Rooftops

by Lostprophets- just another one of those songs that reminds me of someone, also, i love to sing really loud to this song :)

when your time is up
when our lives are done
will we say, we've had our fun

will we make a mark this time
will we always say we tried

(chorus)
[we're standing on the rooftops
everybody scream your heart out
standing on the rooftops
everybody scream your heart out

standing on the rooftops
everybody scream your heart out
this is all we got now
everybody scream your heart out]

all the love i've met
i have no regrets
it if all ends now, i'm set

will we make a mark this time
will we always say we tried

(chorus)

standing on the rooftops
wait until the bomb drops
this is all we got now
scream until your heart stops

never gonna regret
watching every sunset
we'll listen to your heartbeat
all the love that we found

scream your heart out
scream your heart out
scream your heart out
scream your

(chorus)

everybody scream your

Kids In Love

by Mayday Parade- i absolutely love MP! i discovered their existence on my iPod sometime last winter and i just love them! i hope to see them in concert at Warped Tour in a couple weeks. anyways, this song is a happy song that i decided to put on. well i guess parts of it are happy.. well just enjoy nonetheless! plus its on my playlist on this blog! how perfect! haha

i look back to the one and only sumemr time
and my girl was the envy of every friends of mine
she slept safely in my arms
we were so young and invincible

closed lips, she was never one to kiss and tell
those trips in the summer never went so well
young love is such dumb love
call it what you want it was still enough

(chorus)
and still out of my reach
and still all of the things
that i want in my life
how could i ask you to leave me?
and we were just kids in love
the summer was full of mistakes we wouldnt learn from
the first kiss stole the breath from my lips
why did the last one tear us apart?

we'd walk down the beach counting every star
out hearts beat inside our chest
leaving us gasping for every breath

her smile with the wind blowing through her hair
was so contagious in the air
so satisfying and i'm still smiling

(chorus)

we're falling down, can we pick up the pieces?
we're at an all time low, how do we get it back?
we're falling down, can we pick up the pieces?
we're falling down, can we pick up the pieces now?

we were just kids in love
the summer was full of mistakes we wouldnt learn from
the first kiss stole the breath from my lips
why did the last one tear us apart?

Screaming Infidelities

by Dashboard Confessional- i dont really have a disclaimer for this song, except for that i am only putting a few lyrics on

i'm reading your note over again
there's not a word that i comprehend
except when you signed it
"i will love you always and forever"

well as for now i'm gonna hear the saddest songs
and sit alone and wonder
how you're making out
but as for me, i wish that i was anywhere with anyone
making out

i'm missing your laugh
how did it break?
and when did your eyes begin to look fake?
i hope you're as happy as you're pretending

i am alone
in my defeat i wish i knew you were safely at home

your hair, it's everywhere
screaming infidelities
and taking its wear

Breathe

by Taylor Swift- this is a good breakup song. one that ive used countless times. not that im going through a breakup or anything, i was just listening to it earlier and it brought back some memories....

i see your face in my mind as i drive away
'cause none of us thought it was gonna end that way
people are people and sometimes we change our minds
but it's killing me to see you go after all this time

music starts playin like the end of a sad movie
its the kind of ending you dont really want to see
cause its tragedy and itll only bring you down
now i dont know what to be without you around

and we know its never simple, never easy
never a clean break, no one here to save me
you're the only thing i know like the back of my hand

and i can't breathe
without you, but i have to
breathe without you, but i have to

never wanted this, never wanted to see you hurt
every little bump in the road i tried to swerve
people are people and sometimes it doesnt work out
nothing we say is gonna save us from the fall out

it's two a.m., feeling like i just lost a friend
hope you know its not easy, easy for me
i cant breathe without you, but i have to
i'm sorry, i'm sorry, i'm sorry

Too Late

by Me
7/9/10

im dying to tell you
how much i really love you
i didnt realize it before
it became too late

and now youre gone
wont be back for years
things had ended badly between us
but time had run out to fix it

the memories still haunt me
but theres no one to tell how it feels
no one would understand
maybe not even you

the years will pass
and i'll try to find someone new
but there's no way i can forget
when you're always on my mind

we had started out as friends
then something changed when we kissed
and we would never be the same again
because what we had was real

we knew each other so well
we were best friends for so long
there are so many thing i wish i could change now
so many things that i would have done different

i still remember our first kiss
who would have thought
after a kiss like that
we would end up like this

if i could have had more time
then we would be inseparable again
but you had someone new
so i tried to find my own

the search didnt last long
it was all a mistake to leave you
if i could go back
i wouldnt have given up so easily

then things changed again
the distance tore us apart
and there was nothing i could do or say
to change your mind

i messed us up
and yet you say you still love me
then who is this other girl?
what do you expect from me?

