We were never born to see in daylight
Our minds are our eyes
We live to take breaths in twilight
Tear open the disguise
Rip thy flesh
Burn thy eyes
Steal thy sight
Leave thy mind

Free thee of
The lie of life
Kill thy soul
End thy strife
Thy curse
Is thy virtue
Darkness
Is thy light

Our eyes are tuned to twilight
Our dreams are what we see
Ripping, tearing at the night we dream
In daylight what would not be

I mourn, drinking daylight
I follow the passage of the dreams
I silence the prophets that sold you
I created the obscene

Demons
Are thy angels
But their wings
Have no flight
Their wings,
Create the blight,
That corrupts,
Thy mind,

I mourn, those drowning
I believe in the reality of the dreams
I murdered the prophets that sold you
I swore I fucking absolved you

I swore vengence, for the lives,
For the lives daylight stole,
Repentance will not save you,
Only my vengence can and will,
Save you,

Our eyes are finely tuned to dusk
Our dreams aren't what we see
Ripping, tearing at the day we wish
In twilight this would not be

Our lives are tuned to twilight
This existance is what we see
Praying, begging into the night we dream
This reality cannot be

I mourn, drinking daylight
I follow the passage of the dreams
I silence the prophets that sold you
I created the obscene
I mourn, those drowning
I believe in the reality of dreams
I murdered the prophets that sold you
I swore I fucking absolved you

Dreaming of Twilight,
Dreaming of Daylight,
Dreaming of Twilight,
Dreaming, Dreaming of,
Night
Dreaming,
Dreaming of Night

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.

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.
