I Wonder

The Willowz

I’m laugin’ but you’re laughin’ at me.
And I think “oh how could this be?”
And I wonder…
If it could be the same.
If it could be the same.

I look around and I close my eyes
Just for a second and begin to cry
And I wonder…
If it could be the saaaaame…
If it could be the same.
If it could be the saa a ame
If it could be the same
It’s not a shame.

My songs, they mean things to me,
Even if you can’t see.
And I wonder
If it could be the same.
If it could be the same.

Suffocatin’ like Brian Jones.
They must be more clear…
Set me freeeeee...
Please set me free.
Please set me free e e.
Please set me free.
Please set me free.

And near the tide
Seems good to me.
But things in life, they ain’t for freeee
They ain’t for free...
They ain’t for free.

Have an urge deeper than me
To quit school and just be free
And I wonder.
If it could be the same…
If it could be the same.
If it could be the saa a ame
If it could be the same.
It’s not a shame.

I wrote a new song and no one cares.
They must be more cleeeaar.
Set me freeee.
Please set me free.
Please set me free e e
Please set me free.
Please set me free.

    Ok people, I had no idea why this wasn't ANYWHERE to be found on the internet, but I listened to the song and got the lyrics down myself. I hope they're 100% correct. Enjoy.

    Nobody's commented this? This song is about someone who wants to write a clear picture of how he's feeling in a song, but can't quite make it clear enough. He feels stress coming from everywhere, including school and he just wants out and to be set free. I think he did something to someone he really had a thing for and wonders if what they had will still be the same after what he did.

    Hard to analyze since it's pretty personal.

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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.
