Follow you down to the red oak tree
As the air moves thick through the hollow reeds
Will you wait for me there until someone comes
To carry me, carry me down?
See I have not, I have not grown cold
I have stole from men who have stole from those
With their arms so thin and their skin so old
But you are young, you are young, you are young
Then somebody laughs like it's all just for hell
As though we could not be saved from the depth of the well
But the cloth that I make is a cloth you can sell
To pay for the gossamer seeds
Names get carved in the red oak tree
Of the ones who stay and the ones who leave
I will wait for you there with these cindered bones
So follow me, follow me down
Follow me, follow me down
Follow me, follow me down
Follow me, follow me down

One thing - Finger Eleven
Restless tonight
Cause I wasted the light
Between both these times
I drew a really thin line
It’s nothing I planned
And not that I can
But you should be mine
Across that line
If I traded it all
If I gave it all away for one thing
Just for one thing
If I sorted it out
If I knew all about this one thing
Wouldn’t that be something
I promise I might
Not walk on by
Maybe next time
But not this time
Even though I know
I don’t want to know
Yeah, I guess I know
I just hate how it sounds
If I traded it all
If I gave it all away for one thing
Just for one thing
If I sorted it out
If I knew all about this one thing
Wouldn’t that be something
If I traded it all
If I gave it all away for one thing
Just for one thing
If I sorted it out
If I knew all about this one thing
Wouldn’t that be something

Venner - Halvdan Sivertsen
Å berre vær i lag igjen
E vi som før, kor ska vi hen?
Vi tar en skål førr det som va
Førr gammel tru, førr alt vi sa
Førr alt vi e uenig om
Førr lys og luft tell mørke rom
Der vi kan se vårt eget svik
Vi e forskjellig, vi e lik
Og vet at
Hver gang vi møtes, har vi det bra
Vi e venna førr livet
Sånne e gode å ha
Her mase ingen om suksess
Hvis du e trist, så e du det
Og kommer tåran, la dem renn
Tell du ser lys og land igjen
Hver gang vi møtes, har vi det bra
Vi e venna førr livet
Sånne e gode å ha
Om vi e lat, om vi e lei
Og sku sagt ”ja” der vi sa ”nei”
Om vi e sur, om vi e sær
Blir det førr tøft, så e vi der
Så finn et krus og slå dæ ned
Her kan du være den du e
Her finnes trøst, her finnes tru
Vi lev i samme drøm som du
Hver gang vi møtes, har vi det bra
Vi e venna førr livet
Sånne e gode å ha
E vi som før, kor ska vi hen?
Vi tar en skål førr det som va
Førr gammel tru, førr alt vi sa
Førr alt vi e uenig om
Førr lys og luft tell mørke rom

I will get what is mine - Trapt
All he wanted was a chance
To tear down the glass
And when he finally heard the crash
He never did look back
And he ran to pack his bags
And headed down the path
Cause he knew there was something different
Out there for him at last
Free at last
Do you believe?
(I will never ever be the same)
Now he's on his own
So far away from home
And in the back of his mind
Watching from the corner of his eye he said
“I will get what’s mine”
All he needed was a glance
Of everything he had
And when he finally made his stance
No one could hold him back
Cause they don’t understand
He holds it in his hands
Cause he knew there was something different
Out there for him at last
Free at last
Do you believe?
(I will never ever be the same)
Now he's on his own
So far away from home
And in the back of his mind
Watching from the corner of his eye he said
“I will get what’s mine”
All he wanted was a chance
All he wanted was a chance
All he wanted was a chance
All he wanted was a chance
Free at last
Do you believe?
(I will never ever be the same)
Now he's on his own
So far away from home
And in the back of his mind
Watching from the corner of his eye he said
“I will get what’s mine”
I will get what’s mine
I will get, I will get what’s mine
To tear down the glass
And when he finally heard the crash
He never did look back
And he ran to pack his bags
And headed down the path
Cause he knew there was something different
Out there for him at last
Free at last
Do you believe?

