And right here
Right now
All the way in Battery City
The little children
Raise their open filthy palms
Like tiny daggers up to heaven
And all the juvee halls
And the Ritalin rats
Ask the angels made from neon
and ****ing garbage scream out "What will save us?"
And the sky opened up

Everybody wants to change the world
Everybody wants to change the world
But no one,
No one wants to die...MCR

long haired redneck
By David Allan Coe

Country deejays knows that I'm an outlaw. They'd never come to see me in this dive
Where bikers stare at cowboys who are laughing at the hippies
Who are praying they'll get outta here alive

The loud mouth in the corner's gettin' to me
Talking 'bout my earrings and my hair
I guess he ain't read the signs that say I been to prison
Someone ought to warn him 'fore I knock him off his chair

'Cause my long hair just can't cover up my red neck
I've won every fight, I've ever fought (almost)
Hey, I don't need some turkey telling me that I ain't country
And sayin' I ain't worth the damned ol' ticket that he bought

'Cause I can sing all them songs about Texas
And I still do all the sad ones that I know
They tell me, I look like Merle Haggard
And sound a lot like David Allen Coe

And the bar maid in the last town that we played in
Knew the words to every song I'd wrote
She said, Jimmy Rabbit turned her on to my last album
Just about the time the jukebox broke

Yeah, Johny Cash helped me get out of prison
Long before Rodriguez stole that goat
I've been the Rhinestone Cowboy for so long, I can't remember
And I can do you every song, Hank Williams ever wrote

But the country deejays, all think I'm an outlaw
And they'd never come to see me in this dive
Where bikers stare at cowboys who are laughing at the hippies
Who are praying they'll get out of here alive

The loud mouth in the corner's gettin' to me
Talking 'bout my earrings and my Hair...

I am an old metalhead and my musical taste is stuck in the 80s and 90s. I hope not to offend anyone with my selection, but this is my favorite song of all time.

Territory
by Sepultura

Unknown man
Speaks to the world
Sucking your trust
A trap in every world

War for territory
War for territory

Choice control
Behind propaganda
Poor information
To manage your anger

War for territory
War for territory

Dictators' speech
Blasting off your life
Rule to kill the urge
Dumb a##holes' speech

Years of fighting
Teaching my son
To believe in that man
Racist human being
Racist ground will live
Shame and regret
Of the pride
You've once possessed

War for territory
War for territory

Always On Your Side - Sheryl Crow feat. Sting


My yesterdays are all boxed up and neatly put away
But every now and then you come to mind
Cause you were always waiting to be picked to play the game
But when your name was called, you found a place to hide
When you knew that I was always on your side

Well everything was easy then, so sweet and innocent
My demons and my angels reappear
Leavin' only traces of the man you thought I'd be
Too afraid to hear the words I always feared
Leavin' you with only questions all these years

But is there someplace far away, someplace where all is clear
Easy to start over with the ones you hold so dear
Or are you left to wonder, all alone, eternally
This isn't how it's really meant to be
No it isn't how it's really meant to be

Well they say that love is in the air, never is it clear,
How to pull it close and make it stay
Butterflies are free to fly, and so they fly away
And I'm left to carry on and wonder why
Even through it all, I'm always on your side

But is there someplace far away, someplace where all is clear
Easy to start over with the ones you hold so dear
Or are you left to wonder, all alone, eternally
This isn't how it's really meant to be
No it isn't how it's really meant to be

Well they say that love is in the air, never is it clear
How to pull it close and make it stay
Butterflies are free to fly, why do they fly away
Leavin' me to carry on and wonder why
Was it you that kept me wondering through this life
When you know that I was always on your side

"Help Me Disappear"

So help me disappear
Or to believe in a change
No way out of here
That I can see...
Or the nightmares that burn
Into my head at night
Make them disappear
So I can breathe...

~Katatonia

"Solitary Shell"

As a boy he was considered somewhat odd
Kept to himself most of the time
He would daydream in and out of his own world
but in every other way he was fine

He's a Monday morning lunatic
Disturbed from time to time
Lost within himself
In his solitary shell

A temporary catatonic
Madman on occasion
When will he break out
Of his solitary shell

He struggled to get through his day
He was helplessly behind
He poured himself onto the page
Writing for hours at a time

As a man he was a danger to himself
Fearful and sad most of the time
He was drifting in and out of sanity
But in every other way he was fine

~Dream Theater

"Wither"

