Candy Coated Razorblade

Hate in the Box

Won't you wrap me up in cellopane
I want to be new and shiny for you
And if these holes you made
Should be too small for me to breathe
Then give us a kiss goodnight
I'm ready to die for you
Let's die tonight
Cause all along our love was like a
Candy coated razorblade
And I've been choking on the pain
Of loving you for so long, I can't live without it
Every kiss is bloodstained
You stand me up, your favorite toy
And put me on display
You knock me down and let me fall
You always like to watch me break
You go snip snip snip on my heartstrings
Watch the blood drip, tear it out, be done with it
Now I'm just another doll with an empty chest
Nothing but a scar left, that will never heal
Because of you. So give us a kiss goodnight
I'm ready to die for you, let's die tonight

    Girl is in love with Boy, who continues to hurt her, but Girl continues to be drawn into him by kind things he does, says, etc. Girl is definitely addicted.

    Love this song. o.O

Standing On The Edge Of Summer

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.

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.

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.
