Stretch Your Legs To Coffin Length

Senses Fail

Today my past has come alive to eat
All of the guts that I use to just keep my feet
Moving left and right as my legs shake like trees
Oh how I curse the heavens for not taking me

Goddam! This whole mess that's me
I don't trust myself (i'm in way too deep)
And every night I erase the day with the strongest drinks they'll give to me

I awake much to my dismay to find that I'm still staring at the same ceiling
I just wish once that I could get this right
And have the angels from the south take me at night

Goddam! This whole mess that's me
I don't trust myself (i'm in way too deep)
And every night I erase the day with the strongest drinks they'll give to me

all I have is meaningless
And all I found is nothingness
In this self-loathing sickness
(2x)

Goddam! This whole mess that's me
I don't trust myself (I'm in way too deep)
And every night I erase the day with the strongest drinks they'll give to me

And all I have is meaningless
And all I found is nothingness

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”

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/
