It's to much to believe.
Only speaks in similes.
But, in the end we'll come to see it's obsolete.

Puts the practice into trials.
Makes endeavors all worthwhile.
But, whether winnings glorified, idecide.

Idecide, Idecide, Idecide

We're making friends with martyrs, who make their enemies, with themselves.

They'll take what they need and then give you back some;
Just enough to get by,
Enough sting to be stung,
Enough poison to choke,
Enough rope to be hung.

Have mercy on me for I'll not give up;
Eternally down on my luck.
Words wear no disguise when idecide.

Idecide, Idecide

We're aching from the pressure,
All angles and all asides.
The waitings not the anguish,
Its the ride.

Let me know if you don't think you'll make the team.
So it goes making love is never what it seems.

    meaning : "making love is never what it seems!" "we're aching from the pressure" = pressure of wanting to, knowing you shouldn't? "all angles and asides" = idk "the waitings not the anguish, its the ride" = the part leading up to the sex is the good part, don't forget it!

    I love this song! I thought it was about choosing to make things happen, instead of letting things happen. Except the YouTube video left me with the exact opposite impression where higher powers create our fate, and all we can do is try to enjoy whatever happens.

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"

Cajun Girl
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”

Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
