its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
Yeah, I heard about some guy that you beat pretty bad and got in the papers
Sure, you own a cool bar and I hear you get far with every waitress
Yeah, I saw you on the poster your song is the bomb and you're outrageous
Sure, I see you're livin' large with your crib and your cars
And that's just great but
Let me tell you how it be
You won't get with this you see
'Cause you can't handle me
Yeah, you make your big move and I see you're not used to being rejected
Sure, you makin' that call to your guy and I'm sure you're well connected
Yeah, judging from that line you just passed you are well known and respected
Sure, would me and my girls come participate in something you directed
Let me tell you how it be
You won't get with this you see
'Cause you can't handle me
It's a simple fact
That you can't seem to handle me
No matter how you act with them
You can't handle me
You gotta make me feel you got my back
But you're a selfish narcissistic psycho freaking boot-licking Nazi creep
And you can't handle me
Yeah, I think you're kinda cute when you try and act like you ain't lookin'
Sure, I think you're kinda fly and your ride sure is off the hookin'
Yeah, bet you could take my mind off things for some time and take me shoppin'
Sure, you writin' those rhymes and the acts you produce are really kickin'
But
Let me tell you how it be
You won't get with this you see

The way this song speaks to me🥺🥺when I sing it I feel like I relate
Fortnight
Taylor Swift

The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
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 think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
This song has a good beat, she keeps her own style- which rocks! But I personally think, she should have left the 'Nazi' bit out.
@Tulips Umm, why? For starters, it's not like it's particularly offensive, but second, the Neo Nazi movement is pretty big in Europe, so she could quite well have been referring to an actual Nazi.
