"Always" by Erasure

Open your eyes I see
Your eyes are open
Wear no disguise for me
Come into the open

When it’s cold outside
Am I here in vain?
Hold on to the night
There will be no shame

Always
I wanna be with you
And make believe with you
And live in harmony harmony oh love

Always
I wanna be with you
And make believe with you
And live in harmony harmony oh love

Melting the ice for me
Jump into the ocean
Hold back the tide I see
Your love in motion

When it’s cold outside
Am I here in vain?
Hold on to the night
There will be no shame

Always
I wanna be with you
And make believe with you
And live in harmony harmony oh love

Always
I wanna be with you
And make believe with you
And live in harmony harmony oh love

When it’s cold outside
Am I here in vain?
Hold on to the night
There will be no shame

Always
I wanna be with you
And make believe with you
And live in harmony harmony oh love

Always
I wanna be with you
And make believe with you
And live in harmony harmony oh love

Always
I wanna be with you
And make believe with you
And live in harmony harmony oh love


Now go here and make a wish. Seriously.
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Translation:

It came from beyond the extreme reaches of our reality,
It came to laugh at our naive existences.
I am puzzled by the truth that slips through my hands even as I cover my ears.
Where in this thin body do I find the strength to stand?

Uninstall, uninstall.
I was told that I am just one of the countless specks of dust on this planet,
But that is something I cannot yet comprehend.
Uninstall, uninstall.
I have no choice but to pretend that
I am a warrior who knows no fear. Uninstall.

Our subconscious grows sharper without us realizing.
When I open my eyes to the contourless presence below my bed,
I am devoid of any feelings,
Except an impulse to destroy everything and anything.
Since I can't even choose the season of my passing...

Uninstall, uninstall.
If there's no one left to replace me,
Then I will take that regular daily life and
Uninstall, uninstall.
It makes me want to end everything with these hands.
It's not a bad thing to uninstall.

Uninstall, uninstall.
I was told that I am just one of the countless specks of dust on this planet,
But that is something I cannot yet comprehend.
Uninstall, uninstall.
I have no choice but to pretend that
I am a warrior who knows no fear. Uninstall.

Thunder, rain and lightning
Danger, water rising
Clamor, sirens wailing
It's such a bad sign

Shadows of dark creatures
Steel clouds floating in the air
People run for shelter
What's gonna happen to us?

All the steps we take, all the moves we make
All the pain at stake
I see the chaos for everyone
Who are we? What can we do?

You and I are the same in the way that
We have our own styles that we won't change
Yours is filled with evil, and mine is not
There is no way I can lose

Can't hold on much longer (but I will never let go)
I know it's a one-way track (tell me now how long this'll last)
I'm not gonna think this way (nor will I count on others)
Close my eyes and feel the burn (now I see what I gotta do)
Open your heart, it's gonna be alright

Ancient cities blazing
Shadows keep attacking
Little children crying
Confusion, hopeless anger

I don't know what it can be
But you drive me crazy
All your cunning tricks make me sick
You won't have it your own way

Can't hold on much longer (but I will never let got)
I know it's a one-way track (tell me now how long this'll last)
I'm not gonna think this way (nor will I counter on others)
Close my eyes and feel the burn (now I see what I gotta do)
Open your heart, and you will see

If it won't stop, there will be no future for us
Its heart is tied down by all the hate
Gotta set him free

I know it's a one-way track (tell me now how long this'll last)
Close my eyes and feel the burn (now I see what I gotta do)
Gotta open your heart, dude!

Can't hold on much longer (but I will never let go)
I know it's a one-way track (tell me now how long this'll last)
I'm not going to think this way (nor will I count on others)
Close my eyes and feel the burn (now I see what I gotta do)
Open your heart, it's gonna be alright

Open your heart
Open your heart

Phantom of the Opera from... The Phantom of the Opera

In sleep he sang to me,
in dreams he came ...
that voice which calls to me and speaks my name ...

And do
I dream again?
For now
I find the Phantom of the Opera is there - inside my mind ...

Sing once again with me our strange duet ...
My power over you grows stronger yet ...

And though you turn from me,
to glance behind,
the Phantom of the Opera is there - inside your mind ...

Those who have seen your face draw back in fear ...
I am the mask you wear ...

It's me they hear ...

Your(My) spirit and my(your) voice in one
combined: the Phantom of the Opera
is there - inside your(my) mind ...

He's there,
the Phantom of the Opera ...
Beware the Phantom of the Opera ...

In all your fantasies,
you always knew that man and mystery ...

... were both in you ...

And in this labyrinth where night is blind,
the Phantom of the Opera is there(here)- inside your(my) mind ...

Sing, my Angel of Music!

