Do y'all know how long it took for me to make this list? Turns out I don't even ship that many people and it took hours of scrolling through all my lists of consumed media to compile out which people I actually want to see together.
Bottom right isn't 100% agreeable, but I think it'll be funny if they get together. They did have a briefly canon stint on-screen.

Woke up on the wrong side of rock bottom
Ain't we always looking for a bluer sky?
If you're ever gonna find a silver lining it's gotta be a cloudy day
The lemonade keeps turning into lemons
You wear your heart on a ripped unraveled sleeve
You say you're just unlucky but luck ain't what you need
You gotta get a little dirt on your hands
You’re gonna have to go to the dance
If you wanna find the honey you can’t be scared of the bees
If you wanna see the forest you’re gonna have to look past the trees
Anywhere beside you is a place that I’ll call home
Same hurt in every heart
We get bored so we get married
Just like dust we settle in this town
On this broken merry go round
We hold on to high school love
Hoping that my luck would change
I let the summer fill my lungs
A million little wishes float across the sky
It's a waste of breath and it's a waste of time I know
Cause just like him you always leave me crying
Sent you dancing on the breeze
I spent my wishes on a weed thinking it could change my world
Falling stars and lucky pennies have let me down so many times before
Swear I’m never coming back again
Got the sunshine on my shoulders
Got a fistful of four leaf clovers
You can't have your cake and eat it too
Having it all is just a state of mind
I got a big smile on my face
It's the best one I can fake
I'm as happy as half a heart can do
You sure look real pretty in your glass house
You probably think you’re too good to take the trash out
It’s a real fine line between telling a joke and turning the knife
Don’t wreck my reputation let me wreck my own
You’re getting to close to me with all your negativity
Just trying to make a little difference
You screwed everybody over in this town
There ain’t nothing between you and the cold hard ground
Keep running your mouth and stretching the truth
You just might find a hole in your parachute
Whatever gets you high will always bring you down
Gotten too far off the map
Not so sure I can get back.
Was I the one who drifted off?
Did I take advantage of good love?
What good is love without the trust
Just holding out for love again
Keep it to yourself if you think that you still love me
Make it someone else when you’re drunk and it’s late
If you walk up to me like it ain't what it is
I know that it ain't gonna end with a kiss
Can't separate the salt from the sugar
Can’t tell anymore if you’re the rabbit or the snake
Below the cut you will find #258 various song lyrics for otp/brotp/notp tags. I started this over a year ago, forgot about it and stuck it in my drafts. I was going to add to it but I’ve lost all inspiration for that, so, here you go. Enjoy.
add just a few too many xs and os.
a fire blows when you speak.
am i still enough?
and i know you know i on’t know which way to go to lose you.
and i’m lying alone in my bed wondering why love makes me feel like i’m dead.
any minute i’ll walk through that door.
anytime you need a friend i’m gonna be by your side.
a teardrop in your palm.
baby i don’t think i can love you.
baby let’s don’t call this love.
baby you gave me a taste now i’m wasted.
call me out just to get a little higher.
call me up; not this time.
call your bluff; not this time.
can you hear me calling?
come on skinny love what happened here?
could you ever love a man like me?
could you give me a shot and i’ll work with what i’ve got?
does the sight of me wanting you drive you crazy?
do i deserve this? okay maybe yeah.
do i have your love?
do i still turn you on at all when i kiss you baby?
don’t know what you were thinking; you were doing.
don’t try to tell me she ain’t worth it.
do you have to let it linger?
everything about you stops me from loving you.
every time i let you stay the night.
get a little taste of what i’m into.
girl you got me like a bug bite and now you’re under my skin.
girl you hit me harder than a freight train right in the middle of my membrane.
give me something i never know.
give to me your leather; take from me my lace.
gonna kiss you in the daylight out on the beach.
gonna take more than just time.
hearing your voice i’m overjoyed.
here i come.
here’s to the mondays; watching all the cars on the freeway.
here’s to us.
honey i’m onto your tricks.
how can i say this without breaking?
how wonderful life is with you in the world.
i ain’t got a thing to do; can i sit here next to you?
i can hold onto you somehow in this burning house.
i could be yours.
i don’t care what they say anymore.
i don’t know what i would do if i was without you and even though i am i’m always thinking about you.
i don’t think they’d understand it.
i don’t want them to know the way i loved you.
i don’t want this to end.
i don’t want to keep a secret.
i’d wait up for you almost every night.
i called you at home.
i cannot overstate it; i will be overjoyed.
i can’t cope.
i can’t forget.
i can’t wait until the next time we meet.
i could take you back but people don’t really change.
i feel us drowning in a sea spilled from a cup.
if i can’t have you get out get out get out get out of my heart.
i find it hard not to look your way but i get in what i can.
if i should lose my way; give up or go astray; please let me know.
if you could get by trying not to lie things wouldn’t be so confused.
if you miss me kiss me one last time at least for old time’s sake.
if you want; we’ll share this life.
i got it so so bad.
i hope i get to see you.
i just can’t let you go.
i knew when only you and i were standing here.
i knew with you to light my nights somehow i’d get by.
i know all your secrets and i promise you i’m gonna keep them.
i know i did you wrong.
i know just what’s going down when you come around.
i know the sun is beating down wherever you may be.
i know you miss me just like i miss you.
i know you’re out there somewhere.
i know you used to love me but that was yesterday.
i know you used to love me in every way.
i’ll be there when you are feeling clueless.
i’ll make sure you don’t forget me again.
