         Come to decide that the things that I tried
Were in my life just to get high on

When I sit alone come get a little known
But I need more than myself this time

Step from the road to the sea to the sky
And I do believe that we rely on

When I lay it on
Come get to play it on
All my life to sacrifice

Hey oh listen what I say oh
I got your
Hey oh now listen what I say oh, oh

When will I know that I really can’t go
To the well once more time to decide on

When it’s killing me
When will I really see
All that I need to look inside

Come to believe that I better not leave
Before I get my chance to ride

When it’s killing me
What do I really need
All that I need to look inside

Hey oh listen what I say oh
Come back and
Hey oh look at what I say oh

The more I see the less I know
The more I like to let it go…hey oh
Wooooaaah

Deep beneath the cover of another perfect wonder
Where it’s so white as snow

Privately divided by a world so undecided
And there’s nowhere to go

In between the cover of another perfect wonder
And it’s so white as snow

Running through the field where all my tracks will
Be concealed and there’s nowhere to go oh!

When to descend to amend for a friend
All the channels that have broken down

Now you bring it up
I’m gonna ring it up
Just to hear you sing it out

Step from the road to the sea to the sky
And I do believe what we rely on

When I lay it on
Come get to play it on
All my life to sacrifice

Hey oh listen what I say oh
I got your
Hey oh listen what I say oh

The more I see the less I know
The more I like to let it go…hey oh
Wooooaaah

Someday

Someday we gonna rise up on that wind you know
Someday we gonna dance with those lions
Someday we gonna break free from these chains and keep on flyin’

They tellin’ me it’s all good just wait
You know you’re gonna be there someday
Sippin’ on Jim Beam ok
Gotta get these things one day
Till then do another line you know
Searching for that other high
Stop or I gotta steal then steal
Kill or I’m gonna be killed
I got a sack in my pocket
Conscious yellin’ drop it
You know we’re gonna lose it someday
And we tryin’ to hold it all together but the devil is too clever so
I’m gonna die you gonna die we gonna die Someday one day I said

Try to lie but it ain’t me Ain’t me
Try to look but I can’t see
Can’t stop right now cause I’m too far and I can’t keep goin’ cause it’s too hard
In the day in the night it’s the same thing
On the field on the block it’s the same game
On the real if you stop then it’s no pain but if you can’t feel pain then it’s no gain
Rearrange and you change and it’s all bad and you try to maintain but you fall back
And you crawl and you slip and you slide down
Wanna make it to the top better start now
So I hold my soul and I die hard
All alone in the night in the graveyard
Someday one day I’m gonna be free and they won’t try to kill me for being me
Hey someday

If you know how this is
Gonna see it’s not that easy
Don’t stop get it till it’s done
From where you are or have begun
I said keep on try a little harder to see everything you need to be
Believe in your dreams
That you see when you’re asleep

Nirvana

Underneath the bridge
The tarp has sprung a leak
And the animals Ive trapped
Have all become my pets
And Im living off of grass
And the drippings from the ceiling
Its okay to eat fish
cause they dont have any feelings

Something in the way,
Something in the way, yeah,

Underneath the bridge
The tarp has sprung a leak
And the animals Ive trapped
Have all become my pets
And Im living off of grass
And the drippings from the ceiling
Its okay to eat fish
cause they don’t have any feelings

Finger Eleven-First Time

I had never thought

We were hanging on

But the fall looks very far

Staring at the ground

What flesh will do to you

Will do to me too

Be free and on your own

It’s not that simple

It’s never that simple

It feels like the first time

That we’d fallen behind

And we faltered too far down

No one could save us

It feels like the first time

And we’re standing about them

And no one can touch us

The worst is over

I could say to you

A bitter word or two

There’s no stopping now

Just get it out in the air

Heard it through the fog

And hurt by it all

I’d take it back today

But it’s out of my hands

Lost in the film again

All the signs were showing

Watching a single frame

When the wind begins

You’re never anywhere

‘Cause you’re caught in my

weather every time

Feels like the first time

We’d fallen behind

No use is the other one to wait

But I can hold on

As sure as I’m strong

Get over the faithful yesterdays

by P.O.D

Last day of the rest of my life
I wish I would’ve known
Cause I didn’t kiss my mama goodbye

I didn’t tell her that I loved her and how much I care
Or thank my pops for all the talks
And all the wisdom he shared

