Take all your medicine
It's gonna make you well
You'll have to run till it's over
I'm sure you'll be able to tell
You'll know it's over
For the rest of your life
You're gonna be high
Come home
It's something less than a holiday
When you come home
It's something less than a holiday
They'll be sneaking up behind you again
Talk to the doctor
He said you're well for home
Take all your medicine
Be sure you're never alone
You'll know it's over
For the rest of your life
You're gonna be high

Come home
It's something less than a holiday
When you come home
It's something less than a holiday
They'll be sneaking up behind you again

Come home
It's something less than a holiday
When you come home
It's something less than a holiday
When you come home
It's something less than a holiday
When you come home
It's something less than a holiday
When you come home
It's something less than a holiday
When you

    Hmmm no comments yet. Well I'm kinda stumped on this song. I don't know, I geuss its about coming off a high from a drug. However, there's a line saying "For the rest of your life your gonna be high" so I have no idea.

    lol if you wanted to look at a weird angle its about dying and going to heaven.... the lines come home, home can mean heaven and the part about being high well we all know heaven is up in the sky lol and the part about the medicine and doctor is talking about keeping whom ever it might be about alive while there is this calling to come home to heaven

    I have no idea what they intended with this song, but for me it brings to mind a struggle with addiction, with coming home symbolizing a relapse, a return to a destructive lifestyle.

    someone has been diagnosed with a terminal illness and there's nothing more the hospital can do so the patient is sent home with enough medicine to ease the suffering

    I really like this tune. My thought on it was that it was about mental illness and all the drugs they can put you on so you're "better." The paranoia of "they'll be sneaking up behind you again." They tend to medicate you for life with some of that stuff, so "for the rest of your life you're gonna be high." To me "it's something less than a holiday" fits right in... never easy dealing with that stuff.

Techno Ted
Audioslave
Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"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.

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"
