Stoneface

Veruca Salt

Didn't notice I was gone
'Cause you were tying up your arm
Oh...
And when I stand on my head

You never react
I can't get you to crack
I can't get you to crack
Not one fucking smile

And when it comes right down to it
I'm gonna run right back to him
I want a peace mapped out
'Cause I really love his stoneface, oh

I really love his stoneface, oh
I really love it
A snaky goddess got my man, man
That kind of love don't understand

Him
Oh, oh
And when I swallow my gum
You never react

I can't get you to crack
I can't get you to crack
Not one fucking smile
And when it comes right down to it

I'm gonna run right back to him
I want a peace mapped out
'Cause I really love his stoneface, oh
I really love his stoneface, oh

I really love it
Swallow hard, until you
I'll be the one to thrill you
I'll be the first to kill you

And if you won't die, I will
When I shortsheet the bed
You never react
I can't get you to crack

I can't get you to crack
I can't get you to crack
I can't get you to crack
I can't get you to crack

Not one fucking smile
And when it comes right down to it
I'm gonna run right back to him
I want a piece knocked out of him

I really love his stoneface, oh
I really love his stoneface, oh
I really love it

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,

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.
