‘The Middle’ by ‘Jimmy Eat World’
Lyrics
Hey, don’t write yourself off yet
It’s only in your head you feel left out or looked down on.
Just try your best, try everything you can.
And don’t you worry what they tell themselves when you’re away.
Don’t be harsh on yourself even if someone tries to be harsh on you. That’s what this song says. The lyrics say that your job is to give your best and the rest will be taken care of. Do not worry of what others think of you, the song suggests. It tells you never to look down on yourself. It tells you not to worry about what’s being said behind your back, and to let nothing affect your mood.
‘That’s The Way It Is’ by Celine Dion
Lyrics
When you want it the most there’s no easy way out
When you’re ready to go and your heart’s left in doubt
Don’t give up on your faith
Love comes to those who believe it
And that’s the way it is

But this song can work like magic and turn your mood into a positive one, especially, if you’re a fan of Celine Dion songs. Though there is no easy way out, things will fall in place after some time and that is how things are. Most of all, you should believe in the healing power of love, because that’s the way it is.
‘Let’s Get It Started’ by ‘The Black Eyed Peas’
Lyrics
In this context, there’s no disrespect, so, when I bust my rhyme, you break
your necks.
We got five minutes for us to disconnect, from all intellect collect the
rhythm effect.
So lose an inhibition, follow your intuition, free your inner soul and break
away from tradition.

Little darling
It’s been a long, cold lonely winter
Little darling
It feels like years since it’s been here
