Perfect
["Adore", 1998]

I know
We're just like old friends
We just can't pretend
That lovers make amends

We are
reasons so unreal
We can't help but feel
That something has been lost

But please
You know you're just like me
Next time
I promise we'll be

Perfect
Perfect
Perfect
Strangers down the line
Lovers out of time
Memories unwind

So far
I still know who you are
But now
I wonder who I was

Angel, you know it's not the end
We'll always be good friends
The letters have been sent on

So please
You always were so free
You'll see
I promise we'll be

Perfect
Perfect
Strangers when we meet
Strangers on the street
Lovers while we sleep

Perfect
You know this has to be
We always were so free
We promised that we'd be

Perfect
Perfect
Perfect

Snow Patrol
Chasing cars
["Eyes open", 2006]

We'll do it all
Everything
On our own
We don't need
Anything
Or anyone

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel

Those three words
I said too much
They're not enough

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads

I need your grace
to remind me
to find my own

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see

I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Slipknot
Spit it out
["Slipknot", 1999]
 
Since you never gave a damn in the first place
Maybe it's time you had the tables turned
Cuz in the interest of all involved I got the problem solved
And the verdict is guilty...
 
...MAN NEARLY KILLED ME
Steppin' where you fear to tread
Stop, drop and roll - you were DEAD FROM THE GIT-GO!
BIG MOUTH FUCKER - STUPID COCKSUCKER
Are you scared of me now? Then you're dumber than I thought
Always is, never was
Foundation made of piss and vinegar
Step to me, I'll smear ya -Think I fear ya? BULLSHIT!
Just another dumb punk chompin' at this tit
Is there any way to break through the noise?
Was it something that I said that got you bent?
It's gotta be that way if you want it
Sanity, Literal Profanity HIT ME!
 
SPIT - IT OUT
All you wanna do is drag me down
All I wanna do is stamp you out
 
Maybe it's the way you spread a lotta rumour fodder
Keepin' all your little spies and leavin' when you realise
Step up, fairy
I guess it's time to bury your ass with the chrome
Straight to the dome
You heard me right, bitch, I didn't stutter
If you know what's good - sit, shut up and beg, brother
Backstab - Don't you know who you're dissin'?
Side swipe - we know THE ASS THAT YOU'RE KISSIN'!
BIGIDY-BIGGIDY BITCH BOY, HALFWAY HAUSER
Can't hear shit cuz I keep gettin' louder
Step up, and you get a face full o' tactic
Lippin' off hard, goin' home in a basket
You got no pull, no power, no NUTHIN'
Now you start shit? Well, ain't that somethin'?
Payoffs don't protect, and you can't hide if you want
But I'LL FIND YOU - Comin' up behind you!
 
SPIT - IT OUT
All you wanna do is drag me down
All I wanna do is stamp you out
 
'Bout time I set this record straight
All the needlenose punchin' is makin' me irate
Sick o' my bitchin' fallin' on deaf ears
Where YOU gonna be in the next five years?
The crew and all the fools, and all the politix
Get your lips ready, gonna gag, gonna make you sick
You got DICK when they passed out the good stuff
Bam
Are you sick of me? GOOD ENOUGH - HAD ENOUGH
 
FUCK ME! I'm all out of enemies!
FUCK ME! I'm all out of enemas!
 
SPIT - IT OUT
All you wanna do is drag me down
All I wanna do is stamp you out
