In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Is this what I wish for those and all they know?
Could depend on how coward I should act
(From hell or does come it from within?)
If she won't give me the love I came here for
With pen, I am armed here to react
Hey now, hey now, what is it boy?
All the things that trouble you
So visit your mirror image
Of what might have once behaved
Hey now, hey now, what is it boy?
But I won't rest
Till dead, till dead do you part
This is how I feel my god from what's been dealt
The flies that flutter fight tonight
(From hell or does come it from within?)
Is it love that I'm feeling or is this hate the same?
The emotion's enough to kill the sane
Hey now, hey now, what is it boy?
All the things that trouble you
So visit your mirror image
Of what might have once behaved
Hey now, hey now, what is it boy?
Besides, I only hope you know that I love you
Oh, I hope
Feed, little maggots, off the west side of your sin
Run, little maggot, till they learn of what you did
Feed, little maggots, off the west side of your sin
Run, little maggot, till they learn of what you did
(Feliz sería a qué hora)
(Feliz sería a qué hora)
(Feliz sería a qué hora)
(Feliz sería a qué hora)
From start to finish, I've made you feel this
Uncomfort in turn, with the world you've learned
To love through this hate, to live with its weight
A burden discerned in the blood you taste
Why would you deny me answers?
If I'm just a boy on the brink of being
Horror and hell through its fires
Be brutally honest, was it better before me?
The curve of your body
How I want, how I want her with me
The truth of the story
The Vishual, I wish you all
The better end of all to come
The truth be now here, one by one
I am to you, extend to none
The memory to fuel the fire
Watching his tale with the words he unfolds
Conscience and cold, we'd never know
They scream as he laughs off the dust from his eyes
These words will now learn of the dreams in his mind
Could this be that hard for me?
To configure a new love in hate
To my new entity or banish it home to the grave
No one is safe
With the quickness strike out, for the less of us doubt
The mercy of the man who put the pen in our mouth
Word write us well signed, "Forgiveness for sale"
I'm through being full of all the might you want killed
The fiction will see the real
The answer will question still
In your body to blood as your parents once wept
You will follow their lead one by one, every step
Could this be that hard for me?
To configure a new love in hate
To my new entity or banish it home to the grave
I will not save
Your world
Your world
In the end and you
Your world
Your world
Could depend on how coward I should act
(From hell or does come it from within?)
If she won't give me the love I came here for
With pen, I am armed here to react
Hey now, hey now, what is it boy?
All the things that trouble you
So visit your mirror image
Of what might have once behaved
Hey now, hey now, what is it boy?
But I won't rest
Till dead, till dead do you part
This is how I feel my god from what's been dealt
The flies that flutter fight tonight
(From hell or does come it from within?)
Is it love that I'm feeling or is this hate the same?
The emotion's enough to kill the sane
Hey now, hey now, what is it boy?
All the things that trouble you

Of what might have once behaved
Hey now, hey now, what is it boy?
Besides, I only hope you know that I love you
Oh, I hope
Feed, little maggots, off the west side of your sin
Run, little maggot, till they learn of what you did
Feed, little maggots, off the west side of your sin
Run, little maggot, till they learn of what you did
(Feliz sería a qué hora)
(Feliz sería a qué hora)
(Feliz sería a qué hora)
(Feliz sería a qué hora)

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”
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/

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.
"with pen I am armed here to react" hes sayin if Erica leaves him he's gonna screw his "people" He's goin to make trouble.....
