Resolute a stance of defiance
Always teetering on the bring
Nothing can hold you back when
When you're not holding back a thing
Open arms (we) embrace tomorrow
Closed fists, tarnishing today
We're not afraid to open our mouths and scream
We believe in what we say

[chorus:]
Like a whisper to the dusk
An oath against the shadows
Denying the dark
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn
Like a prayer unto the dawn
In arms against the shadows
Destroying the dark
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'till the break of dawn

Covered in sweat and blood
Yet still out heads held high
Actions have consequences
When you life for foolish pride
Been careful not to lose ourselves
Stand together one passion one hate
We believe in a better tomorrow
We believe in what we say

[chorus:]
Like a whisper to the dusk
An oath against the shadows
Denying the dark
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn
Like a prayer unto the dawn
In arms against the shadows
Destroying the dark
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'till the break of dawn
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'till the break of dawn

We'll fight out battles we'll wage our wars
Settle the scores with honor and blood
We'll wear out scars like medals of hope
Like medals of hope
Like medals of hope
We'll fight out battles we'll wage our wars
Settle the scores with honor and blood
We'll wear out scars like medals of hope
Like medals of hope
Like medals of hope

[chorus:]
Like a whisper to the dusk
An oath against the shadows
Denying the dark
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn
Like a prayer unto the dawn
In arms against the shadows
Destroying the dark (whisper to the dusk)
In arms against the shadows
Destroying the dark (whisper to the dusk)
In arms against the shadows
Destroying the dark (whisper to the dusk )
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'till the break of dawn
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'till the break of dawn
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'till the break of dawn
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'till the break of dawn

    well, as I said, this song reminds me of an anthem to the men and women fighting for this country right now.

    "Resolute a stance of defiance always teetering on the brink" --- You form as one but it's hard to keep control when you're being shot at by the enemy.

    "Covered in sweat and blood yet still our heads held high" --- this is the part of the song that really sticks out to me...all of them are fighting for us; bleeding, sweating, exhausted, yet, they're still fighting for what they believe in.

    "Actions have consequences when you live for foolish pride." --- Don't get too big-headed because it'll surely catch up with you.

    "stand together one passion one hate" --- they're all unified as one. they all have the same objective.

    And obviously, the last part of the song reflects the men and women in uniform. For all who was wounded, they'll definitely use their scars as medals of hope because they know they fought for something worth fighting for // a better tomorrow.

    I have a friend in iraq right now and he came so close to dying. his humvee got blown up and he lost some of his hearing and now he's diagnosed with post-pardum depression. He's coming back home in November, and I can't wait.

    It is about living life with no darkness or depression, "an oath against the shadows, denying the dark".

    "We fight our battles, we wage our wars, settle the scores with honor and blood, we wear our scars like medals of hope"

    This has to do with learning from bad experiences and using knowledge to follow the right path in life, being proud that you once experienced pain, and you have the strength to carry on through it.

    this song gives me strength! it is self explanatory... it's called honor and that's what it's about... honor. i think this song was meant to give hope to the hopeless,

    Like a whisper to the dusk An oath against the shadows Denying the dark FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn Like a prayer unto the dawn In arms against the shadows Destroying the dark FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'till the break of dawn

    if that doesn't make you wanna rise above and fight, there is somethin wrong with you. to me this is probably the most inspirational songs i've ever heard from a rock band. maybe i'm fucked up i'm not sure but, anytime i feel like givin up i listen to this song, and givin up just isn't an option afterwards.

    the only song i can proudly say i like from LSPA

    You guys might be right but I was thinking more that this song was an anthem to the men at war right now for our country.

    i have ideas of how it's expressed that way, but unfortunately I have to head out...probably when I get back I'll explain myself

    crush, i used to think that way too 'til i realized that the gas HASN'T gone down at all!!! ...how can we be fighting for something that is only fluxuating by pennies. Don't get me wrong, I hate bush as much as the next person but gas/oil isn't what this war is about.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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”

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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
