The song "Fortnight" by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word "fortnight" shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
Te busqué, te gritaba en mi lamento
Y cada noche me soñaba entre tu piel
Y te inventé y eras suave como el viento
Y en tu cuerpo yo creía enloquecer
Y al fin te tengo, para quererte, para adorarte
Para seguir por siempre
Perdidos en la noche, ocultos en la bruma
Viviendo esta locura, muriendo de ternura tú y yo
No habrá un reproche
Que te llene de amargura
No habrá más que una lluvia
De besos que se siembran en tu piel
Tu amor me das
Y te amo más
Bajo este cielo que nos cubre con su manto de silencio
Es tan inmenso lo que yo siento
Cuando me juras que serás para mí
Yo te extrañaba, era grande mi tormento
Y en mi mente yo creí volverte a ver
Te esperaba junto al mar
No me consolaba el tiempo
Y me moría por llegarte a enamorar
Y al fin te tengo
Para quererte, para adorarte, para seguir por siempre
Perdidos en la noche, ocultos en la bruma
Viviendo esta locura, muriendo de ternura tú y yo
No habrá un reproche
Que te llene de amargura
No habrá más que una lluvia
De besos que se siembran en tu piel
Tu amor me das
Y te amo más
Bajo este cielo que nos cubre con su manto de silencio
Es tan inmenso lo que yo siento
Cuando me juras que serás para mí
Ay ay ay como me gusta tenerte
Dos corazones unidos queriéndose hasta la muerte
Ay ay ay como me gusta tenerte
Que lindo es verme en tus ojos cuando me siento perdido
Yo solo quiero tus besos, tus besos que son mi abrigo
Ay ay ay como me gusta tenerte
Dos corazones unidos queriéndose hasta la muerte
Y tú me has rescatado del olvido
Y me llenaste de esperanza
Y así por ti me siento vivo
Y así por ti volvió la calma
Y cada noche me soñaba entre tu piel
Y te inventé y eras suave como el viento
Y en tu cuerpo yo creía enloquecer
Y al fin te tengo, para quererte, para adorarte
Para seguir por siempre
Perdidos en la noche, ocultos en la bruma
Viviendo esta locura, muriendo de ternura tú y yo
No habrá un reproche
Que te llene de amargura
No habrá más que una lluvia
De besos que se siembran en tu piel
Tu amor me das
Y te amo más
Bajo este cielo que nos cubre con su manto de silencio
Es tan inmenso lo que yo siento
Cuando me juras que serás para mí
Yo te extrañaba, era grande mi tormento
Y en mi mente yo creí volverte a ver
Te esperaba junto al mar
No me consolaba el tiempo
Y me moría por llegarte a enamorar
Y al fin te tengo
Para quererte, para adorarte, para seguir por siempre
Perdidos en la noche, ocultos en la bruma
Viviendo esta locura, muriendo de ternura tú y yo
No habrá un reproche
Que te llene de amargura
No habrá más que una lluvia
De besos que se siembran en tu piel
Tu amor me das
Y te amo más
Bajo este cielo que nos cubre con su manto de silencio
Es tan inmenso lo que yo siento
Cuando me juras que serás para mí
Ay ay ay como me gusta tenerte
Dos corazones unidos queriéndose hasta la muerte
Ay ay ay como me gusta tenerte
Que lindo es verme en tus ojos cuando me siento perdido
Yo solo quiero tus besos, tus besos que son mi abrigo
Ay ay ay como me gusta tenerte
Dos corazones unidos queriéndose hasta la muerte
Y tú me has rescatado del olvido
Y me llenaste de esperanza
Y así por ti me siento vivo
Y así por ti volvió la calma

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
Holiday
Bee Gees
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.

Amazing

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.
