Look me in my eyes
Tell me everything's not fine
Or the people ain't happy
And the river has run dry
You thought you could go free
But the system is done for
If you listen here closely
There's a knock at your front door

We'll never get free
Lamb to the slaughter
What you gon' do
When there's blood in the water

It was the best that you could be for me
I think we were lucky just to stay alive
Even when you had only fire to breathe
I know you were only trying to make it right

Change everything I've ever known
Try once again to let you go

If you could go back now would you say it differently
If there was no one there would you open up for me

You show me there's something more to us
Than the same old thing, no usual affair
I will never dream of your love till you take me there
Till you take me there, ooh babe

Your lips feel warm to the touch
You can bring me back to life
On the outside you're ablaze and alive
But you're dead inside!

You're free to touch the sky
Whilst I am crushed and pulverized
Because you need control
Now I'm the one who's letting go
You like to give an inch
Whilst I am giving infinity
But now I've got nothing left
You have no cares and I'm bereft
​

​

But fools gold shines like diamonds in our eyes
Thought we had a million, but baby we got nothing
But fools gold shines like words that make us cry
We just keep on digging, find us something better
For the next time, next time

​You touch the rain and suddenly
There's waterfalls
Now every day is something more
Worth fighting for

Baby, you make the sun shine down
You make the sun shine down
You can paint the darkest clouds
And turn them into rainbows

​
I met you late night, at a party
Some trust fund baby's Brooklyn loft
By the bathroom, you said let's talk
But my confidence is wearing off

These aren't my people
These aren't my friends
She grabbed my face and that's when she said

I like that you're broken
Broken like me

Sometimes I feel like I've been here before
It's like the past knocking on my door
Sometimes I feel like I'm standing still
Or better yet I'm running up a hill

Sometimes I feel like I need a crutch
Sometimes I feel like it's all too much
Sometimes I wonder what are we here for
And if I wanna do it anymore

I need a fresh start, let's go back to the top
Rewind the tape and reset the clock
This time, there's no turning back

10. ​The Struts feat. Kesha - "Body Talks (Remix)"

You can be cool, you can be shy
Say what you want, say what you like
'Cause ooh, your body talks, your body talks

9. ​Keith Urban feat. Julia Michaels - "Coming Home"

I'm longing for the real thing
People who know the real me
And all the ways to love me back to life

8. Hunter Hayes - "Dear God"

You make me love so hard
When everything I love just leaves
Are you sure that there's nothing wrong with me?

7. David Cook - "Death of Me"

I fall apart at the very thought of me and you
We're running through each other ’til we’re black and blue

6. Avril Lavigne - "Head Above Water"

God, keep my head above water
I lose my breath at the bottom
Come rescue me, I'll be waiting
I'm too young to fall asleep

5. Sara Bareilles - "Armor"

I see
The unforgettable, incredible ones who came before me
Brought poetry, brought science
Sowed quiet seeds of self-reliance
Bloomed in me, so here I am
You think I am high and mighty, mister?
Wait 'til you meet my little sister
All my, my, my, my armor comes from you
You make me try, try, try, try harder
Oh, that's all I ever do, ever do
Oh, no no, my, my, my, my armor comes from you
You make me stronger, stronger
Now, hand me my armor

4. Imagine Dragons - "Natural"

That's the price you pay
Leave behind your heartache, cast away

3. Dan + Shay - "Tequila"

I can drink whiskey and red wine
Champagne all night
Little Scotch on the rocks and I'm fine, I'm fine
But when I taste tequila, baby I still see ya

2. ​Zedd, Maren Morris, and Grey - "The Middle"

I'm losing my mind just a little
So why don't you just meet me in the middle?
