Lights out!
Touch the walls and search for a rusty spike as sharp and rough as a heart
In a locked old ranch the hunting cries celerity so tuck up
The ruffles of your dress and get the dust out of your shoes
So come on!

Restless we run
Trying to grab each others hand
Inhaling the frequency of wrath
Breathless we escape
Trying to take this shot
Of filthy ginger and filthy blood from ghosts

And I could say
That I’m invisible
I cant deny two lives is what it takes
We’re taken in the masks of assassins
That will never share the sheets

Stop
Hear
My trot

Stop
Hear
My trot

Rude
What should we play?
Let’s get it on
With the handle gripped mark the stabs from 0 to death

What should we play?
Let’s throw it up
Chew the difference between despair and delicacy

And I could say
That I’m invisible
I can’t deny two lives is what it takes
We’re taken in the masks of assassins
That will never share the shell

Die with delay
Such a prize for me to hear your voice
Like poetry running icy at the wheel of ruin

I could have died again for you
I could have uagh!
I could have died again for you
We’ll never share the shelter!
I could have died again for you
I could have uagh!
I could have died again for you
We’ll never share the shell!

What should we play?
Lets get it on
With the handle gripped mark the stabs from 0 to death

What should we play?
Let’s throw it up
Chew the difference between despair and delicacy

Amounts of veils
Where I felt strong
Now desolate my charming thoughts

A change of pace
Kills you forever
Sweetie, bare the shock

I fought, I…
Fall! Fall! Fall! Fall!
Lights out!
Place your head on my chest and feel the rhythm stop beating
Lights on!

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”

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.

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.

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.
