Fucked up, drunk and stoned
Every choice has a no
Speech slurred, I called you again
You're not even my friend
I did it again
Choked up, I gotta go
Every choice has a no
I'm broke, I don't belong
They're raping my favorite song
And every time I wake up I feel sad
I dream about the things I used to have
And how did I get into this?, I'm tied to it
Teased up, high hair disgust
No sex, a natural distrust
I don't care, you can't get through
I dig hating you
I did it again
Drink it up, pissed off
I'm a hack, you're a smoker's cough
I'd like to fuck, but you're too dumb
Gee, it's great being single and young
And every time I try to talk to you
I know there's something else you'd rather do
And how did I get into this?, I'm tied to it

And every time I wake up bruised
I know that my brain's not in use
And every time when things are great
I don't know why I detonate
I'm tied to it

I did it again

And every time I wake up bruised
I know that my brain's not in use
And every time when things are great
I don't know why I detonate
I'm tied to it

    I think he's at a Sports Bar with some shitty band playing. And he calls a girl for the billionth time knowing she doesn't like him. For me it essentially tells the same story as Weezer's "Butterfly" but in a much grittier fashion. Neat song.

This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io

Dreamwalker
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,

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.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
