This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Hey!
I am the favorite
In a fight that I can't win
So every morning
I take another on my chin
But I never know, I never know, I never know the round I'm in, yeah
So I'm not gonna love when I know what I've given up
Not gonna love when I know what I've given up
Windows open
Daylight broken
And I'm not gonna love when I know what I've given up
Could be a warning
Could be the evidence of grace
Could be a cold night
Could be a right hook in the face
And I don't deserve, I don't deserve, I don't deserve to call this place my home
And I'm getting tired, I'm getting tired of lying down instead of standing on my own
But I'm not gonna love when I know what I've given up
Not gonna love when I know what I've given up
Long night, cold room
Hold tight, blue moon
And I'm not gonna love when I know what I've given
Hey!
There's something on my mind
Something I've been dying to say
Hey!
When you've lost so many times
The old familiar lines start to fade
But I'm not gonna love when I know what I've given up
Not gonna love when I know what I've given up
Long night, cold room
Hold tight, blue moon
And I'm not gonna love when I know what I've given up
(Windows open)
(Daylight broken)
(Windows open)
(And I'm not gonna love when I know what I've given up)
(Windows, cold room)
(Hold tight, blue moon)
(Long night, blue moon)
(And I'm not gonna love when I know what I've given up)
I am the favorite

So I'm not gonna love when I know what I've given up
Not gonna love when I know what I've given up
Windows open

And I'm not gonna love when I know what I've given up
Could be a warning

Not gonna love when I know what I've given up

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.

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,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
what the balls does this song mean
Not entirely sure on the meaning. Perhaps about being in some kind of situation where you're constantly being put down, getting fed up, and wanting to break free... but still sticking around? Meh. Don't know. Still, I like the lines "Long night, cold room. Hold tight, blue moon."
"I am the favorite In a fight that I can't win".....being told you're "the winner", but meaningless because you're certain you'll ultimately lose in the end, one way or another.
"So every morning I take another on my chin"......In moments when allow yourself to forget that, the realization afterwards feels like a punch in the face.
"But I never know, I never know, I never know the round I'm in, yeah".....very confused at times.
"So I'm not gonna love when I know what I've given up Not gonna love when I know what I've given up"......not going to give in to what feel/what want to feel, because it's not worth the price have to pay in exchange.
"Windows open Daylight broken"......seeing the light, in a moment of darkness.
"Could be a warning Could be the evidence of grace"......just because somethings tastes really, really good, doesn't mean it's actually good for you. Read the label.
"And I don't deserve, I don't deserve, I don't deserve to call this place my home"...no matter how much you want it, taking something that doesn't belong to you, is never right, even if it seems like it was made especially for you.
"And I'm getting tired, I'm getting tired of lying down instead of standing on my own"...need to stop being weak, and have the strength to stand up for what's right or to simply walk away.
"Long night, cold room Hold tight, blue moon. And I'm not gonna love when I know what I've given"......lonely, stay stong, don't let momentary pain get the best of you, because ultimately will feel much worse.
"Hey! There's something on my mind. Something I've been dying to say Hey! When you've lost so many times. The old familiar lines start to fade"....I'm really trying, but it's hard to stand tall sometimes, when I've been knocked down so many times before.
