Lonely in Gorgeous by Tommy Febuary6

I dashed out at 0 o’clock in the morning
I kicked the door open
My glass slippers shattered
And my dress tore, too

Hey, aren’t you shocked?
Even if I chased after you, you wouldn’t come
My tears overflow and I can’t run anymore…

It just might be jealousy… It’s-so-pain-ful…!!

“Lonely in Gorgeous” yeah…
Party night… I’m breaking my heart
I want you to find me immediately and embrace me

The headlights shine
…where are you bad boy?
Wipe away my tears with the scarf of love
I can’t see anything

I want to scrape up stardust
And hurl it at you
Why do you care?
And yet you are only able to love yourself…

I just might be falling out of love… Is it for real…?!

“Lonely in Gorgeous” yeah…
Party time…won’t bury that

Brown Eyes- Lady GaGa

What time is it?

In your brown eyes, walked away
In your brown eyes, couldn't stay
In your brown eyes, you watch her go

And turn the record on
And wonder what went wrong 
What went wrong

If everything was everything
But everything is over
Everything could be everything
If only we were older

Guess its just a silly song about you
And how i lost you
And your brown eyes

In your brown eyes, i was feeling low
'cause they're brown eyes and you never know
Got some brown eyes, but a soft face

I knew that it was wrong
So baby, turn the record on
Play that song

Where everything was everything
But everything is over
Everything could be everything
If only we were older

Guess its just a silly song about you
And how i lost you
And your brown eyes

Everything was everything
But baby its the last show
Everything could be everything
But it's time to say goodbye so
Get your last fix, and your last hit
Grab your old girl with her new tricks

Honey yeah, it's no surprise
I got lost in your brown eyes

In your brown eyes
Brown, brown eyes
Your brown eyes
Brown, brown eyes
Got some brown eyes
Brown, brown eyes
Brown eyes

GlaDos- Still Alive

This was a triumph
I'm making a note here
HUGE SUCCESS
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction
Aperture Science

We do what we must because we can
For the good of all of us except for the ones who are dead
but there's no sense crying over every mistake
You just keep trying until you run out of cake
and the science gets done and you make a neat gun
for the people who are still alive

I'm not even angry
I'm being so sincere right now
Even though you broke my heart and killed me
And tore it into pieces
and threw every piece into a fire
As they burned it hurt because I was so happy for you!!
Now these points of data make a wonderful line
and we're releasing out of beta, we're releasing on time
So I'm glad I got burned
Think of all the things we learned for the people who are still alive

Go ahead and leave me
I think I prefer to stay inside
Maybe you'll find someone else to help you
Maybe Black Mesa
That was a joke, haha, fat chance
Anyway this cake is great, it's so delicious and moist
Look at me still talking, when there's science to do
When I look out there it makes me glad that I'm not you
I've experiments to run, there is research to be done
on the people who are still alive

And believe I am still alive
I'm doing science and I'm still alive
I feel Fantastic and I'm still alive
While you are dying I'll be still alive
and when you're dead I'll be still alive
Still alive, still alive

Epiphany- Sweeney Todd

No I had him!
His throat was there beneath my hand.
I had swear I had him!
His throat was there and now he'll never come again.
When? Why do I wait?
You told me to wait-
Now he'll never come again.
There's a hole in the world like a great black pit
And it's filled with people who are filled with shit
And the vermin of the world inhabit it.
But not for long...

They all deserve to die.
Tell you why, Mrs. Lovett, tell you why.
Because in all of the whole human race
Mrs. Lovett, there are two kinds of men and only two
There's the one they put in his proper place
And the one with his foot in the other one's face
Look at me , Mrs. Lovett, look at you.

Now we all deserve to die
Tell you why, Mrs. Lovett, tell you why.
Because the lives of the wicked should be made brief
For the rest of us death will be a relief
We all deserve to die.

