout a kingdom on a mountain
And the valley-folk below.

On the mountain was a treasure
Buried deep beneath the stone,
And the valley-people swore
They'd have it for their very own.

Go ahead and hate your neighbor,
Go ahead and cheat a friend.
Do it in the name of Heaven,
You can justify it in the end.
There won't be any trumpets blowing
Come the judgement day,
On the bloody morning after....
One tin soldier rides away.

So the people of the valley
Sent a message up the hill,
Asking for the buried treasure,
Tons of gold for which they'd kill.

Came an answer from the kingdom,
"With our brothers we will share
All the secrets of our mountain,
All the riches buried there."

Now the valley cried with anger,
"Mount your horses! Draw your sword!"
And they killed the mountain-people,
So they won their just reward.

Now they stood beside the treasure,
On the mountain, dark and red.
Turned the stone and looked beneath it...
"Peace on Earth" was all it said.

Go ahead and hate your neighbor,
Go ahead and cheat a friend.
Do it in the name of Heaven,
You can justify it in the end.
There won't be any trumpets blowing
Come the judgement day,
On the bloody morning after....
One tin soldier rides away.

Go ahead and hate your neighbor,
Go ahead and cheat a friend.
Do it in the name of Heaven,
You can justify it in the end.
There won't be any trumpets blowing
Come the judgement day,
On the bloody morning after....
One tin soldier rides away.

One Tin Soldier

[SenkoTwiik]

"Just like a parent,
Want to shield you from all the pain.
No matter how much inside,
that they're suffering.
True sacrifice is like the wings of a dove,
And it's real,
Because it's all love coming again."
-Tear Jerker, Jamie Madrox

"I don't want to meet your friend,
and I don't want to start over again.
I just want my life to be the same,
Just like it used to be.
Sometimes I hate everything.
Everyone and everything.
Please don't tell me, "everything is wonderful now!"
-Wonderful, Everclear

"Get you high, and can't calm down.
Losing my head, spinning round and round.
Do you feel me now?
With the taste of your lips,
I'm on a ride.
You're toxic,
I'm slipping under.
With the taste of a poison paradise,
I'm addicted to you,
But you know that you're toxic.
And I love what you do,
But you know that you're toxic."
-Toxic(cover), Local H

[Mooncat]

Do you believe in God?
Written on the bullet
Say 'yes' to pull the trigger

Do you believe in God?
Written on the bullet
And Cassie pulled the trigger

All heads are bowed in silence
To remember her last sentence
She answered him knowing what would happen,
Her last words still hanging in the air
- Flyleaf, "Cassie"

But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I
- Leona Lewis, "Bleeding Love"

No matter what you say about love
I keep coming back for more
Keep my hand in the fire
Sooner or later, I'll get what I'm asking for

No matter what you say about life
I learn every time I bleed
That truth is a stranger
Soul is in danger, I gotta let my spirit be free

To admit that I'm wrong
And then change my mind
Sorry but I have to move on
And leave you behind
- Jordin Sparks, "Tattoo"

[Naria]

There was a time when I'd never think like this
The solid silver of your eyes and in your kiss
Not that you're cold but that you're worth your weight in gold
To me
I've got this perfect place I'd really like to show you
A chair, a table in the sun beside a river
I can't remember where it was but if I saw it
I'd know it
I get so wound up I hope you can tell the difference
Between the worn out part of me that cares for you
And don't mistake my puzzled look at you for anger
Don't react
On a down beat we can share commiserations
Fall away drunk from the judgement of our friends
Brace ourselves before the fall we take together
Once again

For the tragic event that happened just a few miles from me today...

From underneath the trees, we watch the sky
Confusing stars for satellites
I never dreamed that you'd be mine
But here we are, we're here tonight

Singing amen I, I'm alive(i'm alive)
Singing a-amen I, I'm alive

If everyone cared and nobody cried,
If everyone loved and nobody lied,
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride,
Then we'd see the day, when nobody died

And I'm singing

a-amen I,amen, I, I'm alive
amen I amen I, amen I, I'm alive

And in the air the fireflies
Our only light in paradise
We'll show the world they were wrong
And teach them all to sing along

Singing amen I, I'm alive (I'm alive)
Singing a-amen I, I'm alive

If everyone cared and nobody cried,
If everyone loved and nobody lied,
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride,
Then we'd see the day, when nobody died
If everyone cared and nobody cried,

If everyone loved and nobody lied,
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride,
Then we'd see the day, when nobody died
If everyone cared and nobody cried,

And as we lie beneath the stars,
We realize how small we are,
If they could love like you and me,
Imagine what the world could be

If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied,
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride,
Then we'd see the day, when nobody died

If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied,
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride,
Then we'd see the day, when nobody died

We'd see the day, we'd see the day
When nobody died
We'd see the day, we'd see the day
When nobody died
We'd see the day
when nobody died....