i’ll see you in the evening.
i’ll stay here with you until this dream is gone.
i loved and i loved and i lost you and it hurts like hell.
i’m drowning in these memories.
i’m from the lonestar state; i’m ready to bring you in.
i’m gonna find a way to make you mine.
i’m gonna pack up my bags and i’m gonna go away.
i’m gonna run to you.
i’m gonna seal your fate; make you pay for all of your sins.
i’m gonna show you.
i’m halfway there.
i’m hiding and hoping my face ain’t too red.
i’m hurting so bad ‘cause you don’t treat me right.
i’m in so deep.
i might’ve thought that we were one.
i’m never far behind you.
i’m not trying to fall.
i’m not your beauty queen.
i’m not yours baby you’re not mine.
i’m packing up my bags and i’m going far away.
i’m sheltered by your heart.
i need a sign to let me know you’re here.
i need you to love me.
i need you today.
it doesn’t matter if we change their minds.
i tell myself don’t get caught too deep cause i know by now you’re not coming for me.
i tell myself move along.
i tell myself you were all wrong but i know by now wrong was right for me.
it must have been good but i lost it somehow.
it must have been love but it’s over now.
i try to let you go.
it’s been awhile since i saw your face; maybe it’s helped me move on.
it’s hard to lose the chosen one.
it’s not me; it’s you.
it’s probably the end.
i should’ve known better; now it hurts much more.
is that the way we stand?
i swear these words are true.
i swore i would be true and honey so did you.
i think you’re lovely enough to put up with it all.
i thought of you and where you’d gone.
i thought nothing could go wrong but i was wrong.
i thought the world of you.
i took and broke your heart and your world was torn apart.
it won’t take too long for my love to coax.
i’ve been sleepwalking too close to the fire but it’s the only place that i can hold you tight.
i’ve had my eye on you all night.
i wake up lonely.
i want a reason for the way things have to be.
i want you back here can’t you see?
i will tell you secrets nobody knows.
i wish you said something mean made me glad that you said goodbye.
i wish you were a ship that was guided by the touch of my lips.
i won’t give up if you don’t give up.
i won’t throw it all away with everything.
keep your hands off of me.
lately i’ve been going crazy ‘cause i want you baby.
laugh a bit too long at the worst of my jokes.
let me be the one to make it right.
let me come over.
let’s go another round til the sky is falling down.
love isn’t all that it seems; i did you wrong.
maybe we can get a drink and just catch up.
maybe you’re scared you’ll be let down.
midnight eyes oh you came as a surprise.
moving in for a hug like you don’t know i’m coming undone.
my baby’s already got all of my love.
my best friend til the end no pretend.
my gift is my song and this one’s for you.
never once a lie not until tonight.
new adventures on the way.
no matter what i’ll get there.
now all you do is just treat me cold.
now it’s said and done and i’m sorry.
of her i’m awfully fond.
our language is sacred though people try to solve it.
out of all of the places in this little town you had to come walking in here and sit down.
play me like boy you’re never gonna get me.
please refrain from opening skies.
right where we belong.
saw you shining in the starlight.
see in the reflection the same single man that had taken you for granted.
see you at a party and you look the same.
send me a postcard though you live so close.
she ain’t you.
she may be pretty; she’s something new; but that means nothing.
she’s got your exact same zodiac sign.
she’s got your hair and she’s got your eyes.
she’s the only one who can.
shoot me that look i’ve been dying to see.
since we’ve been over been trying like crazy to get you out of my head.
so hard to see the similarities.
so i won’t make my worst mistake; turn around and let you go.
so sweet that you make me sick.
spending all my waking time forgetting about you.
suddenly my choice is clear.
sure i might be rude but it’s just your attitude.
take the picture off the wall it doesn’t make me happy no more.
that girl’s my best friend.
that smile on your face like summer.
there’s an air of silence in the bedroom and all around.
there’s no need to play pretend.
the two of us went up in smoke.
the summer’s not hot til you show up.
the summer’s not hot without you.
the summer won’t start without you.
the way that your hand keeps touching mine.
think about the truth; all i gave to you.
think you’re all about me but i’m all about you.
this is more than just a little thing baby for sure.
touch me now.
true love doesn’t cost a thing.
trying to take what’s lost and broke and make it right.
turn the lights down and let me show you it’s true.
up in the morning tangled in sheets.
was it just a game to you?
we could be a rumor; never be sure.
we don’t need to keep it hush.
we ended right.
we finally found our way.
we’ll laugh at all the shakers and movers.
we play the moment on repeat.
we’re klutzy but so lucky that i always have you to catch me.
we’re partners in crime.
were you lying all the time?
whatever gets heavy give it up now.
when you told me you’d leave i felt like i couldn’t breathe.
when i’m halfway to your heart you have to let me now.
when i walked into your house i knew i’d never want to leave.
when nobody understands you well i do.
when the love starts burning you’ve got to do what’s right.
why can’t you be cold like any good ex would do?
why can’t you look off somewhere if you catch me staring at you?
why don’t you stay?
why would you tell me that you’d call me up sometime?
why you gotta tell me that i’m looking good?
why you wanna make me keep wanting you?
why you wanna show up in an old t-shirt that i love?
wish that we could go back in time; i’d be the one you thought you’d find.
would you mind closing the bedroom door?
you already have my heart.
you always really knew i just wanna be with you.
you and me oh yeah we’re seamless.
you and me together; take on the world forever.
you call me up when you’re feeling uninspired.
you can’t hear me cry.
you caused my heart to bleed.
