And so we meet herre again, old friend - welcome back to our journey´s end
Here at the keep of all darkest nights - where the source of your sorrow lies

All your nightmares - only worse - have become bitter truth for your infected mind
And nothing could save ysou from torture and grind - slowly fading - from your world
No more spring will thaw your frozen heart anymore - forever, forever, not anymore

Uncertain stumbling through the haze - thousand eyes staring at your face
A savage unintorupted chase - don´t expect any help from grace
Now that the gleam of your eyes went out - your frightened glance betrays rising doubt
About what soon is to come for you - bad fate, you can rely onto

Guardians of nightfall, lead me behind - the borders I´m loosing for the peace to find
Never meant to be a sinner in religious ways - "why the hell no one hears my prayers"
Portals of nightfall, open your front - and grand me entrance to the world beyond
But please don´t forsake my death-yearning sould - ... I hear the demons of embers call

Unbearable the burden gradual becomes - drags me down the maw, and deeper down below
My corpse aglowed a long time ago yet - while passing through the chambers of the dead
There arer no words to define alls this dismay - nothing you have known is destined to remain
When I made you inhale my toxid breath - for I am the everlasting death

Portals of nightfal, open your front - and grand me entrance to the world beyond
But please don´t forsake my death-yearning soul - ... I hear the demons of embers call

Just take a look around you my son - and be aware of the shades to come
Then you forget what the bible tought - consolation in rain be sought
So this will be your true fate, old friend - welcome back to your journey´s end
Here at the keep of all darkest nights - where the source of your sorrow lies

All your nightmares - only worse - have become bitter truth for your infected mind
And nothing could save you from torture and grind - slowly fading - from your world
No more spring will thaw your frozen heart anymore - forever, forever, not anymore

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

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.

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.

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.

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.
