The Guess Who
Undun
Blue October
Hidden Track after 18th Floor Balcony
"It's just me and I'll find a way to make it
there's no one left to stop me here i go
let me take it from the top
so why so long?
so sad i wanna be strong
don't try to take this from me
i've already spent living half my life
undone...
...I'm gonna feel a peace in me
I'm gonna feel at home
I'm gonna make this cloud
above me disappear, be gone.
I wanna feel a punch inside,
my heart beat on the floor
i don't wanna hurt no more...."

Those lyrics are fantastic. She has a great voice. I had never heard that song before, listening to it now.
I've had a few songs stuck in my head lately. This part of Lana Del Rey "Born to die" keeps spinning in my brain:
All my heart, it breaks, every step that I take...
Walking through the city streets, is it by mistake or design?
I feel so alone on a Friday night.
Can you make it feel like home, if I tell you you're mine?
It's like I told you honey:
Don't make me sad, don't make me cry.
Sometimes love is not enough and the road gets tough,
I don't know why.

Songs that I can identify with...
Natalie Grant - Held
Why should we be saved from nightmares
Were asking why this happens to us
Who have died to live, it's unfair
This is what it means to be held
How it feels, when the sacred is torn from your life
And you survive
Kelly Clarkson - Because of you
I lose my way
And it's not too long before you point it out
I cannot cry
Because I know that's weakness in your eyes
I'm forced to fake
A smile, a laugh everyday of my life
My heart can't possibly break
When it wasn't even whole to start with
Powderfinger - These Days
This life well it's slipping right through my hands
These days turned out nothing like I had planned
Control well it's slipping right through my hands
These days turned out nothing like I had planned
Indigo Girls - Closer To Fine
I'm trying to tell you something about my life
Maybe give me insight between black and white
The best thing you've ever done for me
Is to help me take my life less seriously, it's only life after all
Well darkness has a hunger that's insatiable
And lightness has a call that's hard to hear
I wrap my fear around me like a blanket
I sailed my ship of safety till I sank it, I'm crawling on your shore.

A song of ptsd'er to a supporter whose had enough.
HATE ME by Blue October
...and with a sad heart I say bye to you and wave, kicking shadows across the street
for every mistake I ever made, and like a baby boy I never was a man
until I saw your blue eyes cry and I held your face in my hands
and then I fell down yelling "make it go away!"

Cold- Crossfade
'I never really wanted you to see
The screwed up side of me that I keep
Locked inside of me so deep
It always seems to get to me
I never really wanted you to go
So many things you should have known
I guess for me theres just no hope
I never meant to be so cold'

"People Like Us" -Kelly Clarkson(cheesy I know, but I'm feelin' it.)
We come into this world unknown
But know that we are not alone
They try and knock us down
But change is coming, it's our time now
Hey… everybody loses it,
Everybody wants to throw it all away sometimes
And hey… yeah I know what you're going through
Don't let it get the best of you, you'll make it out alive
Ohh
People like us we've gotta stick together
Keep your head up, nothing lasts forever
Here's to the damned, to the lost and forgotten
It's hard to get high when you're living on the bottom
Oh woah oh oh woah oh
We are all misfits living in a world on fire
Oh woah oh oh woah oh
Sing it for the people like us, the people like us
Hey, this is not a funeral
It's a revolution, after all your tears have turned to rage
Just wait, everything will be okay
Even when you're feeling like it's going down in flames
Ohh
People like us we've gotta stick together
Keep your head up nothing lasts forever
Here's to the damned, to the lost and forgotten
It's hard to get high when you're living on the bottom
Oh woah oh oh woah oh
We are all misfits living in a world on fire
Oh woah oh oh woah oh
Sing it for the people like us, the people like us
Oh woah oh oh woah oh
You've just gotta turn it up loud when the flames get higher
Oh woah oh oh woah oh
Sing it for the people like us, the people like us
They can't do nothing to you, they can't do nothing to me
This is the life that we choose, this is the life that we bleed
So throw your fists in the air, come out, come out if you dare
Tonight we're gonna change forever
Everybody loses it, everybody wants to throw it all away sometimes
Ohh
People like us we've gotta stick together
Keep your head up nothing lasts forever
Here's to the damned, to the lost and forgotten
It's hard to get high when you're living on the bottom