you could be my dirty secret.
you could leave a toothbrush at my place.
you could meet me in the backseat.
you cut the ties with knives of lies.
you did not break me.
you don’t have to rush.
you don’t have to try too hard.
you don’t know her like i do.
you don’t know what we’ve been through.
you don’t treat me no good no more.
you got me wrapped around your finger.
you know i’ll find you.
you know i’ll never stop.
you know i love you just like you love me.
you know i love you so but you’re so mean to me baby.
you know i’m such a fool for you.
your blade; it might be too sharp.
you’re just lucky that you met me.
you’re only getting better.
you’re seeing how she’s not your type.
you’re standing there in your underwear and my t-shirt from the night before.
you’re stuck with me your whole life.
you’re the reason i jumped in the pool; ‘cause you’re so hot that i gotta get cool.
your heart fits like a key into the lock on the wall.
yours are the sweetest eyes i’ve ever seen.
your time came with the rain but now it’s dry.
you said that you weren’t alone.
you still owe me a reason.
you got me so so good.
you walk through the grass with my shadow in the past.
Under the cut you’ll find a list of otp/ship tags, verse tags, character tags, short character quotes, headlines, graphic quotes, etc. from various Bethany Joy Lenz songs. I’d appreciate if you like or reblog if you use! ♥
Then Slowly Grows (Come to Me)
i’m a frantic unsatisfied woman
the day grows long
i can’t seem to settle down
then slowly grows a little faith
everyday my dreams will get bigger
i hear there’s nothing i can dream hasn’t been dreamt before
so i water little faith
hope for the better
i know there’s so much more for me
i know there’s so much more than i can see
won’t you come to me
i’ll be the first one waiting
i’ll be the last to leave
promise you’ll come to me
i’ll give you anything
i’ll give you everything you need
did i mention i’m in lack of a loving hand
the nights grow long
i can’t seem to start again
then slowly grows a little light that breaks through my shadow
you knew me all along
you knew what i need
Halo
i never promised you a ray of light
i never promised there’d be sunshine everyday
i’ll give you everything i have; the good the bad
why do you put me on pedestal
i’m so up high that i can’t see the ground below
help me down
you’ve got it wrong
i don’t belong there
one thing is clear
i wear a halo when you look at me
but standing from here; you wouldn’t say so
i just wanna love you
i always said that i would make mistakes
i’m only human and that’s my saving grace
i’ll fall as hard as i try
don’t be blinded
see me as i really am
i have flaws and sometimes i even sin
so pull me from that pedestal; i don’t belong there
Leaving Town Alive
ain’t it funny how the time goes by
first you start believing then you’re leaving for no reason
you’re wondering why
so until the morning breaks go and make your mistakes
don’t be surprised if your head hurts
life is for the livin’ the forgiven and for leaving town alive
whispering the ways watching days and moving on
you wake up every monday then suddenly it’s sunday and the week is gone
don’t be surprised at the sunrise
do you wonder where it starts
do you wonder where she’s from
no one knows
now and then you wonder
aint it funny how she walks on by
she had you believing now she’s leaving for no reason and you’re wondering why
don’t be surprised if your heart hurts
Feel This
it’s gotta be this one
you don’t have to fake it
you know i can take it
what if i told you your tears haven’t been ignored
i know there’s a lot of these floating around and already made, but i wanted to have my own list with my personal favorite lyrics that i can refer to for my own tags. i thought it might be helpful to others, so here we are !! under the cut, you’ll find 1,000 different lyrics that are organized into various categories ( general/misc, slow burn, betrayal, unrequited, & more ) based on my interpretation on them. this list has everything from smokey robinson to dear evan hansen to eminem, so it should also be very diverse. trigger warnings will be placed in the categories they have them in. also, some words have been changed so they make more sense. let me know about any spelling mistakes or triggers i may have missed, as well as any lyrics i may have put in the wrong section. please like/reblog if you use or found this helpful, and most importantly, enjoy !!
general/misc. ( 304 lyrics )
tw: religion, blood, drowning, drinking
if we’re diving in the deep end ; i need to share all of my demons
not a care in the world ; just me and my girl
hold back the river ; let me look in your eyes
i don't need you to sell me on reasons to want you
you don't have to be scared you're not enough
i don't need you to fix what i'd rather forget
i give you ten thousand reasons to not let me go
we can just watch the whole world disappear
but call me home and i will build a throne
‘til the sun don’t shine ; you will still be mine
it's not a new wave ; it's just you and me
you make me feel like i am home again
the hole in the middle of my heart needs filling up
if you stay just a little that's enough
lay your head to rest and give yourself some peace
couldn't look you in the eye ; you’re just like an angel
i've been holding back for the fear that you might change your mind
i love you like you've never felt the pain
can we stay here and laugh away the fear
i'm waiting to live ; and waiting to love
i want the secrets your secrets haven't found
call me the one ; this night just can't end
lean for me and i'll fall back
when everyone else looks like a wrong answer ; she'll settle for being my best guess
follow my words to the end of our love
come and see me in the morning ; i'll be in the sunrise
it's human and it's tough ; it is love but it won't be enough
oh holy lover ; i'll be the colors i can't see
we’re looking for a miracle ; no we don’t mind waiting
they said that we’d never make it ; but maybe we already did
i think i could need this in my life
there's never much to read between the lines of what we need and what we'll take
you wrap your arms around my heart just like you always do
she held my gaze and i held my breath with all my mind
i found god ; i found him in a lover
i found the devil ; i found him in a lover
i've got a lover ; a love like religion
i've got a lover and i'm unforgiven
i'm such a fool to pay this price
he's off to pay his crimes and he's got no time for mine
oh baby girl you know we're gonna be legends
i'm the king and you're the queen and we will stumble through heaven
if there's a light at the end ; it's just the sun in your eyes
you know the two of us are just young gods
because you're mine ; i walk the line
you give me cause for love that i can't hide
i'll always keep you inside ; you healed my heart and my life
come on skinny love just last the year
you hit me head on ; got me weak in my knees
it's like a million little stars spelling out your name
your sweet disposition and my wide eyed gaze
a million lines for a billion hearts
the only heaven i'll be sent to ; is when i'm alone with you
no grave can hold my body down ; i'll crawl home to her
don't make a sound because i'll be with you the whole way down
and i know it's quite soon but you've got a lovely heart
i hope that you feel it too and a flame follows these sparks
spend the night looking into your eyes because i want to remember them if i ever fall blind
step out into the wild ; there's a beautiful storm in your eyes
but i bought you flowers ; so never let them die
but with your presence and your grace ; everything falls into place
you took my sorrow and you took my pain and buried them away
if i could find my heart inside this empty frozen chest ; then you would find that i'd give you all of it
you cause a thunder in my veins when you're around
so hold my hand before my heart erupts
i think we'd make a lovely mess
i may not be everything you want ; but i can give you all i have
could you be seen with me and still act proud ?
