Call me out, and pretend that it's relavant
Truth is I've got wounds
The truth is that I'm suffering
Too many minutes, hours, days by myself
(Yesterday I said all, said all I need to say)
I've been thinking about ending it
Send me on my way back to hell

You know that it feels better when you take it from the ground
"You're better off with a new life underground"
Better when you take it from the ground
Send me on my way back to hell
You know that it feels better when you take it from the ground
I'm better off with a new life underground

I'm leaving all the seasons behind me
(I've been thinking about ending it
I've been thinking about ending it)
And I hope that things get better where you are
I knew you would'nt get very far
So here I sit in a half-lit parking lot
A lonely record and a half ounce of pot
(Smoke to my dome to feel less alone)
And I wish that you had any clue of the hours that I spend in solitude

You're part of the problem, but you'll never know it
You're part of the problem, but you'll never know it
(Sometimes it's best to live in ignorance)
You're part of the problem, but you'll never know it
(Sometimes it's best to live in ignorance)

So here I sit in a half-lit parking lot
A lonely record and a half ounce of pot
(Smoke to my dome to feel less alone
Smoke to my dome to feel less alone)
And I wish that you had any clue of the hours that I spend in solitude
Of the hours that I spend in solitude
In solitude

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

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.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
