Tied together with a Smile - Taylor Swift
Seems the only one who doesn't see your beauty Is the face in the mirror looking back at you You walk around here thinking you're not pretty But that's not true, cause I know you
Hold on baby you're losing it The water's high you're jumping in to it And letting go and no one knows That you cry but you don't tell anyone That you might not be the golden one And you're tied together with a smile but you're coming undone
Guess its true that love is all you wanted Cause you're giving it away like it's extra change Hoping it will end up in his pocket But he leaves you out like a penny in the rain Oh cause it's not his price to pay It's not his price to pay
Hold on baby you're losing it The water's high you're jumping in to it And letting go and no one knows That you cry but you don't tell anyone That you might not be the golden one And you're tied together with a smile but you're coming undone
oh oh oh oh Hold on baby you're losing it The water's high you're jumping in to it And letting go and no one knows That you cry but you don't tell anyone That you might not be the golden one And you're tied together with a smile but you're coming undone
oh oh oh oh You're tied together with a smile but you're coming undone

Rodney Atkins - If You're Going Through Hell
Well you know those times when you feel like There's a sign there on your back That says I don't mind if you kick me, seems like everybody has Things go from bad to worse You think it can't get worse than that And then they do
You step off the straight and narrow And you don't know where you are Used the needle of your compass, to sew up your broken heart Ask directions from a genie in a bottle of jim beam And she lies to you That's when you learn the truth
[Chorus]
If you're goin' through hell keep on going Don't slow down if you're scared don't show it You might get out before the devil even knows you're there
I've been deep down in that darkness I've been down to my last match Felt a hundred different deamons breathin' fire down my back And I knew that if I stumbled I'd fall right into the trap That they were layin'
But the good news is there's angels everywhere out on the street Holdin' out a hand to pull you back up on your feet The one's that you've been draggin' for so long You're on your knees might as well be prayin' Guess what I'm sayin'
[Chorus]
If you're goin' through hell keep on going Don't slow down if you're scared don't show it You might get out before the devil even knows you're there When you're goin' through hell keep on movin' Face that fire walk right through it You might get out before the devil even knows you're there
If you're goin' through hell keep on going Don't slow down if you're scared don't show it You might get out before the devil even knows you're there When you're goin' through hell keep on movin' Face that fire walk right through it You might get out before the devil even knows you're there You might get out before the devil even knows you're there

I'll be there for You (For Rachie! Love Hannah)
So no one told you life was gonna be this way *clap*clap*clap*clap* Your job's a joke, you're broke, your love life's DOA
It's like you're always stuck in second gear When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year

I'll be there for you When the rain starts to pour I'll be there for you Like I've been there before I'll be there for you 'Cuz you're there for me too...
You're still in bed at ten and work began at eight You've burned your breakfast so far... things are goin' great
Your mother warned you there'd be days like these Oh but she didn't tell you when the world has brought You down to your knees that...
I'll be there for you When the rain starts to pour I'll be there for you Like I've been there before I'll be there for you 'Cuz you're there for me too...
No one could ever know me No one could ever see me Seems you're the only one who knows What it's like to be me Someone to face the day with Make it through all the rest with Someone I'll always laugh with Even at my worst I'm best with you, yeah
It's like you're always stuck in second gear When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year...
I'll be there for you When the rain starts to pour I'll be there for you Like I've been there before I'll be there for you 'Cuz you're there for me too...
I'll be there for you I'll be there for you I'll be there for you 'Cuz you're there for me too...

Fall is here, hear the yell Back to school, ring the bell Brand new shoes, walking blues Climb the fence, books and pens I can tell that we are going to be friends Yes, I can tell that we are going to be friends
Walk with me, Suzy Lee Through the park and by the tree We can rest upon the ground And look at all the bugs we've found Safely walk to school without a sound We safely walk to school without a sound
Well, here we are no one else We walk to school all by ourselves There's dirt on our uniforms From chasing all the ants and worms We clean up and now it's time to learn We clean up and now it's time to learn
Numbers, letters learn to spell Nouns and books and show and tell Play time, we will throw the ball Then back to class through the hall Teacher marks our height against the wall The teacher marks our height against the wall
And we don't notice any time pass 'Cause we don't notice anything We sit side by side in every class The teacher thinks that I sound funny But she likes it when you sing
Tonight I'll dream in my bed While silly thoughts run through my head Of the bugs and alphabet And when I wake tomorrow I'll bet You and I will walk together again
'Cause I can tell that we are going to be friends Yes, I can tell that we are going to be friends

Dido - See You When You're 40
I've driven round in circles for three hours It was bound to happen that I'd end up at yours I temporarily forgot there's better days to come I thought that I would give it just one more chance
Cos' I want, tonight, what I've been waiting for But I found, tonight, what I'd been warned about
You think that you are complicated, deep mystery to all Well it's taken me a while to see, you're not so special All energy no meaning, with a lot of words So paper thin that one real feeling, could knock you down
And I've seen, tonight, what I'd been warned about I'm gonna leave, tonight, before I change my mind
So see me when you're 40, lost and all alone being comforted by strangers you'll never need to know not sad because you lost me but sad because you thought it was cool to be sad
You think misery will make you stand apart from the crowd well if you had walked past me today I wouldn't have picked you out I wouldn't have picked you out
now I've seen, tonight, how I could waste my time and I'll be on my way, and I won't be back cos I've seen, tonight, what I've been warned about your just a boy, not a man, and I'm not coming back