could you carry me through no man's land ?
but i would fight for you ; if you would fight for me
you can set my broken bones and i know cpr
you are the only thing that's right about this broken world
i was meant to be yours ; we were meant to be one
you built me palaces out of paragraphs ; you built cathedrals
why don't you be the artist and make me out of clay ?
why don't you be the writer ? and decide the words I say ?
how long will i love you ? as long as stars are above you
look at the stars ; look how they shine for you
your skin and bones ; turn into something beautiful
science and progress do not speak as loud as my heart
tell me you love me ; come back and haunt me
now i'm running late and i'm not a coffee drinke ; but i lost sleep just thinking of you
a pair of frozen hands to hold
god only knows but you'll never leave her
if you're searching for us ; you'll find us side by side
ihe says i smell like safety and home
i could be a morning sunrise all the time
can you feel the beat of my heartbeat beat through me ?
there's something so rare in your veins ; not a single thing i would change
they said we'd never make it but our hearts won't quit
there's no way that our hearts will be breaking cause all we have is love
it's like a sudden rush of water through your heart and lungs
you lift my heart up when the rest of me is down
set my midnight sorrow free ; i will give you all of me
i don’t always adore it but i know what it means to feel love
don't keep your secrets in a prayer
i would break the laws of gravity ; kill it for you in the first degree
light of my life darling ; we are immune
if i am the waves ; then you must be the moon
come and raise my love in
here in the dark i feel my heart
there are wires in between human heart and machine
everything I love was made of porcelain
you wrote your name in invisible ink
in some things you just can't help from falling
when you break it's too late for you to fall apart
take me away make it all better ; if not for a day then maybe forever
try describing a love you can't design
i want you as the dream ; not the reality
i want you to be a story for me that i can believe in forever
sweet love ; how long before you hurt for me ?
i see your face in blurry shades and i reach out for your hand
all your ways i can't explain but i want to understand
i met someone by accident ; it blew me away
i can fake my heart and i love to watch it burn
does she know that we bleed the same ?
it's a love that will keep me holding on
be my shelter from the storm
at least we'll both be beautiful and stay forever young
i will love you 'til the end of time
heaven is a place on earth with you
your face is like a melody ; it won't leave my head
numb to the winter cold but we don't mind ; 'cause we'll get warm inside
i wake up alone with only daylight between us
still got sand in my sweaters from nights we don't remember
just know you cannot save me
you touch me and suddenly there's rainbow rings
suddenly i'm caught up in your summer rain
hail soft storms of loving me ; let them play on my desires
you're not trusting your heart to anyone
try a little tenderness
find a way to finally make it right ; to make the magic last for more than just one night
take the best and make it better ; find a way to stay together
temperatures rising ; i don't want to feel
please let me love you with all my might
the love game has been played
and love will not break your heart ; but dismiss your fears
i'm a mess but i'm blessed to be stuck with you
if i may just take your breath away
i just want to see the stars with you
too long till i drown in your hands
my youth is yours ; run away now and forevermore
we've been making shades of purple out of red and blue
sickeningly sweet like honey
you're a red string tied to my finger
you're my favorite song ; always on the tip of my tongue
you own me with whispers like poetry ; your mouth is a melody i memorize
forget me not my dear ; my darling
let's write a song for us and sing until we're old and grey
like my heart longs for an ocean ; to wash down over me
the outcast dreams of acceptance ; just to find pure love's embrace
i remember the promises in the name of love
i'll kiss you again between the bars
i can plainly see you have a lover that's waiting
i swear your heart is a free bird
so hard to hold back when i'm holding you in my arms
just a touch of the fire burning so bright
you're a poem of mystery
you're the prayer inside me
spoken words like moonlight ; you're the voice that i like
love is waiting for better days
tonight we're the sea and the salty breeze
moon in a tidal lock ; and i was born to love you
there is music in the sea ; and we swim into the sound
love is made for broken things
trying to keep ourselves alone and out of sight
love was made to forget
the crown of love is falling from me
let the wave and your ocean fall on my shore
i want to be the place that you land
but when i'm with you ; you make the rain fall
when I'm with you ; i feel the sun
hold me close ; like i’m the sun to your moon
come around to another time when you don't have to run
it's your love affair ; on a quiet sunday afternoon
even the best fall down sometimes
you finally find that you and i collide
the days got colder ; so i held you closer
stayed around to kindle the fire
won't ever leave you ; ‘til the day that you die
i know love is never lost
worry never knows
feel my chest when i look at you
do i have to fall asleep with roses in my hand ?
