Songs that came to mind this morning-and I wish I could listen to
My Chemical Romance-Welcome to the Black Parade
When I was a young boy,
My father took me into the city
To see a marching band.
He said,
"Son when you grow up, will you be the saviour of the broken,
The beaten and the damned?"
He said
"Will you defeat them, your demons, and all the non believers, the plans that they have made?"
Because one day I leave you,
A phantom to lead you in the summer,
To join the black parade."
When I was a young boy,
My father took me into the city
To see a marching band.
He said,
"Son when you grow up, will you be the saviour of the broken,
The beaten and the damned?"
Sometimes I get the feeling she's watching over me.
And other times I feel like I should go. Through it all, the rise and fall, the bodies in the streets.
When you're gone we want you all to know We'll Carry on,
We'll Carry on
Though your dead and gone believe me Your memory will carry on
Carry on
We'll carry on
And in my heart I cant contain it
The anthem wont explain it.
And we will send you reeling from decimated dreams
Your misery and hate will kill us all
So paint it black and take it back
Lets shout it loud and clear
Do you fight it to the end
We hear the call to

To carry on
We'll carry on
Though your dead and gone believe me Your memory will carry on
We'll carry on
And though you're broken and defeated You're weary widow marches on
And on we carry through the fears
Ooh oh ohhhh
Disappointed faces of your peers Ooh oh ohhhh
Take a look at me cause
I could not care at all Do or die
You'll never make me
Cause the world, will never take my heart
You can try, you'll never break me
Want it all,
I'm gonna play this part
Wont explain or say i'm sorry
I'm not ashamed,
I'm gonna show my scar
You're the chair, for all the broken Listen here, because it's only..
I'm just a man,
I'm not a hero
Just a boy, who's meant to sing this song
Just a man,
I'm not a hero
I -- don't -- care
Carry on
We'll carry on
Though your dead and gone believe me Your memory will carry on
We'll carry on
And though you're broken and defeated You're weary widow marches on
We'll carry on
We'll carry on
We'll carry on
We'll carry
We'll carry on
Reba MacIntyre - Is There Life Out There
She married when she was twenty
She thought she was ready
Now shes not so sure
She thought shed done some living
But now shes just wonderin
What shes living for
Now shes feeling that theres something more
Chorus:
Is there life out there
So much she hasnt done
Is there life beyond
Her family and her home
Shes done what she should
Should she do what she dares
She doesnt want to leave
Shes just wonderin
Is there life out there
Shes always lived for tomorrow
Shes never learned how
To live for today
Shes dyin to try something foolish
Do something crazy
Or just get away
Something for herself for a change
Repeat chorus
Theres a place in the sun that shes never been
Where life is fair and time is a friend
Would she do it the same as she did back then
She looks out the window and wonders again
Repeat chorus twice
Our Lady Peace- Will The Future Blame Us?
Are you dissapointed?
And have we destroyed it I
But I've been stumbling down this long and winding road
And these times are changing
And it's complicated I
Well I don't wanna know
And I ....
Don't ask why anymore
And I ...
Don't ask why anymore, anymore
And is it getting better?
Can we live forever I
And I'm not sure what the hell we're fighting for
And does the money make us?
And will the future blame us I
Oh I don't wanna know
And I ...
Don't ask why anymore
And I ...
Don't ask why anymore, anymore
When you're tired and alone
And you feel like letting go
Come home
When you can't take anymore
When you're beat up and ignored
Come home
The sun's inside a hole
The faster you don't know
A long, long way from home
There are things you need to know
The answers leave you cold
You're a long, long way from home
And the summers coming back
And it brings a second chance
If you're not part of this
Then I don't wanna know ...
And I ...
Don't ask why anymore
And I ...
Don't ask why anymore, anymore
When you're tired and alone
And you feel like letting go
Come home
Oh when you can't take anymore
When you're beat up and ignored
Come home
I'm coming home
Blues Traveler - Run Around Lyrics
Once upon a midnight dreary
I woke with something in my
head
I couldn't escape the memory
Of a phone call
and of what you said
Like a game show contestant with a
parting gift
I could not believe my eyes
When I saw
through the voice of a trusted friend
Who needs to humor me
and tell me lies
Yeah humor me and tell me lies
And
I'll lie too and say I don't mind
And as we seek
so shall we find
And when you're feeling open
I'll still be here
But not without a certain degree of
fear
Of what will be with you and me
I still can see
things hopefully
But you
Why you wanna give me a
run-around
Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up
When all it does is slow me down
And shake me and
my confidence
About a great many things
But I've
been there I can see it cower
Like a nervous magician
waiting in the wings
Of a bad play where the heroes are
right
And nobody thinks or expects too much
And
Hollywood's calling for the movie rights
Singing hey
babe let's keep in touch
Hey baby let's keep in
touch
But I want more than a touch I want you to reach
me
And show me all the things no one else can see
So
what you feel becomes mine as well
And soon if we're
lucky we'd be unable to tell
What's yours and
mine the fishing's fine
And it doesn't have to
rhyme so don't you feed me a line
But you
Why you wanna give me a run-around
Is it a sure-fire way
to speed things up
When all it does is slow me down
Tra la la la la bomba dear this is the pilot speaking
And I've got some news for you
It seems my ship
still stands no matter what you drop
And there ain't a
whole lot that you can do
Oh sure the banner may be torn
and the wind's gotten colder
Perhaps I've grown a
little cynical
But I know no matter what the waitress
brings
I shall drink it and always be full
Yeah, i
will drink it and always be full
Oh I like coffee
And I like tea
I'd like to be able to enter a final
plea
I still got this dream that you just can't
shake
I love you to the point you can no longer take
Well all right okay
So be that way
I hope and
pray
That there's something left to say
But
you
Why you wanna give me a run-around
Is it a
sure-fire way to speed things up
When all it does is slow
me down
But you
