God Forbid

Ghost Machine

There was a time when i could believe the future was bright and unjaded
Now things have changed and im not the same
everything clear slowly fading

God forbid, you should have to see things my way
God forbid, you should feel the same
God forbid, you should never walk in my shows
God forbid, you should never know my name
You will never know, you could never know the pain

Lines on my face scars on my soul
Running in place getting older
Everyones fake and nothing is real
If this is a game I surrender

God forbid you should have to see things my way
God forbid you should feel the same
God forbid you should never walk in my shows
God forbid you should never know hate
You will never know, you could never know

Lost here with you, lost here without you

God forbid, you should have to see things my way
God forbid you should feel the same
God forbid you should never walk in my shoes
God forbid you should never know
You should never know the pain
The pain

    ok, well after almost 2 years, iv gotten a new perspective on it, its some one saying GOD FORBID, you should see somthing my way for once, see it through my eyes and feel how i do, feel the pain i've gone through to get to where im at..and after its all said and done, you feel hollow because you gave so much, wasted so much time for that person an it was all for nothing because they refused to open there eyes

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/

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.
