    Breathe, breathe in the air
    Don't be afraid to care
    Leave, but don't leave me
    Look around
    Choose your own ground

    Long you live and high you fly
    And smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
    And all you touch and all you see
    Is all your life will ever be

    So much confusion
    When autumn comes around
    What to do about October
    How to smile behind a frown?
    It's hard to settle down

    Stop And Stare ~ One Republic

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HtNS1afUOnE

    This town is colder now, I think it's sick of us
    It's time to make our move, I'm shaking off the rust
    I've got my heart set on anywhere but here
    I'm staring down myself, counting up the years
    Steady hands, just take the wheel...
    And every glance is killing me
    Time to make one last appeal... for the life I lead

    Stop and stare
    I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
    Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
    But I've become what I can't be, oh
    Stop and stare
    You start to wonder why you're here not there
    And you'd give anything to get what's fair
    But fair ain't what you really need
    Oh, can you see what I see

    They're trying to come back, all my senses push
    Untie the weight bags, I never thought I could...
    Steady feet, don't fail me now
    Gonna run till you can't walk
    Something pulls my focus out
    And I'm standing down...

    Stop and stare
    I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
    Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
    But I've become what I can't be, oh
    Stop and stare
    You start to wonder why you're here not there
    And you'd give anything to get what's fair
    But fair ain't what you really need
    Oh, you don't need

    What you need, what you need...

    Stop and stare
    I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
    Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
    But I've become what I can't be
    Oh, do you see what I see...

    I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
    I looked to the children, I drank from the fountain
    There's more than one answer to these questions
    Pointing me in crooked line
    The less I seek my source for some definitive
    The closer I am to fine.

    If I ventured in the slipstream
    Between the viaducts of your dream
    Where immobile steel rims crack
    And the ditch in the back roads stop
    Could you find me?
    Would you kiss my eyes?
    To lay me down
    In silence easy
    To be born again
    To be born again
    From the far side of the ocean
    If I put the wheels in motion
    And I stand with my arms behind me
    And I'm pushin' on the door
    Could you find me?
    Would you kiss my eyes?
    To lay me down
    In silence easy
    To be born again
    To be born again

    Orange Sky ~ Alexi Murdoch

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Uz8uRWoC0I

    Well I had a dream
    I stood beneath an orange sky
    Yes I had a dream
    I stood beneath an orange sky
    With my brother standing by
    With my brother standing by
    I said brother, you know you know
    It's a long road we've been walking on
    Yes it is, yes it is, you know
    Brother it is,
    Such a long road we've been walking on
    Oh brother, oh brother

    And I had a dream
    I stood beneath an orange sky
    With my sister standing by
    With my sister standing by
    Said here is what I know now sister
    Here is what I know now
    Goes like this...
    In your love, my salvation lies
    In your love, my salvation lies
    In your love, my salvation lies
    In your love, in your love, in your love
    Oh but you know I am so weary
    And you know my heart,
    My hearts been broken now
    Sometimes, sometimes
    My mind is too strong to carry on
    Too strong, too strong to carry on

    But when I'm alone
    When I've thrown off the weight of this crazy stone
    When I've lost all care for the things I own
    That's when I miss you, that's when I miss you
    You are my home
    You are my home now
    Here is what I know now brother
    Here is what I know now sister
    Goes like this...
    In your love, my salvation lies
    In your love, my salvation lies
    In your love, my salvation lies
    In your love, my salvation lies
    In your love, my salvation lies
    In your love, my salvation lies
    In your love, my salvation lies
    In your love, in your love, in your love

    Well I had a dream
    I stood beneath an orange sky
    With my brother and my sister standing by
    With my brother and my sister standing by now
    With my brother and my sister standing

    All the locals hide their tears of regret
    Open fire 'cause I love you to death
    Sky high with a heartache of stone
    You'll never see me 'cause I'm always alone

    I'm in love without a trace of dissent
    I'll buy the torture 'cause you pay for the rent
    Tied high with a broken command
    You're all alone in the promised land

    I'm in love with this malicious intent
    You've been taken but you don't know it yet
    What you will know must never live to be found
    'Cause it's a subject in the eyes of the clown

    What we are looking at
    Is good and evil, right and wrong
    A new world order

    A new world order
    A new world order
    A new world order
    We're not about to make that same mistakes right

    A new world order
    A new world order
    A new world

    The Kiss lyrics
    Kiss me kiss me kiss me
    Your tongue is like poison
    So swollen it fills up my mouth

    Love me love me love me
    You nail me to the floor
    And push my guts all inside out

    Get it out get it out get it out
    Get your fucking voice
    Out of my head

    I never wanted this
    I never wanted any of this
    I wish you were dead
    I wish you were dead

    I never wanted any of this
    I wish you were dead
    Dead
    Dead
    Dead

    You don't have to be beautiful
    To turn me on
    I just need your body baby
    From dusk till dawn
    You don't need experience
    To turn me out
    You just leave it all up to me
    I'm gonna show you what it's all about

    You don't have to be rich
    To be my girl
    You don't have to be cool
    To rule my world
    Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with
    I just want your extra time and your

    Kiss

    Shine sweet freedom
    Shine your light on me
    You are the magic
    You're right where I wanna be
    Oh sweet freedom carry me along
    We'll keep the spirit alive on and on

    Well you're dirty and sweet, clad in black
    Don't look back and I love you
    You're dirty and sweet, oh yeah
    Well you're slim and you're weak
    You've got the teeth of a hydra upon you
    You're dirty sweet and you're my girl.

    She shuts out the night
    Tries to close her eyes
    If she can find daylight
    She'll be alright
    She'll be alright
    Just not tonight

    And she says oh
    I can't take no more
    Her tears like diamonds on the floor
    And her diamonds bring me down
    Cause I can't help her now
    She's down in it
    She tried her best but now she can't win it
    Hard to see them on the ground
    Her diamonds falling down

    Her Diamonds, Rob Thomas. Great song for those of us who love someone who's ill.

    I'm on a bus on a psychedelic trip
    Reading murder books tryin' to stay hip.
    I'm thinkin' of you you're out there so
    Say your prayers.
    Say your prayers.
    Say your prayers.

    I find you in the morning
    After dreams of distant signs
    You pour yourself over me
    Like the sun through the blinds

    You lift me up and get me out
    Keep me walking but never shout
    "Hold the secret close", I hear you say

    You know the way it goes about
    It takes you in and spits you out
    It spits you out when you desire
    To conquer it, to feel you're higher
