Where The Sun Never Sleeps

Stick To Your Guns

I live in the valley by the sea
Lined with the scent of orange trees
This is the place that's always loved me
I wake where the sun never sleeps
In-between the mountains and where the water and sky meet

This is the place I was raised
My family and my friends
This is my everything
This is the place I was saved
My beginning and end
I wouldn't trade it for anything

And just because I leave you doesn't mean you leave my mind
I think about you all the time
This is my solid ground, this sun isn't going down, down, never going down
And I have seen a lot of amazing things
But there's no feeling like coming home brings
Now nothing can bring me down, down, down, never bring me down

Just look at the view
If this is wrong then I don't wanna be true
If you're not here then I don't wanna be you
Even if I tried I couldn't forget
It only makes sense that my heart belongs where the sun sets
And when I start to smell the salt from the sea
I know I'm close
I'm coming home

And just because I leave you doesn't mean you leave my mind
I think about you all the time
This is my solid ground, this sun isn't going down, down, never going down
And I have seen a lot of amazing things
But there's no feeling like coming home brings
Now nothing can bring me down, down, down, never bring me down

And just because I leave you doesn't mean you leave my mind
I think about you all the time
This is my solid ground, this sun isn't going down, down, never going down
And I have seen a lot of amazing things
But there's no feeling like coming home brings
Now nothing can bring me down, down, down, never bring me down

I think about you all the time
Down, down, never bring me down
Down, down, never bring me down

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”

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

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.
