Don’t I seem better
Don’t I seem just fine
I’ve been writing you love letters one at a time

…

So please push me away
It’s the least you can do
My eyes are sore, my feet are tired
I’m sick of chasing you

I am your sinking stone
I’d rather be alone than drag you down and pick you up
Haven’t you been through enough?

I am the cruel one
Don’t know how I’ve become
A movie where the acting shows somebody you used to know
You used to know

Oh no
I don’t want to wake up feeling like I’m no one
I don’t want to wake up wondering how did I become the cruel one

It’s quicker than you think
Sadness spreads out like ink on the road and on the sea
On the roof and balcony

I was using loneliness and now it’s using me
There’s nothing left to give to you
One thing left to say to you

Oh no
I don’t want to wake up feeling like I’m no one
I don’t want to wake up wondering how did I become
How did I become

I don’t want to waste my time
Standing in a waiting line
When I know what I want, and you’re just what I want
I don’t want to waste my days, worrying what they’ll say
Now I know what I want, you’re just what I want

Oh no, what’s this?
A spider web and I’m caught in the middle
So I turn to run
And thought of all the stupid things I’d done

And I never meant to cause you trouble
I never meant to do you wrong
And ah, well if I ever caused you trouble
Oh, no I never meant to do you harm

To Whom It May Concern
The Civil Wars

Why are you so far from me?
In my arms is where you ought to be
How long will you make me wait?
I don’t know how much more I can take

I’ve missed you, but I haven’t met you
Oh, but, I want to
How I do

Slowly counting down the days till I finally know your name
The way your hand feels around my waist
The way you laugh
The way your kisses taste

I’ve missed you, but I haven’t met you
Oh, but, I want to
How I do

I’ve missed you, but I haven’t met you
Oh how I’ve missed you, but I haven’t met you
Oh, but I want to
Oh, how I want to

Dear whoever you might be,
I’m still waiting patiently

Jar of Hearts
Christina Perri

No I can’t take one more step towards you
Cause all that’s waiting is regret
And don’t you know I’m not your ghost anymore
You lost the love I loved the most
I’ve learned to live half alive, and now you want me one more time

And who do you think you are, running around leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts, and tearing love apart
You’re gonna catch a cold from the ice inside your soul
So don’t come back for me, who do you think you are?

I hear you’re asking all around
If I am anywhere to be found
But I have grown too strong
To ever fall back in your arms
I’ve learned to live half alive, and now you want me one more time

And who do you think you are, running around leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts, and tearing love apart
You’re gonna catch a cold from the ice inside your soul
So don’t come back for me, who do you think you are?

It took so long just to feel all right
Remember how to put back the light in my eyes
I wish I had missed the first time that we kissed
Cause you broke all your promises
And now you’re back, you’re looking to get me back

And who do you think you are, running around leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts, and tearing love apart
You’re gonna catch a cold from the ice inside your soul
So don’t come back for me, don’t come back at all

And who do you think you are, running around leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts, tearing love apart
You’re gonna catch a cold from the ice inside your soul
Don’t come back for me, don’t come back at all

Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?

Can’t Let Go
Landon Pigg

Well you’re the closest thing I have
To bring up in a conversation
About love that didn’t last
But I could never call you mine
Cause I could never call myself yours
And if we were really meant to be
Well then we’d justify destiny
It’s not that our love died
It just never really bloomed

No, I can’t let go, no I can’t let go of you
You’re holding me back without even trying to
I can’t let go, I can’t move on from the past
Without lifting a finger you’re holding me back

And then we saw our past diverge
And I guess I felt okay about it
Until you got with another man
And then I couldn’t understand
Why it bothered me so
No, we didn’t die
We just never had a chance to grow

No, I can’t let go, no I can’t let go of you
You’re holding me back without even trying to
I can’t let go, I can’t move on from the past
Without lifting a finger you’re holding me back

And it might not make much sense
To you or any of my friends
But somehow still you affect the things I do
And you can’t lose what you never had
I don’t understand why I feel sad
Every time I see you out with someone new

No, I can’t let go, no I can’t let go of you
You’re holding me back without even trying to
I can’t let go, I can’t move on from the past
Without lifting a finger you’re holding me back

No, I can’t let go, no I can’t let go of you
You’re holding me back without even trying to
I can’t let go, I can’t move on from the past
Without lifting a finger you’re holding me back

Pills
The Perishers

I hope my smile can distract you
I hope my fists can fight for two
So it never has to show
And you’ll never know

I hope my love can blind you
I hope my arms can bind you
So you’ll never have to see
What we’ve grown to be

One may think we’re alright
But we need pills to sleep at night
We need lies to make it through the day
We’re not okay

One may think we’re doing fine
But if I had to lay it on the line
We’re losing ground with every passing day
We’re not okay

But that’s one thing I would never
One thing I would never
That’s one thing I would never say to you

Breakeven
The Script

I’m still alive but I’m barely breathing
Just prayed to a god that I don’t believe in
Cause I got time while she got freedom
Cause when a heart breaks no it don’t break even

