I've loved this song for months now, but only just now realized what it's about. The war. And that makes it all the more heartbreaking. Read my analysis below..

Keane - A Bad Dream

Why do I have to fly? (going to war)

Over every town up and down the line?

I'll die in the clouds above

And you that I defend, I do not love (not really loving all the people you're fighting for)

I wake up, it's a bad dream

No one on my side

I was fighting

But I just feel too tired

To be fighting

Guess I'm not the fighting kind (self explanatory)

Where will I meet my fate? (worried about dying)

Baby I'm a man, I was born to hate

And when will I meet my end?

In a better time you could be my friend (under a different set of circumstances, he and the enemy could've been friends... but this is war, and he has to kill)

I wake up, it's a bad dream

No one on my side

I was fighting

But I just feel too tired

To be fighting

Guess I'm not the fighting kind

Wouldn't mind it

If you were by my side

But you're long gone

Yeah you're long gone now

Where do we go?

I don't even know

My strange old face (the war has aged him and made him look older)

And I'm thinking about those days

And I'm thinking about those days (better times with family and friends before he had to go to war)

I wake up, it's a bad dream

No one on my side

I was fighting

But I just feel too tired

To be fighting

Guess I'm not the fighting kind

Wouldn't mind it

If you were by my side

But you're long gone

Yeah you're long gone now

If I Never See Your Face Again... Maroon 5

Now as the summer fades

I let you slip away

You say I’m not your type

But I can make you sway

It makes you burn to learn

You’re not the only one

I left you, be a field

Put down your blazing gun

Now you’ve gone somewhere else

Far away

I don’t know if I will find you

But you feel my breath

On your neck

Can’t believe I’m right behind you

‘Cause you keep me coming back for more

And I feel a little better than I did before

And if I never see your face again

I don’t mind

‘Cause we've gone much further than I thought we ever might

Sometimes you move so well

It’s hard not to give in

I’m lost, I can’t tell

Where you end and I begin

It makes me burn to learn

You’re with another man

I wonder if he’s half

The lover that I am

Now you’ve gone somewhere else

Far away

I don’t know if I will find you

But you feel my breath

On your neck

Can’t believe I’m right behind you

‘Cause you keep me coming back for more

And I feel a little better than I did before

And if I never see your face again

I don’t mind

‘Cause we've gone much further than I thought we ever might

Baby, baby

Please believe me

Find it in your heart to reach me

Promise not to leave me behind

Take me back, but take it easy

Make me think but don’t deceive me

Talk to me by taking your time

'Cause you keep me coming back for more

And I feel a little better than I did before

And if I never see your face again

I don’t mind

‘Cause we've gone much further than I thought we ever might

"Pan's Labyrinth"

Imaginative, yet grounded. Dark, yet charming. Strange, yet uncomplicated. Interesting characters and interesting stories... I loved it! It was definitely not hard to get lost in.

Nina Gordon - Kiss me 'til it bleeds

Destructive, exciting, and I can't let go

Inciting a riot on my radio

I'm going, I'm gone, even though I know it's wrong

He's a Saturday night and a Sunday morning rolled into one

With a dirty smile that could shame the sun

If I'm going to hang myself on someone else, he's just enough rope

I know it's bad news, but I can't say no

If bitter is sweet, he's just what I need

So kiss me 'til it bleeds

I'm stupid, a sucker-- he's a loaded gun

A lover, a leaver-- just a hit-and-run

When our worlds collide, breathe deep and hold on tight

'Cause he's so rock and roll, I'm a tortured soul with him in my bones

And he leaves me shattered like a rolling stone

If I'm going to hang myself on someone else, he's just enough rope

I know it's bad news, but I can't say no

If bitter is sweet, he's just what I need

So kiss me 'til it bleeds

So what do you do now?

You know he's going to take you down

But you're addicted to the sound and so you hang around

I'm going, I'm gone, even though I know it's wrong

He's a saturday night and a sunday morning rolled into one

With a dirty smile that could shame the sun

If I'm going to hang myself on someone else, he's just enough rope

I know it's bad news, but I can't say no

If bitter is sweet, he's just what I need

So kiss me 'til it bleeds

Just kiss me 'til it bleeds
