Yellow Flicker Beat- Lorde

I'm a princess cut from marble
smoother than a storm
And the scars that mark my body
they're silver and gold
My blood is a flood of rubies
precious stones
It keeps my veins hot
the fires find a home in me

This is the start of how it all ever ends
They used to shout my name
now they whisper it

And now people talk to me I'm slipping out of reach now
People talk to me
and all their faces blur
But I got my fingers laced together and I made a little prison
And I'm locking up everyone that ever laid a finger on me

Silver Springs- Fleetwood Mac

Time cast a spell on you
but you won't forget me
I know I could've loved you
but you would not let me
I'll follow you down 'til the sound of my voice will haunt you
You'll never get away from the sound of the woman that loves you

The Gold- Manchester Orchestra and Phoebe Bridgers

You don't have to hold me anymore
Our cave's collapsing
I don't wanna be me anymore

Ghost- Indigo Girls

There's a letter on the desktop
I dug out of a drawer
The last truce we ever came to
From our adolescent war

You come regular like seasons
Shadowing my dreams

And there's not enough room
In this world for my pain
Signals cross and love gets lost
And time passed makes it plain
Of all my demon spirits I need you the most
I'm in love with your ghost

Dark and dangerous like a secret (don't tell a)
Gets whispered in a hush (soul)
When I wake the things I dreamt about you (don't tell a)
Last night make me blush (soul)
When you kiss me like a lover (like to love her)
Then ya sting me like a viper
I go follow to the river
Play your memory like the Piper

And I feel it like a sickness
How this love is killing me
I'd walk into the fingers of your fire willingly
And dance the edge of sanity
I've never been this close
In love with your ghost

And now I see your face before me
One would launch a thousand ships
To bring your heart back to my island
As the sand beneath me slips
As I burn up in your presence
And I know now how it feels
To be weakened like Achilles
With you always at my heels

And my bitter pill to swallow
Is the silence that I keep
It poisons me, I can't swim free (it poisons me)
The river is too deep
Though I'm baptized by your touch
I am no worse at most (I am all the worse at most)
In love with your ghost

This Is Me Trying- Taylor Swift

I've been having a hard time adjusting
I had the shiniest wheels
now they're rusting
I didn't know if you'd care if I came back
I have a lot of regrets about that

They told me all of my cages were mental
So I got wasted like all my potential
And my words shoot to kill when I'm mad

Tolerate It- Taylor Swift

I made you my temple
my mural
my sky
Now I'm begging for footnotes in the story of your life
Drawing hearts in the byline
Always taking up too much space or time
You assume I'm fine
But what would you do if I

I break free and leave us in ruins
Took this dagger in me and removed it
Gain the weight of you then lose it
Believe me
I could do it

A Fond Farewell- Elliot Smith

I can deal with some physic pain
If it'll slow down my higher brain
Veins full of disappearing ink
Vomiting in the kitchen sink
Disconnecting from the missing link
This is not my life
It's just a fond farewell to a friend
It's not what I'm like
It's just a fond farewell to a friend

A little less than a human being
A little less than a happy high
A little less than a suicide
The only things that you really tried

Storms- Fleetwood Mac

Every hour of fear I spend
My body tries to cry
Living through each empty night
A deadly call inside

But never have I been a blue calm sea
I have always been a storm

Fourth of July- Sufjan Stevens

The evil it spread like a fever ahead
It was night when you died, my firefly
What could I have said to raise you from the dead?

Did you get enough love
my little dove
Why do you cry?
And I'm sorry I left
but it was for the best
Though it never felt right

Teenage Dream- Olivia Rodrigo

Got your whole life ahead of you
you're only 19
But I fear that they already got all the best parts of me

They all say that it gets better
it gets better the more you grow
Yeah, they all say that it gets better
it gets better, but what if I don't?

