There are two stars in my sky
And they both burn with amber light
And my world gone astray
Don't you go away

There are two stars in your eyes
Burning brighter than ever tonight
Saying oh, I wish I could stay
But youre gonna go away

But don't, don't look away
Oh my stars, oh theyre gonna fade
And like the bightest star that I see in the sky
You turn my night into day
Dont you go away, go away

What can I do to convince you to stay
All of my days?
Dont you go away, go away

Well there were two stars in my sky
And like the brightest star of them all she had to fall
All I remember is her walking away
She's gone away
But don't, don't stay away
I can't last that long in this world
All alone without your flame

You're the brightest star that I see in the sky,
You turn my night into day
Don't you go away, go away
What can I do to convince you to stay, oh my day
Don't you go away, go away
Yeah she's gone away
I don't don't want her to stay away
Oh my day, she'll come back to me
But she's gone
Yes she's gone, gone away.

    Yet another Mandy song. I can tell. This song is most likely telling the story of the time Mandy went away to Oklahoma.

Bron-Y-Aur Stomp
Led Zeppelin
This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

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.

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.
