4 Songs That Hit You Right In The Feels
Abbey Singer

I think we all have that playlist on our phones that is the direct result from a heartbreak. You know what I'm talking about, it's either labeled "the feels" or with a simple ":(" under your Spotify playlists. AND GUESS WHAT, it's totally okay to admit it! I know every one of you people reading this has one of those kinds of playlists and if not, you at least have a few secret songs hidden away that bring back some old memories for you. I know this is extremely personal to each and every one of you, but in a strange last ditch effort to get rid of some of my "feels" I wanted to share my 4 most personal songs with the world.

I'm a crazy person, I'm aware. I'm just gonna roll with it...

1. Lost Stars - Adam Levine

"Please don't see just a boy caught up in dreams and fantasies
Please see me reaching out for someone I can't see
Take my hand let's see where we wake up tomorrow
Best laid plans sometimes are just a one night stand
I'd be damned Cupid's demanding back his arrow
So let's get drunk on our tears and

God, tell us the reason youth is wasted on the young
It's hunting season and the lambs are on the run
Searching for meaning
But are we all lost stars, trying to light up the dark?

Who are we? Just a speck of dust within the galaxy?
Woe is me, if we're not careful turns into reality
Don't you dare let our best memories bring you sorrow
Yesterday I saw a lion kiss a deer
Turn the page maybe we'll find a brand new ending
Where we're dancing in our tears and

God, tell us the reason youth is wasted on the young
It's hunting season and the lambs are on the run
Searching for meaning
But are we all lost stars, trying to light up the dark? ooh

And I thought I saw you out there crying, ooh
And I thought I heard you call my name, yeah, yeah
And I thought I heard you out there crying, oh
Just the same, oh, yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

God, give us the reason youth is wasted on the young
It's hunting season and this lamb is on the run
Searching for meaning
But are we all lost stars, trying to light up the dark? ooh

And I thought I saw you out there crying, ooh
And I thought I heard you call my name, ooh
And I thought I heard you out there crying, oh

But are we all lost stars, trying to light up the dark?
But are we all lost stars, trying to light up the dark?"


2. Desperado - Eagles

"Desperado, why don't you come to your senses
You been out ridin' fences for so long now
Oh, you're a hard one
I know that you got your reasons
These things that are pleasin' you
Can hurt you somehow

Don't you draw the Queen of Diamonds, boy
She'll beat you if she's able
You know the Queen of Hearts is always your best bet

Now, it seems to me some fine things
Have been laid upon your table,
But you only want the ones that you can't get

Desperado, oh, you ain't gettin' no younger
Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home

And freedom, oh freedom, well that's just some people talkin'
Your prison is walking through this world all alone

Don't your feet get cold in the winter time?
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
It's hard to tell the night time from the day
You're losin' all your highs and lows;
Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away?

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
Come down from your fences; open the gate
It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you

You better let somebody love you, before it's too late"

3. Hourglass - Catfish and the Bottlemen


****start at 1:39 for the good stuff

"You know when you're gone I struggle at night
Dreams of you f**ing me all the time
And I know your tied up
And I know your phone's f***ed
I'm craving your calls like a soldier's wife
I wanna bring you home myself
Bring you home myself
Come back, move in, mess my place
Chest infect me, waste my days
'Cause I know you love to drive me up the wall
I know you love to drive me up the wall
I wanna bring you home myself
Bring you home myself
And I'm so impatient when you're not mine
I just want to catch up on all the lost times
And I'll say I'm sorry if I sound sordid
'Cause all I really ever want is you
Offer my hand and I'll take your name
Share my shower, kiss my frame
'Cause I wanna carry all of your children

And I wanna call them stupid sh*t"

4. Muscle Memory (acoustic) - Lights

"After having spent the fast year
Waiting for the next time I can get you close
I grew used to being back here
Like a chorus and rhyme, soldier at his post

You call and I respond, the sparrow and the song
I miss you when you’re gone

When I am alone, I see you in the dark
I talk into the empty like you were with me
Started on a cold night, felt you in the low light
Noticing a reflex taking over me
I see you when I reach
Muscle memory

Again, off into the next fall
I am on the back steps trying to let you in
See you standing in the front hall
Maybe this is madness underneath my skin

Guess love is the response of the body it haunts
And we do what it wants

When I am alone, I see you in the dark
I talk into the empty like you were with me
Started on a cold night, felt you in the low light
Noticing a reflex taking over me
I see you when I reach
Muscle memory
I feel you endlessly
Muscle memory

When you feel the chains of a thousand words
And I speak your name like I know you heard
I can feel you there, I can hear you move
And it moves me, too

And I’m playing games and I’m drinking wine
And I see your glass sitting next to mine
I can feel you there when you’re not at home
Like I’m not alone

When I am alone, I see you in the dark
I talk into the empty like you were with me
Started on a cold night, felt you in the low light
Noticing a reflex taking over me
I see you when I reach
Muscle memory
I feel you endlessly
Muscle memory"

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.
