Guilty martyr upon the cross
disciples killing
for the written cause
confusion chaos
the sinless birth
new day dawning
on a grave new world

open wounds uopon cruel hands
reviving fear
outlasting the prayers

in time the flesh
and blood will die
get on your knees your blind
you're fucking blind
didn't know didn't see
you swallowed me
all of your life

choking it down
head spins
purging it
know for yourself
in time the flesh
and blood will die
you swallowed it all of your life
get on your knees your blind
you're blind

from the ashes of liars
grow on the roses of hope
burn the steeples and spires
hang each tear from a rope

sin before thy name in vain
cursed deceit splinters in shame
this will be the last impression
your mind will ever grieve
this is your blackest procession
burning your souls eternity
desolation opens the seal
upon her forehead
was a name written
myster babylon the great
the mother of harlots
and abomination of the earth
and i saw the woman drunken
with the blood of the saints
and with the blood
of the martyrs of jesus
and when i saw her
i wondered
with great admiration

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.

Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
