Gravity

Sara Bareilles

Something always brings me back to you. It never takes too long.

No matter what I say or do I'll still feel you here 'til the moment I'm gone.

You hold me without touch. You keep me without chains.

I never wanted anything so much than to drown in your love and not feel your rain.

CHORUS

Set me free, leave me be.

I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity.

Here I am and I stand so tall, just the way I'm supposed to be.

But you're on to me and all over me.

You loved me 'cause I'm fragile. When I thought that I was strong.

But you touch me for a little while and all my fragile strength is gone.

CHORUS

Set me free, leave me be.

I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity.

Here I am and I stand so tall, just the way I'm supposed to be.

But you're on to me and all over me.

I live here on my knees as I try to make you see that you're

everything I think I need here on the ground.

But you're neither friend nor foe though I can't seem to let you go.

The one thing that I still know is that you're keeping me down.

You’re on to me, you’re on to me and all over...

Something always brings me back to you. It never takes too long.

Today, I've been listening to the Pet Shop Boys, and this is really how I've felt my whole life

It's a Sin

When I look back upon my life

It's always with a sense of shame

I've always been the one to blame

For everything I long to do

No matter when or where or who

Has one thing in common, too

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin

It's a sin

Everything I've ever done

Everything I ever do

Every place I've ever been

Everywhere I'm going to

It's a sin

At school they taught me how to be

So pure in thought and word and deed

They didn't quite succeed

For everything I long to do

No matter when or where or who

Has one thing in common, too

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin

It's a sin

Everything I've ever done

Everything I ever do

Every place I've ever been

Everywhere I'm going to

It's a sin

Father, forgive me, I tried not to do it

Turned over a new leaf, then tore right through it

Whatever you taught me, I didn't believe it

Father, you fought me, 'cause I didn't care

And I still don't understand

So I look back upon my life

Forever with a sense of shame

I've always been the one to blame

For everything I long to do

No matter when or where or who

Has one thing in common, too

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin

It's a sin

Everything I've ever done

Everything I ever do

Every place I've ever been

Everywhere I'm going to - it's a sin

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin

(Confiteor Deo omnipotenti vobis fratres, quia peccavi nimis cogitatione, verbo, opere et omissione, mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa)

[trans. "I confess to almighty god, and to you my brothers, that I have sinned exceedingly in thought, word, act and omission,through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault"]

Let Go

Drink up baby down

Are you in or are you out?

Leave your things behind

'Cause it's all going off without you

Excuse me too busy you're writing your tragedy

These mishaps

You bubble-wrap

When you've no idea what you're like

So, let go, let go

Jump in

Oh well, what you waiting for?

It's all right

'Cause there's beauty in the breakdown

So, let go, let go

Just get in

Oh, it's so amazing here

It's all right

'cause there's beauty in the breakdown

It gains the more it gives

And then it rises with the fall

So hand me that remote

Can't you see that all that stuff's a sideshow?

Such boundless pleasure

We've no time for later

Now you can't await

your own arrival

you've twenty seconds to comply

So, let go, so let go

Jump in

Oh well, what you waiting for?

It's alright

'Cause there's beauty in the breakdown

So, let go, yeah let go

Just get in

Oh, it's so amazing here

It's all right

'Cause there's beauty in the breakdown

Evanescence - Breathe No More

I've been looking in the mirror for so long.

That I've come to believe my soul's on the other side.

All the little pieces falling, shatter.

Shards of me,

Too sharp to put back together.

Too small to matter,

But big enough to cut me into so many little pieces.

If I try to touch her,

And I bleed,

I bleed,

And I breathe,

I breathe no more.

Take a breath and I try to draw from my spirits well.

Yet again you refuse to drink like a stubborn child.

Lie to me,

Convince me that I've been sick forever.

And all of this,

Will make sense when I get better.

But I know the difference,

Between myself and my reflection.

I just can't help but to wonder,

Which of us do you love.

So I bleed,

I bleed,

And I breathe,

I breathe no...

Bleed,

I bleed,

And I breathe,

I breathe,

I breathe-

I breathe no more.

Joy Division - Passover

This is a crisis I knew had to come,

Destroying the balance I'd kept.

Doubting, unsettling and turning around,

Wondering what will come next.

Is this the role that you wanted to live?

I was foolish to ask for so much.

Without the protection and infancy's guard,

It all falls apart at first touch.

