""Never thought that love and sadness Could ever walk hand in hand Never thought that laughter and sorrow Could live within this same heart We came far living on stolen moments We can pretend for only so long We all fail stumble and fall We are the same 'till the end in fire Out to the sea I cry my heart Into the wind I weep my sorrows Below this soil I lay my thoughts Under the waves I drown my grief Out to the sea you cry your heart Into the wind you weep your sorrows Below this soil we lay our thoughts Under the waves we drown our grief You were the one I believed in I was the one worth your trust But stars no longer will guide us We walk in all-consuming dark For life shapes us an we never return To the same where we left from Hope always looks for a disappointment And tranquility for a war And I sail this sea in a leaking ship Try to cross an ocean without a sheet No wind will carry me to the shore No wave will take me back to home You are in the silence around me You are the water in my lungs You are in escaping daylight As we dance our way into the dark Into the dark...""

    We ended up recording 11 songs in total with these album sessions. As ten songs already tick around 56 minutes we decided it would be a good call to leave one song as bonus. Just to keep the actual album but more coherent. This song came together quite easily. I remember playing the parts with acoustic guitar and just recording stuff down to my iPhone after moving near London. After I blocked the chorus par from one of Markus's demos it was pretty much a wrap. Lyrically it's about seeking comfort and solitude from nature. There's just something soothing about walking in the forest far away from all the noise; strong sensation of coming home and being part of the wild. V. Friman

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[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.

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.