Her best days will be some of my worst
She finally met a man that’s gonna put her first
While I’m wide awake she’s no trouble sleeping
Cause when a heart breaks no it don’t break even, even no

What am I supposed to do when the best part of me was always you?
What am I supposed to say when I’m all choked up and you’re okay?
I’m falling to pieces, yeah
I’m falling to pieces

They say bad things happen for a reason
But no wise words gonna stop me bleeding
Cause she’s moved on while I’m still grieving
And when a heart breaks, no it don’t break even, even, no

What am I gonna do when the best part of me was always you?
What am I supposed to say when I’m all choked up and you’re okay?
I’m falling to pieces, yeah
I’m falling to pieces, yeah
I’m falling to pieces
I’m falling to pieces

You got his heart and my heart and none of the pain
You took your suitcase, I took the blame
Now I’m trying to make sense of what little remains
Cause you left me with no love, with no love to my name

I’m still alive but I’m barely breathing
Just prayed to a god that I don’t believe in
Cause I got time while she got freedom
Cause when a heart breaks, no it don’t break
No it don’t break, no it don’t break even, no

What am I gonna do when the best part of me was always you?
What am I supposed to say when I’m all choked up and you’re okay?
I’m falling to pieces, yeah
I’m falling to pieces, yeah
I’m falling to pieces
I’m falling to pieces

Oh, it don’t break even, no

I don’t wanna be anything other than what I’ve been trying to be lately
All I have to do is think of me and I have peace of mind
I’m tired of looking around rooms wondering what I gotta do
Or who I’m supposed to be
I don’t wanna be anything other than me

I Don’t Wanna Be - Kate Voegele

Hiling
Silent Sanctuary

Minsan di ko maiwasang isipin ka
Lalo na sa tuwing nag-iisa
Ano na kayang balita sa iyo
Naiisip mo rin kaya ako

Simula nang ikaw ay mawala
Wala nang dahilan para lumuha
Damdamin pilit ko nang tinatago
Hinahanap ka pa rin ng aking puso
Parang kulang nga kapag ika’y wala

At hihiling sa mga bituin
Na minsan pa sana ako’y iyong mahalin
Hihiling kahit dumilim
Ang aking daan na tatahakin
Patungo…

Alaala mong tinangay na ng hangin
Sa langit ko na lamang ba yayakapin
Nasan ka na kaya, aasa ba sa wala

At hihiling sa mga bituin
Na minsan pa sana ako’y iyong mahalin
Hihiling kahit dumilim
Ang aking daan na tatahakin
Patungo sa iyo, patungo sa iyo

Ipipikit ko ang aking mata dahil
Nais ka lamang mahagkan
Nais ka lamang masilayan
Kahit alam kong tapos na
Kahit alam kong wala ka na…

At hihiling sa mga bituin
Na minsan pa sana ako’y iyong mahalin
Hihiling kahit dumilim
Ang aking daan na tatahakin
Patungo sa iyo, patungo sa iyo

I’ll Be There For You
The Rembrandts

So no one told you life was gonna be this way
Your job’s a joke, you’re broke, your lovelife’s D. O. A.
It’s like you’re always stuck in second gear
When it hasn’t been your day, your week, your month, or even your year

But I’ll be there for you (when the rain starts to pour)
I’ll be there for you (like I’ve been there before)
I’ll be there for you (cause you’re there for me too)

You’re still in bed at ten, and work began at eight
You’ve burned your breakfast, so far, things are going great
Your mother warned you there’d be days like these
But she didn’t tell you when the world has brought you down to your knees

That I’ll be there for you (when the rain starts to pour)
I’ll be there for you (like I’ve been there before)
I’ll be there for you (cause you’re there for me too)

No one could ever know me
No one could ever see me
Seems you’re the only one who knows, what it’s like to be me
Someone to face the day with
Make it through all the rest with
Someone I’ll always laugh with
Even at my worst
I’m best with you

It’s like you’re always stuck in second gear
When it hasn’t been your day, your week, your month, or even your year

I’ll be there for you (when the rain starts to pour)
I’ll be there for you (like I’ve been there before)
I’ll be there for you (cause you’re there for me too)
I’ll be there for you
I’ll be there for you
I’ll be there for you (cause you’re there for me too)

Belong
Cary Brothers

Wake up lonely with you by my side
One more night it doesn’t feel
There are movies playing in your eyes
You dream of our fortunes

But you’re wrong
I don’t belong to you

The moon is the only friend I have outside
One more drink and I’ll be healed
I told you the words and then knew it was a lie
I wish I could offer an appeal

You’re wrong
I don’t belong
You’re wrong
I don’t belong to you

What I’d give for that first night when you were mine
Tried with all that I have to keep you alive

I wasn’t taught this way
With a thousand things to say
I was born with a broken heart
What I’d give for that first night when you were mine
Thought you were mine

So I’ll put this cigarette to bed
Pull some sheets from off your side
I put my arm around you safe in the night
Still dreaming of fortune

But you’re wrong
I don’t belong
You’re wrong
I don’t belong
I don’t belong
