The alarm left a ringing in my head
It took an army just to get me out of bed
I struggled with the blankets and bad breath
It's not exhaustion but I wished that I was dead or somewhere else instead
I had a shot after I skipped breakfast
I heard somebody talk about the wines of New Zealand
It was hard enough to get up and dressed
I don't know how to stop or control my breathing
I think that means I should go to meetings
I don't have complaints
I'm just having a bad day
Everything was so great now I'm back at the start and I won't cave
Unless I'm feeling anxious, nervous, terrified, or provoked
It's like a punch line to a really horrible joke
Can I get a hold of myself or someone can tough talk me into an asylum?
Strap me down and beat out the demons and let me go when I feel like leaving?
I don't have complaints
I've made plenty of mistakes
Everything is so strange
I was fast asleep now I'm wide-awake
Now I'm wide-awake
I spent time in the gutter watch my eyelids flutter
I couldn't get it straight without a little taste
I know it's not right to piss away my life
I wouldn't be here now if I could slow down

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"

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.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
