Uh, uh, uh, uh
Uh, uh, uh, uh
Uh, uh, uh, uh

'Cause it's all in my head
I think about it
Over and over again
And I can't keep
Picturing you with him
And it hurts so bad
Yeah, 'cause it's all in my head
I think about it
Over and over again
I replay it
Over and over again
And I can't take it
(Yeah) I can't shake it, no

I can't wait to see you
want to see if you still got that
Look in your eye
That one you had for me
Before we said our goodbyes
And it's a shame that we
Gotta spend our time
Being mad about the same things
Over and over again
About the same thing
Over and over again

Oh, but I think she's leavin'
Aw, man, she's leavin'
And I don't know what else to do
(Can't go on not lovin' you)

'Cause it's all in my head
I think about it
Over and over again
And I can't keep
Picturing you with him
And it hurts so bad
Yeah, 'cause it's all in my head
I think about it
Over and over again
I replay it
Over and over again
(yeah) and I can't take it
(yeah) I can't shake it, no

I remember the day you left
I remember the last breath
You took right in front of me
When you said that you would leave
I was too damn stubborn to try to stop you
Or say anything
But I see clearly now
And this choice I made keeps
Playin' in my head
Over and over again
It play in my head
Over and over again

Oh, I think she's leavin'
Aw, man, she's leavin'
And I don't know what else to do
(I Can't go on not lovin' you)

'Cause it's all in my head
I think about it
Over and over again
And I can't keep
Picturing you with him
And it hurts so bad
Yeah, 'cause it's all in my head
I think about it
Over and over again
I replay it
Over and over again
And I can't take it
I can't shake it, no

Now that I realize
That I'm going down
From all this pain you
Put me through
Every time I close my eyes (woo)
I lock it down
Oh, I can't go on not lovin' you

'Cause it's all in my head
I think about it
Over and over again
And I can't keep
Picturing you with him
And it hurts so bad
Yeah, 'cause it's all in my head
I think about it
Over and over again
I replay it
Over and over again
And I can't take it
I can't shake it

'Cause it's all in my head
I think about it
Over and over again
And I can't keep
Picturing you with him
And it hurts so bad
Yeah, 'cause it's all in my head
I think about it
Over and over again
I replay it
Over and over again
And I can't take it
I can't shake it, no

Uh, uh, uh, uh
Uh, uh, uh, uh
Uh, uh, uh, uh
Uh, uh, uh, uh
Uh, uh, uh, uh
Uh, over and over again
Over and over again
'Cause it's all in my head

    I cry everytime i hear this song...

    Not long ago...in October...a guy at my school passed away while driving home from his mothers house.

    Although i did not know MOrgan, everyone at our school felt the shock.

    In the weekly newspaper, there was a section dedicated just to Morgan (#84) in which people would write about him...and write to him as if talking to him.

    Cause its all in my head I think about it over and over again And I can’t keep picturing you with him And it hurts so bad, yeah Cause it’s on in my head I think about it over and over again I replay it over and over again And I can’t take it yeah I can’t shake it Nooo

    I can’t wait to see you Want to see if you still got that look in your eyes That one you had for me before we said our goodbyes

    One girl wrote that. I almost cried...its oddly appropriate (except for some parts). Now evertime i hear this song i think of Morgan, and how God can take you at any time.

    Morgan was only 16, he was DUI when he wrecked...he just fell asleep.

    Morgan Cox- 1988- 2004 RIP #84

its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
Album art
The Spy
Doors, The
Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?
Album art
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.
Album art
Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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.
