Master of disguise move unseen
Shadow on the night silent hunter
Appetite aroused by the smell of your fear
Driven by desire instinct and hunger

And I will survive while you die
I will survive while you die
And I will survive while you die
I will survive while you die

In your slow demise mercy denied
Bitter is the taste of your last breath
Choking on a bite from the apple of eden
Victim of my lies deceit and betrayal

And I will survive while you die
I will survive while you die
And I will survive while you die
I will survive while you die

Shed my skin steal your soul
Again and again from the birth of time

And I will survive while you die
I will survive while you die
And I will survive while you die
I will survive while you die

Shed my skin steal your soul
Again and again from the birth of time

Steal your soul shed my skin
Over and over until the end of time

Look into the eyes of fate
Destiny you can't escape
Precious life that you now chase
Slips away as you're erased

Seasons come and seasons go
What will come you'll never know
Future is a mystery
For this lock there is no key

So you pray but I say it's too late

Running from the hands of doom
Crawling back into the womb
Look of horror on your face
Feeble human wasting space

Time has come to say goodbye
And a life lived in a lie
Your tomorrow is now gone
The devil incarnate lives on

So you pray but I say it's too late

    This song is awesome. I think it means that religious people waste so much time praying and hoping for good things to happen that they don't realize that the power lies in their hands the whole time.

Light Up The Sky
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
@[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
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.
