Fan mix: John Sheppard- I Come Alive
Hello everyone here with another fan mix for scifiland for the manifesto challenge I decided to focus on Colonel John Sheppard because he is a very complex character in the show. I did my best to try the capture the highs and lows that surround our beloved Colonel John Sheppard. Enjoy
1) Basketcase -Green Day
Do you have the time
To listen to me whine
About nothing and everything
All at once
I am one of those
Melodramatic fools
Neurotic to the bone
No doubt about it
Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
Am I just stoned?
2) Blame It On Bad Luck -Bayside
I spent some time in a bad place at 18,
wishing I could see something through clear eyes.
Do you ever wake up to realize
that your life is meaningless?
Does it give you strength or lead you to
your grave at a young age?
Pound my knuckles hard against the floor.
My head against the wall.
But I did this to myself.
Assume it's just not worth getting back up,
so I'll blame it on bad luck.
And I'll shake responsibility, yeah.
3) I'm Not Okay (I Promise)- My Chemical Romance
Forget about the dirty looks
The photographs your boyfriend took
You said you read me like a book, but the pages all are torn and frayed
I'm okay
I'm okay!
I'm okay, now
(I'm okay, now)
But you really need to listen to me
Because I'm telling you the truth
I mean this, I'm okay!
(Trust Me)
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
Well, I'm not okay
I'm not o-fucking-kay
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
4) Hey You - Pink Floyd
But it was only fantasy.
The wall was too high,
As you can see.
No matter how he tried,
He could not break free.
And the worms ate into his brain.
5) Hurt - Nine Inch Nails
I wear this crown of shit
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here
What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
You could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way
6) Map of The Problematique- Muse
Fear and panic in the air
I want to be free
From desolation and despair
And I feel like everything I sow
Is being swept away
Well I refuse to let you go
I can't get it right
Get it right
Since I met you
Loneliness be over
When will this loneliness be over
7) This Is The Sound- The Exies
Somehow, i'm rendered speechless
I get nervous, when you're leaving
So tell me, reassure me
There is something worth believing
Then say no more
Say no more
Say no more
Cause, this is the sound of hurt
Unrehearsed and it's so loud
So, what are you waiting for?
You can't ignore the sound
Of someone breaking down
8) Ready To Start- Arcade Fire
Now you're knocking at my door
Saying please come out with us tonight
But I would rather be alone
Than pretend I feel alright
If the businessmen drink my blood
Like the kids in art school said they would
Then I guess I'll just begin again
You say, "can we still be friends? "
If I was scared... I would
And if I was pure... you know I would
And if I was yours... but I'm not
Now I'm ready to start
9) I Come Alive- The Used
Air is thin now.
While my lungs are collapsing,
Vertigo blankets my head.
Far from reckless,
When I’m comfortable, thought
That I know I could never forget.
(That I know I could never forget)
I come alive,
When I’m falling down.
I let myself go,
'Til I hit the ground.
When I’m there, at the edge,
In this moment I feel it I know.
Come alive when I’m falling down.
10) Walk- Foo Fighters
Do you remember the days
We built these paper mountains
And sat and watched them burn?
I think I found my place
Can't you feel it growing stronger?
Little conquerors
I'm learning to walk again
I believe I've waited long enough
Where do I begin?
I'm learning to talk again
I believe I've waited long enough
Where do I begin?
