This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Come enter, here's my world
Closed off from pain and cold
Come enter, come inside
A secret place of light
'Cause in this world I'm rid of you, you can't get through
So here I am and I'm beautiful
and all my friends would say the same
So here I am; and you cannot deny that I am someone you'd embrace
I am the queen; I'm pure and loved by everyone
Come enter, here's my code
Through the world wide wire you'll know me
The queen of her own world
My story; meet my life
So now you see, there is another me
Not someone insecure and strange
My father's will in here, it doesn't mean a thing
And I don't fear his violent rage
I am the queen; you know I'm loved by everyone
Come enter, here's my code
Through the world wide wire you'll know
The queen of her own world
Stop dreaming and wake up
Your silly world is not what's real
This world of fake friends
and computers - digital deceit
This cyber wall (this cyber wall)
is built to break out or hold
The choice is yours (the choice is yours),
will you dream or see what's real?
Oh...no, no more
Just let me be alone with myself
These conflicting thoughts increase my doubts
I am the queen, I must be loved
This so-called 'wall' is there to protect
a life controlled by keys, closed off from pain and cold
Digital deceit...
digital, digital, digital...
Closed off from pain and cold
Come enter, come inside
A secret place of light
'Cause in this world I'm rid of you, you can't get through
So here I am and I'm beautiful
and all my friends would say the same
So here I am; and you cannot deny that I am someone you'd embrace
I am the queen; I'm pure and loved by everyone
Come enter, here's my code
Through the world wide wire you'll know me
The queen of her own world
My story; meet my life
So now you see, there is another me
Not someone insecure and strange
My father's will in here, it doesn't mean a thing
And I don't fear his violent rage
I am the queen; you know I'm loved by everyone
Come enter, here's my code
Through the world wide wire you'll know
The queen of her own world
Stop dreaming and wake up
Your silly world is not what's real
This world of fake friends
and computers - digital deceit
This cyber wall (this cyber wall)
is built to break out or hold
The choice is yours (the choice is yours),
will you dream or see what's real?
Oh...no, no more
Just let me be alone with myself
These conflicting thoughts increase my doubts
I am the queen, I must be loved
This so-called 'wall' is there to protect
a life controlled by keys, closed off from pain and cold
Digital deceit...
digital, digital, digital...

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.
Page
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
This is a song about trying to get away from one's parents and go to the internet into a false world. In this false world, she feels like she's the queen because she gets more attention there and not have to worry about those problems at home.
Close enough, yep.
I think in a similar way to anime_freak2000.
"Come enter, here's my world Closed off from pain and cold Come enter, come inside A secret place of light 'Cause in this world I'm rid of you, you can't get through" "So here I am and I'm beautiful and all my friends would say the same"
The song is about being unhappy in real life and using the internet as a refuge, where you can be somewhere else and be the center of attentions and simply forget your problems.
"Stop dreaming and wake up Your silly world is not what's real This world of fake friends and computers - digital deceit"
However that world is merely an illusion and many of those friends arent really your friends. The girl has a very low self-steem and needs to be loved and feel beautiful :
"I am the queen, I must be loved This so-called 'wall' is there to protect a life controlled by keys, closed off from pain and cold"
Be careful, the internet is full of traps, it looks like an easy way out to things but it can be serious problem and strange you from reality.
