Those comforting words you whispered though a troubling sleep
I carry with all the scars I keep
As a warning of what can happen to anyone
Who forgets where their place is like me

As I watch my friends disappear I said
I drove them away, I set myself as king again
of the greatest uncured that this world has ever seen
And I can't remember what I was looking for

But I did find something in myself that I despise
And I don't mind, I just remember when I'm bored
I can't remember what I swore we'd never wait forever for
Never wait forever for
Never wait forever for

And the ghosts in my head, they won't talk to me
And the demons I used to drink with won't listen to what I think
That I'm fine and I'm alone and I just need sleep

I did find something in myself that I despise
And I don't mind, I just remember when I'm bored
I can't remember what I swore we'd never wait forever for
Never wait forever for
Never wait forever for

Goodbye kid, I'm over it
I can't remember
Goodbye kid, I'm over it
I can't stay forever
Goodbye kid, I'm over it
I can't remember
Goodbye kid, You're too old for this
I can't stay forever

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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.

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.
