❛ i'm sure that girl is really your friend ❜
❛ you said i was too soft ❜
❛ why do I do this? ❜
❛ i know i'm half responsible and that makes me feel horrible ❜
❛ i know i could've stopped it all, god, why didn't i stop it all? ❜
❛ i met a guy in the summer and i left him in the spring ❜
❛ i wanna make him feel bad ❜
❛ i wanna make him really jealous ❜
❛ i really miss him and it makes me real sad ❜
❛ i want sweet revenge ❜
❛ i want him again ❜
❛ i want to get him back ❜
❛ i write him all these letters, then i throw them in the trash ❜
❛ i miss the way he kisses and the way he made me laugh ❜
❛ he said i was the only girl, but that just wasn't the truth ❜
❛ i am my father's daughter, so maybe i could fix him ❜
❛ i wanna key his car ❜
❛ i wanna break his heart ❜
❛ he's not even gonna know what hit him ❜
❛ he's gonna love me and hate me at the same time ❜
❛ i don't know ❜
❛ i told my friends you were the one ❜
❛ i stayed in bed for like a week ❜
❛ when you said space was what you need, i waited by my phone like a goddamn fool ❜
❛ love's fucking embarrassing ❜
❛ how could i be so stupid? ❜
❛ you found a new version of me ❜
❛ what was i even doing? ❜
❛ i give up ❜
❛ i give up everything ❜
❛ i keep coming back for more ❜
❛ i have nightmares each week about that friday ❜
❛ one phone call from you and my entire world was changed ❜
❛ you took everything i loved and crushed it in between your fingers ❜
❛ i doubt you ever think about the damage that you did ❜
❛ i hold on to every detail like my life depends on it ❜
❛ i hear your voice every time that i think i'm not enough ❜
❛ i try to be tough, but i wanna scream ❜
❛ how could anybody do the things you did so easily? ❜
❛ i say i don't care, i say that i'm fine but you know i can't let it go ❜
❛ i've tried for so long ❜
❛ it takes strength to forgive, but i don't feel strong ❜
❛ i try to understand why you would do this all to me ❜
❛ i know in my heart hurt people hurt people ❜
❛ do you think i deserved it all? ❜
❛ you built me up to watch me fall ❜
❛ you have everything and you still want more ❜
❛ even after all this, you're still everything to me ❜
❛ i know you don't care ❜
❛ there's always something missing ❜
❛ when pretty isn't pretty enough what do you do? ❜
❛ i could change up my body and change up my face ❜
❛ i'd always feel the same ❜
❛ you can win the battle but you'll never win the war ❜
❛ fix the things you hated and you'd still feel so insecure ❜
❛ i try to ignore it, but it's everything i see ❜
❛ i don't know why i even try ❜
❛ i bought all the clothes that they told me to buy ❜
❛ i chased some dumb ideal my whole fucking life ❜
❛ none of it matters and none of it ends ❜
❛ you just feel like shit over and over again ❜
❛ when am i gonna stop being wise beyond my years and just start being wise? ❜
❛ when am i gonna stop being a pretty young thing to guys? ❜
❛ when will it stop being cool to be quietly misunderstood? ❜
❛ i'm sorry that i couldn't always be your teenage dream ❜
❛ when does wide-eyed affection and all good intentions start to not be enough? ❜
❛ will i spend all the rest of my years wishing i could go back? ❜
❛ they all say that it gets better ❜
❛ it gets better the more you grow ❜
❛ it gets better, but what if i don't? ❜