it's not the storm before the calm
this is the deep and dying breath of this love that we've been working on
can't seem to hold you like i want to ; so i can feel you in my arms
we are hiding in a safer place
your warmth is crashing down on in
it's never gonna be that simple
i swear you hit me like a vision
this is how it starts ; lightning strikes the heart
we could be the stars ; falling from the sky
from nervous touch and getting drunk
we can't leave us behind anymore
love me now or love me later
there's depth where there's distance too
i'm a fool for you ; and the things you do
you told me i was like the dead sea ; you'll never sink when you are with me
honey can't you see ? i was born to be your dead sea
i belong with you ; you belong with me ; you're my sweetheart
if we don't leave this town ; we might never make it out
and when you ask do you love me ; i should reply with yes most certainly
come close ; lay next to me
won't you settle down with me ?
hear her come ; my heart's only drummer
your love is like a soldier ; loyal till you die
show me your broken heart to know your flaws
i know what we are ; our love's too young
my foolish heart turns at the stars
a love that never ends
your heart is upside down
you are my fairytale ; don't you wanna stay ?
you are my fairytale ; i hope that you don't run away
for the fire and the sleepless nights
i can hold the weight of worlds if that's what you need
found you in the sea of lovers without ships
wherever you go ; bring me home
how can i love when i'm afraid to fall ?
i have loved you for a thousand years
baby if you hold me ; then all of this will go away
i loved you then and i love you now
god knows what is hiding in those weak and drunken hearts
if you're homesick ; give me your hand and i'll hold it
we lie beneath the stars at night ; our hands gripping each other tight
you keep my secrets hope to die
promises ; swear them to the sky
just turn to my embrace ; i won't let you come to nothing
can you hear when i say i have never felt this way ?
can i make it better with the lights turned on ?
i'll cross oceans like never before so you can feel the way i feel it too
and i'll send images back at you so you can see the way i feel it too
when my heart is made from gold and forgiveness seems too bold
i still find it in my heart to say " i love you "
you don’t have to act like you're alone
you’re finding ways to break the bonds ; they’re stronger than you realize
there's an angel ; and he's shaped like you
fallen so far ; said you'd watch over my heart
held me so close i could hardly breathe
if your heart was full of love could you give it up ?
looking from a window above ; it's like a story of love
it's been so long since i touched a wanting hand
i can't put my love on the line that ; i hope you'll understand
i'm tired of getting caught up in those one night affairs
what i need is somebody who will always be there
if you're looking for devotion ; talk to me
come with your heart in your hands because my love is guaranteed
through a crowded room ; look at me like you know me
ain't it funny how a second lasts forever when we're together ?
i might get enough one day but i won't let this feeling fade away
i know it won't stop if we turn the love up
i'll make you stay ; don't let this feeling fade away
i'm gonna take you outta the darkness
i wanna walk with you in the light and hold your head high
you’re the only thing i know ; but it feels so far away
long gone and fallen down ; but i'm loving how it tastes
i could've chosen anybody ; but i chose you
daddy don't like you ; but daddy and i never speak
smells like roses to me ; two young lovers at sea
it's like my lungs are opening for the first time
you got through my guard when i was in safety mode
you're burning down my walls like the miami sun
it finally feels like i'm coming home
i met you in the dark ; you lit me up
you made me feel as though i was enough
darling ; your love is more than worth its weight in gold
i wanna live with you ; even when we're ghosts
you walked into the room and now my heart's been stolen
you took me back in time to when i was unbroken ; now you're all i want
i swear that every word you sing ; you wrote them for me
when the lights come on and i'm on my own ; will you be there to sing it again ?
you could tell me everything and then we could forget it
we're only skin and bone ; we don't have to be alone
sink or swim ; what will it be ?
we all got skeletons ; set them free
so tell me everything ; take a trip to the moon
let me love the lonely out of you
let me love the pain you're going through
we can light a fire to warm our bones
this world is much too cold to sleep alone
i never knew your name ; you never knew mine either
never leave me broken hearted ; baby i’m not strong enough
empty glances and no romance
if " i love you " was a promise would you break it ?
the only love i haven't screwed up
can't stop staring at those ocean eyes
fifteen flares inside those ocean eyes
i'm scared i've never fallen from quite this high
i wanna steal your soul and hide you in my treasure chest
i don't know what feels true ; but this feels right so stay a sec
you're all i wanted ; just let me hold you like a hostage
cross my heart and hope to die ; i’ll see you with your laughter lines
memories are mapped out by the lines we'll trace
but this is your heart ; can you feel it ?
drawing voices deep from you ; led by your beating heart
a wonderful part of the mess that we made ; we pick ourselves undone
but you had me at ‘ goodbye ’
i loved you ; what am i supposed to do ?