"Once, once
I knew where to look for you
Once, once
But that was before
Once, once
I would've laid down and died for you
Once, once
But not anymore"
- "Once" Glen Hansard & Markéta Irglová

"I could've been a mathematician
Studied rockets for a livin'
Would've worked out better in the end
But to get more specific
I'd break every law of physics
To bring you back to me again"
- "Stuck To You (Science Song)" Josh Ritter

"Baby you're the words and chapters
The sweetness in the morning after
You are the cry that turns to laughter
You're the hope that ends disaster"
- "Warmer Climate" Snow Patrol

"Can I call you my friend
Cause it's been so long since we've talked
And I miss you
Don't worry I'm over you right now
So my feelings won't get in the way of it
Oh, I miss the way we talked about the little things"
- "Your Sweet Voice" The Reindeer Section

"Blackened"-Metallica

Blackened is the end
Winter it will send
Throwing all you see
Into obscurity

Death of Mother Earth
Never a rebirth
Evolution's end
Never will it mend

Never

Fire
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Blackened is the end
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Color our world blackened

Blistering of earth
Terminate its worth
Deadly nicotine
Kills what might've been

Callous, frigid chill
Nothing left to kill
Never seen before
Breathing nevermore

Never

Fire
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Blackened is the end
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Color our world blackened

Blackened
Opposition, contradiction, premonition, compromise
Agitation, violation, mutilation, planet dies
Darkest color
Blistered earth
True death of life

Termination, expiration, cancellation, human race
Expectation, liberation, population laid to waste
See our mother
Put to death
See our mother die

Smoldering decay
Take her breath away
Millions of our years
In minutes disappears

Darkening in vain
Decadence remains
All is said and done
Never is the sun

Never

Fire
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Blackened is the end
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Fire
Is the outcome of hypocrisy
Darkest potency
In the exit of humanity
Color our world blackened

Blackened

[Mooncat]

He was my best friend, I tried to help him,
But he traded everything, for suffering,
And found himself alone.
I watched the lying, turn into hiding,
With scars on both his lips, his fingertips...
Were melted to the bone.

But I can still remember what his face looked like,
When I found him in an alley in the middle of the night.
Tell me what you know! Tell me what you gone and done now!
Tell me what you know! Tell me what you gone and done now!
A gun'd do the trick, get it over with,
You're better off...
To take all you've got and burn it on the spot,
To get high-igh, igh, igh (high-igh, igh, igh).

Three days no sleeping, he gave up eating,
He sold his mother's rings, she said nothing,
And pretended not to know...
He started stealing, to supply the feeling,
Found out he pulled a knife, on someone's wife...
And held it to her throat.

But I can still remember what his face looked like,
When I found him in an alley in the middle of the night.
Tell me what you know! Tell me what you gone and done now!
Tell me what you know! Tell me what you gone and done now!
a gun'd do the trick, get it over with,
You're better off...
To take all that you've got and burn it on the spot,
Just to get high-igh, igh, igh (high-igh, igh, igh).
Tell me what did, where you gone and hid?
Show me...!
What you really want, was it what you got?
Slowly...!
Circle in the drain, throw it all away,
Just to get high-igh, igh, igh (high-igh, igh, igh).
High-igh, igh...oooooh!

(High-igh-igh-igh, high-igh-igh-igh)
Hiiigh
(High-igh-igh-igh, high-igh-igh-igh)
Hiiigh

Tell me what you know! Tell me what you gone and done now!
Tell me what you know! Tell me what you gone and done now!
A gun'd do the trick, get it over with,
You're better off...
To take all that you've got and burn it on the spot,
Just to get high-igh, igh, igh (high-igh, igh, igh).
Tell me what did, where you gone and hid?
Show me...!
What you really want, was it what you got?
Slowly...!
Circle in the drain, throw it all away,
Just to get high-igh, igh, igh, igh
Just to get high-igh, igh, igh, igh
Circle in the drain, throw it all away,
Just to get high-igh, igh, igh, igh.

