Try to break me down, but I won't face the ground...

They can say anything they want to say
Try to bring me down
But I will not allow
Anyone to succeed
Hanging clouds over me
And they can try hard to make me feel
That I don't matter at all
But I refuse to falter
In what I believe
Or lose faith in my dreams

'Cause there's a light in me
That shines brightly
They can try
But they can't take that away from me
From me...

They can do anything they want to you
If you let them in
But they won't ever win
If you cling to your pride
And just push them aside
See
I have learned there's an inner peace I own
Something in my soul
That they cannot possess
So I won't be afraid
And darkness will fade

'Cause there's a light in me
That shines brightly
They can try
But they can't take that away from me

No
They can't take this
Precious love
I'll always have inside me
Certainly the Lord will guide me
Where I need to go

They can say anything they want to say
Try to break me down
But I won't face the ground
I will rise steadily
Sailing out of their reach
Oh Lord
They do try hard to make me feel
That I don't matter at all
But I refuse to falter
In what I believe
Or lose faith in my dreams

'Cause there's a light in me
That shines brightly
They can try
But they can't take that away from me
From me...


Can't Take That Away From Me (Mariah's Theme) - Mariah Carey - Rainbow (1999)

Y se me desgarra el alma...

Ahora que ya mi vida se encuentra normal
Que tengo en casa quien sueña con verme llegar
Ahora puedo decir que me encuentro de pie
Ahora que me va muy bien

Ahora que con el tiempo logré superar
Aquel amor que por poco me llega a matar
Ahora ya no hay más dolor
Ahora al fin vuelvo a ser yo

Pero me acuerdo de tí
Y otra vez pierdo la calma
Pero me acuerdo de tí
Y se me desgarra el alma
Pero me acuerdo de tí
Y se borra mi sonrisa
Pero me acuerdo de tí
Y mi mundo se hace trizas

Ahora que mi futuro comienza a brillar
Ahora que me han devuelto la seguridad
Ahora ya no hay más dolor
Ahora al fin vuelvo a ser yo

Pero me acuerdo de tí
Y otra vez pierdo la calma
Pero me acuerdo de tí
Y se me desgarra el alma
Pero me acuerdo de tí
Y se borra mi sonrisa
Pero me acuerdo de tí
Y mi mundo se hace trizas

Pero me acuerdo de tí...
Pero me acuerdo de tí...
Y se me desgarra el alma
Pero me acuerdo de tí
Mi sonrisa...
Pero me acuerdo de tí...
Mi mundo trizas...
Pero me acuerdo de tí...


Pero Me Acuerdo De Tí - Christina Aguilera - Mi Reflejo (2000)

Made me learn a little bit faster...

-After all that you put me through,

You think I'd despise you,
But in the end I wanna thank you,
'Cause you've made me that much stronger

Well I thought I knew you, thinkin' that you were true
Guess I, I couldn't trust called your bluff time is up
Cause I've had enough
You were there by my side, always down for the ride
But your joy ride just came down in flames
'Cause your greed sold me out in shame

After all of the stealing and cheating
You probably think that I hold resentment for you
But, oh no, you're wrong
Cause if it wasn't for all that you tried to do, I wouldn't know
Just how capable I am to pull through
So I wanna say thank you
Cause it

Makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
It makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter

Never saw it coming, all of your backstabbing
Just so you could cash in on a good thing
Before I'd realize your game
I heard you're going round play, the victim now
But don't even begin feeling I'm the one to blame
'Cause you dug your own grave
After all of the fights and the lies cause you're wanting to haunt me
But that wont work anymore, no more, it's over
Cause if it wasn't for all of your torture
I wouldn't know how to be this way now and never back down
So I wanna say thank you
Cause it

Makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
It makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter

How could this man I thought I knew
Turn out to be unjust so cruel
Could only see the good in you
Pretend not to know the truth
You tried to hide your lies, disguise yourself
Through living in denial
But in the end you'll see
You-won't-stop-me

I am a fighter and I
I ain't gonna stop
There is no turning back
I've had enough

Makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
It makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter

You thought I would forget
But I remembered
Cause I remembered
I remembered
You thought I would forget
I remembered
Cause I remembered
I remembered

Makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
It makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter


Fighter - Christina Aguilera - Stripped (2002)

Spread your wings and fly, my butterfly...

