Found this lurking in my Gmail Drafts folder

Lazlo Bane – Overkill

I can’t get to sleep
I think about the implications
Of diving in too deep
And possibly the complications

Especially at night
I worry over situations
I know will be alright
Perhaps it’s just imagination

Day after day it reappears
Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away

Alone between the sheets
Only brings exasperation
It’s time to walk the streets
Smell the desperation

At least there’s pretty lights
And though there’s little variation
It nullifies the night from overkill

Day after day it reappears
Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away
Come back another day

I can’t get to sleep
I think about the implications
Of diving in too deep
And possibly the complications

Especially at night
I worry over situations
I know will be alright
It’s just overkill

Day after day it reappears
Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away (x3)

Erg Sometimes this works sometimes it doesn’t….

Nother song I like (Video is not the best)

Song lyrics | Surround Me lyrics

Scott Stapp - Surround Me lyrics

They say no man's an island but I tend to disagree
I guess they've never seen my island,
And where it lies at sea
I'm lost inside my memory.
I'm still in disbelief.
If I could paint a picture for you this is what you'd see

I'm down on my knees
Begging you to rescue me
Please stop me
Don't let me run
Surround me...Surround me...now

A wounded man sounds desperate when he's lost all his belief
Can you look into my eyes and say you won't betray me
Where running out of time
How precious time can be
I'm counting all the moments of the times you could have helped me

I'm down on my knees
Begging you to rescue me
Please stop me
Don't let me run
Surround me...Surround me

I'm down on my knees
Begging you to rescue me
Please stop me
Don't let me run
Surround me...Surround me

Surround me now

Default - Wasting My Time lyrics

Well I don't want to see you waiting
I've already gone too far away
I still can't keep the day from ending
No more messed up reasons for me to stay

Well this is not for real
Afraid to feel
I just hit the floor
Don't ask for more
I'm wasting my time
I'm wasting my time
You can't stop the feeling
And there's no reason
Let's make the call
And take it all again
Woah again

Months went by with us pretending
When did our light turn from green to red
I took a chance and left you standing
Lost the will to do this once again

Well this is not for real
Afraid to feel
I just hit the floor
Don't ask for more
I'm wasting my time
I'm wasting my time
You can't stop the feeling
And there's no reason
Let's make the call
And take it all
I'm wasting my time
I'm wasting my time again
Woah again

See you waiting
Lonesome, lonely
See you waiting
I see you waiting

Well this is not for real
Afraid to feel
I just hit the floor
Don't ask for more
I'm wasting my time
I'm wasting my time
You can't stop the feeling
And there's no reason
Let's make the call
And take it all
I'm wasting my time
I'm wasting my ...
Well this is not for real
Afraid to feel
I just hit the floor
Don't ask for more
I'm wasting my time
I'm wasting my time
You can't stop the feeling
And there's no reason
Let's make the call
And take it all again
Woah again

Default - The Memory Will Never Die lyrics

I whisper in your ear the words you want to hear
You feel the wind and it reminds you
it happens everytime you stop and close your eyes
you can't deny what lives inside you
well i know it's hard to see
what is meant to be when yesterday is so far behind you

Deep inside your soul i'm always there
You made me believe the day you surrendered to me
the memory will never die
the love that you gave i'll never throw it away
the memory will never die

The tides take a turn
another lesson learned
i'm right here but still you wonder
would you say that you need more and it's known
it was before you were on your own and going under

Deep inside your soul i'm always there
You made me believe the day you surrendered to me
the memory will never die
the love that you gave i'll never throw it away
the memory will never die

Whenever you wake up
whenever you gave up all that you had for nothing at all
the bed that you lay in remember you made it
and nobodys there to catch you when you fall

You made me believe the day you surrendered to me
the memory will never die
the love that you gave i'll never throw it away
the memory will never die
You made me believe the day you surrendered to me
the memory will never die
the love that you gave i'll never throw it away
the memory will never die

One Republic - Stop And Stare lyrics

This town is colder now, I think it's sick of us
It's time to make our move, I'm shakin' off the rust
I've got my heart set on anywhere but here
I'm staring down myself, counting up the years
Steady hands, just take the wheel...
And every glance is killing me
Time to make one last appeal for the life I lead 

Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be, oh
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you're here not there
And you'd give anything to get what's fair
But fair ain't what you really need
Oh, can you see what I see 

They're tryin' to come back, all my senses push
Untie the weight bags, I never thought I could...
Steady feet, don't fail me now
Gonna run till you can't walk
But something pulls my focus out
And I'm standing down... 

Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be, oh
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you're here not there
And you'd give anything to get what's fair
But fair ain't what you really need
Oh, can you see what I see 

What you need, what you need... 

Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
And I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be
Oh, do you see what I see...

