Tomorrow, I am leaving for Baltimore
You think I act like Harry Potter, like you're Voldemort
I don't care what you said, you didn't mean it like I did
Don't even start
With me

Turn up the heat, turn up the heat
Please get out the kitchen
You're like vegan cheese: try as I might, you never melt for me
It wasn't quite as funny at the time.

Now in ten minutes, I will be ten minutes away
Part of me thinks I should go back to the folk-punk house and stay
Everybody was so nice there
There were lots of heavy things that stayed in place

And I wish that this was more like that
But when you feel held back, you slip away
And really, I get that, 'cause sometimes I also feel that way
But I'm older now and I know this now
It's a game, it's a game, it's a game, and I can't play
Hey hey

'Cause I shoot for the impossible knowing that it won't come
And you think I would know better now that I am twenty-one
I've been bored, I've been so bored
And I've been numb and dumb and I'm still pretty young.

Besides, I'm really getting so adept at preventing my own happiness
Complacency breeds latency in that space it sits deep in my chest
And the thing that beats beneath your breast has been at rest but I try my best
To see how close I can get to it, 'cause I get productive when I get upset
Hey

So now, in ten minutes, I will be ten minutes away
Part of me thinks I should leave right now, but I sit back and stay
I've been bored, I've been so bored
And I've been looking for a little bit of heartache

Baltimore
Baltimore
Baltimore
Baltimore

Baltimore
Tomorrow, I am leaving for Baltimore
Where it won't bother me bother me in
Baltimore
Tomorrow, I am leaving for Baltimore
Once more

Baltimore
Tomorrow, I am leaving for Baltimore
Where it won't bother me, bother me, not in
Baltimore
Tomorrow, I am leaving for Baltimore
Once more

Tomorrow, I am leaving for Baltimore
You think I act like Harry Potter, but you're Voldemort
I don't care what you said, you didn't mean it like I did
Don't even start.

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.

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.
