All Night

Houses

We ask that You would fill us with fire
I don't want to sing yesteryear's songs
I don't want to pray yesteryear's prayers
I want fresh fire alive on the inside
Call us again to the secret place
That we would sit with You for hours on end
And experience Your beauty and Your power
My eyes are heavy I've been praying all night
My soul's awake I've been praying all night
Out of bed I've been praying all night
Out of my head I've been praying all night
My eyes are heavy I've been praying all night
My soul's awake I've been praying all night
Out of bed I've been praying all night
Out of my head I've been praying all night
My eyes are heavy I've been praying all night
My soul's awake I've been praying all night
Out of my bed I've been praying all night
Out of my head I've been praying all night
My eyes are heavy I've been praying all night
My soul's awake I've been praying all night
Out of my bed I've been praying all night
Out of my head I've been praying all night
My eyes are heavy I've been praying all night
My soul's awake I've been praying all night
Out of my bed I've been praying all night
Out of my head I've been praying all night
Your Kingdom come I've been praying all night
Your will be done I've been praying all night
Over my life, over this fight
Over my family I've been praying all night
Your Kingdom come I've been praying all night
Your will be done I've been praying all night
Over my life, over this fight
Over my family I've been praying all night
Over my family I've been praying all night

    Follow the path that you made through the holes in my chest I found all your pretty things tied up, the knots were reversed Stay up all night in the color, so dreams you project But you find me alone when the sun doesn't need some more rest

    And I just want to see you around, I just want you back to my (?) And I thought that I figured it out I burned all the video tapes that we watched as a kid

    Stay up all night in a daze where your body might win Find me alone in the morning with all of our sins

Spirit Within
Bertoldi Brothers
Warren wanted a Beach Boys thing for this one, and Carl Wilson and Billy Hinsche came in, with Carl arranging the vocal parts. The other harmony vocalists (credited as the "Gentlemen Boys") were Jackson Browne, J.D. Souther, Zevon's longtime backers Waddy Wachtel and Jorge Calderon, and Linda Rondstadt/Stone Poneys guitarist Kenny Edwards.

Techno Ted
Audioslave
Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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"
