Right Kind of Wrong - LeAnn Rimes









Well, he was more like, just plain old wrong, rather than the right kind of wrong....






Know all about
About your reputation
And how it's bound to be a heartbreak situation
But I can't help it if I'm helpless
Every time that I'm where you are

You walk in and my strength walks out the door
Say my name and I can't fight it anymore
Oh I know, I should go
But I need your touch just too damn much

Loving you
isn't really something I should do
Shouldn't wanna spend my time with you
I should try to be strong
But baby you're the right kind of wrong
baby you're the right kind of wrong

Might be a mistake
A mistake I'm making
But what you're giving I am happy to be taking
Cause no one's ever made me feelThe way I feel when
I'm in your arms

They say you're something I should do without
They don't know what goes on when the lights go out
There's no way to explain
All the pleasure is worth all the pain

Loving you
isn't really something I should do
Shouldn't wanna spend my time with you
Well, I should try to be strong
But baby you're the right kind of wrong
Yeah baby you're the right kind of wrong

I should try to run
But I just can't seem to
'Cause every time
I run you're the one I run to
Can't do without
what you do to me
I don't care if I'm in too deep

Know all about
About your reputation
And how its' bound to be a heartbreak situation
But I can't help it if I'm helpless
Every time that I'm where you are

You walk in and my strength walks out the door
Say my name and I can't fight it anymore
Oh I know, I should go
But I need your touch
just too damn much

Loving you
Isn't really something I should do
Shouldn't wanna spend myh time with you
Well I should try to be strong
But baby you're the right kind of wrong
Yeah baby you're the right kind of wrong

Man of Golden Words - Mother Love Bone






This song gives me chills every time I listen to it. Without Mother Love Bone, there would be no Pearl Jam.




Wanna show you something
Like the joy inside my heart
Seems I've been living in
The Temple of the Dog

Where would I live
If I were a man of golden words
Or would I live
At all

Words and music
My only tools
Communication

And on her arrival I will set free the birds
It's a pretty time of year
When the mountains sing out loud

Tell me Mr. Golden Words
How's about the world
Tell me can you tell me
At all

Words and music
My only tools
Communication

Let's fall
In love with music
The driving force
Of our living

The only
International language
Devine glory
The expression

The knees bow
The tongue confesses

The lord of lords
The king of kings
The king of kings, oh yeah

Words and music
My only tools
Communication
Words and music
Oh yeah, yeah
Communication


Drifting - Pearl Jam







Oh Eddie, why is it you always know how I feel?





Drifting, drifting, drifting away
I got myself a mansion
Then I gave it away
It's not the world that's heavy
Just the things that you save
And I'm drifting, drifting away

Drifting, drifting, drifting along

I rid myself of worries
And my worries were gone
I only run when I want to
And I sleep like a dog
And I'm drifting, drifting along

The suitcoats say, "There is money to be made."
They get so excited, nothing gets in their way
My road it may be lonely
Just because it's not paved
It's good for drifting, drifting away

Drifting, drifting, drifting, uh huh
I feel like going back there
But never for long
Sometimes wonder if they know that I'm gone
And I'm drifting, drifting along

Drifting, drifting along
Drifting, drifting along

After All These Years - silverchair






One more for good measure. I can so relate to this song, especially the last part





Breathe in the night
That crushed a tired sunrise
Born again the day
Brings young naivete

A laptop souvenir
Is worth it's weight in
Silver and golden sun
You'll be home again
And I'll be home again

Mend in my sleep
I'm boxing under water
Waddle on the wake
Waking on the summer day
A summer day

After all these years
Forget about the troubled times
After all these years
Forget about the troubled times

Every father's pain
Casts a shadow over a broken son
You'll be whole again
And I'll be whole again

Inefficient
Artless anesthetic
Playing like a scared
enthusiastic pawn

After all these years
Forget about the troubled times
After all these years
Forget about the troubled times
the troubled times

All these years
I was hurting to feel
Something more than life

After all these years
Forget about the troubled times
After all these years
Forget about the troubled times
After all these years
Forget about the troubled times
the troubled times

All these years
I was hurting to feel
Something more than life

Without You - silverchair






This is an incredible song from an incredible album, Diorama. Everyone should hear this album at least once in their life; it's indescribably beautiful. Daniel Johns is a musical genius, in every sense of the word.








Miles away
There's hopeless smiles brighter than mine
And I need for you to come and go
Without the truth falling out

Old incisions
Refusing to stay
Like sun through the trees
On a cloudy day

You brighten my life
Like a polystyrene hat
But it melts in the sun
Like a life without love
But I've waited for you so
I'll keep holding on
Without you

Telephone
Socially scared and impaired
If the trees will bloom
The wind can blow
Without the fruit falling out

Old incisions
Refusing to stay
Like sun through the trees
On a cloudy day

You brighten my life
Like a polystyrene hat
But it melts in the sun
Like a life without love
But I've waited for you so
I'll keep holding on
Without you
Without you

Feels like the wind blows
Holding you with us
She takes no other
False light and ashes
Blooming like winter

You brighten my life
Like a polystyrene hat
But it melts in the sun
Like a life without love
But I've waited for you so
I'll keep holding on
Without you
Without you
Without you

Downfall - Matchbox Twenty



God I love this song. It's best to listen with your eyes closed.....









