Little girl in my arms turned eight months three days ago
Pretty green eyes that cried when I scolded her
Married thirteen years, I loved my wife and my job
Three perfect daughters I did not deserve
She took them away, said I had grown cold
They found another life with a new daddy to love
I tried to see them but days past they grew away
Gave them my heart, they took the life from me
I watched their life - two months after they had gone
Followed patterns - she went running in the morning
And made my plans - I'll take the fear from their eyes
Daddy is at the door
Don't be afraid
Just let me in
Everything is fine
Her smile shattered - "Daddy why do you have a gun?"
Gun shot painless - I know the others will soon wake
Through the hallway - nine year old died in her bed
Master bedroom - the baby stirs in her crib
Your green eyes
Cry no more
My baby girl
Dies in my arms
You don't have to be afraid anymore
My tears drop on her bloddy face
She will never have to be afraid
The cops found my body laying in bed
Eight-month-old baby dead in my lap
You don't have to be afraid anymore...

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,
Blue
Ed Sheeran
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
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.
Page
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
great band.. amazing song. i love the whole song.. favorite parts are probably the intro and the "don't be afraid" riff. the lyrics are really self-explanatory or id get into them... but this is basically what happens when a broken man has nothing left to lose
i think that this song is about a guy who has created a family, and they are taken away from him, and now he is dead and everything means nothing.. so he now wants to get his revenge, and by doing so, he kills them, and he waits for the cops to find him and everyone else.. hence " you dont have to be afraid anymore " is what he wants them to feel
scary...but awesome
