Still Believe In You

Army of Me

You're fragile like an eggshell
That I've been kicking in.
I'll piece you back together:
If you will let me in.
So sorry for what I've done,
But believe I've made amends.
Is there a corner in your heart
Where I can make a bed?

I still believe in you.
I still believe in you.

If you gave me one drop
From your golden cup,
I would drink it to contentment
'Cause I don't need that much.
Sometimes you must survive
On just the air you breathe.
Sometimes there is no truth,
But still you do believe.

I still believe in you.
I still believe in you.

this is my profession
Of faith in you, my dear.
I still believe in you.
I still believe in you.
Oh darling, you gave up.

I still believe in you.
I still believe in you.
I still believe in you.
I still believe in you.

    it's pretty self explanatory. i think it is about him hurting someone, and trying to apologize. he believes that he did all he could, and believes that whoever he hurt will find room to forgive them. it seems that the person gave up, as in the line "oh darling, you gave up", but he doesn't want it to be true and still believes forgiveness is possible.

    i saw them live last night, they are absolutely amazing. they're all great to talk to, and everyone should get out and do to their shows.

    ahaah..as of now I have commented on every army of me song there is to comment on. I think your 100% right. There is no need for me to explain any further. It's been too long since I've seen these guys play. They'll be recording their new album- so I don't know if they'll be playing at any local DC venues anytime soon. I sure hope they do though.

    Ditto. I really want them to come home. They seem to be on the west coast right now. The last time I saw them was in like January or something like that- I missed those 3 shows they did at the black cat from february to march, needless to say I was blown.

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

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.

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.

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.
