Nice Piece Of Art

FM Static

I've tried not to let anyone in until now
I guess conversations never allow
And I've been feeling like I'm on some sort of marry-go-round
And I know, I know, yeah I know, I know

And I've tried not to let anyone in until now
It took time for me to figure it out
And when I feel like I'm complacent with my head in the clouds
And I know, I know, yeah I know, I know

And every time I wonder what's real you make me feel
You make me feel like a lavender sweater
And I'm caught in bad weather, in my Volkswagen Jetta
You make me feel like a complete work of art
When I'm just falling apart a really nice piece of art

Dear God
(Art, art, art)
I hope you hear me
(Art, art, art)

And I've tried not to let anyone in until now
Misunderstandings are an easy way out
And I've been feeling all this pressure just to figure it out
And I know, don't know, yeah I know, don't know

And I know if I can stay strong I can make it
And try harder when I just can't take it
(Can't take it)
And when everything around me feels so broken and jaded
(Broken and jaded)
And I know, I know, yeah I know, I know

And every time I wonder what's real you make me feel
You make me feel like a lavender sweater
When I'm caught in bad weather, in my Volkswagen Jetta
You make me feel like a complete work of art
When I'm just falling apart a really nice piece of art

(Art, art, art)
It's kinda of warped, but it's picking up slowly
I don't know but I can if you'll show me
I guess sometimes it takes more than
Just fake conversations to feel like I know that

It's kinda hard when I'm planning for something
To get across this whole without jumping
I guess sometimes it takes more than
Just false information to find out who we are

You make me feel like a lavender sweater
And I'm caught in bad weather, in my Volks Wagon Jetta
You make me feel like a complete work of art
When I'm just falling apart a really nice piece of art

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

Bron-Y-Aur Stomp
Led Zeppelin
This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
