"I need you more than the air I breathe
I need you more than anything
I need you desperately

Waiting all the time
Singing in my mind
I want you desperately"
-- Dave Hamilton, "Desperately"

Sometimes we let affection go unspoken. Sometimes we let our love go unexpressed. Sometimes we can't find words to tell our feelings, especially towards those we love the best.

Don't tell me not to walk away when you're the one who taught me how.

I'm never waking up again
so I'll never have to find out what you did.
each day it's harder to pretend
that your eyes aren't lying as much as your mouth did.

It's like she's suddenly choking on her own breath,
clawing her way through the lyrics that once meant something.
She stops to look at him with broken eyes,
and whispers, "When did the music stop for us?"
He looks at her, puts his head down and answers,
"When you stopped dancing."

I'll leave your lips soaked with remnants of a love held together by deception.

The reception's gotten fuzzy
The delicate balance has shifted
Put on your gloves and black pumps
Let's pretend the fog has lifted
Now you see me, now you don't
Now you say you love me
Pretty soon you won't
-- Mountain Goats, "Dilaudid"

There you are holding her hand and I'm lost trying to understand.

If it's not keeping you up at night, then what's the point?

At night I pray that soon your face will fade away.

And suddenly I become a part of your past.
I'm becoming the part that doesn't last.
I'm losing you, and it's effortless.
-- The Fray, "Over My Head"

And I'm finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving.
-- The Postal Service, "The District Sleeps Alone Tonight"

What hurts more than losing you is knowing you're not fighting to keep me.

Too long, too late
Who was I to make you wait?
-- Nickelback, "Far Away"

There wasn't anything wonderfully amazing about him
but there was something that she just couldn't resist.

If you were 'round I'd show you wounds and scars
The proof that you were here
And then I'd make you cry like I did
If my point still was not clear
If you were here I'd scream and
Maybe trash the room if I had time
And then one single word would break your spirit
Just the same as you broke mine
-- Ben Lee, "Deep Talk in the Shallow End"

I don't know if I'm getting better or just getting used to the pain.

I'm sitting under falling stars.
Do you miss me where you are?
I'm making plans to be with you.
But have they come unglued?
What am I do to without you?

I wait for the days where I forget who you are.
I wait for the days when I won't remember
why I needed you so bad.

Stay close enough to have fun yet far enough not to get hurt. When you start to fall again just remember the bruise on your heart was put there by him.

I faintly remember breathing on your bedroom floor
Where I laid and told you but you swore you loved me more.

I bite my tongue every time you come around because blood in my mouth beats tears on the ground.

All I want is one more chance to show you,
you were right for me.

Darling, I can't replace you.
I have to keep on moving
or I get lost in all I'm losing.

I'll kill to remember.
You'll drink to forget.

Cause I am barely breathing
And I can't find the air
I don't know who I'm kidding
Imagining you care.

Here she is again on the phone
Just like me...hates to be alone

I'm right back where I've really always been
I got over you just long enough to let my heartache mend
then today I started loving you again

"I've been waiting all my life to finally find you just so I can push you away."
-- Ashlee Simpson

Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon.

We can say we tried
To take comfort in knowing
That if we both die alone tomorrow,
It's just the way that the stars aligned.

I know I made a lot of stupid mistakes in my life but the biggest one yet was letting myself believe that the guy who hurt me the most, wouldn't do it again.

Let's go back to the beginning
when our love was something new.
Back when romance was important,
not just another thing to do.

It's not as easy as willing it all to be right
Gotta be more than hoping it's right
I wanna hear you laugh like you really mean it
Collapse into me, tired with joy.
-- "Hands Open"

Maybe the reason we hate each other so much is because we can't face the fact that we're still in love.

He was my escape and sometimes that can feel an awful lot like love.

I Love You:
The three most overused, misunderstood, and misused words in the English language.

I wish he meant it when he kissed me 'cause then I could look back and see someone who loved me, but I can only go back and see someone who used me.

