A Collection of GSR Songs:
Section A: Sara's voice
A/N: Okay so this is kind of a weird little thing I compiled when I was bored. Each of these songs I felt in some way pertained to Sara's view on her situation with Grissom before they got together. I have other chapters for Grissom's POV and one for after they got together….I don't own anything, but enjoy anyway…
'Leave the Pieces' by The Wreckers-
You're not sure that you love me
But you're not sure enough to let me go
Baby it ain't fair
You know just to keep me hangin' round
You say you don't wanna hurt me
Don't wanna see my tears
So why are you still standing here
Just watching me drown
And it's alright, yeah, I'll be fine
Don't worry about this heart of mine
Just take your love and hit the road
There's nothing you can say or do
You're gonna break my heart anyway
So just leave the pieces when you go
Now you can drag out the heartache
Baby you can make it quick
Really get it over with and just let me move on
Don't concern yourself with this mess you've left for me
I can clean it up you see
Just as long as you're gone
And it's alright, yeah, I'll be fine
Don't worry about this heart of mine
Just take your love and hit the road
There's nothing you can say or do
You're gonna break my heart anyway
So just leave the pieces when you go
You're not making up your mind
It's killin' me
and wasting so much time
I need so much more than that
'I'm Still Here' by Vertical Horizon-
I found the pieces in my hand
They were always there
It just took some time for me to understand
You gave me words I just can't say
So if nothing else
I'll just hold on while you drift away
Cause everything you wanted me to hide
Is everything that makes me feel alive
The cities grow the rivers flow
Where you are I'll never know
But I'm still here
If you were right and I was wrong
Why are you the one who's gone
And I'm still here
I'm still here
You've seen the ashes in my heart
You smile the widest when I cry inside and my insides blow apart
I try to wear another face
Just to make you proud
Just to make you put me in my place
But everything you wanted from me
Is everything that I could ever be
The cities grow the rivers flow
Where you are I'll never know
But I'm still here
If you were right and I was wrong
Why are you the one who's gone
And I'm still here
Maybe tonight it's gonna be alright
I will get better
Maybe tonight it'll be okay
I will remember
I held the pieces of my soul
I was shattered
I wanted you to come and make me whole
Then I saw you yesterday
But you didn't notice
You just walked away
Cause everything you wanted me to hide
Is everything that makes me feel alive
The cities grow the rivers flow
Where you are I'll never know
But I'm still here
If you were right and I was wrong
Why are you the one who's gone
And I'm still here
'Men & Mascara' by Julie Roberts-
Sunday dress hanging on the door
Empty bottle of wine on the bedroom floor
Last night he said she was the one
Oh, but men and mascara always run
Did I give my love too soon or wait to long
Did I take it a little too easy
Or put it on too strong
She was lookin' for love, he was looking for fun
Yeah, men and mascara always run
She ain't getting' any younger
It's wasn't supposed to be this way
Starin' in the mirror with little black rivers runnin' down her face
Tomorrow's gonna be a brand new day
She'll wake up in the mornin' and wash it all away
Last night he said she was the one
Oh, but men and mascara always run
Yeah, men and mascara always run
'Broken' by Lindsey Haun-
Wake up to a sunny day
Not a cloud in the sky,
Then in it starts to rain
My defenses hit the ground,
And they shatter all around
So open and exposed
I found strength in the struggle, face to face with my trouble
When you're broken in a million little pieces and you're tryin but you can't hold on anymore.
Every tear falls down for a reason.
Don't you stop believing in your self.
When you're broken.
Little girl don't be so blue,
I know what you're goin through.
Don't let it beat you up.
Heaven knows that getting scars only makes you who you are…
only makes you who you are.
No matter how much your heart is aching,
there is beauty in the breaking….
yeeeaaaahhh
When you're broken in a million little pieces and you're tryin but you cant hold on anymore.
Every tear falls down for a reason.
Don't you stop believing in your self.
When you're broken.
Better days are gonna find you once again every piece will find its place!
'Foolish Games' by Jewel:
You took your coat off and stood in the rain.
You're always crazy like that.
I watched from my window, always felt I was outside
looking in.
You were always the mysterious one with
dark eyes and careless hair you were
fashionably sensitive but too cool to care.
You stood in my doorway, you got nothin to say
besides some comment on the weather
Well in case you failed to notice, in case you failed to see.
This is my heart, bleeding before you.
This is me down on my knees.
And these foolish games are tearing me apart.
And your thoughtless words are breaking my heart.
Breaking my heart...
You're always brilliant in the morning
You're smoking your cigarettes
And talking over coffee.
Your philosophies on art, Baroque moved you, you loved Mozart.
And you speak of your loved ones
as I clumsily strum my guitar.
Well excuse me, cause I've mistaken you for somebody else.
Somebody who gave a damn, somebody more like myself.
And these foolish games are tearing me, tearing me, tearing me apart.
And your thoughtless words are breaking my heart...
You're breaking my heart.
You took your coat off and stood in the rain.
You're always crazy like that.
