Smash Into Pieces - Afterglow

We all fall apart
Buried deep behind the smile, we all have scars
There is truth in our lies
'Cause the shadow's never hidin' who we are
We're stuck in a game of playing pretend
We're left in the ashes again and again
After all the smoke and mirrors, we are only saints and sinners
Waiting for afterglow
Did we take a perfect heaven, turn it into Armageddon?
Waiting for afterglow
Wide awake, but caught in the blind
It's like we don't see what's right in front of our eyes
We're stuck in a game of playing pretend
We're left in the ashes again and again
After all the smoke and mirrors, we are only saints and sinners
Waiting for afterglow
Did we take a perfect heaven, turn it into Armageddon?
Waiting for afterglow
In the afterglow
In the afterglow
Are we hopin' for a miracle?
Starting fires 'til we're burnin' out
Are we headed for the free fall?
Are we hopin' for a miracle?
Starting fires 'til we're burnin' out
Are we headed for the free fall? (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
After all the smoke and mirrors, we are only saints and sinners
Waiting for afterglow
Did we take a perfect heaven, turn it into Armageddon?
Waiting for afterglow
In the afterglow
In the afterglow
In the afterglow
 
I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way
 
This is where
This is where the bottle lands
Where all the biggest questions meet
With little feet stood in the sand

And this is where
The echoes swell to nothing on the tide
And where a tiny pair of hands
Finds a sea-worn piece of glass
And sets it as a sapphire in her mind

And there she stands
Throwing both her arms around the world
The world that doesn't even know
How much it needs this little girl

It's all gonna be magnificent, she says
It's all gonna be magnificent

Magnificent (she says) - Elbow
 
Oh you can get it
Only for a little bit
If you fall in lane
Oh I can take it
Standing dry in the pouring rain
As I say goodbye

Unbranded, open back-handed
Leave and don't take the blame

I crave the discourse
Can you, can you, can you

Can you feel it
Vibrations and elation
A feeling comes to mind it's magnetism
The rhythm of falling forwards
Hopelessly lost
And constantly longing for another
Shot in the dark
So I can dream
You and me getting out of this nightmare

Shot in the dark - Joel Baylis
 
(only listened bc it was such a good year lol. but should not have listened today. fucking hell does it hit)

i’m trying to forgive myself for things i didnt do
for words i didn’t say and things i didn’t choose
spending every day decomposing in my room
i’m not okay but there’s nothing i can do
i’m tryna love the person i was when i was born
hating on a kid doesn’t serve me anymore
sylvanians making stories on the floor
mum and dad in love like its 1994

1994 - cavetown
 
Everyone's damaged
A little depressed
Every now and then we get that feeling in our chest
Some days I'm a loser, brush my teeth in the dark
Head above water in a swimming pool of sharks

Ooh, it's hard to get up out of bed when everything is on its head
And nothing seems to make any sense
Like a Band-Aid on a bleeding heart
I fake a smile and fall apart
And no one ever knows I'm a wreck

When the world is on your shoulders
And the weight of your own heart is too much to bear
Well, I know that you're afraid things will always be this way
It's just a bad day, not a bad life

Everything's backwards and I'm hanging on
No matter how hard I try I always come undone
Backed in a corner, uncomfortably numb
Watching myself become a shadow of someone

Oh, it's hard to find a place to hide
When you're running from what's inside
No matter where you go, there you are
So tonight I'll go to war with me
'Cause I'm my own worst enemy and I don't wanna fight anymore

When the world is on your shoulders
And the weight of your own heart is too much to bear
Well, I know that you're afraid things will always be this way
It's just a bad day, not a bad life
And I know it feels so hopeless
And I know how close you are to the edge right now
So I wrote this song to say, things won't always be this way, no
It's just a bad day, not a bad life

Ooh, yeah
Yeah-yeah
Yeah, oh

When the world is on your shoulders
And the weight of your own heart is too much to bear
Well, I know that you're afraid things will always be this way
It's just a bad day, not a bad life
And I know it feels so hopeless
And I know how close you are to the edge right now
So I wrote this song to say, things won't always be this way, no
It's just a bad day, not a bad life

Yeah, it's just a bad day, not a bad life

I love that song. I shared it with Hope the other day. It's a daily listen for me so thank you for that gift
 
Drinking in the morning sun
Blinking in the morning sun
Shaking off a heavy one
Yeah, heavy like a loaded gun

What made me behave that way?
Using words I never say
I can only think it must be love
Oh anyway, it’s looking like a beautiful day

