Like Himalayan cold winter
These jaws of kali yuga
Yeah it's a crazy kind of cold
A lifeless slumber in a stranglehold

Yeah tibet she can't even touch this
I'd rather freeze in her forests
We're in a spiritual winter
And I long for the one who is

Fire!
Amongst the dreamers
You are in my heart

Like the sun on the icecaps
My only friend in the prison
The long lost meaning to the story story
The divine and ancient wisdom

How could it be that you've graced my
Night?
Like a pardon from the governor
Like a transplant from the donor

Like a gift from the one who is

Fire!
Amongst the dreamers
You are in my heart
Fire!

Amongst the dreamers
You are in my heart

In a place where everything dies
It's you I follow
See by the fire
Of my darlin', yeah!

Fire!
Amongst the dreamers
You are, you are
In my heart

Like a pardon from the governor
Like a transplant from the donor
Like a kiss, like a kiss, from my darlin'
Yeah!

    This is one of my favorite Live songs. Being a Tibetan Buddhist I can really relate to it. Saying Tibet's a sacred place - best to die a physical death there than die a spiritual death elsewhere. According to Hinduism and Buddhism we are in a very dark spiritual age called the Kali-yuga. The Buddha said we were in a such a dark age that a lot fewer Buddhas would appear.

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

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.

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.

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.
