I'm sick and tired of lyin' here and thinkin'
With informercials sinkin' in
And I can't find my remore
I won't accept the terms of this surrender
'Cause there is something bigger
And I feel it here today

I can't just stand around and wait for somethin'
'Cause I know there is nothing here that I know I can believe
There's a lady on the television telling me
That I can find my destiny if I look up to the stars
But I can see that it's right in front of me
It's here and it's clear

[chorus]
I don't wanna know if the world will end tomorrow
'Cause I feel just fine
I don't wanna know all the answers on this earth
All I need to know is that You're always right there
That's all I need to know

Well I know they say they've figured out the questions
But it's hardly ever mentioned that they always change their minds
The psychics on the phone are always selling me
The future they can see for me, well they can sell to someone else
'Cause I can see that it's right in front of me
It's here and it's clear

[chorus]

[bridge]

Everything we kow is nothing more than drops into an ocean

You're the only thing that never fades away

[chorus]

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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
