Soaking through
Colours that hold us up against the wall
Soaking through
Colours that hold us up against the wall
Hold your colours against the wall
When they take everything away
Hold your colours against the wall
(I twisted the knife and opened your eyes)
(Twisted the knife and opened your eyes)
(I twisted the knife and opened your eyes)
Soaking through
Hold your colours against the wall
When they take everything away
Hold your colours against the wall
Soaking through
(I twisted the knife and opened your eyes)
(I twisted the knife and)
Ah, she looked into your eyes
And saw what laid beneath
Don't try to save yourself
The circle is complete
We're reaching out and to tell you
Nothing else can touch me
Soaking through
Hold your colours against the wall
When they take everything away
Hold your colours against the wall
Soaking through
(I twisted the knife and opened your eyes)
Ah, she looked into your eyes
And saw what laid beneath
Don't try to save yourself
The circle is complete
(I twisted the knife and opened your eyes)
(I twisted the knife and)
Fading gently
Soaking through
And starting not to show at all
We're reaching out and to take you
Nothing else can touch me
Soaking through
Hold your colours against the wall
When they take everything away
Hold your colours against the wall
Soaking through
Hold your colours against the wall
When they take everything away
Hold your colours against the wall, rinse me (I twisted the knife and opened your eyes)
Colours that hold us up against the wall
Soaking through
Colours that hold us up against the wall
Hold your colours against the wall
When they take everything away
Hold your colours against the wall
(I twisted the knife and opened your eyes)
(Twisted the knife and opened your eyes)
(I twisted the knife and opened your eyes)
Soaking through
Hold your colours against the wall
When they take everything away
Hold your colours against the wall
Soaking through
(I twisted the knife and opened your eyes)
(I twisted the knife and)
Ah, she looked into your eyes
And saw what laid beneath
Don't try to save yourself
The circle is complete
We're reaching out and to tell you
Nothing else can touch me
Soaking through
Hold your colours against the wall
When they take everything away
Hold your colours against the wall
Soaking through
(I twisted the knife and opened your eyes)
Ah, she looked into your eyes
And saw what laid beneath
Don't try to save yourself
The circle is complete
(I twisted the knife and opened your eyes)
(I twisted the knife and)
Fading gently
Soaking through
And starting not to show at all
We're reaching out and to take you
Nothing else can touch me
Soaking through
Hold your colours against the wall
When they take everything away
Hold your colours against the wall
Soaking through
Hold your colours against the wall
When they take everything away
Hold your colours against the wall, rinse me (I twisted the knife and opened your eyes)

Holiday
Bee Gees
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
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.
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 used this song as a basis for my last art assignment. I think it went really well. It's a good title track. Its about leaving parts of yourself.. in others.. about making a difference.. somewhere you thought you couldnt.
