Die Augenringe erzählen die Nacht
Fremdes Hotel, bin fröstelnd aufgewacht
Mit 'nem Gewissen, das mich ständig beißt
Oh, du fehlst mir so
In der Arena gestern noch der Held
Heute der Typ, der den Hörer falsch herum hält
Ach, warum gehst du denn nicht ran?
Ich vermiss' dich so
Wenn der Himmel mir jetzt auf den Kopf drauf fällt
Bist du die einzige, die noch zu mir hält
Ich brauch' jetzt deine ruhige Hand
Oh, meld' dich doch bei mir
Oh, ich gäb' sonst was dafür, oh

Lena
Du hast es oft nicht leicht
Wie weit die Kraft doch reicht
Wenn ich am Boden liege
Erzählst du mir, dass ich bald fliege
Lena
Wie ein klarer, warmer Wind
Wenn die Tage stürmisch sind
Lass' ich mich zu dir treiben
Seelen aneinander reiben

Bin viel zu oft weit weg von dir
Abgestürzt, gestrandet neben dir
Mein Glück, dass du Bruchpiloten magst
Du kennst mich gut, ich schwör' dir nie zu viel
Aber du weißt, du bist mein wahres Ziel
Du hast mich immer noch nicht satt
Du bist Luft für mich, die ich zum Atmen brauch'
Die Landebahn in meinem Bauch
Die Tropfen für mein schwaches Herz
Ich lieb' dich alltagsgrau
Oh, ich lieb' dich sonntagsblau

(Lena)

Lena
Du hast es oft nicht leicht
Wie weit die Kraft doch reicht
Wenn ich am Boden liege
Erzählst du mir, dass ich bald fliege
Lena
Wie ein klarer, warmer Wind
Wenn die Tage stürmisch sind
Lass' ich mich zu dir treiben
Seelen aneinander reiben

Lena
Du hast es oft nicht leicht
Wie weit die Kraft doch reicht
Wenn ich am Boden liege
Erzählst du mir, dass ich bald fliege
Lena
Wie ein klarer, warmer Wind
Wenn die Tage stürmisch sind
Lass' ich mich zu dir treiben
Seelen aneinander reiben

(Lena-aaaaa)

Hey yeah
(uuuh)
Lena!
Ooooh
(Lena-aaaaa)
Lena!
(ooohh)
Lalalalala
(Lena-aaaaa)

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

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.

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

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.
