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.
Let me breathe
Let me breathe
I can't even think right now
Something's got me feeling guilty
Hurt you slowly but so surely
I don't know why, love you so much
I can't feel because I'm lost
Not too much mad as no more
Is it you, is it me, is it us or is it trust?
Or is it trust?
Pushing into what I want
Because I am so goddamn selfish
Left you hanging, stopped relating
I don't know why, love you so much
I can't feel because I'm lost
Not too much mad as no more
Is it you, is it me, is it us or is it trust?
I'm so alone, empty and lost, it's easier to let you go
Time will erode the shame and the fault, it's easier to let you go
(Is it you, is it me)
It's easier to let you go
(Let me breathe)
Let me breathe
I can't feel because I'm lost
Not too much mad as no more
Is it you, is it me, is it us or is it trust?
Or is it trust?
Repeat
I'm so alone, empty and lost, it's easier to let you go
Time will erode the shame and the fault, it's easier to let you go
Repeat
Is it you, is it me
Repeat
It's easier to let you go
Breathe
Repeat
Let me breathe
Breathe
Repeat
Let me breathe
I can't even think right now
Something's got me feeling guilty
Hurt you slowly but so surely
I don't know why, love you so much
I can't feel because I'm lost
Not too much mad as no more
Is it you, is it me, is it us or is it trust?
Or is it trust?
Pushing into what I want
Because I am so goddamn selfish
Left you hanging, stopped relating
I don't know why, love you so much
I can't feel because I'm lost
Not too much mad as no more
Is it you, is it me, is it us or is it trust?
I'm so alone, empty and lost, it's easier to let you go
Time will erode the shame and the fault, it's easier to let you go
(Is it you, is it me)
It's easier to let you go
(Let me breathe)
Let me breathe
I can't feel because I'm lost
Not too much mad as no more
Is it you, is it me, is it us or is it trust?

I'm so alone, empty and lost, it's easier to let you go
Time will erode the shame and the fault, it's easier to let you go
Repeat
Is it you, is it me
Repeat
It's easier to let you go
Breathe
Repeat
Let me breathe
Breathe
Repeat

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,
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/
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

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.

i dont know but try posting this in a thread, you might get reply from there. this is just where you comment on songs. but create a thread about your question and you should get replies faster than here.
Hmm this is probably one of my favorite songs from Adema. It's great!! I think it's about his girlfriend or friend or whatever and them losing their trust in him. And how he is blaming himself, but without this person he is "lost" and "alone."
REMINDS ME OF MY EX ERIC! AWWW
Hella good song.
This is a kick ass song! I decate this song to ex bf Ryan because it reminds me of him!
i love this song.... i recently did something stupid to my girlfriend.... i feel horrible cuz of it and she has every reason to not trust me now.... i wanna hear this song now.....
Ok everyone don't get me wrong. I love Adema. I've seen them in concert but why is it there are more results found on Adema then Korn? That's a little bass akwards if you ask me. Ok now the song. It is deffinetly one of my favorite Adema songs. I think it is about a decietful loved one/friend.
