Round round round we go
So clued up but obliviously
Systematically and vigorously
Society behaves so hideously
Quick to move prove nothing that helps us
We run earth so ridiculously
Guilty, betrayed, so innocently
Earth natives act immigrantly
Grew up parallel to poverty
Little choice did crime for a while
I was born in the court of pocket-less
I want to stand judge to put money on trial
Robbery sure did effect me
Kept me in the sight of the old bill
So I state music's the escape
To the front gate, to the house on the hill
This better be my lucky star
I'm too far gone, I've gone too far
This better my lucky star
I'm too far gone, I've gone too far

Look up look out
Jump up jump up
Look up look out
Jump up jump up

I've come a little way in a little long time
From doing street robberies and petty crime
I've come far in a little long way
I would just like to say I feel fine
'Cause I was down for a little long gate
Street rat appearance face all bait
I was left in a little long state
I would just like to say I feel great
So don't make me laugh
What do you know about having no money for a trim?
Take school photo's with a Jim
What do you know about boiling a kettle for a bath?
Come on now, be real, what do you know about radio 1, 2, 3?
Bailiffs banging so the neighbors see
What do you know about hustling for a school meal?

This better be my lucky star
I'm too far gone, I've gone too far
This better my lucky star
I'm too far gone, I've gone too far

Look up look out
Jump up jump up
Look up look out
Jump up jump up

This better be my lucky star
This better be

Round round round we go
Round round round we go

Round round round we go

This better be my lucky star
I'm too far gone, I've gone too far
This better my lucky star
I'm too far gone, I've gone too far

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
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.

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Blue
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 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.
