Look at the pale face in the sky It seems so ravaged inside
the sense of rage is burning my eyes,burning in my eyes,
burning to deny I'm apart of a fallen machine Which
reflects my life of misery - please guide my way through
fallen galaxies Grand Failure anthem - you'll never see what
you've become we want to get some well-earned respect
before we choke Well,there isn't anything that will kill our
lust,our lust for power...they say: "may you get an hour in
heaven before the devil knows your dead!" Grand failure
anthem - you'll never see what you've become we'll never
get some well-earned respect cause we have..Failed!Failed!
Failed!,Ripped another spine til'the end of time Failed!
Failed!Failed! We're being flushed down the drain

[Chorus x 3]
And the one you hate,will suddenly be yourself,and it's all to
late...

Anything,anything what will Make my conscience clean Is
there anyone out there,who can restore what we have
destroyed? Grand failure anthem - you'll never see what
you've become we'll never ever get some well-earned
respect cause we have...Failed!Failed!Failed! Ripped
another spine til'the end of time Failed!Failed!Failed!
We're being flushed down the drain

[Chorus]

Disruptive and bound to kill itself The face of earth will turn
When you're crawling to the cross And your inner thoughts
reveal themselves Grand failure anthem - you'll never see
what you've become we'll never get some well-earned
respect cause we have...Failed!Failed!Failed!Ripped
another spine til'the end of time Failed!Failed!Failed!
We're being flushed down the drain...

[Chorus]

So you have died,you pale face in the sky The rage is
burning...burning my eyes I'm blind Grand failure anthem
- we'll never see what we've become we'll never get some,
well earned respect.......

    The title says it all - an anthem for those who tried hard and failed miserably.

    You've tried your best and failed, now you feel not pity, but hate for yourself. You see yourself as a loser with a meaningless existance. Heh, sounds like my life.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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.
