Here's the snippet:

Chapter 1

I put my notebook off to the side, falling back on my bed. My brain hurt. Blake knocks on my cracked door, bringing me a cookie. "How's the songwriting going?" He asks, glancing over at my notebook. "My brain hurts," I reply, glancing over at it. "How many songs have you written?" "Three today." His eyes widen as he stares down at me. He feels my forehead, shaking his head. "No fever, are you okay?" I laugh, shaking my head. "Boy fever is nothing to mess with, do you have a sore throat? Chills? Headache?" "Shut up. I've been dating him for two months." "And you're already writing songs about him." I don't say anything, not looking at him.

"They're about him, right?" He asks, sitting on my bed. "One technically isn't even a love song." I shrug. "That isn't answering my question." He cocks an eyebrow at me. "We'll get back to that, what do you think of this?" I ask, showing him I Believe You.

It's the sick to your stomach feeling with a smile on your face
It's the memory you ignore, but you can't erase
It's the text in the middle of the night you didn't ask for
It can help your career, but at what cost?
Are you holding back something that you're dying to say?
Me, too
Girl, I believe you
Are you losing your mind thinking what will it take
To make somebody listen to you?
Me, too

It's the room full of rumors and everybody starin'
Did they tell you you were asking for it by what you were wearin'?
It's the stains from your makeup and tears on your pillow
It's a piece of yourself that you let go
Do you wanna scream but just can't find the air?
Me, too
Girl, I believe you
Are you losing your mind thinking what will it take
To make somebody listen to you?
Me, too
They say step up and sit down
Shut up and back down
So what's up, yeah, what's up with that?
So we dress up, get felt up
Get shot down, don't speak up
Yeah, what's up, yeah, what's up with that?
Are you holding back something
That you've just been dying to say?
Me, too
Girl, I believe you
Do you know every battle that you've had to face
Is making you bulletproof?
Me, too
Me, too
Girl, I believe you
Do you know every battle that you've had to face
Is making you bulletproof?
Me, too
Girl, I believe you

Blake smiles, reading the lyrics. "Really good, I like that not all of your songs are love songs, this one and Princess really are going to speak to girls. Now, back to what we were discussing." I look up, taking a deep breath. "This is Over My Head." I flip a few pages, showing him.

It's over my head
I hate myself for caring this much
I've become an addict looking for a hit of your love
I'm a long way from sober and I don't wanna get over you
Like a bird needs a gun
I've never been so dependent, who am I turning into

I need a fix, my heart is outta control
And you pull it like a habit baby
I try to kick it, hold my breath, and let go
But the drugs too deep and it's in my bones

I was the one who could take it, leave it
Liked it better when I didn't need it
Drowning slow cause I crave disaster
Overdosing, I'm sinking faster
I'm in over my head, over my head, over my head
I don't understand it but I know
It's over my head, so over my head

Sing me if it's hell or tell me this is paradise
Wherever we are just hold me like I'm yours tonight
It's a long way from over and I'm forever hooked on you
Like thunder needs the rain
Shatter my defenses, who am I turning into
And I'm ashamed to say it but

I need a fix, my heart is outta control
And you pull it like a habit baby
I try to kick it, hold my breath, and let go
But the drugs too deep and it's in my bones

I was the one who could take it, leave it
Liked it better when I didn't need it
Drowning slow cause I crave disaster
Overdosing, I'm sinking faster
I'm in over my head, over my head, over my head
I don't understand it but I know
It's over my head, so over my head

Say that you crave me, will you fixate me
If I come unhinged, let you under my skin
Love me or kill me, your poison can heal me
The needle's in my veins, watch me fly, fly, fly

I need a fix, my heart is outta control
And you pull it like a habit baby
I try to kick it, hold my breath, and let go
But the drugs too deep and it's in my bones

I was the one who could take it, leave it
Liked it better when I didn't need it
Drowning slow cause I crave disaster
Overdosing, I'm sinking faster
I'm in over my head, over my head, over my head
I don't understand it but I know
It's over my head, so over my head

"This one you could maybe pull off for Noah but Dyl, if you're not fully committed to him, you need to end it instead of leading him on." He tells me giving me a look. "That's just it, I am committed until I'm writing music. I don't know if it's just easier for me to write breakup songs or what, and maybe I just need to be with Noah a little longer before I get inspiration, we haven't even said I love you yet, just give me time." He nods, letting out a sigh. "What about the third one." I don't say anything, knowing I'd get a lecture for it. He slowly takes my notebook, flipping. "If I Hated You?" He asks, already giving me a look. "Not that one!" I all but shriek, pulling the notebook back.
