I had to transcribe the lyrics myself since this appears to be from a rather obscure college basement band. It's not completely applicable to The Smoking Man, but the overall desperation of the song reminded me of his personality and outlook on life. GHOSTFACE KILLAH (High Five Revival)The Smoking Man VS The World Here's a streaming versionLighting up a cigarette Try to get all that I can get I got the cure for all your sins To (?) for diving in my bin
CHORUS Ohhh, I'm the ghost of the streets And I know How to dodge the authorities
Now that school is done and through Just what else am I supposed to do I could get a nice cush job in sales Risk it all and go to jail
It's unforgiven And it's out of my hands But it's living It's just supply and demand It ain't that hard without a future plan So go ahead and lay it on me
All this time I thought there was a plan They just throw you out every chance they can Put you away when you break the rules I understand but it still ain't cool
CHORUS
Oh, there's no escape for a guy like me And I know Everyone out here works for the pharmacies
Unforgiven And it's out of my hands But it's living It's just supply and demand It ain't that hard without a future plan So go ahead and lay it on me
Woooooaaah I'm the ghost of the streets

Wide Eyes - Local Natives (this song will always make me think of York and Zach)Oh some evil spirit, Oh some evil this way comes. They told me how they fear it, Now they're placing it on their tongues. Oh to see it with my own eyes. Oh to see it with my own eyes. No food or water, For the better part of ten months. Quietly he sat, Between the folds of a tree trunk. Oh to see it with my own eyes. Oh to see it with my own eyes. All the men of faith, And men of science, have their questions. Could it ever be on Earth, as it is in heaven? Oh to see it with my own eyes. Oh to see it with my own eyes.

Eric’s Song By Vienna Tengwww.youtube.com/watch?v=rc6maCBAAnUCharlotte and Henning again. Bold applies to Charlotte, Italics applies to Henning, normal font applies… to neither. Underlined applies to both. The personal nouns (since it’s a solo song) are kind of a bitch. But you should get the idea. XD Strange how you know inside me I measure the time and I stand amazedStrange how I know inside you My hand is outstretched toward the damp of the hazeAnd of course I forgive I've seen how you live Like a phoenix you rise from the ashes You pick up the pieces And the ghosts in the attic They never quite leaveAnd of course I forgive You've seen how I live I've got darkness and fears to appease My voices and analogies Ambitions like ribbons Worn bright on my sleeveStrange how we know each otherStrange how I fit into you There's a distance erased with the greatest of easeStrange how you fit into me A gentle warmth filling the deepest of needsAnd with each passing day The stories we say Draw us tighter into our addiction Confirm our conviction That some kind of miracle Passed on our headsAnd how I am sure Like never before Of my reasons for defying reasonEmbracing the seasons We dance through the colors Both followed and ledStrange how we fit each other
Strange how certain the journey Time unfolds the petals For our eyes to see Strange how this journey's hurting In ways we accept as part of fate's decreeSo we just hold on fast Acknowledge the past As lessons exquisitely crafted Painstakingly draftedTo carve us as instruments That play the music of life For we don't realize Our faith in the prize Unless it's been somehow elusive How swiftly we choose it The sacred simplicity Of you at my side

THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I HAVE MY iPOD ON RANDOM WHILE I CLEAN "Hot and Cold" by Katy Perry .....Ashlin to Michael/Smoking Man? XDDDDDD' www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_FreDrOFd0
You change your mind Like a girl changes clothes Yeah you, PMS Like a bitch I would know
And you over think Always speak Cryptically
I should know That you're no good for me
[CHORUS] Cause you're hot then you're cold You're yes then you're no You're in then you're out You're up then you're down You're wrong when it's right It's black and it's white We fight, we break up We kiss, we make up (you) You don't really want to stay, no (but you) But you don't really want to go-o You're hot then you're cold You're yes then you're no You're in then you're out You're up then you're down
We used to be Just like twins So in sync The same energy Now's a dead battery Used to laugh bout nothing Now you're plain boring
I should know that You're not gonna change
[CHORUS]
Someone call the doctor Got a case of a love bi-polar Stuck on a roller coaster Can't get off this ride
You change your mind Like a girl changes clothes
[CHORUS 2:] Cause you're hot then you're cold You're yes then you're no You're in then you're out You're up then you're down You're wrong when it's right It's black and it's white We fight, we break up We kiss, we make up You're hot then you're cold You're yes then you're no You're in then you're out You're up then you're down You're wrong when it's right It's black and it's white We fight, we break up We kiss, we make up (you) You don't really want to stay, no (but you) But you don't really want to go-o You're hot then you're cold You're yes then you're no You're in then you're out You're up then you're down, down... "Heaven's Light/Hellfire" from Hunchback of Notre Dame Michael about Ash, and then Smoking Man about Ash? www.youtube.com/watch?v=rj1v5tXs9Jo
Quasimodo: So many times out here I've watched a happy pair Of lovers walking in the night They had a kind of glow around them It almost looked like heaven's light
I knew I'd never know That warm and loving glow Though I might wish with all my might No face as hideous as my face Was ever meant for heaven's light
But suddenly an angel has smiled at me And kissed my cheek without a trace of fright
I dare to dream that she Might even care for me And as I ring these bells tonight My cold dark tower seems so bright I swear it must be heaven's light
Priests: Confiteor Deo Omnipotenti (I confess to God almighty) Beatae Mariae semper Virgini (To blessed Mary ever Virgin) Beato Michaeli archangelo (To the blessed archangel Michael) Sanctis apostolis omnibus sanctis (To the holy apostles, to all the saints)
Frollo: Beata Maria You know I am a righteous man Of my virtue I am justly proud
Priests: Et tibit Pater (And to you, Father)
Frollo: Beata Maria You know I'm so much purer than The common, vulgar, weak, licentious crowd
Priests: Quia peccavi nimis (That I have sinned)
Frollo: Then tell me, Maria Why I see her dancing there Why her smold'ring eyes still scorch my soul
Priests: Cogitatione (In thought)
Frollo: I feel her, I see her The sun caught in raven hair Is blazing in me out of all control
Priests: Verbo et opere (In word and deed)
Frollo: Like fire Hellfire This fire in my skin This burning Desire Is turning me to sin
It's not my fault
Priests: Mea culpa (Through my fault)
Frollo: I'm not to blame
Priests: Mea culpa (Through my fault)
Frollo: It is the gypsy girl The witch who sent this flame
Priests: Mea maxima culpa (Through my most griveous fault)
Frollo: It's not my fault
Priests: Mea culpa (Through my fault)
Frollo: If in God's plan
Priests: Mea culpa (Through my fault)
Frollo: He made the devil so much Stronger than a man
Priests: Mea maxima culpa (Through my most griveous fault)
Frollo: Protect me, Maria Don't let this siren cast her spell Don't let her fire sear my flesh and bone Destroy Esmeralda And let her taste the fires of hell Or else let her be mine and mine alone
Guard: Minister Frollo, the gypsy has escaped
Frollo: What?
Guard: No longer in the cathedral. She's gone
Frollo: But how? Never mind. Get out, you idiot I'll find her. I'll find her if I have to burn down all of Paris
Hellfire Dark fire Now gypsy, it's your turn Choose me or Your pyre Be mine or you will burn
Priests: Kyrie Eleison (Lord have mercy)
Frollo: God have mercy on her
Priests: Kyrie Eleison (Lord have mercy)
Frollo: God have mercy on me
Priests: Kyrie Eleison (Lord have mercy)
Frollo: But she will be mine Or she will burn! "Only Happy When it Rains"by Garbage THOMAS. www.youtube.com/watch?v=WfSKoocUfqw
I'm only happy when it rains I'm only happy when it's complicated And though I know you can't appreciate it I'm only happy when it rains You know I love it when the news is bad And why it feels so good to feel so sad I'm only happy when it rains
Pour your misery down, pour your misery down on me Pour your misery down, pour your misery down on me
I'm only happy when it rains I feel good when things are going wrong I only listen to the sad sad songs I'm only happy when it rains
I only smile in the dark My only comfort is the night gone black I didn't accidentally tell you that I'm only happy when it rains You'll get the message by the time I'm through When I complain about me and you I'm only happy when it rains
Pour your misery down, (pour your misery down on me) Pour your misery down, (pour your misery down on me) Pour your misery down, (pour your misery down on me) Pour your misery down, (pour your misery down on me) Pour your misery down You can keep me company as long as you don't care
I'm only happy when it rains You wanna hear about my new obsession I'm riding high upon a deep depression I'm only happy when it rains
(Pour some misery down on me) I'm only happy when it rains (Pour some misery down on me) I'm only happy when it rains (Pour some misery down on me) I'm only happy when it rains (Pour some misery down on me) I'm only happy when it rains
(Pour some misery down on me) (Pour some misery down on me) (Pour some misery down on me) (Pour some misery down on me)
I'm only happy when it rains (Pour some misery down on me) I'm only happy when it rains (Pour some misery down on me) I'm only happy when it rains (Pour some misery down on me)

