once again the pain has come blood fills my eyes another voice lies dying in the wind this remains constant repetition breeds normalcy just the dying whisper of an infected fool one more face has come and walked away with a piece of me leaving me along bleeding and speechless preserving silence please understand you've done this to yourself a dying flower and a piece of blame that I used to know I remember you staring back at me through broken glass so tear apart your memories and suck your fingers dry and look for another way to fill an empty life one more face has come and killed me slowly with its tongue leaving scabs to hide the words that fall on the ears of the deaf preserving silence it feels like I'm dying and this time its your fault tied to the gun tied to the knife watching you chase your own demise kill another minute wasting what you needed you've left yourself to nothing and tried to take me with you believing all your falsehoods you're drowning here alone I know that in the end you will burn for this you are falling from my hands a silhouette of disgust a chalk outline of a soul a sickened tortured figure rests its outstretched arms the damned leading the damned to a place for the forgotten a chorus of the lost in a room for the weak crying out turning blue suffocating in your sea of self hate and lust with apathy life washes past bloodied eyes and leaves a numb hardened wreck lying still in its place wasting what you took from me leaving me to mourn exhausting the space I've given you forgetting you in the end

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