Yeah…lots of music posts lately …

Default – Count on Me

I know that life ain’t always good to you.
I’ve seen exactly what it’s put you through
Thrown you around and turned you upside down and so you
You got to thinking there was no way out
You started sinking and it pulled you down
It may be tough you’ve to get back up
Because you know that life ain’t over yet
I’m here for you so don’t forget
You can count on me
Cause’ I will carry you till you
Carry on

Anytime you need someone
Somebody strong to lean on
Well you can count on me
To hold you till that healing is done
And every time you fall apart
Well you can hide here in my arms
And you can count on me
To hold you till that feeling is gone

I wonder why nobody’s waiting on you
I’d like to be the one to pull you through your darkest times
I’d love to be the light that finds you
I see a silver lining on your cloud
I’ll pick you up whenever you fall down
Just take my hand and I will help you stand

Because you know that life ain’t over yet
I’m here for you so don’t forget
You can count on me
Cause’ I will carry you till you carry on
Anytime you need someone
Somebody strong to lean on
Well you can count on me to hold you till that healing is done
And every time you fall apart you can hide here in my arms
And you can count on me to hold you till that feeling is
Gone so you can live today
Seems so long to yesterday
Keep on counting on me to carry you till you carry on
Carry on

You know that life ain’t over yet
I’m here for you so don’t forget
You can count on me cause I will carry you till you carry on

Anytime you need someone
Somebody strong to lean on
Well you can count on me to hold you till that healing is done
And every time you fall apart
You can hide here in my arms
And you can count on me to hold you till that feeling is gone
Remember life ain’t over yet
I’m here for you so don’t forget
That you can count on me to hold you till that feeling is gone
Remember life ain’t over yet
I’m here for you so don’t forget
That you can count on me to hold you till that feeling is gone

I have liked these songs ever since someone in WoW introduced me to them over a year ago probably. Both are sad coincidentally, but they just really get stuck in my head. I have really started liking these 2 bands.

Sum 41 – Pieces

I tried to be perfect
But nothing was worth it
I don’t believe it makes me real
I thought it’d be easy
But no one believes me
I meant all the things that I said

If you believe it’s in my soul
I’d say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That I’m trying to let you know
That I’m better off on my own

This place is so empty
My thoughts are so tempting
I don’t know how it got so bad
Sometimes it’s so crazy that nothing could save me
But it’s the only thing that I have

If you believe it’s in my soul
I’d say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That I’m trying to let you know
That I’m better off on my own

(On my own!)

I tried to be perfect
It just wasn’t worth it
Nothing could ever be so wrong
It’s hard to believe me
It never gets easy
I guess I knew that all along

If you believe it’s in my soul
I’d say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That I’m trying to let you know
That I’m better off on my own

He also introduced me to Stereofuse and this is one of my favorites by them

Stereofuse – Everything

I remember you
do you remember me too
but on the 14th of July
the smell of roses made her cry
though you’re going far from home
rest assured you’re not alone

Cause I would give everything that I own
I’d give you my heart and this skin and these bones
the sun, the moon, the Earth, the sky
I’ve never even stopped to wonder why
I would do anything
and I would give everything
to be your everything

Seems like such a long long time
since your body crossed my mind
but I think that you should know
it wasn’t I who had to go

Cause I would give everything that I own
I’d give you my love and this heart made of stone
the sun, the moon, the Earth, the sky
the motorcycle that I like to ride
I would do anything
and I would give everything
to be your everything

But if ever you should stray
just sing along and I will play
or look into your hands
I’m slipping through them like a tiny grain of sand

I remember you
do you remember me too
seems like such a long long time
since I held you near and called you mine

Cause I would give everything that I own
I’d give you my heart and this skin and these bones
the sun, the moon, the Earth, the sky
a brand new car that you and I could drive
I would do anything
and I would give everything
to be your everything

Song lyrics | Little Wonders lyrics

Rob Thomas – Little Wonders lyrics

Let it go,
Let it roll right off your shoulder
Don’t you know
The hardest part is over
Let it in,
Let your clarity define you
In the end
We will only just remember how it feels

Our lives are made
In these small hours
These little wonders,
These twists & turns of fate
Time falls away,
But these small hours,
These small hours still remain

Let it slide,
Let your troubles fall behind you
Let it shine
Until you feel it all around you
And i don’t mind
If it’s me you need to turn to
We’ll get by,
It’s the heart that really matters in the end

Our lives are made
In these small hours
These little wonders,
These twists & turns of fate
Time falls away,
But these small hours,
These small hours still remain

All of my regret
Will wash away some how
But i can not forget
The way i feel right now

In these small hours
These little wonders
These twists & turns of fate
These twists & turns of fate
Time falls away but these small hours
These small hours, still remain,
Still remain
These little wonders
These twists & turns of fate
Time falls away
But these small hours
These little wonders still remain

Song lyrics | Little Wonders lyrics

This song just has me floored. There have been so many times in my life that this fit. There are times when there is no apologizing. This song just expresses that so intensely. The video itself gives me chills. Hopefully this works!
