You are enemy
You are my hated enemy
I am enemy
Number one rated enemy

I'm labeled enemy
I am your mortal enemy
My actions, enemy
Make me your bitter enemy

All the world around enemy, ow-ow
They're tearing up the ground enemy, ow-ow
They're drawn in by the sound, enemy, enemy
I must eliminate my enemy, ow-ow

Enemy, ow-ow
Enemy, ow-ow
Enemy, enemy
I must eliminate my enemy

Your people, enemy
My people's hated, enemy
What are you? Enemy
Though a created enemy

I terminate the enemy
Eradicate the hated enemy
I am an enemy
My very greatest enemy

All the world around enemy, ow-ow
They're tearing up the ground enemy, ow-ow
They're drawn in by the sound, enemy, enemy
I must eliminate my enemy, ow-ow

Enemy, ow-ow
Enemy, ow-ow
Enemy, enemy
I must eliminate my enemy

So, you try to tell me that you love life
Then find another way to kill life
You try to tell me that you love life
Then find another way to kill life

You try to tell me you love life
Then find another way to kill
You try to tell me that you love life
Then find another way to ki-, ow

Wanting, love life
Needing, kill life
Wanting, love life
Needing, kill life

Enemy

    I don't really see how this could be applied to God/Satan, but hey, that's just my perspective.I think it's just about general conflict: war, personal, i could even see it applied to a sporting match, but I'm sure it's probably just a lil' bit deeper than that.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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,

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.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
