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”
You got everybody talkin'
You got everybody goin'
You got everybody actin' crazy
I'm not gonna say you don't
You got everybody listenin'
You got everybody puttin' on a show
You got everybody actin' crazy
I'm not gonna say you don't, you got it all wrong
You're so scene listenin'
You can feel that you won't sing anythin'
You know you need to take it, to take this seriously
'Cause seriously this high life scenery, it makes me crazy
Hey, what do you say' I need some help, help me out
Boys, I'm not feelin' so good
Girls, I got the feel that you're feelin' somethin'
That you say is more than you
Everybody in here's got it goin' on
I can't compete with that
I'll take off all of my clothes to the thrift store
And take it all, take it all back
You're so scene listenin'
You can feel that you won't sing anythin'
You know you need to take it, to take this seriously
'Cause seriously this high life scenery, it's makin' me
Hey, look what do you say'
Take a look, take a look
You lookin' at me
Singin', thinkin', I'm about to scream
You're so [Incomprehensible] listenin'
You can feel that you won't sing anythin'
You know you need to take it, to take this seriously
'Cause seriously this high life scenery, it makes me crazy
You're so scene listenin'
You can feel that you won't sing anythin'
You know you need to take it, to take this seriously
'Cause seriously this high life scenery, it makes me crazy
You got everybody goin'
You got everybody actin' crazy
I'm not gonna say you don't
You got everybody listenin'
You got everybody puttin' on a show
You got everybody actin' crazy
I'm not gonna say you don't, you got it all wrong
You're so scene listenin'
You can feel that you won't sing anythin'
You know you need to take it, to take this seriously
'Cause seriously this high life scenery, it makes me crazy
Hey, what do you say' I need some help, help me out

You know you need to take it, to take this seriously
'Cause seriously this high life scenery, it makes me crazy

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.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
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
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.