When you love someone so deeply
They become your life
It's easy to succumb to overwhelming fears inside
Blindly I imagined I could
Keep you under glass
Now I understand to hold you
I must open my hands
And watch you rise

Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
Fly abandonedly into the sun
If you should return to me
We truly were meant to be
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly

I have learned that beauty
Has to flourish in the light
Wild horses run unbridled
Or their spirit dies
You've given me the courage
To be all that I can
And truly feel your heart will
Lead you back to me when you're
Ready to land

Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
Fly abandonedly into the sun
If you should return to me
We truly were meant to be
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly

I can't pretend these tears
Aren't overflowing steadily
I can't prevent this hurt from
Almost overtaking me
But I will stand and say goodbye
For you'll never be mine
Until you know the way it feels to fly

Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
Fly abandonedly into the sun
If you should return to me
We truly were meant to be
So spread your wings and fly

My butterfly
Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
Fly abandonedly into the sun
If you should return to me
We truly were meant to be
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly

So flutter through the sky
Butterfly
Spread your wings and fly
Butterfly


Butterfly - Mariah Carey - Butterfly (1997)

Nobody's telling me just what I wanna...

I need... time

-Time
Love...
Joy...
-Joy
I need... space
-Love
I need... me

-Action!

Say hello to the girl that I am
You're gonna have to see through my perspective
I need to make mistakes just to learn who I am
And I don't wanna be so damn protected

There must be another way
'Cause I believe in taking chances
But who am I to say
What a girl is to do
God, I need some answers

What am I to do with my life
-You will find it out don't worry
How Am I supposed to know what's right?
-You just got to do it your way
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotected

I tell 'em what I like
What I want
What I don't
But every time I do I stand corrected
Things that I've been told
I can't believe what I hear about the world, I realize
I'm overprotected

There must be another way
'Cause I believe in taking chances
But who am I to say
What a girl is to do
God, I need some answers

What am I to do with my life
-You will find it out don't worry
How Am I supposed to know what's right?
-You just got to do it your way
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotected

I need… time,
Love...
I need… space
-This is it, this is it-

I don't need nobody telling me just what I wanna
What I-what-what-what I'm gonna
Do about my destiny
I Say no-no
Nobody's telling me just what I wanna do-do
I'm so fed up with people telling me to be
Someone else but me

-Action!

What am I to do with my life
-You will find it out don't worry
How Am I supposed to know what's right?
-You just got to do it your way
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotected
I don't need nobody telling me just what I wanna
What I-what-what-what I'm gonna
Do about my destiny
I Say no-no
Nobody's telling me just what I wanna do-do
I'm so fed up with people telling me to be
Someone else but me

What am I to do with my life
-You will find it out don't worry
How Am I supposed to know what's right?
-You just got to do it your way
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotected.



Overprotected - Britney Spears - Britney (2001)

If there is nothing missing in her life, why do tears come at night?

This is a story about a girl named Lucky…

Early morning, she wakes up

Knock, knock, knock on the door

It's time for make-up, perfect smile

It's you they're all waiting for

They go…

"Isn't she lovely, this Hollywood girl?"

And they say…

She's so lucky, she's a star

But she cry, cry, cries in her lonely heart, thinking

"If there's nothing missing in my life

Then why do these tears come at night?"

Lost in an image, in a dream

But there's no one there to wake her up

And the world is spinning, and she keeps on winning

But tell me what happens when it stops?

They go…

"Isn't she lovely, this Hollywood girl?"

And they say…

She's so lucky, she's a star

But she cry, cry, cries in her lonely heart, thinking

"If there's nothing missing in my life

Then why do these tears come at night?"

"Best actress, and the winner is…Lucky!"

"I'm Roger Johnson for Pop News

Standing outside the arena waiting for Lucky"

"Oh my god…here she comes!"

Isn't she lucky, this Hollywood girl?

She is so lucky, but why does she cry?

If there is nothing missing in her life

Why do tears come at night?

They say...

She's so lucky, she's a star

But she cry, cry, cries in her lonely heart, thinking

"If there's nothing missing in my life

Then why do these tears come at night?"

She's so lucky

But she cry, cry, cries in her lonely heart, thinking

If there's nothing missing in my life

Then why do these tears come at night?

Lucky - Britney Spears - Oops! ...I Did It Again (2000)

Whatever keeps me in your arms is what I need...

