"Always Love" by "Nada Surf"

To make a mountain of your life
Is just a choice
But I never learned enough
To listen to the voice that told me
Always love Hate will get you every time
Always love Don't wait til the finish line

Slow demands come 'round
Squeeze the air and keep the rest out
It helps to write it down
Even when you then cross it out

But Always Love Hate will get you every time
Always Love even when you wanna fight

Self-directed lives
I want to know what it'd be like to
Aim so high above
Any card that you get dealt you

Always Love
Hate will get you every time
Always love
Hate will get you

I've been held back by something
Yeah. You said to me quietly on the stairs,
I've been held back by something
Yeah. You said to me quietly on the stairs.
You said
Hey, you good ones.
Hey, you good ones.

To make a mountain of your life
Is just a choice
But I never learned enough
To listen to the voice that told me
Always love hate will get you every time
Always love hate will get you

I've been held back by something
Yeah, You said to me quietly on the stairs,
I've been held back by something
Yeah, You said to me quietly on the stairs
You said..
Hey, you good ones
Hey, you good ones
Hey, you good ones

"Revival" by "In the Face of War"

I've been down before with nothing but regret 
but with all that's come my way it hasnt stopped me yet 
it doesnt mean its been easy, but i wont use that as a crutch 
but maybe there were times that it would have been better to have given up 
even when the chips were down, and we couldnt catch a break 
we couldnt give in with so much at stake 

sometimes patience isnt a virtue, its an excuse 
we can't always wait, we make our own luck 
and we've made it this far, but we have so much more to go 
and we've grown this much, but we have so much more to grow 

it's time to start a revival in our hearts 

a rebirth of passion 
a rebirth of dedication 
to our lives and to our dreams 
to never abandon the hope we have in ourselves
