We Stand, We Can't Stand to Fall Down
I've been busy the past week, there have been challenges, sad times, hard times, and also some good. I have stumbled back upon some of the good people I almost forgot existed ... A new person or two, and a few people that have always been a part of my life, and are here to stay. No matter what though, even the bad things and road blocks I've hit, I don't let things keep me down. I thought I'd share a song that's really awesome about about acknowledging that things have fallen apart, embracing your fears. Then finding the courage to move on and start anew. It's called "It Pulls Me Under" by Butterfly Boucher.
Ambiguous loss is when an unexpected event, trauma, death or significant loss happens and there is no resolution, no answers. The lack of closure prolongs the healing process, it creates unresolved grief. The second song here is called "Words" by Skylar Grey, and it's a beautiful song.
And because I love Skylar Grey, and I loved this song already, the song "Bed of Lies" by Nicki Minaj ft. Skylar Grey.
While we're at it my absolute FAVORITE techno song ever!!! Sharon Den Adel's voice is BEAUTIFUL and Armin Van Buuren is my favorite techno artist by far! The vocals in this song are absolutely perfect. It is almost haunting. This song, the lyrics speak for themselves but some might not understand it.. 157,439,378... That's right 157 MILLION views on youtube. I liked it before there was even a video for it! It will never get old.
AND the band behind the amazing voice Sharon Den Adel , called Within Temptation. One of my favorite rock songs called "What Have You Done?"
Butterfly Boucher -"It Pulls Me Under"
"How does it happen The ship is a wreck The skies have opened and delivered a mess What do we do when it's out of control? My hands are worn My heart is torn (We stand, we stand, we can't stand to fall down) Here comes another (We stand, we stand, we can't stand to fall down) It pulls me under (We stand, we stand, we can't stand to fall down) Here comes another (We stand, we stand, we can't stand to fall down) Don't pull me under My heart is waiting to figure it out Throw me something Help me turn it around What do we do when we're out of control? My hands are worn My heart is torn (We stand, we stand, we can't stand to fall down) Here comes another (We stand, we stand, we can't stand to fall down) It pulls me under (We stand, we stand, we can't stand to fall down) Here comes another (We stand, we stand, we can't stand to fall down) Don't pull me under Ooooooo Ooooooo I won't stay here suspended forever I must be on my way I won't stay here helpless forever I must be on my way I won't stay here suspended forever (Here comes another) I must be on my way (It pulls me under) I wont stay here helpless forever (Here comes another) I must be on my way (Here comes another) We stand, we stand, we cant stand to fall down (It pulls me under) We stand, we stand, we cant stand to fall down (Here comes another) We stand, we stand, we cant stand to fall down"
Skylar Grey -"Words"
Always in a rush Never stay on the phone Long enough Why am I so self important? Said I'd see you soon But that was, oh, Maybe a year ago Didn't know time Was of the essence So many questions But I'm talking to myself I know that you can't hear me Anymore. Not anymore So much to tell you And most of all goodbye But I know that you can't hear me Anymore [Chorus] It's so loud inside my head With words that I Should have said And as I drown in my regret I can't take back The words I never said Always talkin shit Took your advice And did the opposite Just being young and stupid Oh I haven't been all that you Could have hoped for But if you hung on A little longer You'd have had more reasons To be proud Oh So many questions But I'm talking to myself I know that you can't hear me Anymore. Not anymore. So much to tell you And most of all goodbye But I know that you can't hear me Anymore [Chorus] The longer I stand here The louder the silence I know that your gone But sometimes I swear That I hear Your voice when the wind blows So I talk to to the shadows Hoping you might be listening 'Cause I want you to know"
Nicki Minaj ft Skylar Grey - "Bed of Lies" (explicit lyrics so don't read if you're easily offended)
"Do you ever think of me when you lie?
Lie down in your bed, your bed of lies
And I knew better than to look in your eyes
They only pretend you would be mine
And oh how you made me believe
You had me caught in every web that you weaved
But do you ever think of me when you lie?
Lie down in your bed, your bed of lies
You could never make eye contact
Everything you got was based off of my contacts
You a fraud, but I'mma remain icon-stat
Balenciagas on my boots with the python strap
You was caught up in the rush, and you was caught up in the thrill of it
You was with me way before I hit a quarter mill' in it
Put you in the crib and you ain't never pay a bill in it
I was killin' it, man, you got me poppin' pills in it I told
Baby hit you, I said this nigga buggin'
'Cause I was doing it for us, I told 'em fuck the public
Couldn't believe that I was home alone, contemplating
Overdosin', no more coastin', no more toastin' over oceans
They say you don't know what you got 'til it's gone
They say that your darkest hour come before your dawn
But there was something that I should've asked all along
I'mma ask on the song
Do you ever think of me when you lie?
Lie down in your bed, your bed of lies
And I knew better than to look in your eyes
They only pretend you would be mine
And you know how you made me believe
You had me caught in every web that you weaved
But do you ever think of me when you lie?
Lie down in your bed, your bed of lies
I just figured if you saw me, if you looked in my eyes
You'd remember our connection and be freed from the lies
I just figured I was something that you couldn't replace
But there was just a blank stare and I couldn't relate
I just couldn't understand and I couldn't defend
What we had, what we shared, and I couldn't pretend
When the tears roll down it's like you ain't even notice 'em
If you had a heart, I was hoping that you would show it some
What the fuck you really telling me?
What you telling me?
I could tell you lying, get the fuck out, don't yell at me
I ain't mean to cut you, I ain't wanna catch a felony
This ain't How To Be A Player, you ain't Bill Bellamy
They say you don't know what you got 'til it's gone
They say that your darkest hour come before your dawn
But there was something that I should've asked, all along
I'mma ask on the song
So does she know I've been in that bed before?
A thousand count, and not a single thread of truth
If I was just another girl
Then I'm ashamed to say that I'm not over you
There's one thing I need to know
So call me when you're not so busy just thinking of yourself
Do you ever think of me when you lie?
Lie down in your bed, your bed of lies
And I knew better than to look in your eyes
They only pretend you would be mine
And oh how you made me believe
You had me caught in every web that you weaved
But do you ever think of me when you lie?
Lie down in your bed, your bed of lies"
Armin Van Buuren feat. Sharon Den Adel "In and Out of Love"

Within Temptation -"What Have You Done?"
""Would you mind if I hurt you?
Understand that I need to
Wish that I had other choices
than to harm the one I love
What have you done now!
I know I'd better stop trying
You know that there's no denying
I won't show mercy on you now
I know, should stop believing
I know, there's no retrieving
It's over now, what have you done?
What have you done now!
I, I've been waiting for someone like you
But now you are slipping away... oh
Why, why does fate make us suffer?
There's a curse between us, between me and you
What have you done! What have you done!
What have you done! What have you done!
What have you done now!
What have you done! What have you done!
What have you done! What have you done!
Would you mind if I killed you?
Would you mind if I tried to?
Cause you have turned into my worst enemy
You carry hate that I don't feel
It's over now
What have you done?
What have you done now!
I, I've been waiting for someone like you
But now you are slipping away... oh
Why, why does fate make us suffer?
There's a curse between us, between me and you
What have you done! What have you done!
What have you done! What have you done!
What have you done now! What have you done!
What have you done! What have you done!
What have you done!
What have you done now, what have you done?...
I will not fall, won't let it go
We will be free when it ends
I, I've been waiting for someone like you
But now you are slipping away... oh
Why, why does fate make us suffer?
There's a curse between us, between me and you
I, I've been waiting for someone like you
But now you are slipping away... oh
Why, why does fate make us suffer?
There's a curse between us, between me and you"