The Lonely by Christina Perri
Totally Thomas about George :3
2am, where do I begin Crying off my face again The silent sound of loneliness Wants to follow me to bed
I'm the ghost of a girl That I want to be most I'm the shell of a girl That I used to know well
Dancing slowly in an empty room Can the lonely take the place of you I sing myself a quiet lullaby Let you go and let the lonely in To take my heart again
Too afraid, to go inside For the pain of one more loveless night For the loneliness will stay with me And hold me till I fall asleep
I'm the ghost of a girl That I want to be most I'm the shell of a girl That I used to know well
Dancing slowly in an empty room Can the lonely take the place of you I sing myself a quiet lullaby Let you go and let the lonely in To take my heart again
Broken pieces of A barely breathing story Where there once was love Now there's only me And the lonely...
Dancing slowly in an empty room Can the lonely take the place of you I sing myself a quiet lullaby Let you go and let the lonely in To take my heart again...

Relient K Who I Am Hates Who I've Been
Todd in Red Room after witnessing his RCK doppelganger do horrible things to his friends.
I watched the proverbial sunrise Coming up over the Pacific and You might think I'm losing my mind, But I will shy away from the specifics...
'cause I don't want you to know where I am 'cause then you'll see my heart In the saddest state it's ever been.
This is no place to try and live my life.
[Pre-Chorus] Stop right there. That's exactly where I lost it. See that line. Well I never should have crossed it. Stop right there. Well I never should have said That it's the very moment that I wish that I could take back.
[Chorus] I'm sorry for the person I became. I'm sorry that it took so long for me to change. I'm ready to be sure I never become that way again 'cause who I am hates who I've been. Who I am hates who I've been.
I talk to absolutely no one. Couldn't keep to myself enough. And the things bottled inside have finally begun To create so much pressure that I'll soon blow up.
I heard the reverberating footsteps Synching up to the beating of my heart, And I was positive that unless I got myself together, I would watch me fall apart.
And I can't let that happen again 'cause then you'll see my heart In the saddest state it's ever been.
This is no place to try and live my life.
[Pre-Chorus x2] [Chorus]
Who I am hates who I've been And who I am will take the second chance you gave me. Who I am hates who I've been 'cause who I've been only ever made me...
So sorry for the person I became. So sorry that it took so long for me to change. I'm ready to be sure I never become that way again 'cause who I am hates who I've been. Who I am hates who I've been.
The Killers Mr. Brightside
Todd and his jealousy about Emily with other dudes.
I'm coming out of my cage And I’ve been doing just fine Gotta gotta gotta be down Because I want it all It started out with a kiss How did it end up like this It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss Now I’m falling asleep And she’s calling a cab While he’s having a smoke And she’s taking a drag Now they’re going to bed And my stomach is sick And it’s all in my head But she’s touching his—chest Now, he takes off her dress Now, let me go
I just can’t look its killing me And taking control Jealousy, turning saints into the sea Swimming through sick lullabies Choking on your alibis But it’s just the price I pay Destiny is calling me Open up my eager eyes ‘Cause I’m Mr Brightside
I’m coming out of my cage And I’ve been doing just fine Gotta gotta gotta be down Because I want it all It started out with a kiss How did it end up like this It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss Now I’m falling asleep And she’s calling a cab While he’s having a smoke And she’s taking a drag Now they’re going to bed And my stomach is sick And it’s all in my head But she’s touching his—chest Now, he takes off her dress Now, let me go
I just can’t look its killing me And taking control Jealousy, turning saints into the sea Swimming through sick lullabies Choking on your alibi But it’s just the price I pay Destiny is calling me Open up my eager eyes ‘Cause I’m Mr Brightside
I never... I never... I never...

