Billy Squier is one of my all time favorites. I met him after a concert once and he is the nicest guy. And barely taller than me!

Lonely Is The Night

Lonely is the night, when you find yourself alone
Your demons come to light, and your mind is not your own
Lonely is the night, when there’s no one left to call
You feel the time is right–(say) the writin’s on the wall

It’s a high time to fight, when the walls are closin’ in
Call it what you like–its time you got to win
Lonely, lonely, lonely–your spirits sinkin’ down
You find you’re not the only, stranger in this town

Red lights, green lights, stop n’ go jive
Headlines, deadlines jammin’ your mind
You been stealin’ shots from the side
Let your feelins go for a ride

There’s danger out tonight..the man is on the prowl
Get the dynamite…the boys are set to howl
Lonely is the night when you hear the voices call
Are you ready for a fight–do you wanna take it all

Slowdown, showdown–waitin’ on line
Showtime, no time for changin’ your mind
Streets are ringin’, march to the sound
Let your secrets follow you down

Somebody’s watchin’ you baby–so much you can do
Nobody’s stoppin’ you baby, from makin’ it too
One glimpse’ll show you now baby, what the music can do
One kiss’ll show you now baby–it can happen to you

No more sleepin’, wastin’ our time
Midnight creepins first on our minds
No more lazin round the tv
You’ll go crazy–come out with me

One of my very favorites from Bryan Adams. I also love the movie.

Everything I Do (I Do It For You)

Look into my eyes – you will see
What you mean to me
Search your heart – search your soul
And when you find me there you’ll search no more

Don’t tell me it’s not worth tryin’ for
You can’t tell me it’s not worth dyin’ for
You know it’s true
Everything I do – I do it for you

Look into your heart – you will find
There’s nothin’ there to hide
Take me as I am – take my life
I would give it all – I would sacrifice

Don’t tell me it’s not worth fightin’ for
I can’t help it – there’s nothin’ I want more
Ya know it’s true
Everything I do – I do it for you

There’s no love – like your love
And no other – could give more love
There’s nowhere – unless you’re there
All the time – all the way

Oh – you can’t tell me it’s not worth tryin’ for
I can’t help it – there’s nothin’ I want more
I would fight for you – I’d lie for you
Walk the wire for you – ya I’d die for you

Ya know it’s true
Everything I do – I do it for you

Cradle of Love

From the hair band days! Love this song!

I’m On To You

I’m not one
To give advice
But girl you’re in trouble
And you’d better think twice
You’re holding up your hands
With diamonds on your rings
Is it love or money
That makes you do these things

I say na-na-na-na-na-na
I’m on to you
Na-na-na-na-na-na
I won’t be a fool
Can’t you see how hard I try
To keep you satisfied
Na-na-na-na-na-na

You can play with your money
But you can’t play with love
The company you keep
You put yourself above
What I wanna know is
What you want with me
You’ve got my attention
But not my sympathy

I say na-na-na-na-na-na
I’m on to you
Na-na-na-na-na-na
I won’t be a fool
I don’t wanna hear your lies
Being victimized
Na-na-na-na-na-na

Oh!

I said na-na-na-na-na-na
I’m on to you
Na-na-na-na-na-na
I won’t be a fool
Can’t you see how hard I try
To keep you satisfied
Na-na-na-na-na-na

Stand back
It won’t be love we are fighting for
If you close the door
I don’t wanna hear your lies
I’m being victimized
Na-na-na-na-na-na

You can play with your money
You can’t play with love
That company you keep
You put yourself above
What I wanna know is
What you want with me
You’ve got my attention
But not my sympathy

Na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na

Na-na-na-na-na-na
I’m on to you
Na-na-na-na-na-na
I’m never gonna be your fool
Na-na-na-na-na-na
I’m on to you
Na-na-na-na-na-na
Oh!

This song reminds me of my mom, so this is for her. I miss her already so much.

You Are Not Alone

Another day has gone
I’m still all alone
How could this be
You’re not here with me
You never said goodbye
Someone tell me why
Did you have to go
And leave my world so cold

Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Something whispers in my ear and says
That you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you’re far away
I am here to stay

You are not alone
I am here with you
Though we’re far apart
You’re always in my heart
You are not alone

All alone
Why, oh

Just the other night
I thought I heard you cry
Asking me to come
And hold you in my arms
I can hear your prayers
Your burdens I will bear
But first I need your hand
So forever can begin

Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Then something whispers in my ear and says
That you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you’re far away
I am here to stay
For you are not alone
I am here with you
Though we’re far apart
You’re always in my heart
And you are not alone

Whisper three words and I’ll come runnin’
And girl you know that I’ll be there
I’ll be there

You are not alone
I am here with you
Though you’re far away
I am here to stay
You are not alone
I am here with you
Though we’re far apart
You’re always in my heart

You are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you’re far away
I am here to stay
For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we’re far apart
You’re always in my heart

For you are not alone

Yup, my favorite song by Audioslave. I love Chris Cornell.

