Sucked through filters
Pre-digested, safety tested
News, prose, poetry shot through CCD
And fired at your retina
Mass produced and mass consumed
Hatred disguised as primetime family entertainment
High definition insight
Realization via satellite

And I wonder how this can be
The ingenious minds that made me
I wonder how it feels to feel
And I wonder can an android with a digital brain go insane?
I wondered how it feels to feel

Death denying comfort junkies on the treadmill
Looking backward at a foaming wake of
What never was
I'm assigned as I'm programmed to serve them
They deserve themselves
I've overstayed my invitation
It's time for self-induced disintegration

And I wonder how this can be
The ingenious minds that made me
I wonder how it feels to feel
And I wonder can an android with a digital brain go insane?
I wondered how it feels to feel

And I wonder how this can be
The ingenious minds that made me
I wonder how it feels to feel
And I wonder can an android with a digital brain go insane?
I wondered how it feels to feel

I wonder how it feels to feel...

Jesse with the long hair....
Robert Earl Keen, Jr.
Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.

Corpse I Fell In Love With
Gadjits, The
He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

He certainly did earn that reputation.

The Spy
Doors, The
Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
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.
