You know there's still a sense I have you've stolen these days all your love
Is here
If love is given in to hope you're fooling yourself it's as if you knew all
Along
It's enough now it's your loss now it's just that I'm low it's enough now
It's your loss now it's just I don't know
You know you steal the sunlight how you steal your own scene still oh no no
You're reasonable if hope is given in to how we need to be now it's as if
You knew you knew all along

    I think she's singing about someone who loves her, but for one reason or another, won't take measures to show her. Maybe there are obstacles in this someone's way; either way, she's fed up of waiting. She's trying to give this person up, but it's hard to give up someone that she secretly loves as well. Does anyone agree with me?

    Song Meaning
    She's figured out he doesn't really love her, but only pretends to("hope you're fooling yourself"). She now regrets the time wasted for nothing("you've stolen all these days"), realizes she was taken advantage of for her flaws("it's just that I'm low"), but struggles to have enough confidence in herself to leave("it's just I don't know"). Part of her still wants it to work("if hope is given into, how we need to be now"), but he continues to intentionally manipulate her hope and low confidence("you steal your own scene still"), which she sees, and she finally calls it off("it's enough now").

Another Love
Tom Odell
I think the meaning is pretty clear. This person got really burned in a previous relationship, and because of this is unable to love and show care in his present one, even though he so badly wants to. It's lovely song, and very sad. You can really feel how defeated and frustrated he is with himself.

Indigo
Of Mice & Men
This track is about is about questioning why the sky would choose to be blue if it had the choice to be anything else, “blue also meaning sad,” states frontman Aaron Pauley. “It's about comforting a loved one in a time of loss by telling them you feel blue, too.”

Shudder to Think
This song is timeless, and nearly 20 years after its creation, still possesses the mystique it did the first time i heard it ~1994. To me, at first blush, all those years ago, it had some kind of homo-erotic allure. The line "so that the others may do" tells of something which must be done for others to follow suit. It felt like like some kind of roxy-glam-pop invitation to sexual liberation. Upon further introspection I think the song may not have an intrinsic meaning, but simply represents a sort of "holding open the door" for people who otherwise might be affronted by this song/band's unusual style. I know, as a sort of armchair rock-historian, that there have been few bands so daring and so true to the sound that wanted to emerge from within, whether the creator wanted it or not. This band handled it with elegance and grace seldom, if ever, seen.

Mad Hatter
Avenged Sevenfold
Matt Shadows their lead singer says the song was written as per request from the developers of Call of Duty: Black Ops 4. Watching the initial trailers for the game & looking at production sketches reminded him of the 'S-Town' podcast & its main protagonist, John B. McLemore. Matt also comments specifically on the lyrics: "I decided that the lyrics would shadow McLemore's life." In 2012, antiquarian horologist John B. McLemore sent an email to the staff of the show 'This American Life' asking them to investigate an alleged murder in his hometown of Woodstock, Alabama, a place McLemore claimed to despise. After a year of exchanging emails & several months of conversation with McLemore, producer Brian Reed traveled to Woodstock to investigate. Reed investigated the crime & eventually found that no such murder took place, though he struck up a friendship with the depressed but colorful character of McLemore. He recorded conversations with McLemore & other people in Woodstock. McLemore killed himself by drinking potassium cyanide on June 22, 2015 while the podcast was still in production. In the narrative of the podcast, this occurs at the end of the second episode; subsequent episodes deal with the fallout from McLemore's death while exploring more of McLemore's life & character.
