This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I was leaving with the drunks
Singing Sinatra loud
I let go of love
Once it finally had me figured out
I was buried like a treasure
No one came and marked the spot
Some backward pleasures
Started tying tired knots
Sad can't catch me
Or call me baby now
When it's all I use to believe
If the sun don't light
And the night won't turn
We'll get a room at the end of the world
And we'll rewrite all the wrongs we've learned
Safe in our room at the end of the world
These streets are haunted
With ghosts who wait on luck to come
They sleep with hornets
Then they wonder why they wake up stung
Sad can't catch me
Or call me baby now, oh now
When its all I use to believe
If the sun don't light
And the night won't turn
We'll get a room at the end of the world
And we'll rewrite all the wrongs we've learned
Safe in our room at the end of the world
One heart is never enough alone
One heart is never enough alone
Come on come on
Come on and dance with me, love
Just come on and dance with me love
'cause I need it, I need it now
I can see I can see it, I believe it
If the sun don't light
And the night won't turn
We'll get a room at the end of the world
And we'll rewrite all the wrongs we've learned
Safe in our room,
We'll be safe in our room at the end of the world
'Cause I can see it
You and me at the end of the world
Singing Sinatra loud
I let go of love
Once it finally had me figured out
I was buried like a treasure
No one came and marked the spot
Some backward pleasures
Started tying tired knots
Sad can't catch me
Or call me baby now
When it's all I use to believe
If the sun don't light
And the night won't turn
We'll get a room at the end of the world
And we'll rewrite all the wrongs we've learned
Safe in our room at the end of the world
These streets are haunted
With ghosts who wait on luck to come
They sleep with hornets
Then they wonder why they wake up stung
Sad can't catch me
Or call me baby now, oh now
When its all I use to believe
If the sun don't light
And the night won't turn
We'll get a room at the end of the world
And we'll rewrite all the wrongs we've learned
Safe in our room at the end of the world
One heart is never enough alone
One heart is never enough alone
Come on come on
Come on and dance with me, love
Just come on and dance with me love
'cause I need it, I need it now
I can see I can see it, I believe it
If the sun don't light
And the night won't turn
We'll get a room at the end of the world
And we'll rewrite all the wrongs we've learned
Safe in our room,
We'll be safe in our room at the end of the world
'Cause I can see it
You and me at the end of the world

Holiday

@[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.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
The correct lyrics:
I was leaving with the drunks Singing Sinatra loud I let go of love Once it finally had me figured out
I was buried like a treasure But no one ever came to mark the spot So I got good at pleasure And started tying tighter knots
Sad can't catch me Call me baby now When it's all I used to believe
If the sun don't light And the night won't turn We'll get a room at the end of the world And we'll rewrite all the wrongs we've learned Safe in our room at the end of the world
These streets are haunted With ghosts who wait on luck to come They sleep with hornets And they wonder why they wake up stung
The sad can't catch me Call me baby now, oh now When it's all I used to believe
If the sun don't light And the night won't turn We'll get a room at the end of the world And we'll rewrite all the wrongs we've learned Safe in our room at the end of the world
One heart is never enough alone, One heart is never enough alone Come on, come on Come on and dance with me, love Just come on and dance with me love Cause I need it, I need it now I can see it, I can see it, I believe it
If the sun don't light And the night won't turn We'll get a room at the end of the world And we'll rewrite all the wrongs we've learned Safe in our room We'll be safe in our room at the end of the world
I can't believe this doesn't have many comments.. this song is amazing.
I love this song! I feel like it says so much. Above all, I think it is about 2 people who love each other so much that no matter what were to happen in their lives, as long as they were together, then they would be happy.
If the sun don't light/And the night won't turn/We'll get a room at the end of the world/And we'll rewrite all the wrongs we've learned/Safe in our room at the end of the world
If the entire world ended, if we were together, we would be safe. We would learn from our mistakes and we be forever happy. That is what this song says to me.
This person had spent some time alone (or in various failed relationships), but once he found the right person, he understood that it wasn't about what you did in life, but about who you did it with. I love this song so much. It is truly beautiful. It doesn't matter what you do, it about who you do it with. The world will one day end, for you or for everyone, and only the person or people you love will be with you! Beautiful!
This tune is just .. awesome. Honestly, I'm very surprised that it only has three comments so far. I feel this positive, happy hope when I listen to it, from the chords and pace, down to the meaning behind it.
First off - the first line is "I was weaving with the drunks." I see this incorrectly worded as "leaving" all over the Net. Arg! Catch one (or more!) of his live performances on youTube and watch him sing it.
The first couple of stanzas reveal that he was detached from loving anyone, it seems by choice.
"I let go of love, once it finally had me figured out"
and perhaps learned to embrace being detached in the way of relationships.
"So I got good at pleasure, and started tying tighter knots"
At some point, things turn around and he has someone that he believes will change that for him, or at least has it in him to take the chance with someone to "rewrite all the wrongs they've learned." Because it's not going to ever be enough to be alone.
My favorite line is the way he sings, what I think is a reference to the Sinatra song "Come dance with me" (check the lyrics)
"Come on, come on, come on in here dance with me love. OH come on, just come on and dance with me love"
What girl would turn down a request made with such feeling? I absolutely LOVe the heart he puts into that phrase - it totally makes the song.
Aaaaah... (sigh) :-) What a great song! This track reminds me of "Girl on the Roof" by David Mead. Fountains of Wayne: "I'll Do the Driving" Real Estate: "Crime"
