"Blackout" lyrics
"Blackout"
Keeping my thoughts under wraps tonight
Keeping my feelings to myself
I'm already broken hearted
So let's get this party started
The darkness comes with you
With longing and desire
Your anger burns inside your eyes
They flash like burning coal
Get out your head, get out your head
Try not to think, be cool, be calm, be fake
Dumb yourself down, numb yourself out
Fake it till you make it break
Make the world black out
All the hurt you nurse inside
You'd better cough it up
Beautiful like shards of glass
In your throat they'll cut you up
Get out your head, get out your head
Try not to think, be cool, be calm, be fake
Dumb yourself down, numb yourself out
Fake it till you make it break
Make the world black out
That was such a wicked thing to say
That was such a spiteful thing to do
You smile as the words spew out your mouth
So I laugh in your face right back at you
There's no reward for men who weep
No medals given out
But better be the one who speaks
Than be the man who won't
(You, and you, and you, and you)
Get out your head, get out your head
Try not to think, be cool, be calm, be fake
Dumb yourself down, numb yourself out
Fake it till you make it break
Make the world black out
We all blackout
We all blackout
We all blackout
We all blackout
We all blackout

Sneaker Pimps - "Low Place Like Home" You walked all over, in your blunderstones
In your own road movie, with your one armed man
Gonna make it to the problem page
Trouble-shoot your life
Gonna make it to the problem page

Editors - "Forgiveness" Forgiveness makes fools
Of all of us
Alone to face a hostile place
A moment's peace ain't coming
The constant cold cracking your bones
The stench of life worth living
The line in the sand ain't...
A Perfect Circle - "Judith" You're such an inspiration for the ways
That I will never, ever choose to be
Oh, so many ways for me to show you
How your savior has abandoned you
Fuck your God
Your Lord, your Christ, He did this...

One, two

Spitting in a wishing well
Blown to hell
Crash
On the last splash
I know you, little libertine
I know you're a real koo koo
(Hey now)
Want you
Koo koo...
Soundgarden - "Fell On Black Days" Whatsoever I've feared has come to light
And whatsoever I've fought off became my life
Just when every day seemed to greet me with a smile
Sunspots have faded
Now I'm doing time
Now I'm doing time...