Who's Afraid of Little Old Me?- Taylor Swift

The scandal was contained
The bullet had just grazed
At all costs, keep your good name
You don't get to tell me you feel bad

 Is it a wonder I broke? 
Let's hear one more joke
Then we could all just laugh until I cry

I was tame, I was gentle 'til the circus life made me mean
"Don't you worry, folks, we took out all her teeth"
Who's afraid of little old me?
Well, you should be

So tell me everything is not about me
But what if it is?
Then say they didn't do it to hurt me
But what if they did?

I wanna snarl and show you just how disturbed this has made me
You wouldn't last an hour in the asylum where they raised me
So all you kids can sneak into my house with all the cobwebs
I'm always drunk on my own tears, isn't that what they all said?
That I'll sue you if you step on my lawn
That I'm fearsome and I'm wretched and I'm wrong

You caged me and then you called me crazy
I am what I am 'cause you trained me
So who's afraid of me?

Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want- The Smiths

Good times for a change
See, the luck I've had
Can make a good man
Turn bad

Haven't had a dream in a long time
See, the life I've had
Can make a good man bad

So for once in my life
Let me get what I want
Lord knows, it would be the first time

Matilda- Harry Styles

Nothing about the way that you were treated
ever seemed especially alarming 'til now

Matilda
you talk of the pain like it's all alright
But I know that you feel like a piece of you's dead inside
You showed me a power that is strong enough to bring sun to the darkest days
It's none of my business
but it's just been on my mind

You can let it go
You can throw a party full of everyone you know
You can start a family who will always show you love
You don't have to be sorry for doing it on your own

November Rain- Guns and Roses

We've been through this such a long long time
Just tryin' to kill the pain

I know it's hard to keep an open heart
When even friends seem out to harm you
But if you could heal a broken heart
Wouldn't time be out to charm you?

And when your fears subside
And shadows still remain
I know that you can love me when there's no one left to blame
So never mind the darkness
we still can find a way
'Cause nothin' lasts forever
even cold November rain

Mayonaise- The Smashing Pumpkins

Fool enough to almost be it
And cool enough to not quite see it
And old enough to always feel this
Always old
I'll always feel this
No more promise
No more sorrow
No longer will I follow
Can anybody hear me?
I just wanna be me

As the World Caves In (acoustic)- Matt Maltese

And as the earth burns to the ground
Oh girl it's you that I lie with
As the atom bomb locks in
Yes, it's you I watch TV with
As the world, as the world caves in

Oh, it's you that I lie with
As the atom bomb drops in
Yes, it's you I welcome death with
As the world, as the world caves in

Twin Size Mattress- The Front Bottoms

It's no big surprise you turned out this way
When they closed their eyes and prayed you would change
And they cut your hair and sent you away

Make sure you kiss your knuckles before you punch me in the face
There are lessons to be learned and consequences for all the stupid things I say
And it's no big surprise you turned out this way
The spark in your eyes
The look on your face

Burning Pile- Mother Mother

It goes, all my troubles on a burning pile
All lit up and I start to smile

Dark Paradise- Lana Del Ray

And there's no remedy for memory
your face is like a melody
It won't leave my head
Your soul is haunting me and telling me that everything is fine
But I wish I was dead

Every time I close my eyes
it's like a dark paradise

All The Things She Said- t.A.T.u

I'm in serious shit
I feel totally lost
If I'm asking for help it's only because
Being with you has opened my eyes
Could I ever believe such a perfect surprise?

All the things she said
All the things she said
Running through my head
Running through my head
Running through my head

Mother looking at me
Tell me what do you see?
Yes, I've lost my mind
Daddy looking at me
Will I ever be free?
Have I crossed the line?

