This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Came back to doubt yourself but broke in two
They find it puncutual with idle tooth
I'll find something to shake by the roots
I crawl along the ceilings in your room
The cold is spinning thread to answer you
I need something, made of free will
Am I waiting now?
Does my waiting howl
Am I waiting now?
Does my waiting howl?
I bring an avalanche of toltec bones
Contaminated cravings if you choose
To play something that aches for a spill
Leave out the meat for that contact high
Inhale the vapors, let the hangman smile
For that something to shake by roots
Am I waiting now?
Does my waiting howl?
Am I waiting now?
Does my waiting howl?
Bring me the tame
Witness germinates in the child
That word of mouth stutters
Blink at the lonely dice
Bring me the tame
Witness germinates in the child
That word of mouth stutters
Blink at the lonely dice
Don't know (Am I waiting now)
Don't know (Does my waiting howl)
Don't know (Am I waiting now)
Don't know (Does my waiting howl)
Don't know (Am I waiting now)
Don't know (Does my waiting howl)
Don't know (Am I waiting now)
Don't know (Does my waiting howl)
They find it puncutual with idle tooth
I'll find something to shake by the roots
I crawl along the ceilings in your room
The cold is spinning thread to answer you
I need something, made of free will
Am I waiting now?
Does my waiting howl
Am I waiting now?
Does my waiting howl?
I bring an avalanche of toltec bones
Contaminated cravings if you choose
To play something that aches for a spill
Leave out the meat for that contact high
Inhale the vapors, let the hangman smile
For that something to shake by roots
Am I waiting now?
Does my waiting howl?
Am I waiting now?
Does my waiting howl?
Bring me the tame
Witness germinates in the child
That word of mouth stutters
Blink at the lonely dice
Bring me the tame
Witness germinates in the child
That word of mouth stutters
Blink at the lonely dice
Don't know (Am I waiting now)
Don't know (Does my waiting howl)
Don't know (Am I waiting now)
Don't know (Does my waiting howl)
Don't know (Am I waiting now)
Don't know (Does my waiting howl)
Don't know (Am I waiting now)
Don't know (Does my waiting howl)

Little Feat
Little Feat
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”
Gentle Hour

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,
Magical
Ed Sheeran
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.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
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.
i'm loving this song, especially the end with the "bring me the chain".
I'm gonna wait to hear the entire album before I decide what its about though, since the album is supposed to be a concept album
