They keep playing sad songs on the radio
And I feel like I'm so alone
On this fifteen hour drive
And all the while I tell myself to just believe
'Cause nobody can give so much and never get anything
(Never get anything)

Everyone I used to know
Says they don't know what I've become
But I'm still the same, not much has changed
I still know where I came from

I fell asleep with the lights on
And I can see that you're the first one in a long time
That had some faith in me
(Have faith in me)
Tell my friends we won't be long
The Florida sun begs me to come back home
And it feels like I'm ready for anything
If you can wait for me

And all the while I say too much of what I think
And I can't remember what it's like to find meaning in anything
For the life of me
Everyone I used to know
Says they don't know what I've become
But I'm still the same, not much has changed
I still know where I came from
And all I ever wanted was so far from what I need
I'll write my songs, they'll sing along
And hope time heals everything

I fell asleep with the lights on
And I can see that you're the first one in a long time
That had some faith in me
(Have faith in me)
Tell my friends we won't be long
The Florida sun begs me to come back home
And it feels like I'm ready for anything
If you can wait for me

This is all I have
This is all I have
It's my life
This is all I have
This is all I have

I fell asleep with the lights on
And I can see that you're the first one in a long time
That had some faith in me
(Have faith in me)
Tell my friends we won't be long
The Florida sun begs me to come back home
And it feels like I'm ready for anything
If you can wait for me

I fell asleep with the lights on (lights on)
And I can see that you're the first one in a long time
That had some faith in me
(Have faith in me)
Tell my friends we won't be long (won't be long)
The Florida sun begs me to come back home
And it feels like I'm ready for anything
If you can wait for me

    The correct lyrics are "The Florida sun begs me to come back home." NOT "Before its time for me to come back home." ADTR is originally from Ocala Fl. ^ Anyone who knows ADTR knows that.

    Fave band, ever. <3

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.

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.

American Town

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.
