I see you
And I'm waiting to make my move
But I’m scared
And I know that you've got
Better things to do

I'll touch your hand
And I'm wearing my heart on my sleeve
It's cliché, I know
But baby, it's the price we pay

To get the things we've wanted
And get the things we've left behind
It's what you've wanted
What you needed
What you've always dreamt about

Don't take another step
Don't breathe another breath
Unless you're coming back to me

I'm trusting you
And I'm taking the long way home
I'm leaving
And it's not because of you
Will you just hold me tight
And never let me go?
I know this whole thing's wrong
But baby, we're invincible

If I could take these words
And fill them up with air
I'd fly you to the stars
So we can disappear

If I could take your heart
And keep it close to me
I swear it will not break
I swear it will not bleed

And I believe
Just anything you say
If you would tell me to get lost
I'd ask "How far away?"

And now it's getting late
And I can't keep my eyes open
My heart's open for you

I'm trusting you
And I'm taking the long way home
I'm leaving
And it's not because of you
Will you just hold me tight
And never let me go?
I know this whole thing's wrong
But baby, we're invincible

(Will you just hold me tight
And never let me go?
I know this whole thing's wrong
But baby, we're invincible)

Will you just hold me tight (I see you)
And never let me go? (I'm waiting to make my move)
I know this whole thing's wrong (But I'm scared and I know)
But baby, we're invincible (That you've got better things to do)

I'm trusting you
And I'm taking the long way home
I'm leaving
And it's not because of you
Will you just hold me tight
And never let me go?
I know this whole thing's wrong
But baby, we're invincible

I'm trusting you (If I could take these words)
And I'm taking the long way home (And fill them up with air)
I'm leaving (I'd fly you to the stars)
And it's not because of you (So we can disappear)
Will you just hold me tight (If I could take your heart)
And never let me go (And keep it close to me)
I know this whole thing's wrong (I swear it will not break)
But baby, we're invincible (I swear it will not bleed)

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

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.

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.
