The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
Five iron frenzy
They were good,
They were good,
They were really really really good
Five iron frenzy
And when you see them
We really really think you should
Thank them for being so cool and so awesome
And thank them for being so neat'o
Look at their teeth and then tell them to floss them
I think Reese is wearing a speedo
They were good,
They were good,
They were really really really good
Five iron frenzy
And when you see them
We really really think you should
Thank them for being so cool and so awesome
And thank them for being so neat'o
Look at their teeth and then tell them to floss them
I think Reese is wearing a speedo

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.
Fivescore was one of their more blatant Christain albums. The others I had to dig deep to see the allegory in most cases, but Fivescore was awesome.
Listening to the style of the lyrics, it makes me think I can write songs too (not saying it's because they are simple, just an interesting approach)
But yeah. Relient K still loves God... Although who said they didn't I'd like to meet.
But Clarityofsuchgrace nailed it on the lyrics meaning.
Well, yeah. Getting Into You's allegory was fairly hard to figure out.<br /> <br /> (sarcasm done) But no. People who say RK isn't christian anymore don't look (or listen?) beyond the surface. Or maybe they don't want to hear the message the guys are getting across.<br /> RK just gets better and better.
