Monster In My Closet

Myrath

I feel the wicked mist surrounds me now
I hold my breath and wait in fear and in sorrow
It crawls at night in the dark
Whispers pain into my mind

My guilty thoughts are going back and forth
To ripe the fruits of my madness to season
Monster in my closet
Consuming my soul alive

I will wait for the sun
To make my demons run
After they fed overnight
It's consuming my life
Burning deep in my soul
It will come back tonight

The pain is real, it's no more a fiction
It comes at night and wants my submission
I can feel that I'm loosing my sanity
I am longing for some peace and silence
I can feed it with my lust and vanity
I am sinking deep into the violence

I will wait for the sun
To make my demons run
After they fed overnight
It's consuming my life
Burning deep in my soul
It will come back tonight

I can feel that I'm loosing my sanity
I am longing for some peace and silence
I can feed it with my lust and vanity
I am sinking deep into the violence

    Song Meaning

    Vocalist Zaher Zorgati says of the song, that it’s about a personal issue. Everyone has a monster hunting for you, it’s a battle between yourself and something that it’s totally different for you. And, again, it can suit to everything. It may symbolize your battle with some sort of stress, or against drug addiction, or against your past.

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.

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,
