This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Been washed in the blood of the Lamb
And I washed blood off of my hands
And I can't do a damn thing about it
Been taught to love but I love to hate
And my mama tried, for Heaven's sake
I can't do a damn thing about it
It's a damn shame that I can't change
I can't undo everything I'd like to
So I roll on and I shout it
'Cause I can't do a damn thing about it
I work all day, love all night
Try to keep up with the time
But I can't do a damn thing about it
Way this ol' world spins around
You can't settle up, you can't settle down
And I can't do a damn thing about it
It's a damn shame that I can't change
I can't undo everything I'd like to
So I roll on and I shout it
'Cause I can't do a damn thing about it
Roll on
Well hearts and pick-up trucks break down
Tires go flat and boys come 'round
And I can't do a damn thing about it
You can go down or you can get outta here
I just pray to God we got enough beer
To last us 'til the morning
One, two, three
It's a damn shame that I can't change
I can't undo everything I'd like to
So I roll on and I shout it
'Cause I can't do a damn thing about it
No, I can't do a damn thing about it
And I washed blood off of my hands
And I can't do a damn thing about it
Been taught to love but I love to hate
And my mama tried, for Heaven's sake
I can't do a damn thing about it
It's a damn shame that I can't change
I can't undo everything I'd like to
So I roll on and I shout it
'Cause I can't do a damn thing about it
I work all day, love all night
Try to keep up with the time
But I can't do a damn thing about it
Way this ol' world spins around
You can't settle up, you can't settle down
And I can't do a damn thing about it
It's a damn shame that I can't change
I can't undo everything I'd like to
So I roll on and I shout it
'Cause I can't do a damn thing about it
Roll on
Well hearts and pick-up trucks break down
Tires go flat and boys come 'round
And I can't do a damn thing about it
You can go down or you can get outta here
I just pray to God we got enough beer
To last us 'til the morning
One, two, three
It's a damn shame that I can't change
I can't undo everything I'd like to
So I roll on and I shout it
'Cause I can't do a damn thing about it
No, I can't do a damn thing about it

No Surprises
Radiohead
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
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.
