Dorch an nochd tha'n t-Eilean
Dathan air am fuadach far nam beann
Tha faileas a'tuiteam bhon an Stor
Mar t-fhalt dorch a suabadh do cheann

Horo Mhairi o
Horo Mhairi o
Horo Mhairi o
'S mi 'gad ionndrain ho ro

De math an tobar gun an t-uisge
De math an corp gun cridh'
Nam biodh neart an Stoir 'nam lamhan
Bhiodh sinn le'r cheile's an Eilean a rithis

Horo Mhairi o
Horo Mhairi o
Horo Mhairi o
'S mi 'gad ionndrain ho ro

'S doch nach fhaigh sinn neamh no beatha eile
Nuair a dhuineas suilean aig deireadh lath
Ach fhuair mi mo neamh an seo's an aite
Far an d'thug thu dhimh do lamh's do cridhe slan

Horo Mhairi o
Horo Mhairi o
Horo Mhairi o
'S mi 'gad ionndrain ho ro

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.
