Lost in slumber
A threat to no one
Weak and humbled
In my disgrace

Sweet departure
Is what I long for
Careless moments
To comfort me

Dead philosophy

If I offer you my soul
Will you carry me away?
I cannot be the only one
To be dehumanized again
Left behind

Too determined
To be forgotten
Nothing left to enrapture me
Hard and silent but softly breaking
No beloved to comfort me

Ooh, dead philosophy

If I offer you my soul
Will you carry me away?
I cannot be the only one
To be dehumanized again
Left behind

Feel the determination built into my mind

You're never gonna find me
I'll wipe the world away
Your face it will remind me
Just how much I have to leave

If I offer you my soul
Will you carry me away?
I cannot be the only one
To be dehumanized again, tell
If I offer you my soul
Will you carry me away?
I cannot be the only one
To be dehumanized again

Left behind

Into my mind

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
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”

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
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,

Magical
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.