Unaware, I just did what I always do
Everyday, the same routine
Before I skate off to school

But who knew that this day wasn’t like the rest
Instead of taking a test
I took two to the chest

Call me blind, but I didn’t see it coming
Everybody was running
But I couldn’t hear nothing

Except gun blasts, it happened so fast
I don’t really know this kid
Even though I sit by him in class

Maybe this kid was reaching out for love
Or maybe for a moment
He forgot who he was
Or maybe this kid just wanted to be hugged
Whatever it was
I know it’s because

[chorus:]
We are, We are, the youth of the nation

Little Suzy, she was only twelve
She was given the world
With every chance to excel

Hang with the boys and hear the stories they tell
She might act kind of proud
But no respect for herself

She finds love in all the wrong places
The same situations
Just different faces

Changed up her pace since her daddy left her
Too bad he never told her
She deserved much better

Johnny boy always played the fool
He broke all the rules
So you would think he was cool

He was never really one of the guys
No matter how hard he tried
Often thought of suicide

It’s kind of hard when you ain’t got no friends
He put his life to an end
They might remember him then

You cross the line and there’s no turning back
Told the world how he felt
With the sound of a gat

[chorus]

Who’s to blame for the lives that tragedies claim
No matter what you say
It don’t take away the pain

That I feel inside, I’m tired of all the lies
Don’t nobody know why
It’s the blind leading the blind

I guess that’s the way the story goes
Will it ever make sense
Somebody’s got to know

There’s got to be more to life than this
There’s got to be more to everything
I thought exists

[chorus]

by A Perfect Circle

Tilling my own grave to keep me level
Jam another dragon down the hole
Digging to the rhythm and the echo of a solitary siren
One that pushes me along and leaves me so

Desperate and Ravenous
I’m so weak and powerless over you

Someone feed the monkey while I dig in search of China
White as Dracula as I approach the bottom

Desperate and Ravenous
I’m so weak and powerless over you

Little angel go away
Come again some other day
The devil has my ear today
I’ll never hear a word you say
Promised I would find a little solace
And some piece of mind
Whatever just as long as I don’t feel so

Desperate and Ravenous
I’m so weak and powerless
Desperate and Ravenous
I’m so weak and powerless
over you

Weak and Powerless (Acoustic) - A Perfect Circle

Muse-Time Is Running Out

I think I’m drowning
asphyxiated
I wanna break this spell
that you’ve created

you’re something beautiful
a contradiction
I wanna play the game
I want the friction

you will be the death of me
you will be the death of me

bury it
I won’t let you bury it
I won’t let you smother it
I won’t let you murder it

our time is running out
our time is running out
you can’t push it underground
you can’t stop it screaming out

I wanted freedom
bound and restricted
I tried to give you up
but I’m addicted

now that you know I’m trapped sense of elation
you’d never dream of
breaking this fixation

you will squeeze the life out of me

bury it
I won’t let you bury it
I won’t let you smother it
I won’t let you murder it

our time is running out
our time is running out
you can’t push it underground
you can’t stop it screaming out
how did it come to this?
ooooohh

you will suck the life out of me

bury it
I won’t let you bury it
I won’t let you smother it
I won’t let you murder it

our time is running out
our time is running out
you can’t push it underground
you can’t stop it screaming out
How did it come to this?

Time Is Running Out - Muse

In coming days, weeks, months, years as my life converges or diverges to an unknown conclusion-

I pray to Allah to give me the courage and strength to make the right
decisions as I struggle to come to terms of the reality of it all. The
deprivation of conscience and the absence of belief in my own actions have made me numb to the consequences of life. Masquerading behind the empty rhetoric and promises I plod on with my head down wondering when this torturous path will end. Well let us just say I have reached that junction where it leads to ‘a point of no return’……….

i am officially hitched. Felt like i’m dosed or something.I felt ‘peaceful’ and yet somehow i am numb inside……
Loneliness is like a disease, a cancer with no cure insight. Am i meant to be saved? or my soul is just drifting,slipping away as time passes by…… killing me softly.
She has been a ‘constant’ in my life,as everything else around me seem to fall apart.And for that i am grateful …..Thank you and may i have the courage and strength to be ‘that’ person whom you have chosen to share your wonderful life with.

My apologies to my family and friends whom had not been able to witness the holy matrimony; but god willling we will perhaps meet soon to celebrate and rejoice this special occassion.
