One of my favs by A Perfect Circle - Passive
I'll try and sing this with my band when we get together again for the guild
“Dead as dead can be,” my doctor tells me
But I just can’t believe him, ever the optimistic one
I’m sure of your ability to become my perfect enemy
Wake up and face me, don’t play dead cause maybe
Someday I will walk away and say, “You disappoint me,”
Maybe you’re better off this way
Leaning over you here, cold and catatonic
I catch a brief reflection of what you could and might have been
It's your right and your ability
To become…my perfect enemy…
Wake up and face me,
Don’t play dead
Cause maybe
Someday I’ll walk away and say, “You disappoint me,”
Maybe you’re better off this way
Maybe you’re better off this way
Maybe you’re better off this way
Maybe you’re better off this way
You’re better of this; you’re better off this;
Maybe you’re better off!
Wake up and face me,
Don’t play dead
Cause maybe
Someday I’ll walk away and say, “You ******* disappoint me!”
Maybe you’re better off this way
Go ahead and play dead
I know that you can hear this
Go ahead and play dead
Why can't you turn and face me?
Why can't you turn and face me?
Why can't you turn and face me?
Why can't you turn and face me?
You ******* disappoint me!
Passive aggressive ********

Another one. I wrote this one, but inspired by another band, and for someone. It's Heavy Metal genre
Surgical Tools:
Damager
Oh damager
With glass in your eyes
How do you see
How do you feel with your hands so posed
Lets talk numbers
Lets talk themes
Now they've been ruined
See you next week
I missed the meeting
Oh no
I've been away
Lets be reborn
Oh yeah
Lets dig out graves and make them deep
Oh God its a fashion trend
Fortress lock your plague
Damager dig your grave
Though your pages
Are torn and tattered
They still read you like a book
Just close your eyes and walk away
We laid her down
Opened her with
The sharpest blade we found
Hoping inside
We'd find the cure
To our condition
But as graceful as the lady may have been
She still bled the blood that made her human
She shed roses on her bed
And she spoke in a winter wilted language
"I've sold my gold for blood red
She'll never cry another tear again

This is a song by Thursday - Understanding in a Car Crash
I once dedicated this song with my band toward my dead uncle.
May you rest in peace Ricky Alvarez.
Splintered piece of glass falls, in the seat, gets caught
These broken windows, open locks, reminders of the youth we lost
In trying so hard to look away from you
we followed white lines to the sunset
I crash my car everyday the same way
Time to let this pass
The time it takes, the time it takes to let go
Time runs through our veins.
It starts and stops and starts and stops again
We don't stand a chance in this threadbare time
The time it takes, the time it takes to let go
Time to let this pass
The time it takes, the time it takes to let go
Staring at the setting sun
No reason to come back again
The twilight world in blue and white
The needle and the damage done
I don't want to feel this way forever
A dead letter marked return to sender
The broken watch you gave me turns into a compass
It's two hands still point to the same time 12:03, our last goodbye
So push the seats back a little further
I can see the headlights coming
So push the seats back a little further
Roll the windows down and take a breath
I can see the headlights coming
They paint the world in red and broken glass
Time to let this pass
The time it takes, the time it takes to let go
Time runs through our veins.
It starts and stops and starts and stops again
We don't stand a chance in this threadbare time
The time it takes, the time it takes to let go
Time to let this pass
The time it takes, the time it takes to let go
Staring at the setting sun
No reason to come back again
The twilight world in blue and white
The needle and the damage done
I don't want to feel this way forever
A dead letter marked return to sender
The spinning hubcaps set the tempo, for the music of the broken window
The Cameras on and the cameras click
We open up the lens and can't stop
Staring at the setting sun
No reason to come back again
The twilight world in blue and white
The needle and the damage done
I don't want to feel this way forever
The lights are on and the cameras click
We open up the lens! To broken glass!
Staring at the setting sun
No reason to come back again
The twilight world in blue and white
The needle and the damage done
And it's over! In a flash! And I'll never! Ever understand!
Understanding!
In a Car Crash! In a Car Crash!
In a Crash! In a Crash!
