bands that really get it

I've been listening to this. I think it applies!

The Ghost Inside Engine 45 Lyrics

Grab a hold of me
I've got my arms up
Pull me up from this darkness
It's so hard for me to see light at the end of the tunnel

If it's a war you came to see
You will never see a waved white flag in front of me
I can't end up dead, I won't be mislead
I'll keep singing this song inside my head

My feelings rise, on your demise
Do I have to put your name on this grave?
I'll give you one more shot
This addiction came like a freight train (oh)
You're coming off of the rails again
It's hard for you to see the light at the end of the tunnel

If it's a war you came to see
You will never see a waved white flag in front of me
I can't handle that, I won't be this way
I'll keep singing this song inside my head

If it's a war you came to see
You will never see a waved white flag in front of me
I can't end up dead, I won't be mislead
I'll keep singing this song inside my head
On a one way course set for destruction
Full speed ahead
The time has come for you to start things over
Hold on, full speed ahead

All my life, I've been waiting for something
That never came, it never came, but I'm still singing
All my life I've been searching for something
To break these chains, to break these chains, But I'll keep swinging

All my life, I've been waiting for something
That never came, it never came, but I'm still singing
All my life I've been searching for something
To break these chains, to break these chains, But I'll keep swinging

All my life, I've been waiting for something
That never came, it never came, but I'm still singing
All my life I've been searching for something
To break these chains, to break these chains, But I'll keep swinging

All my life, I've been waiting for something
That never came, it never came, but I'm still singing
All my life I've been searching for something
To break these chains, to break these chains, But I'll keep swinging

Beauty From Pain - Superchick

Has a couple meanings but I thought it was appropriate



"Beauty From Pain"

The lights go out all around me
One last candle to keep out the night
And then the darkness surrounds me
I know I'm alive but I feel like I've died
And all that's left is to accept that it's over
My dreams ran like sand through the fists that I made
I try to keep warm but I just grow colder
I feel like I'm slipping away

After all this has passed, I still will remain
After I've cried my last, there'll be beauty from pain
Though it won't be today, someday I'll hope again
And there'll be beauty from pain
You will bring beauty from my pain

My whole world is the pain inside me
The best I can do is just get through the day
When life before is only a memory
I'll wonder why God lets me walk through this place
And though I can't understand why this happened
I know that I will when I look back someday
And see how you've brought beauty from ashes
And made me as gold purified through these flames

After all this has passed, I still will remain
After I've cried my last, there'll be beauty from pain
Though it won't be today, someday I'll hope again
And there'll be beauty from pain
You will bring beauty from my pain

Here I am at the end of me (at the end of me)
Tryin' to hold to what I can't see (to what I can't see)
I forgot how to hope
This night's been so long
I cling to Your promise
There will be a dawn

After all this has passed, I still will remain
After I've cried my last, there'll be beauty from pain
Though it won't be today, someday I'll hope again
And there'll be beauty from pain
You will bring beauty from my pain

Or of course the new song Dark Side

There's a place that i know
it's not pretty there and few have ever gone
if i show it to you now
will it make you run away

or will you stay
even if it hurts
even if i try to push you out
will you return?
and remind me who i really am
please remind me who i really am

everybody's got a dark side
do you love me?
can you love mine?
nobody's a picture perfect
but we're worth it
you know that we're worth it
will you love me?
even with my dark side?

like a diamond
from black dust
it's hard to know
what can become
If you give up
so don't give up on me
please remind me who i really am
[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/dark-side...-clarkson.html ]

everybody's got a dark side
do you love me?
can you love mine?
nobody's a picture perfect
but we're worth it
you know that we're worth it
will you love me?
even with my dark side?

don't run away
don't run away
just tell me that you will stay
promise me you will stay
don't run away
don't run away
just promise me you will stay
promise me you will stay

will you love me? ohh

everybody's got a dark side
do you love me?
can you love mine?
nobody's a picture perfect
but we're worth it
you know that we're worth it
will you love me?
even with my dark side?

Never Surrender

Do you know what it's like when
You're scared to see yourself?
Do you know what it's like when
You wish you were someone else
Who didn't need your help to get by?

Do you know what it's like
To wanna surrender?

I don't wanna feel like this tomorrow
I don't wanna live like this today
Make me feel better, I wanna feel better
Stay with me here now and never surrender
Never surrender

Do you know what it's like when
You're not who you wanna be?
Do you know what it's like to
Be your own worst enemy
Who sees the things in me I can't hide?

Do you know what it's like
To wanna surrender?

I don't wanna feel like this tomorrow
I don't wanna live like this today
Make me feel better, I wanna feel better
Stay with me here now and never surrender

Make me feel better, you make me feel better
You make me feel better, put me back together

I don't wanna feel like this tomorrow
I don't wanna live like this today
Make me feel better, I need to feel better
Stay with me here now and never surrender

Put me back together
Never surrender, make me feel better
You make me feel better
Stay with me here now and never surrender
