All: Well it's true that we love one another

Holly: I love Jack White like a little brother

Jack: Well Holly I love you too but there's
Just so much that I don't know about you

Holly: Jack give me some money to pay my bills

Jack: All the dough I give you Holly
You been using on pain pills

Holly: Jack will you call me if you're able?

Jack: I got your phone number written
In the back of my bible

Holly: Jack I think your pulling my leg
And I think maybe I better ask Meg
Meg do you think Jack really loves me?

Meg: You know, I don't care because
Jack really bugs me
Why don't you ask him now?

Holly: Well I would but Meg
I really just don't know how

Meg: Just say 'Jack , do you adore me?'

Jack: Well I would Holly but love really bores me

All: Then i guess we should just be friends

Jack: I'm just kidding Holly
You know that I'll love you 'til the end

All: Well it's true that we love one another

Holly: I love Jack White like a little brother

Jack: Well Holly I love you too but there's
Just so much that I don't know about you
Holly give me some of your English lovin'

Holly: If I did that Jack I'd have one in the oven
Why don't you go off and love yourself

Jack: If I did that Holly there won't be anything
Left for anybody else

Holly: Jack it's too bad about the way you look

Jack: You know I gave that horse a carrot
So he'd break your foot

Meg: Will the two of you cut it out
And tell 'em what it's really all about

All: Well it's true that we love one another

Holly: I love Jack White like a little brother

Jack: Well Holly I love you too but there's
Just so much that I don't know about you

Techno Ted
Audioslave
Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
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.

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”
