Standing Beside Myself Can't Think About Much Else
And All I've Got Is Time Something That You Can't
Find I Never Seen This Coming My Self Destruction
Wasn't What I Had Wanted For Myself Myself...

So What's Up Today? I'm Facing Nothing New I'll
Throw It All Away, How Can I See This Through It's
What I'm Left With Now, I've Giving Up Somehow I'll
Throw It All Away, Just Take A Look And See

Try And Tell Me Something That I've Never Heard
Before You Tell Me Everything I Know Your Fucking
Words Are Such A Bore, And I Don't Wanna Think About
This Shit Don't Even Try And Ask Cause I Don't Need
Your Help, Don't Need Your Lies, I've Left It In The
Past

I Reach For The Bottle One Last Time No Worries Or
Cares About My Life One Last Thing That I Can Throw
Away (Why Can I Never Get It Right) Well I Find
Myself Lost Again I'm Gonna Get It Together But I
Don't Know When Help Me Find A Way

By Now You Got It Right As I Just Run And Hide You
Never Seen This Through I'll Make You Fall Through
Too You Never Seen This Coming Your Self Destruction
Wasn't What You Had Wanted For Yourself Yourself...

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Bron-Y-Aur Stomp

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
