You've played the part of a senseless victim
Long enough to bear the burden of hate
Now nothing but a martyr
A plague that leaves you frail and writhing

Oh God where is my trust now,
I'd take it back if I had the chance

Set your sights on annihilation
Screaming this will be the wrath that breaks you down
It all comes full circle now
Full circle now

Invested lavishly into an empty sentiment

You crept away so foolishly
Into the hands of the depraved
Hands that beat your pride away

Set your sights on annihilation
Screaming this will be the wrath that breaks you down
It all comes full circle now
So release me, or release all doubt
I've wasted all of my time on you till now

set your sights on annihilation

Oh God where is my trust now,
I'd take it back if I had the chance

Set your sights on annihilation
Screaming this will be the wrath that breaks you down
It all comes full circle now
So release me, or release all doubt
I've wasted all of my time on you till now

Oh God where is my trust now,
(You've played the part of (a) martyr long enough to lose yourself)
I'd take it back if I had the chance
(It comes full circle now)
(This will be the wrath)

    This song could be about Godzilla, seeing how INK likes to base their songs off of horror movies.

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.

Bron-Y-Aur Stomp
Led Zeppelin
This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.
