Speedhorn

Noisettes

I was standing on the corner of my dream
Faces getting hotter
Temperature is rising up inside of my soul
Like a madman's daughter.
The time is right and so am I
Come and fly into the night sky brother, oh.

Is there nothing I can do
To make you smile
Nothing I can borrow
Nothing I can beg or steal
To change your minds way
Cause I feel out of order
Name your price, I'll pay it twice
Roll the dice, would you really die for another?

Be my speedhorn
Fuel my raging heart
Oh my lover
Come on feel the spark
See I won't bite
See that girl can bark
All I want to do is be the one you love, oh yeah
Only want to be the one you love, yeah
All i want to do, yeah!

Be my speedhorn
Fuel my raging heart
Oh my lover
You make me feel so
Like I could be far
Oh my lover

I am laughing but I'm fraying at the seams
Can't control the holler
Temperature is rising as the story unfolds
Lost my friend to the water
On my grave, next to my name
Go say: "She loved, she lost,
Yet never ceased to be amazed"

There is something you can do
To make me smile
Don't wait 'til tomorrow
Pressure can be swallowed
See cause she lost her heart
Diving in for another

You named your price, I paid it twice
There's no more dice and now
You're taking the piss

Be my speedhorn
Fuel my raging heart
Oh my lover
She'll cut your body parts
See I won't bite
They say that bitch can bark

All I want to do is be the one that you love, whoa yeah
Oh my love the one you love
Never wanna be the one you lost
All I wanna do, yeah

Be my speedhorn
Fuel my raging heart
Be my speedhorn oh yeah,
Be my speedhorn
Fuel my raging heart
Oh my lover

Losing control now
Who's in control now
Losing control
I was on a roll now
Losing control now
Who's in control now
Losing control
See now I was on a roll now
I'm losing control

Be my speedhorn
Fuel my raging heart
Oh my lover see you got the spark
Why don't you be my speedhorn
Fuel my raging heart
Oh my lover, oh you got the spark
Be my speedhorn, oh my love

You make me roll
I loose control
You loose control
I loose control
Loose con-trol, loose con-trol
Oh I loose control
Be the one in heart

    I hope this does not get deleted...love this song! Can't remember what I said before but it seems about a triangle and how one person is too destructive

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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.

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.

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.

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.
