This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I’ve heard stories through silence and we laugh at the end
and declare that today was the best day we lived
but the end of the night draws a clam to the dark
where I dream you exist in the places you aren’t
I’m cold inside
and these pictures can’t even explain what’s missing in my life.
The coldest of calendars I couldn’t have it any better
Half the time I am alive just to see your smile
I’m cold inside
I’m cold inside
There’s a letter here waiting to go in the mail
In my head its all there but I’m not quite prepared to fade away
Don’t fade away
Somehow I’ll try to do this right
I’m cold inside
and these pictures can’t even explain what’s missing in my life.
The coldest of calendars I couldn’t have it any better
Half the time I am alive just to see your smile
Sometimes I feel cold inside It feels like I am sleeping outside.
Indoors there’s a light I can in your eyes
I've seen nights without sleep
Days without daylight
These memories I keep wont keep me warm at night
The coldest part is the heart that we share
is breaking apart and you're not even here
to say things will get better
so freezing out
blanket my discontent til I sleep again
I’m cold inside
I’m saving a story that won’t begin til you’re there
and declare that today was the best day we lived
but the end of the night draws a clam to the dark
where I dream you exist in the places you aren’t
I’m cold inside
and these pictures can’t even explain what’s missing in my life.
The coldest of calendars I couldn’t have it any better
Half the time I am alive just to see your smile
I’m cold inside
I’m cold inside
There’s a letter here waiting to go in the mail
In my head its all there but I’m not quite prepared to fade away
Don’t fade away
Somehow I’ll try to do this right
I’m cold inside
and these pictures can’t even explain what’s missing in my life.
The coldest of calendars I couldn’t have it any better
Half the time I am alive just to see your smile
Sometimes I feel cold inside It feels like I am sleeping outside.
Indoors there’s a light I can in your eyes
I've seen nights without sleep
Days without daylight
These memories I keep wont keep me warm at night
The coldest part is the heart that we share
is breaking apart and you're not even here
to say things will get better
so freezing out
blanket my discontent til I sleep again
I’m cold inside
I’m saving a story that won’t begin til you’re there

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,
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
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.

“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.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
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.
i love this song! i love the "half the time i am alive just to see your smile" part. its beautiful.
I wish I really could define this song into a real meaning but I really don't think it's so concreate to make a true defination.
i've been crying to this song for the past two days since i've discovered it... i think the meaning is kind of hard to figure out, it seems like the guy is missing something, but the something is still somewhat in his life from the line "half the time i'm alive just to see your smile"... i dont know, interesting song
This song is good in its normal version, but listen to the piano version of this and you'll cry its so good.
In total agreement with Poison.. The Piano just makes that intro an orgasam waiting to happen.. It has also been deemed High Times SOng of the Year.. listen to the song high, i swear it elevates its beauty 100 times..
ok, My interpretation of this song is that he loves some one but cannot have them or is going through a hard time with them "The coldest part is the heart that we share is breaking apart and you're not even here to say things will get better " and the rest of the song is him tellin this person not to leave becasue of all the good things that have happened " I’ve heard stories through silence and we laugh at the end and declare that today was the best day we lived"
Don't laugh at me, but I was laying down listening to it and I think it's about some lonely guy, and a girl he only gets to see in his dreams. or about an imaginary girl, a fantasy.
probably not, but that's what I'll think of it as anyway.
I like that last one ^, agreed but not necessarily someone unreal, maybe like a girl he works with or sees everywhere but doesn't have the nerve to talk to. Maybe.
about being on the road, missing everyone back home that you love. at least thats what steve said before they played it.
i personally prefer the acoustic version of this song