Wonder how you sleep
I wonder what you think of me
If I could go back
Would you have ever been with me

I want you to be unused
I want you to remember
I want you to believe in me
I want you on my side

Come on and lay it down
I’ve always been with you
Here and now
Give all that’s within you
Be my savior
And I’ll be your downfall

Here we go again
Ashamed of being broken in
We’re getting off track
I wanna get you back again

I want you to trouble me
I wanted you to linger
I want you to agree with me
I want so much so bad

Come on and lay it down
I’ve always been with you
Here and now
Give all that’s within you
Be my savior
And I’ll be your downfall
Yeah, be my savior

only love can save us now
don’t lay me down
only love can save us now
I’ll be your downfall
ah, love can save us now
don’t save me now

Lay it down
I’ve always been with you
Hear me now
With all that’s within you
Be my savior
And I’ll be your downfall

Now I’m back on my own
Hear my feet, they’re made of stone
Man, I make you go where I go
Well hell, you, can I take you home
Well, I’m coming home on my back
Kissing me, your lips painted black

Saying
Let me be your downfall
Let me be your downfall, baby

Hold On - Pearl Jam




Eddie Vedder is a lyrical genius, and this is one example of his genius...














I was drawn
Riding atop a black horse
Whatever prize there was
Could only observe

Where the trouble starts
Where does it end?
How can I be cured
How, before it ends
I know... life would be different if I... held on
Held on
I know... I could be something if I... held on

Gave her life away
Put it in my pocket
When it should have been framed
Oh, I lost it's shine
Gotta get this outta my head
Out of my heed

How could it end
End like this
How could it end

I know, life would be different had I... held on
Held on
I know, I could be something had I... held on
Held on.
I know, I could be something if I... held on
Held on
I know... life would be different if I... held on
Held on
Held on
Held on
If I...Held on
Held on

Everything - Lifehouse











Find me here
And speak to me
I want to feel you
I need to hear you

You are the light
That's leading me
To the place
Where I find peace
Again

You are the strength
That keeps me walking
You are the hope
That keeps me trusting

You are the light
Into my soul
You are my purpose
You're everything

How can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Would you tell me
How could it be
Any better than this

You calm the storms
And you give me rest
You hold me in your hands
You won't let me fall

You steal my heart
And you take my breath away
Would you take me in
Take me deeper now

How can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be
Any better than this

And how can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be
Any better than this

Cause you're all I want
You're all I need
You're everything
Everything

You're all I want
You're all I need
You're everything
Everything

You're all I want
You're all I need
You're everything
Everything

You're all I want
You're all I need
Everything
Everything

And how can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Would you tell me
How could it be
Any better than this

How can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Would you tell me
How could it be any better
Any better than this

Would you tell me
How could it be any better
Any better than this



Too Much of Not Enough - silverchair










Another brilliant Daniel Johns creation








She tripped on a hole
That I'd dug in the soil to be part
Of a human garden

And I couldn't stand
In the straight postured sun
But you stood in the mud
Which came unsoiled
When I came along
When I came along
When I came along

So you never stop needing
You never stop needing

A close look at someone so close
Too much of not enough
A close look at someone so close
Too much of not enough
When all we need is just a taste

I strap myself in for a safe saccaride
Before it started I tried
To be anything I saw fit
And it all seemed to fit

But you came undone
When I came along
When I came along
When I came along

So you never stop needing
You never stop needing
A close look at someone so close
Too much of not enough
A close look at someone so close
Too much of not enough
When all we need is just a taste

Blind white lies and shallow truth
Broken strings and stolen youth
I've seen too much of not enough

You came much closer than they had before
You came much closer than they had before
You came much closer than they had before
You came much closer than they had before

You never stop needing
You never stop needing
You never stop needing
And it's good for nothing

Addicted - Kelly Clarkson














It's like you're a drug
It's like you're a demon I can't face down
It's like I'm stuck
It's like I'm running from you all the time
And I know
I let you have all the power
It's like the only company I seek is misery all around

It's like you're a leech
Sucking the life from me
It's like I can't breathe
Without you inside of me
And I know
I let you have all the power
And I realize I'm never gonna quit you over time

It's like I can't breathe
It's like I can't see anything
Nothing but you
I'm addicted to you
It's like I can't think
Without you interrupting me
In my thoughts
In my dreams
You've taken over me
It's like I'm not me
It's like I'm not me

It's like I'm lost
It's like I'm giving up slowly
It's like you're a ghost that's haunting me
Leave me alone
And I know these voices in my head
Are mine alone
And I know I'll never change my ways
If I don't give you up now

It's like I can't breathe
It's like I can't see anything
Nothing but you
I'm addicted to you
It's like I can't think
Without you interrupting me
In my thoughts
In my dreams
You've taken over me
It's like I'm not me
It's like I'm not me

I'm hooked on you
I need a fix
I can't take it
Just one more hit
I promise I can deal with it
I'll handle it, quit it
Just one more time
Then that's it
Just a little bit more to get me through this

I'm hooked on you
I need a fix
I can't take it
Just one more hit
I promise I can deal with it
I'll handle it, quit it
Just one more time
Then that's it
Just a little bit more to get me through this

It's like I can't breathe
It's like I can't see anything
Nothing but you
I'm addicted to you
It's like I can't think
Without you interrupting me
In my thoughts
In my dreams
You've taken over me
It's like I'm not me
It's like I'm not me
