10 Uplifting Lyrics By The Smiths To Marinate Your Emotions In

In This Article:

The Smiths were an English rock band that first took the world by storm in the 1980s. Many of their toe-tapping tunes are dense with breathtaking guitar riffs and melancholy lyrics.

Here are 10 lyrics by The Smiths to comfort you in any situation... Well, almost.

1. "I wish I could laugh/but that joke isn't funny more/it's too close to home and it's too near the bone/more than you'll ever know"

These lyrics are perfect for all us sensitive folks who take everything too close to heart.

2. "And if the people stare/ Then, the people stare/ Oh I really don't know/And I really don't care"

This is perfect all of the times you embarrass yourself. Just let 'em stare. Who cares? Certainly not you.

3. "In my life/ Why do I smile/ At people who I'd much rather kick in the eye"

The lyrics that will get you through walking in the school hallways.

4. "To die by your side / Is such a heavenly way to die"

The perfect thing to say to your crush... Or not.

5. "Last night I dreamt/That somebody loved me"

For us dreamers...

6. "I was looking for a job, and then I found a job/ And heaven knows I'm miserable now"

This is what adulting is all about.

7. "If you're so funny, then why are you on your own tonight?"

Honestly, these lyrics are a personal attack.

8. "I know I'm alone/ I'm alone, I'm alone, I'm alone"

These are the words to sing when you are watching a cheesy romance film, chugging down ice cream, and hugging an inanimate object instead of a human.

9. "If there's something you'd like to try / Ask me, I won't say no / How could I?"

For all of us without a backbone... We just do not know the word "no."

10. "They said/ There's too much caffeine in your bloodstream/ And a lack of real spice in your life"

And for us folks who drink too much coffee.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
