i read your little book and ha ha ha ha ha ha ha (x2)

you need an reason to believe
an reason to deceive
an reason for the song you're singing
and everything you do makes perfect sense to you
so why is your alarm bell ringing

you say you know how it feels inside of me
lost and alone with no love or luxury
come on inside and hear the sound thats constantly judging me
don't you think you should move on

oh no you think you're so fucking rude

you need an way to get along
an way to carry on
an symptom for the pain you're making
and surely you should know that everywhere you go
there's acid in the world you're baking

you say you know how it feels inside of me
lost and alone with no love or luxury
come on inside and hear the sound thats constantly judging me
don't you think you should move on

you run until you best believe it
you've sold it now your soul receives it
you wave about but now agree with it
the damage and betrayal to hell with the

reason to believe
an reason to deceive
an reason for the song you're singing
and everything you do makes perfect sense to you
so why is your alarm bell ringing

you say you know how it feels inside of me
lost and alone with no love or luxury
come on inside and hear the sound thats constantly judging me
don't you think you should move on (x3)

    It seems like this is another song directed to Head. It comes right after "ever be" on the album and seems to be talking directly to Head. I believe Head wrote some book that said a lot of shit about the band members, so this was Korn's way of saying "don't you think you should move on" with the money he has made from being in the band, and shuttup and be happy.

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.

Gentle Hour
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,

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.

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.
