I decided to cook up a masterlist of Selena Gomez lyrics from an array of her different albums and songs. I figured they might be useful when making bios or sidebar descriptions or graphics or whatever else you might want them for. They’re categorized by song. Obviously I own no rights to any of the lyrics below. It would be much appreciated if you would like or reblog this post. Thank you and enjoy!

Here is a list of favorite quotes from books/movies/shows/songs that can be used for your tags or whatever else you may need them for, as requested! I tried to keep them short, and may add more in the future, but this is as much as I could gather in the past hour.

under the cut is a masterlist of #50 quotes, requested by anonymous a long, long time ago. taken from; songs, celebrities and various movies/tv shows. you can use these in character biographies, as there are diverse quotes here and not just for any one type of character. if this helped you, a like or reblog would be hella. and i’ll probably add to this as time goes on.
