Maybe I could fall
Baby, I could fall apart
To conceal, to protect, to serve and to reject

I'm turning into something
Go all the way to the right
I'm going past, I'm going past, I'm going past the next two lights.

[Chorus:]
Hit the streets
They talk to me
A fickle beast who's nice today
It's such a waste, another day
Such a waste, But it feels great
But it feels great

It feels great

Everything has taken a turn
In disguise as what I want
I can leave her
I cantilever
But I keep coming back for more

I'm turning into something
Go all the way to the right
I'm going past, I'm going past, I'm going past the next two lights

[Chorus: x2]

But it feels great today

It may be a waste
Another day
It feels great

It may be a waste
Another day
But it feels great
It feels great

    I can leave her, I cantilever, but I keep coming back... for more.

    he's saying he keeps doing all these things that are a waste of time (maybe he knows his relationship with the girl isn't going anywhere) but he doesn't care because he's having fun, he's happy.

    Honestly, I don't think that anyone ever gives fischerspooner enough philosophical credit. This song reeks of the slow decay of a wasteful lifestyle. In the beginning you find a plea to the fragility of the human mind, or at least the humanity of that mind.

    you then have a system of edicts, rules to live by. I can't say for sure whether these are rules for the life before the indulgence or of the indulgence itself.

    He talks about turning into something other than what he is, progressing further and further into whatever creature he sees at the end of the tunnel.

    Suddenly everything is different. Maybe there's an incongruence between the lifestyle and the edicts, either way, despite recognizing the change, he continues progressing and changing and indulging.

    in the end, that's all there is left. There's no reasoning, just the proclamation that no matter if he's lost himself and everything he used to be and everything that surrounded him, at least it still feels good. Even if his insides and his environment is deteriorating due to stagnation, denial, indulgence and overall negligent nature, at least it's still fun.

    At least he's still "happy."

    This song is about Casey Spooner's relationship with New York City

    'I wanted to write about the city because it’s a very intense and special place to me. It’s really kind of defined my character. I don’t think I could be doing what I do anywhere else in the world, but I’m telling you this town can be a bitch.

    It’s like an unconquerable beast and you just don’t know what each day is going to be like. Some days it’s the most voluptuous, incredible, epic place that sort of takes you to an ecstatic realm. Sometimes just walking down the street, there is such an energy, joy and excitement in being here. Then there are other days, when it feels like she’s literally just bearing down on you. You can’t do anything right and nothing is easy. And she won’t let you in. So it was like taking those feelings that at times are bitter sweet and talking about my relationship with the city.'

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Just A Little Lovin'
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/

Punchline
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.
