In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
She calls me up
Says she's comin' over
So I run home
(Oh-oh)
Just to wait around
She calls me names
Then we play some mind games
And I don't know
(Oh-oh)
But I think I like it
Now she's the only one
Who blocks my number
And she's the only one call
(Yeah, oh yeah)
What's wrong with me?
(Yeah, oh yeah)
Why can't I see?
(Yeah, oh yeah)
I'm so addicted to you...and you're such a dick to me
She flies me out
Got a big surprise planned
In Chicago
(Oh-ooh)
That's my kinda town
She says she's been a ho
Had to let me know
On the Jerry Springer Show
(Yeah, oh yeah)
What's wrong with me?
(Yeah, oh yeah)
Why can't I see?
(Yeah, oh yeah)
I'm so addicted to you...and you're such a dick to me
I wrap myself
Around her little finger
And she gives me the middle one
(Yeah, oh yeah)
What's wrong with me?
(Yeah, oh yeah)
Why can't I see?
(Yeah, oh yeah)
I'm so addicted to you...and you're such a dick to me
She calls and I come runnin' back
I call, she never calls me back
What's wrong with me
I'm so addicted to you...and you're such a dick to me
Says she's comin' over
So I run home
(Oh-oh)
Just to wait around
She calls me names
Then we play some mind games
And I don't know
(Oh-oh)
But I think I like it
Now she's the only one
Who blocks my number
And she's the only one call
(Yeah, oh yeah)
What's wrong with me?
(Yeah, oh yeah)
Why can't I see?
(Yeah, oh yeah)
I'm so addicted to you...and you're such a dick to me
She flies me out
Got a big surprise planned
In Chicago
(Oh-ooh)
That's my kinda town
She says she's been a ho
Had to let me know
On the Jerry Springer Show
(Yeah, oh yeah)
What's wrong with me?
(Yeah, oh yeah)
Why can't I see?
(Yeah, oh yeah)
I'm so addicted to you...and you're such a dick to me
I wrap myself
Around her little finger
And she gives me the middle one
(Yeah, oh yeah)
What's wrong with me?
(Yeah, oh yeah)
Why can't I see?
(Yeah, oh yeah)
I'm so addicted to you...and you're such a dick to me
She calls and I come runnin' back
I call, she never calls me back
What's wrong with me
I'm so addicted to you...and you're such a dick to me

I Can't Go To Sleep

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
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
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.
its my second favorite song besides four.......i really no what hes talkin bout......cept my girlfrind bein a ho but ya know............. yay lits rocks!!
