80's Hits
Though it's been a while now
I can still feel so much pain
Like a knife that cuts you,
the would heals.
But the scar,
The scar remains.

but maybe I'll be going there soon again.

Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before

And I never minded standing in the rain
But you don't have to call me darling darling
You never even call me by my name.

Well, now,
if little by little you stop loving me
I shall stop loving you little by little.

Should have seen just what was there,
and not some holy light.

the stranger who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread.
Give back your heart to itself,
to the stranger who has loved you all your life

We don't need no education
We don't need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teacher, leave them kids alone

And my heart is sinking like the setting sun
Setting on the things I wish I'd done
It's time to say goodbye to yesterday
And this is where the cowboy rides away

The Cowboy Rides Away by George Straight
The wild dogs cry out in the night.
As they grow restless,
longing for some solitary company.
I know that I must do what's right.
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises
like Olympus above the Serengeti.
Song!
Africa by Toto
All the roads we have to walk are winding.
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding.
There are many things that I would like to say to you,
But I don't know how.
Song!
Wonderwall by Oasis
But all the magic I have known,
I've had to make myself.

With your bitter, twisted lies,
You may tread me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I’ll rise.

And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could

The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost
If you can't see anything beautiful about yourself,
get a better mirror,
look a little closer,
stare a little longer,
because there's something inside you that made you keep trying,
despite everyone who told you to quit.
Poem!
To This Day by Shane Koyczan
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.

Do Not Stand At my Grave and Weep by Mary Elizabeth Frye
And it's been two years I miss my home
But there's a fire burning in my bones
Still believe
Yeah, I still believe

Fight Song by Rachel Platten
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade.
Invictus by William Ernest Henley
Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Poem!
Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night by Dylan Thomas
If I listen to your lies, would you say
I'm a man without conviction?
I'm a man who doesn't know
how to sell a contradiction?
You come and go, You come and go.
Song!
Karma Chameleon by Culture Club
There is a voice inside of you,
That whispers all day long.
I feel that this is right for me,
I know that this is wrong.

You saved my life,
now maybe it's my turn to save yours
But I can never repay you,
what you did for me is way more
But I ain't giving up faith

I Need a Doctor by Dr. Dre, Eminem, and Skylar Grey
In your head, in your head, they're still fighting
With their tanks and their bombs
And their bombs and their guns
In your head, in your head, they are dying

Zombie by The Cranberries
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you.
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too.
Poem!
If by Rudyard Kipling
