I've been watching while you sleep, baby.
Hoping I'm the only to frequent your dreams.

I can't take another breath without feeling the regret of my jealously.
Horrified that you might have really lied
Tell me, is it a possibility?
Overwhelming proof. That you're nothing but a fake.

I've seen those hush hush looks you give when you're talking to him.
I've heard your undercover tone of voice.
That you use for all the boys.

I've been nonchalant about the calls at two AM.
But do you really think that I would believe it was just your mother again?

I can't take another breath without feeling the regret of my jealousy.
Horrified that you might have really lied
Tell me, is it a possibility?
Overwhelming proof. That you're nothing but a fake.

I've seen those hush hush looks you give when you're talking to him.
I've heard your undercover tone of voice.
That you use for all the boys.
I've witnessed all your sneaking around.
In every corner of town.
I've listened while you pretended to cry.
Defending your hush hush alibi.

Your heart is charcoal.
Smoking black.
Why don't you just tie the mattress to your back?

I've seen those hush hush looks you give.
Hush hush. Yeah.

I've seen those hush hush looks you give when you're talking to him.
I've heard your undercover tone of voice.
That you use for all the boys.
(I've seen those hush hush looks you give. Hush hush looks you give.)

For all the boys.
(I've seen those hush hush looks you give. Hush hush looks you give.)

    to people saying its a self explanitory song - yes, but youre missing one key point on one key line.

    "i cant take another breath without feeling the REGRETS of my jealousy"

    He's not certain his g/f is cheating on him, but hes got THE biggest feeling that she is. But when he asks her about it, she throws it in his face because i mean what girl wants to be with an overly jealous guy? so she gets pissed and says "THATS SO STUPID! I CANT BELIEVE YOU WOULD THINK THAT!" then he regrets feeling jealous.. the rest of the song pretty much explains what he REALLY wants to say to her, when initially he said "babe, i think i got a problem.. one side of me is telling me youre the best thing that i could ever have, and the other side is telling me you hate me, you hated me from the start, and youre conspiring against me to get me back for something that im not even aware of. doing it all with my friends, dirty crackheads from the club, and LOVING it."

    -i know that from experience with my last g/f, trust me, hes messed up in the head just like me. insecure, depressed and pretty much all around psycho. :)

    p.s. im pretty sure its "hush hush LIPS you give".. you know when someone says "shhh"... thats a hush.. she just gives the lips though so he doesnt hear the "shhh" part.

    love the spill, make me feel like a normal person :)

    shots of love all around

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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