Show Me How To Live by Audioslave

Show Me How To Live

In with the early dawn
Moving right along
I couldnt buy an eye of sleep
And in the aching night
Under satellite
I was not recieved
With the stolen parts
A telephone in my heart
Someone get me a priest
To put my mind to bed
This ringing in my head
Is this a cure is or is this a disease

Hey hey I said
Near as I can figure
You gave me life now
Show me how to live
Hey hey I said
Near as I can figure
You gave me life now
Show me how to live

In the afterbirth
On the quiet earth
Let this things remind me
You thought you made amend
You better think again
Before my row defines you

Hey hey I said
Near as I an figure
You gave me life now show me how to live
Hey hey I said
Near as I can figure
You gave me life now
Show me how to live

And in your waiting hands
I will land
And roll out of my skin
And in your final hours I will stand
Ready to begin
Ready to begin
Ready to begin
Ready to begin

Hey hey I said
Near as I can figure
You gave me life now
Show me how to live
Hey hey I said
Near as I can figure
You gave me life now
Show me how to live
Show me how to live
Show me how to live
Show me how to live
Show me how to live

I love this song!

Interesting song.

Monster

The secret side of me
I never let you see
I keep it caged but I can’t control it so stay away from me the beast
Is ugly I feel the rage and I just can’t hold it

It’s scratchin on the walls
In the closet in the halls
It comes awake and Ii can’t control it
Hidin’ under the bed
In my body in my head
Why won’t somebody come and save me from this make it end

CHORUS:
I feel it deep within
It’s just beneath the skin
I must confess that I feel like a monster

I hate what I’ve become
The nightmare’s just begun
I must confess that I feel like a monster

I feel like a monster

My secret side I keep
Hid under lock and key
I keep it caged but I can’t control it cause if I let him out
He’ll tear me up break me down
Why won’t somebody come and save me from this make it end

Its hidin’ in the dark
It’s teeth are razor sharp
There’s no escape for me
It wants my soul it wants my heart

No one can hear me scream
Maybe it’s just a dream
Or maybe it’s inside of me
Stop this monster

Evolution

I’m digging with my fingertips,
I’m gripping at the ground I stand upon.
I’m searching for fragile bones.
(Evolution)

I’m never gonna be refined;
keep trying but I won’t assimilate.
Sure, we have come far in time…
(Watch the bough break)

And I’m sorry I don’t believe,
by the evidence that I see,
that there’s any hope left for me…
It’s evolution!
Just evolution!

And I, I do not dare deny
the basic beast inside;
it’s right here,
it’s controlling my mind!
And why do I deserve to die?
I’m dominated by
this animal that’s locked up inside!

Close up to get a real good view,
I’m betting that the species will survive.
Hold tight, I’m getting inside you…
(Evolution)
And when we’re gonna find these bones,
they’re gonna want to keep them in a jar.
The number one virus,
caused by procreation.

And the planet may go astray;
in a million years they’ll say:
“Those mother fuckers were all deranged!”
It’s evolution!
Just evolution!

And I, I do not dare deny
the basic beast inside;
it’s right here,
it’s controlling my mind!
And why do I deserve to die?
I’m dominated by
this animal that’s locked up inside!

Take a look around… (take a look around…)
Nothing much has changed!
Take a look around… (take a look around…)
Nothing much has changed!
Take a look around!
Take a look around!
Take a look around!
Nothing much has changed!
Take a look around!
Take a look around!
Nothing much has changed!
Take a look around!
Take a look around!
Nothing much has changed!
Take a look around!

I, I do not dare deny
the basic beast inside;
it’s right here,
it’s controlling my mind!
And why do I deserve to die?
I’m dominated by
this animal that’s locked up inside
Why? (why.) (why) (why)
Why do I deserve to die? (do i deserve to die)
(Why? Why? Why?)

I LOVE this song.

Sober

Theres a shadow just behind me. shrouding every step I take.
Making every promise empty. pointing every finger at me.
Waiting like a stalking butler, who upon the finger rests.
Murder now the path of must we, just because the son has come.

Jesus, wont you fucking whistle. something but the past and done.

Why cant we not be sober? I just want to start this over.
Why cant we drink forever? I just want to start this over.

I am just a worthless liar. I am just an imbecile.
I will only complicate you. trust in me and fall as well.
I will find a center in you. I will chew it up and leave.
I will work to elevate you, just enough to bring you down.

Mother mary, wont you whisper. something but the past is done.

Why cant we not be sober? I just want to start this over.
Why cant we sleep forever? I just want to start this over.

I am just a worthless liar. I am just an imbecile.
I will only complicate you. trust in me and fall as well.
I will find a center in you. I will chew it up and leave.
Trust me. trust me. trust me. trust me. trust me.

Why cant we not be sober. I just want to start things over.
Why cant we sleep forever. I just want to start this over.

I want what I want…
I want what I want…
I want what I want…
I want what I want…
