the next chance that I get,
I'm just going to take it.
take this and everything.
so say goodbye now
no I won't be back around,
and well it's all over now
there in the heart that will never be filled,
and we will wait,
we will wait in that place.
still all I'm looking for is something,
something that I've found.
if I were two-faced, would I be wearing this one?
everything that happened between us was real.
so say goodbye now
no, I won't be back around
across the ocean,
hear her screams.
across the ocean,
hear her screams.

    I could be totally wrong but I was looking on A Skylit Drive's myspace and someone said that Kailey Cost is the girl that is on the album cover of "Wires and The Concept Of Breathing." Is there some sort of connection here?

    Could be some sort of coincidence or the cover girl not be Kailey Cost at all.

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.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
