I want to stare into the sun
Until my eyes are burned and done
When everybody's learned to pray
The rabid wolves come out to play

You're fading out
Emotionless
You won't amount
To more than this

So keep, keep cutting me down
Cheap, cheap tongue in your mouth
Keep, keep cutting me down
Cheap, cheap tongue in your mouth

You're so grown up behind the gun
A precious gift to everyone
So sacrifice your favorite son
The fall of man has now begun

You're fading out
Emotionless
You won't amount
To more than this

So keep, keep cutting me down
Cheap, cheap tongue in your mouth
Keep, keep cutting me down
Cheap, cheap tongue in your mouth

Please come down, let me cherish the sound
Of wasted breath
I know somehow you will never be found
Ashamed I guess

Please come down, let me cherish the sound
Of wasted breath
I know somehow you will never be found
Ashamed I guess

You're fading out
Emotionless
You won't amount
To more than this

So keep, keep cutting me down
Cheap, cheap tongue in your mouth
Keep, keep cutting me down
Cheap, cheap tongue in your mouth

'Cause you know I'm gonna burn you down
'Cause you know I'm gonna burn you down

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.

Bron-Y-Aur Stomp
Led Zeppelin
This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.

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.
