All the madness in the world

Well there was a time when life caught you by surprise.
What you see going by is a shadow.
You’ve got to live in front of your eyes.
In a typical way we stray, checking back with the past.
In a typical day we’ll stay to see what’s gonna last.
But I didn’t mind at all.

Here’s To You, O.A.R.

Tryin’ to be perfect
Tryin’ not to let you down…yeah
Honesty is honestly the hardest thing for me right now…yeah
While the floors underneath our feet are crumbling
The walls we built together tumblin’
I still stand here holdin’ up the roof
Cause it’s easier than telling the truth.

Kris Allen

Taking on the world today
You’re by my side it helps to be crazy
Taking on the world today
Don’t you ever get tired of being so lazy
Taking on the world today
Slow down the pace, life is amazing
We’re taking on the world today

O.A.R.

I wanna take you with me to life with no more yesterdays
We can start again awake and so excited
And change the way we always push
We always pull

I’ll open up and be your parachute
And I’ll never let you down
So open up and be my human angel
And we’ll only hit the ground running

And when the world gets sharp and tries to cut you down to size
And makes you feel like giving in
Oh, I will stay, I will rain, I will wash the words and pain away
And I will chase away the way we push, the way we pull
You’re beautiful

I’ll open up and be your parachute
And I’ll never let you down
So open up and be my human angel
And we’ll only hit the ground running, running

And if it feels like we might drop
It will stop, so don’t look down
It wouldn’t be the same without you
This life is too good to give up on

I’ll open up and be your parachute
And I’ll never let you down
So open up and be my human angel
And we’ll only hit the ground
And we’re gonna hit the ground running, running

Parachute (Alternate Version), Train

There’s a world we’ve never seen
There’s still hope between the dreams
The weight of it all
Could blow away with a breeze
If you’re waiting on the wind
Don’t forget to breathe
Cause as the darkness gets deeper
We’ll be sinkin as we reach for love
At least somethin we could hold
But I’ll reach to you from where time just cant go

All At Once, Jack Johnson

‘Cause I don’t wanna wait until tomorrow
To tell you how I feel the rest of my life
You don’t wanna waste another minute when you realize
Walking on the dark side of the evening
Maybe it was you that opened my eyes
Burning like a fire on the water the city of black and white
Won’t you just stay? Won’t you just stay?

Mat Kearney

“This is the moment in the concert where we show you just how good our band really could be, and we ask you please to welcome the singing abilities of Mr. William Champion.”

If sweet death should ever come for me
Let me know, boys, let me know
If you hear him coming, won’t you let me flee
Let me go, boys, let me go 

One day death is gonna conquer me
I’ll be down where the waters flow
I hope sweet heaven is the place for me
Let me know, boys, let me know

If sweet death should ever come for me
Take me down to some place below
If you hear him coming won’t you set me free
Let me go, boys, let me go 

If you hear him coming, won’t you sing for me?
That I just don’t want to go.

Death Will Never Conquer, Will Champion (Coldplay - Live)

I don’t wanna be someone who walks away so easily
I’m here to stay and make the difference that I can make
Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use
The tools and gifts we got yeah, we got a lot at stake
And in the end, you’re still my friend at least we did intend
For us to work we didn’t break, we didn’t burn
We had to learn how to bend without the world caving in
I had to learn what I’ve got, and what I’m not
And who I am

I Won’t Give Up, Jason Mraz

Come up to meet you, tell you I’m sorry
You don’t know how lovely you are
I had to find you, tell you I need you
Tell you I set you apart
Tell me your secrets, and ask me your questions
Oh let’s go back to the start
Running in circles, coming up tails
Heads on a science apart

Nobody said it was easy
It’s such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh, take me back to the start.

I was just guessing at numbers and figures
Pulling the puzzles apart
Questions of science, science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart
And tell me you love me, come back and haunt me
Oh and I rush to the start
Running in circles, chasing our tails
Coming back as we are

Nobody said it was easy
Oh it’s such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
I’m going back to the start

Ooooohhhhhhh [x4]

The Scientist, Coldplay

This song gets me every time. 

I hopelessly, helplessly, wonder why
Everything gotta change around me
I’d tell it to your face
But you lost your face along the way
And I’d say it on the phone
If I thought you were alone
Why do things have to change?

Hopeless, Train

I get the feeling we’re so misdirected
I get the feeling we have lost control
Til then I’ll turn you to the new religion
We’re dropping out into the so unknown

Drop Out - The So Unknown, Jack’s Mannequin

She said, “When you’re tired of aiming your arrows
Still you never hit the mark
Even in your rains and shadows
Still we’re never going to part
Come on baby

Don’t let it break your heart

Coldplay 

I need to push through the undiscovered
Find my answers, leave them uncovered
I wanna speak out what I believe in
That love will heal us, give us our freedom

I need to know what’s on the horizon
Change directions, stop the fighting
I need to find a way of letting it go
When everything falls apart

Phoenix Burn, Alpha Rev