you still had to go
and all i can do is wait
for someone just like you to come along
and realize that it was always you i was waiting for

your letters drive me crazy
i tell myself not to write back
but i end up doing it anyway
because i'm not ready to give up

a lot will change while you're gone
my dreams and wishes now seem so far away
so i run from this fantasy
hoping that reality isn't far off

i thought i got over you
but the memories are unforgettable
so i pulled out a notebook
and these words came

i'm dying to tell you
how much i really love you
i didnt realize it until now
and now it's too late

The First Time

by Family Force 5- this song you wouldnt think that the Phamily would normally have, but while listening to some of their harder stuff i came across this song and just fell in love with it

i got these memories, they're all of you and me
i've been recording them ever since i was seventeen
push playback then rewind
i see us meeting for the very first time

a mental note of you, you sang my melody
first bar in a lifelong symphony
the prelude to a kiss
my heart's pounding as a reminisce
press repeat
'cause i want to see

(chorus)
the first time that i saw your face
the first time that you spoke my name
the first time that i heard you say
there's a first time with me everyday

the first time that i felt your touch
the first time i couldnt get enough

another memory, when you first looked at me
i hit pause and then love hit me back
under attack stopped me in my tracks
there you go again, your eyes give me a flashback

remember that time, we stayed up all night
i swear we danced until we saw daylight
step by step and frame by frame
slow motion, let me see you again
press repeat
'cause i have to see

(chorus)

the first time that i felt your touch
the first time i couldnt get enough
the first time that i heard you say
there's a first time with me everyday

no matter what i do
i wont fast forward anything with you
i know you feel it too
the first time i saw love i was with you
press repeat
'cause i want to see

(chorus)

the first time that i felt your touch
the first time i couldnt get enough
the first time that i heard you say
there's a first time with me everyday

Old School

by Hedley- this song has too many memories from last fall. it reminds me of a very dear friend of mine, a friend who i have gone through so much with. this was "our song". i miss him.

dont believe everything happiness says
nothing feels better than hiding these days
we bury our fears in the drink, in these tears
for the days we believed we could fly

so call up your brothers and sisters and friends
we'll go back to the place where the night never ends
we'll remember the fires, the burning car tires
boy how in the hell did we get here?

(chorus)
so why don't you meet me, down behind our old school
we'll waste away the weekend with perfect regard for how
cavalier we used to be, that beautiful insanity
the apathy's surrounding me
don't close your eyes or we'll fade away

over and over and over again
we sat down for a minute, grew up into men
now we're putting out fires and changing car tires
man how in the hell did we get here?

(chorus)

and we'll never get back what we gave away
when we still have that fire in our eyes
don't believe everything happiness says
nothings as real as our old reckless ways
when we drink by the fires
the burning car tires
bad girls and good liars
the dreams we'd conspire
the days we went crazy
the nights wild and hazy
man how in the hell did we get here?

(chorus)

don't close your eyes or we'll fade away

Already Gone

by Kelly Clarkson- this song is one of my many break-up songs, it doesn't apply to my most recent one, but just another one, one that the memories keep haunting me with

remember all the things we wanted
now all our memories, they're haunted
we were always meant to say goodbye

even with our fists held high
it never would've worked out right
we were never meant for do or die

i didnt want us to burn out
i didnt come here to hold you, now i cant stop

(chorus)
i want you to know that it doesnt matter
where we take this road someone's gotta go
and i want you to know you couldnt have loved me better
but i want you to move on so i'm already gone

looking at you makes it harder
but i know that you'll find another
that doesnt always make you want to cry

started with a perfect kiss then
we could feel the poison set in
perfect couldnt keep this love alive

you know that i love you so
i love you enough to let go

(chorus)

i'm already gone, already gone
you cant make it feel right when you know that it's wrong
i'm already gone, already gone
there's no moving on so i'm already gone

Life After You

by Daughtry- this song has been on my iPod for awhile and somehow I just discovered that I had it, which is a good thing because recently I had a music purge, so obviously it made the cut! I have been listening to it a lot the past few days and I feel the need to share it for today's post.

