Down the street half a block away
In a familiar place,
Regular people agree with each other in smoke signals
Down the street half a block away in a familiar place
Where regular people all agree with each other
Interprets the law as aging
With its eyesight failing, the law is aging
Oh, sitting across, telling stories,
So sit across the table, our eyes unclose like books we've read twice
So cry ghost baby
So on the shelves lined with spines
Dust collects from scattered ash
From an urn unturned
Spilling over someone regular.
And all the such regulars
Cry ghost or boast of a friend of a friend
Who saw a strange sight,
Or heard a strange sound.
Now whisper tall tales of murder
Down the street, half a block away
In a familiar place, with regular people
Agree with each other in smoke signals
Brought together to burn the that brings them together
Interpret the law as aging with its eyesight failing x2
Somebody's little girl
Dreams of the things she's read
Somebody, somebody's little girl
Dreams of the things she's read
And the monsters in her bed who hacked her
into blood-meat.
Somebody's little girl
Dreams of the things she read
While the monsters in her bed who hacked her
into blood-meat.
In a familiar place,
Regular people agree with each other in smoke signals
Down the street half a block away in a familiar place
Where regular people all agree with each other
Interprets the law as aging
With its eyesight failing, the law is aging
Oh, sitting across, telling stories,
So sit across the table, our eyes unclose like books we've read twice
So cry ghost baby
So on the shelves lined with spines
Dust collects from scattered ash
From an urn unturned
Spilling over someone regular.
And all the such regulars
Cry ghost or boast of a friend of a friend
Who saw a strange sight,
Or heard a strange sound.
Now whisper tall tales of murder
Down the street, half a block away
In a familiar place, with regular people
Agree with each other in smoke signals
Brought together to burn the that brings them together
Interpret the law as aging with its eyesight failing x2
Somebody's little girl
Dreams of the things she's read
Somebody, somebody's little girl
Dreams of the things she's read
And the monsters in her bed who hacked her
into blood-meat.
Somebody's little girl
Dreams of the things she read
While the monsters in her bed who hacked her
into blood-meat.

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.
No Surprises
Radiohead
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
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/
Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
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.
TO what gorgonseye said about "sentience". Why the fuck would it be about sentience when the song is called the dissentience. If you look up the word Dissentience you will find it means Meaning #1: disagreeing, especially with a majority Meaning #2: (of Catholics formerly) refusing to attend services of the Church of England. So it the title means to go against religion mainly Catholicism. "cry ghost and boast of the friend of a friend who saw a strange sight, or heard a strange sound, who now whispers tall tales of murder most foul" i see this as refering to the bible story of how someone knew someone who saw jesus once he was risen(cry ghost and boast of the friend of a friend who saw a strange sight) and once the disciples saw jesus risen they could speak many tongues to preach the word of jesus(or heard a strange sound) and then they spread the word of jesus' crucifixion to others in these tongues.(who now whispers tall tales of murder most foul) just my two cents
