Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
I got the key, key to Gramercy Park...
Every night,
Looking for the fight,
Thoughts on the left,
The action's on the right,
As you know, the id wasn't meant to be starved,
Face, white,
Revenge of the Hittites
When you were inside,
And you thought to take a walk in the park,
Think someone's about to be carved...
I'm From the other side of the Under scene
To the boulevard of broken dreams ...
To find the key to Gramercy Park...
I got the key, key to Gramercy Park,
Where it's safe to be afraid of the dark
Maybe there we can fuck by the heavenly stars
But I might, might miss breaking in through the bars
From the other side of the under scene,
To the boulevard of broken dreams...
To find the key to Gramercy Park...
In the other time of mother speed,
Through evil eyes and make believe...
To where we bear the supremacy mark
I got the key, key to Gramercy Park
Where it's safe to be afraid of the dark
Maybe there we can fuck by the heavenly stars
But I might, might miss breaking in through the bars
And never look at the other place
Stay with what's pristine and touches you
Beware the perilous Central way
Something that could mean so much to you
Try, save a seat in the golden cage
The medium mass has yet to still say
"To simply pass,
or rise from the grave..."
Now I've got the key to Gramercy Park,
But I might, might miss breaking in through the bars...
Now I've got the key to Gramercy Park,
On the way, I'm alone, but not afraid of the dark...
I've got the key to Gramercy Park...
Face, white
Revenge of the Hittites

its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
The Spy
Doors, The

Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?
Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
The Night We Met
Lord Huron
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"
haha arguing.. cute. i like this song when im not paying attention to the lyrics... but when i actually listen to the lyrics, it loses a lot of appeal. and the white plastic chains in the video are so... werid.
