Our Last Goodbye by Faber Drive
no, it's not alright to pretend there's nothing wrong
it's the same old fight, but its gone on way too long
it's too late for me and you
time that we admit it
say that this is finished
tried to make it work but we took it way too fast
we couldn't make it last
we gotta face the facts and say our last goodbye
this love's a cancer, cause I know it's killing me

I wanted to throw this together because whenever I hear a song I think to myself "that's a good idea for a story." I hope my prompts help other people write the story they're stuck on.
If these inspire, let me know. If you end up writing a story let me know so I can read it. I just really want to know if people like this idea.
When you click on the links on this post it will take you to another post of the song. If you click on the title of the song, it will take you to the song so you can listen to it, and I'll have typed out a few lyrics that I feel like have highlighted the song pretty well.
(side note - if what I typed out doesn't make sense, please let me know, and I'll try to re-word it)
A/N: There will be a variety of genres (pop to metal) on this list, so just keep that in mind.

Every Time by Simple Plan
it was 3 am when you woke me up
we jumped in the car and drive as far as we could go just to get away
we talked about our lives until the sun came up
how I wish I could go back
every time I see your face, every time you look my way it's like it all falls into place
all I need is one more day with you
ever since you walked away, you left my life in disarray
and now I'm sitting here, like we used to do
I think about my life and now there's nothing I won't do just for one more day

Disguise by Motionless in White
this song has swears; metal; maybe don't watch the video if you spook easily (I speak from experience)
spiraling inside my own disguise
this is my design
mirror, mirror, tell me who you see
am I you or me?
I found myself by losing hope
I lost my way to find a home
I hid myself to stay alive
now I'm ready to face my disguise
I am locked within the box I built from the inside out
desperate measures call for desperate lies
sick of wearing a mask, sick of hiding my face
I will not become a figure of my mistakes
I will not become the mask, fear is not my fate
you will not put out the fire that burns in me
I was losing myself in my disguise
