I didn't think that I had a debt to pay
Until they came to take what I had left away
You said you wouldn't put me to the test today
But I remember you saying that yesterday
There was a time when your mind wasn't out of control
Every memory and confession pouring out of your soul
Like these simple thoughts, you swallow them whole
Another lie, hard to follow, they follow you home
And like that
(Broken down, a victim of your crime)
This lie is so out of control
Every memory and confession pouring out of your soul
And like that
(Broken down, a victim of your...)

Lies
You hide behind your lies
You don't know why
You crossed the line
You're wrapped up inside,
Your Lies
You hide behind your lies
You're lost inside that cold disguise
Behind your lies...

Hard to know what you thought I might say
Seems like we would never talk the right way
Every other minute I'm far from my place
A job without pay, I thought you might say
So, I'm guessing that you probably know
When your insides hollow then you ought to be cold
Like the pure thoughts you stole, it's going to swallow you whole
Another lie, hard to follow, it followed you home
And like that
(Broken down, a victim of your...)

Lies
You hide behind your lies
You don't know why
You crossed the line
You're wrapped up inside,
Your Lies
You hide behind your lies
You're lost inside that cold disguise
Behind your lies...

You're faking, you're mistaken
If you think I'm taking what's pouring out your soul
Forsaken, what would take me
Everything about my knowing soul
Broken down, a victim of you
Faking, you're mistaken
If you think I'm taking what's pouring out your soul
Broken down, a victim of you're
Lies

You hide behind your lies
You don't know why
You hide behind your lies
You don't know why
You hide behind...
You're wrapped up inside

Your lies
You hide behind your lies
You don't know why
You crossed the line
You're wrapped up inside,
Your Lies
You hide behind your lies
You're lost inside that cold disguise
Behind your lies...

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.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

Midnight
Ed Sheeran
“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms. “Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
