1. Godspeed – Frank Ocean
“Wishing you godspeed, glory
There will be mountains you won’t move
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Still I’ll always be there for you
How I do
I let go of my claim on you
It’s a free world
You look down on where you came from sometimes
But you’ll have this place to call home always”
2. If I Believe You – The 1975
“And if I believe you
Will that make it stop?
If I told you I need you
Is that what you want?
And I’m broken and bleeding
And begging for help (there’s no use singing a song)
And I’m asking you Jesus, show yourself”
3. Shot Down – Khalid
I’ve been through the worst
But I never knew how much our love could hurt
Over my family I put you first
Riding on my feelings is the only thing that work
I don’t hear from the friends I thought were mine too
But I hold on to the poems I would write you
Happy seventeen, I saw us two and you saw three
I guess our lines are structured like a haiku
And you got my heart now
Why won’t you stop now?
Oh I’ve been knocked down by you
And you got my heart now
Why won’t you stop now?”
4. The Weekend – SZA
“You say you got a girl
Yeah, how you want me?
How you want me when you got a girl?
The feelin’ is reckless
Of knowin’ it’s selfish
And knowin’ I’m desperate
Gettin’ all in your love
Fallin’ all over love, like
Do it ’til it hurts less
Hangin’ out the back, all up in your lap
Like is you comin’ home? Is you out with her?
I don’t care long as you’re here by 10:30, no later than”
5. Too Good At Goodbyes – Sam Smith
“But every time you hurt me, the less that I cry
And every time you leave me, the quicker these tears dry
And every time you walk out, the less I love you
Baby, we don’t stand a chance, it’s sad but it’s true”
6. Falling – Harry Styles
“I’m in my bed
And you’re not here
And there’s no one to blame but the drink and my wandering hands
Forget what I said
It’s not what I meant
And I can’t take it back
I can’t unpack the baggage you left
What am I now?
What if I’m someone I don’t want around?
I’m fallin’ again
I’m fallin’ again
I’m fallin'”
7. All I Ask – Adele
“If this is my last night with you
Hold me like I’m more than just a friend
Give me a memory I can use
Take me by the hand while we do what lovers do
It matters how this ends
‘Cause what if I never love again?”
8. Malibu Nights – LANY
“I got way too much time to be this hurt
Somebody help, it’s getting worse
What do you do with a broken heart?
Once the light fades, everything is dark
Way too much whiskey in my blood
I feel my body giving up
Can I hold on for another night?
What do I do with all this time?”
9. Easily – Bruno Major
“Don’t you tell me that it wasn’t meant to be
Call it quits
Call it destiny
Just because it won’t come easily
Doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try”
10. Untitled – Rex Orange County
“And I don’t mind if you hate me
‘Cause baby if I were you
I would probably hate me too
I said that I don’t mind if you hate me
‘Cause baby if I were you
I would probably hate me too”
11. My Boo – Usher ft. Alicia Keys
“It started when we were younger, you were mine (my boo)
Now another brother’s taken over, but it’s still in your eyes (my boo)
Even though we used to argue, it’s alright (my boo)
I know we haven’t seen each other in a while
But you will always be my boo
I was in love with you when we were younger, you were mine (my boo)
And I see it from time to time, I still feel like (my boo)
And I can see it no matter how I try to hide (my boo)
And even though there’s another man who’s in my life
You will always be my boo”
12. More Than My Hometown – Morgan Wallen
“I love you more than a California sunset
More than a beer when you ain’t twenty-one yet
More than a Sunday morning Lord
Turnin’ some poor lost souls around, Hallelujah bound
Yeah, I love you more than the feeling when the bass hits a hook
When the guy gets the girl at the end of the book
But, baby, this might be the last time I get to lay you down
‘Cause I can’t love you more than my hometown”
13. I Hate You, I Love You – Gnash ft. Olivia O’Brien
Or right after coffee
Or right when I can’t eat
I miss you in my front seat
Still got sand in my sweaters
From nights we don’t remember
Fucked around and got attached to you
Friends can break your heart too
And I’m always tired but never of you”
14. 8 – Billie Eilish
“You said don’t treat me badly
But you said it so sadly
So I did the best I could
Not thinking you would have left me gladly
I know you’re not sorry
Why should you be
‘Cause who am I to be in love
When your love never is for me
Me”
15. Are You Bored Yet – Wallows ft. Clairo
“Feels like I’ve known you my whole life
I can see right through your lies
I don’t know where we’re going
But I’d like to be by your side
If you could tell me how you’re feeling
Maybe we’d get through this undefeated
Holding on for so long”

Hello! My name is Sara Bowers and I am a Senior at Azusa Pacific University where I am double majoring in Allied Health and Honors Humanities and minoring in Psychology. As a young girl, I loved to write and English became my favorite subject very quickly. The sciences also intrigued me and I was often told to choose one path, but I did not want to sacrifice either of my passions. It turns out I didn't have to and thanks to the many novels read in my Humanities courses and the writing prompts I tackled alongside them, my love of writing was further affirmed and I grew more confident that I made the correct decision in pursuing both paths. I have a heart for helping people by any means necessary, so if that means helping someone with a physical ailment, informing someone of the best places to eat, or giving tips to calm anxiety, I am all for it. So, there you have it - that's me! Thank you for taking the time out of your day to get to know me a little bit! I hope you stop by and check out more of my articles in the future!
