Will their children cry
When their mother dies
And in the autumn of their lives
Will they feel the same?
[reversed lyrics 2:03-2:22]
The longing for me
Comin' down like hail
Why did you leave me?
Come here inside
And tell me how
How in my final days
You found around
Your concern
The signal for us to end our lives
To wipe beneath the watches
And you wait forever
The night comes high
Your weakness
Storing trace on your eyes
So I left you alone
We all left you alone
[reversed lyrics 7:21-7:24]
Lock the children away from harm
They'll lock all your reason why
Seeking (?) with a dagger
Skin is blocked by the years of trial
You felt abandoned in the fog of flesh
Sitting in place from the dead
Awaiting the face of the moon to ascend
You follow the siren in your head
In your head
When their mother dies
And in the autumn of their lives
Will they feel the same?
[reversed lyrics 2:03-2:22]
The longing for me
Comin' down like hail
Why did you leave me?
Come here inside
And tell me how
How in my final days
You found around
Your concern
The signal for us to end our lives
To wipe beneath the watches
And you wait forever
The night comes high
Your weakness
Storing trace on your eyes
So I left you alone
We all left you alone
[reversed lyrics 7:21-7:24]
Lock the children away from harm
They'll lock all your reason why
Seeking (?) with a dagger
Skin is blocked by the years of trial
You felt abandoned in the fog of flesh
Sitting in place from the dead
Awaiting the face of the moon to ascend
You follow the siren in your head
In your head

I Can't Go To Sleep

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.
Head > Heels

“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.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
The backwards "satanic" message is obviously a joke. Akerfeldt is probably making fun of the hysteria that surrounded Led Zeppelin's "backwards satanic message". Akerfeldt probably got the idea from Tool (a band he is a self professed fan of) because they're always making tounge in cheek references to satan.
