Tennessee-Arrested Development Lord I've really been real stressed Down and out, losin ground Although I am black and proud Problems got me pessimistic Brothers and sisters keep messin up Why does it have to be so damn tuff? I don't know where I can go To let these ghosts out of my skull My grandmas past, my brothers gone I never at once felt so alone I know you're supposed to be my steering wheel Not just my spare tire (home) But lord I ask you (home) To be my guiding force and truth (home) For some strange reason it had to be (home) He guided me to Tennessee (home) (Chorus) Take me to another place Take me to another land Make me forget all that hurts me Let me understand your plan Lord it's obvious we got a relationship Talkin to each other every night and day Although you're superior over me We talk to each other in a friendship way Then outta nowhere you tell me to break Outta the country and into more country Past Dyesburg into Ripley Where the ghost of childhood haunts me Walk the roads my forefathers walked Climbed the trees my forefathers hung from Ask those trees for all their wisdom They tell me my ears are so young (home) Go back to from whence you came (home) My family tree my family name (home) For some strange reason it had to be (home) He guided me to Tennessee (home) Chorus Now I see the importance of history Why people be in the mess that they be Many journeys to freedom made in vain By brothers on the corner playin ghetto games I ask you lord why you enlightened me Without the enlightment of all my folks He said cuz I set myself on a quest for truth And he was there to quench my thirst But I am still thirsty... The lord allowed me to drink some more He said what I am searchin for are The answers to all which are in front of me The ultimate truth started to get blurry For some strange reason it had to be It was all a dream about Tennessee Chorus

Where the ghost of childhood haunts me Precious Things -- Tori Amos So I ran faster But it caught me here Yes my loyalties turned Like my ankle In the seventh grade Running after Billy Running after the rain These precious things Let them bleed Let them wash away These precious things Let them break their hold over me He said youre really an ugly girl But I like the way you play And I died But I thanked him Can you believe that Sick sick Holding on to his picture Dressing up every day I wanna smash the faces Of those beautiful boys Those christian boys So you can make me cum That doesnt make you Jesus These precious things Let them bleed Let them wash away These precious things Let them break their hold over me I remember Yes in my peach party dress No one dared No one cared To tell me where the pretty girls are Those demigods With their nine-inch nails and little fascist panties tucked inside the heart of every nice girl These precious things Let them bleed Let them wash away These precious things Let them break Let them wash away These these precious things Let them bleed now Let them wash away These these precious things Let them break their hold over me Precious ... Precious ...

I wanna play too! Only - Nine Inch Nails I'm becoming less defined as days go by Fading away And well you might say I'm losing focus Kinda drifting into the abstract in terms of how I see myself Sometimes I think I can see right through myself Sometimes I can see right through myself Less concerned about fitting into the world Your world that is Cause it doesn't really matter anymore (no it doesn't really matter anymore) No it doesn't really matter anymore None of this really matters anymore Yes I am alone but then again I always was As far back as I can tell I think maybe it's because Because you were never really real to begin with I just made you up to hurt myself I just made you up to hurt myself, yeah And I just made you up to hurt myself And it worked. Yes it did! There is no you There is only me There is no you There is only me There is no f*cking you There is only me There is no f*cking you There is only me Only [x4] Well the tiniest little dot caught my eye and it turned out to be a scab And I had this funny feeling like I just knew it's something bad I just couldn't leave it alone, I kept picking at the scab It was a doorway trying to seal itself shut But I climbed through Now I am somewhere I am not supposed to be, and I can see things I know I really shouldn't see And now I know why, now, now, now I know why Things aren't as pretty On the inside

The Ghost Song ~ The Doors Awake. Shake dreams from your hair my pretty child, my sweet one. Choose the day and choose the sign of your day the day's divinity First thing you see. A vast radiant beach and cooled jeweled moon Couples naked race down by it's quiet side And we laugh like soft, mad children Smug in the wooly cotton brains of infancy The music and voices are all around us. Choose they croon the Ancient Ones the time has come again choose now, they croon beneath the moon beside an ancient lake Enter again the sweet forest Enter the hot dream Come with us everything is broken up and dances. Indians scattered, On dawn's highway bleeding Ghosts crowd the young child’s, Fragile eggshell mind We have assembled inside, This ancient and insane theater To propagate our lust for life, And flee the swarming wisdom of the streets. The barns have stormed The windows kept, And only one of all the rest To dance and save us From the divine mockery of words, Music inflames temperament. Ooh great creator of being Grant us one more hour, To perform our art And perfect our lives. We need great golden copulations, When the true kings murderers Are allowed to roam free, A thousand magicians arise in the land Where are the feast we are promised? One more thing Thank you oh lord For the white blind light Thank you oh lord For the white blind light A city rises from the sea I had a splitting headache From which the future's made

