I love music and I listen to all kinds of music. Sometimes, songs will stick with me on repeat and certain lyrics produce a vision in my mind and this is a collection of these lyric scenes.

JUICE WRLD – LUCID DREAMS
…//
Easier said than done
I thought you were the one
Listening to my heart instead of my head
You found another one, but
I am the better one
I won’t let you forget me
You left me falling and landing inside my grave
I know that you want me dead
I take prescriptions to make me feel a-okay
I know it’s all in my head
I have these lucid dreams where I can’t move a thing
Thinking of you in my bed
You were my everything
Thoughts of a wedding ring
Now I’m just better off dead
I’ll do it over again
I didn’t want it to end
I watch it blow in the wind
I should’ve listened to my friends
Did this shit in the past
But I want it to last …//
08 AUG 2020 ALICIA KEYS – GIRL ON FIRE
She’s just a girl and she’s on fire
Hotter than a fantasy, lonely like a highway
She’s living in a world and it’s on fire
Feeling with catastrophe, but she knows she can fly away
Ohhhh oh oh oh oh
She got both feet on the ground
And she’s burning it down
Ohhhh oh oh oh oh
She got her head in the clouds
And she’s not backing down
This girl is on fire
This girl is on fire
She’s walking on fire
This girl is on fire
Looks like a girl, but she’s a flame …//

ROYAL & THE SERPENT FT. MARKY STYLE –
SALVADOR DALI
Hello my name is blue
Awfully nice to meet you
I’d like to start with my battered heart
Are you melancholy too?
I get so down sometimes
But damn I’m still alive
Hello I’m not so bad
Bet I could make you laugh
When you’re melancholy too
Are you?
If you like Salvador Dali
Burnt toast and coffee
Slow jammy R&B
I might be spinning your wheels
But damn you’ll be feeling me
You’ll see
Oh
We’ll see …//

JESSE MCCARTNEY – WASTED
The phone rings, already know who’s calling
But every time it’s after two
It ain’t you, but the champagne talking
Saying “Baby, when you coming through?”
You like to call me when you’re high
End of the party, I’m your guy
Thing is, I do this every night
And I don’t wanna come off impatient
But you only call when you’re…
You only call when you’re wasted
You only call when you’re wasted
You only call when you’re
You only call when you’re wasted
I wait for the day you tell me
You’ll see me in the afternoon
Don’t get me wrong
I love our late night evenings
But that ain’t all I want from you …//

JAKE HILL & JOSH A –
SUICIDAL THOUGHTS
I’m not suicidal, I don’t wanna fucking die
I just wanna be able to close my eyes and feel alright
But every day I feel like dying
Every day I feel like dying (dying)
Why do I even try?
Why do I even write lyrics about how I’m living the life when I’m battling pain and my demons at night
Trying to find a new outlet
The devil pouncin’
I hear him howlin’, my vision cloudin’
Man I tried to escape but there ain’t no way
Try to be strong when I deal with the pain
But I’m ditching the coffin, so my family has options
Gotta work till’ I’m dead
So that they get the best
Don’t wanna set up a bad example cause the kids looking up
Can’t leave in shambles can’t make them think clocking out’s ok
So fuck suicide I’m here to stay
Try to free my mind
I don’t know what’s right
Wasting all my time, tryna find the light
Try to free my mind
I don’t know what’s right
Wasting all my time, tryna find the light (Nah, man)
I’ll be out here runnin’, I’ll be runnin’ from myself now
Gunnin’ demons down find my way out of this hell now
I’ll be runnin’ now, I’ll be runnin’ from myself now
Gunnin’ demons down, find my way out of this hell now …//

MYLES CAMERON – CAGED BIRD
Take some time, try to cleanse you from my mind
It takes time, darling, time
Time teach a caged bird how to fly
It takes time, darling, time
In the starlight so blue remember evenings so yellow
I no longer dream of you, but your shirt’s still in my dresser
Been to the studio, I’ve been walking through the jungle
When the wind cries out for you, and it sound like synth and cello
Kinda feels like birds in cages
When you break the locks
I can leave from where you want me here, but I’d rather not
So I drop the top and I float on
Stereo blonde like Gohan
Every damn day I drove home
Thinking ‘bout you till the road’s gone …//

ANNE MARIE – 2002
I will always remember
The day you kissed my lips
Light as a feather
And it went just like this
No, it’s never been better
Than the summer of 2002
Uh, we were only eleven
But acting like grown-ups
Like we are in the present
Drinking from plastic cups
Singing, “Love is forever and ever”
Well, I guess that was true
Dancing on the hood in the middle of the woods
On an old Mustang, where we sang
Songs with all our childhood friends
And it went like this, say
Oops, I got 99 problems singing bye, bye, bye
Hold up, if you wanna go and take a ride with me
Better hit me, baby, one more time, uh
Paint a picture for you and me
On the days when we were young, uh
Singing at the top of both our lungs …//
