All this walking around kills the time but it still helps me think
About everything, used to be you and me
As I walk and I pace it's familiar faces and drinks
They don't drown anything, they don't dull out the sting

'Cause maybe I'd be better off alone and letting go

So baby come back cause I'm falling apart
I'm reaching for words that I meant from the start
With everything said and every wound open
Everything bled and every heart hoping that you'd come back
And we all sing along to words that we knew never fit with the song
Over chords that come unclothed
So we'll sing with our eyes closed
Until you maybe come back

I've had plenty of hours alone with just me and my room
But what keeps peeking through is the pictures of you
And if anyone asks you can tell them I'm doing okay
It's just day after day, I'm still seeing your face

'Cause maybe I'm just better off alone

So baby come back cause I'm falling apart
I'm reaching for words that I meant from the start
With everything said and every wound open
Everything bled and every heart hoping that you'd come back
And we all sing along to words that we knew never fit with the song
Over chords that come unclothed
So we'll sing with our eyes closed
Until you maybe come back

So here I am alone searching for a cover blown
How am I to hide when I've got so much to atone for?
Tell me that you're never gonna throw it away
And the time we have together wasn't something you're afraid of
'Cause we're so much bigger than the moment
Please take my heart as your condolence

So baby come back cause I'm falling apart
I'm reaching for words that I meant from the start
With everything said and every wound open
Everything bled and every heart hoping that you'd come back
And we all sing along to words that we knew never fit with the song
Over chords that come unclothed
So we'll sing with our eyes closed
Until you maybe come back

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

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.
