Ok Ladies!

I was listneing to the Christina Aguilera CD (Stripped) coming into work today...for those of you who dont have it I recommend it. Good for gaining strength. There are 2 songs (track 3 and 4) that are back to back (obviously duh ;)..anyway, I digress.... First one is "Walk Away" (which talks about how you know this person is bad for you but its so hard to walk away) then the next song is "Fighter" (which talks about becoming stronger and wiser from the experience and moving on)...Ok, so you may not be Christina fans...but two songs that get you MOTIVATED TO CALL IT QUITS. Her voice is so powerful and commanding and I find it helps me when I am feeling a moment of weakness. Even if you dont like her...listen to those 2 songs.

xo!

Christina Aguilera lyrics :: Walk Away lyrics

(What do you do when you know something's bad for you

but you still can't let go?)

I was naive, your love was like candy

artificially sweet, I was deceived by the wrapping

Got caught in your web and I learned how to bleed

I was prey in your bed and devoured completely

And it hurts my soul cause I can't let go

All these walls are caving in, I can't stop my sufferin'

I hate to show that I lost control

Cause I, I keep going right back

To the one thing that I need

To walk away from

Yeaah...

I need to get away from you, need to walk away from you

get away, walk away, walk away. . .

I should have known that I was used for amusement(for amusement)

Couldn't see through the smoke,

It was all an illusion

Now I've been licking my wounds,(licking my wounds) but the venom seeps deeper (deeper, deeper)

We both can seduce, but darlin' you hold me prisoner (prisoner)

Oh, I'm about to break, I can't stop this ache

I'm addicted to your allure, and I'm fiendin' for a cure

Every step I take leads to one mistake

I keep going right back to the one thing that I need

Oh, I can't mend this torn state I'm in

Getting nothing in return, what did I do to deserve

The pain of this slow burn

And everywhere I turn,

I keep going right back to the one thing that I need

To walk away from

yeahh...

I need to get away from you, need to walk away from you

Every time I try to grasp for air

I am smothered in despair

It's never over, over, oh oh. . .

Seems I'll never wake from this nightmare,

I let out a silent prayer. . .

Let it be over, oh. . .

Inside I'm screaming, begging, pleading no more (oooh)

Now what to do, my heart has been bruised

So sad but it's true, each beat reminds me of you

It hurts my soul, cause I can't let go

All these walls are caving in, I can't stop my sufferin'

I hate to show that I've lost control

Cause I, I keep going right back to the one thing that I need

Oh, I'm about to break, I can't stop this ache

I'm addicted to your allure, and I'm fiendin' for a cure

Every step I take leads to one mistake

I keep going right back to the one thing that I need

Oh, I can't mend this torn state I'm in

Getting nothing in return, what did I do to deserve

The pain of this slow burn

And everywhere I turn, I keep going right back to the one thing that I need

To walk away from

yeaahh...

dying... oooh...

i said...

need to get away from you, need to walk away from you

get away, walk away, walk away

(mmm)

Only thing I need to do

Is walk away

Christina Aguilera lyrics :: Fighter lyrics

After all you put me through

You'd think I'd dispise you

But in the end I wanna thank you

'Cause you made that much stronger

Well I thought I knew you, thinking that you were true

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

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, ooh yeah yeah yeah, uh uh

Never saw it coming,

All of your backstabbing

Just so, you could cash in

On a good thing before I'd realized your game

I heard you're going round

Playin' 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

Yes your wanting to HURT 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

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 (fighter and I)

I ain't gon stop (I ain't gon stop)

There is no turning back

I'VE HAD ENOUGH

Makes me that much stronger

Makes me work a little bit harder

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 but I

I remember

Yes, I remember

I'll remember

Thought I would forget

I remember

Yes, I remember

I'll remember

Makes me that much stronger

Makes me work a little bit harder

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
