Verse 1
youu don't know what you've put me through
It's okay, i've forgiven you
But in some way, hope it fucks with you
Hope it fucks with you that i'm okay and I've made it through
But whos to say what your going threw
I'll say no names, though i've wanted to
Isn't it strange how it seems like...

[chorus]
Yesterday, a boy and already afraid
Locked deep inside, my place to hide
To hide from how you made me feel
And i wonder how's your brother
Did he end up fucked up like me?
Lost in himself, crying for help it's safe to say

Verse 2
I learned to live without a pride
Just a shell, with me stuck on the inside
A prison, not a place to hide
Not a place to hide


Yesterday, a boy and already afraid
Locked deep inside, my place to hide
To hide from how you made me feel
And i wonder how's your brother
Did he finally pull through like me?
Finding himself, not needing help
I'd like to say

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,

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
