Age of Innocence - 8
Towers of Rabble - 1


Age of Innocence wins! The next matchup is...



For Martha
vs.
Snail



"For Martha"

Whenever I run
Wherever I run to you lost
It's never done
Just hanging on
The past has let me be
Returning as if dream
Shattered as belief
If you have to go, don't say goodbye
If you have to go, don't you cry
If you have to go, I will get by
Someday I'll follow you and see you on the other side
But for the grace of love
I'd will the meaning of
Heaven from above
But for the grace of love
I'd will the meaning of
Heaven from above
Your picture out of time
Left aching in my mind
Shadows kept alive
If you have to go, don't say goodbye
If you have to go, don't you cry
If you have to go, I will get by
I will follow you and see you on the other side
But for the grace of love
Who'd will the meaning of
Heaven from above
Long horses we are born
Creatures more than torn
Mourning our way home

"Snail"

All your seven dreams
Are closer than you believe
As your things come undone
See you are the only one
Flower, seize the hour, the day away
Waiting, waiting for your way, away
When you wake up you're away
Throwing your life away
Someday, sorry coming home
Sorry, snail
What you wait for
Flower, the pain will wash away, away
When the sunshine climbs through your window
Into your bed
When you wake up you're away
Throwing your life away
Someday, sorry coming home
Sorry, snail
Yeah, live in my home
Flower, seize the hour
Flower, away
What you wait for
Flower, taste the sunshine
Flower, taste the sunshine
Flower

I know it's going to lose this one but I have to go with the song that's closest to my heart. Snail was the song in high school that made me take a deep breath and get out of bed, not afraid to crash and burn.

Snail x 1,000,000

For Martha - 9
Snail - 6


For Martha wins! The next matchup is...



Hummer
vs.
Where Boys Fear to tread




"Hummer"

Faith lies in
The ways of sin
I chased the charmed
But I don't want them anymore
And in their eyes I was alive
A fool's disguise
Take me away from you
Shame my tongue
Fat with promise all along
But when I woke up from that sleep
I was happier than I'd ever been
When you decide
That your life is a prize
Renew and revive
It's alright honey
It's alright, yeah
Happiness will make you wonder
Will I feel OK?
It scares the disenchanted
Far away
Yeah I want something new
But what am I supposed to do about you
Yeah I love you, it's true
Life's a bummer
When you're a hummer
Life's a drag
Ask yourself a question
Anyone but me
I ain't free
Ask yourself a question
Anyone but me
I ain't free
Do you feel
Love is real?

"Where Boys Fear to Tread"

Candy cane walks down
To build a bonfire, to break my fall
My baby, my sweet thing
Just maybe we could lose ourselves this time
King of the horseflies, dark prince of death
His tragic forces are heaven sent
In sweet things, in a lovers breath
In knowing this was meant to be the last
A go-go-kids, a go-go-style
A suck suck kiss, a suck suck smile
As always, in young need
A veiled promise to never die
On dead highways, her black beauties roam
For june angels, so far from home
For a love lost, a faded picture
To tread lightning, to ink the lavender skies
So get on the bomb

Hummer - 7
Where Boys Fear to Tread - 3


Hummer wins! The next matchup is...



Ava Adore
vs.
We Only Come Out at Night




"Ava Adore"

It's you that I adore
You will always be my whore
You'll be a mother to my child
And a child to my heart
We must never be apart
We must never be apart
Lovely girl you're the beauty in my world
Without you there aren't reasons left to find
And I'll pull your crooked teeth
You'll be perfect just like me
You'll be a lover in my bed
And a gun to my head
We must never be apart
we must never be apart
Lovely girl you're the murder in my world
Dressing coffins for the souls I've left to die
Drinking mercury to the mystery
Of all that you should ever leave behind
In time
In you I see dirty
In you I count stars
In you I feel so pretty
In you I taste god
In you I feel so hungry
In you I crash cars
We must never be apart
Drinking mercury to the mystery
Of all that you should ever seek to find
Lovely girl you're the murder in my world
Dressing coffins for the souls I've left behind
In time
We must never be apart
And you'll always be my whore
Cause you're the one that I adore
And I'll pull your crooked teeth
You'll be perfect just like me
In you I feel so dirty in you I crash cars
In you I feel so pretty in you I taste god
We must never be apart

"We Only Come Out at Night"

We only come out at night, the days are much too bright
We only come out at night
And once again, you'll pretend to know me well, my friends
And once again, I'll pretend to know the way
Thru the empty space
Thru the secret places of the heart
We only come out at night, the days are much too bright
We only come out at night
I walk alone, I walk alone to find the way home
I'm on my own, I'm on my own to see the ways
That I can't help the days, you will make it home o.k
I know you can, and you can
We only come out at night, the days are much too bright
We only come out at night
And once again, you'll pretend to know that
There's an end, that there's an end to this begin
It will help you sleep at night
It will make it seem that right is always right
Alright?
We only come out at night
