Seed

Mudvayne

Fall down
Can't pick myself up off the ground
Head down
I see catastrophe
And it's right in front of me

Mother, father, please don't me choose between you
I love both of you
Mother, please, all I want to be is just little me
Father, please, all I want to be is you're son
No fair

Trespass the tiny mind of a child
Despair
In my world surrounds me
It's immerse me
Rips right through me
Remember

The day they told me, I'm so scared
Suffer
My wounds not healing
Mother, please, all I want to be is just little me
Father, please, all I want to be is your son

Sometimes
In dark my mind will roam
To a time
I spent alone
As a child, as a small boy
As a child, as a small boy

I remember times as a child I knew
As for my love, I still see it
I remember times as a child I knew
Too many moralisists in my life
I knew times as a child I know
I looked into my father's eyes
I remember times as a child when I looked
And I screamed

I still scream, and I say
Look at what you did to me
See what you did to me
Look at what you did to me
See what you did to me
Look at what you did to me
See what you did to me
Look at what you did to me
See what you did to me
Look at what you did to me
See what you did to me
Look at what you did to me
See what you did to me
Look at what you did to me
See what you did to me

I died that day
All I want to say

Mother, please, all I want to be is a little deep inside of you
Father, please, all I want to be is a little back inside of you

What now?
Fuck you!
What now?
Fuck you!
What now?
Fuck you!
What now?
Fuck you!
What now?
Fuck!

    Mother father please dont make me choose between you-that line pretty much says it's obviously about divorce.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

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/
