Lend me your children to borrow
I just need to send them away
Long as the tears of sorrow
I promise will keep them safe
So sorry it didn't work out
You believe the liar in me
My god, my love, my life
My world, my lust, my rage

Agnostic, for the greater good
Where the good things seem to be
Few and far between
Conscious, loss of conscience
Pack the body on ice
Just to keep it numb
Now feel it
Blames a thing of the past
Threw away everything that I had
But robbing, for the last time
Stepping under my skin
(Cast in armor)

[Chorus]
The hate in me
Feeling so empty
The guilt I swallow
Grab the line
Skin the face
Step through me
I leave you hollow

Hollow!

Suffering, of the many dead
Running through anarchy
Running gate, the powers loathe
Helps a thing of the past
Hold the gun to your head
(The hammer falls)

[Chorus]

We're all dead, and we're lost the feeling
So dead, my heart, my life
As they threw it, lost in an instant
Soaring, in my eyes

[Chorus]

I'm pissed
Children

My god, my love, my life
My world, my lust, my grave

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.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental 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.
