My Life in Song Lyrics

Lyrics that get stuck in my head, over and over, usually because I find they express what I am going through at the time. Or I just think they are beautiful.

Ain't you ever seen a princess be a bad bitch?

Ariana Grande, "Bad Decisions"

[poeticlyrics]

"'Cause I have sent for a warrior from on my knees make me a Hercules I was meant to be a warrior, please - make me a Hercules" - "Hercules" by Sara Bareilles

[poeticlyrics]

"And with one kiss You inspired a fire of devotion that lasts for twenty years What kind of man loves like this? To let me dangle at a cruel angle"

[poeticlyrics]

No more dreaming like a girl/ So in love with the wrong one

Blinding, Florence + The Machine

Arsonist’s Lullaby by Hozier

When I was a child, I'd sit for hours Staring into open flame Something in it had a power, Could barely tear my eyes away

All you have is your fire... And the place you need to reach - Don't you ever tame your demons But always keep 'em on a leash

"Old Flame" by Kimbra

Old flame, you're still the one that holds me Can't you feel it burning? Can't you feel it burning still? Old flame, I fell for your inferno Where did all the love go? Can't you feel the wind blow you closer to me?

Songs that ruin me

[poeticlyrics]

"Difícil" by Juanes

Y quiero gritar y quiero gritar. Por qué se acabó? Por qué terminó? Si supuestamente esto era para siempre. Por qué se acabó? Por qué terminó así? A dónde fue nuestro amor? jardín que sembramos los dos. A dónde fue nuestro amor? el viento se lo llevó.

[poeticlyrics]

Magic by Coldplay

And if you were to ask me, after all that we've been through: "Still believe in magic?"

"Yes I do."

Oh, yes I do.

Yes I do.

Oh, yes I do.

Of course I do.

[poeticlyrics]

Love it when they call me legs / in the morning buy me eggs / watch your heart when we're together / boys like you love me forever.

"Boys, Boys, Boys" by Lady Gaga

You and I by Jason Mraz

"And it's okay if you have to go away Oh just remember the telephone works both ways And if I never ever hear them ring If nothing else I'll think the bells inside Have finally found you someone else and that's okay Cause I'll remember everything you sang."

[poeticlyrics]

There's one thing I want to say, so I'll be brave. You were what I wanted, I gave what I gave. I'm not sorry I met you, I'm not sorry it's over, I'm not sorry there's nothing to save. I'm not sorry, there's nothing to save...

"Your Ex-Lover is Dead" by Stars

[poeticlyrics]

"Hard Out Here" by Lilly Allen

"I suppose I should tell you what this bitch is thinking

You can find me in the studio and not in the kitchen

I won't be braggin' bout my cars, or talking about my chains

Don't need to shake my ass for you 'cause I've got a brain.

If I told you bout my sex life, you'd call me a slut

but when boys be talking 'bout their bitches, no one's making a fuss

There's a glass ceiling to break, uhuh

there's money to make,

And now it's time to speed it up 'cause I can't move in this place.

Sometimes it's hard to find the words to say,

I'll go ahead and say them anyway...

Forget your balls and grow a pair of tits.

It's hard, it's hard, it's hard out here

for a bitch.

[poeticlyrics]

You're as sharp as a knife, and you fit like a glove. That is no way to live, that is no way to love.

"Salt Skin" by Ellie Goulding

[poeticlyrics]

I don't ask for much, just be honest with me.

"Be Honest" by Jason Mraz

Rock 'n' Roll Lifestyle by Cake

Excess ain’t rebellion You’re drinking what their selling Your self-destruction doesn’t hurt them Your chaos won't convert them
