Boulevard Of Broken Songs

I've been meaning to download and listen to this song for a long time... I've 3 of the 4 songs that are used in this mix (except "Wonderwall" by Oasis) so I was really intrigued by the mash up.

I really love this song now. Cos the lyrics really speak to me. And cos I can sing w/o falsetto the whole song. Muahaha. Great to belt out when I'm feeling down for all the wrong reasons.

This is actually a video made by a Youtuber "moneybooster", he made this song to the mash up that was done using the Aerosmith song "Dream On", instead of Eminem's "Sing For The Moment". The sampled songs thus are "Boulevard Of Broken Dreams" by Green Day, "Wonderwall" by Oasis, "Writing To Reach You" by Travis, "Sing For The Moment" by Eminem, which itself samples "Dream On" by Aerosmith.


"Boulevard Of Broken Songs" by Party Ben




I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know where it goes
But it's home to me and I walk alone


Today is gonna be the day
That they're gonna throw it back to you


I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk alone


By now you should've somehow
Realized what you gotta do
(I walk alone
I walk alone)
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do about you now
(I walk alone
I walk a-)


My shadow the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Til then I walk alone


Everyday I wake up and it's Sunday
Whatever's in my head won't go away
The radio is playing all the usual
And what's a wonderwall anyway


Backbeat the word was on the street
That the fire in your heart is out
I'm sure you've heard it all before
But you never really had a doubt
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do about you now


I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the borderline of the edge
And where I walk alone


Today is gonna be the day
That they're gonna throw it back to you


Read between the lines of what's
F**ked up and everything's all right
Check my vital signs to know I'm still alive
And I walk alone


Today is gonna be the day
That they're gonna throw it back to you
(I walk alone
I walk alone)
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you gotta do
(I walk alone
I walk a-)


And all the roads we have to walk are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I would
Like to say to you
But I don't know how


I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams


Today is gonna be the day
That they're gonna throw it back to you


I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams


By now you should've somehow
Realized what you gotta do


Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk a-


(Cos maybe)
My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
(You're gonna be the one that saves me)
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
(You're gonna be the one that saves me)
Sometimes I wish that someone out there will find me
(You're gonna be the one that saves me)
'Til then I walk alone


Sing with me, (sing) sing for the years (sing it)
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tears (c'mon)
Sing it with me, just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away


"You'll Never Walk Alone"


Archangel