Like reflections on the page
The world's what you create

I drown in hesitation
My words come crashing down
And all my best creations
Burn into the ground
The thought of starting over
Leaves me paralyzed

Tear it out again
Another one that got away

~Dream Theater

"Every Rose Has its Thorn"

Though it's been a while now
I can still feel so much pain
Like a knife that cuts you the wound heals
but the scar, that scar remains

I know I could have saved a love that night
If I'd known what to say
Instead of makin' love
We both made our separate ways
But now I hear you found somebody new
and that I never meant that much to you
To hear that tears me up inside
And to see you cuts me like a knife

~Poison

When I was young, I was the nicest guy I knew.
I thought I was the chosen one.
But time went by and I found out a thing or two.
My shine wore off as time wore on.
I thought that I was living out the perfect life.
But in the lonely hours when the truth begins to bite.
I thought about the times when I turned my back and stalled.

I ain't no nice guy after all.

When I was young, I was the only game in town.
I thought I had it down for sure.
But time went by and I was lost in what I found.
The reasons blurred, the way unsure.
I thought that I was living life the only way.
But as I saw that life was more than day to day.
I turned around, I read the writing on the wall.

I ain't no nice guy after all.
I ain't no nice guy after all.

In all the years you spend between your birth and death.
You find there's lots of times you should have saved your breath.
It comes as quite a shock when that trip leads to fall.

I ain't no nice guy after all.
I ain't no nice guy after all.

When I was young, I was the nicest guy I knew.
I thought I was the chosen one.
But time went by and I found out a thing or two.
My shine wore off as time wore on.
I thought that I was living out the perfect life.
But in the lonely hours when the truth begins to bite.
I turned around, I read the writing on the wall.

I ain't no nice guy after all.

Jokke med Tourettes - Verdiløse Menn (Jokke with Tourettes - Worthless Men.)
(Translation from Google Translate and a bit editing from myself, so it's probably a little bit incorrect).

Today I was going to sing a song
about worthless men
As you probably have guessed already so
I'm one of them

Can all those who feel successful
please go home
This is a private little party
for us worthless men

ref:
Will never go to heaven
Will never hell
we remain in purgatory
we are too boring
we are
Worthless Men
Worthless Men

We are all too normal
small global
unorginal

When we start to talk
people start to yawn
gaze begins to wander

And we accept it
we submit the towel
offers to pay

everyone accepts
the least I could do
everyone forgets to thank

But this is a song for all of us
worthless men
a song for those who are always dumped
and ribbed and left alone (and left heartbroken, and left alone, or something like that).

We are never initiated into the gang Initiates
they smell us from a distance
we are worthless men

Worthless Men

 

[EndSerenading]

wyverary I love "Clam, Crab, Cockle Cowrie" it makes me really emotional every time I hear it

"This Loneliness Won't Be The Death Of Me" by Being As An Ocean

I swear this isn’t the end
But I still feel so alone
Even when I’m surrounded by my best friends
Word’s can’t penetrate
A tree in the wind
I bend
Falling faster into the depths
I’m falling, I’m falling
Under such depression, I can barely even catch my breath
Words can’t mend and love does not sink in
Why can’t I see Your face?

Clawing at my chest
Looking for some sort of reprieve
I swear this isn’t the end
But when will I feel comfortable in my own skin?

Knowing fundamental truth
Doesn’t seem to matter
After such tremendous abuse
Cause I’ve worked this ground since my youth
And still, the land has yet to bare any sort of fruit
I’ll continue to toil and plow
Hoping one day I’ll make You proud
‘What have a got to show?’
As I wipe the sweat from my brow

So tired, so tired of showing Love so deep
That most aren’t even willing to feel
See what I’ve seen
Open your eyes and recognize that this is real
This season brings darkness so profound
I’ve become lost and can’t seem to be found
Contorted, racked with pain
I know should feel free, yet I continue to sing this sad refrain
I can’t sleep and food has lost its taste
God, I’m so sick of this place


"Clean" by Taylor Swift is another

The drought was the very worst
when the flowers that we'd grown
together, died of thirst.
It was months and month of back and forth
You're still all over me like a wine stained dress
I can't wear anymore
Hung my head as I lost the war, and sky turned black
like a perfect storm.

Rain came pouring down
when I was drowning
that's when I could finally breathe
by morning, gone was any trace of you
I think I am finally clean.

There was nothing left to do
when the butterflies turned to dust
that covered my whole room
so i punched a hole in the roof
I let the flood carry away all my pictures of you
the water filled my lungs, I screamed so loud
but nobody heard a thing
