Between The Trees

Horse the Band

I think I seem to be a mystery
even spied by the given eye
I'm telling tales of memories
songs of birds softly outlined

I feel strange
do you know me
I recognize those eyes

There's something of me out there
in between the trees
but I don't believe
I can give the thought the time
I don't believe
I can give the thought the time

PUZZLED
WITH
NO PEACE

I feel strange
do you know me
I recognize those eyes

something's coming over me
like I've lost my mind
but the world is open wide

Doctor, Doctor
What's my status
will I stand or will I fall?

I can stand here blankly,
I can hold my breath,
I can even not exist at all

Doctor, Doctor
Can you read me?
You've said the signs and I've got them all

Radio, Radio
can you hear my swan song?
Radio, Radio
can you hear my swan song?

I'm at it again
I'm at it again


I took my feet off
I took my legs off

I ripped my guts out
I peeled my skin off

I ripped my throat out
I pulled my eyes out

I ripped my heart out
I took my face off

    Captures the feeling of being lost and annoyed with yourself for not being able to do the things to help yourself be happy. It's a frantic feeling, searching for something, when you know (or don't know) that it's really within yourself to be content. "I've lost my mind, but the world is wide" the world is still immensely vast and time is infinite, but you're all tripped up inside your own head. And then you feel like the last verse of the song and you give up.

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/

Blue
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.

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.
