Song lyrics that are supposed to be poetic

Hi! This is for the lyrics homework we have to do. I'm having trouble deciding which song to use, so I'll post both :P. Here is the lyrics to Map of the Problematique by Muse and What I've Done by Linkin Park.

Map of the Problematique- Muse

Fear and panic in the air
I want to be free
From desolation and despair
And I feel like everything I sow is being swept away
Well I refuse to let you go

I can't get it right
Get it right
Since I met you

Loneliness be over
When will this loneliness be over

Life will flash before my eyes
So scattered and lost
I want to touch the other side
And no one
Thinks they are to blame
Why can't we see
That when we bleed we bleed the same

I can't get it right
Get it right
Since I met you

Loneliness be over
When will this loneliness be over
Loneliness be over
When will this loneliness be over

It sounds kind of weird without the music, but it'll make sense with it: Map of the Problematique-Muse

The lyrics say "saw" instead of "sow" in the video, but I'm certain that it's sow. You can even hear that.

What I've Done- Linkin Park

In this farewell
There’s no blood
There’s no alibi
‘Cause I’ve drawn regret
From the truth
Of a thousand lies

So let mercy come
And wash away

What I've done
I'll face myself
To cross out what I've become
Erase myself
And let go of what I've done

Put to rest
What you thought of me
While I clean this slate
With the hands of uncertainty

So let mercy come
And wash away

What I've done
I'll face myself
To cross out what I've become
Erase myself
And let go of what I've done

For what I’ve done
I start again
And whatever pain may come
Today this ends
I’m forgiving what I’ve done

I'll face myself
To cross out what I've become
Erase myself
And let go of what I've done

What I’ve done
Forgiving what I’ve done

I guess my choice is to go with What I've Done, but I still like the lyrics to Map of the Problematique. Also, here is the link to the music: What I've Done- Linkin Park

Don't mind the unusual video, but it's kind of saddening.

I guess that's all. Thank you for reading the lyrics that are supposed to be poetic. Also, I've posted a poll for you to decide which lyrics you like better.
