This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
analyze the devices
war with thee
pieces of your destiny corrupted
rise
thriving
can you verify the last contents
the gravel lodged in your throat
a flesh box cavity
gradual eruption probe
one that feeds
hands that caress a crooked spine
absorbing bi-products
prompt exchanges
that will deconstruct
move on forward
signs that will pierce like labor pains
sharp
ways of a drunkard
the dogs shall devour and lap up their blood
stains
persist
the prime suspects will now restrain
with affection
recession
final effects of a broken hope
of a broken shell
of a broken yoke
walk and learn from these
deviant
loss of wealth
subservient
guarantine divisions
the double edged sword
depth incision
glutton eat your fill
divination is that of a swine babbling in their filth
beware of the things hibernation in your skull
reeking havoc
malignant cells still active
schemes that will inflict my son
schemes that run rampant
if the disease of self
leaves a heavy burden on your spirit
it must be removed
like bricks in the belly
you will sink into the depths
war with thee
pieces of your destiny corrupted
rise
thriving
can you verify the last contents
the gravel lodged in your throat
a flesh box cavity
gradual eruption probe
one that feeds
hands that caress a crooked spine
absorbing bi-products
prompt exchanges
that will deconstruct
move on forward
signs that will pierce like labor pains
sharp
ways of a drunkard
the dogs shall devour and lap up their blood

leaves a heavy burden on your spirit
it must be removed
like bricks in the belly
you will sink into the depths

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
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/
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Sunglasses at Night
Corey Hart
Corey Hart
In the 1980s, sunglasses were a common fashion for people who wanted to adopt a "tough guy" persona (note all the cop shows from that era -- Simon & Simon, Miami Vice, etc. -- where the lead characters wore shades). So I think this song is about a guy who wears shades as a way of hiding his insecurity after learning that his girlfriend is cheating on him. He's trying to pretend that he's a "tough guy" to hide the fact that his girlfriend's affair is disturbing him.
i have no idea as to what this song means... but i do know that it relieves anger when listened to! this kicks ass!
This has got to be one of the most amazing bands on the planet. They can cram more good ideas into one riff than lots of bands can fit into their entire careers.
one word to describe this song ... beautiful
that's not exactly the word i would use
