I've gotta big big big heart beat yeah
I think you are the sweetest thing
I wear a coat of feelings and they are loud
but I've been having good days,
think we are the right age
to start our own peculiar ways? (do do do do do do)
With good friendly homes (do do do do do do)

You get me freaked freaked freaked on preakness
I've never met a girl that likes to drink with horses
and knows her Chinese ballet
I must admit you smell like fruity nuts and good grains
but could you show my purple gaze (do do do do do do)
a thing or two at night? (do do do do do do)

It'd make me sick sick sick to kiss you
and I think that I would vomit
but I'll do that on Mondays I don't have a work way
I like it when I bump you
and an accident's a truth gate
I'm humbled in your pretty lens (do do do do do do)
I'll hold you don't you go (do do do do do do)

Sometimes your quiet and sometimes I'm quiet (hallelujah)
Sometimes I'm talkative and sometimes your not talkative I know

well I'd like to spread your perfume around the old apartment
could we live together and agree on the same wares
a trapeze is a bird cage even if its empty
it definitely fits the room (do do do do do do)
and we would too (do do do do do do)

Ada gig gig gig hernana! I talk too much without you,
their ears are getting tired of me singing all the night through
Let's just talk together, you and me and me you
And if there's nothing much to say (do do do do do do)
silence is a bore (do do do do do do)

I've gotta big big big heart beat yeah
I think you are the sweetest thing
I wear a coat of feelings and they are loud
but I've been having good days,
think we are the right age
to start our own peculiar ways? (do do do do do do)
With good friendly homes (do do do do do do)

sometimes your quiet and sometimes I'm quiet (hallelujah)
sometimes I'm talkative and sometimes your not talkative I know
sometimes you hear me when others they can't hear me (hallelujah)
sometimes I'm naked and thank god sometimes your naked well hello

[Can I tell you that you are the purple in me
can I call you just to hear you would you care?
When I saw you put your purple finger on me
there's a feeling in your bottle
found your bottle found your heart
gives a feeling from your bottled little part ] x2

(instrumental)

Gotta crush high thought I crushed all I could
crushed all I can then I touched your hand
crush high don't want it to stop
cause stories of your brother make my crush high bop
and you couldn't really know cause its in my toes
and sometimes I wonder where'd that crush high go
crush high then I go and take some pills
cause I can't do all of my dose and still feel ill
you get that whooooooo! (x7) you get that

you get that crush high thought I crushed all I could
crushed all I can then I touched your hand
crush high don't want it to stop
cause stories of your brother make my crush high bop
and you couldn't really know cause its in my toes
and sometimes I wonder where'd that crush high go
crush high then I go and take some pills
cause I can't do all of my dose and still feel ill
you get that whooooooo! (x7) you get that

you get that crush high thought I crushed all I could
crushed all I can then I touched your hand
crush high don't want it to stop
cause stories of your brother make my crush high bop
and you couldn't really know cause its in my toes
and sometimes I wonder where'd that crush high go
crush high then I go and take some pills
cause I can't do all of my dose and still feel ill
you get that whooooooo! (x15) you get that

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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.

Mountain Song
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."

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

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.