Not Myself
Suppose I said I am on my best behavior there are times I lose my worried mind
Would you want me when I'm not myself? Wait it out while I am someone else?
Suppose I said Colors change for no good reason words will go From poetry to prose
Would you want me when I'm not myself? Wait it out while I am someone else?
And I, In time, Will come around, I always do, For you
Suppose I said You're my saving grace?
My grace My self Not myself, my myself and I... When I'm someone else When I'm someone else When I'm someone else When I'm not myself Myself Myself

My Stupid Mouth
My stupid mouth Has got me in trouble I said too much again To a date over dinner yesterday And I could see She was offended She said "well anyway..." Just dying for a subject change
Oh, another social casualty Score one more for me How could I forget? Mama said "think before speaking" No filter in my head Oh, what's a boy to do I guess he better find one soon
We bit our lips She looked out the window Rolling tiny balls of napkin paper I played a quick game of chess with the salt and pepper shaker And I could see clearly, An indelible line was drawn Between what was good, what just slipped out and what went wrong
Oh, the way she feels about me has changed Thanks for playing, try again. How could I forget? Mama said "think before speaking" No filter in my head Oh, what's a boy to do I guess he better find one
I'm never speaking up again It only hurts me I'd rather be a mystery Than she desert me
Oh I'm never speaking up again Starting now... Starting now
One more thing Why is it my fault? So maybe I try too hard But it's all because of this desire I just wanna be liked I just wanna be funny Looks like the jokes on me So call me captain backfire
I'm never speaking up again it only hurts me I'd rather be a mystery than she desert me
oh i'm never speaking up again i'm never speaking up again i'm never speaking up again Starting now, starting now...

I Hope You Dance - Lee Ann Womack
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder You get your fill to eat But always keep that hunger May you never take one single breath for granted God forbid love ever leave you empty handed I hope you still feel small When you stand by the ocean Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance I hope you dance I hope you dance
I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance Never settle for the path of least resistance Living might mean taking chances But they're worth taking Lovin' might be a mistake But it's worth making Don't let some hell bent heart Leave you bitter When you come close to selling out Reconsider Give the heavens above More than just a passing glance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance I hope you dance (Time is a real and constant motion always) I hope you dance (Rolling us along) I hope you dance (Tell me who) I hope you dance (Wants to look back on their youth and wonder) (Where those years have gone)
I hope you still feel small When you stand by the ocean Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance Dance I hope you dance I hope you dance (Time is a real and constant motion always) I hope you dance (Rolling us along) I hope you dance (Tell me who) (Wants to look back on their youth and wonder) I hope you dance (Where those years have gone)
(Tell me who) I hope you dance (Wants to look back on their youth and wonder) (Where those years have gone)

"Brighter Than Sunshine" (Variation by Hannah Carleton)
I never understood before I never knew what trust was for My heart was broke, my head was sore What a feeling
Tied up in ancient history I didnt believe in destiny I look up you're standing next to me What a feeling
What a feeling in my soul Friendship burns brighter than sunshine Brighter than sunshine Let the rain fall, i don't care I'm yours, together lets kill time, Each day we're just killing time And it's brighter than sunshine
I never saw it happening I'd given up and given in I just couldn't take the hurt again What a feeling
I didn't have the strength to fight Suddenly you seemed to know the right Ways to win What a feeling
What a feeling in my soul Life burns brighter than sunshine It's brighter than sunshine Let the rain fall, I don't care I'm yours and suddenly I'm fine Suddenly I'm fine
It's brighter than the sun It's brighter than the sun It's brighter than the sun, sun, shine.
Love will remain a mystery But give me your hand and you will see I trust you more than I can believe
What a feeling in my soul Love burns brighter than sunshine It's brighter than sunshine Let the rain fall, I don't care I'm yours and suddenly I'm tryin' Suddenly I'm tryin'
I got a feeling in my soul ...