"Sweet Jane"
Lou Reed
Velvet Underground
Standing on the corner, suitcase in my hand,
Jack is in his corset, and Jane is in her vest, and, me,
I'm in a rock'n'roll band. Huh!
Ridin' in a Stutz-Bearcat, Jim
Y'know, those were different times!
Oh, all the poet, they studied rules of verse,
And the ladies, they rolled their eyes.
Sweet Jane! Whoa! Sweet Jane, oh-oh-a! Sweet Jane!
I'll tell you something,
Jack, he is a banker,
And Jane, she is a clerk.
Both of them save their monies, ha,
And when, when they come home from work!
Ooh! Sittin' down by the fire, oh!
The radio does play,
The classical music there, Jim.
"The March of the Wooden Soldiers".
All you protest kids.
You can hear Jack say, get ready, ah,
Sweet Jane! Come on baby! Sweet Jane! Oh-oh-a! Sweet Jane!
Some people, they like to go out dancing,
And other peoples, they have to work. Just watch me now!
And there's even some evil mothers,
Well they're gonna tell you that everything is just dirt.
Y'know that, women, never really faint,
And that villains always blink their eyes, woo!
And that, y'know, children are the only ones who blush!
And that, life is, just to die!
And, everyone who ever had a heart, oh,
That wouldn't turn around and break it.
And anyone who ever played a part, whoa,
And wouldn't turn around and hate it!
Sweet Jane! Whoa-oh-oh! Sweet Jane! Sweet Jane. Sweet Jane.
Sweet Jane. Sweet Jane.

"Another night in any town
You can hear the thunder of their cry
Ahead of their time
They wonder why

In the shadows of a golden age
A generation waits for dawn
Brave carry on
Bold and the strong


Only the young can say
They're free to fly away
Sharing the same desires
Burning like wildfires

Let's hear it to the promises
And all the lies they dare to tell
Is it heaven of hell?
They know very well

Only the young can say
They're free to fly away
Sharing the same desires
Burning like wildfires

Only the young can say
They're free to fly away
Sharing the same desires
Burning like wildfires

Only the young can say
Only the young can say
(Young can say)

Only the young can say
Only the young can say
(Young can say)

Only the young can say"

     -Journey, "Only the Young"

[Mooncat]

Now,I can take this
Everything I know
Realized that I'm nothing I wanted to be
I can never change
Anything I've done
Because it's the only thing I have left

Blame myself again
For what I didn't do
Never really knew it was coming from me
Change the way I felt
The worst is yet to come
Because I have gone too far now

Nobody,Nobody,Nobody,Nobody
Change my mind
And it leads me to a new disease

Somebody,Somebody,Somebody,Somebody
Let it die
But it still becomes a new disease

Today

Is this all worth what
This has done to me
Water down my senses and turn them on me
fuck morality
And everything I know
If I didn't hate this then I couldn't go
Impersonate myself for what I used to be
Denial is all that's left now

Nobody,Nobody,Nobody,Nobody
Change my mind
And it leads you to a new disease

Somebody,Somebody,Somebody,Somebody
Let it die
But it still becomes a new disease

Nobody,Nobody,Nobody,Nobody
Change my mind
And it leads me to a new disease

Somebody,Somebody,Somebody,Somebody
Let it die
But it still becomes a new disease

Dreaming in my head
I'm suffering instead
I can't remember why this meant so much to me

No! Did I ever want it?
And I coulda been
And I woulda been

No! Did I ever want it?
And I coulda been
And I woulda been

Conceiving in my head
I'm suffering instead
I can't remember why
This meant so much to me

Nobody,Nobody,Nobody,Nobody
Change my mind
And it leads you to a new disease

Somebody,Somebody,Somebody,Somebody
Let it die
But it still becomes a new disease

Nobody,Nobody,Nobody,Nobody
Change my mind
And it leads you to a new disease

Somebody,Somebody,Somebody,Somebody
Let it die
But it still becomes a new disease

Concrete angel - by Martina McBride

She walks to school with a lunch she packed
Nobody knows what she's holding back;
Wearing the same dress she wore yesterday,
She hides the bruises with the linen and lace;
oh

The teacher wonders but she doesn't ask,
It's hard to see the pain behind the mask;
Bearing the burdon of a secret storm,
Sometimes she wishes she was never born;

Through the wind and the rain,
She stands hard as a stone in a world that she can't rise above;
But her dreams give her wings and she flies to a place where she's loved.

