Let me start this from the end to beginning
That way the story has a happy ending.
Some details I can't remember
But I know it all ends in late December.
Heartbroken Bobby picks up his phone;
He dials 911, there's a body on his floor.
Her name's Michelle - Michelle, his belle
Appears to have drawn a knife on herself.
Bobby came in a moment before.
He heard screams and coughing through his front door.
Bobby was out buying flowers for her
Cause he told her she's crazy and he called her a whore.
Michelle was caught cheating with Bobby's friend Dan.
Dan deals drugs so he's got money and plans.
Bobby's been cold so Michelle was upset.
Michelle loved him so much but Bobby couldn't care less.
Bobby's been working a lot more than he should.
Michelle kisses his cheek and says "It's all good."
Bobby kisses her too and says there's no one like her.
Michelle goes to school while Bobby's at work.
They started to date three years before this;
A year and six months they shared an apartment.
Bobby didn't care if he couldn't afford it.
Michelle loved him so much - things were just oh so perfect.

    Wow, just one comment is kind of shocking. The first time I heard this song, the story just hit me so hard. Every time I listen to it it just leaves me completely speechless. This song fucking owns.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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.

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/

Blue
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.