And I'll never see Joanna
No I'll never hold my girl to me - finished!
Alright! You sir, how about a shave?
Come and visit your good friend Sweeney.
You sir, you sir? Welcome to the grave.

I will have vengenance.
I will have salvation.
Who sir, you sir?
No one in the chair, come on! Come on!
Sweeney's waiting. I want you bleeders.
You sir, anybody.
Gentlemen don't be shy!

Not one man, no, not ten men. 
Nor a hundred can assuage me-
I will have you!
And I will get him back even as he gloats
In the meantime I'll practice on less honourable throats.
And my lucy lies in ashes
And I'll never see my girl again.

But the work waits!
I'm alive at last!
And I'm full of joy!

Modern Swinger- Pink Spiders

Shes out of luck and out of hope and out of cigarettes
misunderstood with naked pictures on the internet
her social deviance is teasing me I know what I want

and Im really gonna really let her know (woah)
that I like her but I just dont care enough
to fool around with love

yeah my babys pretty as a car crash
sexy as the stinger of a hornet in your arm
just another modern swinger
screaming catch me if you can with a cigarette in hand
and it’s love
its heavy and it hurts and its love

strung out on blow she doesnt know why shes not feeling good
dropped out of school and now shes moving out to Hollywood
her reckless decadence is taking things a little too far

and Im really gonna really let her know (woah)
that I like her but I just dont care enough
to fool around with love

yeah my babys pretty as a car crash subtle as a splinter
yeah my babys smooth as sandpaper warm just like the winter
screaming catch me if you can with a cigarette in hand
and its love
its heavy and it hurts and its love

staring at my shoes thinking of something to say
but nothings better than what silence is saying
when every time I turn around shes always looking away
its just the nature of the game that we're playing

And I think I’m tapping out,
I think I’m gonna skip the title bout

Demons Away- Matt Skiba

I know you're alone
In the dark, all alone
Underneath the covers
Hiding from the demons
That came for your soul.

They might be over in the closet
They might be underneath your bed
They might be just outside your window, baby
Or maybe just inside your head.

But if you let me stay over
I'll try to keep you safe
I've got an army of skeletons
To chase your demons away.

I know that you're scared
You're in the dark, so scared
Simply terrified, no one'll hear you screaming
If they could would they care?

There's only one way to find out
I pray that day never comes
For that would mean the ending of you, baby
The end of you, my love.

But if you let me stay over
I'll try to keep you safe
I've got an army of skeletons
To chase your demons away.

And baby, I can tell you've been crying
Oh baby, I know you've been lying to me
Yes indeed.
Oh baby, I can tell you don't sleep no more
Oh baby, believe me I've been there before.

If you let me stay over
I'll try to keep you safe
I've got an army of skeletons
To chase your demons away.

Dear Jamie...Sincerly, me- HelloGoodbye

Dear Jamie, I've got a letter I would like to send.
It's lacking strings of words with punctuation at the ends.

But should I trust this dialect,
To convey the right effect?

Dear Jamie, I've got some things I'd like to set in pen.
I would have used a pencil but leads just not permanent.

But should I trust my printer's ink,
To express the things I think?

Every page I tried my best to think of something to contest;
With inside jokes and other folks who've got much more to say.

Dear Jamie, this envelope will represent my heart.
I'll seal it send it off and wish it luck with its depart.

And this stamp will be every action that carried my affection:
Across the air and land and sea.

But should I trust the postage due,
To deliver my heart to you?

Every page I tried my best to think of something to contest;
With inside jokes and other folks who've got much more to say.

Every page I tried my best to fill with something to contest;
With inside jokes and other folks who've got much more to say.

I'll give you all I can,
A flower and a hand.
I hope this helps you see.
Signed, sincerely me.

