Jar of Hearts

Don’t you know I’m not your ghost anymore.
You lost the love I love the most.
I learn to live half alive and now you want me one more time.

Who do you think you are?
Running around leaving scars.
Collecting your jar of hearts.
Tearing love apart.
You’re gonna catch a cold from the ice inside your soul.

So don’t come back for me.

- Christina Perri, "Jar of Hearts"

Sixty Seconds

For every minute you are angry, you lose sixty seconds of happiness.

Gravity

Set me free, leave me be
I don't wanna fall another moment into your gravity.
Here I am and I stand so tall
I'm just the way I'm supposed to be
But you're on to me and all over me.

- Sara Bareilles, "Gravity"

Sky Is Falling

And when the sky is falling,
don't look outside the window.
Step back and hear I'm calling.
Give up, don't take the fast road.
It's just your doubt that binds you.
Just drop those thoughts behind you, now.
Change your mind.
Let go too soon.
Sit down, you're sinking,
there's no one to watch you.
Skip time, you're thinking,
there's no one to stop you.
And all the bridges you've burned,
leave you trapped off at all sides.
And now the tables do turn,
and it's all gone, what's left for you.

It's Beginning to Get to Me

And it's beginning to get to me
That I know more of the stars and sea
Than I do of what's in your head
Barely touching in our cold bed
Are you beginning to get get my point
That all this fighting with aching joints
It's doing nothing but tire us out
No one knows what this fight's about
It's so thrilling but also wrong
Don't have to prove that you are so strong
'Cause I can carry you on my back
After our enemies attack
I tried to tell you before I left
But I was screaming under my breath
You are the only thing that makes sense
Just ignore all this present tense
We need to feel breathless with love
And not collapse under its weight
I'm gasping for the air to fill
My lungs with everything I've lost
