Could you tell me the next time that you're choking?
I'll run right over to shove some dirt right down your throat
It's nothing I have against you
You're just a creep and you can't remember the last five years

What's a bond if it dissolves in water?
I took a piss that lasted longer than you and your manipulations
Called my mom last night
She said, "Sweetie, you don't need someone
who's more fleeting than fall"

Don't you love those leaves?
Don't you wish the orange stayed forever?
And crickets sang in the night
All through winter

And I thought, slow down
Think of all the times this jerk has fucked you up and left you down
And hey, I choose my company by the beating of their hearts
Not the swelling of their heads, no

Don't you love those leaves?
Don't you wish the orange stayed forever?
And crickets sang in the night
All through winter

Besides, I'd rather forget the days we spent than
Try to stay afloat in shallow water

I'd rather forget the days we spent
Than try to stay afloat in shallow water

Rather forget
The days we spent
Than try to stay afloat in

Rather forget
The days we spent
Than try to stay afloat in shallow water

Rather forget
The days we spent
Than try to stay afloat in

Rather forget
The days we spent
Than try to stay

    they way he paints a picture just by singing is awesome. "don't you love those leave? don't you wish the orange stayed for ever?" don't you just wish people would be what you want them to be? i could disect every line of that song, but what i mean to say is this: anyone who can put talking to thier mom on the phone into a song, and still come out cool and getting the amount of chicks i'm SURE he gets, is some sort of god and should be worshiped.

    PS-pop disaster in NYC was awesome.

Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
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/
