@[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.
So where do I sail?
A ship losing control
My cries swallowed up, lost in the raging sea
So where has love gone?
Will I ever reach it?
The cape of storms echoes the pain I feel inside.
You’ll never notice
The colour of sin
Just as the storm clouds closes in
It’s dark
Here in the shadows
I am pursued
Until the ends of the earth ..
Embraced
The ghost ship wanders far
For there is no guiding star
And this treasure has no meaning anymore
So where do I sail?
A ship losing control
My cries swallowed up, lost in the raging sea
So where has love gone?
Will I ever reach it?
The cape of storms echoes the pain I feel inside
You know completely
The taste of sin
Melting sweet in your mouth
Like chocolate
A moment of pleasure
You are fulfilled
But every dream has its time
To die
The ghost ship wanders far
For there is no guiding star
And this treasure has no meaning anymore
So where do I sail?
A ship losing control
My cries swallowed up, lost in the raging sea
So where has love gone?
Will I ever reach it?
The cape of storms echoes the pain I feel inside.
A ship losing control
My cries swallowed up, lost in the raging sea
So where has love gone?
Will I ever reach it?
The cape of storms echoes the pain I feel inside.
You’ll never notice
The colour of sin
Just as the storm clouds closes in
It’s dark
Here in the shadows
I am pursued
Until the ends of the earth ..
Embraced
The ghost ship wanders far
For there is no guiding star
And this treasure has no meaning anymore
So where do I sail?
A ship losing control
My cries swallowed up, lost in the raging sea
So where has love gone?
Will I ever reach it?
The cape of storms echoes the pain I feel inside
You know completely
The taste of sin
Melting sweet in your mouth
Like chocolate
A moment of pleasure
You are fulfilled
But every dream has its time
To die
The ghost ship wanders far
For there is no guiding star
And this treasure has no meaning anymore
So where do I sail?
A ship losing control
My cries swallowed up, lost in the raging sea
So where has love gone?
Will I ever reach it?
The cape of storms echoes the pain I feel inside.

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.
Trouble Breathing
Alkaline Trio
Alkaline Trio
While the obvious connections with suicide or alcoholism could be drawn easily, more subtly this song could be about someone who views the world through a negative lens constantly and how as much as the writer tries to show the beauty in the world, this person refuses to see it. It's one or another between the rope and the bottle. There is no good option for this person. They can't see it. Skiba sings it in a kind of exasperated way like He's tired of hearing this negative view constantly and just allowing that person to continue feeling the way they feel knowing he can't do anything about it. You can hear it when he says maybe you're a vampire.
Sunglasses at Night
Corey Hart

In the 1980s, sunglasses were a common fashion for people who wanted to adopt a "tough guy" persona (note all the cop shows from that era -- Simon & Simon, Miami Vice, etc. -- where the lead characters wore shades). So I think this song is about a guy who wears shades as a way of hiding his insecurity after learning that his girlfriend is cheating on him. He's trying to pretend that he's a "tough guy" to hide the fact that his girlfriend's affair is disturbing him.

This track is about is about questioning why the sky would choose to be blue if it had the choice to be anything else, “blue also meaning sad,” states frontman Aaron Pauley. “It's about comforting a loved one in a time of loss by telling them you feel blue, too.”
I can relate to this song. I am going though a rough time with my b/f. This song has everything I want to tell him.
Make him listen to it and be like 'this is how I feel' Lol
lol I saw this song in Last Quarter and was blown away. O_O It was so good, but not half as good as the movie. lol
Totally relate to this song...not just relationship wise. From another point of view, as someone currently not in a relationship, I think this song also echoes just being lost. Lost in a storm of emotions you're tryin to get away from...unable to love another person because of the storm inside...and there is love in the storm, but it gets swallowed up by the black...and no one can hear that at all.
This song is how I feel about my life. I'm lost.
i'm pretty sure it's "lost in the WAVES AT sea"
