Piano Song

Submersed

You curse me for the things I've done and said
You live your life in confusion fully mislead
You let the things that mean the most slip away
You let the questions inside grow instead of fade

I've been walking this road for far too long
To turn and walk away
I've been walking this road for far too long
Listen to what I say
Listen to what I say

You plant the seed that's inside me so deep
You shelter me so naturally and complete
I'll take all that you give to me you'll see
I'll give it back tenfold I hope you will receive

I've been walking this road for far too long
To turn and walk away
I've been walking this road for far too long
Listen to what I say

And you're taking my life
And you're taking my time
And you're taking my skies
That fill my nights with you yeah

In the end I could walk away
In the end I could walk away
In the end I will find my way
In the end I could walk away

I've been walking this road for far too long
To turn and walk away
I've been walking this road for far too long
Listen to what I say

And you're taking my life
And you're taking my time
And you're taking my skies
That fill my nights with you yeah

I've been walking this road for far too long
To turn and walk away
I've been walking this road for far too long
Listen to what I say

    I think this song is about relationship that suddenly went badly. But no matter what girl says (in first verse) guy won't break up (second verse and chorus), because she means a lot to him.

    P.S. sorry for my English, I'm from Russia :)

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.

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.

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.

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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
