I got a feeling we are gonna win
Our bodies make it perfect
And your eyes can make me swim

Then again everything seems new
I can barely hold my tongue
To say the least I'm into you

And your eyes
Are saying more than we can talk and warmer than our bedroom sport
And your thighs
Are kisses from the outside, girl that's all I need

I'll take you down the other road
To breathe in something more

I find it harder to ignore
The things I want you for

I know you don't want
A love you can't sing
The music was at the start
Do do do do do do do do do do do do

The rhythm was all
I needed to hear
A woman can treat my heart
Do do do do do do do do do do do do

When I press an ear up to your breast
I can hear the rhythm start
It's hard to tell our beats apart

So I hope you're listening right now
'Cause I can barely hold my tongue
The shit we do could warm the sun

And I
Twisted in a melting fall and sleeping with the scratching claws
And your words
Let me know you're feeling me and seeing all the things I see

I'll take you down the other road
To breathe in something more

I find it harder to ignore
The things I want you for

I know you don't want
A love you can't sing
The music was at the start
Do do do do do do do do do do do do

The rhythm was all
I needed to hear
A woman can treat my heart
Do do do do do do do do do do do do

I know you don't want
A love you can't sing
The music was at the start
Do do do do do do do do do do do do

The rhythm was all
I needed to hear
A woman can treat my heart
Do do do do do do do do do do do do

    Am I an idiot for thinking that it's supposed to be

    "I know you don't want A love you can sing"?

    Iunno, it just makes more sense to me. Like, she doesn't want a love that can be put down in words. Whatever.

    So, this song is probably about they're having sex. From the man's point of view.

    It does appear to be about sex, but I think it's more about the emotional aspect behind the sex.

    "I know you don't want A love you can't sing The music was at the start"

    My guess about this part is that the relationship isn't what it used to be, she used to sing to the music early on in the relationship but the music is gone now, hence why the song focuses more on the sex.

    "The rhythm was all I needed to hear A woman can treat my heart"

    To me this implies that the love they used to feel that is gone now was enough to at least partially heal the emotional pain in his heart (my understanding of Chet is that he suffers great emotional pain/depression. I know the feeling.)

    This brings me to these lines:

    "When I press an ear up to your breast I can hear the rhythm start It's hard to tell our beats apart

    So I hope you're listening right now 'Cause I can barely hold my tongue The shit we do could warm the sun"

    He knows she's also in pain (hard to tell our beats apart) and can barely hold his tongue from begging her to give that emotional connection another chance (the shit we do could warm the sun) possible completely heal each other.

    Perhaps I'm over analysing it, maybe I'm projecting my own loneliness on the sad music I listen to, but that's my interpretation.

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.

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”

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."

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

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.
