Hold diamonds to the sun
Sparkling misconception

"We're the ones that aren't afraid to die", ashes
After this battle we laugh at the thought of innocence
"Remorse!", I scream for
Pride roses platinum gold rubies
A transparent portrait

The grave widens and the masses are mindlessly
Marching to the necropolis
There is no mystery here
Nothing to grasp but adjacent bodies

The cessation movement is synchronized
Emotional poorness cannot be hidden by ivory
We can't let this come between us, here I lie myself down
I surrender at what I've done, I'm ashamed

On this raised platform
I compose the memoir of unworthiness
Drunken with the spirits of Godlessness
Spirits of doom, devil jaws on your throat
Onward period die, emeralds hold no hope
(Hope, yeah)

    I think chatoalan24 has de-constructed it pretty well there, here's a few other points people may find interesting: The line "The grave widens and the masses are mindlessly marching to the necropolis." I believe is a clear biblical reference to Matthew 7:13-14.

    13 “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. 14 Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.

    It speaks of how it is easy and that the majority of people 'go with the flow' rather than following the more difficult path of Christ.

    This song, even if you cant see at first, are very scriptual. "We can't let this come between us. Here I lie myself down. I surrender. At what i've done, i'm ashamed. " basically, hes admitting his sins to the Lord.

    Most, if not all of their songs are based on their faith in the Lord.

    This song is basicly the whole bands point, "rubies hold no hope", just anti-materialism.

    The part where he screams "Pride Roses, Platinum gold rubies" is the best part in the song. This song is absolutely amazing.

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,

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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.