Watching the reel as it comes to a close,

Brutally taking its time,

People who change for no reason at all,

It's happening all of the time.

Can I go on with this train of events?

Disturbing and purging my mind,

Back out of my duties, when all's said and done,

I know that I'll lose every time.

Moving along in our God given ways,

Safety is sat by the fire,

Sanctuary from these feverish smiles,

Left with a mark on the door,

Is this the gift that I wanted to give?

Forgive and forget's what they teach,

Or pass through the deserts and wastelands once more,

And watch as they drop by the beach.

This is the crisis I knew had to come,

Destroying the balance I'd kept,

Turning around to the next set of lives,

Wondering what will come next.

Come back to me - Akon

Going crazy my heart is breaking

I can't sleep at all

Trying to get through this

Don't know how I'll do this

I know that I only got my self to blame (only got myself to blame)

But that doesn't help to ease the pain (doesn't help to ease the pain)

I'll just die if I can't see your face

[Chorus:]

Until you come back

I can't breath

Until you come back

I got no reason

Got my heart, my heart down on it's knees

I still need you beside me

[Verse 1:]

Now it's morning

Your still gone and

I still reach for you (still reach for you)

Don't know how to

Live without you

I will, I can take back all the hurt I've caused

(take back all the hurt I've caused)

If I could give back all the love I lost

(give back all the love I lost)

The price I pay is just to high of a cost yea

[Chorus:]

Until you come back

I can't breath

Until you come back

I got no reason

Got my heart, my heart down on it's knees

I still need you beside me

[Verse 2:]

Please forgive me (forgive me)

If we had one more chance in your life (one more chance in your life)

Till your with me

I'll be half a life until you come back (back back)

[Chorus:]

Until you come back

I can't breath

Until you come back

I got no reason

Got my heart, my heart down on it's knees

Cause I need you beside me

[Chorus:]

Until you come back

I can't breath

Until you come back

I got no reason

Got my heart, my heart down on it's knees

I still need you beside beside beside beside me

They painted up your secrets

With the lies they told to you

And the least they ever gave you

Was the most you ever knew

And I wonder where these dreams go

When the world gets in your way

What's the point in all this screaming?

No one's listening anyway

Your voice is small and fading

And you hide in here unknown

And your mother loves your father

'Cause she's got nowhere to go

And she wonders where these dreams go

'Cause the world got in her way

What's the point in ever trying?

Nothing's changing anyway

They press their lips against you

And you love the lies they say

And I tried so hard to reach you

But you're falling anyway

And you know I see right through you

'Cause the world gets in your way

What's the point in all this screaming?

You're not listening anyway

This just sums me up

"Breakeven" By The Script

I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing

Just prayin' to a god that I don't believe in

Cos I got time while she got freedom

Cos when a heart breaks no it don't break even

Her best days will be some of my worst

She finally met a man that's gonna put her first

While I'm wide awake she's no trouble sleeping

Cos when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven... even... no

What am I supposed to do when the best part of me was always you,

And what am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up that you're ok

I'm falling to pieces, yeah,

I'm falling to pieces

They say bad things happen for a reason

But no wise words gonna stop the bleeding

Cos she's moved on while I'm still grieving

And when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven even... no

What am I gonna to do when the best part of me was always you,

And what am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up that you're ok

I'm falling to pieces, yeah,

I'm falling to pieces, yeah,

I'm falling to pieces

(One still in love while the other ones leaving)

I'm falling to pieces

(Cos when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven)

Oh you got his heart and my heart and none of the pain

You took your suitcase, I took the blame.

Now I'm try'na make sense of what little remains ooh

Cos you left me with no love and no love to my name.

I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing

Just prayin' to a god that I don't believe in

Cos I got time while she got freedom

Cos when a heart breaks no it don't break

No it don't break

No it don't break even no

What am I gonna do when the best part of me was always you and

What am I suppose to say when I'm all choked up that you're ok

(Oh glad your okay now)

I'm falling to pieces yeah

(Oh I'm glad your okay)

I'm falling to pieces yeah

(One still in love while the other ones leaving)

I'm falling to pieces

(Cos when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven)

Oh it don't break even no

Oh it don't break even no

Oh it don't break even no

We never talked about it

But I hear the blame was mine

I'd call you up to say I'm sorry

But I wouldn't want to waste your time

'Cos I love you, but I can't take any more

There's a look I can't describe in your eyes

Yes we could try, like we tried before

But you keep on telling me those lies

Do you remember... ?

