Numb

Coma

WE'RE all a bunch of sinners
Faceless and unknown
Buying all the filth and fuck
And trying to sell our own
WE'RE all kings and liars
Bound tight to broken thrones
Forget god the truth is
In lust we trust alone...

WE'RE all living legends for the dead Unborn
WE'RE all nameless sinners WE'RE
All money whores
WE'RE all selling something
Down on all fours
We all count our money
While WE'RE licking our sores
WE'RE all living legends for the deaD
Unborn
WE'RE all nameless sinners WE'RE
All money whores
WE'RE all selling something
Down on all fours
We all count our money
While we suck our sores!

WE'RE all living legends
We are dead unborn
WE'RE all nameless sinners
We are money whores
Im trying to sell you something
DON'T you want more?
Im lyin/tryin/dyin just to give
You more!
WE'RE allthe ones, that are taking
WE'RE all the ones, that are making
WE'RE all the ones, that are faking
WE'RE all the ones, that are shaking

    Plainly, this is just stating our society as it is now. Money is everything, so it seems.

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