This time, This place
Misused, Mistakes
Too long, Too late
Who was I to make you wait
Just one chance
Just one breath
Just in case there's just one left
-- Nickelback, "Far Away"

On my knees, I'll ask
Last chance for one last dance
'Cause with you, I'd withstand
All of Hell to hold your hand
I'd give it all
I'd give for us
Give anything, but I won't give up
-- Nickelback, "Fay Away"

This is the book I never read
These are the words I never said
This is the path I'll never tread
These are the dreams I'll dream instead
This is the joy that's seldom spread
These are the tears...
The tears we shed
This is the fear
This is the dread
These are the contents of my head
And these are the years that we have spent
And this is what they represent
-- Annie Lennox, "Why"

One night, the moon asked me,
"If he makes you cry, why don't you leave him?"
I looked at the moon and said,
"Moon, would you ever leave your sky?"

We don't talk anymore, and I don't know why. It's like you gave me
wings and then said it's illegal to fly.

Why ruin a perfectly good flower, when you know that he loves you not?

My heart is yours to fill or burst, break or bury, or to wear as jewelry.
Whichever you prefer.
-- Dashboard Confessional

Well I tried the crying thing, that only made it hurt.
That silly drinkin thing .. only made it worse.

You're always waiting for someone to put you together.
You're always waiting for someone to push you away.
There's always another wound to discover,
And there's always more you'd wish he'd say.

She's the kind of girl who you forget about as soon as you meet. She is the b-side to your hit-single; the crust on the bread. Every face you've ever forgotten. She is the verse to that song on the radio. The one you have to hum along with because you can't remember the words.
Yeah, she's that forgettable.

S.u.m.m.e.r..D.a.y.s.
it could give me time to get over you
or it could give me time to realize why I can't.

If I could I would do all of this again
Travel back in time with you to where this all began
We could hide inside ourselves and leave the world behind
And make believe there's something left to find.

I used to be lovestruck
now I'm just fucked up.

All I have is a memory of what was;
so let's pretend it never mattered to us.

This silence strips me bare,
and your body pins me down
I've never been so scared to breathe
afraid to make a sound

I wish I was a white crayon so no one would use me.

If I had just one tear running down your cheek
maybe I could cope, maybe I'd get some sleep
if I had just one moment at your expense,
maybe all my misery would be well spent.

I had this sadness, creeping like vines over me. I didn't get what I wanted so I just took what wanted me.

I'm not ready to make nice
I'm not ready to back down
I'm still mad as hell
and I don't have time to go round and round
It's too late to make it right
I probably wouldn't if I could
cause I'm mad as hell
can't bring myself to do what it is you think I should...
-- Dixie Chicks, "I'm Not Ready to Make Nice"

Remember when we said goodbye?
I wiped my tears. You didn't cry.

I've got dreams and aspirations
and I'm pretty good at conversations
I've got a heart I want to give
but I need someone to share it with.

I wish I was eight again because all he
had to do was tag me and I was it.

I always fall for that one guy
who is so out of reach but still
close enough to make it hurt.

Here, here I am again
And I'm staring at these same four walls
Alone again
And now, all the colors blend
And I'm growing numb and I've become
This empty page
-Ashlee Simpson, "Love Makes The World Go Round"

Ain't got nothin' but too much to lose
Lost in the rush don't know what to do
-Atmosphere, "Shoulda Known"

And all the things that break you,
Are all the things that make you strong,
You can't change the past,
Cause it's gone,
And you just gotta move on,
Because it's all,
Lessons learned.
-Carrie Underwood, "Lessons Learned"

I guess it's gonna have to hurt,
I guess I'm gonna have to cry,
And let go of some things I've loved,
To get to the other side,
I guess it's gonna break me down,
Like falling when you try to fly,
It's sad, but sometimes moving on with the rest of your life,
Starts with goodbye.
-Carrie Underwood, "Starts With Goodbye"

