Gone I
Performed by Avril Lavigne
Lyrics by Avril Lavigne, Butch Walker
I always needed time on my own
I never thought I'd need you there when I cried
And the days feel like years when I'm alone
And the bed where you lie is made up on your side
When you walk away I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now
When you're gone the pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone the face I came to know is missing too
When you're gone the words I need to hear
to always get me through the day
And make it ok
I miss you
I've never felt this way before
Everything that I do, reminds me of you
And the clothes you left, they lie on the floor
And they smell just like you, I love the things that you do
When you walk away I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now
When you're gone the pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone the face I came to know is missing too
When you're gone the words I need to hear
to always get me through the day
And make it ok
I miss you
We were made for each other
Out here forever
I know we were
Yeah yeah
All I ever wanted was for you to know
Everything I do I give my heart and soul
I can hardly believe I need to feel you here with me
When you're gone the pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone the face I came to know is missing too
When you're gone the words I need to hear
to always get me through the day
And make it ok
I miss you

Honestly
Truth
Now I'm gonna tell ya'll a little story. I'm gonna, ask ya'll to close your eyes while I tell ya this story, I want you to listen to me, I want you to listen to yourselves. Go ahead, close your eyes, please. This is the story about a little girl, walking home from the grocery store one sunny, afternoon. I want you to picture that little girl. Suddenly a truck races up. 2 men jump out, and they grab her. And they drag her...

Salute
Salute to the betrayal and misguidence.
Thank you.
May God have mercy on thy soul
"Son, we live in a world that has walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do it? You? (You, Lieutenant Weinberg?) I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. (You weep for Santiago and you curse the marines. ) You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know: that Santiago's death, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives.
You don't want the truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall, you need me on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline.
I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way.
Otherwise I suggest you pick up a weapon and stand at post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to."

Sinking Barely Afloat
It seems the days go by harder and harder - day by day. It seems a struggle.
Underlying currents pulling under slowly overpowering; barely keeping afloat.
All the strength and courage mustered; the blood, the sweat and the tears.
The cries inside unheard.
Imploding.
Breathless.
Helpless.
Yet the struggle continues.
Feels like stuck in a moment.
Many moments.
Too many questions.
Too many unanswered.
Why the questions?
Why the need and the search?
Inadequacy?
Affirmation?
Barely afloat.
Meaningless mundane routine.
Let it sink.

Weathered and Lost
Grinded and battered.
From the unseen wounds.
Left me crying inside.
Left me screaming inside.
Doesn't anyone hear me?
Where do we all go from here?
Where do I go from here?
Help.

Fear
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness which frightens us. Your playing small doesn't serve the world; there is nothing enlightening about shrinking so other people don't feel insecure around you. We were all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear. Our presence automatically liberates others. ...... Sir. I just want to say thank you
-Coach Carter, 2003
