Worlds are burning out to the endless shame of this mistaken way
We wither on and on in this game we play
Go ring on the bells of war and head straight into the lion's cage
You went and told your secrets here

So you can take to the grave
cause there is no stopping me, so long
Love hanging, dead man's curtain
Believe in me as I believe in this

The end is now starting
oh, so please just take your seat
and live your last moments waving goodbye, desperately
Having a nice day while we're
swinging from gallows perched atop
Fool sit still watching priests playing god

Spill on through killing fields, the blood of desperate men can change
The thirst of a boy who breathes again

So you can take to the grave
but there is no stopping me
Love hanging, dead man's curtain
Believe in me and I've been holding you back

The end is now starting
oh, so please just take your seat
and live your last moments waving goodbye, desperately
Having a nice day while we're
swinging from gallow's perched atop
Fool sit still watching priests playing god

There is no room for words against them now
Cause you're my guiding light, they couldn't make a sound
Is there a way to say? To incriminate? Oh, listen to me
Oh, well baby, open that door

So you can take to the grave
cause there is no stopping me, so long
Love hanging, dead man's curtain
Believe in me as I believe in this

The end is now starting
oh, so please just take your seat
and live your last moments waving goodbye, desperately
Having a nice day while we're
swinging from gallow's perched atop
Fool sit still watching priests playing god

    I don't think these are very accurate, I guessed the best I can. If anyone can decipher them better, let me know and I'll edit it.

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.

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.

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.
