Stone Sour/Ashanti "Bother" Lyrics:
[Corey]
Wish I was too dead to cry
My self-affliction fades
Stones to throw at my creator
Masochists to which I cater
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds
[Ashanti]
Wish I was too dead to care
If indeed I cared at all
Never had a voice to protest
So you fed me **** to digest
[Corey]
I wish I had a reason;
my flaws are open season
For this, I gave up trying
[Ashanti]
One good turn deserves my dying
[Both]
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds
[Corey]
Wish I'd died instead of lived
A zombie hides my face
[Ashanti]
Shell forgotten
with its memories
Diaries left
with cryptic entries
[Both]
And you don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds
[Corey]
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on:
I'll never live down my deceit
[Ashanti]
You don't need to bother;
I really don't need to be
I'm always slipping farther
So once I hold on:
You know I'll never live down my deceit

AshantiAvrilBaby "Spirit" Lyrics:
I know you think I'm foolish but you know I'm not
You think I can't tell but I but know you're not
If I thought you told me you know where
Would you still care?
[CHORUS]
Spirit
Never lose faith in me
Spirit
Never lose faith in me
Think I'm not the one? You are not
I know you think of me but you know I'm not
My spirit runs high as it always has
But tell me why I pass?
[CHORUS] (Raise Pitch)
Spirit
Never lose faith in me
Spirit
Never lose faith in me
Once I know, about where to go
I will find the way you know
[CHEERLEADERS]

on't fret. You still get to make 9 requests on the countdown. Plus, you get to ask the next question on The Test. But Melanie wins the ultimate prize.

Melanie:Amerie's performance on Soul Train helped her. That's why she moved up 5 spots.