Someone tell me how I feel
It’s silly wrong, but vivid right
Oh, kiss me like a final meal
Yeah, kiss me like we die tonight

‘Cause holy cow, I love your eyes
And only now I see the light
Yeah, lying with you half awake
Stumbling over what to say
Oh, anyway, it’s looking like a beautiful day

One Day Like This - Elbow

Makes me think of @bunnyivy ♥️

And we were bold
Over the world
We were flying through the satellites
We had ahold
Of the lightning strikes
When we should have been afraid of heights
And I was trying just to get you
And now I'm dying to forget you
Cause I knew I couldn't catch you
So I left the sky
And I fell behind

We were one in the same
Running like moths to the flame
You'd hang on every word I'd say
But now they only ricochet
We were falling away
You left me with a bittersweet taste
But when I send my heart your way
It bounces off the walls you made
Ricochet

If I was whole
I'd turn right now
I'd forget it and just walk away
Cause I've been told
That I'm dragging it out
But I've been dying just to see your face
And all I wanted was to say "goodbye"
Into the fortress and you're stuck behind
And in the silence now I realize
That after all I built the wall

We were one in the same
Running like moths to the flame
You'd hang on every word I'd say
But now they only ricochet
You were falling away
You left me with a bittersweet taste
But when I send my heart your way
It bounces off the walls you made
Ricochet

All these broken souls
They never make me whole
They don't, they don't know my heart
They don't know my heart

All these broken souls
Each one more beautiful
They don't, they don't know my heart
They don't know my heart

I'll send out my soul
To worlds more beautiful
But they won't, they won't know my heart
It's the darkest part

We were one in the same
Running like moths to the flame
You'd hang on every word I'd say
But now they only ricochet
You were falling away
You left me with a bittersweet taste
But when I send my heart your way
It bounces off the walls you made
Ricochet

Thank you @LeiaSkywalker for introducing me to this. Adore it

If I should die this very moment
I wouldn't fear
For I've never known completeness
Like being here
Wrapped in the warmth of you
Loving every breath of you
Still my heart this moment
Or it might burst
Could we stay right here
Until the end of time until the earth stops turning
Wanna love you until the seas run dry
I've found the one I've waited for

All this time I've loved you
And never known your face
All this time I've missed you
And searched this human race
Here is true peace
Here my heart knows calm
Safe in your soul
Bathed in your sighs
Wanna stay right here
Until the end of time
'Til the earth stops turning
Gonna love you until the seas run dry
I've found the one I've waited for

The one I've waited for

All I've known
All I've done
All I've felt was leading to this
All I've known
All I've done
All I've felt was leading to this
Wanna stay right here
'Til the end of time 'till the earth stops turning
I'm gonna love you till the seas run dry
I've found the one I've waited for
The one I've waited for
The one I've waited for

Wanna stay right here
'Til the end of time 'till the earth stops turning
I'm gonna love you till the seas run dry
I've found the one I've waited for
The one I've waited for
The one I've waited for

One of my absolute favourite songs ever.
 
Red, red wine
Go to my head
Make me forget that I
Still need her so

Red, red wine
It's up to you
All I can do, I've done
But memories won't go
No, memories won't go

I'd have sworn that with time
Thoughts of you would leave my head
I was wrong, and I find
Just one thing makes me forget

Red, red wine
Stay close to me
Don't let me be alone
It's tearing apart
My blue, blue heart

I'd have sworn that with time
Thoughts of you would leave my head
I was wrong, and I find
Just one thing makes me forget

Red, red wine
Stay close to me
Don't let me be alone
It's tearing apart
My blue, blue heart
 
So dear friends, your love is gone
Only tears to dwell upon
I dare not say as the wind must blow
So a love is lost, a love is won

Go to sleep and dream again
Soon your hopes will rise and then
From all this gloom life will start anew
And there’ll be no crying soon

Dear Friends - Queen
 
Name something better
Something better than the stars
I'd like to hold it in my arms
I think i see it in your eyes

Name Something Better - Ray Bull
 
Dearly beloved
We are gathered here today
To get through this thing called life

Electric word life
It means forever and that's a mighty long time
But I'm here to tell you
There's something else
The afterworld

A world of never-ending happiness
You can always see the sun, day or night

So when you call up that shrink in Beverly Hills
You know the one Dr. Everything'll Be Alright
Instead of asking him how much of your time is left
Ask him how much of your mind, baby

'Cause in this life
Things are much harder than in the afterworld
In this life
You're on your own

And if the elevator tries to bring you down
Go crazy - punch a higher floor

If you don't like the world you're living in
Take a look around you
At least you got friends