I wanna thank you for giving me time to breathe
Like a rock you waited so patiendly
While I got it together
While I figured it out
I only looked but I never touched
'Cause in my heart was a picture of us
Holdin' hands, makin' plans and it's lucky for me you understand

What a girl wants
What a girl needs
Whatever makes me happy sets you free
And I'm thanking you for knowing exactly
What a girl wants
What a girl needs
Whatever keeps me in your arms
And I'm thanking you for being there for me

A weaker man might have walked away
But you had faith
Strong enough to move over and give me space
While I got it together
While I figured it out
They say if you love something let it go
If it comes back it's yours
That's how you know
It's for keeps yeah, it's for sure
And you're ready and willin'
To give me more than

What a girl wants
What a girl needs
Whatever makes me happy sets you free
And I'm thanking you for knowing exactly
What a girl wants
What a girl needs
Whatever keeps me in your arms
And I'm thanking you for being there for me
Oh, baby
Oh, Darling
Thank you, thank you...

A girl needs somebody sensitive but tough
Somebody there when the goin' gets rough
Every night he'll be giving his love
To just one girl

Somebody cool but tender too
Somebody, baby, just like you
Can keep me hangin' around
With the one who always knew

What a girl wants
What a girl needs
Whatever makes me happy sets you free
I'm thanking you for being there for me
What a girl wants
What a girl needs
Whatever keeps me in your arms
Whatever keeps me in your arms is what I need
What a girl wants
What a girl needs
Whatever makes me happy sets you free
And I'm thanking you for knowing exactly
What a girl wants
What a girl needs
Whatever keeps me in your arms
And I'm thanking you for being there for me

Oh, baby
Oh, Darling
Thank you, thank you for giving me what I need
And what I want...


What A Girl Wants - Christina Aguilera - My Reflection (First Edition-1999)

Right from the start you'd go and break my ♥...

Gimme your love,
Gimme your love

Oh, your love's so good
O don't want to let go
And although I should
I can't leave you alone
'Cause you're so disarming
I'm caugh up in the midst of you
And I cannot resist at all

Boy if I do
The things you want me to
The way I used to do
Would you love me, baby
Or leave me feeling used
Would you go and break
My heart?

Heartbreaker
You got the best of me
But I just keep on coming back
Incessantly
Oh why did you have to
Run your game on me
I should have known
Right from the start
You'd go and break my heart

It's a shame to be
So euphoric and weak
When you smile at me
And you tell me the things
That you know persuade
Me to relinquish my love
To you
But I cannot resist at all

Boy if I do
The things you want me to
The way I used to do
Would you love me, baby
Or leave me feeling used
Would you go and break
My heart?

Heartbreaker
You got the best of me
But I just keep on coming back
Incessantly
Oh why did you have to
Run your game on me
I should have known
Right from the start
You'd go and break my heart

[Jay-Z Rap]

Heartbreaker
You got the best of me
But I just keep on coming back

Oh why did you have to
Run your game on me

You'd go and break my heart
Heartbreaker
You got the best of me
But I just keep on coming back
Incessantly
Oh why did you have to
Run your game on me
I should have known
Right from the start
You'd go and break my heart

Heartbreaker

You got the best of me
But I just keep on coming back
Incessantly
Oh why did you have to
Run your game on me
I should have known
Right from the start
You'd go and break my heart

Gimme your love,
Gimme your love.


Heartbreaker - Mariah Carey Ft. Jay-Z - Rainbow(1999)

Like the ground is crumbling underneath my feet...is like a year without rain...

Can you feel me when I think about you?

With every breath I take
Every minute, no
matter what I do
My world is an empty place

Like I've been wonderin the desert
For a thousand days
Don't know if it's a mirage
But I always see your face, baby

I'm missing you so much
Can't help it, I'm in love
A day without you is like a year without rain
I need you by my side
Don't know how I'll survive
A day without you is like a year without rain

The stars are burning
I hear your voice in my mind
Can't you hear me calling?
My heart is yearning
Like the ocean that's running dry
Catch me I'm falling

It's like the ground is crumbling underneath my feet
Won't you save me?
There's gonna be a monsoon
When you get back to me, baby

I'm missing you so much
Can't help it, I'm in love
A day without you is like a year without rain
I need you by my side
Don't know how I'll survive
A day without you is like a year without rain

So let this drought come to an end
And make this desert flower again
I'm so glad you found me
Stick around me
Baby, baby, baby
It's a world of wonder with you in my life
Still hurting baby
Don't waste no more time
And I need you here
I can't explain
But a day without you
Is like a year without rain

I'm missing you so much
Can't help it, I'm in love
A day without you is like a year without rain
I need you by my side
Don't know how I'll survive
A day without you is like a year without rain


A Year Without Rain - Selena Gomez

None of it was ever worth the risk..but you are...

