Once I was now I am no more
A burst of flames threw me into oblivion

The life I knew seems distant and unreal
A fading dream, a memory I can't recall

Am I real I can no longer tell
A notion tells me I still exist

Infinite dark through this void I float
Resting, waiting for the day
When I will live again

Eons pass or maybe I just blinked
Deeper into this hell I sink

Falling through Ginnungagap
I'm pulled towards an unseen gate
I seem to hear my name being called
I float towards these cries of fate

Faster than the speed of light
I am falling through universe

Stars flash by before my eyes
The time has come to return

Out of the dark into the light
Back into life I am cast

By my side a demon army rides
We ride to reclaim that once we lost

Eons have passed, I'm back from the dead
Victory lies ahead

    In norse mythology, Ginnungagap is the primal void that existed before anything was. Apart from that, these lyrics dont seem to have any specific connection to any norse story or tradition. I rather think that it is a reference to the christian beliefs of fallen angels being locked in the abyss, and resurfacing during the endtimes.

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.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
