This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Lend me your ear and
I'll tell you about the things I fear
Open your heart and
I'll tell you why I'm torn apart maybe
Lend me your car
And we'll go chase down a falling star
Give me your hand
Cause it takes that fire to understand
When was the last time you felt high
Oh you were the best I've ever felt
Cause I don't need you to fix me
I just want you to listen
It's killing me too
It's so wrong not to be with you
It's getting harder to stay awake
It's killing me too
It stops my heart just to be with you
So listen 'cause you are
The only one who cares to hear
Lend me your time and
We'll go somewhere
And kill some wine
Show me your soul and I'll shine my light
Where it seems so cold now
Give me your lips and I'll tell you about
All the things I miss the most
Open your mind and
I'll crawl right up and sleep inside of it
When was the last time you felt high
Oh you were the best I've ever felt
Cause I don't need you to fix me
I just want you to listen
It's killing me too
It's so wrong not to be with you
It's getting harder to stay awake
It's killing me too
It stops my heart just to be with you
So listen 'cause you are
The only one who cares to hear
When was the last time you felt high
Oh you were the best I've ever felt
Cause I don't need you to fix me
I just want you to listen
It's killing me too
It's so wrong not to be with you
It's getting harder to stay awake
It's killing me too
It stops my heart just to be with you
So listen 'cause you are
The only one who cares to hear
To hear me
I'll tell you about the things I fear
Open your heart and
I'll tell you why I'm torn apart maybe
Lend me your car
And we'll go chase down a falling star
Give me your hand
Cause it takes that fire to understand
When was the last time you felt high
Oh you were the best I've ever felt
Cause I don't need you to fix me
I just want you to listen
It's killing me too
It's so wrong not to be with you
It's getting harder to stay awake
It's killing me too
It stops my heart just to be with you
So listen 'cause you are
The only one who cares to hear
Lend me your time and
We'll go somewhere
And kill some wine
Show me your soul and I'll shine my light
Where it seems so cold now
Give me your lips and I'll tell you about
All the things I miss the most
Open your mind and
I'll crawl right up and sleep inside of it
When was the last time you felt high
Oh you were the best I've ever felt
Cause I don't need you to fix me
I just want you to listen
It's killing me too
It's so wrong not to be with you
It's getting harder to stay awake
It's killing me too
It stops my heart just to be with you
So listen 'cause you are
The only one who cares to hear
When was the last time you felt high
Oh you were the best I've ever felt
Cause I don't need you to fix me
I just want you to listen
It's killing me too
It's so wrong not to be with you
It's getting harder to stay awake
It's killing me too
It stops my heart just to be with you
So listen 'cause you are
The only one who cares to hear
To hear me

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,
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
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.

"Lend me your car and we'll go chase down a falling star" I love that part. How come more people haven't commented on this song?? It makes me think of two people that want to be together, but can't be. Kind of like Romeo and Juliet.
For some reason, this song always reminds me of younger love. This is pehaps one of the best love songs I've ever heard (along with John Denver's "Annie's Song"), and I really appreciate how it expresses the tentative nature of trying to understand someone, and eventually mingling.
Well i dont think i can top LisaCharly's comment lol and i completely agree. It is an amazing song. I love how gentle it is and, yet, so desperate. Like someone needing to be loved by someone who can only protect. It really hurt me the first time i heard this and i sat in silence to try and listen to the lyrics as best i could and burst into tears! It is heart wrenching. You know that some part of you has felt this before.
this is an awesome song, one of sister hazels best. i think its about two people who know they are suposed to be together but for some reason they cant. and it kills both of them. great song!!
I agree with all the other comments here. A couple who can't be together anymore, and it's killing them both. He wants so much to be with her, or just to be close to her, but he can't.
Ugh...this song is heart wrenching...I'm in a relationship with a guy that I have no romantic chemistry with, and there's this other guy from my past that I recently caught up with (not phsically) who has given me some inclination that he wants me to break things off with my bf and move to where he is. I know there is so much passion there, but it's risking so much to leave where I am...I just want him to understand the decisions I'm facing, but that I truly do want to be with him so much it "stops my heart."