ten miles from town and i just broke down
spittin' out smoke on the side of the road
i'm out here alone just tryin' to get home
to tell you i was wrong but you already know

believe me i won't stop at nothin'
to see you so i've started runnin'

all that i'm after is a life full of laughter
as long as i'm laughin' with you
i'm thinking that all that still matters is love ever after
after the life we've been through
'cause i know there's no life after you

you and i, right or wrong, there's not other one
after this time i spent alone
it's hard to believe that a man with sight could be so blind
thinkin' 'bout the better times, must've been outta my mind
so i'm runnin' back to tell you

all that i'm after is a life full of laughter
as long as i'm laughin' with you
i'm thinkin' 'bout all that still matters is love ever after
after the life we've been through, yeah
know there's not life after you

The Other Side of the Door

by Taylor Swift- more than once has this song applied to my life, the last two stanzas are my favorite

in the heat of the fight, i walked away
ignoring words that you were saying, trying to make me stay
i said this time i've had enough
and you've called a hundred times, but i'm not picking up

'cause i'm so mad, i might tell you that it's over
but if you look a little closer

(chorus)
i said leave, but all i really want is you
to stand outside my window throwing pebbles
screaming "i'm in love with you"
wait there in the pouring rain, coming back for more
and don't you leave, 'cause i know
all i need is on the other side of the door

me and my stupid pride, sitting here alone
going through the photgraphs, staring at the phone
i keep going back over things we both said
and i remember the slamming door and all the things that i misread

so baby, if you know everything, tell me why you couldn't see
when i left i wanted you to chase after me

(chorus)

and i scream out the window i can't even look at you, i don't need you
but i do, i do, i do
i'll say there's nothing you can say to make this right again
i mean it, i mean it, what i mean is

(chorus)

with your face and the beautiful eyes
and the conversation with the little white lies
and the faded picture of a beautiful night
you carried me from your car up the stairs

and i broke down crying, was she worth this mess
after everything and that little black dress
after everything, i must confess
i need you

Some Hearts

by, Carrie Underwood- I am just hoping for my lucky moment like this to come along...

i've never been the kind that you'd call lucky
always stumbling around in circles
but i must have stumbled into something
look at me
am i really alone with you

i wake up feeling like my life's worth living
can't recall when i last felt that way
guess it must be all this love you're giving
never knew never knew it could be like this
but i guess

some hearts
they just get all the right breaks
some hearts have the stars on their side
some hearts
they just have it so easy
some hearts just get lucky sometimes

now who'd have thought someone like you could love me
you're the last thing my heart expected who'd have thought i'd ever find somebody
someone who someone who makes me feel like this
well i guess

some hearts
they just get all the right breaks
some hearts have the stars on their side, yes
some hearts
they just have it so easy
some hearts just get lucky sometimes

Dancing With Tears In My Eyes, by Kesha

here we go
welcome to my funeral
without you i dont even have a pulse
all alone it's dark and cold
with every move i die

i have destroyed our life
it gone, payback is sick
it all my fault

i'm dancing
with tears in my eyes
just fighting
to get through the night
i'm losing it

with every move i die
so when did i
become such a hyprocrite
double life
lies that you caught me in
trust me i'm paying for it
with every move i die

this is it and now
you're really gone this time
never once thought
i'd be in pieces left behind

i'm dancing
with tears in my eyes
just fighting
to get through the night
i'm losing it

At The Beginning

This song just seemed so fitting to start out my blog with. It is one of my all-time favorite songs, featured in the movie Anastasia, performed by Donna Lewis and Richard Marx.

We were strangers starting out on a journey
Never dreaming what we'd have to go through
Now here we are and I'm suddenly standing
At the beginning with you

No one told me I was going to find you
Unexpected what you did to my heart
When I lost hope you were there to remind me
This is the start

(chorus)
And life is a road and I want to keep going
Love is a river and I want to keep flowing
Life is a road now and forever
A wonderful journey

I'll be there when the world stops turning
I'll be there whent he storm is through
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you

We were strangers on a crazy adventure
Never dreaming how our dreams would come true
Now here we stand unafraid of the future
At the beginning with you

(chorus)

I knew there was somebody somewhere
Like me alone in the dark
I know tha my dream will live on
I've been waiting so long
Nothing's gonna tear us apart

(chorus)

In the end I wanna be standing at the beginning with you