There seemed no way to make up

'Cos it seemed your mind was set

And the way you looked it told me

It's a look I know I'll never forget

You could've come over to my side

You could've let me know

You could've tried to see the distance between us

But it seemed too far for you to go.

Do you remember... ?

Through all of my life

In spite of all the pain

You know people are funny sometimes

'Cos they just can't wait

To get hurt again

Do you remember... ?

There are things we won't recall

Feelings we'll never find

It's taken so long to see it

Cos we never seemed to have the time

There was always something more important to do

More important to say

But "I love you" wasn't one of those things

And now it's too late

Do you remember... ?

Half of what I say is meaningless

But I say it just to reach you, Julia

Julia, Julia, oceanchild, calls me

So I sing a song of love, Julia

Julia, seashell eyes, windy smile, calls me

So I sing a song of love, Julia

Her hair of floating sky is shimmering, glimmering

In the sun

Julia, Julia, morning moon, touch me

So I sing a song of love, Julia

When I cannot sing my heart

I can only speak my mind, Julia

Julia, sleeping sand, silent cloud, touch me

So I sing a song of love, Julia

Hum hum ... calls me

So I sing a song of love for Julia,

Can't you see me falling an endless fall?

Can't you hear me calling a neverending call?

Can't you see me bleeding? I'm losing control.

Can't you see me dying? I'm dying alone.

Well... you didn't wake up this morning

Because you didn't go to bed.

You were watching the whites of your eyes turn red.

The calendar on your wall is ticking the days off.

You've been reading some old letters --

You smile and think how much you've changed.

All the money in the world

Couldn't buy back those days.

You pull back the curtains, and the sun burns into your eyes,

You watch a plane flying across a clear blue sky.

THIS IS THE DAY -- Your life will surely change.

THIS IS THE DAY -- When things fall into place.

You could've done anything if you'd wanted

And all your friends and family think that you're lucky.

But the side of you they'll never see

Is when you're left alone with the memories

That hold your life together like glue

You pull back the curtains, and the sun burns into your eyes,

You watch a plane flying across a clear blue sky.

THIS IS THE DAY -- Your life will surely change.

THIS IS THE DAY -- When things fall into place.

Run - Leona Lewis

I'll sing it

One last time for you

Then we really have to go

You've been the only thing

That's right

In all I've done

And I can barely look at you

But every single time I do

I know we'll make it anywhere

Away from here

Light up, light up

As if you have a choice

Even if you cannot hear my voice

I'll be right beside you dear

Louder louder

And we'll run for our lives

I can hardly speak I understand

Why you

Can't raise your voice to say

To think

I might not see those eyes

Makes it so hard not to cry

And as we say

Our long goodbye

I nearly do

hmm hmm ..

Light up, Light up

As if you have a choice

Even if you cannot hear my voice

I'll be right beside you dear

Uh Uh

Louder louder

And we'll run for our lives

I can hardly speak I understand

Why you

Can't raise your voice to say

Uhhhhh, uhhhhhh, ahhhhh ahhhh

acapella kelis

I was walking, was living

My melody was acapella

There’s a beat I was missing

No tune, or a scale, I could play

-

The sound in the distance

No orchestra playing together

Like a boat out to sea,

The silence was too deafening!

-

So come and revive me

I can’t feel my heartbeat

Just me surviving alone

-

(Chorus)

Before you,

My whole life was acapella!

Now a symphony’s

The only song to sing

Before you,

My whole life was acapella!

Now a symphony’s

The only song to sing

-

Everything was the same

One color was just like the others

An assembly routine

My memories were all black and white

Till I stopped over-thinking

Decided to draw back the curtains

And I cleared all the cobwebs

And began to let in the light

-

So come and revive me

I can’t feel my heartbeat

Just me surviving alone

-

(Chorus)

Before you,

My whole life was acapella!

Now a symphony’s

The only song to sing

Before you,

My whole life was acapella!

Now a symphony’s

The only song to sing

-

(Bridge – 3X)

You are the drum in my heart beat

Bass and guitar lead

Stuck on the notes you play

My heart that you play on

Grab like a crayon

I can’t walk away

-

(Chorus – 2X)

Before you,

My whole life was acapella!

