"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.
You love this ass
You love this ass
You love this ass
You wanna bite it
You give me dirty looks because I been what you want
Do what you don't
Anything goes
He put the meat over the bone
Set me on his throne
Bitch he made me moan!
And left you home alone
Your girlfriend told me he'd been callin' out my name
And i told her "Sorry baby, but i'm not the one to blame,
you better watch your man 'cause he's spendin' all your cash,
and you know what's even worse,
it's 'cause he loves this ass"
You love this ass
You love this ass
Your mama and your daddy know you love this ass
You love this ass, why not shake it?
You love this ass, why not make it?
Take her to dinner, but come to me for desert
Cause i'm a flirt and lift my skirt, and i don't care if it hurts
I got a man at home but, he ain't here tonight
Do you mind if I were yours?
You two just don't look right.
You think you're set 'cause you get lotsa hoes,
You're skinny and pretty and ...?
And I ain't comin' around just to see them get pissed
'Cause they know when they're hoes, they're about to get jizzed
You love this ass
You love this ass
Tell all those other bitches they can kiss my ass
You love this ass
So don't hide it
You love this ass
You act like you don't want it 'cause i'm with too many guys, but in the middle of the night, you called me twenty five times!
You call me a whore, but you always come back for more
Your other hoochie mamas aren't wet like me
Won't make you sweat like me
They wanna get with me
'Cause i got more back than them, so it makes alot of sack
They all hate me 'cause he loves it
Always miss it 'cause he does it
And whenever he's with you
He wishes that you was me
You love this ass
You love this ass
You buy me lots of stuff because you love this ass
You love this ass, so just take it
You love this ass, want me to make it?
You know those other girls just can't grind like me,
Make you blind like me,
There's no kind like me.
Maybe i'm a ho,
But that's why I know
How to work it, jerk it, make you go bizerk it,
Ride it, slide it, just the way you like it,
Kiss it, fist it, ?
Tease you, please you, till i'm underneath you
You love this ass
You love this ass
You're always at my house because you love this ass
You love this ass, in the jacuzzi
You love this ass, more than her pussy
Girl i must confess i wore that dress so he would cum on my breasts
I wore them ? to make you bite,
Whether it's wrong or it's right
And i don't care if what i wear makes everyone stare
'Cause he loves my behind,
Your man is mine!
You love this ass
You love this ass
I like doing it with you because you love this ass
You love this ass, so don't fight it
You love this ass, i'll copyright it
You love this ass
You love this ass
You wanna bite it?
You love this ass
You know you love this ass
You love this ass
You love this ass
You wanna bite it
You give me dirty looks because I been what you want
Do what you don't
Anything goes

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
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"

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
