Saints – Echos

I’m sorry but your story isn’t adding up
Think your religion is a lie to keep my mouth shut
So I won’t testify the crimes you’re keeping score of
Why don’t you throw me to the wolves? I thought you were one

You were standing there like an angry god
Counting out my sins just to cross them off
Saying that my tongue was too loud to trust
And that my blood couldn’t keep you

My dear, you’re not so innocent
You’re fooling Heaven’s gates
So you won’t have to change
You’re no saint, you’re no savior

Your revelations don’t look nothing like the pictures
You read between the lines and don’t stick to the scriptures
You only follow rules if others follow with you
That doesn’t sound so holy only playing victim

You were standing there like an angry god
Counting out my sins just to cross them off
Saying that my tongue was too loud to trust
And that my blood couldn’t keep you

My dear, you’re not so innocent
You’re fooling Heaven’s gates
So you won’t have to change
You’re no saint, you’re no savior

So keep your judgment for someone else, I’ve had enough
And keep your judgment for someone else, I’ve had enough
So keep your judgment for someone else, I’ve had enough
And keep your judgment for someone else, I’ve had enough

My dear, you’re not so innocent
You’re fooling Heaven’s gates
So you won’t have to change
You’re no saint, you’re no savior

Girl in the Mirror – Bebe Rexha

I’m tired of my thoughts
They weigh me down, feels like I’m drowning
I’m tired of my flaws, they fill me with anxiety and I
Honestly, I’m done with hating pictures of myself
And tryna be like everybody else

I wanna be like, look like
The girl in the mirror
Wanna act like, dance like
No one’s watching her
I could try to be just like you
But I wanna be like me
The girl in the mirror

The girl in the mirror
The girl in the mirror

I’m sick of the likes
And followers, everyone’s countin’
I’m sick of the lies
Smilin’ but I’m crying inside
Honestly, I’m done with hating pictures of myself
And tryna be like everybody else

I wanna be like, look like
The girl in the mirror
Wanna act like, dance like
No one’s watching her
I could try to be just like you
But I wanna be like me
The girl in the mirror

The girl in the mirror

Wanna wake up, no make up
And still think I’m beautiful
Wanna smile, I’m eating
And finally be comfortable with me
Finally be comfortable with me, oh

I wanna be like, look like
The girl in the mirror
Wanna act like, dance like
No one’s watching her
I could try to be just like you
But I wanna be like me
The girl in the mirror
The girl in the mirror
The girl in the mirror
Girl in the mirror
The girl in the mirror

Lily – Alan Walker, K-391 & Emelie Hollow

Lily was a little girl
Afraid of the big, wide world
She grew up within her castle walls
Now and then she tried to run
And then on the night with the setting sun
She went in the woods away
So afraid, all alone

They warned her, don’t go there
There’s creatures who are hiding in the dark
Then something came creeping
It told her, don’t you worry just

Follow everywhere I go
Top over the mountains or valley low
Give you everything you’ve been dreaming of
Just let me in, ooh
Everything you want in gold, I’ll be the magic story you’ve been told
And you’ll be safe under my control
Just let me in, ooh
Just let me in, ooh

She knew she was hypnotized
And walking on cold thin ice
Then it broke, and she awoke again
Then she ran faster than
Start screaming, “Is there someone out there?”
Please help me
Come get me
Behind her, she can hear it say

Follow everywhere I go
Top over the mountains or valley low
Give you everything you’ve been dreaming of
Just let me in, ooh
Everything you want in gold, I’ll be the magic story you’ve been told
And you’ll be safe under my control
Just let me in, ooh
Just let me in, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Everything you want in gold, I’ll be the magic story you’ve been told
And you’ll be safe under my control
Just let me in, ooh

Follow everywhere I go
Top over the mountains or valley low
Give you everything you’ve been dreaming of
Just let me in, ooh
Then she ran faster than
Start screaming, “Is there someone out there?”
Please help me
Just let me in, ooh

Older – Sasha Sloan

I used to shut my door while my mother screamed in the kitchen
I’d turn the music up, get high and try not to listen
To every little fight, ’cause neither one was right