Family Line- Conan Gray

And wonder what I did to deserve this
How could you hurt a little kid?
I can't forget
I can't forgive you

Oh, all that I did to try to undo it
All of my pain and all your excuses
I was a kid but I wasn't clueless
(Someone who loves you wouldn't do this)
All of my past, I tried to erase it
But now I see, would I even change it?
Might share a face and share a last name, but
(We are not the same)

Flares- The Script

Did you lose what won't return?
Did you love but never learn?
The fire's out but still it burns
And no one cares, there's no one there

Did you find it hard to breathe?
Did you cry so much that you could barely see?
You're in the darkness all alone
And no one cares, there's no one there

Did you break but never mend?
Did it hurt so much you thought it was the end?
Lose your heart but don't know when
And no one cares, there's no one there

Everything I Wanted- Billie Eilish

I had a dream
I got everything I wanted
Not what you'd think
And if I'm being honest
It might've been a nightmare
To anyone who might care

And you say, "As long as I'm here
No one can hurt you"

I tried to scream
But my head was underwater
They called me weak
Like I'm not just somebody's daughter

Bass Boat- Zach Bryan

'Cause I was raised by a woman who was hardly impressed
And I carry that shit real deep in my chest

Hayloft II- Mother Mother

Whatever happened to the young, young lovers?
One got shot and the other got lost in
Drugs and punks and blood on the street
Blood, blood on her knees
Bloody history

An eye for an eye, a leg for a leg
A shot in the heart doesn't make it unbreak
She really didn't wanna make it messy
She really, really didn't, but the girl gone cray

She's not a bad kid
She's not a bad kid
But she had to do it
She had to do it
They're not a bad kid
But they had to do it
They couldn't not
They had to face off

Would've been you- Sombr

If anyone could've saved me
It would've been you
It would've been you
It would've been you
If anyone could've changed me
It would've been you
It would've been you
It would've been you

Would you forgive me for

Angry Too- Lola Blanc

And I don't wanna be a monster in the making
I don't wanna be more bitter than sweet
I don't know how to be just standing by blankly
Not getting angry

Does it get your blood boiling?
Does it make you see red?
Do you wanna destroy it?
Does it get in your head?
'Cause it gets my blood boiling
And I'm coming unglued
It would hit you like poison
If you knew what I knew
You would be angry too

And I don't wanna drink the venom they made me
I don't wanna be controlled by the past
Boy if you were me, could you really blame me?
Would make you crazy

Be Nice to Me- The Front Bottoms

There is very little left of me and it's never coming back
There are certain things you ask of me
And there are certain things I'll lack
The beginning, we were winning
But now I'm just making up facts

But you're a killer and I'm your best friend
Think it's unfair, your situation
You say I'm changing
Sorry I didn't know I had to stay the same

I try to write you poems
but the words they don't make sense
The hand tries to grip the pencil
but the fingers are too tense
I try to show emotion
but my eyes won't seem to wet
I'd love to tell you stories
but I can't remember how they went

Look What You Made Me Do- Taylor Swift

I don't like your little games
Don't like your tilted stage
The role you made me play of the fool
No, I don't like you
I don't like your perfect crime
How you laugh when you lie
You said the gun was mine
Isn't cool, no, I don't like you

But I got smarter
I got harder in the nick of time
Honey, I rose up from the dead
I do it all the time
I got a list of names
and yours is in red, underlined

Rät- Penelope Scott

I come from scientists and atheists and White men who kill God
They make technology high quality complex physiological
Experiments and sacrilege in the name of public good
They taught me everything
Just like a daddy should

I was your baby
Your first born
The hot girl in your comp sci class
And I was Darwin's prep school dream
Bred born and raised to kick your ass

All you ever broke were hearts
I can't believe you tore humanity apart
With the very same machines
That could've been our brand new start

And the worst part is
I loved you
I loved you
I loved you it's true
And sometimes I feel like
I still fucking do
I lived here
I loved here
I thought it was true
I'm so embarrassed
I feel abused

Wicked Game - Chris Isaak

The world was on fire and no one could save me but you
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do
I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you
And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you

What a wicked game you play
to make me feel this way
What a wicked thing to do
to let me dream of you
What a wicked thing to say
you never felt this way
What a wicked thing to do
to make me dream of you
