That should've been followed with 'And why you picked them' but I don't have to, nor do I have to name the person, so neener, figure it out on your own.
"Fathers be good to your daughters // Daughters will love like you do // Girls become lovers who turn into mothers // So mothers be good to your daughters too" --John Mayer, "Daughters"
"Easy for a good girl to go bad // And once we've gone, best believe we've gone forever // Don't be the reason, don't be the reason // You better learn how to treat us right // Cause once a good girl goes bad // We die forever" --Rihanna, "Good Girl Gone Bad"
"Child don't close your eyes // The truth contains much beauty // And though it scars your soul // It can heal the wounds it makes // You've been deceived to think // The pain is to be dreaded // But when you've got nothing left // It'll give more than it takes" (which could apply to so many people I know, really) --Kendall Payne, "Honest"
"Don't be afraid // I've taken my beating // I've shared what I made // I'm strong on the surface // Not all the way through // I've never been perfect // But neither have you // So if you're asking me I want you to know // When my time comes, forget the wrong that I've done // Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed // Don't resent me, and when you're feeling empty // Keep me in your memory, leave out all the rest // Leave out all the rest" --Linkin Park, "Leave Out All The Rest"
"Who made up all the rules? // We follow them like fools // Believe them to be true // Don't care to think them through // I'm sorry, so sorry // I'm sorry it's like this // I'm sorry, so sorry // I'm sorry we do this." --Jem, "They"
"Must be strangely exciting to watch the stoic squirm // Must be somewhat heartening to watch shepherd lead shepherd // But you, you're not allowed // You're uninvited // An unfortunate slight" --Alanis Morisette, "Uninvited"
"And I'll be everything that I wanna be // I am confidence in insecurity // I am a voice yet waiting to be heard // I'll shoot the shot, bang, that you hear round the world // And I'm a one girl revolution" --Superchick, "One Girl Revolution"
"She would never say where she came from // Yesterday don't matter if it's gone // While the sun is bright // Or in the darkest night // No one knows // She comes and goes // Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday // Who could hang a name on you? // When you change with every new day // Still I'm gonna miss you" --The Rolling Stones, "Ruby Tuesday"
"When you try your best but you don't succeed // When you get what you want but not what you need // When you feel so tired that you can't sleep // Stuck in reverse // And the tears come streaming down your face // When you lose something you can't replace // When you love someone but it goes to waste // Could it be worse? // Lights will guide you home // And ignite your bones // And I will try to fix you" --Coldplay, "Fix You"
"Trusting desire, starting to learn // Walking through fire without a burn // Clinging, a shoulder, a leap begins // Stinging and older, asleep on pins // So here we go // Now we--oh no--I know--oh no // Who knows where, who goes there? // Here goes" --Rent, "I Should Tell You"
