Through The Trees

Low Shoulder

All alone in an empty room
Nothing left but the memories of when I had my best frIend
I don't know how we ended up here
I don't know but it's never been so clear
We made a mistake, dear
And I see the broken glass in front of me
I see your shadow hangIng over me
And your face, I can see

Through the trees
I wIll find you
I wIll heal the ruins left inside you
'Cause I'm stIll here breathing now
I'm still here breathing now
I'm still here breathIng now
UntIl I'm set free
Go quiet through the trees

I remember how we used to talk
About the places we would go when we were off
And all that we were gonna find
And I remember our seeds grow
And how you cried when you saw
The first leaves show
The love was pouring from your eyes

So can you see
The branches hanging over me?
Can you see
The love you left inside of me?
In my face
Can you see?

Through the trees
I will find you
I will heal the ruins left inside you
'Cause I'm still here breathing now
I'm still here breathing now
I'm still here breathing now
Until I'm set free
Go quiet through the trees

'Cause you're not coming back
And you're not coming back
No, no, no
You're not coming back
You're not coming back

Take my breath as your own
Take my eyes to guide you home

'Cause I'm still here breathing now
I'ms till here breathing now
I'm still here breathing now
And I'm still here

'Cause I'm still here breathing now
I'm still here breathing now
I'm still here breathing now
And I'm still here

'Cause I'm still here breathing now
I'm still here breathing now
I'm still here breathing now
And I'm still here

But you're not coming back
And you're not coming bac.
'Cause you're not coming back
Until I'm set free
Go quiet through the trees

    My Interpretation

    the song, in my own interpretation is about having someone you really love that he/she becomes your best friend and you spend a lot of time with each other but time comes that you argue for some reason/s and thus it leads your relationship to fall apart and then you realized each others mistakes and ended up realizing you love that someone more than anything but it's all been said and done. Then you do things to make things right and save the relationship but then it seems like that someone is tired and have already give up. So the feelings you shared is still there yet it's broken now and though you already know that someone is never ever coming back, you still wait until you heal and accept the fact that it's really over and you just have to let go :(

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

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/

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
