This anticipation
Seen in you
As you prepare for new life
Don't forget your war

The cuts on his hands,
Speak a little louder
He takes that side,
And lets you know

And what's in his speech,
Hands cover face
Yeah what's in his,
You cover your
Your face, face, face

Now you're anticipating
What went wrong
In this world we fall back into
Just isn't strong

The cuts on his hands, made way to his face
These spoke all the louder, my silent regret
I show that side, the pride of life
Won't let go

What's in his speech, hands cover face
Yeah what's in his, you cover your

What's in his, hands cover
Yeah what's in his, you cover your

Oh what's in his speech, you cover your face
Yeah what's in his, you cover your
Face
Face
Face
Face
Your face, face, face, face

    I think both ideas are right (the suicide idea and unc1emoe's idea)

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,

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/

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.