He's there the Phantom of the Opera ...

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah ((awesome high note of awesome))
May the Triforce be with you.

--Amour, By Rammstein--

Die Liebe ist ein wildes Tier
Sie atmet dich sie sucht nach dir
Nistet auf gebrochenen Herzen
Geht auf Jagd bei Kuss und Kerzen
Saugt sich fest an deinen Lippen
Gräbt sich Dinge durch die Rippen
Lässt sich fallen weich wie Schnee
Erst wird es heiss dann kalt am Ende tut es weh

Amour Amour
Alle wollen nur dich zähmen
Amour Amour am Ende
gefangen zwischen deinen Zähnen

Die Liebe ist ein wildes Tier
Sie beisst und kratzt und tritt nach mir
Hält mich mit tausend Armen fest
Zerrt mich in ihr Liebesnest
Frisst mich auf mit Haut und Haar
und wirbt mich wieder aus nach Tag und Jahr
Lässt sich fallen weich wie Schnee
Erst wird es heiss dann kalt am Ende tut es weh

Amour Amour
Alle wollen nur dich zähmen
Amour Amour am Ende
gefangen zwischen deinen Zähnen

Die Liebe ist ein wildes Tier
In die Falle gehst du ihr
In die Augen starrt sie dir
Verzaubert wenn ihr Blick dich trifft

Bitte bitte gib mir Gift

Eyes on Me from Final Fantasy VIII - Sung by Faye Wong

Whenever sang my songs
On the stage, on my own
Whenever said my words
Wishing they would be heard
I saw you smiling at me
Was it real or just my fantasy?
You'd always be there in the corner
Of this tiny little bar

My last night here for you
Same old songs, just once more
My last night here with you?
Maybe yes, maybe no
I kind of liked it your way
How you shyly placed your eyes on me
Did you ever know
That I had mine on you?

Darling, so there you are
With that look on your face
As if you're never hurt
As if you're never down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly but sure
If frown is shown then
I will know that you are no dreamer

So let me come to you
Close as I want to be
Close enough for me
To feel your heart beating fast
And stay there as I whisper
How I love your peaceful eyes on me
Did you ever know
That I had mine on you?

Darling, so share with me
Your love if you have enough
Your tears if you're holding back
Or pain if that's what it is
How can I let you know
I'm more than the dress and the voice
Just reach me out then
You will know that you're not dreaming

Darling, so there you are
With that look on your face
As if you're never hurt
As if you're never down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly but sure
If frown is shown then I will know
that you are no dreamer

No Good Deed from Wicked

FIYEROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Eleka Nahmen Nahmen
Ah tum ah tum Eleka Nahmen
Eleka Nahmen Nahmen
Ah tum ah tum eleka Nahmen

Let his flesh not be torn
let his blood leave no stain
Though they beat him,
let him feel no pain.
Let his bones never break
and however they try
to destroy him
let him never die
let him never die!

Eleka Nahmen Nahmen
Ah tum ah tum Eleka Nahmen
Eleka Nahmen Nahmen
Ah tum ah tum eleka...eleka... agh!

What good is this chanting
I don't even know what I'm reading
I don't even know what trick I ought to try
Fiyero, where are you, already dead or bleeding
One more disaster I can add to my generous supply

No good deed goes unpunished
No act of charity goes unresented
No good deed goes unpunished
That's my new creed
My road of good intentions
Led where such roads always lead
No good deed goes unpunished

Nessa...
Doctor Dillamond...
Fiyero.....
Fiyerooooooooooo!

One question haunts and hurts
Too much, too much to mention
Was I really seeking good
or just seeking attention?
Is that all good deeds are
when looked at with an ice-cold eye?
If that's all good deeds are
maybe that's the reason why

No good deed goes unpunished
All helpful urges should be circumvented
No good deed goes unpunished
Sure I ment well, well look at what well ment did

Wll right enough so be it, so be it then.
Let all Oz be agreed, I'm wicked through and through
since I can not succeed, Fiyero, saving you
I promise no good deed
Will I attempt to do again
Ever again
No good deed will I do again!
May the Triforce be with you.

There once was a king who called for the spring
For his world was still covered in snow.
But the spring had not been, for he was wicked and mean.
In his winter fields, nothing would grow.
And when a traveler called, seeking help at the door,
Only food and a bed for the night,
He ordered his slave to turn her away,
The girl with April in her eyes...

Oh, oh-oh, on and on she goes,
Through the winter's night, the wild wind, and the snow.
Hi, hi-hi, on and on she rides.
Someone help the girl with April in her eyes...

