He heals the brokenhearted
and bandages their wounds.
He counts the stars
and calls them all by name.

What to Do by Demi Lovato


Tell me what to do about you
I already know what I can see in your eyes
When you're selling the truth
'Cause it's been a long time coming
So where you running to?
Tell me what to do about you

Chorus:
You got your way of speaking
Even the air you're breathing
You could be anything
But you don't know what to believe in
You got the world before you
If I could only show you
But you don't know what to do

Tell me what to do about you
Something on your mind
Baby all of the time
You could bring out a room
Oh yeah
This day has a long time coming
I say it's nothing new
Tell me what to do about you

You got your way of speaking
Even the air you're breathing
You could be anything
But you don't know what to believe in
You've got the world before you
If I could only show you
But you don't know what to do

You think about it
Can you ever change?
Finish what you started
Make me want to stay
Tired of conversation
Show me something real
Find out what your part is
Play it how you feel

Tell me what to do, about you
Is there anything, anyway
Won't break us in two
'Cause it's been a long time coming
I can't stop loving you
Tell me what to do about you

You got your way of speaking
Even the air you're breathing
You could be anything
But you don't know what to do believe in
You've got the world before you
If I could only show you
But you don't know what to do
Oooh
You could be anything
But you don't know what to believe in
World before you
Show you
But you don't know what to do
Yeah

Back to September

Looking back I realize I made a lot of mistakes with you. You were my first love, and when I finally had you like I always dreamed of, it was perfect at first. Then, we just started to fight, we made mistakes, and I just got scared. I had gotten scared before, I must have ended it four times before that. Why can't I just let you go? It turns out freedom isn't anything but missing you. I'd go back and change it but I can't, and I got back to September all the time. I hear your in love, I hope she treats you better than I did. But this is me swallowing my pride saying I'm sorry for that night. You gave me all your love and all I gave you was goodbye. I wish I could go back and change it, but I can't. And I know the chain is on your door, so I understand. I just thought you should know.. that I lied. I do love you, forever and always.


      I may regret the way we ended,

but I will never regret what we had.

By Your Side

It really is true when they say: 'Friends come and go, but you and me.. We're forever.' I've had good friends, and I've had my fair share of bad ones too. I always thought I was better friends with the ones I had known longer, but that wasn't true. I realized, that it wasn't about the one's you knew the longest. It was about the friends that came, and never left. The friends that saw you at some of your worst moments, and still love you. The ones that are always making you laugh, the ones you can trust. It was sad to think that I had only had friends that I had known forever, but none of them were good friends.. They actually took advantage of me because I was nice to them and genuine. This year I realized I had made some really good friends, friends that have always been here for me.. And aren't leaving. I think that my relationships with my friends, have been the best. I could not ask for better people in my life. They are leaving, and that's all I could have ever asked for.

       It's not about who you've known the longest,
its who stayed by your side and never left.

Permanent Marker by Taylor Swift

 I know he loved you
A long time ago
I ain't jealous of you
Just thought you should know
You were never good enough for him or anything like me
So you might as well sit back 'cause I ain't tryin' to show maturity


X is the shape I drew through your face

In permanent marker
Oh yeah
Just like the mark you knew you were makin'
Who do you think you are
To write on his heart
In permanent marker

So I found that picture

Of you in that green dress
Sure had a good time
Cleanin' up that mess
He found 30 other pieces but he'll never find 'em all
Tried to tape them back together
Now he knows to keep it off the wall


X is the shape I drew through your face

In permanent marker
Oh yeah
Just like the mark you knew you were makin'
Who do you think you are
To write on his heart
In permanent marker

Well I don't appreciate you callin him to reminisce

The only reason is you're seein' just how much better off he is


X is the shape I drew through your face

In permanent marker
Ohhhhhh
Just like the mark you knew you were makin'
Who do you think you are
To Write on his heart


X is the shape I drew through your face

In permanent marker
Oh yeah
Just like the mark you knew you were makin'
Who do you think you are
To Write on his heart
In permanent marker
In permanent marker
Oh

Back to December by Taylor Swift



I'm so glad you made time to see me.
How's life, tell me how's your family?
I haven't seen them in a while.
You've been good, busier then ever.
We small talk, work and the weather
Your guard is up and I know why.
Cause the last time you saw me
Is still burned in the back of your mind.
You gave me roses and I left them there to die.

So this is me swallowing my pride,
Standing in front of you
saying I'm sorry for that night,
And I go back to December all the time.
Turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you,
Wishing that I realized what I had when you were mine.
I go back to December, turn around and make it all right.
I go back to December all the time.

These days I haven't been sleeping
Staying up playing back myself leaving,
When your birthday passed and I didn't call.
And I think about summer, all the beautiful times
I watched you laughing from the passenger side
Realized that I loved you in the fall.
Then the cold came, the dark days
when fear crept into my mind.
You gave me all your love
and all I gave you was goodbye.

So this is me swallowing my pride, Standing in front of you
saying I'm sorry for that night.
And I go back to December all the time.
Turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you,
Wishing that I realized what I had when you were mine.
I go back to December, turn around and change my own mind.
I go back to December all the time

I miss your tan skin, your sweet smile,
so good to me, so right,
And how you held me in your arms that September night,
The first time you ever saw me cry.
Maybe this is wishful thinking,
Probably mindless dreaming
If we loved again I swear I'd love you right.

I'd go back in time and change it but I can't
So if the chain is on your door, I understand.

But this is me swallowing my pride, Standing in front of you
saying I'm sorry for that night,
And I go back to December.
Turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you,
Wishing that I realized what I had when you were mine.
I'd go back to December turn around and make it alright.
I'd go back to December turn around and change my own mind.
I go back to December all the time.
All the time

The Technicolor Phase

Where do you go when you've reached the end of the line? When everything in your life is black and white, when you've hit rock bottom, there's only one way to go, up. I never thought I'd doubt myself, but I did. I gave up on myself. Suddenly, I didn't want to pretend to be happy anymore. I just broke down and cried. It felt good to just let out my emotions and not put up this fake facade. After that moment, I decided I couldn't pretend anymore. I wanted to be myself. I wanted to be happy. The next day I woke and I felt like I was living in a different world. I saw color everywhere. I did not just see black letters on pages, meaningless words that I heard every day. I saw ink spiraling, forming pictures. I saw the blue in the sky and imagined an underwater world flying right before my very eyes. I saw the world in a whole new life. The grass was not just merely green anymore, it was living, breathing, giving life. My entire world felt refreshed. I was in a whole new world. I was soaked in color, soaked in life, completely renewed. I was happy. The world wasn't colorless anymore, and all it took was a moment, a song, and my eyes were opened. Don't be blinded. Soak yourself in the rays of color.



I have dreamed in my life, dreams that have stayed with me ever after, and changed my ideas; they have gone through and through me, like wine through water, and altered the color of my mind. 
Emily Bronte
