This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I don't want to feel this pain that I am feeling
You hammer each nail into my skin
I was riding high with my foolish optimism
Never noticed what I was in
Cross my heart and hope to die
Cross my heart and hope to die
Cross my heart and hope to die
Cross my heart and hope to die
Nothing changes when you never ever change
I just fall in love with everyone that says my name
Fell apart but found you as a friend to believe in
Then I fell and you saw and you laughed and you left
It's the same over again, it's the same over again
It's the same over again, it's the same over again
Cross my heart and hope to die
Cross my heart and hope to die
Cross my heart and hope to die
Cross my heart and hope to die
You hammer each nail into my skin
I was riding high with my foolish optimism
Never noticed what I was in
Cross my heart and hope to die
Cross my heart and hope to die
Cross my heart and hope to die
Cross my heart and hope to die
Nothing changes when you never ever change
I just fall in love with everyone that says my name
Fell apart but found you as a friend to believe in
Then I fell and you saw and you laughed and you left
It's the same over again, it's the same over again
It's the same over again, it's the same over again
Cross my heart and hope to die
Cross my heart and hope to die
Cross my heart and hope to die
Cross my heart and hope to die

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
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,
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/
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.
