I feel it coming like the thunder and the wind
There's no use running away from the pain that lies within
Can we let go, breathing helps the soul
Help us to know, there are things we can't control
Only our souls will survive
We are just people passing through the night
On our way home a skeleton chases
Weaving my way through hidden faces
I wonder, is this dream real running in place inside the wheel
Please someone tell me something or all of this will be for nothing
Here's the simple meaning, hidden faces are deceiving
Ice is forming on the window pain of my mind
Frozen rain is flowing through the veins that we call time
Waiting for someone to finally tell me
Why does everything always feel so heavy
There must be something more that this
I close my eyes to reminisce
And there's those hidden faces, all the things that pain embraces
I know the simple meaning, hold the heart to keep from bleeding
I hear it coming, in the breaking of the waves
There's no use running away, when you hear them call your name
There's something heavy
In your eyes, I'm here to help if you'll let me try
I know of the dark places, I hear whispers from those hidden faces

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.

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”

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
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,

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
