Within this dime-a-dozen world
I swear they must've broke the mold
'cause you're the only soul I've met
That I would kill to call my own.
Let it be known, I'm not aggressive, or possessive
All I know is, I would kill to make you mine
& I am usually not this bold
Let it be known....
I never wanted to be anybody's anything....
Anything at all,
I'm rather small, yet all my shortcomings stand tall
I've crawled upon my hands & knees
Out of the fear that I could fall
& through it all it's left me withered,
Feeling bitter bought & sold,
Been told I'm not the nicest person
That you'll ever get to know
Let it be known....
I never wanted to be anybody's anything....
Weaving through this dust
I trust nobody else but us
I must admit It'd take some years
For me to walk without this crutch
So on & such, I'd still be fucked
If I am forced to walk alone
& should I crumble at your feet
I'll hold us both accountable
Let it be known....
I never wanted to be anybody's anything....
I swear they must've broke the mold
'cause you're the only soul I've met
That I would kill to call my own.
Let it be known, I'm not aggressive, or possessive
All I know is, I would kill to make you mine
& I am usually not this bold
Let it be known....
I never wanted to be anybody's anything....
Anything at all,
I'm rather small, yet all my shortcomings stand tall
I've crawled upon my hands & knees
Out of the fear that I could fall
& through it all it's left me withered,
Feeling bitter bought & sold,
Been told I'm not the nicest person
That you'll ever get to know
Let it be known....
I never wanted to be anybody's anything....
Weaving through this dust
I trust nobody else but us
I must admit It'd take some years
For me to walk without this crutch
So on & such, I'd still be fucked
If I am forced to walk alone
& should I crumble at your feet
I'll hold us both accountable
Let it be known....
I never wanted to be anybody's anything....

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.
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,
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
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/
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
