Live It Up

Lee Dewyze

Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
La da da da da da d
Umm

You walk on by
Don't blink an eye
It's kinda funny
Got me wonderin' why
Maybe I'm just not your type
Or maybe I'm your Mr. Right
I can be your romeo
You could be my Juliet
Maybe I'm the one that you'll never forget
I know that I'm just passing through
But I might stay for you

You've only got one life, one life to live
I wanna give it everything I got
Who knows this might be it for us
So why don't we
Live it up,
Live it up darlin'
Give it up
My heart is starvin'
Live it up, give it up
Oh oh

Excuse me miss I don't mean to stare
You got me hypnotized with your long, brown hair
And your hazel eyes and your don't care smile
Would it be rude to ask if I could stay a while
I don't mean to intrude I had to say "hello"
'Cause if I never did then I would never know
I may be just passing through
But I might stay for you

You've only got one life, one life to live
I wanna give it everything I got
Who knows this might be it for us
So why don't we
Live it up,
Live it up darlin'
Give it up
My heart is starvin'
Live it up, give it up
Oh oh

And every second that passes me by
And we're wasting precious time
So let's find out what lies between
You and me and the more we say "hello"
Let's get this right

So why don't we
Live it up,
Live it up darlin'
Give it up
My heart is starvin'
Live it up, give it up
Oh oh

You've only got one life, one life to live
I wanna give it everything I got
Who knows this might be it for us

You've only got one life, one life to live
I wanna give it everything I got
Who knows this might be it for us

So you got to
Live it up
Oh live it up darlin'
Give it up now
My heart is starvin'
Live it up now
Give it up
Oh oh

Live it up,
Live it up darlin'
Give it up
My heart is starvin'
Live it up, give it up
Oh oh

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
