Ever After by Bonnie Bailey
Three years ago my journey began
Chasing down this cure, no plan in hand
Just your pulse, my racing guide in the dark
Just knowing with conviction from the start
The moment your eyes made an introduction
I felt my second violent breath of life
Flawless to the point of being godly
Yet I fell hard for your imperfections
And now we’re slightly weathered, we’re slightly worn
Our hands grip together eye to eye through the storm yet
I still believe in ever after with you
Coz life is a pleasure with you by my side
And there ain’t no current in this river we can’t ride
I still believe in ever after with you
Nothing compares to the good times
Feels like we’re floating when the rest have to climb
You made me believe in love and not the perfect kind
A real messy beautiful twisted sunshine
Emotions volcanic eruptions
We both still care so we’re still alive
Tunnel vision, determination
I want you I want to make it right
You are my twisted sunshine

Lyrics: Christina Aguilera - “Fighter” lyrics
Album: Stripped
Fighter
Written by Christina Aguilera, Scott Storch
After all you put me through
You’d think I’d despise you
But in the end, I wanna thank you
‘Cause you made me that much stronger
Well I, thought I knew you
Thinking, that you were true
I guess I, I couldn’t trust
Called your bluff, time is up
‘Cause I’ve had enough
You were, there by my side
Always, down for the ride
But your, joy ride just came down in flames
‘Cause your greed sold me out in shame, mmhmm
After all of the stealing and cheating
You probably think that I hold resentment for you
But, uh uh, oh no, you’re wrong
‘Cause if it wasn’t for all that you tried to do
I wouldn’t know, just how capable
I am to pull through
So I wanna say thank you
‘Cause it
Makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
It makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Ooh, yeah, ohh
Never, saw it coming
All of, your backstabbing
Just so, you could cash in
On a good thing before I’d realize your game
I heard, you’re going round
Playing, the victim now
But don’t, even begin
Feeling I’m the one to blame
‘Cause you dug your own grave
After all of the fights and the lies
‘Cause you’re wanting to haunt me
But that won’t work anymore
No more, uh uh, it’s over
‘Cause if it wasn’t for all of your torture
I wouldn’t know how, to be this way now
And never back down
So I wanna say thank you
‘Cause it
Makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
It makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter
How could this man I thought I knew
Turn out to be unjust, so cruel
Could only see the good in you
Pretended not to see the truth
You tried to hide your lies
Disguise yourself
Through living in denial
But in the end you’ll see
You, won’t, stop, me
I am a fighter and I
(I’m a fighter)
I ain’t gon’ stop
(I ain’t gon’ stop)
There is no turning back
I’ve had enough, yeah…
Makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
(Oh, ooh yeah, ooh yeah)
It makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter
Thought I would forget (thought I)
I remember (ohh)
‘Cause I remember (ohh)
I remember
Thought I would forget (ooh)
I remember (ohh)
‘Cause I remember (ohh)
I remember
Makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
It makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter
