If only I'd thought of the right words
I could have held on to your heart
If only I'd thought of the right words
I wouldn't be breaking apart all my pictures of you

Looking so long at these pictures of you
But I never hold on to your heart
Looking so long for the words to be true
But always just breaking apart
My pictures of you

There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more
Than to feel you deep in my heart
There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more
Than to never feel the breaking apart
My pictures of you
 
You're holding me and holding back
I don't really care for that
Just you
There's a pause between every minute
Feelin' like I need something
It's just you

I'll quiet down if it's what you want
I understand I'm not the only one
For you
So tell me what you're looking for
Is it a picture-perfect girl
For you?

I know
I know
I know
I know
 
Welcome to the garden of Eden
There’s nobody here but me and you
So what we gonna be eating?
Microphone check one-two, one-two
 
She says, like literally, music is the air she breathes
And the malaprops make me want to fucking scream
I wonder if she even knows what that word means
Well, it's literally not that
 
The sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land
Plumes of smoke rise and merge into the leaden sky
A man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers
But awakes to a morning with no reason for waking
He's haunted by the memory of a lost paradise
In his youth or a dream, he can't be precise
He's chained forever to a world that's departed
It's not enough, it's not enough
His blood has frozen and curdled with fright
His knees have trembled and given way in the night
His hand has weakened at the moment of truth
His step has faltered
One world, one soul
Time pass, the river roll
And he talks to the river of lost love and dedication
And silent replies that swirl invitation
Flow dark and troubled to an oily sea
A grim intimation of what is to be
There's an unceasing wind that blows through this night
And there's dust in my eyes, that blinds my sight
And silence that speaks so much louder than words
Of promises broken
 
😢

Oh, love, I'm a mess right now
Can you help me out?
'Cause it's all gone south
Oh, love, make a hurt nothing?
'Cause the pills don't work
They just make it worse

So, when the right are going wrong
And I'm barely holding on
Baby, hear when I say

"Won't you stay, love
When everybody's leaving?
Come on, stay, love
To get me through the evening
Oh, I pray, love
That you'll always be the one
And, when the road gets rough
Don't give up on us
And this could stay, love"
 
"Show me, show me, show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream", she said
"The one that makes me laugh", she said
And threw her arms around my neck
Show me how you do it
And I promise you, I promise that
I'll run away with you
I'll run away with you

Spinning on that dizzy edge
Kissed her face and kissed her head
Dreamed of all the different ways
I had to make her glow
"Why are you so far away?", she said
"Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
That I'm in love with you?"

You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You're just like a dream
You're just like a dream

Daylight licked me into shape
I must've been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone, alone
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved
And drowned her deep inside of me

You
Soft and lonely
You
Lost and lonely
You
Just like heaven
 
I don't wanna backslide to where I've started from
There's no chance I will shake this again
'Cause I feel the pull, water's over my head
Strength enough for onе more time
Reach my hand abovе the tide
I'll take anything you have
If you could throw me a line
I should've loved you better
Do you think that now's the time
You should let go?
It's over my head
 
A drag path etched in the surface
As evidence I left there on purpose
A sad sap laying on the surface
Can you find me?
I dug my heels into the gravel
As evidence for you to unravel
A drag path etched in the surface
Can you find me?
 
And now you wanted to share your life
And now you want to be free to fly
But no, you can’t have ‘em both
Tonight decides what tomorrow knows
 
@BunnyBeeHope will approve of this one

But I believe in love
And I know that you do too
And I believe in some kind of path
That we can walk down, me and you
So keep your candles burning
Make her journey bright and pure
That she'll keep returning
Always and evermore

Into my arms, oh, Lord
Into my arms, oh, Lord
Into my arms, oh, Lord
Into my arms
 
Once, there was a way
To get back homeward
Once, there was a way
To get back home
Sleep, pretty darling, do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby

Golden slumbers fill your eyes
Smiles awake you when you rise
Sleep, pretty darling, do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby

Once, there was a way
To get back homeward
Once, there was a way
To get back home
Sleep, pretty darling, do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby
 
Welcome my son
Welcome to the machine
Where have you been? It’s alright, we know where you’ve been

