"Savior" ~ Rise Against
(I can't find a good enough quality video, so it's up to you to look the song up if you're interested.)


It kills me not to know this,
but I've all but just forgotten,
what the color of her eyes were,
and her scars or how she got them,
as the telling signs of age rain down,
a single tear is dropping,
through the valleys of an aging face,
that this world has forgotten

There is no reconciliation,
that will put me in my place,
and there is no time like the present,
to drink these draining seconds

But seldom do these words ring true,
when I'm constantly failing you,
like walls that we just can't break through,
until we disappear

So tell me now,
if this ain't love,
then how do we get out,
'cause I don't know

That's when she said:
"I don't hate you boy,
I just want to save you,
while there's still something left to save."
(whoa-whoa)
That's when I told her:
"I love you girl,
but I'm not the answer,
to the questions that you still have."
Whoa, whoa!

And the day pressed on like crushing weights,
for no man does it ever wait,
like memories of dying days,
that deafen us like hurricanes

Bathed in flames,
we held the brand,
uncurled the fingers in your hand,
pressed into the flesh-like sand,
now do you understand?!

So tell me now,
if this ain't love,
then how do we get out,
'cause I don't know

That's when she said:
"I don't hate you boy,
I just want to save you,
while there's still something left to save."
(whoa-whoa)
That's when I told her:
"I love you girl,
but I'm not the answer,
to the questions that you still have."
Whoa, whoa!

One thousand miles away,
there's nothing left to say,
but so much left,
that I don't know

We never had a choice,
this world is too much noise,
it takes me under,
it takes me under once again...

I don't hate you,
I don't hate you, no

So tell me now,
if this ain't love,
then how do we get out,
'cause I don't know

That's when she said:
"I don't hate you boy,
I just want to save you,
while there's still something left to save."
(whoa-whoa)
That's when I told her:
"I love you girl,
but I'm not the answer,
to the questions that you still have."
(whoa-whoa)

I don't hate you,
I don't hate you,
(whoa-whoa)

I don't hate you,
I don't hate you, no

Whoa, whoa!

Lies. I have the CD. It's called Dance Floor Anthem.
I'm pretty sure the title is I Don't Wanna Be In Love, and the subtitle is Dance Floor Anthem.

Prince Ali from Aladdin

Make way for Prince Ali
Say hey! It's Prince Ali

Hey! Clear the way in the old Bazaar
Hey you!
Let us through!
It's a bright new star!
Oh Come!
Be the first on your block to meet his eye!

Make way!
Here he comes!
Ring bells! Bang the drums!
Are you gonna love this guy!

Prince Ali! Fabulous he!
Ali Ababwa
Genuflect, shom some respect
Down on one knee!
Now, try your best to stay calm
Brush up your sunday salaam
The come and meet his spectacular coterie

Prince Ali!
Mighty is he!
Ali Ababwa
Strong as ten regular men, definitely!
He faced the galloping hordes
A hundred bad guys with swords
Who sent those goons to their lords?
Why, Prince Ali

He's got seventy-five golden camels
Purple peacocks
He's got fifty-three
When it comes to exotic-type mammals
Has he got a zoo?
I'm telling you, it's a world-class menagerie

Prince Ali! Handsome is he, Ali Ababwa
That physique! How can I speak
Weak at the knee
Well, get on out in that square
Adjust your vein and prepare
To gawk and grovel and stare at Prince Ali!

There's no question this Ali's alluring
Never ordinary, never boring
Everything about the man just plain impresses
He's a winner, he's a whiz, a wonder!
He's about to pull my heart asunder!
And I absolutely love the way he dresses!

He's got ninety-five white Persian monkeys
(He's got the monkeys, let's see the monkeys)
And to view them he charges no fee
(He's generous, so generous)
He's got slaves, he's got servants and flunkies
(Proud to work for him)
They bow to his whim love serving him
They're just lousy with loyalty to Ali! Prince Ali!

Prince Ali!
Amorous he! Ali Ababwa
Heard your princess was a sight lovely to see
And that, good people, is why he got dolled up and dropped by
With sixty elephants, llamas galore
With his bears and lions
A brass band and more
With his forty fakirs, his cooks, his bakers
His birds that warble on key
Make way for prince Ali!

Liar ~ One Ok Rock

What do you want from me? Just let me breathe a little
What do you want to see? Me ni mieru mono?
What do you want to believe? Still nothing can settled
Hold on your words you say It's no good

Nani wo motome soshite nani wo ukeireru?
Futatsu ni hitotsu!! Boku ni wa mada sore ga I don't know
Tonari de warau kimi wa

Hey Liar, Hey Liar
What do you think of living without me?
Hey Liar, Hey Liar
Nani ga uso de dore ga shinjitsu?

Must be a dream I see marude deja vu no you
Trying so hard to know inside of you
Staring your eyes to feel kono omoi ga todoku youni to
Negau kedo risou to wa urahara So cold
Tonari de hohoemu kimi...

Hey Liar, Hey Liar
Are mo kore mo uso jya mou
I'm tired, so tired
What do you think of living without me?

There is nothing left to bleed
My heart can't take this anymore

Hey Liar, Hey Liar
What do you think of living without me?
Nee Liar, Oh yea Liar
Todomaru koto wa muimi??

Single cover. Turns out I was right, I just had it mixed up. Dance Floor Anthem is the title, I Don't Wanna Be In Love is the subtitle.

