I spent a lot of the year in tears and in transit, and it’s all because of these little pieces of heaven.
Up Out My Face - Mariah Carey feat. Nicki Minaj
even the Harvard University Graduating Class of 2010 could put us back together again.
the other girl is not like me, she’s prettier and skinnier, she has a college degree, I dropped out when I was 17, if I could only get her out of the picture, then he would know how much I want him.
I really wanna go out / I really wanna go out and stop and see your day / you really wanna hole up / you really wanna stay inside and sleep the light away / well I know what’s good / exactly cause I have been there before / yeah I know what’s good / exactly those things night cannot behold
Show Me Your Stuff - Diamond Rings
save your anesthetic for the boy next door / nothing in your needle knocks me out no more.
I know way too many people here right now / that I didn’t know last year / who the fuck are y’all?
Weights and Measures - Dry The River
you’ve made your decision / now get up and leave / the familiar swing of the woodcutter’s swing to the tree / I’ll fall in the forest / to elbows and knees / and it won’t make a sound since there’s no one around here to see
Under The Sheets - Ellie Goulding
you left a handprint on the door / like all the boys before
Dog Days - Florence and the Machine
and I never wanted anything from you / except everything and what was left after that too / happiness hit her like a bullet in the head / struck from a great height from someone who should have known better than that
whether you’re high or low / whether you’re high or low / you got to tip on the tightrope
and the feeling’s a lie / because the snake, it bit me/ when I wasn’t awake / and the scripts, they lie / I have been poisoned / from all the things I take
Kiss Me Again - Jessica Lea Mayfield
you got me where you want me / but, I ain’t all there / my head is gone, my brain is fried / I’m standing right here.
didn’t take long to sing our love/ was a harvest feast, was a hand to glove / when winter came you couldn’t stand to sit / you just the same never burnt but lit / with a world at war and my thoughts on you / I didn’t care to fall, there wasn’t much to do / and the worst and best of all we knew / stayed out to rust in the morning dew
Come Back - Jon-Rae and the River
if you go, I’ll come back / every night, I’ll come back / if you leave, come back / to my arms
Who Will Survive in America - Kanye West
What does Webster say about soul?
that girl should have been a mansion
never let a woman go even when you know / your soul / your love/ your blood/ treasure every beating heart that sets your soul on fire / love will set your soul on fire.
it’s far too early in the morning / to be trying to call you / and far too early in the daytime / to be thinking about that / but I am
He’s Not a Boy - The Likewhen he says you’re beautiful / it’s not a line / but in the morning you might find / that he might have changed his mind/ he got lonely for a love / for just one night
Cards and Quarters - Local Natives
means to ends
Hey, hey fellas! / What? / You gotta treat a lady right, right? / Right!
White Blank Page - Mumford & Sons
you desired my attention / but denied my affections / my affections / but tell me now, where was my fault / in loving you with my whole heart?
Love Is All - The Tallest Man on Earth
and I’ll throw you in the current that I stand upon so still / love is all, from what I’ve heard, but my heart’s learned to kill / oh, mine has learned to kill / oh, I said I could rise / from the harness of our goals / here come the tears / but like always, I let them go / just let them go
now it’s your turn / you will tie me to the tree
they want to be loved by you
