Killing You Now

Fear of Sound

Take this fucking knife out of my back now,
I'm through being the laughter of your dead joke,
You should have killed me when you fucked my over
When I find your hands around your neck and start to choke

I want to see you plead and scream, cryin' to god
Because I lost it all I have no reason to live with you

Only he can guess what I'm goin' do to you
Just remember I don't get mad, I get even
Because of you I disconnect, dismay's all that's left for me
Because of you I disconnect - I'm killing you now

Down on your knees I wanna see you beg
Tears building up here before me
I'm gonna to tear you up I'm going to break you down
Gonna show you my pain and my misery

Here I am in this lonely place, without you
Now I'm alone and I'm forgotten
I have become you

Only he can guess what I'm goin' to do to you
Just remember I don't get mad, I get even
Because of you I disconnect, dismay's all that's left for me
Because of you I disconnect - I'm killing you now

Because of you I disconnect, dismay's all that's left for me now
Because of you I disconnect - I'm killing you now
Because of you I disconnect, dismay's all that's left for me
Because of you I disconnect - I'm killing you now!

    this song's awesome, I love the sound, it's almost like it's hard & soft rock mixed. The lyrics rock too. It's bout some1 stabbing you in the back, or fucking you over...& how it changes you in a way...& how you wanna get even with that person for wut they did~

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.

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,

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.
