Everyday I sit here waiting
Everyday just seems so long
And now I've had enough of all the hating
Do we even care, it's so unfair
Any day it'll all be over
Any day there's nothing new
And now I just try to find some hope
To try and hold onto
And it starts again
It'll never end

I'm heavily broken
And I don't know what to do
Can't you see I'm choking
And I can't even move
When there's nothing left to say
What can you do
I'm heavily broken
And there's nothing I can do

Almost giving up on trying
Almost heading for a fall
And now I'm screaming
I've gotta keep on fighting
But then again
It doesn't end

I'm heavily broken
And I don't know what to do
Can't you see I'm choking
And I can't even move
When there's nothing left to say
What can you do?
I'm heavily broken
And there's nothing I can do
And there's nothing I can do

Feels like I'm drowning
I'm screaming for air
(Screaming for air)
Louder I'm crying
And you don't even care

I'm heavily
And I don't know what to do
Can't you see I'm choking
And I can't even move
(What can I do)
When there's nothing left to say
What can you do
I'm heavily broken

I'm heavily broken
And I don't know what to do
Can't you see I'm choking
And I can't even move
When there's nothing left to say
What can you do
I'm heavily broken [Repeat: x3]

    My other FAV song on their cd.... Its slow and really cute..... she is broken hearted and she just simply doesnt know how to get over it .................... its like her world is ending and she doesnt know what to do.. she is trying to find hope to hold on to but she cant............ she is trying to scream it out but no one hears.. she is tyring to find sumone to hold on to but no one is there.... its like she has no saviour and she is desperately in need of one.... we all feel like that sumtimes... its like she just has nuthing to live for ~~~@&T MIlly)@(&)($@~~~**~

    The stress keeps building up on this girl and she needs a glimpse of hope.

    The song is not about a break-up. It isn't love related. It's about how messed up the world today is and how helpless they feel as young people in making anything right. Jess told fans the meaning of the song herself.

    The beauty of this song is you can interperate it into your own way. The live version is awesome. And I love playing it on acoustic guitar. :)

    I think this song could be like what a girl is feeling inside after something like what happened in when it all falls apart. The girl wants the guy, he doesn't want her, she goes crazy...then she's heavily broken and don't know what to do...yep....it's like a puzzle piece...lol

    This is my 2nd fav song on the CD (Nobody Wins being the first). I don't think it's about a guy, because I can relate to the song. I think it's basically, all of sudden, her world is crashing down on her, and she has nothing to believe in. The line where she says "louder I'm crying and you don't even care"...I don't believe she's talking about a specific person. I think it's aimed towards everyone in her life at the moment.

    i think its about... how the girls feel, everyone is mean to one another and everything could end tomorrow and the ppl wasted there lives judging eachother and don't care about how thier making ppl feel.

    one of my favourite songs. to me it means, everey day she wants change. and nothing ever happens. the same long day every day. and shes sick of all the energy she has to put into things. to me it reminds me of me and my friends. she says shes sick of all the hating. highschool is a bitchy place. the cliques never end. and it can break you, you get into dilemmas every day, theres nothing you can do, and all she wants is something stable to cling to. but shes almost giving up on trying because shes so broken she doesnt think she can be fixed.

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

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.
Album art
Amazing
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.