i look for ways to say i love you ; but i ain’t into making love songs
used to shine so bright but i watched all of it fade
been wondering if your hearts still open and if so i wanna know what time it shuts
we found love in a hopeless place
maybe in time you’ll be mine
two blue hearts locked in our wrong minds
contradictions/paradoxes. ( 25 lyrics )
and side by side ; we're different but somehow the same
i love your brain but i hate your guts
you've been burning bridges while i've been building homes
he said he didn't do commitment ; with tattoos on his skin
you hold me without touch ; you keep me without chains
and you sound like thunder ; though you've barely spoken
no right minds could wrong be this many times
you kept all the things i threw away
i was full of doubt and you believed
this time i'm gonna slow it down 'cause i think this could be more
you've got eyes that can tear me down ; but all they do is build me up
you're the light ; you're the night
you're the cure ; you're the pain
it's not that easy with you here but i know i want you to stay
see you distract me but i'm distracted without you
can we just say the rest with no sound
you enchant me even when you're not around
you swear to god but i'm a non-believer
you're losing faith while i've been holding on
when everything we used to say was wrong is now alright
we are bound to each other's hearts ; cold and pulled apart
i've missed you but i haven't met you
but i'm open ; you're closed
even the wrong words seem to rhyme
i don't gamble ; but if i did i would bet on us
slow burn/friends to lovers. ( 47 lyrics )
all i want is to flip a switch ; before something breaks that cannot be fixed
i could offer you a warm embrace ; to make you feel my love
i could hold you for a million years ; to make you feel my love
what if I lose my heart and fail the climb ?
barely even friends ; then somebody bends unexpectedly
so don't you tell me that you're falling for me now
teach me to be somebody new
you told me all your darkest fears and i fell apart
why did you have to let me let you in ?
what if we ruin it all and we love like fools ?
i'm fighting not to feel but nothing works
i can see all the things that imply ; you secretly are in love
paint me in trust ; i'll be your best friend
you love the chase but hate me for the runaround
open up next to you and my secrets become your truth
i could find the whole meaning of life in those sad eyes
come out of hiding ; i'm right here beside you
you do not see what i see inside; the quiet heart you're trying to hide
i'll be damned if i do it ; damned if i don't
i'll be lost if i love him ; lost if i won't
all we do is think about the feelings that we hide
sick and full of pride ; all we do is drive
the more that i know you ; the more I want to
oh feel our bodies grow and our souls they blend
they say a problem shared is a problem cut in two
i can't figure you out ; you've got more fight in you than anybody else
i let you see the parts of me that weren't all that pretty ; and with every touch you fixed them
trust in me ; don't pull away
can't keep this beating heart at bay
we hide our emotions under the surface and try to pretend
with words unspoken ; a silent devotion
friends can break your heart too
longing to love you for one night
take my hand ; you're treading water
darling so it goes ; some things are meant to be
though you will not wait for me ; i'll wait for you
we've been lonely too long
i’ll shoulder the load ; and i’ll swallow the shame
looking for love in the lies of a lonely friend
you're raveled up ; you take some time to come undone
i never wanna fall apart ; never wanna break your heart
tired of holding this inside my head
here in silence ; it's just you and me
the vacancy that sat in my heart is a space that now you hold
i will always be listening for your laughter and your tears
you have to trust in someone
it takes awhile to settle down
reliant/dependent. ( 43 lyrics )
tw: drowning, anxiety, codependency
you are the piece of me i wish i didn’t need
take what you like but close my ears and eyes
we'll learn how to be to be incomplete
said you'd always be my white blood ; circulate the right love
watch how a cold broken teen will desperately lean on a super glued human of proof
i never wanted anything so much ; than to drown in your love
i got issues and one of them is how bad i need you
every second here without you ; feels like the division of the heart
wherever i've been ; i'll come running back to you
take my weak heart and tie it to yours
i promised myself i wouldn't let you complete me
before i met you i never felt good enough
you are the one who'd make me lose it all
long were the nights when my days once revolved around you
counting my footsteps ; praying the floor won’t fall through again
i forget about you long enough ; to forget why i needed you
love i have wounds ; only you can mend
and I'd rather choke than to breathe in your absence
'cause i am living for your touch but i would die to be your man
only you can set my heart on fire
it's not warm when she's away
i will run to you to you till ; i can't stand on my own anymore
if your heart wears thin i will hold you up
waiting for you to bring me in from out the cold
there's nothing i can do i'm helpless without you
you're always there to hold me up when i'm losing my mind
we're no good without each other ; take the best and make it better
when you're gone ; all the colours fade
anxious love gets so obsessed
i'm tangled up in you
show me how to fight for now
i'm desperate for your adoration
this love is tainted ; i need you and i hate it
remain next to me ; i need to feel important
certain it's your love that holds me together
i want you by my side so that i never feel alone again
keep the bad things out of my mind
i still want to drown whenever you leave
please teach me gently on how to breathe
all you crave is attention ; you need to be loved
help me get better ; you pull me right out of the blue
every night when i wake up i need you to get back to sleep
i think i've saved myself by saving you
ex/heartbreak. ( 217 lyrics )
tw: drugs, scars, suffocation
it was funny that she would have to stay and i would go
but when you love someone sometimes you've gotta let them go
don’t you dare let our best memories bring you sorrow
it might never be the right time and that's the hardest part of it
i keep you in my mind even though you've gone
holding on to nothing's easier than letting go
stuck in the memory of what has been
just please don't love another like you loved me
time doesn't heal ; it just leaves me asking why
fall in love in a single touch ; and fall apart when it hurts too much
i lit a fire with the love you left behind
i don't want us to break up in the cloud
i'm trying not to think about you ; can't you just let me be ?
should've known you'd bring me heartache ; almost lovers always do
i thought i broke the last of that breakdown
i'm in california dreaming about who we used to be
you and i have history ; or don't you remember ?
