And we walked a thousand days,
there was nothing more to find.
Million peoples in our way.
Million ways to lose our minds.

Met a girl the other day,
didn't know what I should say.
Saw myself inside her eyes,
there was nothing more to find.

We're lying. We've lied to you.
we've lied to make our point of view.

Hello Captain, I have faith,
more than those who follow me.
If we strike them through their hearts,
then their minds will set them free.

Met a girl the other year,
didn't know who I should be.

We're lying. We've lied to you.
we've lied to make our point of view.
We're lying. We've lied to say,
we've learned to lie our lives away.

Wonder what makes you change your mind.
Wonder what makes you keep on spinning.
Wonder what makes you wanna cry.
Wonder what makes your life worth living.

Wonder what goes on in your brain.
Wonder what goes on in your kitchen.

Wonder what makes you, well..

We're lying. We've lied to you.
we've lied to make our point of view.
We're lying. We've lied to say,
that's right..

1, 2, 3, 4

We're lying. We've lied to you.
we've lied to make our point of view.
We're lying. We've lied to say,
we've learned to lie our lives away.

We're lying. We've lied to you.
we've lied to make our point of view.
We're lying. We've lied to say,
we've learned to lie our lives away.

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.

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,

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.

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.
