This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
I can do what I want
I'm in complete control
That's what I tell myself
I gotta a mind of my own
I'll be alright alone
Don't need anybody else
I gave myself a good talking to
No more bein' a fool for you
But I see ya
And all I remember
How you make me want to surrender
Damn your eyes
For taking my breath away
Makin' me want to stay
Damn your eyes
For gettin' my hopes up high
Making me fall in love again
Damn your eyes
It's always the same
You say that you'll change
Somehow you never do
I believe all your lies
The look in your eyes
You make it all seem true
I guess I see what I want to see
Or is it my heart just deceivin' me?
Because with that look I know so well
I fall completely under your spell
Damn your eyes
For takin' my breath away
For makin' me want to stay
Damn your eyes
For gettin' my hopes up high
For makin' me fall in love again
Damn your eyes
You keep deliberately deceivin' me
Makin' me see what I want to see
Damn your eyes
For takin' my breath away, hey
For makin' me want to stay
Damn your eyes
For getting'my hopes up high
For making me fall in love again
Damn your eyes
Damn your eyes
For taking my breath away
Damn damn your eyes
For getting my hopes up high
For making me fall in love
Fall in love again
Damn damn your eyes
I'm in complete control
That's what I tell myself
I gotta a mind of my own
I'll be alright alone
Don't need anybody else
I gave myself a good talking to
No more bein' a fool for you
But I see ya
And all I remember
How you make me want to surrender
Damn your eyes
For taking my breath away
Makin' me want to stay
Damn your eyes
For gettin' my hopes up high
Making me fall in love again
Damn your eyes
It's always the same
You say that you'll change
Somehow you never do
I believe all your lies
The look in your eyes
You make it all seem true
I guess I see what I want to see
Or is it my heart just deceivin' me?
Because with that look I know so well
I fall completely under your spell
Damn your eyes
For takin' my breath away
For makin' me want to stay
Damn your eyes
For gettin' my hopes up high
For makin' me fall in love again
Damn your eyes
You keep deliberately deceivin' me
Makin' me see what I want to see
Damn your eyes
For takin' my breath away, hey
For makin' me want to stay
Damn your eyes
For getting'my hopes up high
For making me fall in love again
Damn your eyes
Damn your eyes
For taking my breath away
Damn damn your eyes
For getting my hopes up high
For making me fall in love
Fall in love again
Damn damn your eyes

Holiday
Bee Gees
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.
Magical
Ed Sheeran
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.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. 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.
My guess is that you are the only person who has ever heard of Etta James.
How am I the first comment for this when 'artists' like Greenday have thousands... it's sad. I guess it explains why there are so may stupid people out there. Anyway, this song is great, pretty obvious I guess - so no need to explain. Argh. I love you Etta James - even if you are old and fat.
It's a crush song. Just like the word ''crush'', your crush crushes your heart. When you see him your heart melts and your brain gives error. When your eyes meet you pray for him not to understand that you have a crush on him. It's like everyone can understand from your littlest odd behaviour but it's not. She makes a promise to herself not to fall for those eyes again cause it hurts more than anything seeing him with another girl. (Damn it really hurts.)
