I can’t hold this tear anymore
I’m feeling this rip faster than it ever has before
I never seem to care
I thought that you’d always be there
But now I know the story never changes
You just don’t have the time for me right now
But I’m still waiting
This is my last line of defense
And I can hardly breathe
I’ve screamed all that I can scream
To just be proud of me now
I can’t stand this fear I’m living with
I’m so scared to talk to you it really makes me sick
Of all the games we play
You know the phone works both ways
Now I know the story never changes
You just don’t have the time for me right now
But I’m still waiting
You’ve been taking me for granted
Now I see what you’ve done to me
You’re not ready for this and I’m moving on
I’ve held on too long

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,

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.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
