Before you met me I was a fairy princess
I caught frogs and called them prince
And made myself a queen
Before you knew me I traveled 'round the world
I slept in castles and fell in love
Because I was taught to dream
I found mayonnaise bottles and poked holes on top
To capture tinkerbell
They were just fireflies to the untrained eye
But I could always tell
I believe in fairytales and dreamers dreams like bed sheet sails
And I believe in Peter Pan and miracles
And anything I can to get by
And fireflies...

~~ one of the saddest songs on this playlist. it's from the point of view of a father being told by his daughter about her new friend... the daughter doesn't understand why her friend lies about how she got her bruises. He can't sleep because he knows he has to do something, but by the next day, it's too late. his daughter's new friend was killed by her abusive parent. The music video of this song is painfully powerful. you see Alyssa writing in a notebook "he hit me" over and over again.

My cousin Bobby’s on the county road
Pickin up trash for the car he stole
You see him in them orange clothes you’d swear he’s evil
He’s had sticky fingers since he was a kid
If it wasn’t nailed down considered it his
For the lyin cheatin dog he is he’s GOOD PEOPLE
GOOD PEOPLE they ain’t bad
GOOD PEOPLE they get ya back in a fight
Loan ya couple bucks
Buy you a beer when you’re down on your luck
Too bad their ain’t more of us GOOD PEOPLE
Girl down the street in that doublewide
She ain’t ashamed of them no tan-lines
She’s 36-24-35 and barely legal
She gotta big ‘ol tattoo on her back
All the wives on the block says she’s white trash
She may not be high class but she’s GOOD PEOPLE
GOOD PEOPLE they ain’t bad
GOOD PEOPLE they’ll bring you food when you’re sick
Feed your dog when you’re gone
Cover you up when you pass out on the lawn
Why we gotta look down on GOOD PEOPLE
GOOD PEOPLE they ain’t bad
GOOD PEOPLE give you the shirt off their back
Never steer you wrong,
Go outta their way to make you feel at home
Raise hell stand up let me hear ya if you’re one of us
GOOD PEOPLE

~~This song hits me hard. no one should ever say these things... no one should ever have to feel the pain behind the words... no one should ever think the things she says in this song... I won't let these words come out of my siblings mouths... I won't let the pain be there.... it hurts because I find myself thinking the lyrics of this some and the tears run down my face... it isn't fair that not everyone can have their mother be there, it's not fair that my mom can't be here for us. but I can be here for the little ones....

~~ this was one of my mother's favorite songs. I remember her holding me close to her as the song played, singing softly along as she swayed back and forth... I remember her singing along with Tim McGraw when we went to that concert, how she smiled, beaming, rather than that sad smile that she had the last few weeks of her life....
