Sadcore Sundays: “Between the Bars” by Elliot Smith

Sadcore Sundays: "Between the Bars" by Elliot Smith
Lyrics: Drink up baby, stay up all night With the things you could do You won’t but you might The potential you’ll be That you’ll never see The promises you’ll only make Drink up with me now And forget all about The pressure of days Do what I say And I’ll make you okay And drive them away The images stuck in your headPeople you’ve been before That you don’t want around anymore That push and shove and won’t bend to your will I’ll keep them still

Drink up baby, look at the stars
I’ll kiss you again between the bars
Where I’m seeing you there
With your hands in the air
Waiting to finally be caught

Sadcore Sunday: "I thought I was an alien" by Soko

soko

I’m literally obsessed with Soko right now (first it was Sky Ferreira but I mean, Soko is French it’s like, sorry Sky…R.I.P.) She gets anxiety and depression too !! And she’s just overall her true self and doesn’t give a f*** about anyone. <333

Sadcore Sundays – “Habits” by Tove Lo

Posted by strange on November 14, 2014
This is seriously the ultimate sad girl song. =&0=& I eat my dinner in my bathtub Then I go to sex clubs Watching freaky people gettin’ it on It doesn’t make me nervous If anything I’m restless Yeah, I’ve been around and I’ve seen it all

I get home, I got the munchies
Binge on all my Twinkies
Throw up in the tub
Then I go to sleep
And I drank up all my money
Dazed and kinda lonely

Sadcore Sundays: “Breakeven” by The Script

Posted by strange on October 5, 2014

“I’m still alive but I’m barely breathing
Just prayed to a God that I don’t believe in”

– Sadcore Sunday music pick by Liz Camposthescript Lyrics: I’m still alive but I’m barely breathing Just prayed to a God that I don’t believe in ‘Cause I got time while she got freedom ‘Cause when a heart breaks, no, it don’t break evenHer best days were some of my worst She finally met a man that’s gonna put her first While I’m wide awake she’s no trouble sleeping ‘Cause when a heart breaks no it don’t break even… even… noWhat am I supposed to do when the best part of me was always you? And what am I supposed to say when I’m all choked up and you’re OK? I’m falling to pieces, yeah, I’m falling to piecesThey say bad things happen for a reason But no wise words gonna stop the bleeding ‘Cause she’s moved on while I’m still grieving And when a heart breaks no it don’t break even, even… no

What am I gonna do when the best part of me was always you?
And what am I supposed to say when I’m all choked up and you’re OK?
I’m falling to pieces, yeah,
I’m falling to pieces, yeah,
I’m falling to pieces
(One still in love while the other one’s leaving)
I’m falling to pieces
(‘Cause when a heart breaks no it don’t break even)
