Confess all these inhibitions that I could never say
You could never learn to face a soul in time and space
All these empty rooms that chant and seem to call my name
I can't seem to choose which one. What if I'm falling astray?

Set foot on overdrive
It's too late to wonder why
And just walk on by
I'll gently sigh, it's alright, 'cause...

[chorus]
These walls are closing in
It's painful
The lights are turning dim
It's still tonight to see what I can't kiss
Babe, it must miss all inside

Twelve to three, I'm staring back at you so we can flee
Pain and thoughts of where I am and who I used to be
Endless meaning makes me count the seconds even more
All this history that I've never noticed before

Set foot on overdrive
It's too late to wonder why
And just walk on by
I'll gently sigh, it's alright, 'cause...

[chorus]

But somehow, I cannot leave
These voices in my head don't sleep
So don't step on overdrive
I'll lay down here and wonder why
Watch these stars align
And ponder if I'm alright

[chorus x3]

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
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.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

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.

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.
