Life on a Roller Coaster

"When a resolute young fellow steps up to the great bully, the world, and takes him boldly by the beard, he is often surprised to find it comes off in his hand, and that it was only tied on to scare away the timid adventurers." -Ralph Waldo Emerson

Broken

Wake up to a sunny day
not a cloud up in the sky,
then it starts to rain
My defenses hit the ground,
And they shatter all around.
So open and exposed.

I found strength in the struggle.
Face to face with my trouble.

When you're broken in a million little pieces and you're tryin but you cant hold on anymore.
Every tear falls down for a reason.
Don't you stop believing in your self.
When you're broken.

Little girl don't be so blue,
I know what you're goin through.
Don't let it beat you up.
Hitting walls and getting scars only makes you who you are...
Only makes you who you are.
No matter how much your heart is aching,
there is beauty in the breaking....
Yeah...

When you're broken in a million little pieces and you're tryin but you cant hold on anymore.
Every tear falls down for a reason.
Don't you stop believing in yourself.
When you're broken.

Better days are gonna find you once again every piece will find its place!

Lyrics - Lindsay Haun, "Broken" from "Broken Bridges"

SAY IT RIGHT ~Nelly Furtado

In the day
In the night
Say it right
Say it all
You either got it
Or you don't
You either stand
Or you fall
When your will
Is broken
When it slips
From your hand
When there's no
Time for joking
There's a hole
In my plan

That I'm not Lost
And at fault
I can't say
That I don't
Love the light
And the dark
I can't say
That I don't
Know that
I Am alive
And I love
What I feel
I could show
You tonite, you tonite

From my hands
I could give you
Something
That I made
From my mouth
I could sing you
Another bridge
That I made
From my body
I could show you
A place
God knows
You should know
Space is holy
Do you really
Wanna go?

Oh you don't mean nothing at all to me
No you don't mean nothing at all to me
But you got what it takes to set me free
Oh you could mean everything to me
