I just want to rest my weary head
From this bombardment.
How can you just shut your feelings off
And pretend we'd never met?

When you asked me how I pushed myself away,
I sat silent and held it all in.

I just want to rest my weary head
From this bombardment.
Now look at me.

Now I'm sitting here the next morning.
Thoughts of last night are playing and rewinding.
Over and over.
Every time they play it gets worse and worse.

Now I'm sitting here.
Thoughts of last night are playing.
Over and over.
Every time they play it gets worse and worse.

    King Ly Chee is a Hong Kong based emotional hardcore band, and is really worth checking out if you like bands like Poison the Well, Glassjaw and more emo-orientated bands like December Drive as well. Nice song structures, dynamic changes and live show energy make KLC worth checking out...

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.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

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.
