Oh, baby come close to me
Let me love you
Oh, baby come close to me
Let me feel you

Look at each other, look at each other, look at each other
Look at each other, look at each other, look at each other
Look at each other, look at each other, look at each other

Go away, go away, go away, go away

Well now mutually, mentally molested children of a mother
Mutually, mentally molested children of sin
Oh no, the ever so popular beating that took you under
Oh no, the ever so popular beating that broke your skin

Free thinkers are dangerous
Blame hate for fate's seed

Go away, go away, go away, go away

Well you need the ones you love, love the ones that you need
Need the ones you love and love the ones you bleed
Lives rearranged and lives in my range, can you see?
Lives rearranged and lives in my range, can you see?

Free thinkers are dangerous
Blame hate for fate's seed

Die, die, die, die
Gonna let you mother fuckers die, gonna let you mother fuckers die
Gonna let you mother fuckers die, gonna let you mother fuckers die

Look at each other
Look at each other
Look at each other

    PLEASE! i might sound really childish and retarded, but i really have been trying to figure out what this song means. is there a story behind it? I have thought that it might be partly a religious song, about how the Mother (mary) is the mother of us all, and in the religion runs us, (molests us)?. soad just puts so many things in a song.. it is very hard to say that the song is about one topic. I'm sure someone could figure aout some other views of this song. "free thinker are dangerous"? is that sopposed to be a govornment message, towards the people. same with "gonna let you motherfuckers die"... please, help me on this one. ...

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.

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,

Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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/

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