i braved a hundred storms to leave you
you left with no goodbye ; not a single word was said
not a single word was said ; no final kiss to seal any sins
don't you remember the reason you loved me before ?
i wished you the best of all this world could give
tell me all you found was heartbreak and misery
i'm jealous of the way you're happy without me
i heard it in your voice when your love died
is losing me such a big relief ?
let's start at the end ; becoming strangers once again
i think i lost myself the day you left
but how can it all change so fast ; from everything to nothing just like that ?
i watched our bodies turn to ghosts
if only i could lose my mind ; then maybe i would find a way out
i don't know how emptiness can be this heavy
what if i said i would break your heart ?
as i break your heart and sever mine
i'm holding on ; but my body's caving in
i'll still feel you here ; 'til the moment i'm gone
leave unsaid unspoken ; eyes wide shut unopened
hang my head ; break my heart built from all i have torn apart
i'm just a basket case without you
i don't miss your cocaine i got blood and honey
i hope to burn away the sight of you
i'm awakened and my heart's bled
i can't sleep without the lights on ; it's like i'm broken when you're gone
if you're gone ; maybe it's time to come home
love is a buried nail inside of this heart of stone
i can't muster up the courage to say it's best that i leave
my human heart won't mend itself ; when my own two hands are ripping out the seams
you touched me and suddenly i was a lilac sky ; you decided purple just wasn't for you
tell me it's over i'll still love you the same
tell me it's over ; i don't want you to hurt
what didn't kill me ; it never made me stronger at all
and i don't get waves of missing you anymore ; they're more like tsunami tides
it's been a while but i still feel the same ; maybe i should let you go
something's gone terribly wrong you're all i wanted
i feel you forget me like i used to feel you breathe
six months gone and i'm still reaching even though i know you're not there
when time stood still and i had you
i've been waiting for you ; ever since you've been gone
i know it's long gone ; and that magic's not here no more
you taught me about your past thinking your future was me
maybe we got lost in translation ; maybe i asked for too much
maybe this thing was a masterpiece 'til you tore it all up
you call me up again just to break me like a promise
so casually cruel in the name of being honest
back before you lost the one real thing you've ever known
and right before your eyes i'm breaking
you wear your best apology ; but i was there to watch you leave
this is the last time i say it's been you all along
this is the last time ; i won't hurt you anymore
don't wanna miss you like this
cause i just railed down enough lines tonight to spell your first and last name
it's all because i dreamt of you and woke up alone
a fool to let you slip away
same old empty feeling in your heart ; love comes slow and it goes so fast
i wanna cry and i wanna love ; but all my tears have been used up
i thought that i'd been hurt before ; but no one's ever left me quite this sore
our veins are busy but my heart's in atrophy
it's such a shame that we can't renew all those feelings that we shared
maybe we’re better off alone
when you're awake and your own shadows turn into ghosts
heavy words are hard to take ; under pressure precious things can break
fools rush in and i've been the fool before
you made me high then you swooped so low
i was on your side but then i saw it change
his feelings are crushed like rock salt on the table
i wouldn't change any part of me ; just to make you stay
when you leave ; i'm begging you not to go
looking for some proof that there's a heart inside of me
you stole the matches from my book ; put out the fire in my eyes
but your love's too good to lose
i hate to think about you with somebody else
our love has gone cold
maybe i've been putting my heart out in the wrong way
we're not who we used to be
i hold on ; it's getting harder to breathe
sometimes the one you want is not the one you need
spare you the rising storms and let the rivers flow
you can lay with me so it doesn't hurt
no words can explain the way i'm missing you
this house no longer feels like home
sweet love my oldest friend ; have we come to the bitter end ?
too many years of battle scars and now we're broken
the higher we rise ; the further we fall
when my breath runs cold ; i'll be thinking about you
we've become echoes ; but echoes that fade away
it's only been a lifetime ; but tonight you're a stranger or some silhouette
oh the good time we almost never had
emptied out my inside ; poured it on the ground
so cut me baby ; deep enough so that the scar will stay
i will never erase your name from my heart
where hope is left so incomplete
sever the ties ; cut me out
i lay in tears in bed all night ; alone without you by my side
you hesitate ; so my memory fades
it feels like there's oceans between me and you once again
i sedate my mind with hope of your return
throw me in a landfill ; don't think about the consequences
leave me at the altar ; knowing all the things you just escaped
leave me in the cold ; wait until the snow covers me up
from the perfect start to the finish line
my eyes are damp from the words you left
so why do you fill my sorrow with the words you've borrowed
and why do you sing hallelujah ; if it means nothing to you
i don't wanna waste the weekend ; if you don't love me pretend
to show all the ways my heart is slowly shattering for you
i've got this ache inside my heart ; i know that it's you
i’ll drown in my tear storming sea
it’s such a shame ; to let you walk away
the end comes too soon ; like dreaming of angels
your memory near ; laced with the pain
i always knew you'd be the one to break me down
they say you don't know what you got 'til it's too late ; i'm already gone
feeling used ; but i'm still missing you
untouchable memories seemed to keep haunting me
closed off from love ; i didn't need the pain
my heart's crippled by the vein that i keep on closing
my heart stumbles on things i don't know ; my weakness i feel i must finally show
how could you love me and leave me and never say goodbye ?
