Not Living

Coal Chamber

I realize I'm dead I'm fucked in the head
I'm not living without you
My life is a game my life is a shame
I'm not living without you

My heart is a joke and my life has been choked
And I'm not living without you
My life is alone my life is alone
I'm not living without you

You're bleeding me you're bleeding me you're bleeding me
You're bleeding
I realize I;m dead I'm fucked in the head
I'm not living without you

My life is a game my life is a shame
I'm not living without you
This heart has been choked and my life is a joke
And I'm not living without you

You're bleeding me you're bleeding me you're bleeding me
You're bleeding...
You!
You've taken all from me

What I have to see
What I cannot be inside you
My love my God my love bleeding me
What's this? what's this?

I can't live
I realize I'm dead I'm fucked in the head
I'm not living without you
My life is a game my life is a shame

I'm not living without you
This heart is a joke and my life has been choked
And I'm not living without you
And my life is a game my life is a shame

I'm not living without you
You're bleeding me you're bleeding me you're bleeding me you're bleeding... you!

    Obviously someone important in his life is always putting him down and making him feel like shit.

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Gentle Hour
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,

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

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.
