This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Maybe you were right after all
Maybe I'm just bad news
I've been drowning in memories
Call it residual booze
I fell asleep watching Veronica Mars again
I still futz with that tourniquet
I tried to squeeze on your dreams
Slung it on, it's a perfect fit
What do you suppose that means
My parents keep asking
When you're planning on coming around
If we'd only stayed together
I might not have fallen apart
But the words you served destroyed my planet
I'll stall before I start
I'll stall before I start anything at all
Got a job at Uncommon Grounds
I finally shaved off that beard
Sold my Xbox to Jimmy down the street
Hell, I even quit smoking weed
I'm taking an online course
I'm learning to speak Japanese
If we'd only stayed together
I might not have fallen apart
But the words you served destroyed my planet
I'll stall before I start
I'll stall before I start anything at all
The things that used to mean so much to me
Have gone the way of dinosaurs
Hopes and dreams and everything
All I want for you to be is happy or something
I guess anything is better than the time you spent
Hoping I got it sorted out
I sent you a postcard but the post office sent it back
They said the building's been torn down
I just miss what I thought we both had
If we'd only stayed together
I might not have fallen apart
But the words you served destroyed my planet
It's all my fucking fault
If we'd only stayed together
I might not have fallen apart
But the words you served destroyed my planet
I'll stall before I start
I'll stall before I start anything at all
Maybe I'm just bad news
I've been drowning in memories
Call it residual booze
I fell asleep watching Veronica Mars again
I still futz with that tourniquet
I tried to squeeze on your dreams
Slung it on, it's a perfect fit
What do you suppose that means
My parents keep asking
When you're planning on coming around
If we'd only stayed together
I might not have fallen apart
But the words you served destroyed my planet
I'll stall before I start
I'll stall before I start anything at all
Got a job at Uncommon Grounds
I finally shaved off that beard
Sold my Xbox to Jimmy down the street
Hell, I even quit smoking weed
I'm taking an online course
I'm learning to speak Japanese
If we'd only stayed together
I might not have fallen apart
But the words you served destroyed my planet
I'll stall before I start
I'll stall before I start anything at all
The things that used to mean so much to me
Have gone the way of dinosaurs
Hopes and dreams and everything
All I want for you to be is happy or something
I guess anything is better than the time you spent
Hoping I got it sorted out
I sent you a postcard but the post office sent it back
They said the building's been torn down
I just miss what I thought we both had
If we'd only stayed together
I might not have fallen apart
But the words you served destroyed my planet
It's all my fucking fault
If we'd only stayed together
I might not have fallen apart
But the words you served destroyed my planet
I'll stall before I start
I'll stall before I start anything at all

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
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
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/
American Town
Ed Sheeran
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.
Page

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.
These lyrics need to be changed. I'm pretty sure it's "I guess anything is better than the time you spent hoping I’d get it sorted out."
