This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Slow decay
though it’s nothing that I’d ever do
no matter how long you’re dreaming too long
born and raised with nobody left to look up to
no matter how long you sleep it’s too long
it sounds horrible but it’s nothing that you wouldn’t do
you're just a lousy waste there I said it
I said it
she’s down on the corner with her headphones on
hearing her song
it sounds tolerable but it’s nothing you should get used to
Tell me what I want to hear
I bet that kid could teach you something
I think the kid could teach you something
I bet you think the more you speak the less you'll find your actions turn to words
the more you sleep the less you'll find relax a dirty word
I bite my hands
I bite my hands
I bite right off my hands
I bite my hands
just to free myself and free every one of us
we come from town
we drink when we’re down
you go around and around
your turn is up just give it a go
I clench my teath ignore my heart but
the tough get going when the rough shit starts
a parent's plans replaced my hands
so now you don’t chose you only make demands
it’s the same shit each day it’s your father and his pocket of lies
it’s just this town
oh this town
and some thank you notes we’d like you to sign
though it’s nothing that I’d ever do
no matter how long you’re dreaming too long
born and raised with nobody left to look up to
no matter how long you sleep it’s too long
it sounds horrible but it’s nothing that you wouldn’t do
you're just a lousy waste there I said it
I said it
she’s down on the corner with her headphones on
hearing her song
it sounds tolerable but it’s nothing you should get used to
Tell me what I want to hear
I bet that kid could teach you something
I think the kid could teach you something
I bet you think the more you speak the less you'll find your actions turn to words
the more you sleep the less you'll find relax a dirty word
I bite my hands
I bite my hands
I bite right off my hands
I bite my hands
just to free myself and free every one of us
we come from town
we drink when we’re down
you go around and around
your turn is up just give it a go
I clench my teath ignore my heart but
the tough get going when the rough shit starts
a parent's plans replaced my hands
so now you don’t chose you only make demands
it’s the same shit each day it’s your father and his pocket of lies
it’s just this town
oh this town
and some thank you notes we’d like you to sign

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

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.
they sure talk about hands a lot on that album