The Broken Ones -Dia Frampton
I know they've hurt you bad.
Why hide the scars you have?
Baby let me straighten out your broken bones,
All your faults to me make you more beautiful.
I can't help it,
I love the broken ones,
The ones who
Need the most patching up.
The ones who
Never been loved,
Never been loved,
Never been loved enough.
Maybe I see a part of me in them.
The missing piece always trying to fit in.
The shattered heart
Hungry for a home.
No, you're not alone.
I love the broken ones.
I know they've hurt you bad.
Why hide the scars you have?
Baby let me straighten out your broken bones,
All your faults to me make you more beautiful.
I can't help it,
I love the broken ones,
The ones who
Need the most patching up.
The ones who
Never been loved,
Never been loved,
Never been loved enough.
Maybe I see a part of me in them.
The missing piece always trying to fit in.
The shattered heart
Hungry for a home.
No, you're not alone.
I love the broken ones.
Everlast - "What it's like"
We've all seen the man at the liquor store beggin' for your change.
The hair on his face is dirty, dreadlocked and full of mange.
He asked the man for what he could spare with shame in his eyes.
Get a job you f*ckin' slob is all he replied.
God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in his shoes.
'Cause then you really might know what it's like to sing the blues.
Then you really might know what it's like.
Then you really might know what it's like.
Then you really might know what it's like.
Then you really might know what it's like.
Mary got pregnant from a kid named Tom, said he was in love.
He said d' worry about a thing baby doll I'm the man you've been dreamin' of.
But three months later he said he won't date her or return her call.
And she swear god damn if I find that man I'm cuttin' off his balls.
Then she heads for the clinic and she gets some static walkin' through the door.
They call her a killer, and they call her a sinner, and they call her a whore.
God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in her shoes.
'Cause then you really might know what it's like to have to choose.
Then you really might know what it's like.
Then you really might know what it's like.
Then you really might know what it's like.
Then you really might know what it's like.
I've seen a rich man beg, I've seen a good man sin, I've seen a tough man cry.
I've seen a loser win, and a sad man grin. I heard an honest man lie.
I've seen the good side of bad, and the down side of up, and everything between.
I licked the silver spoon, drank from the golden cup, n' smoked the finest green.
I stroked the baddest dimes at least a couple of times before I broke they heart.
You know where it ends. Yo, it usually depends on where ya start.
I knew this kid named Max; He used to get fat stacks out on the corner with drugs.
He liked to hang out late at night, liked to get shit faced, and keep pace with thugs.
Until late one night there was a big gun fight Max lost his head.
He pulled out his chrome .45, talked some shit and wound up dead.
Now his wife and his kids are caught in the midst of all of his pain.
You know it crumbles that way, at least that's what they say when you play the game.
God forbid you ever had to wake up to hear the news.
'Cause then you really might know what it's like to have to lose.
Then you really might know what it's like.
Then you really might know what it's like.
Then you really might know what it's like.
To have to lose.
Very, very real song, one I relate to quite strongly

Thirty Whacks
The Dresden Dolls
Thirty licks with the belt
Same old tricks on myself
And I wonder
If everyone else lives this way
A succession of tests
A triumphant success
Each time I'm still intact
At the end of the day
Thirty drops in the glass
Keep my temper and pass
With my breath held
You bastards
You lucked out again
It's not really so bad
There's still mom
There's still
Damage to do
Before they wrest the axe from my
Hands...
Thirty day guarantee
But they can't have meant me
After all
I was born to a child proof world
No sharp corners or glass
Small objects or plastic bags
Please, these are death to a delicate
Girl it's no mystery
You should obviously go
Before I break everything
You're always telling me
That you're dying to know
But you're not really listening

Coming Down
Five Finger Death Punch
It's caving in around me
What I thought was solid ground
I tried to look the other way
But I couldn't turn around
It's OK for you to hate me
For all the things I've done
I've made a few mistakes
But I'm not the only one
Step away from the ledge
I'm coming down
I could never be
What you want me to
You pulled me under
To save yourself
(Save yourself)
You will never see
What's inside of me
I pulled you under just to save myself
Was there ever any question
On how much I could take?
You kept feeding me your bullshit
Hoping I would break
Is there anybody out there?
Is there anyone who cares?
Is there anybody listening?
Will they hear my final prayers?
Step away from the ledge
I'm coming down

It's tearing me apart
