Si je t'écris ce soir de Vienne
J'aimerais bien que tu comprennes
Que j'ai choisi l'absence comme dernière chance
Notre ciel devenait si lourd
Si je t'écris ce soir de Vienne
Oh, que c'est beau l'automne à Vienne
C'est que sans réfléchir, j'ai préféré partir
Et je suis à Vienne sans toi
Je marche, je rêve dans Vienne
Sur trois temps de valse lointaine
Il semble que les ombres tournent et se confondent
Qu'ils étaient beaux, les soirs de Vienne
Ta lettre a dû croiser la mienne
Non, je ne veux pas que tu viennes
Je suis seul et puis j'aime
Être libre, oh que j'aime
Cet exil à Vienne sans toi

Une vieille dame autrichienne
Comme il n'en existe qu'à Vienne
Me loge et dans ma chambre
Tombent de pourpre et d'ambre
De lourdes tentures de soies
C'est beau à travers les persiennes
Je vois l'église Saint-Etienne
Et quand le soir se pose, c'est bleu, c'est gris, c'est mauve
Et la nuit par-dessus les toits
Que c'est beau Vienne
Que c'est beau Vienne

Cela va faire une semaine
Déjà que je vis seul à Vienne
C'est curieux le hasard, j'ai croisé l'autre soir
Nos amis de Lountatchimo
Cela va faire une semaine

Ils étaient de passage à Vienne
Ils n'ont rien demandé, mais se sont étonnés
De me voir à Vienne sans toi

Moi, moi
Je me promène
Je suis bien
Je suis bien

Et puis de semaine en semaine
Voilà que je vis seule à Vienne
Tes lettres se font rares, peut-être qu'autre part
Tu as trouvé l'oubli de moi
Je lis, j'écris mais quand même
Qu'il est long l'automne à Vienne
Dans ce lit à deux places où la nuit je me glace
Tout à coup j'ai le mal de toi
Que c'est long Vienne
Que c'est loin Vienne

Si je t'écris ce soir de Vienne
Chérie, c'est qu'il faut que tu viennes
J'étais parti, pardonne-moi
Notre ciel devenait si lourd
Et toi de Paris jusqu'à Vienne
Au bout d'une invisible chaîne
Tu me guettais je pense, jouant l'indifférence
Et tu m'as gardé malgré moi

Il est minuit ce soir à Vienne
Mon amour, il faut que tu viennes
Tu vois je m'abandonne, il est si beau l'automne
Et j'aimerais le vivre avec toi
Que c'est beau Vienne
Avec toi, Vienne

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.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

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.
