This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
A fire swept through
Everyone rushed for the door
Boards were used to carry the impaired
The rescuers had withdrawn
The building is virtually black now
That's what the witness said
I think about how I miss you
And I will remain
I think about how I miss you
A fire swept through
Everyone rushed for the door
Boards were used to carry the impaired
The rescuers had withdrawn
I think about how I miss you
And I will remain
I think about how I miss you
I think about how I miss you
I think about how I miss you
I think about how I miss you
I think about how I miss you
Everyone rushed for the door
Boards were used to carry the impaired
The rescuers had withdrawn
The building is virtually black now
That's what the witness said
I think about how I miss you
And I will remain
I think about how I miss you
A fire swept through
Everyone rushed for the door
Boards were used to carry the impaired
The rescuers had withdrawn
I think about how I miss you
And I will remain
I think about how I miss you
I think about how I miss you
I think about how I miss you
I think about how I miss you
I think about how I miss you

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.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
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.
The melody couldn't fit the song more perfectly. Very haunting, to tie in with the title. I had initially thought it was someone recalling a horrible event in their life, losing someone, and the memory of the deceased haunting them like a ghost. But the lyric "and I will remain" hints it is the ghost of the person who died recounting the event. Also, saying "the rescuers have withdrawn" implies that they are leaving this ghost behind. Great fucking song.
Good call tbarkerisafag. Terrible screen name but good attention to detail and interpretation. I agree!!! That one line "I will remain" says a lot.
such a cool haunting song of a ghost left in a burnt down building.
this song gives me incredibly strong feelings each time I listen to it. it's poetry.
This could be a metaphor for someone who had a catastrophic loss of someone important to them, whether by death or breakup. The fire is the event that culminated in this loss, the people rushing for the door are the fair-weather friends who fled the drama of it all, the burned-out building is the remains of the relationship that was, and the ghost is, ironically, the living person left behind in that wreckage of a relationship that's still very real and dear and present to them, even as that other person and their mutual friends are all already long departed.