Now a symphony’s

The only song to sing

Before you,

My whole life was acapella!

Now a symphony’s

The only song to sing

Bon Jovi (lyrics by Jon and Richie)

Blame It On The Love of Rock 'n' Roll

First time I heard the music

I thought it was my own

I could feel it in my heartbeat

I could feel it in my bones

My momma thinks I'm crazy

My dad says I'm insane

I got this boogie woogie fever

That's burning in my veins

They tried to take me to a doctor

But it's too late for me

Then they took me to a preacher

That they saw on their TV

Who said that for a small donation

My lost soul would be saved

I said I don't think so preacher

I'll come back another day

All I want, is to be a Rolling Stone

They don't understand what we all know

It feels so good that it ought to be illegal

I got my vaccination from a phonograph needle

I'll never grow up and I'll never grow old

Blame it on the love of rock & roll

My teachers didn't like me they always

Tried to put me down

'Cause I wore my hair too long

I played my music way too loud

Every little boy wants to learn to play guitar

So he can pick up all the chicks

And be a rock-n-roll star

They said it won't last, but they misunderstood

If people think it's bad then I'll be bad for good

It feels so good that it ought to be illegal

I got my vaccination from a phonograph needle

I'll never grow up and I'll never grow old

Blame it on the love of rock & roll

Blame it on the love, blame it on the love

Dad don't understand what the little girls know

Blame it on the love of rock-n-roll

All I wanted, all I ever needed

My guitar gave to me

Every song I've sung blame it on love

Every war I've won blame it on love

Everything I've done blame it on love

Blame it on the love of rock-n-roll

It feels so good that it ought to be illegal

I got my vaccination from a phonograph needle

I'll never grow up and I'll never grow old

Blame it on the love of rock & roll

Blame it on the love, blame it on the love

Dad don't understand

what the little girls know

Blame it on the love of rock-n-roll

"I Can Wait Forever"

You look so beautiful today

When you're sitting there it's hard for me to look away

So i try to find the words that i could say

I know distance doesn't matter but you feel so far away

And I cant lie

Every time I leave my heart turns gray

And I want to come back home to see your face

And I

Cause I just cant take it

Another day without you with me

Is like a blade that cuts right through me

But I can wait

I can wait forever

When you call my heart stops beating

When you're gone it wont stop bleeding

But I can wait

I can wait forever

You look so beautiful today

It's like every time I turn around I see your face

The thing I miss the most is waking up next to you

When I look into your eyes, I wish that I could stay

And I cant lie

Every time I leave my heart turns gray

And I want to come back home to see your face

And I

Cause I just cant take it

Another day without you with me

Is like a blade that cuts right through me

But I can wait

I can wait forever

When you call my heart stops beating

When you're gone it wont stop bleeding

But I can wait

I can wait forever

I know it feels like forever

I guess that's just the price I gotta pay

But when I come back home to feel your touch

Makes it better

Till that day

Theres nothing else that I can do

And I just cant take it

I just cant take it

Another day without you with me

Is like a blade that cuts right through me

But i can wait

I can wait forever (I can wait forever)

When you call my heart stops beating

When you're gone it wont stop bleeding

But I can wait

I can wait forever

I can wait forever

I can wait forever...

This is the way you left me,

I’m not pretending,

No hope, no love, no glory,

No happy ending

This is the way that we love,

Like its forever,

Then live the rest of our life,

Both not together

Wake up in the morning,

Stumble on my life,

Can’t get no love without sacrifice,

If anything should happen,

I guess I wish you well,

Mmm a little bit of heaven,

But a little bit of hell

This is the hardest story,

that I have ever told,

No hope, or love, or glory,

Happy endings gone forever more

I feel as if I’m wasting,

And I waste every day

This is the way you left me,

I’m not pretending,

No hope, no love, no glory,

No happy ending

This is the way that we love,

Like its forever,

Then live the rest of our life,

Both not together

Too black in the morning,

Someone’s on my mind,

Can’t get no rest,

Keep walking around,

If I pretend that nothing ever went wrong,

I can get to my sleep I can dream now and just carry on??

