Now is the time to seize the day,

Stare down the odds and seize the day. 

Minute by minute, 

That's how you win it,

We will find a way. 

But let us seize the day. 

Courage cannot erase our fear!

Courage is when we face our fear. 

Tell those with power,

Safe in their tower, 

"We will find a way,"

But let us seize the day. 

Behold the brave battalion!

that stands side-by-side!

Too few in number, 

Yet too proud to hide. 

And say to the others!

who did not follow through,

"You're still our brothers, 

"and we will fight for you."

Seize the Day! from NEWSIES the Broadway musical.  

I'm a new soul

I came to this strange world 

Hoping I could lean a bit 'bout how to give and take

But since I came here, felt the joy and the fear

Finding myself making every possible mistake 

-New Soul, by Yael Naim

I'm through accepting limits

'Cause someone says they're so

Some things I cannot change

But 'till I try I'll never know!

That is from Defying Gravity from Wicked, the Broadway musical.

Great idea, Lily!!!! 😀 

Idk, there's this one Twenty One Pilots lyric I like. 

Peace will win, and fear will lose.

It's simple, I like it. (It's from the song Car Radio) 

Also-

Sometimes before it gets better, the darkness gets bigger, the person that you'd take a bullet for is behind the trigger (oh, we're fading fast, I miss missing you, now and then)

That's from Miss Missing You by Fall Out Boy.

I have some other lyrics that I like from Halsey, Sia, PVRIS, Janet Devlin, and Melanie Martinez, I might post them later.

Rise up!

Sorry, couldn't resist XD! 

She tells him "ooh love"
No one's ever gonna hurt you, love
I'm gonna give you all of my love
Nobody matters like you (stay up there, stay up there)
She tells him "your life ain't gonna be nothing like my life (straight)
You're gonna grow and have a good life
I'm gonna do what I've got to do" 

~Rockabye by Sean Paul and Anne Marie

Grander earth has quaked before

Moved by the sound of His voice

And seas that are shaken and stirred

Can be calmed and broken for my regard

-It Is Well, (Hillsong?) It's a Christian song. Again, I think it can sound really inspiring and uplifiting to even non-Christians.

Some PVRIS lyrics! This band is awesome, they sound a ltitle bit like Paramore if you're into them. I recommend all of their songs!

I'm not what I seem, no.
Some would say I'm possessed, yeah,
But I'll confess I've just been obsessed

With life and death and emptiness, I guess. 

~Empty, PVRIS 

You can right all the wrongs just to feel you belong,

But simply calling out sins don't bring you closer to God.

~Holy, PVRIS

All that comes out is white noise and incomprehensible sounds
And all you ever do is turn me down

Sick of the lack of signal
Sick of the lack of touch
Sick of the static voice

It's not enough, it's not enough

~White Noise, PVRIS

Before you came around

I was lost and out of place

~Only Love, PVRIS

This world is a masterpiece
A canvas sheet accountable for such losses
Shout out to the artist who took his heart and his soul and lost them both in the process

~Demon Limbs, PVRIS (This is my favorite lyric ever!)

There's a hole in my chest
And I don't think it's leaving room for anyone

~Waking Up, PVRIS 

This is depressing, but I really love this song.

I Remember Her:

There’s a house, that’s not on a hill
And the paint’s chipping off
Of the old window sill
There’s a tree in the front yard
That’s older than me
And older than all of you

There’s a smell that the heat makes,
It reminds me of Christmas
And birthdays in December

I remember her
I remember her
I remember her so well
I remember her
I remember her
I remember her so well

But things they fade

She would kiss my hand
She would kiss my head
Then she’d fall asleep with me
In my tiny bed
She would sing me lullabies
Gave me my hazel eyes
And then she’d call me beautiful
She made me beautiful

I remember her
I remember her
I remember her so well
I remember her
I remember her
I remember her so well

But things they fade
Things turn to grey
As much as I try to save them
They turn grey
Just like the house, that’s not on a hill
With all of the rust on the gate
The chips on the sill

But I love it still 

When life has cut to deep and left you hurting

The future you had hoped for is now burning

And the dreams you held so tight have lost their meaning

And you don't know if you'll ever find the healing

*You're gonna make it

You're gonna make it

The night can only last for so long

Whatever you're facing

If you're heart is breaking

There's a promise for the ones who just hold on

Lift up your eyes and see

The sun is rising*

Every high and every low you're gonna go through

You don't have to be afraid, I am with you

In the moments you're so weak you feel like stopping

Let the hope you have light the road you're walking

**

Even when you can't imagine how

How you ever gonna find your way out

Even when you're drowning in your doubt

Just look beyond the clouds

The sun is rising
