The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
Come to me, lord of filth
Hear my cries princes of nightmares
Touch us with your morbid lips
Let us taste your foulness
Bleed for the devil
Impious mortal lives
Feel the enticing power
Fill the chasm of your soul
Fill the air with the smell of death
Grace us with your magick
Fill the night with the stench of evil
I summon forth the beast
Cold look in his eyes
He holds the gleaming knife
Girl cries as he cuts away the
Strips of flesh
Hear my cries princes of nightmares
Touch us with your morbid lips
Let us taste your foulness
Bleed for the devil
Impious mortal lives
Feel the enticing power
Fill the chasm of your soul
Fill the air with the smell of death
Grace us with your magick
Fill the night with the stench of evil
I summon forth the beast
Cold look in his eyes
He holds the gleaming knife
Girl cries as he cuts away the
Strips of flesh

The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

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/

i wish i was old enough back in '89 to truly appreicaite this masterpiece
SACRIFICE...soul for toll...for hatred...for greed...
They bash on God cuz he's a cunt. You fucker. You don't seem to understand what black/death metal is about. If you don't like the band them FUCK OFF AND DONT POST SHIT YOU CHRISTIAN EMO FUCKER. Get the Hell out of here you pussy. Go read Hawthorne Heights lyrics. Sounds like your kinda shit. This songs about uh, lemme think, oh wait I got it here somewhere, SATAN!
Buggiedide... you shouldn't be reading these lyrics, or even thinking about morbid angel if you are a christian scumbag. Don't you have better things to do than make futile attempts to demean Morbid Angel? Shouldn't you be in a church sucking some priest's cock?
disgusting... they bash God because they can't think of anything else.
This music hales Satan and all his attempts to bring mankind to ruins, how sad to give your life up for somebody like him, you must have no self worth what so ever to give your life up for such a lost cause, I'd rather chose life, and be freinds with Jesus.
