She's out of school again
But she won't be calling from where she is going
the lines are jammed this time
what could a girl like her need with a slacker like me

If I were a terrorist
I'd bomb you're graduation
If I were a terrorist
there'd be no hesitation

So I'm going on tour with the band
She said "stay for the summer" but she don't understand
That the radio plays what they want you to hear
and I want them to play you your love song this year

If I were a terrorist
I'd bomb you're graduation
If I were a terrorist
there'd be no hesitation
The cameras are flashing
Her black robe is passing
and there I am chilled to my bones
This is the year my girlfirends leaving home

She'll probably end up with a frat guy
She'll probably get pinned while I sleep in the van
I'm sure she'll be home for thanksgiving
I'll send her a picture of me making out with a fan.... And.....


If I were a terrorist
I'd bomb you're graduation
If I were a terrorist
there'd be no hesitation
The cameras are flashing
Her black robe is passing
and there I am chilled to my bones

This is the year my girlfirends leaving
this is the year my girlfriends leaving
this is the year my girlfriends leaving
home

    if you go to sococentral.com you can download the live version of this song, but it isn' very high quality, recording wise. I don't know where else to find it though.

    There are a bunch of Soco songs at audiogalaxy.com. There seems to be some that arent even llisted here but Im willing to bet most of them are under the wrong name.

    The song is from something corporate's first release 'ready break.' Drive Thru records bought the few remaining copies and doesnt plan to release them to the public.

    This song isn't on 'ready break' it is just an unreleased song that you just have to somehow manage to download.

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"

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/

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
