This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
damn, I know I shouldn't have told her
Alright, listen
I thought about sittin' back
Straight denying itBut I knew that you deserve more
So I faced the music
You left in a fit
I'm wonderin' what I told the truth for
Now you're flauntin' him at our favorite joint
Knowing that it would get back to me
Girl enough already
You already made your point
Why can't you accept I'm sorry
Now you're takin' every chance
To throw in my face
Just to show me now that I lost it
I know hurt you bad
But what you're doing nows no different
Cause you don't really love him
Now I've got nothin' left
You never learned to forgive and forget
You're rippin' my heart out of my chest
Whoever said truth is always best
Didn't know nothin, didn't know nothin nothin
Shoulda kept my mouth shut
Coulda kept my mouth shut
Shoulda kept my mouth shut
Now you don't wanna leave
But maybe you should
Even though I know you love me
You just got to get even
Wish I'd never seen this side of you because it's ugly
I told you I messed up
Like a man I 'fessed up
Coulda been civil this is me here
Instead you punished me
And when you're satisfied
By that time I might not be here
Okay you've won
You've torn me down
But don't think that you're above me
Cause girl you're playin' yourself now
Cause I know that you still love me
But you're killin' it, you're killin' it
Now I've got nothin' left
You never learned to forgive and forget
You're rippin' my heart out of my chest
Whoever said truth is always best
Didn't know nothin, didn't know nothin nothin
Remember all the plans that we made
Like taking a trip in the summer time to Spain
Forget all about the evil things we say
And remember that time we made love, in the park, in the rain
I can't look deep into the future
And predict how it's all gonna be
But I want this to work
And I know you're still hurt
But you're killin' me, you're killin' me
Now I've got nothin' left
You never learned to forgive and forget
You're rippin' my heart out of my chest
Whoever said truth is always best
Didn't know nothin, didn't know nothin nothin
Now I've got nothin' left
You never learned to forgive and forget
You're rippin' my heart out of my chest
Whoever said truth is always best
Didn't know nothin, didn't know nothin nothin
Cause now I know what I shoulda done
Shoulda kept my mouth shut
Cause then we wouldn't be here
Shoulda kept my mouth shut
But I didn't...

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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,
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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.
This song means a lot to me because I'm madly in love with Drew Seeley, and I can relate to some of the lyrics.
