The First Of Me" - Hoobastank

I must make a choice

A tough decision

Listen to my voice

Should I give in

To temptation, admiration

One leads to myself

The other some one else

Just an empty shell

Just an empty shell

It's harder than it seems

When you're told that

All your hopes and dreams

Are yours to hold if

You just give them

What's expected

Something they can sell

Put upon a shelf

That I am not for sell

I am not for sell

[Chorus:]

I here a voice inside

It's crowning to a scream

I'm not the next of them

I am the first of me

'cause I can live the lie

I am just what you see

I'm not the next of them

I am the first of me

If I can't refuse

The price they offer

I am sure to lose

And I will suffer

Sell my soul to make a profit

All I have to do

Is make believe it's true

That something I can't do

That something I can't do

[Chorus]

So when the waiting's gone

This time to face the truth

You know your good enough

Deep down inside of you

You're finally woken up

If only just to prove

You are born to lead the way

Then be the first of you

Numb - Linkin Park

I'm tired of being what you want me to be

Feeling so faithless lost under the surface

Don't know what you're expecting of me

Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes

(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)

Every step that I take is another mistake to you

(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)

I've become so numb I can't feel you there

Become so tired so much more aware

I'm becoming this all I want to do

Is be more like me and be less like you

Can't you see that you're smothering me

Holding too tightly afraid to lose control

Cause everything that you thought I would be

Has fallen apart right in front of you

(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)

Every step that I take is another mistake to you

(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)

And every second I waste is more than I can take

I've become so numb I can't feel you there

Become so tired so much more aware

I'm becoming this all I want to do

Is be more like me and be less like you

And I know

I may end up failing too

But I know

You were just like me with someone disappointed in you

I've become so numb I can't feel you there

Become so tired so much more aware

I'm becoming this all I want to do

Is be more like me and be less like you

I've become so numb I can't feel you there

I'm tired of being what you want me to be

I've become so numb I can't feel you there

I'm tired of being what you want me to be

My Immortal - Evanesence

I'm so tired of being here

Suppressed by all my childish fears

And if you have to leave

I wish that you would just leave

'Cause your presence still lingers here

And it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal

This pain is just too real

There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears

When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears

And I held your hand through all of these years

But you still have

All of me

You used to captivate me

By your resonating life

Now I'm bound by the life you've left behind

Your face it haunts

My once pleasant dreams

Your voice it chased away

All the sanity in me

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone

But though you're still with me

I've been alone all along

Probably not the best song to listen to when I'm not feeling my happiest.

The Streets - Never Went To Church

Two great European narcotics,

Alcohol and Christianity,

I know which one I prefer

We never went to church,

Just get on with work and sometimes things'll hurt,

But it's hit me since you left us,

And it's so hard not to search.

If you were still about,

I'd ask you what I'm supposed to do now,

I just get a bit scared,

Every now,

Hope I made you proud.

On your birthday when mom passed the forks and spoons,

I put my head on the table I was so distraught with you,

You tidied your things into the bin,

The more poorly you grew,

So there's nothing of yours to hold or to talk to.

You put your hand up and interrupt the conversation with a, but..

People say I interrupt people with the same look.

Sometimes I think so hard I can't remember how your face looked,

Started reading about dreams in your favourite book.

I panic and pace when I can't see the right thing to do.

You'd be scratching your head through the best advice you knew.

And I feel sad I can't hear you reciting it through,

I miss you dad, but I've got nothing to remind me of you

We never went to church,

Just get on with work and sometimes things'll hurt,

But it's hit me since you left us,

And it's so hard not to search.

If you were still about,

I'd ask you what I'm supposed to do now,

I just get a bit scared,

Every now,

Hope I made you proud.

I needed a break when your book about dreams was taken,

I needed to pray or see a priest that day,

I needed to leave this trade and just heave it away.

But I cleaned up my place like you so I could see things straight.

I never cared about God when life was sailin' in the calm,

So I said I'd get my head down and I'd deal with the ache in my heart,

And for that if God exists I'd reckon he'd pay me regard,

Mom says me and you are the same from the start.

I guess than you did leave me something to remind me of you,

Everytime I interrupt someone like you used to,

When I do something like you you'll be on my mind or through,

'Cause I forgot you left me behind to remind me of you.

We never went to church,

Just get on with work and sometimes things'll hurt,

But it's hit me since you left us,

And it's so hard not to search.

If you were still about,

I'd ask you what I'm supposed to do now,

I just get a bit scared,

Every now,

Hope I made you proud.

We never went to church,

Just get on with work and sometimes things'll hurt,

But it's hit me since you left us,

And it's so hard not to search.

If you were still about,

I'd ask you what I'm supposed to do now,

I just get a bit scared,

Every now,

Hope I made you proud.

But you you still tell me how you didn't know what to do even now,

And then I'm not so scared somehow,

'Cause I know that you'd be proud.

I got a good one for you dad,

I'm gonna see a priest, a Rabbi and a Protestant clergyman,

You always said I should hedge my bets.
