I can't believe it's been a year
Since I kissed my fears
On their salty lips and said to them
I love you all

I carried the weight of the world on my shoulders
For 20 years and look at me now

I've got something to say
About the last 12 months I've lived
I'm not the same kid I was when I was younger
I just thought you should know
I take a pill every day to help me deal with life

And oh, my god, I've last control
I stare at accidents in a sick attempt to feel at all

I carried the weight of the world on my shoulders
For 20 years and look at me now

I've got something to say
About the family that I've lost
I hope my mother and my father think
That they raised a healthy boy
Who needs the help of a shrink to even leave the house?

And oh, my god, I've lost control
I stare at accidents in a sick attempt to feel at all

I'm not the same kid I was when I was younger
I just thought you, I just thought you should know
I'm not the same kid I was when I was younger
I just thought you, I just thought you should know

I carried the weight of the world on my shoulders
For 20 years and look at me now and now, and now
I'm finding a way to forget everything that I know

I can't believe it's been a year
Since I kissed my fears on their salty lips
And said to them, 'I love you all'

Don't ask, just follow, repeat and swallow
Don't ask, just swallow them down your throat
Don't ask, just follow, repeat and swallow
Don't ask, just swallow them down your throat

My best friend is a man
With a lab coat and a grin
I hold my shaking hand
And he gives me medicine

It almost makes me feel at home
But they slowly steal my soul
I tell him I still feel alone
?Don't worry someday I promise you will feel whole?

And oh, my god, I've lost control
Of the only thing in life I had a hold of
And oh, my god, I've lost control
Of the only thing in life I had a hold of
And oh, my god, I've lost control
Of the only thing in life I had a hold of

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”

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.

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.

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.
