Caked up and faked up
She's obsessed with the outside
Nothing earned, too afraid to fail
So she led a hollow life of void of insight
Loving what you see, but you fear what you think
'Cause of your mind and your body, there's a missing fucking link
That leaves you vulnerable, susceptible to pain
You're a garden of potential submerged in the rain

True beauty can't be seen with the eyes

Armed
Armed with a mind
I'm gonna strengthen my action with thought
Armed with a mind
Make use of the gift that I got
Armed with a mind
And walk fearless 'cause I'm armed with a mind
Armed with a mind
A weak offense when you step to this
Armed with a mind
Mind over matter is power over fists
Armed with a mind
I walk fearless 'cause I'm armed with a mind

I walk fearless
I walk fearless
With a mind far greater than your fucking fist

Spineless and mindless
You flex your muscles and not your fucking head
A deep man with a strong point made without one thoughtful word said
"Huff and puff", fierce fists will do the talking
Can't speak for yourself so your crew's with you walking
Tell me what's worth fighting for
And it better be something greater than an evening of the score

Boy, your true strength sleeps behind your eyes

Armed with a mind
I'm gonna strengthen my action with thought
Armed with a mind
Make use of the gift that I got
Armed with a mind
And walk fearless 'cause I'm armed with a mind
Armed with a mind
A weak offense when you step to this
Armed with a mind
Mind over matter is power over fists
Armed with a mind
I walk fearless 'cause I'm armed with a mind

With a mind
With a mind
And I'm walking fearless

It's the absent minded fool who's afraid to think
To extend an open hand, to dare to earn a thing
It's the gift inside your head you can't take for granted
'Cause an unexamined life is a seed unplanted
As the animals, they can't reason, but as humans we can
So are you just a wild animal or a rational man?
Your body takes you nowhere, might does not make right
There's a gift inside your head called your mind

    this is song is what everyone hear is saying about how some girls focus way to much on their appearance and what they do to get attention when all a true man looks for in a woman is the pure beauty inside them. and to the second verse the kids that believes since their in a crew they are the shit but when it comes down to it they all are cowards cuz they cant fend or defend themselves and have to people to back them up.

    and to anyone who believes not being straightedge means you cant be into hardcore needs to go back to the days of black flag, minor threat, 7 seconds, and the minutemen and see that true hardcore is about staying true to yourself and not going with everyone else just to look cool. in no way am i straightedge i smoke pot everyday, i drink a good amount, and i am addicted to cigarrettes but i chose all this on my own noone else has told me to do anything but i am still a moral person with principles. if your straightedge in my opinion thats fuckin great but stay true and do it for yourself and nobody else cuz if you do it cuz your friends do then youve lost the whole meaning to the greatness of hardcore.

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.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

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.