Rain By Breaking BenjaminOriginally made me think of Tamika or Micheal though could work for most anyone in Greenvale www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pgs2oiWiYV4Take a photograph, It'll be the last, Not a dollar or a crowd could ever keep me here, I don't have a past I just have a chance, Not a family or honest plea remains to say, Rain rain go away, Come again another day, All the world is waiting for the sun. Is it you I want, Or just the notion Of a heart to wrap around so I can find my way around Safe to say from here, Your getting closer now, We are never sad cause we are not allowed to be Rain rain go away, Come again another day, All the world is waiting for the sun. Rain rain go away, Come again another day, All the world is waiting for the sun. To lie here under you, Is all that I could ever do, To lie here under you is all, To lie here under you is all that I could ever do, To lie here under you is all, Rain rain go away, Come again another day, All the world is waiting for the sun. Rain rain go away, Come again another day, All the world is waiting for the sun, All the world is waiting for the sun, All the world is waiting for the sun...

I guess I should try somewhere until I figure out what to do first.
Poets of the Fall (They're certainly Popular here) Carnival of Rust (This song might as well explain both the darkness of Greenvale and some of the story plot)
D' you breathe the name of your savior in your hour of need, And taste the blame if the flavor should remind you of greed? Of implication, insinuation and ill will, 'til you cannot lie still, In all this turmoil, before red cape and foil come closing in for a kill
Come feed the rain 'cause I'm thirsty for your love dancing underneath the skies of lust Yeah, feed the rain 'cause without your love my life ain't nothing but this carnival of rust
It's all a game, avoiding failure, when true colors will bleed All in the name of misbehavior and the things we don't need I lust for after no disaster can touch, touch us anymore And more than ever, I hope to never fall, where enough is not the same it was before
Come feed the rain... 'cause I'm thirsty for your love dancing underneath the skies of lust Yeah, feed the rain 'cause without your love my life ain't nothing but this carnival of rust Yeah, feed the rain 'cause I'm thirsty for your love dancing underneath the skies of lust Yeah, feed the rain 'cause without your love my life ain't nothing but this carnival of rust
Don't walk away, don't walk away, oh, when the world is burning Don't walk away, don't walk away, oh, when the heart is yearning Don't walk away, don't walk away, oh, when the world is burning Don't walk away, don't walk away, oh, when the heart is yearning
Originally by Kate Bush Placebo Running up that Hill (Think York and Zach, though probably more York)
It doesn't hurt me. You wanna feel how it feels? You wanna know, know that it doesn't hurt me? You wanna hear about the deal I'm making? You be running up that hill You and me be running up that hill
And if I only could, Make a deal with God, And get him to swap our places, Be running up that road, Be running up that hill, Be running up that building. If I only could, oh...
You don't wanna hurt me, But see how deep the bullet lies. Unaware that I'm tearing you asunder. There's a thunder in our hearts, baby. So much hate for the ones we love? Tell me, we both matter, don't we?
You, be running up that hill You and me, be running up that hill You and me won't be unhappy.
And if I only could, Make a deal with God, And get him to swap our places, Be running up that road, Be running up that hill, Be running up that building, If I only could, oh...
C'mon, baby, c'mon, c'mon, darling, Let me steal this moment from you now. C'mon, angel, c'mon, c'mon, darling, Let's exchange the experience, oh...'
And if I only could, Make a deal with God, And get him to swap our places, Be running up that road, Be running up that hill, With no problems [x2]
'If I only could, be running up that hill.' [x7]
Lord of the Rings Soundtrack Pippin's Song (Think the Other World, I guess)
Home is behind, the world ahead, And there are many paths to tread, Through shadow to the edge of night, Until the stars are all alight. Mist and shadow, Cloud and shade All shall fade, all shall fade.

