I'm at the end of my report again
For those who won't do apathy
You had the perfect opportunity
But pled the fifth and walked away

Oh, say something
Make us proud
Cast the first stone
Say anything at all

Make a move
Make a move

For every one thing we're ignorant of
A thousand more things beat the maze, yeah
You saw the apple hanging on the tree
But missed the orchard in your gaze

Oh, say something
Make us proud
Cast the first stone
Say any, anything at all

Make a
(Hands on the eyes are the engines of demise) move
Make a move

I'm cautious of who I would call a friend
Who you acquaint is who you are
The darkest hours are when we choose a side
So make your pick and take a fall

Say something
Say anything at all

Make a
(Hands on the eyes are the engines of demise) move
Make a
(Hands on the eyes are the engines of demise) move
Make a
(Hands on the eyes are the engines of demise) move
Make a move

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

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,

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