Extraodinary Machine- Fiona Apple

I certainly haven't been shopping for any new shoes
-And-
I certainly haven't been spreading myself around
I still only travel by foot and by foot, it's a slow climb,
But I'm good at being uncomfortable, so
I can't stop changing all the time

I notice that my opponent is always on the go
-And-
Won't go slow, so's not to focus, and I notice
He'll hitch a ride with any guide, as long as
They go fast from whence he came
- But he's no good at being uncomfortable, so
He can't stop staying exactly the same

If there was a better way to go then it would find me
I can't help it, the road just rolls out behind me
Be kind to me, or treat me mean
I'll make the most of it, I'm an extraordinary machine

I seem to you to seek a new disaster every day
You deem me due to clean my view and be at piece and lay
I mean to prove I mean to move in my own way, and say,
I've been getting along for long before you came into the play

I am the baby of the family, it happens, so
- Everybody cares and wears the sheeps' clothes
While they chaperone
Curious, you looking down your nose at me, while you appease
- Courteous, to try and help - but let me set your
Mind at ease

If there was a better way to go then it would find me
I can't help it, the road just rolls out behind me
Be kind to me, or treat me mean
I'll make the most of it, I'm an extraordinary machine


-Do I so worry you, you need to hurry to my side?
-It's very kind
But it's to no avail; I don't want the bail
I promise you, everything will be just fine

If there was a better way to go then it would find me
I can't help it, the road just rolls out behind me
Be kind to me, or treat me mean
I'll make the most of it, I'm an extraordinary machine

Dangerous Game- Jekyll and Hyde

LUCY:
I feel your fingers -
Cold on my shoulder -
Your chilling touch,
As it runs down my spine -
Watching your eyes
As they invade my soul -
Forbidden pleasures
I'm afraid to make mine.

At the touch of your hand -
At the sound of your voice -
At the moment your eyes meet mine -
I am out of my mind -
I am out of control -
Full of feelings I can't define!

HYDE:
It's a sin with a name -

LUCY:
Like a hand in a flame -

HYDE:
And our senses proclaim

HYDE/LUCY:
It's a dangerous game!

HYDE:
A darker dream -
That has no ending -
That's so unreal
You believe that it's true!
A dance of death -
Out of a mystery tale -
The frightened princess
Doesn't know what to do!
Will the ghosts go away? -

LUCY:
No -

HYDE:
Will she will them to stay? -

LUCY:
No -

HYDE:
Either way, there's no way to win!

LUCY:
All I know is' I'm lost -
And I'm counting the cost -
My emotions are in a spin!
I don't know who to blame...

HYDE:
It's a crime and a shame!

LUCY:
but it's true all the same

HYDE/LUCY:
It's a dangerous game!

No one speaks -
Not one word -
But what words are in our eyes
(ALTERNATING)
Silence speaks -
Loud and clear -

All the words we (don't) want to hear!

At the touch of your hand -
At the sound of your voice -
At the moment your eyes meet mine -

I am losing my mind -
I am losing control -
Fighting feelings I can't define!

LUCY:
It's a sin with a name -

HYDE:
No remorse and no shame -
Fire, fury and flame -

LUCY:
Cos the devil's to blame

HYDE/LUCY:
And the angels proclaim
It's a dangerous game!

Lips like morphine- Kill Hannah

I want a girl with lips like morphine,
Knock me out every time they touch me.
I wanna feel a kiss just crush me,
And break me down.

Knock me out (knock me out),
Knock me out (knock me out).
Cause I’ve waited for all my life,
To be here with you tonight.

I want a girl with lips like morphine,
Blow a kiss that leaves me gasping.
And I wanna feel that lightning strike me,
And burn me down.

Knock me out (knock me out),
Knock me out (knock me out).
Cause I’ve waited for all my life,
To be here with you tonight.
Just put me on my back,
Knock me out again.

I want a girl with lips like morphine,
Knock me out every time they touch me.
I want a girl with lips like morphine,
To knock me out.

See I’ve waited for all my life,
To be here with you tonight.
Just put me on my back,
Knock me out again.
