She said live young and leave a wake of beauty,
It's all I ever could have asked
Should have asked from you,
And I won't forget to write you
When I get there soon
'Cause you'll be lying dead
From stab wounds to the
Neck and chest again,

They found you covered up in blood,
Covered head to toe in blood
Face first in a tale of awkward love,
They found you covered up in blood,
She' bleeding she's bleeding

Gone with the stitching in her heart
Left out a silhouette that just won't
Heal and dying in your arms tonight

This dream, we die,
Locked away,
With this blood, and this knife
This dream, we die,
Locked away,
With this blood,
And this knife

I know it's all
Just a bad dream now

So now midnights here
You're all alone
They use this fear
It's all just a bad dream
And I can't seem to

Wake up from this [2x]
In my dreams, we die,
With this blood, and this knife
In my dreams, we die,
With this blood, and this knife now

I know it's all just a bad dream now
(i know it's all just a bad dream now)
It's all just a bad dream now
(I know it's all just a bad dream now)
It's all just a bad dream now
(I know it's all just a bad dream now)

I say
This is the last time that
I'll ever get to see your face alive,
They found you covered up in blood,
Covered head to toe in blood
And I know that everyday's a new day
And my dreams will never die,
They found you covered up in blood,
Covered head to toe in blood

She said live young and leave a wake of beauty,
It's all I ever could have asked
Should have asked from you,
And I won't forget to write you
When I get there soon
'Cause you'll be lying dead from dreaming (nightmares)

So now midnights here
You're all alone
They use this fear
It's all just a bad dream
And I can't seem to
Wake up from this
Wake up from this
Wake up from this

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
