Heavy night, it was a heavy night
Feels like we've come back from the dead
Heavy night, it was a heavy night
I cannot remember what I said to anyone

If we get up now we can catch the afternoon
Watch the under fifteens playing football in the park
Let's sit in St. Leonard's on this alcoholic day
We're doing the best with what we've got

I'll love you in the morning
When you're still hung-over
I'll love you in the morning
When you're still strung out
I'll love you in the morning

I work hard all week, and so do you
We deserve to let off some steam
Less orthodox, creeping
When we need to rage through this life

There might be ones who are smarter than you
That have the right answers, that wear better shoes
Forget about those melting ice caps
We're doing the best with what we've got

I'll love you in the morning
When you're still hung-over
I'll love you in the morning
When you're still strung out

When I'm with you I am calm
A pearl in your oyster
Head on my chest, a silent smile
A private kind of happiness

You see giant proclamations are all very well
But our love is louder than words

When I'm with you I am calm
A pearl in your oyster
Head on my chest, a silent smile
A private kind of happiness (I'll love you in the morning)

When I'm with you I am calm (I'll love you in the morning)
A pearl in your oyster (I'll love you in the morning)
Head on my chest, a silent smile (I'll love you in the morning)
A private kind of happiness (I'll love you in the morning)

When I'm with you I am calm (I'll love you in the morning)
A pearl in your oyster (I'll love you in the morning)
Head on my chest, a silent smile (I'll love you in the morning)
A private kind of happiness (I'll love you in the morning)

I'll love you in the morning
I'll love you in the morning
I'll love you in the morning
I'll love you in the morning
I'll love you in the morning

    its about love isnt it?? when its all stripped down and pure and private, and it feels like there's just you two people in the whole wide world... the line "I'll love you in the morning" is so heart-wrenching, and i cant fully explain. Its NOT like "I'll only love you in the morning" it's like "I'll still love you in the morning"... and if a love lasts one night, it lasts a whole lifetime.

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran

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.
