hey kid, what are you lookin' at. how'd you get so evil so fast.
where's your mom, where's your dad. what did they teach you.
did they touch you. i can't believe this happened to you. i promise
it's not supposed to be this way. but you have no right to repeat
the same. she's not yours this ain't a game. step back watch where
your hands go. they might come back to haunt you. it might do you
good to cut 'em off. better that than to rip her off. you're a thief an
abomination. lucky for you i'm no assassin. i love her you
distorted her view. God help me not to distort you. so let's just say
you're blessed. blessed that i never met you.

hey you son of a preacher man. i got some words for you. repent
for the Kingdom of Heaven is near. you stole somethin' that you can't
give back from the one i love. and now she's forced to pray daily
to fight against your flashbacks. so lets just say you're blessed.
blessed that i never met you.

hey you, you better take your eyes
off of her. your eyes are evil so look away. i'm warnin' you there'll
be hell to pay hell to pay. x2

little girl don't you cry. this boy can't steal what's inside. let my Father
hold you up. heal the thoughts that make you throw up.
i know this life has been hard on you. but the next will never end.
only thing i know to do is to ask my Father to heal you. no soap will
ever scrub away the memories the memories.

hey you, you better take your eyes off of her. your eyes are evil
so look away. I'm warnin' you there'll be hell to pay hell to pay. x2

i'm sorry sorry little girl don't you cry. you're beautiful beautiful beautiful
i love you, i love you.
Father heal us. won't you hear us. show us Your mercy forever.
i love you, i love you

    This song talks about a guy who raed someone close to the person who wrote this. He's angry with the guy that did this, but tells him that God will forgiven him if he repents.

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.

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
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"

Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
