So, I was sitting outside one day
Waiting for the dude to come down my way,
Praying, wishing, hoping, thinking,
And I felt my emotions sinking.
I've been waiting for the phone to ring,
I check constantly, but it was all a dream
I never thought you could be so mean!
Tired of the waiting, so it's time to come clean
And why do boys have to be so shady?
First it's all good and he's glad you his lady
Baby this, baby that, see another chick and he act like that.
But the thing with me, I can't take it,
Kept it a hundred, was real, now face it!
You gonna eat your words and I'mma make you happen
So, we're ready for the action.

'Cause you never were, and you never will be mine
That's right, that's right, that's right
No you never were and you never will be mine
That's right, that's right, that's right
There's a moment to seize every time that we meet,
But you always keep passing me by.
No, you never were, and you never will be mine

Yo, yo, yo
If you havin' problems with the one you love so much
And you wanna feel his touch,
Put your hand in the air, let them know that you truly care
You don't wanna do the fight fuss,
Getting sick of the love pain,
All the lies and the trust games,
Guessing, age don't make a difference,
And I'm getting fed up, so listen!
First you told me that you loved me dearly,

I loved you, did I make that clearly?
And you're thinking that you can play my game,
But I wanna think twice, so retain my claim
And I'm kinda mad at myself, cause I let you get the best of me,
To confess to me, her

Oh boy, I'm through!
Tell that chick that she better get at you

'Cause you never were, and you never will be mine
That's right, that's right, that's right
No you never were and you never will be mine
That's right, that's right, that's right
There's a moment to seize every time that we meet,
But you always keep passing me by.
No, you never were, and you never will be mine

Question: what happened to forever?
Me and you always together!
Too bad I was too much clever, can't be played a fool
That's never.
Suppose she made you happy or whatever
Learn from the past, proceed, get better
Good girl gone mad
Guess you didn't realize just what you had

'Cause you never were, and you never will be mine
That's right, that's right, that's right
No you never were and you never will be mine
That's right, that's right, that's right
'Cause you never were, and you never will be mine
That's right, that's right, that's right
No you never were and you never will be mine
There's a moment to seize every time that we meet,
But you always keep passing me by.
No, you never were, and you never will be mine

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

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”

Silent Planet
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.

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,

Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
