[Bliss:]
I guess that I'm just a jar drifting by the tide
And I hope that a star will lift me to reside
In the hands of a single soul that can relate
To these crawling, my fingers cold, still relate
By the force, that draws the cogs in my clock work
The lights my way through the fog in the hot dirt
In the youth its just blowing in the wind
And ya see the truth and they throw you in a spin
Its a vicious cycle it wont clean the stain
And I think it's vital I dont seem the same
When I look in the mirror see the long hall bound
When I'm stumbling, crumbling and it all falls down
Like do ya feel the rythym and like
Will ya still be livin a lie
Will ya kneel and listen to yourself
The only person who can peel the prison walls away
They all fall to dust
And ya'll are saying we can call it trust
And if we call it trust
Then all of us
Can get down together and live tall and just
Cause ive never plucked an eyelash out and wished it goodbye
I said ive never plucked an eyelash out and wished this could fly
Into books, poems, stars bloom and movies
Theme park themes, dark cartoons and scoobie
It sooths me
Its all the same dont confuse me
Or to video games create the music
Just use it
Children, thankyou very much
I'm aware that you're building a sanctuary up
Cause reality creates the sadness
We rely on these things to escape the madness
Like doin those "that I can tell by your stare"
I'll come around and said we're both aware
My first tv murder the night in anti-poor
My hole into a closet of 1984
But when I wrote something lovely with my ink
I stopped being humpty dumpty on the brink
Of losing my balance I found it shit
It was a point man
The feeling I get when im alone but we join hands
Chilling out but im bound by a necklace
I dont know but I get a little reckless
And if I dont make it to the end of the road
I dont even know the weight that i will unload
I wish I could relapse another time
Turn back the tap discovered rhymes
Back and forth, forth and back
Ya'll pulled me in but cord went snap

[Chorus x2: Eso:]
Me in my room writing rhymes
To listen when you barbeque outside or
In doors jam packed in the club
Goin 60 in ya car you can feel it in your blood

Lets build a world of our own so start to gather rocks
The shire's known chatterbox
To build a home for un-fartherd kids
And guide the population across the harbour bridge
The hardest is controlling
By Watchdog Water Dragons
I'll never stop writing
Thats just a great authour's passion
To write a million books and not look back at one of them
And to notice when the children look
It's something that the buildings took
From their natural purpose
And in a state like this I could never be nervous
This is my house, my crib, my kindom
Where the floor-boards creek and the kids keep singing
We live each season
Just to give beats reason
Step into my house, all kids leave dreamin
Vanilla sky walking with a halo and some cannabis
My t-shirt reads minoritys in managment
And yeh thats right I'll die for this habbitat
Fly young poet, fly and bring the majic back
This nest is home, home is nest
I wanna rest my dome I wanna hold your breast
If the world would give me a chance and I could witre on by
And fly just like a kite in the sky
See this matchstick, signifies my love
It wont burn out it will only rise above
What a view from here
We survived the flood
Too many blind and deaf to hear the cries of doves
Anymore cause the parks been crushed by the building
And the view has been, replaced by a ceiling
Plus the carpark was a paradise underneath
That ground wont be free to breathe
So i ride on a dragon and my couch is a tiger
To stop the towns flooding and the houses on fire
But no thats not true reality's a bitch
Stuck in a catagory when your sanity is shit
So, capture my love whenever you feel it
They say thats just mud, he doesn't have feelings
Well I do and its true I cover the canvis
Me and strawberry fields looking for answers
And i wanted was a mansion for my mother
Phat houses all around the world for my brothers
Flowers in the pavment
A world that sings
Studios in every basement
And girls with wings

[Chorus: x4]
Me in my room writing rhymes
To listen when you barbeque outside or
In doors jam packed in the club
Goin 60 in ya car you can feel it in your blood

    honest to god, was this page written by Asians or something? i mean, "trilgen"? that's not even a word, it's "children." and "eyelace"? that one isn't even difficult, it's "eyelash." eh.

    It is a beautiful song though, I really can't believe Cass is the only person who's commented it! Bliss n Eso are top.

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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”

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

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.
