Run run run
Would you wear that black liner baby
Run run run
Would you wear that black liner baby
Run run run
Would you wear that black liner baby
Run run run run run run

I read your every entry
I read your secrets and didn't sleep
They say you'll never let me see your face
Wish me luck then laugh at the sad case
My friend is on the phone
Whine and crash
You can stay at my place
And dream sleep maybe
And anime
With perfect lacerations
He don't wanna see
Its becoming a fixation
She never leaves her home
But she's real sweet
Got her own style
Leaves the windows real wide
Crosses her fingers after so many years
Mascara runs through the tracks of her tears

Run run run (but still its nice to wish)
Would you wear that black liner baby
Run run run (hope he understands)
Would you wear that black liner baby
Run run run (this could never be)
Would you wear that black liner baby
Run run run run run run (still he's making plans)

I caught a death when I signed on
I saw your pictures and couldn't eat
I swear that you were sent here just to tease
And you smile back in between Astrix
My heart is on my sleeve when I write you
These ends they lead to dead
Surely they excite you
Or did you know
Is it your typing blindly
Choose a public place
Darling won't you let me pine thee
He leaves cats eyes after palms
So she knows who is speaking

when she's reading it alone
She waited eagerly but will she embrace
In bloodied hands, her new lovers face

Run run run (but still its nice to wish)
Would you wear that black liner baby
Run run run (hope he understands)
Would you wear that black liner baby
Run run run (this could never be)
Would you wear that black liner baby
Run run run run run run (still he's making plans)

    although i agree with all the other stuff said about the song. i also think the repitition of the word 'run' needs to be considered. he's pleading with her to meet with him in a way that suggest perhaps she is entrapped. perhaps not so in a literal manner but rather there is something with holding their meeting. "leaves the windows real wide" perhaps suggests she too wishes to be freed from this obstacle, that she is also searching for the freedom meeting him will provide. further more this is supported by how she "eagerly awaits" obviously this is not a one sided obsession.. yet the "bloodied hands"once again suggests there is some obstacle or dark intrusion to there meeting. and thus this is confirmed by the conclusion in which it is stated "this could never be." without dragging too many conclusions from the song it's overall meaning to me is something of an obsession formed over the internet in this girl who equally feels the same, yet she is trapped inside some mental barrier, perhaps depression that does not allow their love to ever exist. this in a way supports the suicide theory but suggests he is pleading with her to leave or "run" from it to the love he can provide..

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
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,

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.
