Music and Lyrics (15): ON REPEAT

It's been a while since I last heard some of these songs but I noticed that I terribly missed them so now they are also included in my current playlist along with these new ones I've loved since summer break:

1) Demons by Imagine Dragons

I dedicate this song to Meda (Cracked and Crushed by Eliza Crewe - amazing book!).

"They say it's what you make
I say it's up to fate
It's woven in my soul
I need to let you go"




2) Counting Stars by OneRepublic

"Everything that kills me makes me feel alive"




3) Best Day of My Life by American Authors

My sister's current ON-REPEAT playlist: American Authors album.




4) Nightmare by Avenged Sevenfold

I miss Avenged Sevenfold. That's all.




5) Afterlife by Avenged Sevenfold

"And when I think of all the places I just don't belong,
I've come to grips with life and realize this is going too far."




6) Afterlife by Switchfoot

I saw Daylighters' (Rachel Caine) track list. Afterlife is included and it made me cry because it fits and I realized how badly I missed Switchfoot's Vice Verses album it's not funny.

"I still believe we could live forever
You and I we begin forever now."




7) Sunday Morning by Maroon 5

"But things just get so crazy living life gets hard to do
And I would gladly hit the road get up and go if I knew
That someday it would lead me back to you"




5) Wake Me Up by Avicii (GLEE)

I love this version more than Avicii's because the arrangement fits the lyrics.

"They tell me I'm too young to understand
They say I'm caught up in a dream
Well life will pass me by if I don't open up my eyes
Well that's fine by me"




6) Sleepsong by Bastille

"Your dreams and memories are blurring into one
The scenes which hold the waking world slowly come undone"




7) Things We Lost in the Fire by Bastille

"Flames – they licked the walls
Tenderly they turned to dust all that I adore"
