Ich will kein Mensch mehr sein
Ich möchte dieses Leben nicht
Ich will kein Mensch mehr sein
Wir gehen unter in dem Licht
Ich liebe Menschen nicht
Sie sehen ihre Fehler nicht
Sie sehen ihre Fehler nicht
Ich liebe Menschen
Nicht

Die Bomben fallen herab
Schaufeln ihrer Väter Grab
Wir gingen einen Schritt zu weit
Mit dieser Menschenheit

Wir sind die Geißel dieser Welt
Und wenn der letzte Vorhang fällt
Dann gehen wir unter in dem Licht
Das unsre Herzen kalt zerbricht

Ich will kein Mensch mehr sein
Ich will kein Mensch mehr sein
Ich will kein Mensch mehr sein
Und wir sehen uns're Zeit ist reif

Und wenn uns're Seelen untergeh’n
Dann werden wir vielleicht die Dummheit versteh’n
Die uns hinfort getrieben in den Tod
Die Menschheit, sie ist ständig von sich selbst bedroht

Ich sehe dich
Noch einmal in dem hellen Licht
Bevor es auseinander bricht
Und in uns're Herzen sticht

Ich liebe dich
Doch liebe ich diese Menschen nicht
Sie sehen ihre Fehler nicht
Und schicken uns das Todeslicht

Ich will kein Mensch mehr sein
Ich will kein Mensch mehr sein
Ich will kein Mensch mehr sein
Und wir sehen uns're Zeit ist reif

Und wenn uns're Seelen untergeh’n
Dann werden wir vielleicht die Dummheit versteh’n
Die uns hinfort getrieben in den Tod
Die Menschheit sie ist ständig von sich selbst bedroht

Das Licht…
Das Licht heilt keine Zeit und keine Wunden…

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Punchline
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.
