All I Wanted (Paramore)

It Has Gone Astray

They say it’s better to have Loved and Lost

Than never to have loved at all.

But what if they’re wrong?

If you’ve never experienced Love

Then you don’t know what it is that

You’re missing.

[ Ignorance is bliss-right? ]

Once you have felt Love’s presence

And it gets taken away;

That is when you experience true heartache.

The memories of what it used to be

Only fuel the fire of your loneliness.

It is a double edged sword.

You feel lucky to have felt deep, true Love-

Yet you were teased by having it ripped away so quickly.


One cannot live off of memories alone.

The Blower's Daughter (Damien Rice)

Can't take my mind off of you.
I never thought that I would be
That girl.
Silently shedding tears
In the middle of the bar..
Surrounded by smiling faces-
Seemingly happy people,
Two by two,
Sensually swaying to the music.

I stand with my back against the wall..
Sipping my drink and thinking
Of you.
