I actually never heard the original and thought this was an original track from Archetypes Collide. It's only when I searched for the lyrics that I learned that this was a Sam Smith song. Pretty amazing rock cover!
But every time you hurt me, the less that I cry
And every time you leave me, the quicker these tears dry
And every time you walk out, the less I love you
Baby, we don't stand a chance, it's sad, but it's true
I'm way too good at goodbyes
(I'm way too good at goodbyes)
I'm way too good at goodbyes
(I'm way too good at goodbyes) ♪ ♫ ♪
Another good one, but a sad track from Arthur Miguel. The title translates to “Wrong Season” or “Wrong Time”.
The chorus roughly translates to:
It is wrong to force myself to love you.
It is wrong for us to be together.
It's not the right time for us.
It's the wrong thing to pray for.
You're not the one for me.
Marianas Trench is back with a new song! This one sounds like something that would have come out of their Masterpiece Theater or Ever After album. It's a return to the sound and creativity that got me hooked on their music. Song preview won't do this song justice, you need to listen to the full track.
But what about all those voices in the night?
Speaking all the things that keep me from a normal life
But everything almost fits together right
But in the end I don't belong inside a normal
(Don't belong inside a normal)

Fates. An emo sounding track that came out in 2023? Love it.
I'm still avoiding the exit that goes to your old house
Listening to Konstantine
Like we did at seventeen
But I know it's not helping me out
I wish I could let go & blame someone else
I wish I could tell you that
I don't really wanna die
But I don't wanna be alive
Like I did when you were here
I think I'm just scared to death
That you'll always mess with my head
Like you did when you were here ♪ ♫ ♪
Surprisingly not one of their more popular songs. But in my opinion, this is one of the best song they've written. Love how it starts and ends. This is another one that needs to listened to, from start to finish.
There are eight billion people in this world
Eight billion lives are changing
Never felt so alone
Would you consider me in spite of this?
I'm always the one who loses
Would you make me better?
How? (How?) How? (How?)
How will we make this work?
Why (why) do you have to be so far?
It's all clear now
I'm gonna keep you
Like flowing water into forever
That look is all I need to get by
Like living in some illusion
I never felt so alive
I know that there will be flaws around us
The silly wars that we'll be fighting
Yes, I'll be fighting
How? (How?) How? (How?)
How will we make this work?
Why (why) do you have to be so far?
It's all clear now
I'm gonna keep you
Like flowing water into forever
It's all clear now
I'm gonna keep you
Like flowing water into forever
Into forever
Now I'll be the one who holds you, dear

I'm not country and don't usually listen to country music. But this song is too good to ignore. Love that catchy chorus and the lyrics (even if I can't relate).
I'm hallelujah hands high and friends in low places
Red, white, and blue, and red-letter pages
Back-row pew and front-seat Ford
New King James and old King George
I'm washed in the water and mud on the tires
I'm Friday night lights and Sunday morning choir
I'm prayers up to Heaven, roots down in Kentucky

Yes the title is long and weird, but the song is good!
They say that love is forever
Your forever is all that I need
Please stay as long as you need
Can't promise that things won't be broken
But I swear that I will never leave
Please stay forever with me ♪ ♫ ♪
This song came out more than 20 years ago now, so I consider it a #ThrowbackThursday track. It still sounds great today!
I am a little bit of loneliness, a little bit of disregard
Handful of complaints, but I can't help the fact that everyone can see these scars
I am what I want you to want, what I want you to feel
But it's like no matter what I do, I can't convince you, to just believe this is real
So I let go watching you, turn your back like you always do
Face away and pretend that I'm not
But I'll be here 'cause you're all that I got
I can't feel the way I did before
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
Time won't heal this damage anymore
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored ♪ ♫ ♪
Beautiful sentimental music from I Belong to the Zoo. This song starts slow and builds up to a wonderful finish. It's one of those songs you want to listen from start to finish.
The word “Sana” roughly translates to “Should have”. The gist of the chorus/song is something like:
You should have told me (you had someone else), so I wouldn't have expected us to end up together in the end.You should have told me (you had someone else), I would have let you go anyway, so you could be happy.
