Romper-stomper

Boy Kicks Girl

This is my history...
I find someone who blows my mind...
And then they always say to me, "I..."
"I... can not see you..."
This is my tragedy...
I find someone and think she's mine...
And when she leaves, I always say, "I..."
"I... want to see you..."
This is the irony...
I find someone who's warm and kind...
And now I always say to them, "I..."
"I... can't be with you..."
Because my history...
I find someone who blows my mind...
And then they always say to me, "I..."
"I... can not see you..."
Screw with my mind!
Do as you'd like!
I know all about your kind!
Know you're a fool!
Toy with emotion!
Pull all my strings!
Won't get the best of me!
Can't have my last bit of sanity!
Hey girl, how bout' we get together?
You're pretty nuff' to be my ex-girlfriend!
How bout' we both fall madly in love?
If you can't, maybe you could just pretend!
I'd rather see you drown! (x4)

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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.

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.
