Sad memories the gathering rain brings
I loved her but I'll never see her again
Clouds raise their heads in the morning
The way I once walked on by her
But now she's gone and I'll never raise my face again
White horses dragged my lover from me
The clouds rushed in and drowned my sorrow with the rain
My friends try to lift me
They understand how I'm feeling
But the truth holds me down
She came and went with the rain
White horses dragged my lover from me
The clouds rushed in and drowned my sorrow...
With the rain
Now always the storms come...
Raindrops run down my windows
All that's left is her picture
But someday it to will
Wash away...
Wash away...
I watched her walk away,
With the rain
I loved her but I'll never see her again
Clouds raise their heads in the morning
The way I once walked on by her
But now she's gone and I'll never raise my face again
White horses dragged my lover from me
The clouds rushed in and drowned my sorrow with the rain
My friends try to lift me
They understand how I'm feeling
But the truth holds me down
She came and went with the rain
White horses dragged my lover from me
The clouds rushed in and drowned my sorrow...
With the rain
Now always the storms come...
Raindrops run down my windows
All that's left is her picture
But someday it to will
Wash away...
Wash away...
I watched her walk away,
With the rain

Holiday

@[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.
No Surprises
Radiohead
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
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 think it's a good little cover
i thiink alkaline trio also did a good job with that damned cover on the one man army split
