This city, so pretty
Under the moonlit skies, we'll be hanging like a cigarette
So stunning, start running
Tonight's like a knife, would you cut me with your kiss?
I bleed, red lips, you're unbelievable
Can't miss this chance to take you out, here's my invitation

Hello Brooklyn, hey LA
Take the streets all night
Cause we sleep all day
When the world comes crashing down
Who's ready to party?
Hello Brooklyn, hey LA
Coast to coast
I'll take you down in flames
Let the good times roll
We can let go
Everybody knows there's a party at the end of the world

Whoa, whoa, whoa, oh
Whoa, whoa, whoa, oh

This city, was your city
Heels on the sidewalk begging for a back beat
Don't worry, I fight dirty
Tonights like a right hook, knock you off your feet
I'll be yours truly unbelievable
Can't miss this chance to take you out, here's your invitation

Hello Brooklyn, hey LA
Take the streets all night
Cause you sleep all day
When the world comes crashing down
Who's ready to party?
Hello Brooklyn, hey LA
Coast to coast
I'll take you down in flames
Let the good times roll
We can let go
Everybody knows there's a party at the end of the world

Kiss it all goodbye
Tonight you've never been more alive
You're so alive
You're not afraid to die
And I can see it in your eyes
In your eyes

Hello Brooklyn, hey LA
Take the streets all night
Cause we sleep all day
When the world comes crashing down
Who's ready to party?
Hello Brooklyn, hey LA
Coast to coast
I'll take you down in flames
Let the good times roll
We can let go
Everybody knows there's a party at the end of the world

London, Tokyo, Boston, Frisco, DC, Chicago, Baltimore
(There's a party at the end of the world)
Toronto, Memphis, Rio, Dublin, Mexico, Paris, here we go
Everybody knows there's a party at the end of the world

    i think the

    'How long will ... Take the sheets all night Cause we sleep all day When the world comes crashing down Who's ... about it?'

    part, is actually

    'Hello Brooklyn, ...hate the light?... Take the streets all night Cause we sleep all day, When the world comes crashing down Who's ready to party?'

    kinda sounds like cobra starships 'the kids are all fucked up' [lyrics wise]

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.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

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.
