You're coming off kind of contrived and pretentious
You're not saying anything we haven't heard before
You're caught up in an argument
Oh, you're so lost in modern art

You were losing all and you will find again
Don't lose touch
Don't lose touch
S.O.S. text you from a cell phone

Please tell me I'm not the only one
That thinks we're taking ourselves too seriously
Just a little too enamor with the inflated supra bastion
Oh, talk is cheap and it doesn't mean much

Don't lose touch
Don't lose touch
I'm losing to-o-ouch! (oh-oh-oh!)
Oh, I'm losing touch

Well, I'm losing touch
Well I'm losing to-o-ouch! (oh-oh-oh!)
Oh, I'm losing touch
Well I'm losing touch

Constant entertainment for our restless minds
Constant stimulation for ever appetite
Is there something wrong with these songs?
Maybe there's something wrong with the audience

Manipulation in rock music
Fucking nausea
I'm losing to-o-ouch! (oh-oh-oh!)
Well I'm losing touch

I'm losing touch
Well I'm to-o-ouch! (oh-oh-oh!)
And it's obvious

    EZLN, are you fucking retarded? This song is about OTHER PEOPLE saying he's lost touch. How could you not get that. "Entertainment for our restless minds, constant stimulation for ever appetite. Is there something wrong with these songs? Maybe there's something wrong with the audience. Manipulation in rock music. Fucking nausea. I'm losing touch. " MANIPULATION from their FANS to make the music THEY want to hear, because fuck what Tom wants to make, right? Yet AM still said "fuck everyone," and made this record how they fucking wanted. I have so much respect for them because of that.

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.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

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.
