See that shelter by the road
That's where I used to go
With my friends, with my friends
But I didn't know

Drinking til we went home
Until we got too cold
Cause in the morning we'd be working
In a shop with clothes

Always wanted to be someone else
Her on the cover, her on the shelf
Really, all I needed was myself

But we did cry over someone
Got drunk and lied to her mom
When we were two worlds away
There we are today

So late feeling like it
Nothing left in the tear proof
Cause you're always two worlds away
There you'll be one day
There you'll be one day

See by that old brick wall
That's where I used to walk
On my way to meet that guy
Who I loved so

And I'd had only been one month
But I swore he was the one
Til I found him on the backstreet
Kissing that friend I lost

Always wanted to be someone else
Her on the cover, her on the shelf
Really, all I needed was myself

But we did cry over someone
Got drunk and lied to her and
When we were two worlds away
There we are today

So late feeling like it
Nothing left in the tear proof
Cause you're always two worlds away
There you'll be one day
There you'll be one day

Befriend ends and end
And love is almost loose
Befriend ends and end
But love is almost loose

But we did cry over someone
Got drunk and lied to her mom
When we were two worlds away
There we are today

So late feeling like it
Nothing left in the tear proof
Cause you're always two worlds away

People change and people grow
Love can heal a broken soul
But you are all you need and all you'll know
Indeed it's never a mistake
To be afraid of what you face
Cause you were always two worlds away
That's where you'll be one day
There you'll be one day

Mountain Song
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."

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,

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

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.
