Down in Flames

Nothingface

AHHHHHHHHH
I can see them and they raid on our ass
We gotta move quick if it has to think fast
They never saw us comin but now they'll see us goin
When it's over it'll happen in a flash
We're the brand new crops in the kid
We're happy as hell and we don't give a shit
Just like I'm talkin we've gone worldwide
We'll never stop the corporate house is on fire

We are the second chance
Your rules are broken now
We are religion and reason
A second chance

So once you get us and you can't get it right
When you wonder why we wanna start a fight
You should see it comin
But till you see it fallin
When it's over it'll happen in a flash
Where the core prank crown makes us sin
We're takin control and we're savin the saintist
Just like a demo you build on lies
That's why I disappear it right before your eyes

We are the second chance
Your rules are broken now
We are religion and reason
A second chance

Upsetting cries(Upsetting cries)
So find your day
Upsetting cries (Upsetting cries)

I can see them and they raid on our ass
We gotta move quick if it has to think fast
They never saw us comin but now they'll see us goin
When it's over it'll happen in a flash
We're the brand new crops in the kid
We're happy as hell and we don't give a shit
Just like I'm talkin we've gone worldwide
We'll never stop the corporate house is on fire

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.

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,

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

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.
