For a thousand days
You've been staring away
Are you faint
Are you thinking
Crack a smile and wink
It doesn't scare me away

Hit the brakes
I feel like cruising with you too

So I gaze
In your eyes
And I wonder
Can you take me up
Your hands that I'm under
Come wake me up soon

Take a bow and wave
As we carry away
It was great
But I'm not leaving
Crack a smile and wink
It still doesn't scare me away

Hit the brakes
I feel like cruising with you, too

So I gaze in your eyes
And I wonder, can you take me up
Your hands that I'm under
Come wake me up

For a thousand days
We could get carried away
Are you in
Are you in
Are you in(are you in)
(I'd give anything)
(I'd give anything for you)

So I gaze in your eyes
And I wonder can you take me up
Your hands that I'm under
Come wake
So I gaze in your eyes
And I wonder can you take me up

    yea, except haze implies that you can't see clearly and the haze is what relates these two people (your haze that I'm under). this haze is an attraction that seems to be very revealing, or at least there is a promise that something will be revealed. there is trust and curiosity on chino's end but instead of being woken up he just seems to be being put to sleep. at first chino says (come and wake me up soon), and then (come and wake me up...)and then (come wake...) to me, this kind of seems like he his being lured toward some understanding, but into something that is all consuming. i think! this is the evil chino talks about, but im still not sure! especially about the 976.

    and i agree that this album is directed toward chi but i don't think all the songs are specifically about his circumstance. however, i do think he's had such an impact on the band that this album reflects the void of a lost friend. there is a lot of talk about sleep and feeling anxious, waiting and wanting for something to be revealed. it seems as if their lives have been put on a waking pause and until chi wakes up nothing will do

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.
