Help!
The air turns black,
The birds drop from the sky
This eagle has landed
I'm choking on your pride

And the walls are closing in
And you don't appreciate
That in my hands tonight
Is where your fate lies
Her face drains

(Stand) Stand up, take a bow you have
No reason to celebrate
(You're) You're lost in a labyrinth
Scream now it's not too late

Help!
The air turns black
The birds drop from the sky
This eagle has landed
I'm choking on your pride

And the walls are closing in
And you don't appreciate
That in my hands tonight
Is where your fate lies
Her face drains

(Stand) Stand up, take a bow you have
No reason to celebrate
(You're) You're lost in a labyrinth
Scream now it's not too late

Nothing seems to break the walls down
Break the walls, down
Nothing seems to break the walls down
Break the walls, down

We'll break the walls!
We'll break the walls!
We'll break the walls, down!

We'll break the walls!
We'll break the walls!
We'll break the walls, down!

Yeah, stand! Will he make it out?
I hope he makes it out!
He's gonna make it out!
He's gotta make it out!

(Stand) Stand up!

(You're) You're lost!

In a labyrinth!

    Yeah they do say about the Travelodge walls. But somehow I think they are just joking. Hah.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

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.

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.