She rode through the night 'til she came to the light
Of a humble man's home in the woods.
He brought her inside, and by the firelight, she died,
And he buried her, gently and good.
Oh, the morning was bright. All the world was snow-white,
But when he came to place where she lay,
His fields were ablaze with flowers on the grave
Of the girl with April in her eyes...

Oh, oh-oh, on and on she goes,
Through the winter's night, the wild wind, and the snow.
Hi, hi-hi, on and on she flies.
She is gone, the girl with April in her eyes...

I'm Not That Girl from Wicked

Hands touch, eyes meet
Sudden silence, sudden heat
Hearts leap in a giddy whirl
He could be that boy
But I'm not that girl.

Don't dream too far
Don't lose sight of who you are
Don't remember that rush of joy...
He could be that boy...
I'm not that girl.

Ev'ry so often we long to steal
To the land of What-Might-Have-Been
But that doesn't soften the ache we feel
When reality sets back in

Blithe smile, lithe limb
She who's winsome, she wins him
Gold hair with a gentle curl
That's the girl he chose
And Heaven knows
I'm not that girl:

Don't wish, don't start
Wishing only wounds the heart
I wasn't born for the rose and the pearl
There's a girl I know
He loves her so
I'm not that girl
May the Triforce be with you.

Crowded streets all cleared away, one by one
Hollow heroes separate as they run
You're so cold. Put your hand in mine
Wise men wonder while strong men die

Show me how it ends. It's all right
Show me how defenseless you really are
Satisfied and empty inside
But that's all right, let's give this another try

If you find your family, don't you cry
In this land of make-believe, dead and dry
You're so cold, but you feel alive
Lay your hands on me one last time

Show me how it ends. It's all right
Show me how defenseless you really are
Satisfied and empty inside
But that's all right, let's give this another try

Show me how it ends. It's all right
Show me how defenseless you really are
Satisfied and empty inside
But that's all right, let's give this another try

It's all right (x9)

All The Right Moves Lyrics

All the right friends in all the wrong places
So yeah, we're going down
They got all the right moves in all the right faces
So yeah, we're going down

Just paint the picture of a perfect place
They got it better than what anyone's told you
They'll be the King of Hearts, and you're the Queen of Spades
Then we'll fight for you like we were your soldiers

I know we've got it good
But they got it made
And the grass is getting greener each day
I know things are looking up
But soon they'll take us down,
before anybody's knowing our name.

They got all the right friends in all the right places
So yeah, we're going down
We've got all the right moves and all the wrong faces
So yeah, we're going down
They said, everybody knows, everybody knows where we're going
Yeah, we're going down
They said, everybody knows, everybody knows where we're going
Yeah, we're going down

Do you think I'm special?
Do you think I'm nice?
Am I bright enough to shine in your spaces?
Between the noise you hear
And the sound you like
Are we just sinking in an ocean of faces?

It can be possible that rain can fall,
Only when it's over our heads
The sun is shining everyday, but it's far away
Over the world is death.

They got,
They got,
All the right friends in all the wrong places
So yeah, we're going down
They got, all the right moves and all the wrong faces
So yeah, we're going down

They said, everybody knows, everybody knows where we're going
Yeah, we're going down
They said, everybody knows, everybody knows where we're going
Yeah, we're going down

It don't matter what you see.
I know I could never be
Someone that'll look like you.
It don't matter what you say,
I know I could never face
someone that could sound like you.

All the right friends in all the wrong places
So yeah, we're going down
They got all the right moves and all the right faces
So yeah, we're going down

All the right friends in all the wrong places
So yeah, we're going down
They got all the right moves and all the right faces
So yeah, we're going down

They said, everybody knows, everybody knows where we're going
Yeah, we're going down
They said, everybody knows, everybody knows where we're going
Yeah, we're going down.

Yeah, we're going down.
Yeah, we're going down.

(All the right moves, hey)
Yeah, we're going down
(All the right moves, hey)
Yeah, we're going down

How will I start tomorrow without you here?
Whose heart will guide me when all the answers disappear?
Is it too late? Are you too far gone to stay?
Best friends forever, should never have to go away.

What will I do? You know I'm only half without you.
How will I make it through?

If only tears could bring you back to me,
If only love could find a way.
What I would do, what I would give if you
Return to me someday, somehow, some way.
If my tears could bring you back to me.

I'd cry you an ocean if you'd sail on home again.
Waves of emotion will carry you, I know they can.
Just let love guide you, and your heart will chart the course,
And soon you'll be drifting into the arms of your true north.

Look in my eyes. You'll see a million tears have gone by,
And still they're not dry.

If only tears could bring you back to me.
If only love could find a way.
What I would do, what I would give if you
Return to me someday, somehow, some way.
If my tears could bring you back to me.

