This is making me crazy
These black clouds following me
So I look for signs of light
But rarely I see them
I return to my shelter
And I crawl in a bottle
I'm losing my will for this
So over emotional

Black clouds
They rain down
But they can't kill the sun

Confession
Of depression
This life I'm second-guessing
Like ashes
To ashes
I always seem to fall down
I'm tired
Of running
It's time to face my demons
Confession
Of depression
This life I'm second-guessing

My emotions are storming
And tears fall just like rain
Pain strikes like lightning
Despair is becoming my friend

I return to my shelter
And I crawl in a bottle
I'm losing my will for this
So over emotional

Black clouds
They rain down
But they can't kill the sun

Confession
Of depression
This life I'm second-guessing
Like ashes
To ashes
I always seem to fall down
I'm tired
Of running
It's time to face my demons
Confession
Of depression
This life I'm second-guessing

Black clouds
They rain down
But they can't kill the sun

Inside
Still looking for signs of light
These black clouds keep following me
I return to my shelter
And I crawl in a bottle

Black clouds
They rain down
But they can't kill the sun

Confession
Of depression
This life I'm second-guessing
Like ashes
To ashes
I always seem to fall down
I'm pushing
Myself to
A point of self destruction
Confession
Of depression
This life I'm second-guessing
I'm tired
Of running
It's time to face my demons
Confession
Of depression
This life I'm second-guessing

Black clouds
They rain down
But they can't kill the son
Inside

    hmmm.. i'm not sure, but i think this song is about being depressed and having it being locked up inside you for so long ans you try to ignore the fact that you are depressed, and you finally tell somebody about it, so you can try to help yourself "confession of depression"... "i'm tired of running it's time to face my demons"

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.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

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.
