Oh my God
This town, it feels like a headache
And all the words inside my mouth won't come through.
I've got this pain in my head that I can't shake
When I remind myself I can't get to you.

And it rained all day
And I figured it out I'm not the person that I used to be
Washed away
Please someone make me okay
Because I'm feeling like I might...

Take today and make my way
Through the town, the streets, the pouring rain
'Cause some days,
It seems like the clouds won't stay away.

I watched you change with the seasons
I wrote you letters but I forgot to mention that
I'm a wreck, I'm a mess, you're a stranger.
Watch your face fade away
Now I'm stuck here

Take today and make my way
Through the town, the streets, the pouring rain
'Cause some days,
It seems like the clouds won't stay away.

She said,
"Turn your back cause you'll never understand."
I can't get through
I can't get through to you
But the silence and the shaking of your hands
Says differently to me

You watched me wait on the steps of your house
I stood outside, you refused to come out
And honestly, this is making me sick.

All this time
I tried to hide
The truth inside
But this is making me sick.
This is making me sick.

Take today and make my way
Through the town, the streets, the pouring rain
'Cause some days,
It seems like the clouds won't stay away.

She said,
"Turn your back cause you'll never understand."
I can't get through
I can't get through to you
But the silence and the shaking of your hands
Says differently to me

Take today and make my way
Through the town, the streets, the pouring rain
'Cause some days,
It seems like the clouds won't stay away.

Stay away

Some days, it seems like the clouds won't stay away.

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

Bron-Y-Aur Stomp
Led Zeppelin
This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
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.

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.
