Wait For Me

Flaw

All these miles, haunting questions linger in my mind
And all the while, making bad decisions out of line
Still I've tried, to let go of the danger in my life
It's alright, when that's the only thing I've left behind
And there's still time...

Wait for me
There's so much more of life for us to see
You must believe,
It's not because of you I've had to leave
Wait for me
I only hope that you'll remember me

At this time, I'm counting all the reasons I should stay
Bottom line, I'm missing all the things I gave away
I remind, and see your faces every single day
Still I'm blind, I wish that there was something I could say
To make things right...

Wait for me
There's so much more of life for us to see
You must believe,
It's not because of you I've had to leave
Wait for me
I only hope that you'll remember me

Just hold on a little bit longer
Thoughts and memories will be enough
My need for you is only growing stronger
I know you don't understand it much
But it doesn't mean I have to care about you any less
It doesn't have a thing to do with that
There's still so many questions that are gonna' be addressed
I'm sorry that it had to be like this
But there's still time to make things right

Wait for me
There's so much more of life for us to see
You must believe,
It's not because of you I've had to leave
Wait for me
I only hope that you'll remember me

Wait for me

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
