Hey hey honey throat, got a song for this one
A sad love song kicks my arse every time
Yeah well I know this pretty girl
She works my small town blues full time
Dulce dulce country boy, find a secret place
Where we can walk and talk about stuff
Walk - we should run but such is life
Under this burning sun

In a small town
South of the border
Where men are men
And women need a sense of humour

Mars loves Venus
Venus loves Mars
But where does that leave
All the other planets and stars
Well don't you worry about them
I'm sure it's not that hard to find a solar friend
Dulce dulce country girl
Please don't hide behind your mother's
Inexpensive skirts
Well I'll try so don't be a stranger
Even though daddy tells me
"Stay away from that loser"

And Mars loves Venus
Venus loves Mars

    This song is a reference to Heartbreak Soup by Gilbert Hernandez. Most of the lyrics are taken directly from the comic: "Where men are men and women need a sense of humor," "A sad love song kicks my ass", etc.

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"

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

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.
