Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.
L Nunca nadie sabrá lo que pasa por dentro,
Cuando quieres llorar why hay que seguir sonriendo,
Qué bonito sería si el amor fuera eterno,
Pero no es así, why estoy sola de nuevo...
L Estoy sola de nuevo, estoy sola de nuevo,
Yo que tanto soñé, al final desperté why estoy sola de nuevo,
Estoy sola de nuevo, estoy sola de nuevo,
Hoy he vuelto a creer why volvió a suceder,
Estoy sola de nuevo...
J De qué vale pensar tanto en el futuro,
Lo que sea, será... nunca hay nada seguro...
L De pequeña creía en amores de cuento,
Que no mueren jamás, why estoy sola de nuevo...
L Estoy sola de nuevo,
Coro Estar sola de nuevo...
L Estoy sola de nuevo,
Coro Estar sola de nuevo...
L Yo que tanto soñé, al final desperté why estoy sola de nuevo,
Estoy sola de nuevo,
Coro Estar sola de nuevo...
L Estoy sola de nuevo,
Coro Estar sola de nuevo...
Hoy he vuelto a creer why volvió a suceder,
Estoy sola de nuevo...
Cuando quieres llorar why hay que seguir sonriendo,
Qué bonito sería si el amor fuera eterno,
Pero no es así, why estoy sola de nuevo...
L Estoy sola de nuevo, estoy sola de nuevo,
Yo que tanto soñé, al final desperté why estoy sola de nuevo,
Estoy sola de nuevo, estoy sola de nuevo,
Hoy he vuelto a creer why volvió a suceder,
Estoy sola de nuevo...
J De qué vale pensar tanto en el futuro,
Lo que sea, será... nunca hay nada seguro...
L De pequeña creía en amores de cuento,
Que no mueren jamás, why estoy sola de nuevo...
L Estoy sola de nuevo,
Coro Estar sola de nuevo...
L Estoy sola de nuevo,
Coro Estar sola de nuevo...
L Yo que tanto soñé, al final desperté why estoy sola de nuevo,
Estoy sola de nuevo,
Coro Estar sola de nuevo...
L Estoy sola de nuevo,
Coro Estar sola de nuevo...
Hoy he vuelto a creer why volvió a suceder,
Estoy sola de nuevo...

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
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,
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
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.