I swore I’d never be like them
But I was just a kid back then

The older I get the more that I see
My parents aren’t heroes, they’re just like me
And loving is hard, it don’t always work
You just try your best not to get hurt
I used to be mad but now I know
Sometimes it’s better to let someone go
It just hadn’t hit me yet
The older I get

I used to wonder why, why they could never be happy
I used to close my eyes and pray for a whole ‘nother family
Where everything was fine, one that felt like mine

I swore I’d never be like them
But I was just a kid back then

The older I get the more that I see
My parents aren’t heroes, they’re just like me
And loving is hard, it don’t always work
You just try your best not to get hurt
I used to be mad but now I know
Sometimes it’s better to let someone go
It just hadn’t hit me yet
The older I get

The older I get the more that I see
My parents aren’t heroes, they’re just like me
And loving is hard, it don’t always work
You just try your best not to get hurt
I used to be mad but now I know
Sometimes it’s better to let someone go
It just hadn’t hit me yet
The older I get

Dynasty -MILA

Some days it’s hard to see
If I was a fool, or you, a thief
Made it through the maze to find my one in a million
Now you’re just a page torn from the story I’m living

And all I gave you is gone
Tumbled like it was stone
Thought we built a dynasty that heaven couldn’t shake
Thought we built a dynasty like nothing ever made
Thought we built a dynasty forever couldn’t break up

The scar I can’t reverse
When the more it heals the worse it hurts
Gave you every piece of me, no wonder it’s missing
Don’t know how to be so close to someone so distant

And all I gave you is gone
Tumbled like it was stone
Thought we built a dynasty that heaven couldn’t shake
Thought we built a dynasty like nothing ever made
Thought we built a dynasty forever couldn’t break up

It all fell down, it all fell down,
It all fell, it all fell down, it all fell down
It all fell, it all fell down, it all fell down, it
It all fell down, it all fell down, it all fell down

And all I gave you is gone
Tumbled like it was stone
Thought we built a dynasty that heaven couldn’t shake
Thought we built a dynasty like nothing ever made
Thought we built a dynasty forever couldn’t break up

It all fell, it all fell down, it all fell down, it
It all fell down, it all fell down, it all fell down
It all fell, it all fell down, it all fell down (and all I gave you is gone)
Thought we built a dynasty forever couldn’t break up

Devils Don’t Fly – Natalia Kills

I heard the angels call again
I threw myself a party
Chardonnay and oxy
I stopped the screams inside my head
I remember when you had me
Floating high like Sid and Nancy

They say it’s not the answer but I can’t carry on
‘Cause I got nowhere, no one, without you boy I’m done
And when I’m gone, remember you’re the one
And just because I fight don’t mean that I never learned how to love

You know devils don’t fly (fly, fly)
So don’t expect me not to fall
Devils don’t fly (fly, fly)
But God we almost had it all
But I got chains and you got wings
You know that life ain’t fair sometimes
Devils don’t fly (fly, fly)
But I try

What’s a girl to do when she’s not strong
When everyone that holds my hand
Gets cut from all the thorns
I used to put my ear against the wall
To hear the screams, to hear the fall
More reasons to escape it all

And it’s not the answer but I can’t carry on
I give my best smile, my last dime
But I’m always getting wrong
It’s not ’cause I’m young or from a broken home
Maybe I just fight ’cause I don’t know where I belong

You know devils don’t fly (fly, fly)
So don’t expect me not to fall
Devils don’t fly (fly, fly)
But God we almost had it all
But I got chains and you got wings
You know that life ain’t fair sometimes
Devils don’t fly (fly, fly)
But I try

Angels were never meant to fall
And you were the loveliest of all
If I thought God could fix it
I’d pray for your forgiveness
But I’ve been cast down, thrown out
When I crossed to the other side

No devils don’t fly!

You know devils don’t fly (fly, fly)
So don’t expect me not to fall
Devils don’t fly (fly, fly)
But God we almost had it all
But I got chains and you got wings
You know that life ain’t fair sometimes
Devils don’t fly (fly, fly)
But I try

But I try
