Favorite lyric: “This queen don’t need a king.”

[dailysonginterpretation]

“I Love Me” ~Demi Lovato

Why can’t I love myself and not put my self worth in other people? I wish society didn’t tell us we have to be a certain way.

Favorite lyric: “I’m a black belt when I’m beating up on myself, but I’m an expert at giving love to somebody else.”

“Let the Games Begin” ~AJR

Honestly a straight jam. A night out with your friends but it‘s starting to end. You gotta take care of them all.

Favorite lyric: “I'm gonna be a people person in a room of people-people.”

[dailysonginterpretation]

“Even My Dad Does Sometimes” ~Ed Sheeran

It’s written for a friend with cancer, telling them what they’re feeling is okay but to hold on as long as they can. But I like to apply it to my life: it’s okay to be sad and cry, but just hold on and keep going. Live life to its fullest.

Favorite lyric: “Tears remind you you’re alive.”

[dailysonginterpretation]

“Feel Bad” ~A Story Told

I wanna go back to a time when everything was fun and not be stuck in a boring job with the world telling me how I should act and what I should do. Why am I wasting my life following the rules of society? Also I miss you.

Favorite lyric: “I haven't seen half the world. Why am I still sitting here?”

[dailysonginterpretation]

Life sucks, but I’ll make it out. I will be okay one day.

Favorite lyric: “It’s sharing your story knowing all who it may help.”

“Good Enough” ~Little Mix

You never thought I was enough. You left me in the dirt because I’m not perfect. But that’s your problem to deal with.

Favorite lyric: “I know my worth.”

Lyric I’m feeling right now: “Wouldn’t notice if I disappeared.” (I’m feeling a little sad and alone)

[dailysonginterpretation]

“Sometimes” ~Anthony Amorim

Unrequited love fucking sucks. But someday I’ll stop feeling like this.

Favorite lyric: “Someday I’ll be happy, and I hope that you will be too.”

[dailysonginterpretation]

Sorry for being MIA

Sorry for ditching for a while. Life got crazy, and I honestly just forgot. This blog was becoming a chore, which I never intended for it to be. I am back now! I don’t know how long, but I am back!

[dailysonginterpretation]

“Radio Ga Ga” ~Queen

Radio is dying, which sucks since it helped me through my lonely years. So much music all sounds the same nowadays. Still relevant 35 years later.

Favorite lyric: “You made us feel like we could fly. (Radio)”
