One last hit for you. Two last hits for me?
One too many times I've felt this way about you.
Here's the poison for your lungs, smoke it down 'til you throw up.
Than I'll reach down and put some sense right down your throat.

Your poison's so played out.
And all the lies from your heart beating.
Left me cold it's let me out.
But you can't break me down.
And all the love from your heart beating. Drive me out of town.

I've tried to make this life have meaning for myself, but all you do is make life a living hell.
Soldiers, say no, we'll find our way home.
So I search and search for the answers. The stars lead us nowhere.

Your poison's so played out.
And all the lies from your heart beating.
Left me cold it's let me out.
But you can't break me down.
And all the love from your heart beating. Drive me out of town.

Drive out on this, drive out on this sound.
Your poison's so played out and all the lies from your heart beating
(this poison) (wont break you down)

    its one last hit for you, two pills here for me.

    and its I've tried to make this life have meaning for myself, but all you do is make life a living hell. So just, say no, we'll find our way home. So I search and search for the answers. These doors will lead us nowhere.

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"

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”

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

Page
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.
