Who drains the blood from my head I do, I do
Who comes through with the meds I do, I do
Blackened seeds you're gonna needs these, freeze
The common ancestor
The pressure of industry
Who sleeps in the grease crease wax
And trails of mutual deceit
I heard that growth was gettin weak
Who taps the line ,records my mind,
Twisted agenda, align my spine
Whose got the steeples, the people and scepters,
the rocks on the beaches, the angles the vectors.
Who drains the blood from my head I do, I do
And who accepts me as I am I do, I do

Relationships are a tool that can fuel the facade over my disguise
Fulfill my ego I do what I do with unrelenting compromise
When it's all on the table you know I'll be able
to duck, dodge and run and hide
got a good education in disinformation, adept at constructing lies.

The crack on the staircase, I smoked out of boredom
My kitchen is filled with meat and chloroform
Squirming colors metastasize
Upon viewing the world the fetus eats its own eyes

Acting the fiction and, signing the right away,
Transistor electrocute, wiping the order away.
Awkward offensive hold, perfectly natural
They can't speak bout my brand, because I'm dead and white

Acting the fiction and, signing the right away,
Transistor electrocute, wiping the order away.
Awkward offensive hold, perfectly natural
They can't speak bout my brand, because I'm dead and white

I'm the one I'm the one with my hands around the gun
I am not afraid
I am not afraid

I'm the one I'm the one with my hands around the gun
I am not afraid
I am not afraid

I'm the one I'm the one with my hands around the gun
I am not afraid
I am not afraid

I'm the one I'm the one with my hands around the gun
I am not afraid
I am not afraid

So what I'll die alone all right
So what I'll die alone all right
So what I'll die alone all right
So what I'll die alone all right
So what I'll die alone all right
So what I'll die alone all right

Woke up in a new Bugatti
Then I burned it
Woke up next to Jodi Arias
She my hood bitch
Double it down on all the clowns trying to remake DBM
Man you crazy
We started this sound from Sac Town
Bitch you best be home by 10
Curfew bitch

    I see the song as kind of a dark and disturbing story: you have a main character realizing how messed up his society is (verse 1: "twisted agenda, align my spine!", "the common ancestor, the pressure of industry"). he realizes how the system is shallow and able to manipulated (verse 2: "relationships are a tool..."), then eventually descends into insanity (verse 3 to the part with the crazed laughter?). it appears to end with suicide (last clean vocals: "I'm the one with my hands around the gun. I am not afraid. So what I'll die alone? all right.") I find those last lines particularly disturbing and heartbreaking, as they sound completely comfortable. "I am not afraid. so what? alright." so that's how I see it. a person in a corrupt society, going insane, and ending with suicide. so yeah. now I feel like I need a hug. from a puppy.

    p.s. I'm not sure what to make of the rap, but I don't think it was intended to make any sense in the song anyway.

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,

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

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.
