And It's Still Alright

 AND IT'S STILL ALRIGHT - NATHANIEL RATELIFF & THE NIGHT SWEATS 

It ain't alright, the hardness of my head

Now, close your eyes and spin around

Say, hard times you could find, it

Ain't the way that you want

But it's still alright

Late at night, do you lay around wondering?

Counting all the lines, ain't so funny now

Say, times are hard, you get this far, but it

Ain't the way that you want

I'll be damned if this old man don't

Start to count on his losses

But it's still alright

They say you learn a lot out there

How to scorch and burn

Only have to bury your friends

Then you'll find it gets worse

Standing out on the ledge

With no way to get down

You start praying for wings to grow

Oh, baby, just let go

I ain't alright, you keep spinning out ahead

It was cold outside when I hit the ground

Said, I could sleep here, forget all the fear

It will take time to grow

Maybe I don't know

Hey, tonight if you think about it

Remembering all the times that you pointed out

Say, the glass is clear but all this fear

Starts a-leaving a mark

Your idle hands are all that stands

From your time in the dark

But it's still alright

You Are the Reason - Callum Scott

  There goes my heart beating 'Cause you are the reason I'm losing my sleep Please come back now And there goes my mind racing And you are the reason That I'm still breathing I'm hopeless now I'd climb every mountain And swim every ocean Just to be with you And fix what I've broken Oh, 'cause I need you to see That you are the reason There goes my hands shaking And you are the reason My heart keeps bleeding I need you now And if I could turn back the clock I'd make sure the light defeated the dark I'd spend every hour, of every day Keeping you safe And I'd climb every mountain And swim every ocean Just to be with you And fix what I've broken Oh, 'cause I need you to see That you are the reason I don't wanna fight no more I don't wanna hide no more I don't wanna cry no more Come back I need you to hold me (you are the reason) Be a little closer now Just a little closer now Come a little closer I need you to hold me tonight I...

Fire

 FIRE - SARA BAREILLES Door clicks while his wheels start spinning on the pavement And I go fill the space up where he has been staying Won't lose much sleep, he never went that deep Love you, oh, you sweet thing, no, I never said that Let me hold your ego while you get your bag packed Don't take this the wrong way But when the spade shows up, I call it by its first name We were, we were never gonna catch fire We'd've burned up in the flames Long before they ever rose up higher Someday I, I won't have to feel the cold But I do now, so I'll know What it feels like when I feel fire, fire Mmm, fire Fire Talk, touch, kiss, bend, this one's just like all the others And I know all too well that I won't beat the waters I held my breath to swim The shallow shores aren't safe enough to dive in We were, we were never gonna catch fire We'd've burned up in the flames Long before they ever rose up higher Someday I, I won't have to feel the cold But I ...