lyric starters from my current On Repeat playlist (part 3)
Show me how to lie, you're getting better all the time
And no one even knew it was really only you
Nice work you did, you're gonna go far, kid
Hit 'em right between the eyes
And if you can't get what you want, well, it's all because of me
My dear, there are secrets here
If only I could break the chain of disappointments weighing me down
I won't be afraid
It's the fear, and not the ghost, that leaves me haunted
You're an anchor for all the heaviest regrets inside of you
I heard you tellin' lies
I know we're the crooked kind
It ain't a talk of "if," just one of "when" and "how"
So, collect your scars and wear 'em well
They're never truly gone
I carry their blood too
I'm far from where I wanna be
I get lost in my delusional reality
It's kinda hard to think about your own mortality
And I'm hoping for a never ending odyssey
Just give me something good
I've made up my mind over and over
I can't be everything you want me to be
But it's all gone
It's all the same sound and my ears are burning
Never to be moved by the words of a liar
The dark doesn't frighten me
I chose to close my eyes
The night doesn't frighten me
I chose to let it thrive
Oh, my precious child, how lucky you are
I got a friend that's losing sleep
I never needed a reason for keeping secrets from myself
I'll wreck this if I have to
Tell me what good would that do
I'd be so good to you
And I don't know how this is wrong
You were a friend of mine
They don't know you like I do
I can never go back home again
Don't you ever tell me I'm not loving you best
And I just need a minute, I just need a breath
It's very hard to drink to my continued success
It's getting better in the worst way
I like to push it and push it until my luck is over
Please just follow me
I wonder how we used to ever go so long without it
I am right beside you
I thought you wanted me
I've been here so very long
I never took you for a trick but sometimes I don't know what you want
I could take it if you need to take this out on someone
I don't know how it got this way
But these problems aside, I think I taught you well
We're here to stay
But you're a king and I'm a lionheart
We're still the same
I'll be here to hold your hand
You won't be alone, we're unstoppable
Don't be ‘fraid to show what we're going for
Oh, all you need to know is that we're holding on
Even if we fall, we will rise up
No, we're not gonna stop until we reach it
We all have our burdens, yeah, but we just keep on fighting and we never look back
I know I was born for this
They just don't get it, I think they forget I'm not done 'til I'm on top
I believe we can write our story
We come from different places, but have the same name
We are the broken ones who chose to spark a flame
I've struggled for years and through all the tears I've faced the doubts I hide
I never gave into my fears deep within 'cause I heard my voice inside
Don't ever lose your hope

So Much (For) Starters.
All starters are lyrics taken from the album So Much (For) Stardust by the band Fall Out Boy, released March 24, 2023. Please feel free to change as you see fit. ( Seeing as I’ve made this meme the day this album came out, some lyrics may be incorrect. My apologies! )
Love From The Other Side
“You know I'm dying out here.”
“What would you trade the pain for?”
“You were the sunshine of my lifetime.”
“I'd never go, I just want to be invited.”
“Sending my love from the other side of the apocalypse.”
“Every lover's got a little dagger in their hand.”
“Nowhere left for us to go but Heaven.”
“Give up what you love before it does you in…”
Heartbreak Feels So Good
“No matter what they tell you, the future's up for grabs.”
“Is there a word for bad miracle?”
“Nobody said the road was endless.”
“Could we please pretend this won't end?”
“We could cry a little? Cry a lot?”
“We could dance our tears away, emancipate ourselves.”
Hold Me Like A Grudge
“When you ask how I've been, I know you mean well.”
“I guess I'm getting older 'cause I'm less pissed.”
“Silent killers are these years coming like waves.”
“You put the ‘fun’ into dysfunction.”
“Hold me like a grudge.”
“The world is always spinning, and I can't keep up.”
“Part-time soulmate, full-time problem.”
“I guess, somehow, we made it back.”
“I am a diamond on the inside, just add the pressure!”
“I thought I knew better, I thought it would get better.”
“I figured somehow by now, I would have got it together.”
“We'll do more than just get by.”
Fake Out
“Make no plans and none can be broken.”
“Do you laugh about me whenever I leave?”
“Do I just need more therapy?”
“Love is in the air, I just gotta figure out a window to break out.”
“My mood board is just pictures of you.”
“I'm not sad anymore.”
“We did it for futures that never came and for pasts that we're never gonna change.”
Heaven, Iowa
“Kiss my cheek, baby, please.”
“Would you read my eulogy?”
“I will never ask you for anything — except to dream sweet of me.”
“I will never ask you for anything.”
“Tell me when the party ends.”
“Will you still love who I am?”
“They don't know how much they’ll miss.”
“Save your breath; half your life you've been hooked on death!”
“Be careful what you bottle up.”
“I'm saving this all for later.”
So Good Right Now
“We'll drive until the engine just gives up.”
“I know I've made mistakes, but at least they were mine to make.”
“I'll be whatever you need me to be.”
“I cut myself down to whatever you need me to be.”
The Pink Seashell
“There's no point to any of this, it's all just a random lottery of meaningless tragedy and a series of near escapes.”
“I take pleasure in the detail, you know, a, a Quarter Pounder with cheese? Those are good.”
I Am My Own Muse
“I like playing dumb, letting you figure me out.”
“I was faded, in my own defense.”
“We got to throw this year away.”
“The trumpets bring the angels, but they never came.”
“I know I keep my feelings so tucked away.”
“Just another day spent hoping we don't fall apart.”
“Let's twist the knife again like we did last summer.”
Flu Game
“I guess to you now, I'm just a face in the crowd.”
“Oh, God, kindly please, would you kill me now?”