When I was younger I saw
My daddy cry and curse at the wind.
He broke his own heart and I watched
As he tried to reassemble it.

And my momma swore
That she would never let herself forget.
And that was the day that I promised
I'd never sing of love if it does not exist.

But Darling,
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.

Maybe I know somewhere
Deep in my soul that love never lasts.
And we've got to find other ways
To make it alone, keep a straight face.
And I've always lived like this
Keeping a comfortable distance.
And up until now I had sworn to myself
That I'm content with loneliness.
Because none of it was ever worth the risk.

Well you are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.

I've got a tight grip on reality,
But I can't let go of what's in front of me here.
I know you're leaving in the morning when you wake up.
Leave me with some kind of proof its not a dream.

You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.

You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
And I'm on my way to believing...

And I'm on my way to believing


The Only Exception - Paramore

They taped over your mouth scribbled out the truth with their lies...

I got a lot to say to you
Yeah, I got a lot to say
I noticed your eyes are always glued to me
Keeping them here
And it makes no sense at all

They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
You little spies
They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
You little spies

Crush
Crush
Crush
Crush, crush

Nothing compares to a quiet evening alone
Just the one-two of us, who's counting on
That never happens
I guess I'm dreaming again
Let's be more than this

If you want to play it like a game
Well, come on, come on, let's play
Cause I'd rather waste my life pretending
Than have to forget you for one whole minute

They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
You little spies
They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
You little spies

Crush
Crush
Crush
Crush, crush

Nothing compares to a quiet evening alone
Just the one-two of us, who's counting on
That never happens
I guess I'm dreaming again
Let's be more than this now

Rock and roll, baby
Don't you know that we're all alone now?
I need something to sing about
Rock and roll, hey
Don't you know, baby, we're all alone now?
I need something to sing about
Rock and roll, hey
Don't you know, baby, we're all alone now?
Give me something to sing about

Nothing compares to a quiet evening alone
Just the one-two of us, who's counting on
That never happens
I guess I'm dreaming again
Let's be more than
No
Nothing compares to a quiet evening alone
Just the one-two of us, who's counting on
That never happens
I guess I'm dreaming again
Let's be more than
More than this...

I can feel it in my bones...

Get Hot

Get too close to the flame
Wild open space
Talk like an open book

Better left unknown

Like here comes the sun

Don't go
Stay with the all unknown
Stay away from the hooks

Better left unknown
We're so close to something
Better left unknown
I can feel it in my bones

Let Me Out - Dover

For some reason I can't explain...

I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Once you go there was never
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world

It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become

Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world


Viva la Vida - Coldplay

So I'm moving on.letting go.finding out who I'm gonna be...

Here we are now
Everything is about to change
We face tomorrow as we say goodbye to yesterday
A chapter ending but the stories only just begun
A page is turning for everyone

So I'm moving on, letting go
Holding on to tomorrow
I've always got the memories
While I'm finding out who I'm gonna be
We might be apart but I hope you always know
You'll be with me wherever I go
Wherever I go

So excited I can barely even catch my breath
We have each other to lean on for the road ahead
This happy ending is the start of all our dreams
And I know your heart is with me

So I'm moving on, letting go
Holding on to tomorrow
I've always got the memories
While I'm finding out who I'm gonna be
We might be apart but I hope you always know
You'll be with me wherever I go

It's time to show the world we've got something to say
A song to sing out loud we'll never fade away
I know I'll miss you but we'll meet again someday
We'll never fade away

So I'm moving on, letting go
Holding on to tomorrow
I've always got the memories
While I'm finding out who I'm gonna be
We might be apart but I hope you always know
You'll be with me

So I'm moving on, letting go
Holding on to tomorrow
I've always got the memories
While I'm finding out who I'm gonna be
We might be apart but I hope you always know
You'll be with me wherever I go

Wherever I, wherever I go...
