Always Love You Never Leave You

Archie Star

And we all die young,
And our bodies grow old,
And I’m still eighteen in the heart but not the bones,
Let that pillowcase lie under my face,
And no, cigarettes could ever take your place,

This all just took my fucking place,
So…

And our bed stays warm,
On the side where you left it,
It’s got our names hanging up upside that door,
Trust me I’ve got this picture perfect situation,
Drowning in roses and waiting on you baby,
Drowning in roses and waiting on you baby,

Whatever happened to always love you never leave you,
And always these pillowcases need you,
Slow dancing on rooftop dreams,
And it kills my eyes to see,
These people we could
So…Be.
These people we could be,
Ohhhh,

And our hearts burn bright,
Let’s set them on fire,
There’s no rain that could fucking flicker out my flame,
I’ve got, I’ve got this picture perfect situation,
Drowning in roses and waiting on you baby,

Always love you never leave you,
You told me
And don't leave these pillowcases need you,
Slow dancing on rooftop dreams,
And it kills my eyes to see,
These people we could,
These people we could
So…Be.
These people we could be,
Ohhhh,

Everything you want, you give it, you got it now,
Everything.

You want it, you got it,
You want it, you got it
Cause I’m drowning in roses waiting on you baby,
Cause I’m drowning in roses waiting on you baby,
Whatever happened to always love you never leave you,
It’s lonely, cause baby I still need you,
Baby, I still need you,
It kills my eyes to see,
These people we could be…

    It says "AND DON'T LEAVE these pillowcases need you." Not and always.

    Anyway, I think it's about a married couple, one is considering leaving & the other is reminding them how much they love them & don't want them to go. They're they saying they would shower them with flowers, love, etc if they stay. Also, they're saying how they said they would alwayslovethem & neverleavethem. :D

    Cute song, amazing band.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.

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.

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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
