Untitled ~For Her~
Sometimes people leave your life without being fully aware of the impact they had on you or without a simple way to explain who or what they were to you. This is for one such person. I've put it together bit by bit over years and while it'll never be perfect, this is as good as I can get it. It's in rough chronological order; some songs cover different lengths of time and some cover the same time period simultaneously.
Playlist on YouTube and songs with some lyrics below the cut.
Linkin Park – Numb
Can't you see that you're smothering me,
Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control?
'Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you.
Rise Against – My Life Inside Your Heart
And I know you hurt
But I can help you if you can...
Take my hand
And we'll live inside the dreams we left behind
Take my hand
As we move from this place to a better life
The Spill Canvas – Lust a Prima Vista
Crack open a bottle of red
Let's toast to this here bed
Offer up your hand
My one night, two month, three year stand
Halestorm – Mz. Hyde
I’m the spider crawling down your spine,
Underneath your skin.
I will gently violate your mind,
Before I tuck you in.
Put on the blindfold
There’s no way to be sure,
Which girl you’ll get to know!
AFI – This Time Imperfect
I'd show a smile, but I’m too weak,
I'd share with you could I only speak,
Just how much this, hurts me.
Just how much this, hurts me.
Just how much you...
Kelly Clarkson - My Life Would Suck Without You
Maybe I was stupid for telling you goodbye
Maybe I was wrong for trying to pick a fight
I know that I've got issues
But you're pretty messed up too
Either way I found out
I'm nothing without you
Bad Religion – Infected
Now here I go,
Hope I don't break down,
I won't take anything, I don't need anything,
Don't want to exist, I can't persist,
Please stop before I do it again,
Just talk about nothing, let's talk about nothing,
Let's talk about no one, please talk about no one, someone, anyone
You and me have a disease,
You affect me, you infect me,
I'm afflicted, you're addicted,
You and me, you and me
Within Temptation – Ice Queen
Whenever she is raging
She takes all life away
Haven't you seen?
Haven't you seen?
The ruins of our world
Nickelback – Do This Anymore
She says I'm only tellin' half of it
That's probably 'cause there's only half worth tellin'
And every time I try to laugh it off
That's when you turn around and wind up yellin'
When am I gonna learn? Why? Cause I'm tired of hating
When will it be your turn? Why? Cause I'm tired of waiting
Billy Talent – Diamond on a Landmine
I tried to quit but there's no use
Cause I'm addicted to her abuse
She's in control of everything
I'm just a puppet, she pulls my strings
Denying truth, I'll test my fate
And keep on playing this wicked game
Ayumi Hamasaki - Sunset ~Love is All~
(lyrics translated from Japanese)
Be closer to me
Let me trust you more
Am I really
In your eyes?
Be closer to me
I want you to let me trust you more
Am I depending on you too much?
Rihanna - S&M
I love the feeling
You bring to me
Oh, you turn me on
It's exactly what
I've been yearning for
Give it to me strong
Ayumi Hamasaki - Love ‘n’ Hate
(lyrics translated from Japanese)
I'm surprised myself
That this wound seems deeper
Than I thought
Just because I love you
It would be the best way for me to disappear
If I could hate you
I would rather be better off
Apocalyptica - Broken Pieces
And as you showed me your scars
I only held you closer
But as the light in you went dark I saw you turn over
I wanted always to be there for you and close to you
But I'm losing this
And I'm losing you
Maroon 5 – She Will Be Loved
I know where you hide
Alone in your car
Know all of the things that make you who you are
I know that goodbye means nothing at all
Comes back and begs me to catch her every time she falls
Rise Against – Savior
That's when she said I don't hate you boy
I just want to save you while there's still something left to save
That's when I told her I love you girl
But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have
Linkin Park – Breaking the Habit
I don't know how I got this way
I know it's not alright.
So I'm breaking the habit,
I'm breaking the habit
Tonight
Jimmy Wayne – Stay Gone
I still love you and I will forever
We can't hide the truth
We know each other better
When we try to make it work
We both end up hurt
It ain't supposed to be that way
