Before last night my heart was grey
Like my country is today
Big kaleidoscope I see
A thousand people gaze at me

To break the ice I start to sing
About a cell called everything
A cell so big a world like small
Is suitable to say it all

Is the fighting over?
I lost track
Like a wave it all comes back
Same kaleidoscope I see

Someone standing next to me
It's hard to do, it's hard to try
Hard to stop wondering why
Do I keep filing every case

When the answer's on your face
You can't see her but you do
Music is transparent too
So join me, sing with all your might

Hallelujah, praise tonight
Far away and long ago
Wintertime meant feeling low
Now every single star looks bright

God was in my bed last night

    I don't think the song is really about believing in some kind of God. It's about surviving a depression, about seeing the beuatiful things of life again, about friends who shold your hand...God is just the image she uses for that very special moment when all at once everything became clear... But who am I to pretend to know what the author meant with this song ;)

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.

Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

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.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
