Winzárten:]
"Ich fing alle Wunden ohne Rücksicht ein,
ließ keinen Schmerz zurück für all die Menschlein - wein!
All der süße Schmerz von draußen dort herein,
den Trost will ich nicht missen - nie und nimmer - nein!"

[Kargáist:]
"Doch Wunden werden Narben,
und Narben bleiben häßlich,
der Trost ist flüchtiges Empfinden,
die Narben sichtbar weilend gräßlich.
Uns selbst die Wunde, die nicht rot weint,
sie findet meinen Blick,
ich spreche wahr,
zu lösen Deinen Schicksalsstrick."

[Winzárten:]
"Ja, ja ich kenne Dich - "der Trost ist nicht von Dauer"
und ja, ich kenne mich - Du harrst vergebens Lauer."

[Kargáist:]
"Beharrlich bist Du, stur, noch mehr als gedacht,
doch sieh' - Gefühle greifen leer,
nur Augen wägen letztlich schwer."

[Winzárten:]
"Wie die Wunde mir bald Trost,
wird die Narbe später Dein Wohl sein,
da häßlich Du mich schimpfst,
Deine Haltung bringt mir Wunden ein."

[Winzárten:]
"Süße Wunden, süßer Trostm innersüßer Wundenkuß."

[Kargáist:]
"Häßlich, gräßlich, schäme Dich !"

    a dialogue between two objects, one seeking pain and it's scars, the other one beeing ashamed and fearful towards such things

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.

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.
