Don't tell me now with a smile on your face
That you're lost down and out
When there was nothing left in me

You can't stop fucking with my head
Stop fucking with my head
My silence you break
The smile that you fake (you fake)

There's not one thing that you can say to make it right
Unless you say I'm leaving
And if you're not then please tell me why
Please tell me why you can't
Save face
Say it to my face

Can I take all the filth in your head
All the words that you said (that you said)
And throw it away (throw it out)

You can't stop fucking with my head
Stop fucking with my head
My silence you break
The smile that you take away

There's not one thing that you can say to make it right
Unless you say I'm leaving
And if you're not then please tell me why
Please tell me why

There's not one thing that you can say to make it right
Unless you say I'm leaving
And if you're not then please tell me why
Please tell me why you cant

That shit you're talkin' don't mean nothing to me anymore
Limp dick, you fuck stick let's settle the score
Run and hide you know I'll find you anywhere
Motherfucker, two faced pirck with hell to pay
What's real is real, it's time to step up to the plate again
Swing batter-batter, swing batter-batter, swing,
What's real is real, it's time to step up to the plate again
Swing batter-batter, fucked me for the last time!

Just take a swing
C'mon you should've taken that swing
Just take your swing

There's not one thing that you can say to make it right
Unless you say I'm leaving
And if you're not then please tell me why
Please tell me why

There's not one thing that you can say to make it right
Unless you say I'm leaving
And if you're not then please tell me why
Please tell me why you cant

Swing
Just take your sing
Fuck you!

Just take your swing
You can't stop fuckin' with my head
Stop fucking with my head

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.

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,

Amazing

This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
