Like a grain on the beach
Like a star in the sky
Far too many to count,
With the eye
They will see you.

Go ahead, walk on by
You don't know im alive
Maybe one day you'll find
You should open your eyes
You don't know me

(chorus)
Your the one who looks right through me
Now your saying that you knew me
When i was invisible
And your the one who walks right through me
Now your saying that you knew me
When i was invisible

Little things that i know
Try to hard not to rush
Giving in, letting go
Of the world we know
They won't see you
Push it down, lose the taste
We don't think its a waste
We don't need to believe every word they say now(they say now)
They don't know me

(chorus)

It's so easy to be lost
But baby, your my love

Whoa whoa, do you recognize me
Whoa, whoa, do you know who i am
Whoa, whoa, do you see me now [x2]

(chorus)

Im invisible (x2)

    Punk Rock? Please. Her entire career is circled around being the "ugly, pathetic sister of Jessica". Why make a career out of that? Seriously, that's just embarrassing.

    She sounds and looks stunning (I was also surprised by the six pack) though she kept a bit of punk in the wrestling thing. I also prefer her old style, but it's better than the persona in her last two music videos ('Boyfriend' and 'L.O.V.E') My friend thought this was inspired by the Princess Diaries! I disagree, but I guess it could be used. It seems that people who ignored Ashlee before are pretending to like her now that she's famous. Terrific lyrics.

    i think this song is really interesting... she's singing about someone who had ignored her all her life (while she was "invisible") and then as soon as she became famous, they started name-dropping and sucking up to her. it's definitely an improvement on some of her earlier stuff, although i've kinda lost respect for ashlee since she seems to be trying to make herself into jessica.

    she has had a nosr job i think?!

    anyways this song is really amazing. i think its about the people who ignord her before she was famous and 'known' but as soon as she came into the limelight they all pretended they've always been there for her.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
