A wish so sinful
A sin so tasteful
A taste so painfull
A pain so wishfull
A mind confused
A cry in the dark
A soul seeking shelter
In another torn heart
Words of discourage - struggling for hope
A touch of protection - from a promising hand
Between two worlds - caught in decisions
Visions of freedom - remain as illusions
Invisible ties - a spider's kiss
Perfection of lies - drawn toward the abyss
The look of temptation - the fear of sensation
Imploding desire - feeding the fire
We're band - we're branded
Forever we're stranded
That's what it does to you - the taste of taboo
Upside down it turns you - the taste of taboo
A need so joyfull
A yoy so shamefull
A shame so lustfull
The lust so needfull
Forbidden desires - craving for more
Unknown pleasures - willing to sin for
The lack of perfection - so weak the will
The needed injection - the ultimate thrill
The burning flesh - the sensitive skin
The destroying fire - comes from within
Dangerous games - playing russian roulette
With your life at stake - how far can you get
United in hell - paying the price
Living for sins - dying for vice
We're band - we're branded
Forever we're stranded
That's what it does to you - the taste of taboo
Upside down it turns you - the taste of taboo

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
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”

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,

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.
