Tessellate – Alt J

Bite chunks out of me
You’re a shark and I’m swimming
My heart still thumps as I bleed
And all your friends come sniffing

Triangles are my favorite shape
Three points where two lines meet
Toe to toe, back to back, let’s go, my love; it’s very late
‘Til morning comes, let’s tessellate

Go alone my flower
And keep my whole lovely you
Wild green stones alone my lover
And keep us on my heart

Three guns and one goes off
One’s empty, one’s not quick enough
One burn, one red, one grin
Search the graves while the camera spins

Chunks of you will sink down to seals
Blubber rich in mourning, they’ll nosh you up
Yes, they’ll nosh the love away but it’s fair to say
You will still haunt me

Triangles are my favorite shape
Three points where two lines meet
Toe to toe, back to back, let’s go my love; it’s very late
‘Til morning comes, let’s tessellate

Chris Lane – Fix

Hey girl, you know what you’ve been missing?
Me, me, yeah
Hey girl, whoever you’ve been kissing
It ain’t me, me
I got that love medicinal
I’ll make you feel invincible
I’m more than recreational
I’m what you need

I’ll be your smooth ride, that late night, your Walter White high
I’ll be your first time, that’s so right
Get you falling in love at the end of the night
With that good-ish, that long trip, that sugar on your lips
That favorite habit, gotta have it, you can’t quit
I got your fix

I’ll be the high that never lets you down (I got your fix)
The one you crave when no one is around (I got your fix)
I’ll pick you up and never let you go (I got your fix)
Never let you go, hey hey

Hey girl, he don’t get you there never
So leave, oh just leave
Listen, baby baby baby baby girl
Let me make it feel better
Please, please, please, please
I’m what you need

I’ll be your smooth ride, that late night, your Walter White high
I’ll be your first time, that’s so right
Get you falling in love at the end of the night
With that good-ish, that long trip, that sugar on your lips
That favorite habit, gotta have it, you can’t quit
I got your fix

I’ll be the high that never lets you down (that never lets you down)
The one you crave when no one is around (when no one is around)
I’ll pick you up and never let you go (I got your fix)
Never let you go

Yeah, come on baby, yeah, oh oh oh
I’ll be the high that never lets you down
The one you crave when no one is around

I’ll be your smooth ride, that late night, your Walter White high
I’ll be your first time, that’s so right
Get you falling in love at the end of the night
With that good-ish, that long trip, that sugar on your lips
That favorite habit, gotta have it, you can’t quit
I got your fix

I’ll be the high that never lets you down (that never lets you down)
The one you crave when no one is around (when no one is around)
I’ll pick you up and never let you go (I got your fix)
Never let you go

 

Hold On Forever – Rob Thomas

 

Another night and here we are again
All our faults laid out ahead
Let it out, then let it right back in
All those voices in your head

And we both know everything, but we can’t learn to leave
So I’ll tell you what you need

First thing: we make you feel better
Next stop: we pull it all together
I’ll keep you warm like a sweater
Take my hand, hold on forever
Just fall apart if you need to
I’m here and I won’t leave you now
Don’t look down
Hold on forever

Lay down all your troubles end to end
They could reach up to the stars
So many roads, you don’t know where you’ve been
But you still know who you are

And if I seem preoccupied, I’m wondering what to do
So here’s my recipe for you

First thing: we make you feel better
Next stop: we pull it all together
I’ll keep you warm like a sweater
Take my hand, hold on forever
Just fall apart if you need to
I’m here and I won’t leave you now
Don’t look down
Hold on forever

And we both know everything, but we can’t learn to leave
So I’ll tell you what you need

First thing: we make you feel better
Next stop: we pull it all together
I’ll keep you warm like a sweater
Take my hand, hold on forever
Just fall apart if you need to
I’m here and I won’t leave you now
Don’t look down
Hold on forever
Just take my hand; hold on forever
Hold on forever
Just take my hand; hold on forever

 

Used To Love You – Gwen Stefani

 

Yeah, boy
Thought this would happen
I let it sink in, you’re gone
I don’t know, know what I’m feeling
I must be dreaming, you’re gone

Suitcase, band-aids
Pulling back out the driveway
You go, I’ll stay
You can keep all the memories
I thought I was the best thing that ever happened to you
I thought you loved me the most

I don’t know why I cry
But I think it’s cause I remembered for the first time
Since I hated you
That I used to love you
I don’t know why I cry
But I think it’s cause I remembered for the first time
Since I hated you
That I used to love you

Oh, oh, oh, oh
I used to love you
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I used to love you

Are you gone?
There were no boundaries
What, you just pushed me too far
I guess nobody taught you
Nobody taught you how to love

Suitcase, band-aids
Pulling back out the driveway
You go, I’ll stay
You can keep all the memories
I thought I was the best thing that ever happened to you
I thought you loved me the most

I don’t know why I cry
But I think it’s cause I remembered for the first time
Since I hated you
That I used to love you
I don’t know why I cry
But I think it’s cause I remembered for the first time
Since I hated you
That I used to love you

Oh, oh, oh, oh
I used to love you
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I used to love you

You know I was the best thing that ever happened to you
I thought you loved me more, oh
You know I was the best thing that ever happened to you
Now look at what you lost, oh

I don’t know why I cry
But I think it’s cause I remembered for the first time
Since I hated you
That I used to love you
I don’t know why I cry
But I think it’s cause I remembered for the first time
Since I hated you
That I used to love you

Oh, oh, oh, oh
I used to love you
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I used to love you

I don’t know why I cry
I don’t, I don’t, I don’t
I don’t know why I used to love you
I don’t, I don’t, I don’t
I don’t know why I cry
I don’t, I don’t, I don’t
I don’t know why I used to love you
I don’t, I don’t, I don’t

She Used To Be Mine – Sara Bareilles

 

It’s not simple to say
That most days I don’t recognize me
That these shoes and this apron
That place and it’s patrons
Have taken more than I gave them
It’s not easy to know
I’m not anything like I used to be
Although it’s true
I was never attention’s sweet center
I still remember that girl

She’s imperfect but she tries
She is good but she lies
She is hard on herself
She is broken and won’t ask for help
She is messy but she’s kind
She is lonely most of the time
She is all of this mixed up
And baked in a beautiful pie
She is gone but she used to be mine

It’s not what I asked for
Sometimes life just slips in through a back door
And carves out a person
And makes you believe it’s all true
And now I’ve got you
And you’re not what I asked for
If I’m honest I know I would give it all back
For a chance to start over
And rewrite an ending or two
For the girl that I knew

Who’ll be reckless just enough
Who’ll get hurt but
Who learns how to toughen up when she’s bruised
And gets used by a man who can’t love
And then she’ll get stuck and be scared
Of the life that’s inside her
Growing stronger each day
‘Til it finally reminds her
To fight just a little
To bring back the fire in her eyes
That’s been gone but it used to be mine

Used to be mine
She is messy but she’s kind
She is lonely most of the time
She is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie
She is gone but she used to be mine
