Luft

Tocotronic

Die Luft ist so nutzlos um mich herum
So schön, vergeht jetzt ein Millenium
Ja, ich habe heute nichts gemacht
Ja, meine Arbeit ist vollbracht

Ich atme nun 4x

Genau wie jetzt, nur ein bisschen anders wird es sein
Sei schlau und kleb die Bilder ein
Ja, ich habe heute nichts gemacht
Ja, meine Arbeit ist vollbracht

Ich atme nun 4x

Und jetzt weiter im Text:

Neue Fehler warten
Steine liegen auf dem Weg
Ich leg sie rüber in den Garten
Warte bis es dunkel ist
Und ich seh die Schatten fliegen
Ich warte bis es dunkel ist

Das Nutzlose wird siegen
Das Nutzlose bleibt liegen
Also züchte ich mir Staub
Entschuldigung, das hab ich mir erlaubt

Und jetzt weiter im Text:

Neue Wege gehen
Ich weiß, ich werde jetzt, Jedem zur Verfügung stehen
Ich gehe, wenn der Tag beginnt
Und ich seh die Schatten fliegen
Ich gehe, wenn der Tag beginnt

Das Nutzlose wird siegen
Das Nutzlose bleibt liegen
Also laufe ich durch Laub
Entschuldigung, das habe ich mir erlaubt.

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.

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.

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.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
