Love Me Girl - Yeasayer

(Nothing is wrong, what are you scared of?)
(Nothing is wrong, what are you scared of?)
What is she covering up?
What is she lying about?
Uh-oh she's hesitating
And she's using slow words, I know
But she's moving fast
Why is this happening now?
Why does this happen to me
All the time?
Don't give up on me
And I won't give up on you
Squeeze me 'til I can't breathe
And let's just lie here in oblivion
Cause neither one of us
Can know how long this love will last
So stay up in bed with me
Stay up and play with me
All day and night
Don't give up on me
And I won't give up on you
I cannot wait for the baby
Love me, girl
(Nothing is wrong, what are you scared of?)
(Nothing is wrong, what are you scared of?)
Nothing is wrong, what are you scared of?
(Nothing is wrong, what are you scared of?)
Love me, love me, love me (repeated)
(Nothing is wrong, what are you scared of?)
Squeeze me 'til I can't breathe
And let's just lie here in oblivion
Cause neither one of us
Can know how long this love will last
So stay up in bed with me
Stay up and play with me
All day long
Don't give up on me
And I won't give up on you
I cannot wait for the baby
Love me, girl
Love me, girl

You don't move me anymore
I listened to this a lot in the past two months. It seemed to fit perfectly with how I was feeling. I'm still listening to it although I'm completely over that whole situation. So, in summation, I'm a happy camper and here is a song I listened to when I was upset. Part of the backlog, so to speak.
O.N.E. - Yeasayer
One's not enough
I won't stop 'til I've given you up
Clear-eyed as I am, it's hard having fun
It's much easier said than it's done
Hold me like before
Hold me like you used to
Control me like you used to
No
You don't move me anymore
And I'm glad that you don't
'cause I can't have you anymore
But I thought you should know
You don't move me anymore
And I'm glad that you don't
Because I can't take it anymore
Oh
The room's still now when I'm lying
'cause the well of the night has gone dry
When they ask to behave, I pay them no mind
Now I doubt if I'd have been so kind
Hold me like before
Hold me like you used to
Control me like you used to
No
You don't move me anymore
And I'm glad that you don't
'cause I can't have you anymore
But I thought you should know
You don't move me anymore
And I'm glad that you don't
Because I can't take it anymore
More
Hold me like before
Hold me like you used to
Hold me like before
Hold me like you used to
Hold me like before
Hold me like you used to
Control me like you used to
Hold me like before
Hold me like you used to
Control me like you used to
No
You don't move me anymore
And I'm glad that you don't
'cause I can't have you anymore
But I thought you should know
You don't move me anymore
And I'm glad that you don't
Because I can't take it anymore
But I found you should know
It feels like being tranquilized
I know the separation kills us so
But I won't stop falling like raindrops
Because I like it when you lose control

(n)ever look ahead
2080 - Yeasayer
I can't sleep when I think about the times we're living in
I can't sleep when I think about the future I was born into
Outsiders dressed up like Sunday morning
With no Berlin wall what the hell you gonna do
It's a new year, I'm glad to be here
It's a fresh spring, so let's sing
In 2080 I'll surely be dead
So don't look ahead, ever look ahead
It's a new year, I'm glad to be here
It's a fresh spring, so let's sing
And the moon shines bright on the water tonight
So we won't drown in the summer sound
If you find me I'll be sitting by the water fountain
Picket signs, letdowns, meltdown on Monday morning
But it's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright
It's alright
Cause in no time, they'll be gone, I guess I'll still be standing here
It's a new year, I'm glad to be here
It's a fresh spring, so let's sing
In 2080 I'll surely be dead
So don't look ahead, never look ahead
It's a new year, I'm glad to be here
It's a fresh spring, so let's sing
And the moon shines bright on the water tonight
So we won't drown in the summer sound
Yeah, yeah, we can all grab at the chance to be handsome farmers
Yeah you can have twenty-one sons and be blood when they marry my daughters
And the pain that we left at the station will stay in a jar behind us
We can pickle the pain into blue ribbon winners at county contests
It's a new year, I'm glad to be here
It's a fresh spring, so let's sing
In 2080 I'll surely be dead
So don't look ahead, never look ahead
It's a new year, I'm glad to be here
It's a fresh spring, so let's sing
And the moon shines bright on the water tonight
So we won't drown in the summer sound
Yeah, yeah, we can all grab at the chance to be handsome farmers
Yeah you can have twenty-one sons and be blood when they marry my daughters
And the pain that we left at the station will stay in a jar behind us
We can pickle the pain into blue ribbon winners at county contests