I'd hold you close and shout the words I only whispered before.
For one more chance, for one last glance,
There's not a thing that I would not endure.

If only tears could bring you back to me,
If only love could find a way.
What I would do, what I would give if you
Return to me someday, somehow, some way.
If my tears could bring you back to me.

Nothing from A Chorus Line

SPOKEN:
I'm so excited because Im gonna go to the High School of Performing
Arts, I mean I was dying to be a serious actress. Anyway, its our
first day acting class and were in the auditorium and the teacher,
Mr. Karp, puts us upon the stage with our legs around everybody, one
in back of the other, and he says: Okay, were gonna do
improvisations...Now, youre on a bobsled and its snowing out and
its cold... Okay, go!


Evryday for a week we would try to feel the motion,
Feel the motion down the hill.
Ev'ry day for a week we would try to hear the wind rush
Hear the wind rush, feel the chill
And I dug right down to the bottom of my soul
To see what I had inside.
Yes, I dug right down to the bottom of my soul
And I tried, I tried!

And everybody''s goin' Woosh! Woosh!
I feel the snow, I feel the cold, I feel the air...
And Mr. Karp turns to me and he says:
Okay, Morales, what did you feel?
And I said...


Nothing, I'm feeling nothing,
And he says nothing could get a girl transferred.
They all felt something, but I felt nothing
Except the feeling that this bulls*** was absurd!

But I said to myself,
Hey, its only the first week. Maybe its genetic,
They dont have bobsleds in San Juan!


Second week, more advanced,
And we had to be a table,
Be a sportscar,
Ice-cream cone.
Mister Karp, he would say,
Very good, except Morales! Try, Morales, all alone.
And I dug right down to the bottom of my soul
To see how an ice cream felt...
Yes, I dug right down to the bottom of my soul
And I tried to melt!

The kids yelled, Nothing!
They called me Nothing
And Karp allowed it, which really makes me burn.
The were so helpful, they called me hopeless,
Until I really didnt know where else to turn.

And Karp kept saying,
Morales, I think you should transfer to Girls High,
Youll never be an actress, Never!
Jesus Christ!


Went to church, praying, Santa Maria,
Send me guidance,
Send me guidance on my knees.
Went to church praying, Santa Maria,
Help me feel it,
Help me feel it pretty please.
And a voice from down at the bottom of my soul
Came up to the top of my head
And a voice from down at the bottom of my soul,
Here is what it said:

This man is nothing!
This course is nothing!
If you want something go find another class.
And when you find one
Youll be an actress.
And I assure you thats what finlly came to pass.

Six months later I heard that Karp had died.
And I dug right down to the bottom of my soul
And cried...
'Cos I felt.... nothing.
May the Triforce be with you.

"New Fang" by Them Crooked Vultures


New fang,
No thang.
Had it made
To parade,
Found a sucker,
Now I want another.

Stand up,
Step aside,
Open wide,
Handing out and on
Until the feelings gone

Want to?
Yes, I do.
Wanna learn,
Taking turns getting carpet burns.

Loose lips,
Lipstick spit.
Come or go,
I think it's both I gotta know.

Sometimes you break a finger on the upper hand,
I think you've got me confused with a better man.
Sometimes you break a finger on the upper hand,
I know you've got me confused...

For a better man.

No slack,
Cadillac,
Couldn't quit,
Gums flap so
Here's your teeth back

Accept
What I left
Far behind in a time
When my mind was like a landmine.

Tailgate,
By the lake,
Too much, too young,
Every button gonna come undone.

Tightrope,
No joke,
Nothing left,
So you go baroque.

Sometimes you break a finger on the upper hand,
I think you've got me confused with a better man.
Sometimes you break a finger on the upper hand,
I know you've got me confused...

New fang, passing over
No point waiting around for

New fang passing over
No more waiting around-ah

New fang, New fang
They can't wait, no-oh

New fang, newwwwww

Am I loud and clear, or am I breaking up?
Am I still your charm, or am I just back luck?
Are we getting closer, or are we just getting more lost?

I'll show you mine if you show me yours first.
Let's compare scars. I'll tell you whose is worse.
Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words.

We live on front porches and swing life away.
We get by just fine here on minimum wage.
If love is a labor, I'll slave 'til the end.
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand.

I've been here so long, think that it's time to move.
The winter's so cold, summer's over too soon,
So let's pack our bags and settle down where palm trees grow.

I've got some friends, some that I hardly know,
But we've had some times I wouldn't trade for the world.
We chase these days down with talks of the places we will go.

We live on front porches and swing life away.
We get by just fine here on minimum wage.
If love is a labor, I'll slave 'til the end.
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand.

Swing life away, swing life away,
Swing life away, swing life away.

"Swing Life Away"
