This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
These sweat soaked sheets
They cling to me
To the backs of my knees
I'm wondering why I didnt try to leave
The words you spoke
They made me choke on the air that I breathe
I'm out of luck and now I'm stuck here
But you're my mistake
And it's far too late to turn back now so pull me out
I've fallen down again
You're my mistake
And it's far too late to turn back now so pull me out
I've fallen down again
I've fallen down again
The void within
Plugged up with sin is making me sick
I realized that I despize me
The world shut down
I pushed it out when I should have run
You stole my youth but you're not the truth at all
But you're my mistake
And it's far too late to turn back now so pull me out
I've fallen down again
You're my mistake
And it's far too late to turn back now so pull me out
I've fallen down again
I swear to Christ I'll fix my life
Just give me strength so I can fight this
'Cause you're my mistake
And it's far too late to turn back now so pull me out
I've fallen down again
You're my mistake
And it's far too late to turn back now so pull me out
I've fallen down again
I've fallen down again
I've fallen down again
I've fallen down again
I've fallen down again
They cling to me
To the backs of my knees
I'm wondering why I didnt try to leave
The words you spoke
They made me choke on the air that I breathe
I'm out of luck and now I'm stuck here
But you're my mistake
And it's far too late to turn back now so pull me out
I've fallen down again
You're my mistake
And it's far too late to turn back now so pull me out
I've fallen down again
I've fallen down again
The void within
Plugged up with sin is making me sick
I realized that I despize me
The world shut down
I pushed it out when I should have run
You stole my youth but you're not the truth at all
But you're my mistake
And it's far too late to turn back now so pull me out
I've fallen down again
You're my mistake
And it's far too late to turn back now so pull me out
I've fallen down again
I swear to Christ I'll fix my life
Just give me strength so I can fight this
'Cause you're my mistake
And it's far too late to turn back now so pull me out
I've fallen down again
You're my mistake
And it's far too late to turn back now so pull me out
I've fallen down again
I've fallen down again
I've fallen down again
I've fallen down again
I've fallen down again

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.
Amazing

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.

Midnight
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms.
“Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
I always thought this song was kinda "christian"
it sounds like shes regretful of "giving herself" to some guy...
wats anyone else's take?
I can see where you're coming for, but to me it means something else:
I see her as seeing an old boyfriend and she ends up sleeping with him. He was probablly her first love and ended badly and here she is regretting that she had sex with him. I think she's more dissapointed with herself than anything because she promised herself that she would never do this again but she is anyway. So she's praying to God that he'll get her through this.
that's just my opinion.
When I hear this song, it makes me think of a guy that she may have initially hooked up with for fun but eventually started to fall for him.
"The void within Plugged up with sin Is making me sick I realized that I despise me"
She's upset at herself for falling for this guy, but she's so far deep into their "relationship" that she knows it's going to be difficult for her to get over him. She wants so desperately to move on.
"I swear to christ my life Just give me strength so I can fight this"
Her mistake was starting something with this guy and letting him into her life.
I forgot to mention that she let this guy into her life because she was feeling lonely. Having sex with him temporarily took care of any loneliness or "void" in her life. She knows that it's wrong to have sex with this guy just because she's feeling alone, and afterwards she gets upset and "sick" with herself for doing so.
This is one of my top 5 all time favorite songs. I fell in love with Michelle Featherstone because of this song and was able to discover all of her great music. Then we became facebook friends and actually chatted!! She’s super nice and a true talent!
I first heard this song on “The Hills” and it fitted perfectly to Lauren’s situation at the time. Later on, I found it very close to things that were going on in my personal life as well. That regretful feeling that you get when you were with the wrong person for so long… how you can’t let go even when you know it’s wrong… and how you end up hating yourself for being so weak. In the end she promises herself strength… enough strength to quit whoever she’s clinging to and stop hurting herself.
At the time I heard this song I was sleeping with someone who I loved, but didn’t love me back and just used me whenever I was convenient. It meant so much to me because of what I felt, until I realized how degrading it was. This song helped me understand how I would eventually feel if that kept going… I love it..
