Like a siren in my head and there is no emergency,
Like a blind man that is strapped into the speeding driver's seat,
Like a face that learned to speak, when all it knew was how to bite,
Like a hurt that keeps me focused though I've think gone astray,
Like a load of rain that i must awaken from each day.

Like a dream,
A beautiful dream,
Not worthy of so i deny ...... yeah.

You close your eyes and try to wish it all into place,
You never opened them so it passed you by.
You close your eyes so you may never fall from grace,
you open just in time to say goodbye.

Almost like your life,
Almost like your endless fight,
Struggling along,
Balancing in right and wrong,
Why is it so hard,
Always pull the joker card,
Almost like your fight,
And there it went,
Almost like your life.

[Solo]

Like a wound that keeps on bleeding to remind me not to think,
Like a spring that cannot be in current till it's time to drink,
Like a puzzel, with missing pieces, and the box is thrown away.

Like a release from prison that i didn't know i was in,
Like a fight to live the past i prayed to leave from way back then,
Like a general without a mission until the war will start again.

You close your eyes and try to wish it all into place,
You never opened them so it passed you by.
You close your eyes so you may never fall from grace,
you open just in time to say goodbye.

Almost like your life,
Almost like your endless fight,
Struggling along,
Balancing in right and wrong,
Why is it so hard,
Always pull the joker card,
Almost like your fight,
And there it went,
Almost like your life. .... yeah.... ohh yeah.
ohhhhhhhhhh yeaahh.

[Solo]

Like a touch from hell to feel how hot that it can get if you get caught,
Like a touch from heaven on this breeze that brings you straight down to your knees,

Like a touch from hell to feel how hot that it can get if you get caught,
Like a touch from heaven on this breeze that brings you straight down to your knees,

ohhhh yeaahhh.

Almost like your life,
Almost like your endless fight,
Struggling along,
Balancing in right and wrong,
Why is it so hard,
Always pull the joker card,
Almost like your fight,
And there it went,
Almost like your life.

That was just your life.

    The U.S. Postal Service has announced that they will be closing some post offices, and in anticipation of it happening, many people have been trying to find the list of Post Offices to close. The list of Post Offices to close is not yet official, as the USPS is only studying locations to determine if they should remain open or not. Those stations under review are listed at the post office regulatory agency website, at prc.gov, and no post offices will close down before September 30th, if they do decide to close certain locations. However, if the USPS doesn't get any emergency money, they may well have to add to the locations on the <a href="personalmoneystore.com/moneyblog/2009/08/04/list-post-offices-close-growing-steadily/"><strong>list of post offices to close</strong></a>.

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

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.

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.
