Down Again

Count The Stars

We'll tap in to the local crew,
we're gonna learn the things they say and what they always do
Symbolize and leave then lies
You leave them all your trust and all your fears
Now something else to do, with just the bitch in you
Telling rhymes of little girls laying up inside
So turn your mind down again
Until you're mine again

No more useless nights
I can't take the fights
I'm bleeding tonight

Well are we down again
We're more than friends
Taking me all the way
I'm waiting I'm saving all the words to say, to someone like you
You always knew me well, when no one knew me quite as well

And figure things out nicely like you do
When you were really young and careless as they seem
It seems you never knew the real me basically
Well my eyes go blind when I
Fade into the light when I know it's right
I nearly lost myself even know I know that now
I cannot see without the finest things in life
That make we wanna know

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