Song for the whole town
This is Greenvale By Milkbone and Tamika (to the tune of This is Halloween by Danny Elfman)
Boys and girls of every age, Wouldn’t you like to see something strange. Under the trees and through all hell, Here’s our little town of Greenvale
This is Greenvale! This is Greenvale! Shadows moan in the dead of night!
This is Greenvale! Raincoat Killer made a scene! Gain the Sight and you’ll most surely die of fright It’s our town. Everyone scream! In this town, our Greenvale
We are the ones in the darkness everywhere, Puppet like faces and back bending stares
We are the demon dogs of your nightmares, Eating up your body and tearing out your hair
This is Greenvale! This is Greenvale! Greenvale! Greenvale! Greenvale! Greenvale!
In this town, horrors reside, All them heeding the red seed's call
In this town, don't we love it now, Everyone is waiting for the next Surprise!
Around that corner, the man waiting with an axe in hand, He's is waiting for the pounce and how you'll-
SCREAM! This is Otherworld, Red and purple, fog a whirl,
Aren't you scared?
Well that's just fine. See Them once. See Them twice. Take a chance and go outside. Run in the rain in the dead of night
Everybody scream. Everybody SCREAM!! In this town of our Greenvale.
I am the red seed in your body, Sapping your life away undaunted.
I am the thing that you ask which one? I am the things with possession I will come.
I am the Smoking Man in your mind, Haunting you and killing all Shadow kind
This is Greenvale! This is Greenvale! Greenvale! Greenvale! Greenvale! Greenvale! Greenvale! Greenvale!
Sighted weaklings everywhere, Life's no fun without a good scare.
That's our job, but we're not mean, This town of our Greenvale.
In this town, don't we love it now, Everyone is waiting for the next Surprise!
York and Zach might find THEM in the deep of night, And THEY'LL scream like a banshee, Make you jump out of your skin!
This is Greenvale, everything goes to hell, Won't you please make ready for two special guys?
All see York and Zach, Kings of the Red/White rooms, All around them lead you to your doom!
This is Greenvale! This is Greenvale! Greenvale! Greenvale! Greenvale! Greenvale!
In this town, horrors reside, All them heeding the red seed's call
La la la la-la la La la la la-la la La la la la-la la La la la la-la la EEEEE!!!

I like attributing this to Milkbone, but it is more of a Zach song isn't it? And To say that I'm still alive on here.
I'm Still Here - Goo Goo Dolls
I am a question to the world Not an answer to be heard Or a moment That's held in your arms
And what do you think you'd ever say? I won't listen anyway You don't know me And I'll never be what you want me to be
And what do you think you'd understand? I'm a boy, no, I'm a man You can't take me And throw me away
And how can you learn what's never shown? Yeah, you stand here on your own They don't know me Cause I'm not here
And I want a moment to be real Wanna touch things I don't feel Wanna hold on and feel I belong And how can the world want me to change? They're the ones that stay the same They don't know me Cause I'm not here
And you see the things they never see All you wanted I could be Now you know me And I'm not afraid
And I want to tell you who I am Can you help me be a man? They can't break me As long as I know who I am
And I want a moment to be real Wanna touch things I don't feel Wanna hold on and feel I belong And how can the world want me to change? They're the ones that stay the same They don't know me Cause I'm not here
They can't tell me who to be Cause I'm not what they see Yeah, the world is still sleepin while I keep on dreaming for me And their words are just whispers and lies that I'll never believe
And I want a moment to be real Wanna touch things I don't feel Wanna hold on and feel I belong And how can the world want me to change? They're the ones that stay the same They don't know me Cause I'm not here
I'm the one now Cause I'm still here I'm the one Cause I'm still here I'm still here I'm still here I'm still here
