Whatever

Imogen Heap

Whatever...

Oh you
You come to me
Oh, so perfectly, yeah
So perfectly made

And you're all that you are
And you're all that you said
You're so exquisitely bred
Oh babe, what more can I say?
Oh, yeah yeah

So yeah, hey yeah
I guess it's alright, yeah
Yeah, no, no
I guess it's alright, whatever
Yeah, no, no
I guess it's alright, yeah
So hey, yeah
I guess it's alright

And I
I hate ya for
For letting me fall for you
Just like a fool

And now I'm all psyching out, ah yeah
Mmm, 'cause all we're about
Is this ugly phone
And it's all I have to look forward to
Oh, yeah yeah

So yeah, hey yeah
I guess it's alright, yeah
Yeah, no, no
I guess it's alright, whatever
Yeah, no, no
I guess it's alright, yeah
So hey, yeah
I guess it's alright

Dreaming
Of you lying in my bed
Just like how we were just days before
Oh, would you just leave me
Just get out of my head
'Cause I cant take this torture any more
No, no
Anymore
Anymore

You're so far away, yeah
Why are you so far away, yeah
You're so far away, yeah
Why are you so far away from me?

So yeah, hey yeah
I guess it's alright, yeah
Yeah, no, no
I guess it's alright, whatever
Yeah, no, no
I guess it's alright, yeah
So, I guess it's alright, whatever
Yeah, I guess it's alright
So, I guess it's alright, whatever
Yeah, I guess it's alright
No, I guess it's alright, whatever

    I think this song is about a woman who broke up with a guy, and after trying to get over him, she realized she's fed up with trying and wants him back.

    But she still hates him for what he did. But she can't help wanting him. She sounds pissed about it too.

    I think this song is about her falling in love with someone who she didnt really want to. Like a fling or something.

    She doesnt want him to know about it so she's being really cool about it' "I guess it alright, whatever"

    She hates him for being so charming and shes now really confused about their relationship.

    All she looks forward to is seeing him and all she thinks about is him.

    Dreaming, of you lyin in my bed Just like how we were just days before Oh just leave me just get out of my head 'Cause i cant take this torture any more

    I think they're 'fuck buddies' but now shes in love with him etc...

    i havent actually heard this song lool but looking at the lyrics, i think that this song is about a long distance relationship, and the singer loves the other person but it hurts alot to be away from them all the time, so she wants to spare herself the hurt and not be in love with him but its not that simple cause he's always in her head, and she resents it because it hurts.

    Is it just me or does this song sound like "Lithium Flower" from Ghost In The Shell...XD Sorry it's bugging me

    I think this song is about a girl who doesn't want to care about a guy but she can't help but think about him and she's trying to pretend she doesn't care.

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."

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
