To be specific I'm more into alternative rock than anything else. No rap(hip-hop), punk-rock, heavy metal(Screaming) or anything weird and bizzarre please. I like songs that have good lyrics, rhythm, sound, and good overall music. To illustrate what kinds of music and songs I like, I will list a few for you to better understand what I like:

* Lifehouse - You And Me
* Teddy Geiger - For You I Will(Confidence)
* Blink182 - All The Small Things, What's My Age Again?
* The All-American Rejects - Dirty Little Secret, Move Along
* Story Of The Year - Anthem Of Our Dying Day
* Maroon5 - This Love
* New Found Glory - All Downhill From Here
* YellowCard - Way Away, Ocean Avenue, Empty
Apartment
* Dashboard Confessional - Screaming Infidelities, Hands
Down
* Relient K - Who I Am Hates Who Ive Been
* Trapt - Headstrong, Echo
* Brand New - The Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows
* My Chemical Romance - Helena, I'm Not Okay
* SimplePlan

Something similar or better, thank you

Judging from your band list, I reckon you might actually like punk rock without even realising it. For example, the million-and-one bands alive today – such as Blink182 and Simple Plan – really do draw a teeny bit of inspiration from the original punks.

Try Generation X (Billy Idol's old band) for size.

I’ll now list a few of the most prominent bands from the ‘post punk’ genre (not punk, but rather, the ‘alternative rock’ of the 1980s’) that might go well with your CD collection:

Joy Division; The Cure; Echo and the Bunnymen; The Mission U.K.; the Jesus & Mary Chain.

Also check out these Shoegazing bands: Ride; My Bloody Valentine.

Recommendations for the 1990s: Orgy (industrial rock/pop); Veruca Salt (post-grunge-rock/ pop).
