It was never your face on the pictures I never had
There was never your place on mine words I never said
Did he leave you hanging
Did you make a real big scene?

I was never your lover and I'm not your trampoline

Never your name on the postcards I never sent
There was never our lives in a song that I never penned

Did you say I'll show him
Get caught in between

I was never your lover and I'm not your trampoline
Never your lover and I'm not your trampoline

Never place a call to a number you never had
There'll never be a time where you say split it all in half

Did he bring you down
Did he make you scream?

I was never your lover and I'm not your trampoline
Never your lover and I'm not your trampoline
Oh, I'm never your lover and I'm not your
Never your lover and I'm not your
Never your lover and I'm not your trampoline

Your trampoline
Your trampoline
Your trampoline

    Can't believe no one has commented yet. This song's amazing, probably my favorite off Restless Days. I'm in love with all of that CD, maybe because it's new and I've listened to all theitr other songs a million times over. ANYWAY. Good song.

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"

Cajun Girl
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”
