Another Little Hole

Aqualung

No need to tell her,
She knows that there's
Another little hole
In her heart.

Each day, each dollar,
She knows it tears
Another little hole
In her heart.

'cause she feels it happen,
No doubt that there's
Another little hole
In her heart.
Another little hole
In her heart.

Day is breaking,
And time is taking
The love we're making
Away.

This life can only
Leave us lonely,
There's no tomorrow,
Just another little hole
In her heart.
Yeah.

No need to tell me,
I know that there's
Another little tear
In my eye.

I'm quite aware,
I see that there's
Another little tear
In my eye.

Do you ask yourself why?
Should we ask ourselves why?
Is there any point in wondering why?
Any point in wondering why?

Day is breaking,
And time is taking
The love we're making
Away.

This life can only
Leave us lonely,
There's no tomorrow
Just another little tear
In my eye.
Another little tear
In my eye.
Another little tear
In my eye.
Yeah.

I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't, I don't know.

I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't, I don't know.

I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't, I don't know.

The day is breaking,
And time is taking
The love we're making
Away.

The gods have spoken,
The spell is broken,
And love will tear us,
Love will tear us
Apart.

This life can only
Leave us lonely,
There's no tomorrow,
Just another little hole
In my heart.
Another little hole
In my heart.
Another little hole
In my heart.

I don't know. I don't know.
I don't know. I don't, I don't know.

    im experiencing this. she knows things are falling apart and he can see that she knows. he doesnt exactly know what to say or do. their love is dying but they still love eachother. her heart is breaking: she is breaking. he sees her upset and tears follow. i hope noone ever experiences this although love often leads to this :(

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.

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.

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/

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
