If you're wondering why I've not been speaking my mind sir
It took so long to type a pointless memo
My shapes of confusion pick holes of frustration
And there's nothing worse than being home on your own

You could colour my life
Until it fits with your own
x2

I've been wondering why you've not been speaking your mind, son
I've coloured my life and I've made no bones
My shapes of confusion dig holes of frustration
You could colour my life until it fits with your own

You could colour my life
Until it fits with your own
x3

You could could colour my life
x2

If you're wondering why I've not been speaking my mind sir
It took so long since I could call this my home
My shapes of confusion dig holes of frustration
You could colour my life until it fits with your own

You could colour my life
Until it fits with your own
x3

You could could colour my life x2

Colour my life x2

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.

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.
