Guns and ammo lie in front of you
The clips are all loaded, now what shall you do?

This is how it starts when the end glows wildly in the dark
This is how it starts when the last breath ends the last spark

Nine, nine, nine!
Millimeter,
Nine, nine, nine!
Millimeter!!

Shoot!
The last ammunition
Let the clips fall down
The last ammunition
And fall to the ground

The Desert Eagle spreads its wings for you
Kiss the cold steel then let the bullets come through

This is the ultimate end, I'll make it sure that you will see
As I shall kiss the cold steel and see how dark this day really can be

Nine, nine, nine!
Millimeter,
Nine, nine, nine!
Millimeter!!

Shoot!
The last ammunition
Let the clips fall down
The last ammunition
And fall to the ground

Bite the blank steel now let the bullets come through
The silver eagle says it's time to

Shoot!
The last ammunition
Come on and do it now
The last ammunition
I'm going to show you how!

This is how it must end, So bright shines the pistol
This is how I'll feel when the last clip is falling
And the barrels are glowing tonight

Shoot!
The last ammunition
Let the clips fall down
The last ammunition
And fall to the ground

And fall to the ground!

    It's about suicide, maybe of a soldier because it's the "last ammunition".

    The "Desert Eagle" is in fact a gun.

    so when you say nine,nine,nine,it could mean authority? As in,999. Millimeter just means the size of the bullet. I think,but there should be more to it.

    Maybe its just how you go against authorities to get what you want. Maybe for this case,to kill somebody? I'm not very good at interpreting,but this is my first impression of the song.

    I kind of agree with KuroKupo here. I don't know about anyone else, but I think of this song as a kind of anthom to a revolution. Just my take on it though.

    I think it's talking about a suicide rush. Kill them all, and hold nothing back, because you won't be alive to need anything.

    i think this song is about how the autouritys are chocking and killing us.

    999 seems to refer to government

    consider a war ... you are a soldier and you are under heavy enemy fire ... you just have a clip left and all you have to do is kill as many people as you can and just die after it ... the song just motivates the person in that situation ... at least this is what comes to my mind :D

    this song is about soliders taking the last stand load there guns and know that they are gonna die so the best take the chance they got to kill heaps of people. the desert eagle thing saying its spreading its wings means the gun is like signaling him to use it he kisses it to pray it works. the next bit is about his anger he is gonna make them "see how dark this day really can be" by killing them making his last stand. the last bit is about there is no way out of this so he has to bite the bullet and kill himself with his last bullet... his last ammunition

    I agree with most comments above, but nine millimeter I think is just the size of the bullet, I don't think it has any specific reasons that it's used 3 times, because in the song it also seems more like an echo, so... And I agree more with the ideea of the war, because the last part is more like a part of pure despair, as in the This is how it must end, When the soldiers are kinda through with all the killings, they just kill themselves to stop the insanity in their heads, also, the part about the silver eagle says it's time to, The gun tells them to do it, They become a part of their gun, and not the other way around, they've gone completely insane, I guess...

This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io

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.

Head > Heels

Amazing
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.
