This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I'm tired of living in Asia,
I'm tired of walking alone.
I'm thinking of crossing the border.
Whoa, to a new romance,
New romance,
New romance.
I'm drifting away from the mainland,
I'm drifting away from the shore.
I'll try not to look back in anger,
I've tried not to look back at all.
Back at all,
Back at all
She moves like a shadow in motion,
She moves like a shadow of night;
A figure from over the ocean,
A figure surrounded by the light.
By the light,
By the light
She's over the border,
She's over the border,
Over the border.
I'm tired of walking alone.
I'm thinking of crossing the border.
Whoa, to a new romance,
New romance,
New romance.
I'm drifting away from the mainland,
I'm drifting away from the shore.
I'll try not to look back in anger,
I've tried not to look back at all.
Back at all,
Back at all
She moves like a shadow in motion,
She moves like a shadow of night;
A figure from over the ocean,
A figure surrounded by the light.
By the light,
By the light
She's over the border,
She's over the border,
Over the border.

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,

Amazing

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.
