dealing with a heart I didn't break...

Artist: Drake ft. Rihanna
Song: Take Care
Album: Take Care
LISTEN NOW!

[Rihanna] 
I know you've been hurt, by, someone else. 
I can tell by the way, you carry yourself. 
If you let me, here's what I'll do. 
I'll take care of you. 
I've loved and I've lost. 

[Drake] [Verse1] 
I've asked about you, and they told me things, 
But, my mind didn't change and I still feel the same 
What's a life with no fun, please don't be so ashamed. 
I've had mine, you've had yours. 
We both know, we know. 
They won't get you like I will, 
My only wish is I die real, 
Cause that truth hurts and those lies heal. 
And you can't sleep thinking that he lies still. 
So you cry still, tears all in her pillowcase, 
Big girls all get a little taste, oh 
Pushing me away, so I give her space oh. 
Dealing with a heart that I didn't break. 
I'll be there for you, I will care for you 
I keep thinking you just don't know. 
Tryna run from that, say you done with that, 
On your face girl it just don't show. 
When your ready, just say your ready. 
When all the baggage just ain't as heavy, 
And the party's over just don't forget me. 
We'll change the pace, and we'll just go slow. 

[Hook] [Drake] 
You won't ever have to worry. 
You won't ever have to hide. 
And you have seen all my mistakes, 
So look me in my eyes. 
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/d/drake/take+care_20975670.html ] 
[Rihanna] 
Cause if you let me, here's what I'll do. 
I'll take care of you. 
I've loved and I've lost. 

[Verse 2] [Drake] 
It's my birthday, I'll get high if I want to, 
Can't deny that I want you, 
But I'll lie if I have to. Cause you don't say you love me, 
To your friends when they ask you. 
Even though we both know that you do, you do. 
One time, been in love one time. 
You and all your girls in the club one time. 
All so convinced that you're following your heart, 
Cause your mind don't control what it does sometimes. 
We all have our nights though, 
Don't be so ashamed. 
I've had mine, you've had yours. 
We both know, we know. 

[Hook] 
You hate being alone when you ain't the only one. 
You hate the fact that you bought the dream 
When they sold you one. 
And you love your friends, 
But somebody should have told you somethin, 
To save you. 
Instead they say... 

("Don't tell me, I don't care, if you hurt. 
I don't tell you, you don't care if you're true. 
Don't tell me, I don't care, if you hurt. 
I don't tell you, you don't care, if you're true.") 

[Rihanna] 
I know you've been hurt, By, someone else. 
I can tell by the way, you carry yourself. 
If you let me, here's what I'll do. 
I'll take care of you. 
I've loved and I've lost.

Tonight I'm going to bury that horse in the ground.

Artist: Florence + the Machine
Song: Shake It Out
Album: Ceremonials
LISTEN NOW!

Regrets collect like old friends
Here to relive your darkest moments
I can see no way, I can see no way
And all of the ghouls come out to play

And every demon wants his pound of flesh
But I like to keep some things to myself
I like to keep my issues strong
It's always darkest before the dawn

And I've been a fool and I've been blind
I can never leave the past behind
I can see no way, I can see no way
I'm always dragging that horse around

And our love is pastured such a mournful sound
Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground
So I like to keep my issues strong
But it's always darkest before the dawn

Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh woaaah
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh woaaaah

And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off, oh woah

I am done with my graceless heart
So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart
Cause I like to keep my issues strong
It's always darkest before the dawn

I'll never understand my heart

Artist: Rachael Yamagata
Song: Even if I Don't
Album: Chesapeake
LISTEN NOW!


miss you most in the morning
Most every morning
I wake up thinking
I could call
I could come visit
I could come running
We could relive it

But when I think of all that we've been through
Going back to you
Seems such a foolish thing to do
I hope you know
That even if I don't
I wanted to

All those words
You said at the ending
Were pretty revealing
And I can't forget them
All those ways
We missed at connecting
Despite all our trying
It always came back to
What I couldn't give you

So when I think of starting up again
Or trying to be friends
It seems impossible to do
I hope you know
That even if we can't
I wanted to

Who knows why
Two people perfectly aligned
Should ever have to find themselves apart
I'll never understand my heart

I miss you
Most in the morning
Most every morning
I wake up crying

You feel like breathing

Artist: Rosi Golan
Song: Come Around to Me
Album: The Gypsy and the Drifter
LISTEN NOW!

So high tonight and I don’t feel like coming down
I can lie to you all my days, But you’re the one, you’re the one

And I’m a fool for waiting so long to let you know
Come around come around come around come around to me
There’s something in between you and I come around come around to me
You feel like breathing, Come around come around come around come around to me
Like sunlight, won’t you come and lay a ray down? You’re the one.
I could run, I could run for the life of me.
But where would that get me? Where would that lead?
And I’m a fool for waiting so long
Come around come around come around come around to me
There’s something in between you and I come around come around to me
You feel like breathing, Come around come around come around come around to me
Can’t you see? You’re my life line
Come around come around come around come around to me
There’s something in between you and I come around come around to me
You feel like breathing, Come around come around come around come around to me

Your mouth is poison, your mouth is wine

Artist: The Civil Wars
Song: Poison and Wine
Album: Barton Hallow
LISTEN NOW!

You only know what I want you to
I know everything you don't want me to
Oh your mouth is poison, your mouth is wine
Oh you think your dreams are the same as mine
Oh I don't love you but I always will
Oh I don't love you but I always will
Oh I don't love you but I always will
I always will

I wish you'd hold me when I turn my back
The less I give the more I get back
Oh your hands can heal, your hands can bruise
I don't have a choice but I still choose you
Oh I don't love you but I always will
Oh I don't love you but I always will
Oh I don't love you but I always will
Oh I don't love you but I always will
Oh I don't love you but I always will
Oh I don't love you but I always will
Oh I don't love you but I always will
I always will
I always will
I always will
I always will
I always will

You're barely waking but I'm tangled up in you

Artist: Howie Day

The dawn is breaking
A light shining through
You're barely waking
And I'm tangled up in you, yeah

I'm open, you're closed
Where I follow, you'll go
I worry I won't see your face
Light up again

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills my mind
I somehow find you and I collide

I'm quiet you know
You make a first impression
I've found I'm scared to know
I'm always on your mind

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the stars refuse to shine
Out of the back you fall in time
I somehow find you and I collide

Don't stop here
I lost my place
I'm close behind

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills your mind
You finally find you and I collide

You finally find you and I collide
You finally find you and I collide

Throw out my heart and get a new one

Currently a bit obsessed.





Oh, oh, starry eyed
Hit, hit, hit, hit, hit me with lightning

Handle bars, and then I let go
Let go for anyone
Take me in, and throw out
My heart and get a new one

Next thing, we're touching
You look at me it's like you hit me with lightning

Oh, everybody's starry eyed
And everybody knows
Oh, everybody's starry eyed
And my body goes

So we burst into colors
Colors and carousels
Fall head first
Like paper planes and playground games

Next thing, we're touching
You look at me it's like you hit me with lightning
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/e/ellie-goulding-lyrics/starry-eyed-lyrics.html ]

Oh, everybody's starry eyed
And everybody knows
Oh, everybody's starry eyed
And my body goes

Next thing we're touching
Next thing we're touching
Next thing we're touching
Next thing we're touching

Next thing we're touching
Next thing we're touching
Next thing we're touching
Next thing we're touching

Hit me with lightning

Oh, everybody's starry eyed
And everybody knows
Oh, everybody's starry eyed
And my body goes

Oh, everybody's starry eyed
And everybody knows
Oh, everybody's starry eyed
And my body goes