Concrete Angel

Somebody cries in the middle of the night,
The neighbors hear but they turn out the lights;
A fragile soul caught in the hands of fate,
When morning comes it will be too late.

Through the wind and the rain,
She stands hard as a stone in a world that she can't rise above;
But her dreams give her wings and she flies to a place where she's loved.

Concrete Angel

A statue stands in a shaded place,
An angel girl with an upturned face;
Her name is written on a polished rock,
A broken heart that the world forgot.

Through the wind and the rain,
She stands hard as a stone in a world that she can't rise above;
But her dreams give her wings and she flies to a place where she's loved.

Concrete Angel


(It's such a sad song. I cried the first ten times I heard it, I think... The music video is here)

[Mooncat]

Concrete Angel is indeed a sad song, I still cry when I hear it.  And the video is even sadder.

Emilie Autumn - "Rose Red"

Rose Rose Rose Red
Will I ever see thee wed
I wil marry at thy will sire
At thy will

A thousand years gone by
Too late to wonder why
I'm here alone
If in my darkest hour
She rose that fell a flower
I should have known

Rose Rose Rose Red
Will I ever see thee wed
Only if you can capture me

Tell me no more stories
And I'll tell you no lies
No one wants to hurt me
But everybody tries
And if you think that I've been waiting
For my planets to align
It's Time you go on
Get your things, get up, get out
I'n doing fine, yeah yeah

Someday these walls will speak
The floors beneath you creek
To call my name
Here in my web of dreams
My whispers turn to screams
And place the blame

Rose Rose Rose Red
Will I ever see thee wed
Only if you discover me

Tell me no more stories
And I'll tell you no lies
No one wants to hurt me
But everybody tries
And if you think that I've been waiting
For my planets to align
It's Time you go on
Get your things, get up, get out
I'n doing fine, yeah yeah

For this freedom
I have given all I had
For this darkness
I gave my light
For this wisdom
I have lost my innocence
Take my petals
And cover me with the night

Tell me no more stories
And I'll tell you no lies
No one wants to hurt me
But everybody tries
And if you think that I've been waiting
For my planets to align
It's Time you go on
Get your things, get up, get out
I'n doing fine, yeah yeah

Dave Matthews Band "Grace is Gone"

Neon shines through smoky eyes, tonight
It's 2 AM I'm drunk again
It's heavy on my mind

I could never love again, so much as I love you
Where you end, where I begin, is like a river flowing through

Take my eyes, take my heart, I need them no more
If never again they'll fall upon the one I so adore

Excuse me please, one more drink
Could you make it strong cause I don't need to think
She broke my heart
My grace is gone
One more drink and I'll move on

One drink to remember, and another to forget
How could I ever dream to find a love like this again
One drink to remember, and another to forget

Excuse me please, one more drink
Could you make it strong cause I don't need to think
She broke my heart
My grace is gone
One more drink and I'll move on
One more drink and I'll be gone

You think of things impossible
Then the sun refuse to shine
I woke with you beside me
Your cold hand lay in mine

Excuse me please, one more drink
Could you make it strong cause I don't need to think
She broke my heart
My grace is gone
One more drink and I'll go

Excuse me please, one more drink
Could you make it strong cause I don't need to think
She broke my heart
My grace is gone
One more drink and I'll move on
One more drink and I'll be gone
One more drink, my grace is gone

[Mooncat]

For my NOW ex-boyfriend.

I'm drunk and I'm feeling down
And I just wanna be alone
You shouldn't ever come around
Why don't you just go home?
Cause you're drowning in the water
And I tried to grab your hand
I left my heart open
But you didn't understand
But you didn't understand
Go fix yourself
-Papa Roach, "Scars"

I lit my pain on fire
and I watched it all burn down
and now I'm dancing in the ashes
and there's no one else around
Because I wanna be a part of something
This is just a story of a broken soul...
...
Does anyone around me feel the same?
Just put your fist up and vent your pain
-Papa Roach, "Take Me"
