pt. ii, lyrics that made me sob on the floor at 2 am, taken from or inspired by the lyrical masterpiece that is red (tv).

STAY STAY STAY.

‘ i’m pretty sure we almost broke up last night. ’

‘ i was expecting some dramatic turn away, but you stayed. ’

‘ you should never leave a fight unresolved. ’

‘ i’ve been loving you for quite some time. ’

‘ you think that it’s funny when i’m mad. ’

‘ i think that it’s best if we both stay. ’

‘ i love you because you have given me no choice but to stay. ’

‘ you took the time to memorize me: my fears, my hopes, my dreams. ’

‘ it’s been occurring to me i’d like to hang out with you my whole life. ’

‘ no one else is going to love me when i get mad. ’

THE LAST TIME.

‘ you find yourself at my door, just like all those times before. ’

‘ all roads they lead me here. ’

‘ right before your eyes, i’m breaking. ’

‘ this is the last time i’m asking you this. ’

‘ put my name at the top of your list. ’

‘ you break my heart in the blink of an eye. ’

‘ you wear your best apology, but i was there to watch you leave. ’

HOLY GROUND.

‘ i was reminiscing just the other day. ’

‘ it took me away, back to a first-glance feeling. ’

‘ i guess we fell apart in the usual way. ’

‘ you fit in my poems like a perfect rhyme. ’

‘ the story’s got dust on every page. ’

‘ darling it was good, never looking down. ’

�� where we stood was holy ground. ’

‘ for the first time i had something to lose. ’

‘ i see your face in every crowd. ’

‘ i don’t want to dance, if i’m not dancing with you. ’

SAD BEAUTIFUL TRAGIC.

‘ words, how little they mean when you’re a little too late. ’

‘ good girls, hopeful they’ll be, and long will they wait. ’

‘ we had a beautiful magic love there. ’

‘ in dreams i meet you in warm conversation. ’

‘ we both wake in lonely beds in different cities. ’

‘ time is taking its sweet time erasing you. ’

‘ you’ve got your demons, and darling they all look like me. ’

‘ what a sad, beautiful tragic love affair. ’

THE LUCKY ONE.

‘ the camera flashes make it look like a dream. ’

‘ you’ve had it figured out since you were in school. ’

‘ everybody loves pretty, everybody loves cool. ’

‘ your name goes up in lights like diamonds in the sky. ’

‘ your lover in the foyer doesn’t even know you. ’

‘ your secrets end up splashed on the news front page. ’

‘ they tell you that you’re lucky, but you’re so confused. ’

‘ you don’t feel pretty, you just feel used. ’

‘ all the young things line up to take your place. ’

‘ you wonder if you’ll make it out alive. ’

‘ they still tell the legend of how you disappeared. ’

‘ it took some time, but i understand it now. ’

‘ i think you’ve got it right. ’

‘ let me tell you now, you’re the lucky one. ’

EVERYTHING HAS CHANGED.

‘ all i knew this morning when i woke is i know something now i didn’t before. ’

‘ i just wanna know you better. ’

‘ your eyes looked like coming home. ’

‘ you’ll be mine and i’ll be yours. ’

‘ everything has changed. ’

‘ all my walls stood tall, painted blue, but i’ll take them down and open up the door for you. ’

‘ all i know in my stomach is butterflies: the beautiful kind, making up for lost time. ’

‘ come back and tell me why. ’

‘ i’m feeling like i’ve missed you all this time. ’

‘ let me know that it’s not all in my mind. ’

STARLIGHT.

‘ oh my, what a marvelous tune. ’

‘ it was the best night, never would forget how we moved. ’

‘ the whole place is dressed to the nines. ’

‘ we were dancing like we’re made of starlight. ’

‘ we were seventeen and crazy, running wild. ’

‘ i can’t remember what song he was playing as he walked in. ’

‘ look at you, worrying so much about things you can’t change. ’

‘ you’ll spend your whole life singing the blues if you keep thinking that way. ’

‘ don’t you see the starlight ? ’

‘ don’t you dream impossible things ? ’

‘ we could get married. ’

‘ we could have ten kids, and teach them how to dream. ’

BEGIN AGAIN.

‘ you throw your head back laughing like a little kid. ’

‘ i think it’s strange that you think i’m funny, cause he / she / they never did. ’

‘ i’ve been spending the last few months thinking all love ever does is break, and burn, and end. ’

‘ on a wednesday in a cafe i watched it begin again. ’

‘ you don’t know why i’m coming off a little shy, but i do. ’

‘ for the first time, what’s past is past. ’

THE MOMENT I KNEW.

‘ you should’ve been there. ’

‘ it would’ve felt like a million little stars had just aligned. ’

‘ i would’ve been so happy. ’

‘ i’ve got my eye on the door just waiting for you to walk in. ’

‘ you said you’d be here. ’

‘ it was like slow motion. ’

‘ i was standing there in my party dress, in red lipstick with no one to impress. ’

‘ there was one thing missing. ’

‘ that was the moment i knew. ’

‘ i try not to fall apart as the sinking feeling starts. ’

‘ what do you say when tears are streaming down your face in front of everyone you know ? ’

‘ what do you do when the one who means the most to you is the one who didn’t show ? ’

COME BACK … BE HERE.

‘ i told myself don’t get attached. ’

‘ this is when the feeling sinks in. ’

‘ i don’t want to miss you like this. ’

‘ come back, be here. ’

‘ i don’t want to need you this way. ’

‘ i guess you’re in london today. ’

‘ if i had known what i know now, i never would have played so nonchalant. ’

‘ this is falling in love in the cruelest way. ’

‘ i am falling for you when you are worlds away. ’

‘ i break down, cause it’s not fair that you’re not around. ’

GIRL AT HOME.

‘ don’t look at me. ’

‘ you’ve got a girl at home and everybody knows that. ’

‘ i feel a responsibility to do what’s upstanding and right. ’

‘ you’ve been getting closer and closer, and crossing so many lines. ’

‘ it’d be a fine proposition, if i was a stupid girl. ’

‘ i am no one’s exception. ’

‘ you’re the kind of man who makes me sad. ’

‘ let’s consider this lesson learned. ’

‘ i might go with it if i hadn’t once been just like her. ’