i never thought we'd end up here in separate cages
i smell heartbreak on my hands
trying to replace the love that i fake with what we both need
there's a heart stain on the carpet i left it with you
there are flowers growing on the grave of our old love
just burn it all down and bring the ashes to me
we can never seem to find the time we lost
now i'm denied by the ghost of you
a photograph lost here ; since you were mine
such a victim of her romance
we were young stubborn & in love with disaster
i don't wanna lose you now
now we're slipping at the edge ; holding something we don't need
all this delusion in our heads is gonna bring us to our knees
trying to fit your hand inside of mine when we know it just don't belong
there's no force on earth that could make it feel right
let the ashes fall ; forget about me
we grow apart ; i watch you on the red horizon
this fragile heart ; so heavy in my chest ; it's breaking
i can't make the truth of this work out for you or me
little ghost ; you're not welcome here anymore
what i've learned is love's a lesson
i will blame myself for holding on to what i hoped would keep you by my side
the sheets are stained with ; memories of your soft kiss
what if we became strangers ?
there's another dawning ; a tremor where we stood
are you somewhere feeling lonely even though he's right beside you ?
can we pretend that everything is like yesterday ?
let's pretend we never met ; a good excuse to play forget
when i’m looking for love i pretend it's you
you're gone and i gotta stay high all the time ; to keep you off my mind
oh why can i not conquer love ?
you did not break me ; i'm still fighting for peace
spend my time trying to read our past
it was easy for you to let go ; but i'm still in love with you
let the time fly by like the wind and open our hearts again
broken lover yes i made you believe that i would be the one to heal you
you wish i would've treated you like you treated me
don't you know i'm not your ghost anymore ?
you lost the love i loved the most
i learned to live half alive ; and now you want me one more time
collecting your jar of hearts and tearing love apart
you don't get to get me back
envision the meaning of a tragedy ; you might be surprised to hear it's you and me
your words in my head ; knives in my heart
you build me up and then i fall apart 'cause i'm only human
your face is ashen and i'm barely listening
i am a visitor here ; i am not permanent
maybe i had said something that was wrong
fall back in love eventually
the bigger you get the harder you fall
you disappeared and that's all that's missing
your love was so real and too late to forget how you made me feel
you were mine but you've grown so cold
held me in the dark ; sheltered as you took my heart
i know you could see i was lost in you
so take my heart ; it's all that's left
sometimes the tears we cry are more than any heart can take
heartbreaks and promises ; i've had more than my share
i'm tired of giving my love ; and getting nowhere
we're falling down ; and i show you how it breaks
i could read you a scripture of tears
you have gone and so effortlessly
there was a time when our love ; it was so sweet
i’m falling into darkness and it’s you i need to see
now i’m a ghost ; i call your name ; you look right through me
i've been trying to fix my pride but that shit's broken
feels like my loneliness is only blessed from you
i don’t know how to be something you miss
fall apart twice a day ; i just wish you could feel what you say
we've made every mistake ; only you know the way that i break
says he made the big mistake of dancing in my storm
he left her lonely with a diamond mind
another story of girl meets boy and gets destroyed
what is up, friendos?? i was overtaken by nostalgia today and decided to put together a masterlist reminiscing of my teenage days! under the cut you will find FIFTY SHIP TAGS taken & adapted from multiple JONAS BROTHERS lyrics throughout their entire career. don’t forget to like/reblog if you found this helpful!
otp: if the heart is always searching can you ever find a home?
otp: dreams can't take the place of loving you
otp: when you look me in the eyes i catch a glimpse of heaven
otp: you're the light that makes my darkness disappear
otp: i never thought that i'd catch this lovebug again
otp: i could see the world through your eyes
otp: peter pan and wendy turned out fine so won't you fly with me?
otp: i caould see everything and never be satisfied if i couldn't see those eyes
otp: i count the days until she is mine
otp: i can see those tell tale signs telling me that i was on your mind
otp: you’re like driving on a sunday
otp: you’re like taking off a monday
otp: i can’t make it alive on my own
otp: they come and go but they don't know that you are my beautiful
otp: until the end of time please be mine
otp: i’m in and out of love with you
otp: i can’t stop the rain from falling & i can’t stop my heart from calling you
otp: and when winter comes she’ll be my angel
otp: even when we're miles and miles apart you're still holding all of my heart
otp: i’m dreaming of you and me dancing
otp: in a crowded room i'd be the only one she sees
otp: she walks away & colors fade to gray
otp: 'cause i'd rather just be alone if i know that i can't have you
otp: falling slowly for eyes that know me
otp: i met you in a dream & your piercing eyes were staring straight at me
otp: i’m waiting for the moonlight so i can find you
otp: everyone knows it's meant to be
otp: thinking about how we're gonna say our vows
otp: she walks down the aisle & i see all my friends smile
otp: you see everything in color while the world is getting darker
otp: everything i do brings me back to you
otp: she's such a flirt & i'm a lonely heart
otp: don’t take my heart and put it on a shelf
otp: holding you again could only do me good
otp: the last time that i will ever beg you to stay
otp: i don't want to see you and me going our separate ways
otp: i’m begging you to stay if it isn’t too late
otp: turn right into my arms
otp: hope to see you on the finish line
otp: i don’t wanna love if it’s not you
otp: i'm on the edge of crossing the line
otp: you're a million miles too close
otp: every time you smile for me takes me a while to bring myself back
otp: ‘cause you’re all that
otp: stars shine but your light is the brightest
otp: love flies but your love is the highest
otp: you’re the voice i hear inside my head
otp; the reason that i’m singing
otp: you’re the missing piece i need
otp: i’m exactly where i’m supposed to be now
