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.
Yeah, it's on again
She flirts with all my friends
What would it take
To get some attention
You know it's killing me
Her lack of sensitivity
I want to know
What's your intentions
How did it come to this
With a clenched jaw and a clenched fist
The girl really knows
How to piss me off
But I remember when
Things seemed so much different
Say hi to her pops
When I come to pick her up
And see all those...
Family portraits on the wall
Who'd of ever guessed at all
Little girl hides all the pain
With my friends she's made a name
She only loves me for my cash
I only love her for that ass
She's a whore but I don't care
She's a love I've learned to share
I've learned to share
I've learned to share
Just want to know why I'm so
Just want to know how I got
Just want to know
Cause I don't know
What I see in you
Family portraits on the wall
Who'd of ever guessed at all
Little girl hides all the pain
With my friends she's made a name
She only loves me for my cash
I only love her for that ass
She's a whore but I don't care
She's a love I've learned to share
I've learned to share
I've learned to share
She flirts with all my friends
What would it take
To get some attention
You know it's killing me
Her lack of sensitivity
I want to know
What's your intentions
How did it come to this
With a clenched jaw and a clenched fist
The girl really knows
How to piss me off
But I remember when
Things seemed so much different
Say hi to her pops
When I come to pick her up
And see all those...
Family portraits on the wall
Who'd of ever guessed at all
Little girl hides all the pain
With my friends she's made a name
She only loves me for my cash
I only love her for that ass
She's a whore but I don't care
She's a love I've learned to share
I've learned to share
I've learned to share
Just want to know why I'm so
Just want to know how I got
Just want to know
Cause I don't know
What I see in you
Family portraits on the wall
Who'd of ever guessed at all
Little girl hides all the pain
With my friends she's made a name
She only loves me for my cash
I only love her for that ass
She's a whore but I don't care
She's a love I've learned to share
I've learned to share
I've learned to share

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.
Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
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.
