The suExplainn and the moon never change
They just rearrange, but not in the new day
Gold exchanges for silver
And a light on the river gets carried away
[Hook]
On and on, on and on
On and on, on and on
I lift up my head and I wonder
Just who it is calming, calming the moon now
I trip on my way and I blunder
My head hiding under a blanket of shame
[Hook]
I, alone may I go
Where God only knows just where I am going
High, alone may I go
But God only knows just where I am going
The people around me won't let me
Become what I need to, they want me the same
I look at myself and I want to
Just cover my eyes and give myself a new name
Stones in the sky never worry
They don't have to hurry, they move in their own way
But I have to choose what to do
How to act, what to think, how to talk, what to say
[Hook x3]
They just rearrange, but not in the new day
Gold exchanges for silver
And a light on the river gets carried away
[Hook]
On and on, on and on
On and on, on and on
I lift up my head and I wonder
Just who it is calming, calming the moon now
I trip on my way and I blunder
My head hiding under a blanket of shame
[Hook]
I, alone may I go
Where God only knows just where I am going
High, alone may I go
But God only knows just where I am going
The people around me won't let me
Become what I need to, they want me the same
I look at myself and I want to
Just cover my eyes and give myself a new name
Stones in the sky never worry
They don't have to hurry, they move in their own way
But I have to choose what to do
How to act, what to think, how to talk, what to say
[Hook x3]

@[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.
I Can't Go To Sleep

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.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
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.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
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.
The sun and the moon never change They just rearrange The night and the new day Gold exchanges for silver And the light on a river Gets carried away
On and on, on and on
I lift my head up and I wonder Just who is it Calling my name now I trip on my way and I blunder My head falling under A blanket of shame
On and on, on and on
High and low may I go But God only knows Just where I am going
The people around me Wont let me become what I need to They want me the same I look at myself and I want to Just cover my eyes and Give myself a new name
The stones in the sky never worry They don't have to hurry They move in their own way But I have to choose what to do How to act, what to think How to talk, what to say
On and on, on and on
