Ich hab mir die Musik ausgesucht, okay, jetzt muss ich tanzen
Die Schule ist vorbei, ade, vergiss den Ranzen
Verlass' die ganzen Sorgen und schlucke die Furcht
Meine Augen sind offen, also Augen zu und durch
Doch da ist immer irgendjemand, der mir sagt, dass das nicht geht
Immer irgendjemand, der das hier nicht versteht
Da ist immer irgendjemand, der böse Dinge spricht
Aber soll ich dir mal was sagen, irgendjemand interessiert mich nicht
Denn ich bestimm' für mich alleine, was mir wichtig ist
Nur ich bestimme, was falsch und richtig ist denn
Meine Freiheit ist mein Eid und bricht sie das Gesetz
Mein Beileid, wenn Ihr nicht frei seid, doch ich leb' im hier und jetzt
Und ich schätz', bevor ich aufhöre, würd' ich lieber sterben
Wenn man glaubt, etwas zu sein, hat man aufgehört, etwas zu werden
Und da ist nichts, was ich nicht werden oder kriegen kann
Und wenn ich fest dran glaube, dann weiß ich, dass ich fliegen kann

Fly, now I can fly I just spread my wings and rise into the sky
Fly, just watch me fly I just spread my wings and drift into the sky
Who I know ? I just know that I could fly
I spread my wings and fly away

Und ich mache mich frei von alledem, was schlecht ist
Ich brauche keinen Wahrsager, der mir sagt, was echt ist
Denn, dass das Leben manchmal hart und ungerecht ist
Liegt mir als Vermächtnis im Gedächtnis aber
Ich schöpfe mehr, immer mehr, immer mehr Kraft
Ich will scheinen, so hell wie's nur 'n Stern schafft
Entgegen den Gesetzen der Schwerkraft bewegen
Unter mir die Wolken und der Regen
Ich brauch' nicht überlegen, ich fühle was ich tu
Solange ich es fühle, spür' ich, dass ich zu
Mehr fähig bin, weil ich sehr fähig bin, seh' ich Probleme hinter mir
Dann stärkt mich das hier drin
Und ich denke nicht mal dran, mir meine Träume nehmen zu lassen
Von Leuten die daneben fassen und ihr eignes Leben hassen
Denn es gibt nichts, was ich nicht werden oder kriegen kann
Wenn ich fest dran glaube, dann weiß ich, dass ich fliegen kann

Und ich besinne mich auf meinen Stolz, mein Blut, meine Ehre
Denke mir, was soll's, nehm' den ganzen Mut und überquere die schwere
Schwelle vom Dunkeln ins Helle - mach' mir keine Sorgen über Morgen
Und ich stelle fest, es lag an mir, hab' ich das Ziel nie erreicht?
Doch jetzt wo ich's versuche, erscheint es kinderleicht
Vielleicht gibt es ein paar Steine, die im Wege liegen
Da mach' ich mir nichts draus, denn ich kann fliegen

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"

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

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.

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.
