And away we go
And away we go
And away we go
And away we go

Holding on to broken hearts
Memories are what's left of us
You're trying to hard to be my friend

And I'm placing all our pictures
In these broken frames
To remind me to never fall in love again

I'm sorry, won't cut it for the rest of your life
Get over yourself and say goodbye
Hope you realize you threw away
The best thing that ever happened to you

Forget my name and forget my face
Hope you hit your head and your memory gets erased
So I never have to deal with you again

And away we go
And away we go
And away we go
And away we go

And you're falling faster than a shooting star
That you wished your own body on
So wake up to the sound of the radio
Crashing through your window
Through your window, through your window

I'm sorry, won't cut it for the rest of your life
Get over yourself and say goodbye
I hope you realize you threw away
The best thing that ever happened to you

Forget my name, forget my face
Hit your head and your memory gets erased
So I never have to deal with you again
Again, again

And away we go
Away we go
Away we go
Away we go, we go

I'm sorry, won't cut it for the rest of your life
Get over yourself and say goodbye
I hope you realize you threw away
The best thing that ever happened to you

Forget my name and forget my face
Hope you hit your head and your memory gets erased
So I never have to deal with you again, again

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.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.

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.
