Every night I ask myself,
why do I want nobody else?
Told you not to come,
I'm not the lonely one,
Told you not to come,
and I'm not the only one here.

When you come you show up late,
there are so many things about you I hate.
Told you not to come,
told you not to come.
Told you not to come,
and I'm not the only one here.

Girl, I told you I don't wander 'round the front door,
Girl, I told you I don't wanna see your face no more.
Told you not to come,
I'm not the lonely one,
Told you not to come,
and I'm not the only one here.

I'm not the only one here.

I'm not the only one here.

Told you not to come,
told you not to come.
Told you not to come,
I'm not the only one.

Every night I ask myself,
why do I want nobody else?
Told you not to come,
told you not to come.
Told you not to come,
I'm not the lonely one.

I'm not the lonely one.

Told you not to come,
told you not to come.
Now, slow down,
It's not over yet,
It's not over yet!

Every night I ask myself,
why do I,
why do I,
why do I want nobody else, nobody else?

When you come you show up late,
there are so many, there are so many.
Told you not to come,
I'm not the lonely one.
Told you not to come,
you think I'm the lonely one?
You think I'm the lonely one?
You think I'm the lonely one?
I'm not the only one here.
I'm not the only one here.
I'm not the only one here.
I'm not the only one here.
I'm not the only one here.
I'm not the only one here.
I'm not the only one here.
I'm not the only one here.
I'm not the only one here.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.

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.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
