In and out on this same path that I followed for years
Can't I look around and ask how could we still end up here
I can't just hold tight
Wait for them to cut us to ribbons
If the sharpest thing where you come is a blade of grass

[Chorus]
Oh take me with you
I don't need shoes to follow
Bare feet running with you
Somewhere the rainbow ends my dear

These injuries
Don't you think we need a new referee
I can't let the ball drop
Boy I need some interference to shut them up

[Chorus]

Oh take me with you
Chase rabbits into their burrow
Bare feet running with you
Today even the rain can cut me up

Tears turn to steal and the wound never heals
In the darkness of November
Well the witch is in the tower
And the snake's in the bower
And the hunt goes on forever
Now the stake is there to burn
My fathers robe is torn between cross and Mother
With the blood on your hands come on
What you doin'?
I am fed up with this questioning.

[Chorus]

Oh take me with you
Chase rabbits into their burrow
Bare feet running with you today today

Oh take me with you
I don't need shoes to follow
Bare feet running with you
Today even the rain
Even the rain
Even the rain
Can cut me up

Take me with you

Take me with you

Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
