R.E.M.
When the day is long and the night, the night is yours alone,
When you’re sure you’ve had enough of this life, well hang on
Don’t let yourself go, ’cause everybody cries and everybody hurts sometimes
Sometimes everything is wrong. Now it’s time to sing along
When your day is night alone, (hold on, hold on)
If you feel like letting go, (hold on)
When you think you’ve had too much of this life, well hang on
‘Cause everybody hurts. Take comfort in your friends
Everybody hurts. Don’t throw your hand. Oh, no. Don’t throw your hand
If you feel like you’re alone, no, no, no, you are not alone
If you’re on your own in this life, the days and nights are long,
When you think you’ve had too much of this life to hang on
Well, everybody hurts sometimes,
Everybody cries. And everybody hurts sometimes
And everybody hurts sometimes. So, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
Everybody hurts. You are not alone
I haven’t been getting enough sleep.

| The Road Not Taken |
| TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood, | |
| And sorry I could not travel both | |
| And be one traveler, long I stood | |
| And looked down one as far as I could | |
| To where it bent in the undergrowth; | 5 |
| Then took the other, as just as fair, | |
| And having perhaps the better claim, | |
| Because it was grassy and wanted wear; | |
| Though as for that the passing there | |
| Had worn them really about the same, | 10 |
| And both that morning equally lay | |
| In leaves no step had trodden black. | |
| Oh, I kept the first for another day! | |
| Yet knowing how way leads on to way, | |
| I doubted if I should ever come back. | 15 |
| I shall be telling this with a sigh | |
| Somewhere ages and ages hence: | |
| Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— | |
| I took the one less traveled by, | |
| And that has made all the difference. | 20 |

Give In
Give in to your confusion
There’s no good in hiding
Why you’re unusual
Leave it behind, then change your mind
Take what you find, it will be good enough
Too young to be heros
Too old to play April fools
Too smart to be honest
We’ve got too much to lose
It’s too late to be perfect
And it’s not like we haven’t tried
It’s hard but it’s worth it
Every time we get it right
Every time you give in
And go where it takes you
Stand by the feeling
Even if it breaks you
It’s always a guess which way is the best
Take what you find and make it good enough
Too young to be heros
Too old to play April fools
Too smart to be honest
We’ve got too much to lose
It’s too late to be perfect
And it’s not like we haven’t tried
It’s hard but it’s worth it
Every time we get it right
And even when you’re lost inside yourself
Even when too weak to cry for help
Even when you can’t put up a fight
Even when you’re broken you aren’t quite
Maybe it’s the struggle that you need
Something to disturb you in your sleep
A kiss of madness on your cheek
When will you see you’ve got to
Give in to you confusion
Leave it behind, then change your mind
Take what you find, let it be good enough
Too young to be heros
Too old to play April fools
Too smart to be honest
We’ve got too much to lose
Too young to be heros
It’s too late to be perfect
And it’s not like we haven’t tried
It’s hard but it’s worth it
Every time we give
