MARINA LOVE + FEAR ( FEAR ) SENTENCE STARTERS
You say that you found me, I'm the one you waited for.
And my mood, it changes all the time.
Why is what you give never enough?
I don't trust my head, no, I don't trust my damn mind, no.
I smile with tears in my eyes but I can't be acting like this.
Let go of my thoughts, let 'em fly away, swear I'll be better.
We walk and talk and think alike. We all cry the same tears at night.
Nothing ever stays the same but all I know is life is strange.
Don't know what I'm doing with my life.
Is it ever gonna be enough to love another and be loved?
Seems like everybody's having the best time of their lives.
You don't know me like you think you do.
Everybody thinks that you're a star but underneath I see just what you are.
You, yeah, you break me down. Yeah, you shut me out.
You don't know I'm just as bad as you.
Everybody thinks that I'm the heart of every party, but it's just the start.
Deep down, I know that we're just the same, burning slowly through the dust and flames.
Do you think they won't remember?
You're only sorry when you're coming down.
Real hearts don't lie, take it from me.
Oh my god, I think it's karma.
Ain't it funny how it all adds up when you're always tryna push your luck?
It starts with one snowball, then you watch the dominoes fall.
It's funny how it all goes down. Don't be sorry when it comes around.
Cut from devotion, lost in an ocean, out of emotion for you.
It's hard to see that you wanna be free.
It's no excuse to treat me like you do.
Did you ever truly love me?
Were you just too scared to be free?
Just too afraid, that's why I stay.
I wanna change, but I don't know how.
I've been to every party, every bar. Nothing thrills me in this city anymore.
Been feeling like I don't belong, and I see I've reached an end.
I hate this city, but I stay 'cause of you.
This isn't living, this isn't how I thought my life would be.
I wanna move on, but I'm just too afraid.
Nothing's gonna change the way I feel.
I was too open, I was too quick to let other people in, took whatever they could get.
Yeah, I know I need a change 'cause I'm tired of feeling drained.
Don't reply to your texts, can I make it any clearer?
No more suckers in my life. All the drama gets them high.
They just keep bleeding me dry 'til there's nothing left inside.
Every time I meet you, I know what to expect.
I know it's hard to be soft. I know it hurts to be kind.
And I guess I've known it all along. The truth is you have to be soft to be strong.
Finally, I feel the fear is gone.
I believe the world is beautiful. Only the weak ones are cruel.
I choose to love you without fear. No shame in being sincere.
I took my bitterness and made it sweet. I took a broken heart and made it beat.
And though to heal a heart is slow, it's just a consequence of pain.
