Man Who Make You Sick

Man Man

another day of rattling souls
hanging over your head
so you bought a crucifix
smeared across your breast
a dozen red rabbits-feet
hanging around your neck
so you bought a crucifix
smeared across your breast

i saw the devil in your eyes last night, and it scared me half to death
it's hard to think about haunting you, knowing you're possessed

man who makes you sick,
floats along on angels' wings
man who makes you sick,
floats along on angels' wings
man who makes you sick,
floats along on angels' wings
man who makes you sick,
floats along on angels' wings

if i bought you an elephant, would you ride it around?
if i bought you a cross to hang on, girl, would you burn it down?
if i told you i loved you, would you still kick me out?
if i told you you're beautiful, can i finish in your mouth?

another day of rattling souls
hanging over your head
so you bought a crucifix
smeared across your breast
a dozen red rabbits-feet hanging
hanging around your neck
so you bought a crucifix
smeared across your breast

    isn't there a part that goes "i saw the devil in your eyes last night, and it scared me half to death" and then something else before the angel's wings part

    and the next verse sounds to me like: "if i bought(find?) you an elephant, would you ride it around? if i bought/find you a cross to hang on, girl, would you burn it down? if i told you i loved you, would you still kick me out?" i dont know the last part though, perhaps something about a fish in your mouth

    also, i always thought "another great -------" was "a thousand red rabbit's feet hanging around your neck"

    but that's just what i hear when i listen to it haha

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

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.

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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
