The doctor said come back again next week
I think that you need me
All she did was cry
She wanted to die doctor when can you see me
There's a guy out there
Seems like he's everywhere
It just ain't fair

Heartless heartless
Never never out of control
Heartless heartless
Ya keep on sinnin'
In the name of a rock and roll
Heartless heartless
Ya think he's gonna bare his empty soul
He never realizes the way love dies
When you crucify it's soul

Late night, in the penthouse room
The fire is burnin'
The shadows are warm
She lay in his arms, answers his yearning
D'ya think she understand the lie of his plans
Her eyes are filled with sand

Heartless heartless
Never never out of control
Heartless heartless
Ya keep on sinnin'
In the name of a rock and roll
Heartless heartless
He thinks it's so cool to be cold
He never realizes the way love dies
When you crucify it's soul

Heartless heartless
Never never out of control
Heartless heartless
Ya keep on sinnin'
In the name of a rock and roll
Heartless heartless
Ya think he's gonna bare his empty soul
You never realizes the way love dies
When you crucify it's soul

Yeah, didn't you never realize

Crucify me

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.

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.
