This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Never again
I'll slit my throat with the knife I pulled out of my spine
Maybe when you find out that I'm dead
You'll realize what you did to me
And if my lungs still let me breathe
Would you be there for me?
If I can make myself believe
I'll give you back what you took away
No, I won't let it go
Douse myself in gasoline
So don't save me when you come into the fire
I'd rather die than have to see your smile
And if my lungs still let me breathe
Would you be there for me?
If I can make myself believe
I'll give you back what you took away
You made me swear
You made me swear
I, I can't sleep
Realize all these things that you took from me
Smash my heart (You made me swear)
Into dust (You made me swear)
Suffocate my mind (You made me swear)
Tear at me from inside (You made me swear)
Smash apart what you created
How can I ever stop you from crushing my soul?
It was, it was yours, yours to begin with
And if my lungs still let me breathe
Would you be there for me?
If I can make myself believe
I'll give you back what you took away
I'll slit my throat with the knife I pulled out of my spine
Maybe when you find out that I'm dead
You'll realize what you did to me
And if my lungs still let me breathe
Would you be there for me?
If I can make myself believe
I'll give you back what you took away
No, I won't let it go
Douse myself in gasoline
So don't save me when you come into the fire
I'd rather die than have to see your smile
And if my lungs still let me breathe
Would you be there for me?
If I can make myself believe
I'll give you back what you took away
You made me swear
You made me swear
I, I can't sleep
Realize all these things that you took from me
Smash my heart (You made me swear)
Into dust (You made me swear)
Suffocate my mind (You made me swear)
Tear at me from inside (You made me swear)
Smash apart what you created
How can I ever stop you from crushing my soul?
It was, it was yours, yours to begin with
And if my lungs still let me breathe
Would you be there for me?
If I can make myself believe
I'll give you back what you took away

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

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,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
i gave this song to my ex after she told me she had a miscarriage and ran off to her ex just to find out about 8 months later that she was having the kid and saying she didn't know the father, so she could but it up for adoption and then had her friend call and tell me so i would know but not be able to stop her or get the kid...