HALSEY / BADLANDS (2015) STARTERS
❛ Sick of all these people talking, sick of all this noise. ❜
❛ Now my neck is open wide, begging for a fist around it. ❜
❛ Already choking on my pride, so there's no use crying about it. ❜
❛ I'm headed straight for the castle. ❜
❛ They wanna make me their queen. ❜
❛ I sold my soul to a three-piece; And he told me I was holy. ❜
❛ Hold me down. ❜
❛ Throw me in the deep end, watch me drown. ❜
❛ We are the new Americana. ❜
❛ What kind of dough have you been spending? ❜
❛ What kind of bubblegum have you been blowing lately? ❜
❛ All we do is drive, ❜
❛ All we do is think about the feelings that we hide. ❜
❛ All we do is sit in silence waiting for a sign. ❜
❛ Sick and full of pride. ❜
❛ Would it really kill you if we kissed? ❜
❛ I let him climb inside my body; And held him captive in my kiss. ❜
❛ I'm a wanderess. ❜
❛ I'm a one night stand. ❜
❛ Don't belong to no city; Don't belong to no man. ❜
❛ I'm the violence in the pouring rain; I'm a hurricane. ❜
❛ And I found myself reminded; To keep you far away from me. ❜
❛ Well, lately I like 'em crazy. ❜
❛ Do you remember the taste of my lips that night. ❜
❛ I remember the fear in your eyes. ❜
❛ Didn't know where we were running to; But don't look back. ❜
❛ I imagine the tears in your eyes; The very first night I'll sleep without you. ❜
❛ I'm searching for something that I can't reach. ❜
❛ I don't like them innocent. ❜
❛ I like the sad eyes, bad guys; Mouth full of white lies. ❜
❛ Where'd you go? ❜
❛ What happened to the soul that you used to be? ❜
❛ You say that you're no good for me. ❜
❛ Saying that I love him but I know I'm gonna leave him. ❜
❛ You're only happy when your sorry head is filled with dope. ❜
❛ I hope you make it to the day you're 28 years old. ❜
❛ You're ripped at every edge but you're a masterpiece. ❜
❛ You were a vision in the morning when the light came through. ❜
❛ I know I've only felt religion when I've lied with you. ❜
❛ And I'm still waking every morning but it's not with you. ❜
❛ They think I'm insane. ❜
❛ I don't have to fucking tell you anything. ❜
❛ Well, is this fine? Will it be alright? ❜
❛ That's the beauty of a secret; You know you're supposed to keep it. ❜
❛ I found God; I found him in a lover. ❜
❛ I found the Devil; I found him in a lover. ❜
❛ A love like religion. ❜
❛ I'm such a fool for sacrifice. ❜
❛ I'm such a fool to pay this price. ❜
❛ 'Cause he's off to pay his crimes; And he's got no time for mine. ❜
❛ Keep on haunting me. ❜
❛ I was as pure as a river; But now I think I'm possessed. ❜
❛ You put a fever inside me; And I've been cold since you left. ❜
❛ You've got a fire inside but your heart's so cold. ❜
❛ I've done some things that I can't speak. ❜
❛ I've tried to wash you away but you just won't leave. ❜
❛ 'Cause I came here so you'd come for me. ❜
❛ Are you insane like me? Been in pain like me? ❜
❛ Do you tear yourself apart to entertain like me? ❜
❛ You can't wake up, this is not a dream. ❜
❛ You're part of a machine, you are not a human being. ❜
❛ Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline. ❜
❛ I think there's a flaw in my code. ❜
❛ These voices won't leave me alone. ❜
❛ Well my heart is gold, and my hands are cold ❜
❛ Are you deranged like me? Are you strange like me? ❜
❛ They're coming for me. ❜
❛ And I tried to hold these secrets inside me. ❜
❛ My mind's like a deadly disease. ❜
❛ I'm meaner than my demons. ❜
❛ I'm bigger than these bones. ❜
❛ Please stop, you're scaring me. ❜
❛ I can't help this awful energy. ❜
❛ Goddamn right, you should be scared of me. ❜
❛ Who is in control? ❜
❛ I couldn't stand the person inside me. ❜
❛ I've grown familiar with villains that live in my head. ❜
❛ You know we're gonna be legends. ❜
❛ I know you wanna go to heaven but you're human tonight. ❜
❛ Do you feel like a young god? ❜
❛ You know the two of us are just young gods. ❜
❛ Don't get cut on my edges. ❜
❛ My tongue is a weapon. ❜
❛ If you wanna go to heaven you should fuck me tonight. ❜
❛ I walk the line. ❜

