Secret Message: We fall, get back up, and fall again, but this time, only harder.
Inspired by: This song was inspired sort of by what I feel every now and then. Its about someone telling you that you are beautiful and that you don't see one speck of it when you look in the mirror. Its sort of like "Tied Together With A Smile".

VERSE 1:
You turn to me and ask "Hey what's wrong?"
A minute passes by and it seems like a song
"Nothing" I reply
Keeping it all on the inside

PRE-CHORUS:
How can you ever be yourself
When someone tells you to be someone else
its so hard to stand tall and ignore them all

CHORUS:
You tell me I'm beautiful In my own kind of way
To open my eyes and try to find the beauty shine inside
Cause they wanna bring me down
Make me fall to the ground
You say "Babe, don't listen to what they say"
I wish that I could believe the same
But through these eyes theres a different name

VERSE 2:
The long locks and thin thoughts
Its all I ever want
Pictures dancing around in my head
While flipping through a magazine
The tears start to shed and I ask myself "Why can't I look like them?"

CHORUS:
You tell me I'm beautiful In my own kind of way
And to open my eyes and see the beauty inside
Cause they wanna bring me down
Make me fall to the ground
You say "Babe, don't listen to what they say"
I wish that I could believe the same
But through these eyes theres a different name

BRIDGE:
I'm thinking you're right
Maybe I should start to accept myself
I try, but I can't even sleep at night
Cause all I want to be is pretty

CHORUS:
You tell me I'm beautiful In my own kind of way
And to open my eyes and see the beauty inside
Cause they wanna bring me down
Make me fall to the ground
You say "Babe, don't listen to what they say"
I wish that I could believe the same
But in these eyes theres a different name

OUTRO:
You tell me what I want to hear
But why don't I believe it?
All i want to be is perfect
I see differently through these eyes

They're both really great, really! We'd all love to hear what they sound like, so please, please, please record them so we can all hear!

Sorry, BTW, about the topics that inspired both songs. You ARE beautiful, Liv, so don't let the mean artificial friends get you down!

Secret Message: In life you have to accept what happened and just continue living.
Ispired by: This song was inspired by 4 different people. They were all my best friends and one day they all left me in the cold for no reason at all. They hurt me really bad, but I knew that I just had to move on and forget about it. In 20 years I'm not going to remember the names of 5 girls who hurt me really bad.

VERSE 1:
I guess you'll never see the pain
You caused everyday
You could write a book on
How to ruin my day
You don't even see all the different
scars you left
While you were standing there, taking all my best

PRE-CHORUS:
When It's bright you make it grey
and the sunshine fades away
I thought It was obvious
But I guess you'll never see it
How did I not notice
Everything you did?

CHORUS:
Cause now its over
But I've just gotta stay strong
The best memory we had, from March 31st
Is now just the past, wish I saw it first
You left me like a penny in the rain
You thought I was fine
Baby just know yeah my smiles' faded,
But I'm moving on

VERSE 2:
Wednesday came along, after you moved
I listened carefully and saw right through
All your lies and laughter
It felt like my whole life shattered.

CHORUS:
Cause now im tryin' to end it all
But I've just gotta stay strong
I thought the memories were made right then
But turned out I was wrong
You left me like a penny in the rain
You thought I was fine
Baby just know yeah my smiles' faded,
But I'm moving on

BRIDGE:
Looks like you won the game
Cause you got your fame when you hurt me
But babe don't come running back
Because I'll be gone fast

CHORUS:
Cause now im tryin' to end it all
But I've just gotta stay strong
I thought the memories were made right then
But turned out I was wrong
I think its funny how you think i'm still sad
But babe look what I have
A new best friend to hold me along
Yeah you hurt me but here I am
I'm moving on

OUTRO:
So happy that your gone
Im moving on
Im moving on
Oooh Im moving on

Secret Message: Don't bite the hand that feeds you, honey.
Inspired by: One of my really good ex friends. I told her all my problems and I thought that she was there for me, but turns out, she wasn't. Then a week later she bailed on my with all my other so called "friends" and treated me like crap. Then the next month she turned back to me like I was a shoulder to cry on and she wanted me to be there for her..Um, yeah right.

VERSE 1:
You call me up on that cold December night
Apparently you need me now
I heard the message that you left when you called

PRE-CHORUS:
You really think I'm gonna be there
After all the times you falsely said you were there for me
All the words you said drowned out by the rain
Waiting there for me but I never came
Your worlds a little colder, how?
Just know that I'm not coming back now

CHORUS:
And here you are at my door
Throwing pebbles
I guess nobody told you
I'm not gonna be here for you
And so you waited, frustrated
Who's gonna hold you?
I'm not here
I'm not there
For you

VERSE 2:
You need me now, babe do you remember what you did?
Said you'd keep your promise but you never did
You need me now
You really think I'm gonna be there
After all you did to me, hey thats not fair
Heres a heads up, everything has changed
Just go ahead and forget my name

CHORUS:
And here you are at my door
Throwing pebbles
I guess nobody told you
I'm not gonna be here for you
And so you waited, frustrated
Who's gonna hold you?
I'm not here
I'm not there
For you

BRIDGE:
I honestly can't stand her anymore
Is what you said
But baby be careful what you say
Cause one little word can change someone's whole day
Haven't you heard the words
Give what you want in return?
(And after all you did to me, you expect me to help you?)

CHORUS:
And here you are at my door
Throwing pebbles
I guess nobody told you
I'm not gonna be here for you
And so you waited, frustrated
Who's gonna hold you?
I'm not here
I'm not there
For you

OUTRO:
And you should've thought before you spoke
Now look where you are
Left all alone in the dark