You can hold any girl that you like
Fall in love when it's easy at night
But you wake up wondering why
She ain't ever something better
When you're lost and you've run out of road
Find what I already know
In the end close is all there is
But you won't find this
No, you won't find this
-Carrie Underwood, "You Won't Find This"

There's once in a lifetime
And there's once in a while
And the difference between the two
Is about a million miles
Oh, you might get lucky
While the moon is looking on
But in the truth of the morning
The stars will be long gone
-Carrie Underwood, "You Won't Find This"

Tell me all that you've thrown away
Find out games you don't wanna play
-The All American-Rejects, "Dirty Little Secret"

Sick with shame.
Must be exhausting to lose your own game.
Selfishly hated,
No wonder you're jaded.
You can't play the victim this time

Don't cry to me.
If you loved me,
You would be here with me.
You want me,
Come find me.
Make up your mind.
-Evanescence, "Call Me When You're Sober"

All my time is froze in motion
Can't I stay an hour or two or more?
Don't let me let you go
-Eve 6, "Here's to the Night"

I would swallow my doubt,
turn it inside out,
find nothing but faith in nothing.
Want to put my tender heart in a blender,
watch it spin 'round into a beautiful oblivion.
Rendezvous, then I'm through with you.
-Eve 6, "Inside Out"

Why do all good girls like the bad boys?
Like a moth to a flame, I guess I'm back here again.
Tell me why the dark side just captures my eye,
I know that you're a villain but I can't stop this feeling.
-Jadyn Maria, "Good Girls Like Bad Boys"

'Cause nobody wants to be the last one there
'Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares
Someone to love with my life in their hands
There's gotta be somebody for me like that
'Cause nobody wants to do it on their own
And everyone wants to know they're not alone
There's somebody else that feels the same somewhere
There's gotta be somebody for me out there
-Nickelback, "Gotta be Somebody"

House: They were ready to die... for guilt, not love.
Taub: You can't feel that much guilt without love.

In the night I hear 'em talk, the coldest story ever told
Somewhere far along this road he lost his soul
How could you be so heartless?
-Kanye West, "Heartless"

I was true as the sky is blue
I couldn't soon say the same for you
So now I find denial in my eyes
I'm mesmerized by the picture that's in my mind
Cause I've seen your act
And I know all the facts
I'm still in love with who I wish you were
-Kate Voegele, "Wish You Were Here"

In every loss, in every lie, in every truth that you'd deny
And each regret and each goodbye was a mistake too great to hide

Over the line can't define what I'm after
-OAR, "Shattered"

How did we get here?
-Paramore, "Decode"

How can I decide what's right
When you're clouding up my mind?
-Paramore, "Decode"

I know that this will break me
I know that this might make me cry
You gotta say what’s on your mind, on your mind
I know that this will hurt me
and break my heart and soul inside
I don’t wanna live this lie
I want the truth from you
Give me the truth, even if it hurts me
-Good Charlotte, "The Truth"

You can tell me all your thoughts, about the stars that fill polluted skies
And show me where you run to, when no one's left to take your side
But don't tell me where the road ends, cause I just don't wanna know, No I don't wanna know
-Thriving Ivory, "Angels on the Moon"

Seven days since I've seen your face
Seven nights I have laid to waste
I'm burning out now
I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired
I know we're hanging at the end of the rope
We've flown too high
Maybe swung too low
-White Tie Affair, "Candle"

My weakness is that I care too much
And our scars remind us that the past is real
I tear my heart open just to feel
-Papa Roach, "Scars"

Against my own advice
I saw you going down
But you never realized
That you're drowning in the water
So I offered you my hand
Compassions in my nature
Tonight is our last stand

At night I pray that soon your face will fade away.

I can't take it
What am I waiting for?
My heart's still breaking

And I can't fake it
The way I could before

Don't know what to do, I'm stuck on you

Everybody's been warned by somebody before

It's a game and we're all just victims of love

I hope that you really learnt a lesson
And realize that I was a blessin'

I've learned to love abuse
Please show me what I'm looking for
