This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
When the days go drifting backwards
And old friends' voices chew the air
Well, the shells make my get seasick
I know the ocean isn't really living there
And pendulum doesn't swing for passion
And the even whore can't make those stubborn hands freeze
But sometimes just a soft light lit in a bedroom
Can bring a tired traveller to his knees
She said if you come to me
I'll make it easy
If you come to me
I'll make it easy for you
So when you come to me
You can breathe freely
And I'll let you stand a while on my side
Stand a while on my side
Stand a while on my side of the blues
Well, praise be to the rolling graveyards
And to the heroes with their necklaces of seaweed
Cinderella's got to be home before midnight
So St. Christopher don't ever have to leave
And here's a toast to all the furious seasons
That went and stole the blood out of baby's cheeks
Though she was a one who always come so close to smiling
She made crying seem like Christmas Eve
And she said if you come to me
I'll make it easy
If you come to me
I'll make it easy for you
So when you come to me
You can breathe freely
And I'll let you stand a while on my side
Stand a while on my side
Stand a while on my side of the blues
Well tattoo body wrote himself into a fable
The story of the pine needle and the sheep
They found him hibernating beneath the coffee table
It turned out it was actually a human sleep
And the trees forgave the fire that went on burning
'Til hope was all it left when the smoke cleared
I'll forgive her body for deserting
Soon as I recall why mine's still here
She said if you come to me
I'll make it easy
If you come to me
I'll make it easy for you
So when you come to me
You can breathe freely
And I'll let you stand a while on my side
Stand a while on my side
Stand a while on my side of the blues
So the days launch forward, leaving memories
Dragging swollen clouds across a robin's egg
Like the begger, I know I'm bound to get clean eventually
If I just keep walking up and down the street
Up and the down the street
And old friends' voices chew the air
Well, the shells make my get seasick
I know the ocean isn't really living there
And pendulum doesn't swing for passion
And the even whore can't make those stubborn hands freeze
But sometimes just a soft light lit in a bedroom
Can bring a tired traveller to his knees
She said if you come to me
I'll make it easy
If you come to me
I'll make it easy for you
So when you come to me
You can breathe freely
And I'll let you stand a while on my side
Stand a while on my side
Stand a while on my side of the blues
Well, praise be to the rolling graveyards
And to the heroes with their necklaces of seaweed
Cinderella's got to be home before midnight
So St. Christopher don't ever have to leave
And here's a toast to all the furious seasons
That went and stole the blood out of baby's cheeks
Though she was a one who always come so close to smiling
She made crying seem like Christmas Eve
And she said if you come to me
I'll make it easy
If you come to me
I'll make it easy for you
So when you come to me
You can breathe freely
And I'll let you stand a while on my side
Stand a while on my side
Stand a while on my side of the blues
Well tattoo body wrote himself into a fable
The story of the pine needle and the sheep
They found him hibernating beneath the coffee table
It turned out it was actually a human sleep
And the trees forgave the fire that went on burning
'Til hope was all it left when the smoke cleared
I'll forgive her body for deserting
Soon as I recall why mine's still here
She said if you come to me
I'll make it easy
If you come to me
I'll make it easy for you
So when you come to me
You can breathe freely
And I'll let you stand a while on my side
Stand a while on my side
Stand a while on my side of the blues
So the days launch forward, leaving memories
Dragging swollen clouds across a robin's egg
Like the begger, I know I'm bound to get clean eventually
If I just keep walking up and down the street
Up and the down the street

No Surprises
Radiohead
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.

“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
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.
horror, not whore, i think.
