....Ignore the fact that you may have seen this before. It was wonked out and, uh.... NOW IT HAS YOUTUBE LINKS. *shifty*

A Man- Alanis Morissette
I am man who has grown from a son
Been crucified by enraged women
I am son who was raised by such men
I'm often reminded of the fools I'm among

All Along the Watchtower- Bear McCreary
"No reason to get excited," the thief, he kindly spoke,
"There are many here among us who feel that life is but a joke
But you and I, we've been through that, and this is not our fate,
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late."

The Stranger- Billy Joel
Once I used to believe
I was such a great romancer
Then I came home to a woman
That I could not recognize
When I pressed her for a reason
She refused to even answer
It was then I felt the stranger
Kick me right between the eyes

Shelter From the Storm- Bob Dylan
'Twas in another lifetime, one of toil and blood
When blackness was a virtue and the road was full of mud
I came in from the wilderness, a creature void of form.
Come in, she said,
I'll give you shelter from the storm.

Not Dark Yet- Bob Dylan
Well, I've been to London and I've been to gay Paris
I've followed the river and I got to the sea
I've been down on the bottom of a world full of lies
I ain't looking for nothing in anyone's eyes
Sometimes my burden seems more than I can bear
It's not dark yet, but it's getting there

Secret Agent Man- Bruce Willis
There's a man who leads a life of danger
To everyone he meets he stays a stranger
With every move he makes another chance he takes
Odds are he won't live to see tomorrow

No Contest- Chess
You're a fool if you think you can wave a flag
And inspire some dramatic action
If I want bad enough then it's in the bag
If I don't you're a mere distraction.

Where I Want to Be- Josh Groban
Who needs a dream?
Who needs ambition?
Who'd be the fool
In my position?

Soldier of Fortune- Deep Purple
But I feel I'm growing older
And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the sound
Of a windmill goin' round
I guess I'll always be
A soldier of fortune

When All Around Has Fallen- Delirious?
When all around has fallen your castle has been burned
You used to be a king here now no one knows your name
You live your life for honour, defender of the faith
But you've been crushed to pieces and no one knows your pain

New York Minute- Don Henley
One day he crossed some line
And he was too much in this world
But I guess it doesn't matter anymore

Twilight Zone- Golden Earring
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go now that I've gone too far?

Secretariat- Jeffrey Foucault
I need a woman with a heel like Achilles
So I know there's always one way I can win
Love is patient, love is kind, but let's be honest
Love is a catalogue of deadly sins

Miles From the Lightning- Jeffrey Foucault
Songs on painted shadows
Bleed on broken roads
Paved from here to heaven
With anything but gold
And anything but simple
It always was your kind
From the straight and narrow running
Along the straightest line

12 Questions- Jim Byrnes
Just what is it that I want?
What the hell can I do?
Why must I lie to myself
How do I get back to you?
Who was it put up this wall
Why can't we tear it down?
How can I make it better?
Why in this lonely ol' town

Running Out of Time- Jim Byrnes
I may not have succeeded
But God knows that I tried
When I was a young man
I believed the world was mine
Now I struggle down these backstreets
And, oh Lord, I may be runnin' out of time

Gotta Knock a Little Harder- Mai Yamane
Happiness is just a word to me
And it might have meant a thing or two
If I'd known the difference

Emptiness, a lonely parody
And my life, another smokin' gun
A sign of my indifference

Didn't Know I'd Love You So Much- Repo! The Genetic Opera
Sometimes there's not enough time
But I didn't know I'd love you so much
I didn't know I'd love you so much
I didn't know I'd love you so much
But I do.

The Riddle- The Scarlet Pimpernel
Can I run to you?
Are you true to me?
I'll do unto you as you to me.
And we slowly learn
Someone has to burn
Better you than me

Zoe Jane- Staind
I want to hold you
Protect you from all of the things I've already endured
I want to show you
Show you all the things that this life has in store for you
I'll always love you
The way that a father should love his daughter

In the Air Tonight- Phil Collins
Well, if you told me you were drowning
I would not lend a hand
I've seen your face before my friend
But I don't know if you know who I am
Well, I was there and I saw what you did
I saw it with my own two eyes
So you can wipe off the grin, I know where you've been
It's all been a pack of lies
