4 Days

V-mob

Why does the world have to work this way
Take it all away
I can remember the first time I saw you

You were a new face in my life why
Why'd you have to go

I can not see you but still I can feel you
Yes I can hear you but can you hear me too

You reach for me I reach for you
When will we meet up again

Try not to cry when I ask him why
When will I finally see the end

Partially broken I walk through my life
Without a care and I wish you were there

You'll live forever in my mind
Never let you go

I can not see you but still I can feel you
Yes I can hear you but can you hear me too

You reach for me I reach for you
When will we meet up again

Try not to cry when I ask him why
When will I finally see the end

I feel my life slipping away from me
Come take away the pain

You could not know how much I miss you so
I need you here with me

I'd give my hands to see you again
I'd give my life to hear your voice

I wish I could touch you
I wish I could see you
I wish you could hear me
I wish that I knew you
Everyday I look around and see the same thing
Never know how I'm gonna make it through another day

While I'm here fell Like the walls are slowly closing in
Every time I think that I will never see you again

Don't know what has happened
I know there's no reason
For you to be taken
From this world

You reach for me I reach for you
When will we meet up again

Try not to cry when I ask him why
Will will I finally see the end

I feel my life slipping away from me
Take away the pain

You could not know how much I miss you so
I need you here with me

I can't break free of my misery
Come take away the pain

It's you I need whenever I'm alone
I need you here with me

I need you here
Can you hear me?
Why can't you say that you'll help me break free
If you were able I know that you would
I think its wrong just the thought that you can't tell me why

    This song is a true story much like all the other v-mob songs were. This is about a loss of a sister to a v-mob member, she died after only bein born for 4 days, and as a child he remebers holding her in the hospital and then going to the funeral, and how his life and the life os his family was changed and not a day goes by does he wonder did she here me and felt my love for her and how one day they will be together forever

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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.

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
