She don't have a name
She don't have a face
Never had much of anything
Yes I see you and I fall from grace
She don't have the line
She don't have the time
Never had much of anything
Yes I see you
I point too
You waste me
You want me oh my my
Still she don't have a name
She don't have a face
Never had much of anything
Yes I see you and I fall from grace
She don't have the line
She don't have the time
Never had much of anything
Yes I see you
You point too
You waste me
You want me oh my, my
And I'm losing you again now
No, no, no, no
Feel you slip right down now something's on my mind
I can't find the time
Someone's got arrow
If there's one thing you feel
I should tell you I move it along
Arrow
Yeah I'm losing you again now
No, no, no, no
Feel you slip right down now
Something's on my mind
I can't find the time
Someone's got arrow
Someone's got arrow
Something's on my mind
I want to tell you but that
I can't find the time
I want to feel it
Someone's got arrow
Someone's got arrow

    How come no one has commented this song? It's catchy!

    Like many songs, I think this song can have many meanings.

    Ah.. nice lyrics. Seems like someone has feelings for someone else but he's waiting for the right time..

    Sounds like there's a person who wants to confront someone else, but can't figure out the right way to do it. It would obviously be much easier for Cupid to hit her with an arrow and help this guy out.

    I feel like he's singing from the perspective of someone that wants to engage with a girl not up to his status in society and on her own path in life that doesn't line up with his. And he's got his 'arrow' to follow, guiding him in his career/life. He knows he wants to tell her how he feels, but is acknowledging that she 'don't have the line' (her arrow pointed toward him) and 'she don't have the time' (busy on her own path), but 'someone [else] got arrow' (their arrow pointing at her).

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

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.
