Angel, such a pretty little angel
You know I'm gonna take the trip to talk of love
Angel, such a pretty little angel
And when I take you for that ride, well, then you'll see just why I lied
Angel, such a pretty little angel

You know what happens when I don't get my way
I'm like a devil in disguise driving up the skyway
So don't tell me where I've gone wrong because I'm right here where I belong
The only thing that I've been told is gain the world and lose your soul

Angel, such a pretty little angel
My angel, such a pretty little angel

You know what happens when I don't get my way
Like the devil in your soul tearing up your skyway
See the light that hides in faith disappear without a trace
The only way to end your life is dive straight in and twist the knife

Angel, such a pretty little angel
My angel, such a pretty little angel

I can't believe the things I've done and all the people I've become
I never want to live in chains, let's just say I'd be ashamed
I can't believe the things I've seen and all the evil in between
I never want to live the lie, please believe it, why oh why

Angel, such a pretty little angel
My angel, such a pretty little angel

Angel, such a pretty little angel
My angel, such a pretty little angel

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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
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.

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.
