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.
Hello?
It's Too Short baby wassup
Hhmmm mmmm, you tell me
Shit, I'm comin out that way tonight, I'm tryin ta get with you
Oh, really?

Well look, as soon as I get there I'ma call you aight?
Bring me what I need?

When you need some one to talk to, someone to fuck you (call me)
Satisfaction guaranteed, (just call me) I'll give you what you need
When you need some one to talk to, someone to fuck you (call me)
Satisfaction guaranteed, (just call me) I'll give you what you need
My plane touches down at eleven forty-five
I'm comin thru, want you bout to show you why
I got the game from the pimps and players
You goin feel me, baby when I get there
I'm a give you what you want so I could get what I need
We could get hella freaky while we smoke some weed
We don't need champagne, fuck the gin and juice
These nigga's know what Short Dawg and Lil' Kim can do
Imagination is a understatement
Anything you can think of we could make it
Big money hit records
Watch us get reckless
We butt-naked, we never sexless
And when I get there, you know it's time to fuck
Cuz all night long ain't long enough ta come up
It's just us
Ya wanna know sumthin it's a big dick tight pussy thang
Make us both cum
Call me when you need some one to talk to, someone to fuck you (call me)
Satisfaction guaranteed, (just call me) I'll give you what you need
Everybody know the Queen gettin down and dirty
Drive you crazy like a 730
It ain't a secret
Rumors they could keep it
You know there's only one ghetto Queen with a guillotine
Real bitch that carry gats by the spleen
Na mean?
Some bitch is on the other line, answer that
If it's a booty call cancel that
You want pure satisfaction I'ma handle that
All I need is a candle and the porno channel
Lubricate the top, now I'm startin to sweat
Peel my Gucci sheets back so they don't get wet
Now check it
Adjust ya phone volume Lil' Kim is shore ta bring the nuts out ya
Imagine me suckin blood out ya
Like a hickey, I love the phone quickie
I slip myself a mickey, now thats the proper set off
You could reach out and touch ME MCI style
Kim and Short fuckin Cali bed sty style
Tell me what you want, I'll tell you what I need
You could fuck me til I bleed
Oh Short I'm bout ta OG
(And I like it)
Call me when you need some one to talk to, someone to fuck you (call me)

Call me when you need some one to talk to, someone to fuck you (call me)
Satisfaction guaranteed, (just call me) I'll give you what you need

Then ride me nigga like you do them V-12's

And I'll be all up in the cock from midnight to six o'clock
The way you suck dick you off the heez-ay

This ain't no 69 it's more like a 138, everytime we have sex it's
Like watchin dirty tapes, yer my personal, private porno star
Ya wanna see us fuck buy the tape at the corner store
Queen Bee gettin stung by Too Sheezee

In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
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.
