It's amazing
How far apart we are upon beind so close
I can feel your breath upon my cheeks
It's only a matter of seconds if two magnets floated in the air
Would they meet together and attach?
Or merely transform back onto the fridge, which where they once lived?
It's amazing now, for some reason how I am lacking
A motor for my chamber heart interior
At each pump circulates through my circulatory system
Finally reaching the cheeks, on my face, where you breathe, affecting my brain
And carving a symbol of luck, in a place up north

I type this now
With a meaning for when
When will the times be, when will the times be better again?
I've done my distemper for reasons I know not
I could blame my vivid step for circles I have gone

You left me down, down upon my hands, Those which once held yours
Here come the power chords
I'll take it and leave and let out a noise
Loud enough so you can barely hear and know what you did
Are you interested in the grey quest for anything that is worth it?
Do you need to jog or could you find it in short answer form?
Maybe you could, if you put down that damn crossword puzzle
Forming words, out of nothing, and mixing them with others, not everything false
Finding something across or down, and on an even form
Maybe I'm just angry at the breath you merge with mine

You know it involves the morning after, where two are fucked in the morning
Or the night of the prom
I'm anxious to know that I'm alive
Not enough shit, it involves everything we ever did
When we picked out the screaming or musical recognition, or the stereotypical

In a shopping center, he's waking up for the first time
With you becoming me, and me becoming you
To feel like we were ours, when your breath merged with mine

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.

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"

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/

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.
