Let's go down now
Into the darkness
Of your thoughts
Hurry up now
We're waiting for
Us to fall
I fall to pieces now (I fall to pieces now)
A broken mirror (I fall to pieces)
In your life

The silence in black and white
Falling forward as she walks toward the light

I know!
I'm outside of your window with my radio

I sleep with one eye open so I can
See you breathing (I sleep with one eye open)
I follow your chest bone
Until I, (so I can see you breathing)
I can see you, I can hear you breathe in exhale

The silence in black and white

I know!
I'm outside of your window with my radio
I know!
I'm outside of your window with my radio

Know! Know!

I'm outside of your window
With my radio (wishing you could be there)
I'm outside of your window
With my radio (wishing you could be there)
I'm outside of your window
With my radio (wishing you could be there)

I'm outside of your window with my radio
You are the only station
You play the song I know
You are the song I know

    Wow, this is fucking easy. Obviously, the guy made a shitty mistake, that hurt his girlfriend, and she broke up with him. Okay, so, everyone knows that if a guy holds a radio over his head outside of a girl's window, it's like he's saying he's sorry, except it's more powerful than words.(it's in a movie, if you don't know what I'm talking about) Anyways, so she doesn't want to forgive him, so he spys on her constantly, and wants her back, because he still loves her. "Silence in black and white" means they don't talk to eachother, but he really wants her back. "You are my only station" means that she is all he lives for, all he thinks about. He knows that he screwed up, but when he holds up his radio, it means that he wants a second chance, he is saying that she is his world.

    Seriously, could this song be any easier to decipher?

    And the lyric is actually "I KNOW! I'm outside of your window with my radio" They aren't supposed to be linked or anything, it's just that he knows he fucked up, and he is saying he's sorry for it.

    Guys, in the album booklet the lead singer explains how it's directly based off the movie "Say Anything..." and he wrote it for his actual girlfriend.

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"

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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.

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.

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.
