In this desert, in darkness
Lying with the gun across his chest
Pretending he's heartless
As the fire flashes in the sky
He was fragile and frozen
When the bullet took away his friend
And now he's somehow more broken

He's pulling his weapons to aside
Loading it full of his goodbyes
Holding an enemy across the line
He's pulling his weapons to aside
Loading it full of his goodbyes
Holding an enemy across the line

Sweating and shaking
Lying with her hands across her chest
She wakes with her cravings
As the fire flashes in her eye
She was fragile and frozen
When the needle took away her friend
But now she's somehow more broken

She's pulling her weapons to aside
Loading it full of her goodbyes
Holding an enemy across the line
She's pulling her weapons to aside
Loading it full of her goodbyes
Holding an enemy across the line

With every battle he's choosing
With every fight he's loosing
His enemy's not far behind
With every promise she's broken
With every lie she's spoken
Her enemy's not far behind

It's your time
It's your time
It's your time
It's your time

He's pulling his weapons to aside
Loading it full of his goodbyes
Holding an enemy across the line
She's pulling her weapons to aside
Loading it full of her goodbyes
Holding an enemy across the line

With every battle he's choosing
With every fight he's loosing
His enemy's not far behind
With every promise she's broken
With every lie she's spoken
Her enemy's not far behind

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
