Thumbing through the pages of my fantasies
Pushing all the mercy down, down, down
I wanna see you try to take a swing at me
Come on, gonna put you under ground, ground, ground

Why are you trying to make fun of me?
You think it's funny?
What the fuck you think you're doing to me?
You take your turn lashing out at me
I want you crying when you're bloody at the foot of me

All of my hate cannot be bound
I will not be drowned by your thoughtless scheming
So, you can try to tear me down
Beat me to the ground
I will see you screaming

Thumbing through the pages of my fantasies
I'm above you, smiling at you, drown, drown, drown
I wanna kill and rape you the way you raped me
And I'll pull the trigger
And you're down, down, down

Why are you trying to make fun of me?
You think it's funny?
What the fuck you think you're doing to me?
You take your turn lashing out at me
I want you crying when you're bloody at the foot of me

All of my hate cannot be bound
I will not be drowned by your thoughtless scheming
So, you can try to tear me down
Beat me to the ground
I will see you screaming

All my friends are gone, they died
(Gonna take you down!)
They all screamed and cried
(Gonna take you down!)

I got my body
Got my body back against the wall
(Gonna take you down!)
I got my body
Got my body back against the wall
(Gonna take you down!)
I got my body
Got my body back against the wall
(Gonna take you down!)
I got my body
Got my body back against the wall
(Gonna take you down!)
I got my body
Got my body back against the wall
(Gonna take you down!)
I got my body
Got my body back against the wall
(Gonna take you down!)
I got my body
Got my body back against the wall
(Gonna take you down!)
I got my body
Got my body back against the wall
(Gonna take you down!)
I got my body
Got my body back against the wall
(Gonna take you down!)

All of my hate cannot be bound
I will not be drowned by your thoughtless scheming
So, you can try to tear me down
Beat me to the ground
I will see you screaming

All of my hate cannot be bound
I will not be drowned by your thoughtless scheming
So, you can try to tear me down
Beat me to the ground
I will see you screaming

    You've clearly never had anything happen to you in your life if you think bullying or EVEN rape is the victim's fault. You've clearly never had to go outside your middle-class suburban male bubble and live in a third world country, never had to deal with rape or shunned as a minority or been left to die in the middle of a street while people walk past because if they stop and help they're next to disappear...see how it affects you. Or maybe you're projecting all your issues here, and instead of manning up to your problems you're taking the pussy way out and blaming other victims instead of overcoming your own issues...which makes you worse than a pussy: a hypocrite. Get an education you illiterate moron, get some empathy you sociopath, learn something about life while you're at it you monumental, thoughtless empty husk of an individual.

Techno Ted
Audioslave
Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.

Fortnight
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.

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
