Let me know if you care, I can still feel that theres something left between us and I

I know that this feeling is here to stay and its not gonna go away,
I feel like this angel is gonna leave me all alone,

So I close my eyes and see you in my home

Shes slipping through my hands, and she begins to cry, I'll wait to see you on the otherside,

Look into her eyes as she begins to cry,
Ill wait to see you on the otherside, My bedroom friend is leaving but Im still dreaming all alone,

So I close my eyes and see you in my home

Shes slipping through my hands, and she begins to cry, I'll wait to see you on the otherside, Look into her eyes as she begins to cry,

Ill wait to see you on the otherside, I feel theres something left here, and I know this feelings here to stay,

I feel the angel leave me, close your eyes to see me, I feel theres something left here, and I know this feelings here to stay,

I feel the angel leave me, close your eyes to see your other side

    The lastest song from the White Butterfly album, this a whole lot more melodic than some of there older stuff, Dave really showing that he's got a broader vocal range. I'm not quite sure about the meaning, I think it could possibly be about a girl who's mentally quite fucked up. He know's that somethings wrong, and she may be on the verge of killing herself ("She's slipping through my hands, and she begins to cry"). And he knows the next time he see's her may be on the otherside, which you'd assume is heaven or something like that. And the only comfort he can gain, is by closing his eyes and pretending that she's there with him.

    Well that's my thoughts on it, I just can't wait for the rest of the White Butterfly album now. It's due out in early 2005 I think now that InMe have got their record deal sorted out. And maybe another return to Middlesbrough when they're on tour...I really hope so!! :-D

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.

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.

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.

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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
