Go run
Run and hide your pretty face
Go far
To find a secret place
Go run

Inside
You are paying such a price
Inside
No one else could run your life
Inside

Think twice
You are running out of time
Inside
Shattered by your own design

You can make believe that somehow
Everything is right
You can make the peices fit but you're
Just jumping with your eyes closed

From the fire
Into the oven
Show the world
How much you suffer

(Chourus)

Because after you come all undone
Set off like a loaded gun
Someone's got to go pick up
All the peices

(/Chourus)

'Cause you
Always run from what you need
It's true
Must be something bout the way
You see yourself
You turn pity into pride
Inside
It must hurt so bad inside

Because every time you try to see
Things clear again
You just run and hide
And make things worse
You close your eyes and jump right

From the fire
Into the oven
Run away
Where you'll discover

(Chourus)

From the fire
Into the oven
Run away
Where you'll discover

(Chourus)

All the peices
Go pick up all the peices
All the peices
All the peices

    The singer is telling someone that they can't run away from their problems, but they way they'e going, they're going to self-destruct, leaving t=someone else to pick up "all the pieces".

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Just A Little Lovin'
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/

Plastic Bag
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.
