Lightning Strikes

Ozzy Osbourne

Won't you listen 'cos I'm at it
Again
Lightning striking and on that
You can depend
They say that lightning never
Strikes the same place twice
Gods of thunder sit and watch
The event
You know I take no prisoners
My back's to the wall
You know I must be going
When destiny calls
Until I feel that thunder
Shattering my brain
I won't stop

Rockin' all night rockin' all
Night
Until the lightning strikes
Again
Rockin' all night rockin' all
Night
Until the lightning strikes
Again

Tell your mama that you're
Gonna be late
But not to worry we'll just be
Rockin' all night
The lightning strikes before
You hear the thunder roar
We're becoming the children
Of the night

I'm not apologizing
I am what I am
There is no compromising
I don't give a damn
Until i feel the thunder boiling
In my veins
I won't stop

Rockin' all night rockin' all
Night
Until the lightning strikes
Again
Rockin' all night rockin' all
Night
Until the lightning strikes
Again

Oh no I've lost control
Here we got it's only rock 'n'
Roll

The silver light is flashing
As all turns to gold
In my head voices screaming
And I'm being told
If you will only listen you will
Hear them too
I won't stop

Rockin' all night rockin' all
Night
Until the lightning strikes
Again
Rockin' all night rockin' all
Night
Until the lightning strikes
Again

    basically he just wants to keep on playing rock and roll and no one is going to stop him. great message.

    Randy Castillo (R.I.P.) was such a great drummer...

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
