In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
It's been along time since we last hit the sheets
Fucked like dogs and sweated from the body heat
I was movin my ass slowly and you told me to hold you
And like a folder, you told me to fold you
To the position where I get it from the backside
Open your legs wide and let me get inside
Caressin your body and your scratching my back up
I'm strokin and yo pussy chokin so I just slack up
Strok it like a real one I grab ya side
Ya tellin me how it feels so good as my dick slips and slides
In and out ya pussy as you tell me your cummin
The way my dick rocked that ass I swear I was drummin
Here I cum, dumb ditty dumb I gotta nut so
Can't hold it no longer so I let it flow
Oh damn, oh you on the pill
You told me to chill
I didn't wear a rubber 'cause I like the real feel
(Chorus)
The feel...It's just gotta be real
The feel...It's just gotta be real
The feel...It's just gotta be real
The feel...
I like a pussy to be wet, steamin hot when I get inside
I bet it's sweat but yet
Still, I don't like a dead fuck
Talking bout makin love, can't even get my head sucked
Fuck that I'm on the other tip
Bitch come my way and get dick whipped
I like bitches, bitches let me break it down
Some ho's wanna fake it don't even make a sound
You see, I cum like the ocean and stroke like a breeze
The friction from my stroke made it 100 degrees
In the room, I ride that ass like a broom
This is another fuck song, this ain't a dance tune
I made it like this 'cause I'm not your love maker
I'm a back breaker, it take a strong pussy to take a
Dick like this, but you would love the pain
You would love the strain, get tired and change
But I'm a contain my nut until your ready to deal
'cause I'm a chill and I like the real feel
(Chorus)
The feel...It's just gotta be real
The feel...It's just gotta be real
The feel...It's just gotta be real
The feel...
Let's pretend we're married and carry on like fool's
I'll break your pussy like a high school rule
We're fuckin and suckin, I'm strokin and hopin
You'll have the strength to keep your legs open
No doubt you do, so I put you in the buck
Your pussy lips suck everytime we fuck
Your cummin like water and drippin from slippin
My dick is the belt and ya get an ass whippin
You love me so you take the pain, but it hurts so good
Flip you on yo stomach and fuck you like a man should
Call you my baby 'cause you fuckin me crazy
My dick get's hard if you look at me or graze me
I'm so in love with fucking you, everyday that's what we do
_____?_____ me and you F-you-see-K-I-N-G
I ain't tryin to hurt your feelings 'cause you know the deal
I like you, but I love the feel
(Chorus)
The feel...It's just gotta be real
The feel...It's just gotta be real
The feel...It's just gotta be real
The feel...
Fucked like dogs and sweated from the body heat
I was movin my ass slowly and you told me to hold you
And like a folder, you told me to fold you
To the position where I get it from the backside
Open your legs wide and let me get inside
Caressin your body and your scratching my back up
I'm strokin and yo pussy chokin so I just slack up

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”

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.
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."
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
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.