chess (musical) starters. part one.
*starters from the musical. adjust as necessary.
everybody's playing the game but nobody's rules are the same. nobody's on nobody's side.
all men have a weakness: his is that woman.
no one in your life is with you constantly. no one is completely on your side and though i move my world to be with him, still the gap between us is too wide.
no one can deny that these are difficult times.
knowing i want you, knowing i love you, cannot compare to my despair, knowing i've lost you.
they're not too polite.
who needs a dream? who needs ambition? who'd be the fool in my position?
don't get me wrong, i'm not complaining.
that's the problem. he's a brilliant lunatic, and you can't tell which way he'll jump. like his game, he's impossible to analyze. you can't predict him, dissect him, which of course means he's not a lunatic at all.
i've been a fool to allow dreams to become great expectations.
how can i love you so much yet make no move?
one of these days--and it won't be long--he'll know more about me than he should.
if it were love, i would give that love every second i had.
wasn't it good? wasn't he fine? isn't it madness he can't be mine?
i'm on the case, can't be fooled. any objection is overruled.
pity instead the careless mother, what she missed, what she lost when she let me go. i wonder, does she know?
pity the child who knew his parents.
if i knew from the start, why am i falling apart?
i'm not getting rich. my only interest is in something which gives me the chance of working with the best.
you have caused such grief i can't forgive this evil thing you've done.
if you walk out on me, you're really betraying your father. were he alive now he'd surely be dying of shame.
you're on nobody's side, but your own.
there will be days and nights when i'll want you more than i'll want to.
you and i, we've seen it all.
this is the one situation i wanted most to avoid.
the one i should not think of keeps rolling through my mind and i don't want to let that go!
what's going on around me is barely making sense. i need some explanations fast!
what if he saw my whole existence?
what we've just seen's a pathetic display from a man who's beginning to crack. he's afraid. he knows he isn't the player he was and he won't get it back.
once i had dreams now they're obsessions. hopes became needs. lovers possessions.
maybe it's best to love a stranger. well, that's what i've done. heaven help my heart.
who'd ever think it? such a very pretty setting. tell me what's the betting, very pretty plotting, too. no matter--i've done all your work for you.
i want to talk chess.
how'd we ever get this far before you showed me what you really are?
never lose your heart, use your head!
looking back, i could have played it differently. won a few more moments, who can tell?
not much is known of early days of chess beyond a fairly vague report.
where's daddy? dead or in the KGB?
when i was nine, i learned survival, taught myself not to care.
pity the child who twenty-five years on, finds her confidence gone!
how you've hated my success!
it's the only thing i can stay true to.
you got your tricks, good for you, but there's no gambit i don't see through.
there must be more i could achieve but i don't have the nerve to leave!
how can you let mediocrity win? you have one chance left. win for chess. you were five one up. now it's five all. get a grip.
i don't see anything outrageous about demanding what i'm worth.
chasing our hearts' desire, but we go on pretending stories like ours have happy endings.
did i plan doing all of this for the love of a man?

Send me a 👽 and I'll generate a number 1-50 and post the lyric as a starter.
( The Killers edition)
“Like a stumbling ghost, I haunt these halls.”
“I'm breakin' my back just to know your name.”
“We used to look at the stars and confess our dreams.”

“But heaven ain't close in a place like this.”
“Talk about being at the wrong place at the wrong time.”
“I'm so much older than I can take.”
“It’s funny how you just break down waiting on some sign”
“They say the devil's water, it ain't so sweet.”
“Out here the good girls die.”
“But I got the tendency to slip when the nights get wild.”
“Oh, don't you know the kingdom's under siege.”
“So if the answer is no, Can I change your mind?”
“Can you read my mind?”
“I got soul but I'm not a soldier.”
“It's such a bitter form of refuge.”
“Smile like you mean it.”
“I wonder what you came to be.”
“You're going to miss me when I'm gone.”
“Give my regards to soul and romance.”

“She said she loved me, but she had somewhere to go.”
“I knew it when I held you, I wasn't letting go!”
“You know that I was hoping that I could leave this star-crossed world behind.”
“It started out with a kiss. How did it end up like this?”
“Then why can't I sleep at night?”
“It was only a kiss”
“Now they're going to bed and my stomach is sick.”
“Another head aches, another heart breaks.”
“And I'm on my knees looking for the answer.”
“So if I have a chance, would you let me know?”
“You got to know that this is real, baby.”
