I?m scared to look down
Never been so high
And I can?t look up with a closing mind
I?m scared to be touched
I don?t like the feel
It?s way too close
Way too real

Inside it?s raining
It never lets up
I know I?m crazy
Crazy enough to know that I?ll find a way to make this all go away

I?m scared to be me
Because I look like you
I don?t want to be somebody I never knew
I?m scared to go out
I?m so far in
I hear it?s nice
But I?ve never been

Inside it?s raining
It never lets up
I know I?m crazy
Crazy enough to know that I?ll find a way to make this all go away

I found my only out, so just forget about talking me down
I?ll put this fire out and stop this burning

Inside it?s raining
It never lets up
I know I?m crazy
Crazy enough to know that I?ll find a way to make this all go away

Inside it?s raining
Inside it?s raining
Inside it?s raining
Inside it?s raining

    My Opinion

    Anyone heard the new version of the song with Adam Gontier? It's fantastic.

    This is a definite fantastic song though. Good lyrics.

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

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
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
