Like Sugar

Matchbox Twenty

I'm walking behind you
Calling the way you, give away all your secrets
You're taking the high road
Picking your battles, just like the day I found you

I just wanna make you go away
But you taste like sugar, yeah you taste like sugar
I just wanna make you go away
But you taste like sugar, yeah you taste like sugar

Whoa, oh oh oh, whoa whoa
Whoa, oh oh oh, whoa whoa

I'm starting to want you, more than I want to
This ain't my finest hour
There's something about you, that I could get into
Something that's deep inside you

I just wanna make you go away, yeah
But you taste like sugar, yeah you taste like sugar
I just wanna make you go away
But you taste like sugar, girl you taste like sugar

Whoa, oh oh oh, whoa whoa
Whoa, oh oh oh, whoa whoa

If, I, turn, away, away
I'll, come back, some day.
Oh

I just wanna make you go away
But you taste like sugar, yeah you taste like sugar
I just wanna make you go away
But you taste like sugar, girl you taste like sugar

Whoa, oh oh oh, whoa whoa
Whoa, oh oh oh, whoa whoa

    It's not really similar to disease but sounds like disease for me..coz both songs he is being vulnerable and asking to give some secret away though he wants to go away from her..

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Dreamwalker
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,

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.

Amazing
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.
