3 Little Birds

Rise up this mornin'. Smiled with the risin' sun
Three little birds. Is by my doorstep
Singin' sweet songs. Of melodies pure and true
Saying', (this is my message to you)

Don't worry about a thing
'Cause every little thing gonna be alright
Singing' don't worry about a thing
'Cause every little thing gonna be alright

"Trying hard to reach out
But when I tried to speak out
Felt like no one could hear me
Wanted to belong here
But something felt so wrong here
So I prayed I could break away

[Chorus:]
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes 'til I touch the sky
And I'll make a wish
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget all the ones that I love
I'll take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway" Kelly Clarkson - Breakaway

Stand in The Rain - Superchic

She never slows down.
She doesn't know why but she knows that when she's all alone, feels like its all coming down
She won't turn around
The shadows are long and she fears if she cries that first tear, the tears will not stop raining down

[CHORUS]
So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it's all crashing down
You stand through the pain
You won't drown
And one day, whats lost can be found
You stand in the rain

She won't make a sound
Alone in this fight with herself and the fears whispering if she stands she'll fall down
She wants to be found
The only way out is through everything she's running from wants to give up and lie down.

[CHORUS]
So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it's all crashing down
You stand through the pain
You won't drown
And one day, whats lost can be found
You stand in the rain

So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it's all crashing down
Stand through the pain
You won't drown
And one day, whats lost can be found

[CHORUS]
So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it's all crashing down
You stand through the pain
You won't drown
And one day, whats lost can be found
You stand in the rain

Like I'm Gonna Lose You
Meghan Trainor
I found myself dreaming
In silver and gold
Like a scene from a movie
That every broken heart knows

We were walking on moonlight
And you pulled me close
Split second and you disappeared
And then I was all alone

I woke up in tears
With you by my side
A breath of relief
And I realized
No, we're not promised tomorrow

So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
And I'm gonna hold you like I'm saying goodbye
Wherever we're standing
I won't take you for granted
'Cause we'll never know when, when we'll run out of time

So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you

In the blink of an eye
Just a whisper of smoke
You could lose everything
The truth is you never know

So I'll kiss you longer baby
Any chance that I get
I'll make the most of the minutes
And love with no regrets

Let's take our time to say what we want
Here's what we got before it's all gone
'Cause no, we're not promised tomorrow

So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
I'm gonna hold you like I'm saying goodbye
Wherever we're standing
I won't take you for granted
'Cause we'll never know when, when we'll run out of time

So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you

I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
I'm gonna hold you like I'm saying goodbye
Wherever we're standing
I won't take you for granted
'Cause we'll never know when, when we'll run out of time

So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you

Pink Floyd
Wish You Were Here

"Did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk-on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?

Voice of an angel-liam lawton

When I’m lying in the darkness
And I’m half afraid to sleep
I keep thinking of tomorrow
And the thoughts that lie so deep
Then I pray in talking whispers
Cause I know that somewhere near
Is the presence of an angel
Come to hold me through my fear

And who are you who guides me
My messenger of light
Will you walk beside me now
Beyond the day and night
Who are you who guides me
With words I cannot write
It’s the voice of an angel,
The voice of an angel,
The voice of an angel
Come to hold me close this night

Then I close my eyes
And open the window of my heart
For I know that you will listen
Even though I kiss the dark
And as I’m slowly breathing
O the night just lingers on
I hear the voice of an angel
Come to calm me with the song

And who are you who guides me
My messenger of light
Will you walk beside me now
Beyond the day and night
Who are you who guides me
With words I cannot write
It’s the voice of an angel,
The voice of an angel,
The voice of an angel
Come to hold me close this night

Fight song -rachel platten
Like a small boat
On the ocean
Sending big waves
Into motion
Like how a single word
Can make a heart open
I might only have one match
But I can make an explosion
And all those things I didn't say
Wrecking balls inside my brain
I will scream them loud tonight
Can you hear my voice this time?
This is my fight song
Take back my life song
Prove I'm alright song
My power's turned on
Starting right now I'll be strong
I'll play my fight song
And I don't really care if nobody else believes
'Cause I've still got a lot of fight left in me
Losing friends and I'm chasing sleep
Everybody's worried about me
In too deep
Say I'm in too deep (in too deep)
And it's been two years I miss my home
But there's a fire burning in my bones
Still believe
Yeah, I still believe
And all those things I didn't say
Wrecking balls inside my brain
I will scream them loud tonight
Can you hear my voice this time?
This is my fight song
Take back my life song
Prove I'm alright song
My power's turned on
Starting right now I'll be strong
I'll play my fight song
And I don't really care if nobody else believes
'Cause I've still got a lot of fight left in me
A lot of fight left in me

When you believe-whitney

The Verve - Appalachian Springs

Does anybody know where we're really gonna go?
I was wondering if we got that real soul
You know that thing you cannot trade or ever own
Does anybody know where we're really gonna go?
I was wondering if we got that real soul
You know that thing we cannot trade or ever own

Solitude, a sacred mood
Appalachian Springs, all my days
Took a step to the left, took a step to the right
Saw myself, and I wasn't quite right - are you?
(And I wasn't quite right)

Fourteen Black Paintings
Peter Gabriel

From the pain come the dream
From the dream come the vision
From the vision come the people
From the people come the power
From this power come the change.

If I'm not mistaken, Nelson Mandela is credited with the words. Peter just wrote the music. Still, powerful, powerful stuff!

I've been listening to "Something I can never have" by nine inch nails, but I prefer the cover by flyleaf.
I've pasted the lyrics and my input on them down below.


"Something I Can Never Have"

I still recall the taste of your tears.
Echoing your voice just like the ringing in my ears. <<< to my childhood self, before the trauma
My favorite dreams of you still wash ashore.
Scraping through my head 'till I don't want to sleep anymore.

[Chorus:]
You make this all go away.
You make this all go away.
I'm down to just one thing.
And I'm starting to scare myself.
You make this all go away. <<< me to my future self, in the hope that I get help eventually
You make this all go away.
I just want something.
I just want something I can never have

You always were the one to show me how
Back then I couldn't do the things that I can do now. <<<to my trauma itself,it made me colder and twisted my image of the world
This thing is slowly taking me apart.
Grey would be the color if I had a heart.

Come on tell me

[Chorus]

In this place it seems like such a shame.
Though it all looks different now, << though its been a few years, I still taste the pain of the event and nothings changed
I know it's still the same
Everywhere I look you're all I see.
Just a fading f*cking reminder of who I used to be. < is about my childhood and how I can barely remember my old self

Come on tell me

[Chorus]

I just want something I can never have << on wanting my innocence and my unknown self back.
