NEW BRIEF! Character and Narrative: Acting Up


Need lyrics from a chorus or a verse of a song, that I can lip-synch to a character to create a narrative, with a prop and surroundings. 

Potential ideas

Alestorm- Black Sails at midnight- dark moody atmosphere, candlelight.. pirate in a tavern with a beer?
'Go, the cold moonlight reflecting off your blade
So many centuries spent waiting for this day
Ride across the seas beneath a blackened sail
Know that a painful death awaits us if we fail.'

'Out of the darkness they came
With cannons a'raging and torches aflame
Slaying all poseurs who stand in their way'

Afroman- Because I got high. Boy sat in his messy bedroom. talking like he's disappointed in himself? 
'I was gonna clean my room, until I got high
I was gonna get up and find the broom, but then I got high
My room is still messed up and I know why.. 
Because I got high.'

Blink 182- Aliens Exist. Boy creeping around the house with a torch peering round doors, calling to his mum/ talking to himself. Discovers alien creatures in the room
'Hey mum, there's something in the backroom
I hope it's not the creature from above..
You used to read me stories
As if my dreams were boring
We all know conspiracies are dumb..
What if people know that these were real
I'd leave my closet door open all night 
I know the CIA would say
What you hear is all hearsay
I wish someone would tell me what was right.'

Alter Bridge- Metalingus. Maybe a knight or soldier? After a fight? 
'On this day I see clearly, everything has come to life
A bitter place and a broken dream,
And we'll leave it all behind
On this day, it's so real to me
Everthing has come to life
Another chance to chase a dream
Another chance to feel alive'

Bruno Mars- The Lazy song- man lying on the sofa with the tv remote watching tv talking to the camera.
'Today I don't feel like doing anything
I just wanna lay in my bed
I don't feel like picking up my phone,
So leave a message at the tone
'Cause today I don't feel like doing anything.'

Bowling for Soup- BFFF ?
'Playing poker Friday night,
Beer-o-mids and golf cart races
You think that my sister's hot
I accidentally shot your finger
off your writing hand oh well,
you get disability.
I broke my leg you laughed so hard
and told my ambulance to stop at the bar.'
