One Long Sad Song

This post is a bit different. Consider it a music meme.

So, my Spotify’s most frequently recommended playlist for me is called Sad Hour, and that’s okay — I’m an emotional being and I’ll always honor that. But that’s beside the point. I just wanted to post my “mashed song” because I liked it that much! As I was listening today, I picked 1 line or 2 or 3… out of 30 songs and then made it into just ONE long messy sad song. No reason whatsoever other than, as always, have fun with words. Life is not that serious.

I’m pasting the list of artists at the bottom. If anyone wants to play, and correctly match which line belongs to whom (song and artist), then, congratulations! You’ve out-nerded me. 🙂

For the record, I rearranged lyrics to rhyme and maybe added a connector, but the words aren’t mine.

THE SONG:

Honestly this party’s over

We’re all just broken people
and we don’t know why
but we’re keeping it together
cause we gotta try

This always happens to me this way
recurring visions of such sweet days
down days, they blow me away
could you show me some mercy
if I start to stray?

Was just sitting here thinking
we could call it love or
we could call it nothing
but baby give me something

Never been the type to
let someone see right through
I played dumb but I always knew,
you get deja vu when she’s with you

We were never two, my dear, we were three
did I get fooled or are you a fool just like me?

Who truly stuck the knife in first?
I’m done cause I always get hurt

But don’t let love get in the way
feel the fear and do it anyway

Are you crying in the shower
like a freak, or is it just me?

Don’t stand so close to me
I’m the problem, it’s me
or maybe I’m starting to believe
it should be illegal to deceive
a woman, woman like me

So take a look at what you’ve done
cause it’s hard to do these things alone

Sometimes I miss London,
sometimes I miss you
but I had no time to choose
what I chose to do

You were my ride or die
now trying to figure out why
nobody on my side
I want all the tears back that I cried

I saw the signs and I ignored it
made me think I deserved it
I gave it all and you gave me sh*t

It feels like sh*t but that’s just how it is
when you love a narcissist

So here we are, the broken hearted
crowding the bar, just getting started.
