I want to fit
I've got to get into it
Don't make no sense
To hide behind anything
Oh how these precious things
Their time is wearing thin
I'd make a mould of me
To make a mockery
I'd make a mould of me
To make a mockery

Let a little light (x2)
Let a little light fall on

Another scar
(Hey)
To emphasise who you are
A second skin
Label I might've been
Oh fill this loving cup
Might have to use it up
To take the half of me
Would wreck the symmetry
To take the half of me
Would wreck the symmetry

Let a little light (x2)
Let a little light fall on
Ha ha ha ha ha
Let a little light
Let a little light fall on
Ha ha ha ha ha

I want to fit
I've got to get I've got to get into it
I've got to get I've got to get into it

Let a little light fall on
I'd like to get a little gone
Let a little light fall on
You're not alone
I'd like to get a little gone
La La La
I want to fit
Let a little light fall on
You're not alone
I'd like to get a little gone
La La La La

    All the lyrics about tight fits here say to me that it's about fitting in and being popular, and I love Tahita's voice in this song as well

    I thought the lyrics were more literal to the song's title. Girls have become encouraged to fit into clothes that are way too small, like size zero.. and i also agree that the lyrics also point towards the need for individuals to be accepted..symbolising conformity.

    lyrics like; "To make a mould of me" "another scar / to emphasise who you are" and "like to get a little gone" symbolise one's yearning to 'tightly fit' into a stereotype.. small, size zero beings...

    the song represents this day and age.. how society is so judgemental about looks and physicality..

    this song must be about fitting in and individuals i think its meaning from the singers point of view that she wants to fit in but is really an individual person

    i think she sounds a little like madonna in this song. especially near the end. and that's definitely not a bad thing. i think it suits tahita more than it suits madonna. :)

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.

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.

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.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
