利腕に現実をとり
もう片腕に道徳をかざし
胸の奥に愛を灯して
頭の中で天秤にかける
鬱蒼としげる闇の中
自分の影を隠すように
汚ねぇ算盤弾く音
鳴り響く世界よ止まれ

感情は邪魔になるだけの世界さ
撃ち殺してくれよ
天秤にかけたのは誰?
算盤で弾くのは誰?
ハーメルンの笛吹きは誰? 狼少年はいったい誰?
そんなのどうでもいいほど今
君を愛しているよ

花よ今咲き誇れ 僕に教えておくれ
今ここに生きる意味を 明日がくる理由を

利腕に欲望をもち
もう片腕に背徳を隠し
胸の奥に愛を閉ざせば
頭の中で聖者が笑う
空き地に咲く健気な花
降り注ぐ光を奪うビルがそびえ建ち
人々はそのビルに目を輝かせ
やがて花は呼吸を止めた
風が只 優しく撫でた
風だけが優しく撫でた

生きる事 其れは何も見えねぇ
闇の中をさ迷う様な
死ぬ事 其れもまた
闇で終りは決して始まりではない
だからこそ今闇を照らす
閃光になるよう生命燃やせ
輝きを放つんだ 生きてる証
儚く強く

花よ今咲き誇れ 君が教えてくれた
今ここに生きる意味を 明日がくるわけを

いつの日か死にゆく僕は
君に何ができるだろう
陽は昇り光を注ぐ永久に
この世界に

    LOVE this song! :D It's made of awesome. Been listening to it in the car a ton lately, never get tired of it. It's just so good, love the way "you na" is sung in the second to last verse.

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.

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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
