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.
Does he love me I want to know
How can I tell if he loves me so
Is it in his eyes?
Oh no, you'll be deceived
Is it in his eyes?
Oh no, he'll make believe
If you want to know if he loves you so
It's in his kiss
That's where it is
Oh yeah
Or is it in his face?
Oh no, that's just his charms
In his warm embrace?
Oh no, that's just his arms
If you want to know if he loves you so
It's in his kiss
That's where it is
Whoa-oh, it's in his kiss
That's where it is
Whoa, hug him and squeeze him tight
Find out what you want to know
If it's love, if it really is
It's there in his kiss
How about the way he acts?
Oh no, that's not the way
And you're not listenin' to all I say
If you wanna know if he loves you so
It's in his kiss
That's where it is
Oh, it's in his kiss
That's where it is
Whoa-oh, hug him and squeeze him tight
Find out what you want to know
If it's love, if it really is
It's there in his kiss
How about the way he acts?
Oh no, that's not the way
And you're not listenin' to all I say
And if you wanna know if he loves you so
It's in his kiss
That's where it is
Oh whoa, it's in his kiss
That's where it is
Oh yeah, it's in his kiss
That's where it is
Ooh it's in his kiss
That's where it is
It's in his kiss
That's where it is
It's in his kiss
That's where it is
It's in his kiss
That's where it is
It's in his kiss
That's where it is
It's in his kiss
That's where it is
It's in his kiss
That's where it is
How can I tell if he loves me so
Is it in his eyes?
Oh no, you'll be deceived
Is it in his eyes?
Oh no, he'll make believe
If you want to know if he loves you so
It's in his kiss
That's where it is
Oh yeah
Or is it in his face?
Oh no, that's just his charms
In his warm embrace?
Oh no, that's just his arms
If you want to know if he loves you so
It's in his kiss
That's where it is
Whoa-oh, it's in his kiss
That's where it is
Whoa, hug him and squeeze him tight
Find out what you want to know
If it's love, if it really is
It's there in his kiss
How about the way he acts?
Oh no, that's not the way
And you're not listenin' to all I say
If you wanna know if he loves you so
It's in his kiss
That's where it is
Oh, it's in his kiss
That's where it is
Whoa-oh, hug him and squeeze him tight
Find out what you want to know
If it's love, if it really is
It's there in his kiss
How about the way he acts?
Oh no, that's not the way
And you're not listenin' to all I say
And if you wanna know if he loves you so
It's in his kiss
That's where it is
Oh whoa, it's in his kiss
That's where it is
Oh yeah, it's in his kiss
That's where it is
Ooh it's in his kiss
That's where it is
It's in his kiss

It's in his kiss
That's where it is
It's in his kiss
That's where it is
It's in his kiss
That's where it is
It's in his kiss
That's where it is

I Can't Go To Sleep

Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
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.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
