This Is My Now 14 months ago

This Is My Now
Jordin Sparks

There was a time I packed my dreams away
Living in a shell, hiding from myself

There was a time when I was so afraid
I thought I’d reached the end
Baby that was then
But I am made of more than my yesterdays

[Chorus]
This is my now, and I am breathing in the moment
As I look around
I can’t believe the love I see
My fears behind me, gone are the shadows and doubts
That was then, this is my now.

Had to decide was I gonna play it safe
Or look somewhere deep inside
and try to turn the tide
Find the strength to take that step of faith

This is my now, and I am breathing in the moment
As I look around
I can’t believe the love I see
My fears behind me, gone are the shadows and doubts
That was then, this is my now.

[Bridge]
And I have the courage like never before, yeah
I’ve settled for less but ready for more
Ready for more

This is my now, and I am breathing in the moment
As I look around
I can’t believe the love I see
My fears behind me, gone are the shadows and doubts
That was then, this is my now.

This is my now



I'm Still Here 20 months ago

I’m Still Here [edit]
Johnny Rzeznik

I am a question to the world,
Not an answer to be heard.
All a moment that’s held in your arms.
And what do you think you’d ever say?
I won’t listen anyway…
You don’t know me,
And I’ll never be what you want me to be.

And what do you think you’d understand?
I’m a girl, no, a woman..
You can take me and throw me away.
And how can you learn what’s never shown?
Yeah, you stand here on your own.
They don’t know me ‘cause I’m not here.

And I want a moment to be real,
Wanna touch things I don’t feel,
Wanna hold on and feel I belong.
And how can the world want me to change,
They’re the ones that stay the same.
They don’t know me,
‘Cause I’m not here.

And you see the things they never see
All you wanted, I could be
Now you know me, and I’m not afraid
And I wanna tell you who I am
Can you help me be a woman?
They can’t break me
As long as I know who I am

And I want a moment to be real,
Wanna touch things I don’t feel,
Wanna hold on and feel I belong.
And how can the world want me to change,
They’re the ones that stay the same.
They can’t see me,
But I’m still here.

They can’t tell me who to be,
‘Cause I’m not what they see.
And the world is still sleepin’,
While I keep on dreamin’ for me.
And their words are just whispers
And lies that I’ll never believe.

And I want a moment to be real,
Wanna touch things I don’t feel,
Wanna hold on and feel I belong.
And how can they say I never change
They’re the ones that stay the same.
I’m the one now,
‘Cause I’m still here.

I’m the one,
‘Cause I’m still here.
I’m still here.
I’m still here.
I’m still here.



I'll be there, as much as it hurts right now... 20 months ago

I’ll Be Waiting [edit]
Lenny Kravitz

She broke your heart
She took your soul
You hurt inside
‘Cause there’s a hole

You need some time
To be alone
Then you will find
What you’ve always known

I’m the one who really loves you baby
I’ve been knocking at your door

As long as I’m living
I’ll be waiting
As long as I’m breathing
I’ll be there
Whenever you call me
I’ll be waiting
Whenever you need me
I’ll be there

I’ve seen you cry
Into the night
I feel your pain
Can I make it right
I realise there’s no end in sight
Yet still I wait
For you to see the light

I’m the one who really loves you baby
I can’t take it anymore

As long as I’m living
I’ll be waiting
As long as I’m breathing
I’ll be there
Whenever you call me
I’ll be waiting
Whenever you need me
I’ll be there

You are the only one
I’ve ever known
That makes me feel this way
Boy you are my own
I want to be with you
Until we’re old
You’ve got the love you need right in front of you
Please come home

As long as I’m living
I’ll be waiting
As long as I’m breathing
I’ll be there
Whenever you call me
I’ll be waiting
Whenever you need me
I’ll be there…



Wasted Time 20 months ago

Wasted Time
Fuel

Say it to my face
Look me in the eyes
And say what you have to say
You know we can’t erase these words before goodbye
And turn the final page

Ahh here comes alone again

Everything’s broken
Everything’s vacant
Everything’s wasted time again
Sentiments hopeless
Innocence jaded
Everything’s wasted time again

And so we leave this stage
And all our best read lines
And all the acts we played
So say you wanna leave
And say we never held the way we always hoped we’d try

And say hello to alone again

‘Cause, everything’s broken
Everything’s vacant
Everything’s wasted time again
Sentiments hopeless
Innocence jaded
Everything’s wasted time again

Ahh someday we might find
Some sacred place in time
But until then all we’ll share
Are dreams we’ve left behind

‘Cause everything’s broken
Everything’s vacant
Everything’s wasted time again

Ahh, yeah!

Everything’s broken
Everything’s vacant
Everything’s wasted time again
Sentiments hopeless
Innocence jaded
Everything’s wasted time again
Everything’s broken
Everything’s vacant
Everything’s wasted time again
Sentiments hopeless
Innocence jaded
Everything’s wasted time again

Everything is broken
Everything is wasted time
Everything is broken
Everything is wasted time

“Love Heals Your Heart”
Third Day

Did you think you were immune to this?
Did you think you could escape without infection?
You do all you’re able to resist
Just to avoid the danger of rejection

Memory warns you of the past
When it all went wrong

When you think your life is shattered
And there’s no way to be fixed again
Love heals your heart
At a time you least expected
You’re alive like you have never been
Love heals your heart

Everybody has a wall to climb
That was built to guard the pain that holds them captive
Every smile that they would hide behind
Will try to mask the hurt beneath the surface

Sometimes it’s hard to understand
How we’re trapped inside

When you think your life is shattered
And there’s no way to be fixed again
Love heals your heart
At a time you least expected
You’re alive like you have never been

Love heals your heart

=D
