Trod as slaves by the tyrant canes
Laid in chains, scars and bloode
All the years I've suffered in paine

Forced by the guards to serve their lordes
Pride they can't afforde
Trapped in hell, the master's hande
Signes of justice, broken men

Fighte, stande proude, gather to strike
Rebellion of slaves, ye shall arise
Freedom in thy eyes, a hearte fill'd withe pride
We're breaking the chains of slavery
The tyrant falles tonighte

I won't cringe to the false
I hear the cries of my brothers
Heede the call of the fighte
Won't kneele again, rather die

[Solo: Kai]

Fighte, stande proude, gather to strike
Rebellion of slaves, ye shall arise
Freedom in thy eyes, a hearte fill'd with pride
We're breaking the chains of slavery
The tyrant falles tonighte

[Solo: Lars/both/Scott]

[Kai:]
Freedom, the cry in my bloode
I hear the calle of my gods
Brothers oute in the fieldes
Remember the whips that forced us to kneele
Raise your fists to the skye
Hail the gods up high
Swear the oathe of revenge, free our clans
And break the chains forever

[Kai/Lars:]
Slavery's chains will be broken
The irons will falle, falle downe to the grounde
Overwhelming the guards, tearing their weapons
Face to face withe the lordes, the tyrants are founde
Raising the sworde, wielding the axe
Hammers in handes, hailing the gods for our freedom
The masters will die, thes chains will be burned
Freeing the brothers, vengeance shall be done

[Solo: both/both]

[Lars:]
I won't cringe to the false
I hear the cries of my brothers
Heede the calle of the fighte
Won't kneele again, rather die
[Kai&Lars:]
None shall crosse our pathe
Our freedom shall laste
The warrior comes forthe
Quarter and tomente the lorde

Fighte, stande proude, gather to strike
Rebellion of slaves, ye shall arise
Freedom in thy eyes, a hearte fill'd with pride
We're breaking the chains of slavery
Fighte, stande proude, gather to strike
Rebellion of slaves, ye shall arise
Freedom in thy eyes, a hearte fill'd with pride
We're breaking the chains of slavery
The tyrant falls tonighte

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”

Holiday
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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