Gods Of War by Manowar

Down from the sky
Into the fight
Hearts full of rage
Full of thunder and glory
Swords in the wind
Crossing the sky
Lords of doom
Bring an end to their story

Father on bended knee
I ask thee
Raise thy hand
We the sons of Odin
Await thy command
Born under the sign
Of the hammer we stand
And here we all may die
Our blood on the ground
The battle horns sound
Let thy Valkyries fly

Down from the sky
Into the fight
Hearts full of rage
Full of thunder and glory
Swords in the wind
Crossing the sky
Lords of doom
Bring an end to their story

Today is the day
We die in the fight
None shall remain
To pass one more night
Now Valhalla's calling us
Immortal
We are gods of war
Immortal
We are gods of war

Odin here the fallen wait
To join thee by thy side
Let Valhalla's gates open wide
Born under the sign
Of the hammer they lived
And here they fought and died
Their blood on the ground
The battle horns sound
Let thy Valkyries fly

Down from the sky
Into the fight
Hearts full of rage
Full of thunder and glory
Swords in the wind
Crossing the sky
Lords of doom
Bring an end to their story

Today is the day
We die in the fight
None shall remain
To pass one more night
Now Valhalla's calling us
Immortal
We are gods of war
Immortal
We are gods of war

Down from the sky
Into the fight
Hearts full of rage
Full of thunder and glory
Swords in the wind
Crossing the sky
Lords of doom
Bring an end to their story

"Airplanes" ~ B.o.B. ft. Hayley Williams

Can we pretend that airplanes,
in the night sky,
are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now,
wish right now,
wish right now

Can we pretend that airplanes,
in the night sky,
are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now,
wish right now,
wish right now

Yeah,
I could use a dream,
or a genie,
or a wish,
to go back to a place much simpler than this,
'cause after all the partyin',
and smashin',
and crashin',
and all the glitz,
and the glam,
and the fashion,
and all the pandemonium,
and all the madness,
there comes a time,
where you fade to the blackness,
and when you starin' at that phone in your lap,
and you're hopin'
but them people never call you back

But that's just how the story unfolds,
you get another hand soon after you fold,
and when your plans unravel,
and they're sayin',
"what would you wish for,
if you had one chance?"

So airplane, airplane,
sorry I'm late,
I'm on my way,
so don't close that gate,
if I don't make that,
then I'll switch my flight,
and I'll be right back at it,
by the end of the night

Can we pretend that airplanes,
in the night sky,
are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now,
wish right now,
wish right now

Can we pretend that airplanes,
in the night sky,
are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now,
wish right now,
wish right now

Somebody take me back to the days,
before this was a job,
before I got paid,
before it ever mattered what I had in my bank,
yeah back when I was tryin' to get into the subway,
and back when I was rappin' for the heck of it,
but nowadays we rappin' to stay relevant,
I'm guessin' that if we can make some wishes out of airplanes,
then maybe, oh maybe, I'll go back to the days

Before the politics that we call the rap game,
and back when ain't nobody listened to my mix tape,
and back before I tried to cover up my slang,
but this is for the hater,
what's up Bobby Ray,

So can I get a wish,
to end the politics,
and get back to the music,
that started this Ben Browder,
so here I stand,
and then again I say,
I'm hopin' we can make some wishes out of airplanes.

Can we pretend that airplanes,
in the night sky,
are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now,
wish right now,
wish right now

Can we pretend that airplanes,
in the night sky,
are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now,
wish right now,
wish right now...

Thor (The Powerhead) by Manowar.

Black clouds on the horizon
Great thunder and burning rain
His chariot pounding,
I heard the heavens scream his name

I watched as he shouted
To the giants that died that day
He held up his hammer high
And called to Odin for a sign

Thor the mighty, Thor the brave
Crush the infidels in your way
By your hammer let none be saved
Live to die on that final day
Gods, Monsters and Men
We'll die together in the end

God of thunder, god of rain
Earth shaker who feels no pain
The powerhead of the Universe
Now send your never ending curse

Swing your hammer to crack the sky
Lift your cape so that you might fly
Back to Odin and the Gods on High
And leave our mortal world

Thor the mighty, Thor the brave
Crush the infidels in your way
By your hammer let none be saved
Live to die on that final day
Gods, Monsters and Men
We'll die together in the end

"Help Is On the Way" ~ Rise Against

I have my mother's dreams,
I have my father's eyes,
you can't take that from me,
just go ahead and try,
the Crescent City sleeps,
while giants in the sky,
preparing to unleash,
let out a mighty cry

Can nobody save us?
Will anyone try?
The bayou is burning,
the cypress have died,
and all along they're saying

Help is on the way,
(they said, they said)
help is on the way,
(they said, they said)
one by land, two by sea,
right there in front of me,
help is on the way

Five thousand feet below,
As black smoke engulfs the sky,
the ocean floor explodes,
eleven mothers cry,
my bones all resonate,
a burning lullaby,
you can't take that from me,
just go ahead and try

She stands at the shoreline,
with hands in the air,
her cries pierce the dark night,
does anyone care?
And all along they're saying

Help is on the way,
(they said, they said)
help is on the way,
(they said, they said)
one by land, two by sea,
right there in front of me,
help is on the way

Right here!
Right here!

Right here!
Right here!

Right here!
Right here!

Choking on the black gold,
upon which we rely,
we keep axes in the attics,
to see cameras in the sky

Help is on the way,
(they said, they said)
help is on the way,
(they said, they said)

We were told, just to sit tight,
'cause somebody, will soon arrive,
help is on the way,
but it never came!
It never came!

Help is on the way,
(they said, they said)
help is on the way,
(they said, they said)
one by land, two by sea,
right there in front of me,
help is on the way!
