I'm lost at sea,
the radio is jammed, I bet they wont find me
I swear it's for the best,
and then your frequency is pulling me in closer
'til I'm home...

and I've been up for days,
I finally lost my mind,
and then I lost my way,
I'm blistered but I'm better
and I'm home...

I will grow,
there's things that aren't worth giving up, I know,
but I wont let this get me,
I will fight
you live the life you're given with the storms outside,
and some days all I do is watch the sky

this room's too small,
its only getting smaller,
I'm against the wall,
and slowly getting taller,
here in wonderland, this guilt feels so familiar
and I'm home...

I will crawl,
there's things that aren't worth giving up, I know,
but I wont let this get me,
I will fight
you live the life you're given with the storms outside,
and some days all I do is watch the sky,

Some days, all I do is watch the sky...

I think I,
I could use a little break
Today was a good day
I think I,
I could use a little break,
but today was a good day

It's a deep sea, in which I'm floating,
and still I sink to think that I must crawl.....

there's things that aren't worth giving up, I know,
when you cant bare to carry me,
I'll fight,
you live the life you're given with the storms outside
and some days all I do is watch the sky

today was a good day
today was a good day

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.
