Cellophane flowers never happened for me
I've been sleeping the day off, watching the night fall, covering nowhere
Filling my timeshare
There's a woman in the mirror in a fiery state
As she motions to me, I start turning a way
And she's lifting her dress up,
Trying to keep up

Oh, you'd be surprised!
How we race
While our lives
Erased

Another alone on an everyday night
Thinking the morning, looking for alright, warming blood flow with poison
I don't know why

Maybe the rain will stop following me
Dripping the colors, running the daylight, over the cloudburst
Hoping I don't burst

Right before my eyes!
Erased our lives
Erased

We know we're lost, we're lost, we're nowhere now
We know we're lost, we're lost, we're nowhere now
Now we know we're lost lost in nowhere now

Maybe the rain'll stop following me
With millions of colors reflected in daylight
Right on the kick drum
Turning the sound up, oh!
(Our lives) Another alone on an everyday night
I think in the morning I think I'll be alright (Erased)
Watching the blood flow
No wonder I don't know why (Our lives)
There's a woman in the mirror in a fiery state
She motions to me, I start pulling away (Erased)
She's lifting her dress up
All the way up, oh!

Don't look surprised
Erased
Our lives
Erased
Our lives
Erased

    yeah those artists are really deep and inspired, i just wish they could use their power of presenting visions to people, for some more optimistic visions to try and show solutions to that which they wine about, though that can be hard and leave people depressed say if the government doesn't pay attention and leaves the seeming reality lowly

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,

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.
