song of the moment - man up

song of the moment
man up
the blue van




too tough
we won't break
enough
cause when you make

dark shadows
the young pros
they blow and come back ten fold

we don't need ropes to climb the walls you build
ideas and passion break the brinks with you
man up

machines
without any rust
machines
turn us to dust

when you make a mistake
the scarecrow break up its stake

we don't need ropes to climb the walls anymore
my mind is stronger than it was before
man up

when you make

dark shadows
the young pros
they blow and come back ten fold

we don't need ropes to climb the walls anymore
my mind is stronger than it was before
man up
man up

man up
so man up
yeah, man up
man up

song of the moment - gravity

song of the moment
gravity
sara bareilles




something always brings me back to you
it never takes too long
no matter what i say or do i'll still feel you here 'til the moment i'm gone.

you hold me without touch
you keep me without chains
i never wanted anything so much than to drown in your love and not feel your rain

set me free, leave me be. i don't want to fall another moment into your gravity
here i am and i stand so tall, just the way i'm supposed to be
but you're on to me and all over me

you loved me 'cause i'm fragile
when i thought that i was strong
but you touch me for a little while and all my fragile strength is gone

set me free, leave me be. i don't want to fall another moment into your gravity
here i am and i stand so tall, just the way i'm supposed to be
but you're on to me and all over me

i live here on my knees as i try to make you see that you're everything i think i need here on the ground
but you're neither friend nor foe though i can't seem to let you go
the one thing that i still know is that you're keeping me down
you’re keeping me down

you're on to me, on to me, and all over...
something always brings me back to you
it never takes too long

song of the moment - fuckin perfect

song of the moment
fuckin perfect
p!nk




made a wrong turn, once or twice
dug my way out, blood and fire
bad decisions, that's alright
welcome to my silly life
mistreated, misplaced, misunderstood
miss 'no way, it's all good', it didn't slow me down
mistaken, always second guessing, underestimated
look, i'm still around

pretty, pretty please, don't you ever, ever feel
like you're less than fuckin' perfect
pretty, pretty please, if you ever, ever feel like you're nothing,
you're fuckin' perfect to me

you're so mean when you talk about yourself; you were wrong
change the voices in your head; make them like you instead
so complicated, look happy, you'll make it
filled with so much hatred, such a tired game
it's enough; i've done all i can think of
chased down all my demons, i've seen you do the same

pretty, pretty please, don't you ever, ever feel
like you're less than fuckin' perfect
pretty, pretty please, if you ever, ever feel like you're nothing,
you're fuckin' perfect to me

the whole world's scared so i swallow the fear
the only thing i should be drinking is an ice cold beer
so cool in line, and we try try try, but we try too hard and it's a waste of my time
done looking for the critics, cause they're everywhere
they don’t like my jeans; they don't get my hair
exchange ourselves, and we do it all the time
why do we do that? why do i do that?
(why do i do that?)

pretty, pretty please, don't you ever, ever feel
like you're less than fuckin' perfect
pretty,pretty please, if you ever, ever feel
like you're nothing, you're fuckin' perfect to me, yeahhh
you're perfect, you're perfect
pretty, pretty please, don't you ever, ever feel
like you're less than fuckin' perfect
pretty, pretty please, if you ever, ever feel, like you're nothing
you're fuckin' perfect to me

song of the moment - ran away to tell the world

song of the moment
ran away to tell the world
ours













will you stand up for me?
so i can see everything
what's making you scream?
are you breathing?
is it what you're seeing?

come on
don't spend your whole life waiting for your whole life
thinking that it's over
...are you breathing?

when you gave up on me
were you happy?
could you ever be?
was it making you mean?
it's just a dream...
just a dream

come on
don't spend your whole life waiting for your whole life
thinking that it's over
...are you breathing?

sometimes i get so lost and i can't fight but who to trust and
what's life or a dream?
what's life or a dream?

i ran away to tell the world
and everyday, everyday, everyday...
i ran away to tell the world
that i'm lonely

come on
or spend your whole life waiting for your whole life
thinking that it's over
you spent your whole life waiting for your whole life
thinking that it's
come on
don’t spend your whole life waiting for your whole life
thinking that it's alright
waiting for you whole life
you can spend your whole life
waiting for you’re whole life
thinking that it's over, over
that it's over, over

song of the moment - glitter in the air

song of the moment
glitter in the air
p!nk




have you ever fed a lover with just your hands?
closed your eyes and trusted, just trusted?
have you ever thrown a fist full of glitter in the air?
have you ever looked fear in the face and said, "i just don't care"?

it's only half past the point of no return
the tip of the iceberg
the sun before the burn
the thunder before the lightning
the breath before the phrase
have you ever felt this way?

have you ever hated yourself for staring at the phone?
you're whole life waiting on the ring to prove you're not alone
have you ever been touched so gently you had to cry?
have you ever invited a stranger to come inside?

it's only half past the point of oblivion
the hourglass on the table
the walk before the run
the breath before the kiss
and the fear before the flames
have you ever felt this way?

la la la la la la la la

there you are, sitting in the garden
clutching my coffee,
calling me sugar
you called me sugar

have you ever wished for an endless night?
lassoed the moon and the stars and pulled that rope tight?
have you ever held your breath and asked yourself will it ever get better than tonight?
tonight





and just for good measure
(cuz i dig the fact that she can sing while doing aerial acrobatics - literally)

song of the moment - everybody's fool

song of the moment
everybody's fool
evanescence




perfect by nature
icons of self-indulgence
just what we all need
more lies about a world that

never was and never will be
have you no shame? don't you see me?
you know you've got everybody fooled

look here she comes now
bow down and stare in wonder
oh how we love you
no flaws when you're pretending
but now i know she

never was and never will be
you don't know how you've betrayed me
and somehow you've got everybody fooled

without the mask where will you hide?
can't find yourself lost in your lie

i know the truth now
i know who you are
and i don't love you anymore

it never was and never will be
you don't know how you've betrayed me
and somehow you've got everybody fooled

it never was and never will be
you're not real and you can't save me
somehow now you're everybody's fool

song of the moment - don't cry out

song of the moment
don't cry out
shiny toy guns





i don't get you . .
i can't forget what you've forgotten
all along
i've never been so alone

don't cry out
cease fire

i was pretending
your secret kiss of confidence
was my escape
the perfect game to play...

don't cry out
cease fire

ten nine eight and i'm breaking away
i'm all dressed up and i'm ready to play
seven six five four and i'm all over you
counting three two one and i'm having fun...

your fascination
with naked walls of silk and skin
with no conditions
i needed you to notice....
that's all i wanted

don't cry out
cease fire

ten nine eight and i'm breaking away
i'm all dressed up and i'm ready to play
seven six five four and i'm all over you
counting three two one and i'm having fun...

ten nine eight and i'm breaking away
i'm all dressed up and i'm ready to play
seven six five four and i'm all over you
counting three two one and i'm having fun...

don't cry out
cease fire





ps

let me know if the links don't work

so i can give a stern talking to, or maybe even fix them
(depends on how much coffee i've had)
