This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
And all these stupid silly songs
Keep trying to catch your ear
I'm trying desperately
It's just so hard to persevere
And even if you listened
I never had to much to say
Cause its the same old song
I'm written for the day
Shelter me oh genius words
Just give me strength
Just to pen these things
And give me peace to well her wings
And carry on, oh carry on
All you minstrels of the world
We will catch our ladies ear
We will win for us the girl
All these minstrels through the ages
That is really all we are
Simply singing for the girl
That makes us try so very hard
To craft the perfect limerick
To wield unending woe
To write such silly songs
And the different never know
Shelter me oh genius words
Just give me strength
Just to pen these things
And give me peace to well her wings
And carry on, oh carry on
All you minstrels of the world
We will catch our ladies ear
We will win for us the girl
And I'll hold on to the dream
Of this beggar's plea and optimistic fantasy
Just hold the hand and drop the knee
You're facing love
You're embracing melody
Shelter me oh genius words
Just give me strength
Just to pen these things
And give me peace to well her wings
And carry on, oh carry on
All you minstrels of the world
We will catch our ladies ear
We will win for us the girl
And oh carry on all you minstrels of the world
We will catch our ladies ear
We will win for us the girl
Keep trying to catch your ear
I'm trying desperately
It's just so hard to persevere
And even if you listened
I never had to much to say
Cause its the same old song
I'm written for the day
Shelter me oh genius words
Just give me strength
Just to pen these things
And give me peace to well her wings
And carry on, oh carry on
All you minstrels of the world
We will catch our ladies ear
We will win for us the girl
All these minstrels through the ages
That is really all we are
Simply singing for the girl
That makes us try so very hard
To craft the perfect limerick
To wield unending woe
To write such silly songs
And the different never know
Shelter me oh genius words
Just give me strength
Just to pen these things
And give me peace to well her wings
And carry on, oh carry on
All you minstrels of the world
We will catch our ladies ear
We will win for us the girl
And I'll hold on to the dream
Of this beggar's plea and optimistic fantasy
Just hold the hand and drop the knee
You're facing love
You're embracing melody
Shelter me oh genius words
Just give me strength
Just to pen these things
And give me peace to well her wings
And carry on, oh carry on
All you minstrels of the world
We will catch our ladies ear
We will win for us the girl
And oh carry on all you minstrels of the world
We will catch our ladies ear
We will win for us the girl

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
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.
Magical
Ed Sheeran
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.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
This is the most beautiful song.. It's so perfect and no matter how much you play it.. still sounds Great !!
