Inspirations

Natalie Major- Fake Plastic Trees (Radiohead Cover)

Love her voice. Love this cover. I went to high school with Natalie. And we share the same birthday. Her voice has always been strong even when we were younger. I remember her performances at our variety shows. She'd blow everyone's mind. Still does. Hope she makes it!

Rachael Yamagata- Be Be Your Love

I've always loved this song. It's my shower-singing song.

Unforgettable Memory

This day was just like any other that day. Over a year later, it's an unforgettable memory. Walking on the board walk.  It was his first weekend living in California. It was colder than we had imagined it'd be. He gave me his jacket. We rode the Ferris wheel. We admired the ocean and other couples. There weren't that many people there. The wind muffled out the sound of the meek crowd there was. Our own conversations and thoughts became our soundtrack. It's true what they say, "Enjoy the little things in life, for one day you will look back and realize they were the big things."

I love you, like crazy.


I wanted someone to make me smile,
someone who would hold me tight.
I hoped he would stay longer than just awhile,
and I knew when he came, it’d feel so right.
I needed him to make me feel good inside,
and I needed him here when I’d start losing my mind.
I hoped our worlds would someday collide,
and we’d have the strongest love that was undefined.
He needed to be handsome.
and he needed to be my rock.
 He needed to love me through my worst tantrums,
and to make me feel I’m the girl with the greatest luck.
He’s all I’d ever want and need,
and our love would be the only truth.
For him, my love would bleed.
Our love would be our proof.
His love would always keep me happy and laughing.
It would always feel brand new.
It would keep my heart continuously dancing.
I swear I dreamt of you before I knew you.

Here we are one year later,
and you have been more than just these things.
You have honestly been something much greater.
We may not live like queens and kings,
But our love is worth way more.
It’s worth the long and lonely distance,
and more than anything I’ve ever owned.
Someday you will be an actor,
and I will be your wife.
I know I’m the girl you’ve been looking for,
and I’ll be yours for the rest of your life.
I know, it’s only been a year,
But I’m not thinking if , but, or maybe.
Because when I’m with you, I lose all fear.
I love you, like crazy.

 Lana Del Rey- Video Game



Swinging in the backyard
Pull up in your fast car
Whistling my name

Open up a beer
And you say get over here
And play a video game

I'm in his favorite sun dress
Watching me get undressed
Take that body downtown

I say you the bestest
Lean in for a big kiss
Put his favorite perfume on

Go play a video game

It's you, it's you, it's all for you
Everything I do
I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth with you
Tell me all the things you want to do
I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?
It's better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living if somebody is loving you
Baby now you do

Singing in the old bars
Swinging with the old stars
Living for the fame

Kissing in the blue dark
Playing pool and wild darts
Video games

He holds me in his big arms
Drunk and I am seeing stars
This is all I think of

Watching all our friends fall
In and out of Old Paul's
This is my idea of fun
Playing video games

It's you, it's you, it's all for you
Everything I do
I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth with you
Tell me all the things you want to do
I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?
It's better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living if somebody is loving you
Baby now you do

(Now you do)

It's you, it's you, it's all for you
Everything I do
I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth with you
Tell me all the things you want to do
I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?
It's better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living if somebody is loving you
Baby now you do

 Adele- Someone Like You


I heard
That you're settled down
That you found a girl
And you're married now
I heard
That your dreams came true
Guess she gave you things
I didn't give to you

Old friend
Why are you so shy
Ain't like you to hold back
Or hide from the light

I hate to turn up out of the blue
Uninvited
But I couldn't stay away
I couldn't fight it
I'd hoped you'd see my face
And that you'd be reminded
That for me
It isn't over

Never mind I'll find
Someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you
Too.. Don't forget me
I beg
I remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead
Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead
Yeah

You'd know
How the time flies
Only yesterday
Was the time of our lives
We were born and raised
In a summer haze
Bound by the surprise
Of our glory days

I hate to turn up out of the blue
Uninvited
But I couldn't stay away
I couldn't fight it
I'd hoped you'd see my face
And that you'd be reminded
That for me
It isn't over

Never mind I'll find
Someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you
Too.. Don't forget me
I beg
I remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead, yeah

Nothing compares
No worries, or cares
Regrets and mistakes
They're memories made
Who would have known.. How..
Bittersweet
This would taste

Never mind I'll find
Someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you
Don't forget me
I beg
I remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead

Never mind I'll find
Someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you
Too.. Don't forget me
I beg
I remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead
Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead
Yeah, Yeah..