The Windows Kept
The House We Live In~~The Stills
In your eyes I see mine In your fate And in time And with love You can't leave behind And with hope To find this home of mine
Dear sara The house we live in Is all I know The house we live in Is all I know
Without spite Without scorn Here we lay With open sores To the living room With the crooked floor Push the window Shut that leaning door
Dear Sara Dear Sara
The house we live in Is all I know The house we live in Is all I know

What Sarah Said- Deathcab for Cutie
And it came to me then that every plan Is a tiny prayer to father time As I stared at my shoes in the ICU That reeked of piss and 409 And I rationed my breaths as I said to myself That I’ve already taken too much today As each descending peak on the LCD Took you a little farther away from me Away from me
Amongst the vending machines and year-old magazines In a place where we only say goodbye It stung like a violent wind that our memories depend On a faulty camera in our minds And I knew that you were a truth I would rather lose Than to have never lain beside at all And I looked around at all the eyes on the ground As the TV entertained itself
‘Cause there’s no comfort in the waiting room Just nervous pacers bracing for bad news And then the nurse comes ‘round and everyone lift their heads But I’m thinking of what Sarah said That love is watching someone die
So who’s gonna watch you die? So whos gonna watch you die

That love is watching someone die So who’s gonna watch you die? So whos gonna watch you die If You Get There Before I Do- Collin Raye I read a note my Grandma wrote back in 1923 Grandpa kept it in his coat and he showed it once to me. He said " Boy, you might not understand But a long, long time ago Grandma's daddy didn't like me much but I loved your Grandma so... We had this crazy plan to meet And run away together, Get married in the first town we came to and live forever. But nailed to the tree where we were supposed to meet instead I found this letter And this is what it said- If you get there before I do, Don't give up on me I'll meet you when my chores are through, I don't know how long I'll be, but I'm not gonna let you down Darling, wait and see And between now and then 'til I see you again I'll be loving you, Love, me I read those words just hours before my Grandma past away, In the door way of a church Where me and Grandpa stopped to pray. I know I'd never seen him cry in all my 15 years But as he said these words to her His eyes filled up with tears- If you get there before I do Don't give up on me I'll meet you when my chores are through I don't know how long I'll be But I'm not gonna let you down Darling, wait and see And between now and then'til I see you again I'll be loving you, Love, me. Between now and then 'til I see you again I'll be loving you, Love, me

Grandma got Run over by a Reindeer
Grandma got run over by a reindeer Walking home from our house Christmas Eve. You can say there's no such thing as Santa, But as for me an' Grandpa, we believe.
She'd been drinking too much eggnog, And we begged her not to go. But she forgot her medication, And she staggered out the door into the snow.
When we found her Christmas morning, At the scene of the attack She had hoof prints on her forehead, And incriminating Claus marks on her back.
CHORUS
Now we're all so proud of Grandpa, He's been taking this so well. See him in there watching football, Drinking beer and playing cards with cousin Mel.
It's not Christmas without Grandma, All the family's dressed in black. And we just can't help but wonder Should we open up her gifts or send them back? SEND THEM BACK!!!
CHORUS
Now the goose is on the table And the pudding made of fig (ahhhhh!) And the blue and silver candles, That would just have matched the hair in Grandma's wig.
I've warned all my friends and neighbours, Better watch out for yourselves. They should never give a license, To a man who drives a sleigh and plays with elves.
Sing it, Grandpa!
CHORUS

All the family's dressed in black. Dressed in Black - Depeche Mode She's dressed in black again And I'm falling down again Down to the floor again I'm begging for more again But oh what can you do When she's dressed in black My mind wanders endlessly On paths where she's leading me With games that she likes to play And words that she doesn't say Not when we're alone And she's dressed in black As a picture of herself She's a picture of the world A reflection of you A reflection of me And it's all there to see If you only give in To the fire within Dressed in black again Shadows fall onto me And she stands there over me And waits to encompass me I lay here helplessly But oh what can you do When she's dressed in black Dressed in black again

[As a picture of herself A reflection of you A reflection of me I'll be Your Mirror- Velvet Underground I'll be your mirror Reflect what you are, in case you don't know I'll be the wind, the rain and the sunset The light on your door to show that you're home When you think the night has seen your mind That inside you're twisted and unkind Let me stand to show that you are blind Please put down your hands 'Cause I see you I find it hard to believe you don't know The beauty you are But if you don't let me be your eyes A hand in your darkness, so you won't be afraid When you think the night has seen your mind That inside you're twisted and unkind Let me stand to show that you are blind Please put down your hands 'Cause I see you I'll be your mirror (reflect what you are)
