This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Fall into you
Is all I seem to do
When I hit the bottle
'cause I'm afraid to be alone
Tear us in two
Is all it seems to do
As the anger fades
This house is no longer a home
Don't give up on the dream
Don't give up on the wanting
And everything that's true
Don't give up on the dream
Don't give up on the wanting
Because I want you to
Because I want you to
Because I want you to
Because I want you
Because I want you
Stumble into you
Is all I ever do
My memory's hazy
And I'm afraid to be alone
Tear us in two
Is all it's gonna do
As the headache fades
This house is no longer a home
Don't give up on the dream
Don't give up on the wanting
And everything that's true
Don't give up on the dream
Don't give up on the wanting
Because I want you to
Because I want you to
Because I want you to
Because I want you
Because I want you
Because I want you to
Because I want you to
Because I want you
Because I want you
Fall into you
Is all I ever do
When I hit the bottle
'cause I'm afraid to be alone
Tear us in two
Tear us in two
Tear us in two
Because I want you to
Because I want you to
Because I want you
Because I want you
Is all I seem to do
When I hit the bottle
'cause I'm afraid to be alone
Tear us in two
Is all it seems to do
As the anger fades
This house is no longer a home
Don't give up on the dream
Don't give up on the wanting
And everything that's true
Don't give up on the dream
Don't give up on the wanting
Because I want you to
Because I want you to
Because I want you to
Because I want you
Because I want you
Stumble into you
Is all I ever do
My memory's hazy
And I'm afraid to be alone
Tear us in two
Is all it's gonna do
As the headache fades
This house is no longer a home
Don't give up on the dream
Don't give up on the wanting
And everything that's true
Don't give up on the dream
Don't give up on the wanting
Because I want you to
Because I want you to
Because I want you to
Because I want you
Because I want you
Because I want you to
Because I want you to
Because I want you
Because I want you
Fall into you
Is all I ever do
When I hit the bottle
'cause I'm afraid to be alone
Tear us in two
Tear us in two
Tear us in two
Because I want you to
Because I want you to
Because I want you
Because I want you

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.

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.
I'm going to fly in the face of popular opinion and declare that I quite like this song. It might not be the deepest of Placebo's songs, but it's a perfectly enjoyable rock song, and very good for singing along to.