You’ve been in the pipeline, filling in time
Provided with toys and ‘Scouting for Boys’
You bought a guitar to punish your ma
And you didn’t like school, and you know you’re nobody’s fool
So welcome to the machine

Welcome my son
Welcome to the machine
What did you dream ?
It’s alright we told you what to dream

You dreamed of a big star
He played a mean guitar
He always ate in the steak bar
He loved to drive in his Jaguar
So welcome to the machine
 
Have you ever felt like nobody was there?
Have you ever felt forgotten in the middle of nowhere?
Have you ever felt like you could disappear?
Like you could fall, and no one would hear?

Well, let that lonely feeling wash away
Maybe there's a reason to believe you'll be okay
'Cause when you don't feel strong enough to stand
You can reach, reach out your hand
And oh, someone will come runnin'
And I know they'll take you home

Even when the dark comes crashing through
When you need a friend to carry you
And when you're broken on the ground
You will be found
So let the sun come streamin' in
'Cause you'll reach up and you'll rise again
Lift your head and look around
You will be found
 
I know that the bar closes at 11
I hope you never finish that beer
You know all the words to "Just Like Heaven"
And I know why he wrote them
Now that you're standing right here
Ohh
One night I was bored in bed
And stalked you on the internet
It's feminine intuition
'Cuz I always had a vision of us standing like this
All pressed up in the bathroom line
You're looking like an angel on the walls of Versailles
The most alive I've ever been
But kiss me and I might drop dead
And I feel like I might throw up
Left hook, right punch to the gut
You're so so pretty
I'm paranoid I made you up
Yeah I'd love it if you walked me home
If you promised we could go real slow
'Cuz I got chewing gum
And a bunch of stuff I'd like to know
Like, have you ever been to Japan?
Or taken that Eurostar to France?
I've been dropping hints all night
That I'd love it if you held my hand, goddamn
And then maybe we could make-makeout
Clothes off and fall to the ground
Let's go steady
Let's go out
And tell the whole damn world how
One night I was bored in bed
And stalked you on the internet
It's feminine intuition
'Cuz I always had a vision of us standing like this
All pressed up in the bathroom line
You're looking like an angel on the walls of Versailles
The most alive I've ever been
But kiss me and I might
I might drop dead
 
I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be a star, in somebody else's sky.

Pearl Jam- Black
Still my all time favorite song, the first time I felt emotions while listening to music. I was maybe 14ish and had no idea what it really meant back than though.

You're a part of the dawn where the light comes from the dark
You're a part of the morning and everything matters
Here we are an atom and a star
You′re a part of the movement and everything matters
(To me, to me, to me, to me)

I′m watching your storm turn into form
In the clouds of the world like a burst
It dances and it twirls
On top of the world, it is good and it hurts

Look at it go, look at it dance over the sky like a rocket
A teacher, a simulated dream
A cure, a cure for the hurt
And the pleasure you feel is real

 
I hear strange voices every step I take
No, you can't cross the ocean if you can't get past the break
Even if fear don't put you down
Oh, won't you lean on me while I'm around

No rope to hang the dead
No line to save the drowning man
Just the monsters in your head

Nothing in the closet
Nothing underneath the bed
Just the monsters in your head
 
I'm about to lose it, but I'm doing fine
Completely unstable
Surprisingly capable
A bit depressed
But I'm so blessed
Mentally fragile
Incredibly agile
Mentally struggling
Tasks I'm juggling
Neurodivergent
Life emergent
Thoughts intrusive
Vibe elusive
Brain cells dying
I'm still trying
Reality spiraling
But still smiling
Brain chemistry's off
But my vibe is soft
Brain's a mess
I'll do my best
Sanity gone
I carry on
Psyche cracked
I'm still intact
Sanity frayed
But I got it made
My problem I can't define
I'm about to lose it
But I'm doing fine
 
Dancing with the devil round the fire
Messed your mamma's bed for a little more magic
Make you wanna run around naked
'Cause you know it looks go on you
But you ain't ever had my cornbread
A little bit of heaven, and a little bit of aw yeah
Cut it down the middle
Open wide and jump right in
