Writing songs is a skill not everyone masters, yet in pop music, we witness rare talents capable of single-handedly composing entire albums, shaping the songwriting process, and penning lyrics that stand the test of time.

 

 

For me personally, the lyrics "And then the cold came, the dark days when fear crept into my mind, you gave me all your love, and all I gave you was 'goodbye'" are timeless.

What would you say are some lyrics that continue to resonate with you even today?

go and tell your friends that I'm obsessive and crazy, that's fine, I'll tell mine you're gay 

You know... Tonight i'm feeling a Little.... Out of control. Is it me? You wanna get crazy? Cause I don't give a OWWWW

Heart's too used to being lonely
Stuck in muscle memory
No one really knows me
Is my independence
Coming back to bite me?
Do you really like me?
Or are we pretending?

I'm a performer
That's what I know how to do
But is it stopping
Me getting close to you?

I'm a performer
Got myself cornered
Put on my armor
Just like my mother and father
Multiple versions
Of the same person
All of them hurting
Don't think the performance is working

 

I change the thongs two times a day

Lyrics that are WHAT ? 

You can take off all my clothes and never see me naked

If you don't know my heart

You're never gonna break it

There's things I want to say to you but i'll just let you live

Like if you hold me without hurting me

You'll be the first who ever did

I'm so 3008, you're so 2000 and late

 

Top 2 and i ain't #2! 

It was rare, I was there

I remember it all too well

Wind in my hair, you were there,

You remember it all

 

 

 

I REMEMBER US TOGETHER
WITH A PROMISE OF FOREVER
WE CAN DO THIS, FIGHT THE PRESSURE
PLEASE REMEMBER DECEMBEEEER

Used to be bi, but now I'm just hetero

 

my ***** taste like pepsi cola

i want your whiskey mouth all over my blonde south

I found what I'd been looking for in myself found a life worth living for someone else never thought that I could be happy

 

Mind your B, mind your B, mind your B, mind your B
Mind your B, mind your B, mind your B, mind your B
Mind your B, mind your B, mind your B, mind your B
Mind your business-ness-ness

[Verse 1]
The drink you spilt all over me
"Lover's Spit" left on repeat
My mum and dad let me stay home
It drives you crazy, getting old

[Pre-Chorus]
We can talk it so good
We can make it so divine
We can talk it good
How you wish it would be all the time

 

[Chorus]
The drink you spilt all over me
"Lover's Spit" left on repeat
My mum and dad let me stay home
It drives you crazy, getting old
The drink you spilt all over me
"Lover's Spit" left on repeat
My mum and dad let me stay home
It drives you crazy, getting old

 

[Verse 2]
This dream isn't feeling sweet
We're reeling through the midnight streets
And I've never felt more alone
It feels so scary, getting old

 

[Pre-Chorus]
We can talk it so good
We can make it so divine
We can talk it good
How you wish it would be all the time

 

[Chorus]
This dream isn't feeling sweet
We're reeling through the midnight streets
And I've never felt more alone
It feels so scary, getting old
This dream isn't feeling sweet
We're reeling through the midnight streets
And I've never felt more alone
It feels so scary, getting old

 

[Bridge]
I want 'em back, I want 'em back
The minds we had, the minds we had
How all the thoughts, how all the thoughts
Moved 'round our heads, moved 'round our heads
I want 'em back, I want 'em back
The minds we had, the minds we had
It's not enough to feel the lack
I want 'em back, I want 'em back
I want 'em

 

[Refrain]
You're the only friend I need
(You're the only friend I need)
Sharing beds like little kids
(Sharing beds like little kids)
And laughing till our ribs get tough
(Laughing till our ribs get tough)
But that will never be enough
(But that will never be enough)
You're the only friend I need
(You're the only friend I need)
Sharing beds like little kids
(Sharing beds like little kids)
And laughing till our ribs get tough
(Laughing till our ribs get tough)
But that will never be enough
(But that will never be enough)

 

[Outro]
But that will never be enough
But that will never be enough
But that will never be enough
But that will never be enough

 

and many more other lyrics from her 

Whenever I'm about to do something dumb, I always think to myself of Madonna's lyrics in Human Nature: "express yourself, don't repress yourself" 

 

 

 

I know I should have farted

At least I'm being honest

There's things I wanna say to you
But I'll just let you live
Like if you hold me without hurting me
You'll be the first who ever did
There's things I wanna talk about
But better not to give
But if you hold me without hurting me
You'll be the first who ever did

I know I should have farted

At least I'm being honest

I've been holding my breath
I've been counting to ten
Over something you said
I've been holding back tears
While you're throwing back beers
I'm alone in bed

 

You know I, I'm afraid of change
Guess that's why we stay the same

 

So tell me to leave
I'll pack my bags, get on the road
Find someone that loves you
Better than I do, darling, I know
'Cause you remind me every day
I'm not enough, but I still stay

 

Feels like a lifetime
Just trying to get by while we're dying inside
I've done a lot of things wrong
Loving you being one
But I can't move on

 

You know I, I'm afraid of change
Guess that's why we stay the same

 

So tell me to leave
I'll pack my bags, get on the road
Find someone that loves you
Better than I do, darling, I know
'Cause you remind me every day
I'm not enough, but I still stay
If you want me to leave
Then tell me to leave and baby I'll go

 

You remind me every day
I'm not enough, but I still stay

 

There's gotta be more to life

than chasing down every temporary high

to satisfy me

 

LEMME STAY… IN MY BAG… CUZ I LIKE… WHEN YOU MAD… ISSA MOOD… ISSA VIBE… ISSA LOOK… ISSA MATCH

 

 

'Cause in my head, in my head I do everything right

When you call, I'll forgive and not fight

All the moments I play in the dark

Wild, fluorescent, come home to my heart

UGH
