So you ask for my opinion well what is there to say
To be honest and just foolish won't make you want to stay
You've got to go on and get moving and I can't do that for you
Got so many plans and so much you want to do

Love is tough, time is rough
Love is tough, time is rough on me

Well I see you've got your bible your delusion imagery
Well I don't need your eternity or your meaning to feel free
I just live because I love to and that's enough you see
So don't come preach about morality that's just human sense to me

Love is tough, time is rough
Love is tough, time is rough on me
On me, on me

And it's one life and it's this life and it's beautiful
And it's one life and it's this life and it's beautiful
And it's one life and it's this life and it's beautiful
And it's one life and it's this life and it's beau-beau-beau-beautiful

Love is tough, time is rough on me

    Song Meaning

    I don't think this song is directed to a boyfriend or any one person in particular. I think it's just anyone who is overly religious and preachy about it. The person speaking is either an atheist or a secularist, and they wish to live life because they love to, not because they feel like they need to dedicate all their time to some nosy control-freak up in the sky. :)

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

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.