Jimi Hendrix - My Friend
Hey, look out for my glass up there, man! That's my drink, man, that's my drink, alright... Make it a double, or eh... Somebody has to sing Some body will sing? Somebody will sing, right? (I don't know!)
Y'all pass me that bottle, And I'll sing you all a real song Yeah! Let me get my key, ahum!
Well, I'm looking through Harlem My stomach squeal just a little more A stagecoach full of feathers and footprints, Pulls up to soap box door Now a lady with a pearl handled necktie Tied to the driver's fence Breathes in my face, Bourbon and coke possessed words & "Haven't I seen you somewhere in hell, Or was it just an accident?" (You know how I felt then, and so:)
Before I could ask "was it the East or West side?" My feet they howled in pain The wheels of a bandwagon cut very deep, But not as deep in my mind as the rain And as they pulled away I could see her words Stagger and fall on my muddy tent Well I picked them up, brushed them off, To see what they say, And you wouldn't believe: `Come around to my room, with the tooth in the middle, And bring along the bottle and a president'
And eh sometimes it's not so easy, baby Especially when your only friend, Talks, sees, looks and feels like you, And you do just the same as him (Gets very lonely up this road, baby) (Yeah, hmmm, yeah) (Got more to say!)
Well I'm riding through LA (huh), On a bicycle built for fools And I seen one of my old buddies And he say, "you don't look the way you usually do" I say, "well, some people look like a coin-box" He say, "look like you ain't got no coins to spare" And I laid back and I thought to myself, and I said this: I just picked up my pride from underneath the pay phone, And combed this breath right out of my hair And sometimes it's not so easy Especially when your only friend Talk, sees, looks and feels like you, And you do just the same as him
Just got out of a Scandinavian jail, And I'm on my way straight home to you But I feel so dizzy I take a quick look in the mirror, To make sure my friend's here with me too And you know good well I don't drink coffee, So you fill my cup full of sand And the frozen tea leaves on the bottom Sharing lipstick around the broken edge And my coat that you let your dog lay by the fire on And your cat he attacked me from his pill-box ledge And I thought you were my friend too Man, my shadow comes in line before you I'm finding out that it's eh not so easy Specially when your only friend Talks, looks, sees and feels like you, And you do the same just like him
(Lord it's so lonely here, hmmm, yeah) Yeah! (Pass me that bottle over there...) Yeah, yeah, okay...

Lonestar - somebodys someone Turn to the six o'clock news, another soldier dies Tried to hide it but I couldn't help it, I had to cry When my little boy asked me daddy was he your friend I said no, I didn't even know him But he was somebody's someone, a neighbor, a husband A brother, a father, and a mother's only son He was an uncle, a cousin, somebody's best friend And I'm sure at times a shoulder to lean on He was somebody's someone So I sat there in that chair and helped him understand How this brave young man gave his life for our land And although he's someone we'll never know To you and me he is a hero He was somebody's someone, a neighbor, a husband [From: www.elyrics.net/read/l/lonestar-lyrics/somebody_s-someone-lyrics.html ] A brother, a father, and a mother's only son He was an uncle, a cousin, somebody's best friend And I'm sure at times a shoulder to lean on He was somebody's someone To the world he was a total stranger Who kept us safe and out of danger But now he's just a picture on TV Somebody's memory He was somebody's someone, a neighbor, a husband A brother, a father, and a mother's only son He was an uncle, a cousin, somebody's best friend And I'm sure at times a shoulder to lean on He was somebody's someone He was somebody's someone

FIRST DAY OF MY LIFE - Bright Eyes
This is the first day of my life I swear I was born right in the doorway I went out in the rain suddenly everything changed They're spreading blankets on the beach
Yours is the first face that I saw I think I was blind before I met you Now I don't know where I am I don't know where I've been But I know where I want to go
And so I thought I'd let you know That these things take forever I especially am slow But I realize that I need you And I wondered if I could come home
Remember the time you drove all night Just to meet me in the morning And I thought it was strange you said everything changed You felt as if you'd just woke up And you said "this is the first day of my life I'm glad I didn't die before I met you But now I don't care I could go anywhere with you And I'd probably be happy"
So if you want to be with me With these things there's no telling We just have to wait and see But I'd rather be working for a paycheck Than waiting to win the lottery Besides maybe this time is different I mean I really think you like me

"Starts With Goodbye"
I was sitting on my doorstep, I hung up the phone and it fell out of my hand, But I knew I had to do it, And they wouldn't understand, So hard to see myself without them, I felt a piece of my heart break, But when you're standing at a crossroad, There's a choice you gotta make.
I guess it's gonna have to hurt, I guess I'm gonna have to cry, And let go of some things I've loved, To get to the other side, I guess it's gonna break me down, Like falling when you try to fly, It's sad, but sometimes moving on with the rest of your life, Starts with goodbye.
I know there's a blue horizon, Somewhere up ahead, just waiting for me, Getting there means leaving things behind, Sometimes life's so bitter sweet.
I guess it's gonna have to hurt, I guess I'm gonna have to cry, And let go of some things I've loved, To get to the other side, I guess it's gonna break me down, Like falling when you try to fly, It's sad, but sometimes moving on with the rest of your life, Starts with goodbye.
Time, time heals, The wounds that you feel, Somehow, right now.
I guess it's gonna have to hurt, I guess I'm gonna have to cry, And let go of some things I've loved, To get to the other side, I guess it's gonna break me down, Like falling when you try to fly, It's sad, but sometimes moving on with the rest of your life, Starts with goodbye, I guess I'm gonna have to cry, And let go of some things I've loved, To get to the other side, Starts with goodbye, The only way you try to find, Moving on with the rest of your life, Starts with goodbye, Na na na na na na na.
