The Transition

Hawthorne Heights

So here we are
Back to the start again
Trying hard to wait till morning
Hey rise and shine
And open up your eyes
To give this world some color
Shine on diamond eyes
Separate the space
Between love and lies

And as days go by, the memories remain
I'll wait for you
And as days go by, the memories remain
I won't let go

These days remain the same
Pictures fade away

Please don't ever change
Please don't change your mind
No matter what they say
I'll always wait

And as days go by, the memories remain
I'll wait for you
And as days go by, the memories remain
I won't let go

These days remain the same
Pictures fade away

I hope you never fade
As you drip through my veins
Shine on, shine on diamond eyes
Shine on, shine on diamond eyes
Shine on, shine on diamond eyes

And as days go by, the memories remain
I'll wait for you

As days go by I swear I'll try
(i'll wait for you) until I die, anything for you
[to fade]

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.

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.

Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
