Ashley Monroe – Daddy I Told You Lyrics 5 years ago
This song is about a (new) woman who has a supportive dad. Her dad always wanted her to have better than he had and to “get out” of the town that they are from. She notes that things are changing, and along with change she sees in other people, she sees herself changing for the better.

It is a song of hope.

Ashley Monroe – I'm Trying To Lyrics 5 years ago
This song is exactly what I’m going through right now.

For me, it is about knowing that you need to move on and leave someone alone but you just can’t. You can’t get them out of your head, you can’t stop reaching out.

“I call you up but I can’t get through
It’s a pill that won’t go down.”

The other person is trying to move on with their life so he ignores the narrator because it is for the better. The narrator should stop calling because she knows that she won’t get through. The fact that they are over is too hard of a pill for her to swallow, so she keeps reaching out hoping something will be different.

She knows that he is struggling too, but her struggle seems deeper.

Emmylou Harris – Easy From Now On Lyrics 6 years ago
I think this song is about a girl who is just about done with someone who has drug her around to the point of exhaustion. This song is a realization and a plan to get out of a bad cyclical relationship. The song indicates a “one last time” and the wild card up her sleeve is the fact that she is actually done this time.

But as for the application to my own life, it’s about someone who comes in and out. Every time he comes into town I see him and end up at at square one in this heartbreak. He comes and he goes as he pleases but leaves me destroyed every time, and as soon as I’m healed he comes back. For me this song is hope that one day I will be able to just let it go, and that will be by saying no. After I say no and follow through with it that initial time, living my life without him will be easy from that point on. My wildcard is leaving town when he comes so I can’t run back to him.
