Don't tell me you're done for
Don't need to hear you're done for
But you can tell me what you are running from
I need you more than you need you

I can see you're really really running
Can I ask you where you gonna run to
And you think your really really funny
Well I don't think your funny as you do

We all feel like we're breaking sometime
But I won't give you up tonight

Stay awake, stay awake
Survive
I've got nineteen stars that I
Give your name tonight

And I wanna scream, wanna scream your name.
Star light, star bright can save
You're my wish tonight

Don't tell me it doesn't matter
I'll tell you what matters
Bare feet in the summer
Open windows at night
You think that no one needs you

You don't have nothing to see through
Well I needed you.
Don't I count?
Lets fight.

Show me anger
Fierce fists clutching onto air.
Show me anything.
Just show me you care.

Stay awake, stay awake
Survive
I've got nineteen stars that I
Give your name tonight

I wanna scream, wanna scream your name
Star light, Star bright can save
You're my wish tonight

No one can catch me
The way that you catch me
The way that you keep me when I'm out of sight
What if I need you
What if I can't see you
I'm running out of life

No one can catch me
The way that you catch me
The way that you keep me when I'm out of time
What if I need you
What if I can't see you
I'm running out of life

Please
Stay awake, stay awake
Survive
I've got nineteen stars that I
Give your name tonight

And I wanna scream, wanna scream your name
Star light, star bright can save
You're my wish
You're my wish my wish
You're my wish tonight

    This song reminds me so much of my best friend and me. She can just walk out of some room and say," I'm leaving this room. Nobody cares about me, anyway. Everyone's worthless." I'm in the room and I just look down. It hurts in my heart. I do everything for her. All I can do for her. Yet, she acts as if she doesn't care. Once, at a restaurant she even hurt her brother playfully. They took it as a joke cause they knew they were playing. But, everyone started ragging on her saying what she did was wrong. When we were all leaving, she was arguing with her mother 'til my friend finally screamed, " GOD! CAN WE PLEASE JUST GO HOME SO I CAN KILL MYSELF!?" My mother wouldn't let me stay the night.-That, and my dad caught me trying to sneak out to her house that night as well. I was worried.-So,....then I cried myself to sleep hoping she wouldn't do what she yelled. She always yells that sort of stuff. We were arguing about it one day 'til finally she yells, "WHY THE FUCK DO YOU CARE!?" I just stared at her wide-eyed and answered, "WHY THE FUCK DO YOU THINK!? GOD! YOU'RE MY FUCKING BEST FRIEND! YOU ACT AS IF I DON'T EXIST! I'M TIRED! WHEN YOU YELL OUT SUICIDE THREATS AND STUFF I GET REALLY WORRIED!" And....I just went on and on. XD And,.....after that, we were silent for about 20 minutes just staring at eachother. She finally said quietly, "I'm going home."

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.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

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.