Stay alive - Trapt
Your fingers were crossed
Behind your back
Before you ever gave me a chance
But now I have learned
To trust myself
And I don't need anyone else
No one’s here to light the candle
No one’s here to light the way
It’s something I will have to handle my way
I've got to open up my eyes
To find a way to kill the boredom
I watch the time go by
Now it’s time for me to get mine
Out of room, out of places to hide
Backed up in the corner
I know I will stay alive
Out of room, out of places to hide
Backed up in the corner
I know I will stay alive
The lights are still on
And I am still here
There's nothing left to fear
A vision I've seen
A fire will burn
No longer will I wait my turn
No one’s here to light the candle
No one’s here to light the way
It’s something I will have to handle my way
I've got to open up my eyes
To find a way to kill the boredom
I watch the time go by
Now it’s time for me to get mine
Out of room, out of places to hide
Backed up in the corner
I know I will stay alive
Out of room, out of places to hide
Backed up in the corner
I know I will stay alive
Stay alive
Stay alive
This time it’s time for me to get mine
Out of room, out of places to hide
Backed up in the corner
I know I will stay alive
Out of room, out of places to hide
Backed up in the corner
I know I will stay alive
I will stay alive
I will stay alive
I will stay alive
I will stay alive
Behind your back
Before you ever gave me a chance
But now I have learned
To trust myself
And I don't need anyone else
No one’s here to light the candle
No one’s here to light the way
It’s something I will have to handle my way
I've got to open up my eyes
To find a way to kill the boredom
I watch the time go by
Now it’s time for me to get mine
Out of room, out of places to hide
Backed up in the corner
I know I will stay alive
Out of room, out of places to hide
Backed up in the corner
I know I will stay alive
The lights are still on
And I am still here
There's nothing left to fear

Out of room, out of places to hide
Backed up in the corner
I know I will stay alive
Out of room, out of places to hide
Backed up in the corner
I know I will stay alive
Stay alive
Stay alive
This time it’s time for me to get mine
Out of room, out of places to hide
Backed up in the corner
I know I will stay alive
Out of room, out of places to hide
Backed up in the corner
I know I will stay alive
I will stay alive
I will stay alive
I will stay alive
I will stay alive

Live forever - Drew Holcomb And The Neighbors
Laughter is the only thing that'll keep you sane
In this world that's crying more and more everyday
Don't let evil get you down
In this madness spinning round and round
I want you to live forever
Underneath the sky so blue
Some people say faith is a childish game
Play on, children, like it's christmas day
Sing me a song, sing me a melody
Sing out loud, you're a symphony
I want you to live forever
Underneath the sky so blue
I want you to live forever
Underneath the sky so blue
Take courage when the road is long
Don't ever forget you are never alone
I want you to live forever
Underneath the sky so blue
I want you to live forever
Underneath the sky so blue
I want you to live forever
Underneath the sky so blue
I want you to live forever
Underneath the sky so blue
In this world that's crying more and more everyday
Don't let evil get you down
In this madness spinning round and round
I want you to live forever
Underneath the sky so blue
Some people say faith is a childish game
Play on, children, like it's christmas day
Sing me a song, sing me a melody
Sing out loud, you're a symphony
I want you to live forever
Underneath the sky so blue
I want you to live forever
Underneath the sky so blue
Take courage when the road is long
Don't ever forget you are never alone
I want you to live forever
Underneath the sky so blue
I want you to live forever
Underneath the sky so blue
I want you to live forever
Underneath the sky so blue
I want you to live forever
Underneath the sky so blue

Carry your will - The Mowgli's
Cherish this cause when it doesn't last you'll wish you had
I will cherish this
I will be humble again
What will it take to get me to get where I'm going?
Do you know the way?
Do you know when the tunnel ends?
Lord, have mercy on me
I see a house of lies built upon a foundation of sand
That was our house
That was our life, but we fell in
Then it was dark and we could see no more
But somehow we found each other
Somehow we found hope
If you carry your will, I will carry my will
If you carry your will, I will carry my will
If you carry your will, I will carry my will
If you carry your will, I will carry my will
Let your faith guide your faith
Let your faith guide your faith

