I see thy love in the distance
Breathless gasping for air, for in thy dreams you where
Awakening to the bleakness in my room
As my eyes begin to blear reality sets and starts the fear
For do dreams come true or do I die alone
Waiting like the petals of a wilting flower fall off
Until there is non and the once beautiful flowers dies naked
With no one to clothe it
Will I hold you in the grave or will the grave hold me?
The numbing dreams never end the swallow's wings still amongst
The idle wind
My colored world turns to grayscale
Recollecting the memories eyes covered hazel
Contradiction of thy thoughts standing calm love not lost
Searching till I find my princess whose passionate eyes cut right through me
For what is life if love only exists in thy thoughts?
What is romance if it is all fiction?
Nothing but a portrait left empty, a passing cloud of hurt
By to meet my love in the flesh is to find my whole heart
Your heart breaks though me your love is the key
Longing for my hearts door
To what day till I see sunrays shine upon your face
I dream of you the way you look
The beating of love in your heart
Your wolds are like the flowing of a spring, knowing thy love
Waits for me until eternity's end
Is this poetry or is this love's sickness
Engulfing my every being
Take the heart from you and the blood ceases from me
I see what you hear
Breathe taking the closest thing to me and my savior
Falling in love to a person I have never met but knowing she has salvation's fragrance
By God's grace this love will be free and able to fly away above
The earth to a point of exhaustion
But your breath will keep me alive
Words are pointless for this love is speechless
Preparing fro the curtains close
Laying their clutching hands so tight I can feel your heart
Telling me it will be all right
Ascension to heaven wehre this love can not only walk
But it runs through the endless fields of joy
Where love neither ends nor begins but flows everlasting
This was thy dream this daybreak and will by thy prayer
That I will rest sleepless till the sun rises on that day
And butterflies sing with us as we write love symphony
The pages of life fill the story of our love in a time long ago
Where fairy tales come true
And you and I, my love, will live happily ever after
I love you

    Yes well most of Underoath's songs are a good 10 minutes if not more. They're a great band, one of the most talented around, but do not get much exposure due to their hardcore nature. tisk tisk

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.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
