It's Just Sherry

“Put on Cologne” - Donovan Woods

The bit about “stupid European boyfriend” cracks me up.

You are more than the choices that you’ve made, 
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes, 
You are more than the problems you create, 
You’ve been remade. 

‘Cause this is not about what you’ve done, 
But what’s been done for you. 
This is not about where you’ve been, 
But where your brokenness brings you to 

“You Are More” - Tenth Avenue North

You are MORE. Don’t believe otherwise. 

“Willow Tree March” - The Paper Kites

You fall through the trees
And you pray with your knees on the ground
For the things that you need
With your lust and your greed weighing down
And you weaken your love
And you hold it above your head
Success is a song of the heart, not a song of your bed

And we all still die
Yeah we all still die
What will you leave behind?
Oh we all still die

You fall through the trees
And you pray with your knees on the ground
For the things that you need
With your lust and your greed weighing down
And you weaken your love
And you hold it above your head
Success is a song of the heart, not a song of your bed

And we all still die
Yeah we all still die
What will you leave behind?
Oh we all still die

Marching away from the stream
This tree it will die without leaves
Marching away from the stream
This tree it will die without leaves
This tree it will die
This tree it will die

And we all still die
Yeah we all still die
What will you leave behind?
Oh we all still die

And we all still die
Yeah we all still die
What will you leave behind?
Oh we all still die

“Rusty Chains” - Perfume Genius

All my dreams I see them leave with my old love
no longer near me.
Now I am… of rusty chains around me
Oh, let them, let them break!
Whoever does under this…
Uh, let me climb my way to the front

Like that summer, the one we spent before
He was taken from me
So safe, that feeling is so…
Oh, let me rest
In these arms again
So safe words the feeling.
In so many ways

“Through Your Eyes” - The Honey Trees

Take all I have, but leave me here
All I want is you
I am awake, I see you near
Darling you, you are
The one that keeps me here

Wake up, wake up
I want to see through your eyes
I want to see through your eyes
Wake up, wake up
I want to see through your eyes
I want to see through your eyes

“To Let Myself Go” - Ane Brun

To let myself go

To let myself flow

Is the only way of being

There’s no use telling me

There’s no use taking a step back

A step back for me

“Nothing Like You And I” - The Perishers

We spent some time
together walking
Spent some time just talking
about who we were
You held my hand so
very tightly
And told me what we
could be dreaming of

There’s nothing like you and I

“Syrup” - Company of Thieves

Days and days and dollar bags of time, feel the everlasting tide
Rows of houses, all are painted white
I lost you in the dead of night

Your love syrup, so sweet, I feel dangerous indeed
Your love syrup, so sweet

“Dare You to Move” - Switchfoot

I dare you to move
I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened before

Welcome to the fallout
Welcome to resistance
The tension is here
Tension is here
Between who you are and who you could be
Between how it is and how it should be

Maybe redemption has stories to tell
Maybe forgiveness is right where you fell
Where can you run to escape from yourself?
Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna go?
Salvation is here

“You Already Know” - Bombay Bicycle Club

Said love was painted gold
Like all things growing old
The paint peels and slowly falls
You already know

Looking out the glass
Always sit together
We both know we could be someone better
Not with our heads like London weather
