You live in Phnom Penh
You live in New York City
But I think about you so so so
So much I forget to eat

It's 4 am I check my email
I'm too geared up to fall asleep
So I write you back and count the days
Until we'll be together

The first thing that I do
Is throw my arms around you
And never let go
And never let go

I call you from my hotel room
I'm sitting on the hallway floor
I know that we are so so so
So tired my phone card just expired

You only call me when you're drunk
I can tell it by your voice
It's the only time that you
Open up to me and tell me that you love me

The first thing that I do
Is throw my arms around you
And never let go
And never let go

I'm thirty-thousand feet high
Flying through the dead of night
I took an Ambien and you came to visit me
In my dreams

You were bathed in blue light
Floating right in front of me
Your face was so so so
So bright I had to close my eyes to see

The first thing that I do
Is throw my arms around you
And never let go
And never let go

Never let go, oh
Never let go, oh
Never let go, oh, oh
Never let go, oh, oh
Never let go, oh, oh

    It sounds like "I took an MBM" to me, which brings to mind MBMA - ecstasy. Damned shame, as I really like this song otherwise. Drugs are pathetic. Especially when God gave us whiskey haha. I like DF but I do like the original pre-genocide Cambodian recordings, such as are on the City of God soundtrack. Politics = trash talk. Peace.

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"

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
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.

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/

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
