maddi jane - rolling in the deep

There's a fire starting in my heart 
Reaching a fever pitch, it's bringing me out the dark 
Finally I can see you crystal clear 
Go head and sell me out and I'll lay yourself bare 

See how I leave with every piece of you 
Don't underestimate the things that I would do 

There's a fire starting in my heart 
Reaching a fever pitch 
And it's bring me out the dark 

The scars of your love remind me of us 
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all 
The scars of your love they leave me breathless 
I can't help feeling 
We could have had it all 
Rolling in the deep 
You had my heart and soul in your head 
And you played it 
To the beat 

Baby I have no story to be told 
But I've heard one of you 
And I'm gonna make your head burn 
Think of me in the depths of your despair 
Making a home down there 
It Reminds you of the home we shared 

The scars of your love remind me of us 
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all 
The scars of your love they leave me breathless 
I can't help feeling 
We could have had it all 
Rolling in the deep 
You had my heart and soul in your head 
And you played it 
To the beat 

Throw your soul through every open door 
Count your blessings to find what you look for 
Turned my sorrow into treasured gold 
You pay me back in kind and reap just what you sow oh

We could have had it all 
We could have had it all 
It all, it all it all, 
We could have had it all 
Rolling in the deep 
You had my heart and soul in your head
And you played it 
To the beat

We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart and soul in your head
And you played it, you played it, you played it, you played it
To the beat

rolling in the deep

There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch and it's bring me out the dark
Finally I can see you crystal clear
Go ahead and sell me out and I'll lay your ship bare

See how I'll leave, with every piece of you
Don't underestimate the things that I will do
There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch and it's bring me out the dark

The scars of your love remind me of us
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless
I can't help feeling

We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside your hand
And you played it to the beat

Baby, I have no story to be told
But I've heard one of you and I'm gonna make your head burn
Think of me in the depths of your despair
Making a home down there as mine sure won't be shared

The scars of your love remind you of us
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless
I can't help feeling

We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside your hand
And you played it to the beat

Could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside your hand
But you played it with a beating

Throw your soul through every open door
Count your blessings to find what you look for
Turn my sorrow into treasured gold
You pay me back in kind and reap just what you sow

(Now I'm gonna wish you never had met me)
We could have had it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could have had it all

(Now I'm gonna wish you never had met me)
It all, it all, it all, it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)

(Now I'm gonna wish you never had met me)
We could have had it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
Rolling in the deep

(Now I'm gonna wish you never had met me)
You had my heart and soul
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
And you played it to the beat

(Now I'm gonna wish you never had met me)
Could have had it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
Rolling in the deep

(Now I'm gonna wish you never had met me)
You had my heart and soul in your hand
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
But you played it, you played it, you played it to the beat

A Fallen Princess

Sophie hated the dress—an ugly shade of lavender taffeta with a giant bow, and expensive too. She hated the other bridesmaids, who all knew each other before this wedding and never included her in the plans until the last minute. But most of all, she hated the bride.

In her estimation, Allie was shallow, mean, and treated everyone like they were idiots. Sophie wouldn’t spend one second with her if she didn’t have to. But unfortunately, her brother had fallen in love with her, and now Sophie had to stand there and pretend to support the marriage. And also give up her Friday night to eat fancy seafood at the rehearsal dinner.

She hated seafood, too.

“Now don’t faint, okay?” Allie said to her, spearing a piece of salmon on her fork.
Sophie gritted her teeth. “I wasn’t planning on it.”

“No, seriously, though. Greg says you have a history of fainting. I don’t want that to happen tomorrow, understand me? It’ll ruin the wedding. Everyone will talk about that instead of my dress or the music or the flowers or—”

“Allie. Whatever he told you, he’s exaggerating.” He wasn’t really, but Sophie didn’t want to tell Allie that. It wasn’t like she ever fainted on purpose. And since she couldn’t do anything about it, she didn’t feel like listening to Allie’s whole spiel again.

It turned out that Allie was going to give it to her anyway. “Don’t lock your knees up there on the altar. And make sure you eat a good breakfast. And drink plenty of water. But not so much you have to leave the ceremony to go to the bathroom.”

Sophie bobbled her head, suppressing the urge to strangle Allie. Unfortunately, Greg would get mad if she did that. What a shame.

“And get a good night’s sleep. I don’t think Vanessa can do much to help bags under your eyes, and she’s already going to be spending so much time on your makeup anyway—”

Sophie sighed. “Yeah, sure. Look, I’ll be at your house at nine tomorrow, okay?”

The next morning, Sophie—well-rested, full, and carrying a bottle of water—arrived at Allie’s house. She didn’t protest as Allie’s sister Vanessa caked her face with makeup, and she kept her patience as Allie, predictably, questioned if she’d eaten and slept. Then she helped Allie into her monster of a dress—layers and layers of tulle. Sophie couldn’t even begin to imagine how hot a dress like that must be in the July heat.

“Are you sure you don’t want to eat something?” Allie’s mother asked.

Allie shook her head. “My stomach’s too jumpy. I’d just throw it up.”

Sophie didn’t say anything about the hypocrisy. She wasn’t stupid enough to get Allie mad at her today.

When they arrived at the church, they were already running late. The wedding party had to march in almost immediately. Sophie picked up her bouquet—lilies and primroses, delicate but with a powerful smell. Sophie hooked arms with her brother’s best friend and waited until they got the nod, then walked forward , the organ reverberating throughout the church but not quite covering up the whir of the fans.

“You eat today?” he muttered without moving his lips.

Sophie wondered if she could stomp on his foot without being obvious. No, it was a short dress, it wouldn’t work.

“Yes,” she said. “Now shut up.”

They continued down the aisle and separated. Sophie went and stood by Erica, the third bridesmaid. She met her brother’s eyes and flashed him a smile and a thumbs-up sign. He smiled back.

Vanessa and another groomsman came down the aisle, and then the entire church twisted in their seats to face the back to watch Allie and her father walk past them.

Even from all the way across the church, Sophie could see that Allie looked pale, her face matching her dress, and that she was gripping her dad’s arm a little harder than normal. She wobbled on her heels.

When they got to the front of the church, Allie’s dad turned to her and gave her a concerned look. Allie shook her head and whispered something to him. He nodded, kissed her forehead, and let go of her to give Greg a handshake.
Without her dad to hold her up, Allie’s eyes widened and she sucked in a breath as her knees buckled. She collapsed in a dead faint.

And even though Sophie knew she should feel bad for Allie, she snickered.
