Man I'm in trouble, 'cause I can't see clear.
My head is pounding harder and you're not here, are never here.
But I had it once, but not anymore.
Well now I am tired and now I am bored, well I'm so bored.

But I could never leave you, even though I've tried.
No I could never leave you, 'cause you are mine for life.

I've been lost I've been found, I've been fooling around.
I've been hold, I've been told, I've been changing my mind.
I've been up, I've been down, come on in, take your time.
I've been low, I've been high, I'm in love with this lie.
Aooooooo. Do you feel the same?
Aooooooo. It wears me out again.

If this is called living, well don't count me in.
Sure I feel alive, but it doesn't mean a thing, no nothing.

But I could never leave you, even though I've tried.
No I could never leave you, 'cause you are mine for life.

I've been lost I've been found, I've been fooling around.
I've been hold, I've been told, I've been changing my mind.
I've been up, I've been down, come on in, take your time.
I've been low, I've been high, I'm in love with this lie.
Aooooooo. Do you feel the same?
Aooooooo. It wears me out again.
Aooooooo. Do you feel the same?
Aooooooo. It wears me out again.

I've been lost I've been found, I've been fooling around.
I've been up, I've been down, come on in, take your time.
I've been low, I've been high, I'm in love with this lie.
So good, It's so good, so good, HA!

It brings me up just to kick me down.
It'll fix me up, just to kick me down.
Kick it, kick it, kick it up.
Well bring me down oh yeah yeah.

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,

I Can't Go To Sleep
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.

Punchline
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.
