Systematically layered beneath the understated
Borderland calling me home
Curiousity has taken it's toll
Empathetic - into the darkness I fall alone
Hear what you say when you whisper the truth of your lies
I wanna fly over falling stars
How I love breathing into this lifelessness
Reminds me I can't paint like God
Say no more
Carve me a smile, make it deep and wide and mortal
Drain my eyes 'til the sky goes pop
Bleeding out in my own idolatry for you
My adoration dripping drop by drop by drop
Can't get enough symphony in her eyes to eden
Enter me my last chance for hope
Had a god but I fucked her all the way...
Because she couldn't feel what I wrote
Say no more
I've heard enough to know

Do you want to bleed the sky?
You better say goodnight tonight

Bleed the sky tonight say goodnight tonight,
I've heard enough to know

I wanna bleed the sky

Make when we bring the Reaper
Sleepin' in the bloodshot eyes
Because I'm down with the sun
And when it keeps you high
Well then forget it - because we're gonna' pop this quiz
When I bleed the sky tonight say goodnight
No more life to live

say no more

Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.

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.

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
