I'm an angel with broken wings,
Who's poisoning the night
With love, from me to you
I'm having an episode,
Do you want a small bit part?
I think you might, I hope you do

Oh baby go so slowly
Nowhere, nothing, quiet softly

The world falls apart, in just seven days
It sinks to the bottom, in oceans of rain
The cure is so clear, the blood is astray
And everyone dies, except for the rain
...and I think that I'm starting to scare myself


I hate myself, and I want you to die
So insincere, swallowing ice
And it all will render useless
Welcome to enhancement by affiliation
Time swept by in a hungry nation
And everybody's dancing to get it off their chests
And everybody dies, but no one gets to rest

Go slow for the angels will fall
For the bitterness of this orgy god
Half lives with secular law
Suspended in a drug like state of bliss

    Is it strange that this reminds me of zombie movies?

    the world falls apart, in just seven days it sinks to the bottom, in oceans of rain the cure is so clear, the blood is astray and everyone dies, except for the rain ...and i think that i'm starting to scare myself

    Just that part though. :D Everybody dies and the blood is astray. Makes me think of a world where everything has died and everything is silent except for the falling rain. Creepy zombie movie scene. O_o Okay, I'll stop now.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
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,

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.

Blue
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.

Page
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.
