Meet The Writer: Caroline Bierly

My song, “First Sight,” is a story of my previous relationship that ended mid-October last year. It felt like a fairytale the whole way through until a bomb was dropped on me and ended it abruptly. I wanted to relive the good moments but end with the bad. I chose to make a punk rock/pop-punk song, not only because it is my favorite genre, but also because I think it fits the theme of being a cheesy love story (then a bitter heartbreak). I wanted to make the song chronological in the order of events that occurred so that listeners could go through the events that I went through, minus the feeling of heartbreak and the world crashing down, of course. I hope that by reading my lyrics, people can get a sense of what I went through, and maybe some people can relate to the emotions I felt during that time.

The first time, I saw you

I think I looked right through you. 

Didn't hug you, or kiss you

A simple 'hi' was all I knew.

Squeezed into, the back of

My best friend's old white car.

Didn't really know what I should say to you.

Was it, love at first sight

Or am I crazy?

Was it, meant to be?

Flash forward like 3 months

You spent the night in my room

I was nervous, you sent me

Into a state of anxiety

Lights out, you held me

I did not fall asleep

 

All I wanted was to lie with you

Was it love at, first sight,

Or am I crazy?

Was it, meant to be?

That one night, you called me

I cried myself to sleep

I was worried, you were drinking

And you spilled it all to me

Heartbroken, and lonely

You know you just lost me

For days you tried to get me back

Turns out, it was, not true, love.

We weren't meant to be.
