This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Sit there and call me
a liar and a cheat
I just wish you'd pin a rose on me
now you won't even
come out and take a bow
cryin' wont help you now
now your poets
have all put down their pens
the only songs to sing
are those sung again
lonely just doesn't
look good on you somehow
cryin' wont help you now
I just keep on staring
into the black eyes of the truth
we'll have to learn to live apart somehow
cryin' wont help you now
a liar and a cheat
I just wish you'd pin a rose on me
now you won't even
come out and take a bow
cryin' wont help you now
now your poets
have all put down their pens
the only songs to sing
are those sung again
lonely just doesn't
look good on you somehow
cryin' wont help you now
I just keep on staring
into the black eyes of the truth
we'll have to learn to live apart somehow
cryin' wont help you now

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 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,

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Not to be picky... but please: correct title is "Crying Won't Help You Now"
This song is beautiful, the lyrics, the way he sings it.
He sounds like a wise old man.
does anyone know what 'pin a rose on me' means? great song, i think it's about someone who has done him wrong, and is trying to apologise and is crying, and he's saying 'no, stop. crying won't help you now' nbut he does forgive her, because lonely just doesn't look good on her
i agree with jess-ka and then when he says
now your poets have all put down their pens the only songs to sing are those sung again
he's saying she can't think of anything more to say and all of her arguments are redundant
i believe that when he says 'i just wish you'd pin a rose on me' he just wants her to give up and acknowledge that he is right so that she will stop fighting because she's making it worse