This is the hardest story,

that I have ever told,

No hope, or love, or glory,

Happy endings gone forever more,

I feel as if I’m wasting,

And I waste every day,

Oh I feel as if I’m wasting,

And I waste every day

This is the way you left me,

I’m not pretending,

No hope, no love, no glory,

No happy ending

This is the way that we love,

Like its forever,

Then live the rest of our life,

Both not together

A little bit of love

Little bit of love (repeated)

This is the way you left me,

I’m not pretending,

No hope, no love, no glory,

No happy ending

This is the way that we love,

Like its forever,

Then live the rest of our life,

Both not together

This is the way you left me,

I’m not pretending,

No hope, no love, no glory,

No happy ending

This is the way that we love,

Like its forever,

Then live the rest of our life,

Both not together

This is the way you left me,

I’m not pretending,

No hope, no love, no glory,

No happy ending

This is the way that we love,

Like its forever,

Then live the rest of our life,

Both not together

You have a way of coming easily to me.

And when you take, you take the very best of me.

So I start a fight 'cause I need to feel somethin'

And you do what you want 'cause I'm not what you wanted.

(CHORUS)

Oh, what a shame.

What a rainy ending given to a perfect day.

Just walk away, no use defending words that you will never say.

And now that I'm sittin' here thinkin' it through, I've never been anywhere cold as you.

You put up walls and paint them all a shade of gray.

And I stood there lovin' you and WISHED them all away.

And you come away with a great little story of a mess of a dreamer with the nerve to adore you.

(CHORUS)

Oh, what a shame.

What a rainy ending given to a perfect day.

So just walk away, no use defending words that you will never say.

And now that I'm sittin' here thinkin' it through, I've never been anywhere cold as you.

You never did give a damn thing, honey.

But I cried, cried for you.

And I know you wouldn't have told nobody if I died, died for you.

(Died for you)

Oh, what a shame.

What a rainy ending give to a perfect day. Every smile you fake is so condescending.

Counted all the scars you made.

Now that I'm sittin here thinkin' it through, I've never been anywhere cold as you.

And you, can bring me to my knees

Again

All the times

That I could beg you please,

In vain

All the times

That I felt insecure

For you

And I leave

My burdens at the door

But I'm on the outside

And I'm looking in

I can see through you

See your true colors

'Cause inside you're ugly

You're ugly like me

I can see through you

See to the real you

All the times

That I felt like this won't end

It was for you

And I taste

What I could never have

It was from you.

All the times

That I've cried

My intentions

Were full of pride

But I waste

More time than anyone

But I'm on the outside

And I'm looking in

I can see through you

See your true colors

'Cause inside you're ugly

You're ugly like me

I can see through you

See to the real you

All the times

That I've cried

All this wasted

It's all inside

And I feel

All this pain

Stuffed it down

It's back again

And I lie

Here in bed

All alone

I can't mend

But I feel

Tomorrow will be okay

But I'm on the outside

And I'm looking in

I can see through you

See your true colors

'Cause inside you're ugly

You're ugly like me

I can see through you

See to the real you

Thanks broken butterfly.

That just hurt me more

and for other posters I am apparently the cause of all her pain.

Never mind that I gave pain too

Julia

cyber space wonderful. How about talking and sorting.

You think this is doing either of us any good?

We can try to dismiss our feeling pretend they don't exist

who are you kidding ?

I really want you(x2)

Many prophets preach on bended knee

Many clerics wasted wine

Do the bloody sheets

On those cobbled streets mean

I have wasted time

Are there silver shores on paradise?

Can I come in from the cold?

I killed a man in a far away land

My enemy I'm told.

I really want you to really want me

But I really don't know if you can do that

I know you want to know what's right

But I know it's so hard for you to do that

And time's running out as often it does

And often dictates that you can't do that

But fate can't break this feeling inside

That's burning up through my veins

I really want you

I really want you

I really want you... now

No matter what I say or do

The message isn’t getting through

And you’re listening to the sound

Of my breaking heart

I really want you

I really want you

Is a poor man rich in solitude?

Or will mother earth complain

Did the beggar pray for a sunny day but

Lady luck for rain?

They say a million people bow and scrape

To an effigy of gold

I saw life begin

And the ship we're in

And history unfold

I really want you to really want me

But I really don't know if you can do that

I know you want to know what's right

But I know it's so hard for you to do that

And time's running out as often it does

And often dictates that you can't do that

But fate can't break this feeling inside

That's burning up through my veins

I really want you

I really want you

I really want you... now

No matter what I say or do

The message isn't getting through

And your listening to the sound

of my breaking heart (x2)

I really want you(x3)
