This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
There might be something outside your window
But you'll just never know
There could be something right past the turnpike gates
But you'll just never know
If my velocity starts to make you sweat
Then just don't let go
And if the heaven ain't got a vacancy
Then we just, then we just, then we just, then we just
Get up and go
Ladies and gentleman, truth
Is now acceptable fame
Is now injectable process the progress
This core is critical faith
Is unavailable lives
Become incredible now
Please understand that
I can't slow down
I won't be waiting for you
I can't stop now because I'm dancing
This planet's ours to defend
Ain't got no time to pretend
Don't fuck around, this is our last chance
If my velocity starts to make you sweat
Then just don't let go
'Cause the emergency room got no vacancy
And we just, and we just, and we just, and we just
Get up and go
(Who) they want you to be
(Who) they wanted to see
(Go) kill the party with me and never go home
Who they want you to be
Who they wanted to see
Just leave the party with me and never go home
You're unbelievable
Ah, so unbelievable
Ah, you ruin everything
Oh, you better go home
I'm unbelievable
Yeah, I'm undefeatable
Yeah, let's ruin everything, blast it to the back row
They sell presentable
Young, and so ingestible
Sterile and collectible
Safe, and I can't stand it
This is a letter, my word
Is the beretta, the sound of my vendetta
Against the ones that planned it
If my velocity starts to make you sweat
Then just don't let go
'Cause the emergency room got no vacancy
Tell me who do you trust, do you trust
And we just get up and go
Who they want you to be
Who they wanted to see
(Go) kill the party with me and never go home
Who they want you to be
Who they wanted to see
Just leave the party with me and never go home
You keep eternity, give us the radio
Deploy the battery, we're taking back control
Engage the energy, light up the effigy
No chance to take it slow
By now I'm sure you know, know, know, know, know (one, two, three, four)
Get up and go
(Who) they want you to be
(Who) they wanted to see
(Go) kill the party with me and never go home
Who they want you to be
Who they wanted to see
Just leave the party with me and never go home
Are we still having fun?
Are you holding the gun?
Take the money and run
We'll never go home
I've got nothing to lose
You've got nothing to say
And we're leaving today
We'll never go home
I think I better go now
I think I better go now
I think I better go now (go home)
Gonna go now, gonna go now, gonna go now, gonna go now
Go now, gonna go now
Go home
But you'll just never know
There could be something right past the turnpike gates
But you'll just never know
If my velocity starts to make you sweat
Then just don't let go
And if the heaven ain't got a vacancy
Then we just, then we just, then we just, then we just
Get up and go

Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
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.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
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.
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.
I bet most people that claim that this is “too mainstraim” are just terrified by the sudden urge to dance. This is not like any song I've heard on the radio recently. Important lyrics here like “Truth is now acceptable, fame is now injectable” any ideas?
I am not really to sure what he means when he says "Truth is now acceptable"<br /> But the line "fame is now injectable" makes me think of Justin Bieber. Along with the line "They sell presentable young". Not that he is necessarily talking about Justin Bieber...
in the line "Truth is now accebtable" he could be saying that its ok and accebtable to tell the truth
So as it says, that is the obvious meaning. Maybe it isn't that deep but I don't know.
probably a slightly anarchistic tune. Mainstream media and politicians selling us bullshit and I reckon it's pretty much a song about being aware of what's going on and just taking control as to how you think your life should be lived.
You are so full of crap. "Just taking control as to how you think your life should be lived" is fine and dandy if it's honest. If a person is his/her best (strongest; healthiest; kindest; most honest; etc) s/he can be than that's PERFECT. However, if s/he's lying to herself about being in control than let's be HONEST and poo poo that notion of being in control. Dishonestly makes my stomach churn and it's churning big time this morning. Geesh.
Cat got your tongue, Bella? Oh, I forgot; that's 2night ;)
I don't think these lyrics are correct. This is what I think the lyrics are:

mcr saved ma life. .keep r0ckng
I'm glad I accidentally stumbled upon this terrific song in Gran Turismo 5, I've been listening to it non-stop ever since. I love that certain "get up and go!" drive in the music and lyrics that makes you just want to get up off you butt and run a few miles! This was a side to My Chemical Romance that I never knew existed, and a very welcome change! No idea what he's singing about though.
I think this song is simply about being yourself and going with the MCR message.
I believe this song is about finally being free. Not physically free, but free from the doubts holding you back and the rude and harmful comments people make when you are not like them. It is about getting rid of the rules of society and being happy. Gerard is telling us it's okay to be who you are, you are you and there is nothing on this planet or the next that can change that, so why be restrained? Why let someone who has never met you and knows absolutely nothing about you when you could be happy? Happiness is all about being free and being free is all about not letting yourself be slowed or held back by anyone or anything. You are you and if no one else loves you for it (which I may not know you, but I do anyway), at least you should. Love yourself. Be happy. Be free.
