You sink your teeth in.
Bite the blood that drains the life inside of me and fills your soul eith love and hate and all those things you need to breathe.
My body dies, but still my soul remains eternally in search of Caspian waves and shallow graves.
Explain,why me?
This nightmare won't last long.
Are you scared?
So sing this song.
I'm right there by your side.
Tonight we've got a chance.
I watched the sky bleed grey with see-through shades of violent, bloody stains and felt the evil prime and wicked start a course straight through my veins.
I'm so alive, my skin so cold and fake.
I close my eyes,
I know that now's the time to take my chance with death and realize.
Sunrise, sunset, will you wash away the rain?
Sunrise, sunset can you wash away the pain?
This nightmare won't last long.
Are you scared?
So sing this song.
I'm right there by your side.
Tonight we've got a chance.
This nightmare won't last long.
Are you scared?
So sing this song.
I'm right there by your side.
Tonight we've got a chance.
So mute and beautiful to me,
a promise kept on high,
an angelic look at life through open eyes.
Don't be scared, we'll make it work.
We're right on time, don't make things worse.
Now I'm right there by your side.
(Sunrise) I will avenge.
(Sunset) I can't pretend.
(Sunrise) I won't forget this vain.
(Sunset) attempt and promise kept.
Just one more night to make up for the loss of love and time.
Here comes the sun to rid this world of see-through blood and swollen light.
Sunrise, sunset, will you wash away the rain? Sunrise, sunset, can you wash away the pain?
This nightmare won't last long.
Are you scared?
So sing this song.
I'm right there by your side.
Tonight we've got a chance.
This nightmare won't last long.
Are you scared?
So sing this song.
I'm right there by your side.
Tonight we've got a chance.
The last sunrise.

    My Opinion

    Love the song. I absolutely adore the fact they pay homage to the musical "Fiddler on the Roof" with the "Sunrise, Sunset" lines. Fuck yes.

    Sometimes life looks like a nightmare, but it won't last long, there are always people who care and want to help you, don't give up, the people that care about you will help you make it trough the nightmare

    i agree of inahailofbullets view of the video of this, but the song is about addiction and abuse. Te song in talking in metaphores for the real meaning. The abuse come in the part about being mute and beautiful. It means she beautiful although she's scarred for life because of years of abuse. But yea this song rules!

    ok had this song on repeat for ages now....i love it! i can definetly see the interview with a vampire thing it fits in perfectly. The part where Lois watches his last sunrise before becoming a vampire....it's actually kinda sad. Love this song!

    Emo doesn't exist, only mindless, trend following children.

    Aiden are good and would kick you ass.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

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.
