Watching anvils falling all around
And they break our bones when they hit the ground
The siren screams without a sound
So we numb ourselves with drink and drown
Got to clock in, bar code and name
Zeros and ones compose the game
And the roof's on fire but stops the rain
So clench your fist enjoy the pain
Think back to the ways of yesterdays
The "I" in team raised renegades
In punk rock clubs and razorblades
Where throwaway kids scream serenades

We lost control again
We lost control again
We lost control
Gotta find a way to make amends,
Rewrite the end ,
Take back what time has stole

We are the angry
The innocent
We are the hungry
The discontent
We are the marquee
The one percent
We are the bourgeoisie of arguments

Dropping down a well that time forgot
With scars that show that we care a lot
In the sky we dreamt like a juggernaut
Of the things we'd do and what we sought but
One by one we fall the same
How much to lose, not much to gain
So have your hope hop another train and
Bleach yourslef but the stain remains
Think back to the ways of yesterdays
When we never even had to get paid to play
Had a backpack filled with things to say
But the words have all been thrown away

We lost control again
We lost control again
We lost control
Gotta find a way to make amends,
Rewrite the end,
Take back what time has stole

We are the angry
The innocent
We are the hungry
The discontent
We are the marquee
The one percent
We are the bourgeoisie of arguments

We won't wait
We're the lost but we're found
We can't wait
Alarms are calling
We won't wait
We're not the fallen
The underground, you won't recognize us now

We are the angry
The innocent
We are the hungry
The discontent
We are the marquee
The one percent
We are the bourgeoisie of arguments

We lost control again
We lost control again
We lost control
Got a lost hope requiem
And we're wreckin' 'em
There's no use settling

So when will all the waiting end?
If we don't pretend like a shot gun awakening
To blow off the pinned-down limb,
Shed your skin cause they is shuddering

So tie off the bleeding end and start again
The streets are barreling
With no reason to reinvent our discontent
The sound grows deafening

We want control again
We want control again
We want control
Gotta find a way to make amends,
Rewrite the end,
Take back what time has stole

We are the angry
The innocent
We are the hungry
The discontent
We are the marquee
The one percent
We are the bourgeoisie of arguments

We won't wait
We're the lost but we're found
We can't wait
Alarms are calling
We won't wait
We're not the fallen
The underground, you won't recognize us now

We are the angry
The innocent
We are the hungry
The discontent
We are the marquee
The one percent
We are the bourgeoisie of arguments

We want control again
We want control again
We want control
The underground, you won't recognize us now

We want control again
We want control again
We want control
The underground, you won't recognize us now

    I don't get what they mean by "we are the marquee". What is that?

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

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.

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.