Let your faith guide your faith
Let your faith guide your faith
Let your faith guide your faith
Let your faith guide your faith
Let your faith guide your faith
Let your faith guide your faith
If you carry your will, I will carry my will
If you carry your will, I will carry my will
If you carry your will, I will carry my will
If you carry your will, I will carry my will
Let your faith guide your faith
Let your faith guide your faith
Let your faith guide your faith
Let your faith guide your faith
Cherish this cause when it doesn't last you'll wish you had

Come and find me - Josh Ritter
If I could trace the line that ran
Between your smile and your sleight of hand
I'd guess that you put something up my sleeve
Now every time I see your face the bells ring in a far off place
We can find each other this way I believe
From the hills and up behind
My town is naked from the horizon down
The curvature is pressed against the raise
Now we walked up in the fields alone
And the silence fell just like a stone
That got lost in the wild blue and the gravel grey
Come and find me now
Come and find me now
Though I'm here in this far off place
My air is not here, time and space
I draw you close with every breath
You don't know it's right until it's wrong
You don't know it's yours until it's gone
I didn't know that it was home ‘til you up and left
Come and find me now
Come and find me now
I keep you in a flower vase
With your fatalism and your crooked face
With the daisies and the violet brocades
And I keep me in a vacant lot
In the ivies and forget-me-nots
Hoping you will come and untangle me one of these days
Come and find me now
Come and find me now
Between your smile and your sleight of hand
I'd guess that you put something up my sleeve
Now every time I see your face the bells ring in a far off place
We can find each other this way I believe
From the hills and up behind
My town is naked from the horizon down
The curvature is pressed against the raise
Now we walked up in the fields alone
And the silence fell just like a stone
That got lost in the wild blue and the gravel grey
Come and find me now
Come and find me now
Though I'm here in this far off place
My air is not here, time and space
I draw you close with every breath
You don't know it's right until it's wrong
You don't know it's yours until it's gone
I didn't know that it was home ‘til you up and left
Come and find me now
Come and find me now
I keep you in a flower vase
With your fatalism and your crooked face
With the daisies and the violet brocades
And I keep me in a vacant lot
In the ivies and forget-me-nots
Hoping you will come and untangle me one of these days
Come and find me now
Come and find me now
This is not the end - The Bravery
Tell me
Come on, tell me what you can
Even as you wait for death
You're wiser than I am
Tell me, what does it mean to exist?
I am not a scientist
I must believe in more than this
And I cannot accept
That everything is real
Is only what our eyes can see
And our hands can feel
Not even earth can hold us
Not even life controls us
Not even the ground can keep us down
The memories in my head
Are just as real as the time we spent
You’ll always be close to me
My friend
This is not the end
I see
I can see you're so afraid
You wear it like a silver hood
On you even fear looks good
I wish, I wish I had some words to give
But all that I can think to say
Is I'll be with you everyday
Not even earth can hold us
Not even life controls us
Not even the ground can keep us down
The memories in my head
I just realized the time we spent
Are just as real as the time we spent
My friend
This is not the end
This is not the end
This is not the end
This is not the end
This is not the end
I don't care
I don't care what you believe
As long as you are in my heart
You're just as real as me
Maybe, maybe even more
Someone has touched so many lives
Can never, never die
Not even earth can hold us
Not even life controls us
Not even the ground can keep us down
The memories in my head
Are just as real as the time we spent
You’ll always be close to me
My friend
This is not the end
This is not the end
This is not the end
This is not the end
This is not the end
Come on, tell me what you can
Even as you wait for death
You're wiser than I am

The misty mountains cold
Far over the misty mountains cold
To dungeons deep and caverns old
We must away ere break of day
To find our long forgotten gold
The pines where roaring on the height
The winds were moaning in the night
The fire was red, it flaming spread
The trees like torches blazed with light
Far over the misty mountains cold
To dungeons deep and caverns old
We must away ere break of day
To find our long forgotten gold
The pines where roaring on the height
The winds were moaning in the night
The fire was red, it flaming spread
The trees like torches blazed with light
