Remove your knives from me
You've done your damage
I will weaken slowly
I cannot manage
When you say these things
The pain is overbearing
Why cant I believe
The end is nearing?

(prechorus)
So take it away
Come take it away from me
Take it away
Cant hear what you said to me
Take it away
This wasnt meant for me
Take it away
And disappear

(chorus)
I am
Drowning in you
Your lies are too much

I cant
Live without you
I'd die without your touch

Contemplating you
So much to take in
You say you love me too
Yet Im forsaken
When you say these things
The pain is overbearing
Why cant I believe
The end is nearing?

(prechorus)
(chorus)

(solo)

(chorus) (prechorus out)

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.

“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.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
