It's a cold dark night
Hallows Eve upon the crest
In a parking lot of vampires
(in suits to look their best).
And the music
In these coffins made of gold
With friends and lovers freshly buried

Her beauty washes over me
So let us hide and we'll dance the night away
Kiss the rise of the sun then we'll melt away
That who we are:
Always searching,
Always searching for you.

In a white dress with no eyes
Black suit, red devil bow tie
the King and Queen are crowned Victorian
"Is this the last of our haunting?"
she says as she floats like an angel
"You will never know until you let me go, I'm hoping this will never end."

Her beauty washes over me
So let us hide and we'll dance the night away
Kiss the rise of the sun then we'll melt away
That's who we are
Always searching, always searching
For you.

    I think that everyone reads to much into these songs. Well... I think that they have meaning, but mostly they're stories. Awesome vampire stories. =] Hehe.

    It's a cold dark night Hallows Eve upon the crest In a parking lot of vampires (in suits to look their best). And the music In these coffins made of gold With friends and lovers freshly buried

    ^ This is the starting of the story, just telling the setting. A bunch of vampires on Halloween are getting togather for an occasion where they have to look their best.

    Her beauty washes over me So let us hide and we'll dance the night away Kiss the rise of the sun then we'll melt away That who we are: Always searching, Always searching for you.

    ^ I think the "her" is the queen in the next verse. she protects them because it's her duty and they don't have to worry and can dance. Obviously if the sun rises they'll... Do whatever vampires do when the sun rises (it depends on what you believe). Part of who vampires are are just beings who are always searching. What are they searching for? Maybe their queen? I'm not really sure.

    In a white dress with no eyes Black suit, red devil bow tie the King and Queen are crowned Victorian "Is this the last of our haunting?" she says as she floats like an angel "You will never know until you let me go, I'm hoping this will never end."

    I'm not sure what it means to be crowned victorian... It would probably help if I did... "is this the last of our haunting?" basically "are we done searching?" and "you will never know untill you let me go, I'm hoping this will never end" I'm not entirely possitive about.

    That's what I read into it. Sorry is this is really long.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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.

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.
Album art
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.
