I have the song Smile for me.. by pictures of echoes in my head (local band
)
Smile for Me
Lover dear I must say, are you certain you trust in my name because just as I write to sing all that love you bring won’t get much return.
Or so it seems but you don’t depend on such things. Like a saint you would just give thanks but I just want you to know
I’m not the person that I was before, you’ve gone and changed me
Smile for me just this one last moment, Say my name like it’s nothing special
You, you can’t be saved, say it again, say it again
You, you can’t be saved
By the waves crashing into the shore that is me.
If my nightfire should fade, set sail through endless paintings you would just be warm telling me you’ve sworn, this is just a simple dream for you and me to make each other whole.
I’m not the person that I was before, thank you for changing me
Smile for me just this one last moment, Say my name like it’s nothing special
You, you can’t be saved, say it again, say it again
You, you can’t be saved, by the waves…
You put so much faith in me without expecting a return, are you certain I’m worth what you’re giving she said to me. So just look up and just smile and say for one last time it will be okay, look up and smile and say I love you too.

Smile for me just this one last moment, Say my name like it’s nothing special
You, you can’t be saved, say it again, say it again
You, you can’t be saved, by the waves crashing in to the shore that is me, crashing into the shore

"Little Boxes" which is the theme to the tv show "weeds"
Little boxes on the hillside, Little boxes made of tickytacky
Little boxes on the hillside, little boxes all the same
There's a green one and a pink one and a blue one and a yellow one
And they're all made out of ticky tacky and they all look just the same.
And the people in the houses all went to the university
Where they were put in boxes and they came out all the same,
And there's doctors and there's lawyers, and business executives
And they're all made out of ticky tacky and they all look just the same.
And they all play on the golf course and drink their martinis dry,
And they all have pretty children and the children go to school
And the children go to summer camp and then to the university
Where they are put in boxes and they come out all the same.
And the boys go into business and marry and raise a family
In boxes made of ticky tacky and they all look just the same.
(I love this song... it paints a great picture of suburbia lol)

The song that won't leave my brain.
Lyrics to Dance of Death by Iron Maiden.
Let me tell you a story to chill the bones
About a thing that I saw
One night wandering in the everglades
I'd one drink but no more
I was rambling, enjoying the bright moonlight
Gazing up at the stars
Not aware of a presence so near to me
Watching my every move
Feeling scared and I fell to my knees
As something rushed me from the trees
Took me to an unholy place
And that is where I fell from grace
Then they summoned me over to join in with them
To the dance of the dead
Into the circle of fire I followed them
Into the middle I was led
As if time had stopped still I was numb with fear
But still I wanted to go
And the blaze of the fire did no hurt upon me
As I walked onto the coals
And I felt I was in a trance
And my spirit was lifted from me
And if only someone had the chance
To witness what happened to me
And I danced and I pranced and I sang with them
All had death in their eyes
Lifeless figures they were undead all of them
They had ascended from hell
As I danced with the dead
My free spirit was laughing and howling down at me
Below my undead body
Just danced the circle of dead
Until the time came to reunite us both
My spirit came back down to me
I didn't know if I was alive or dead
As the others all joined in with me
By luck then a skirmish started
And took the attention away from me
When they took their gaze from me
Was the moment that I fled
I ran like hell faster than the wind
But behind I did not glance
One thing that I did not dare
Was to look just straight ahead
When you know that your time has come around
You know you'll be prepared for it
Say your last goodbyes to everyone
Drink and say a prayer for it
When you're lying in your sleep, when you're lying in your bed
And you wake from your dreams to go dancing with the dead
When you're lying in your sleep, when you're lying in your bed
And you wake from your dreams to go dancing with the dead
To this day I guess I'll never know
Just why they let me go
But I'll never go dancing no more
'Til I dance with the dead
