(Btw, liv, this is perfectly okay to do (: oh, and Warrior was debated for this challenge)

"In real life,

It doesn't always work out

People fall in love

And then they fall out

Hearts can break

And never make a sound"

Multiple other lyrics and then:

"Just when I thought this was all what real life could be

Somebody showed up and made my dream reality

And now in real life

I'm waking up to roses

Champagne, kisses and I know it's

Always, always, gonna be, gonna be this way

In my dreams, he's, standing right beside me

Two hearts, finally collided, then I wake up

And realize, realize this is real life."

In other words: Sometimes you're gonna fall in love, and then you'll fall out of love and it will hurt... but just keep holding on because eventually someone will come along and "make your dreams reality."

The opening lines from Funny Bunny by the Pillows.

Life has become boring for this guy and he's feeling a little apathetic, reminiscing on how exciting everything was when he had this special girl in his life. But she's gone now, and he isn't even really that sad it's been so long, but he can't help but remember all of the happy memories of the goofy times spent joking around with her. There's a sad sort of tone to the piece, but in the end it's a beautiful statement about bringing meaning to our lives, and how important a little laughter can be.

I like it because it's simple. On one hand it is just another 'lost love' song, but it ends on a note that revels in the beautiful pain of life.

王様の声に逆らって

ばれちゃった夜キミが笑っていた

オーロラに触れる丘の上

両手を伸ばして僕を誘っていた

Translation:

Defying the voice of our king

on that night that leaked out; you were laughing

atop a hill touched by the aurora

you supported me, with both hands raised to the sky

Phonetic:

Ohsama no koe ni sakaratte

barechatta yoru kimi ga waratteita

aurora ni sawareru oka no ue

morote wo nobashite boku wo sasotteita

"Cast your net,

Cast it out,

And I hope to god you'll scream and shout,

It's everything you wanted maybe more…"

It means (to me at least) that you can go after you dreams no matter what others think…

"Dismiss the critics"

Is another line in that song. It's just all about following your dreams because it's your life and you can do anything.
