1. Secrets – Good Charlotte

In the dark
In the darkness you will find
Dirty little secrets we all hide
Cause we all have a darker side
A place we keep where no one else will find

Cause everybody wants to hide their secrets away
Nobody wants to stand up to the pain

[Nobody knows what he had done – he had hurt his wife without even knowing it himself, by isolating himself from her because of his work, hiding the body that she had killed, attempting to commit suicide after her death. The past pains him, and he tries to hide it.]

2. These Bones – Dashboard Confessional

I need the guilt and the company
I need the chance to be judged
And then long forgotten

Lately I just can't shake it
I count the days in
seconds and minutes
Hours and hours are
subtle as shards of
glass
In the skin

There's a story hidden
Underneath
If you dig in deep
Will you find relief?

[After his wife’s suicide, he felt guilty that he is the major reason for her death, and time passed slowly in those days without her.]

3. Untitled – Simple Plan

And I can't stand the pain
And I can't make it go away
No I can't stand the pain

I've made my mistakes
got nowhere to run

And I can't erase the things that I've done
No I can't

[He knew he had made a mistake, but there is no turning back. What is done is done.]

4. Let You Down – Three Days Grace

When you finally trust me
Finally believe in me

I will let you down
I’ll let you down, I’ll
When do you finally trust me
Finally believe in me

[He felt like he had let her down. When she finally trust him enough to marry him, all he did was abandoning her unknowingly because of his work.]

5. Goodbye (I’m Sorry) – Jamestown Story

Life is so meaningless, there is nothing worth a smile.
So goodbye, I'll miss you.




And I'm sorry, but this is my fate.
Everything is worthless, no one who wants me to stay.
And I'm sorry, but I've waited too long.
So here's my goodbye, no one will cry over me.
I'm not worth any tears.

[He had attempted to commit suicide after her death.] 

 6. This Night – Black Lab

 There are things I regret
Cause you can't forgive
You can't forget

 I know I'm not forgiven
But I hope that I'll be
given some peace


There's mistakes that I've made
But I've made them my way

 [He had made a mistake, and he regretted making them.] 
 

7. Faithless - Shattersphere

 My arms can't hold back the loneliness
I've felt since I lost sight
My arms can't hold back what my hands
Have already deceived

 So much is different
So much has changed
So many reasons why I don't want to see my face

[After his wife’s suicide, his perspective on life changed radically.]