'Want To' by Sugarland:
I've packed a cooler and a change of clothes
Let's jump and see how far it goes
You got my heart and your daddy's boat
We got all night to make it float
We could sit on the shore, we could just be friends
Or we could jump in
Whole world could change in a minute
Just one kiss could stop this spinning
We could think it through
But I don't want to, if you don't want to
We could keep things just the same
Leave here the way we came, with nothing to lose
But I don't want to, if you don't want to
I got your ring around my neck
And a couple of nights I don't regret
You got a dream of a degree
And a shirt that smells like me
Yeah we both got dreams, we could chase alone
Or we could make our own
Whole world could change in a minute
Just one kiss could stop this spining
We could think it through
But I don't want to, if you don't want to
We could keep things just the same
Leave here the way we came, with nothing to lose
But I don't want to, if you don't want to
Never waste another day
Wonderin' what you threw away
Holdin me, holdin you
I don't want to, if you don't want to
We could keep things just the same
Leave here the way we came, with nothing to lose
But I don't want to, if you don't want to
But I want you
'Long Way To Happy' by P!NK:
One night to you
Lasted six weeks for me
Just a bitter little pill now
Just to try to go to sleep
No more waking up to innocence
Say hello to hesitance
To everyone I meet
Thanks to you years ago
I guess I'll never know
What love means to me but oh
I'll keep on rolling down this road
But I've got a bad, bad feeling
It's gonna take a long time to love
It's gonna take a lot to hold on
It's gonna be a long way to happy, yeah
Left in the pieces that you broke me into
Torn apart but now I've got to
Keep on rolling like a stone
Cause it's gonna be a long long way to happy
Left my childhood behind
In a roll away bed
Everything was so damn simple
Now I'm losing my head
Trying to cover up the damage
And pat out all the bruises
Too young to know I had it
So it didn't hurt to lose it
Didn't hurt to lose it
No but oh
I'll keep on rolling down this road
But I've got a bad, bad feeling
It's gonna take a long time to love
It's gonna take a lot to hold on
It's gonna be a long way to happy, yeah
Left in the pieces that you broke me into
Torn apart but now I've got to
Keep on rolling like a stone
Cause it's gonna be a long long way
Now I'm numb as hell and I can't feel a thing
But don't worry about regret or guilt cause I never knew your name
I just want to thank you
Thank you
From the bottom of my heart
For all the sleepless nights
And for tearing me apart yeah yeah
It's gonna take a long time to love
It's gonna take a lot to hold on
It's gonna be a long way to happy, yeah
Left in the pieces that you broke me into
Torn apart but now I've got to
Keep on rolling like a stone
Cause it's gonna be a long long way
It's gonna take a long time to love
It's gonna take a lot to hold on
It's gonna be a long, long, long, long way to happy, yeah
Left in the pieces that you broke me into
Torn apart but now I've got to
Keep on rolling like a stone
Cause it's gonna be a long long way to happy
'Pieces' by Rascall Flatts:
From the moment that we met
My world was turned around, upside down
To some degree I still regret my memory
For keeping you around
Boy, I thought that you were mine
But my broken heart's been shattered
One too mine times
And I don't wanna see you anymore
I'm just not that strong
I love it when you're here
But I'm better when you're gone
I'm certain that I've given
And oh how you can take
There's no use in you lookin'
There's nothin' left for you to break
Baby, please release me
Let my heart rest in pieces, in pieces
Someone let you down again
So you turn to me, your convenient friend
Oh, but I know what you're doin' and what you hope to find
I've seen it a thousand times
All the fire we had before
Are now just bitter ashes
Left scattered on the floor
And I don't wanna see you anymore
I'm just not that strong
I love it when you're here
But I'm better when you're gone
I'm certain that I've given
And oh how you can take
There's no use in you lookin'
There's nothin' left for you to break
Baby, please release me
Let my heart rest in pieces, in pieces
And I don't wanna see you anymore
I'm just not that strong
I love it when you're here
But I'm better when you're gone
I'm certain that I've given
And oh how you can take
There's no use in you lookin'
There's nothin' left for you to break
Baby, please release me
We both know that you don't need me
Let my heart rest in pieces, in pieces
Let it rest
'I Feel Bad' by Rascall Flatts:
I should be out in that driveway stoppin' you
Tears should be rollin' down my cheek
And I don't know why I'm not fallin' apart like I usually do
And how the thought of losin' you's not killin' me
I feel bad
That I can stand here strong, cold as stone
Seems so wrong,
I can't explain it
Maybe it's just I've cried so much
I'm tried and I'm numb, baby I hate it
I feel bad
That I don't feel bad
I could let myself be angry over wasted time
And sad about just throwin' love away
Yeah, I almost wish my heart was breaking
But I can't lie
All I want to do is turn the page
I feel bad
That I can stand here strong, cold as stone
Seems so wrong
I can't explain it
Maybe it's just I've cried so much
I'm tired and I'm numb, baby I hate it
I feel bad
That I don't feel bad
Bitter, alone
I just feel it's time – it's time to move on
I just gotta move on and on and on and on – yeah
Maybe it's just I've cried so much
I'm tired and I'm numb, oh baby I hate it
I feel bad
That I don't feel bad
No, I don't feel bad
