"Tell me have you seen a sunset,
Turn into a sunrise,
Kiss right through the night?
'Cause we should try that some time
Hold you 'til the morning."
What Am I? ( By Why Don't We?)

Where The Lost Ones Go (I Will Be With You)
Leave and let me go
You’re not meant for me, i know
Carry on, carry on, and i’ll stay strong
Leave and let me go
I will think of you, i know
But carry on, carry on, and i’ll stay strong
Someone else will keep you warm, from now on
Someone else will keep you safe from the storm
But i’ll be with you wherever you go
So you will never be alone
I’m going where the wind blows
Going where the lost ones go
I will be with you
I’m losing the love i found
Crying without a sound
Where have you gone?
I will be with you
You were my fool for love
Sent me from high above
You were the one
I will be with you
I’m going where the wind blows
Going where the lost ones go
Leave and let me go
Don’t look back just let me know
You’ll carry on, carry on, you must stay strong
Nothing ever looks the same in the light
Nothing ever seems to quite turn out right
But when you realize that you have been loved
You will never be alone
I’m going where the wind blows
Going where the lost ones go
I will be with you
I’m losing the love i found
Crying without a sound
Where have you gone?
I will be with you
You were my fool for love
Sent me from high above
You were the one
I will be with you
I’m going where the wind blows
Going where the lost ones go
Leave and let me go
Baby i can’t come along
So carry on, carry on, you must stay strong

Overall Meaning
The lyrics to Sissel's song There The Lost Ones Go illustrate the struggle of a protagonist who is trying to move on from the person they love. The repeated demand to "leave and let me go," emphasizes the desire for separation from the loved one, as the singer recognizes that they are not meant to be together. The line "Someone else will keep you warm, from now on / Someone else will keep you safe from the storm," reveals that the singer understands their ex-lover will find someone else to fulfill their needs. Despite the painful separation, the singer pledges to be with their ex wherever they go. They recognize that they may not be with them physically, but they will always be there in spirit. The chorus, "I'm going where the wind blows / Going where the lost ones go" denotes the desire for the singer to move on and start anew. However, they will always carry the irrevocable memories of their time together. The song's theme of separation and letting go has universal appeal, and its lyrics' emotive style reflects this. Sissel's soaring vocals bring to life the emotions of the heartbroken protagonist, and the song has become a popular choice for mournful moments, such as funerals. / source

YES! I didn’t specify which Jack Antonoff song, but I did say any of them, so I’m giving myself the win.

One of my favourite cynical yuletide tunes!
LYRICS:
[Verse 1]
My mother said, "I'm a survivor
I pull together Christmas every year"
"Something has to last," she said
"Once a year let's have the past"
And then one year to reach up high
To hang an angel from the tree
Became a painful thing
"Besides, she's lost her wing," my mother said
[Chorus]
"Things fall apart but they never leave my heart"
Good morning, good night
It's Christmas
"Things fall apart but they never leave my heart"
[Verse 2]
My boyfriend said, "It's really sweet the way you go for Christmas cheer"
I said, "We can't afford the tree"
He said, "Love is free"
So we trimmed the cactus with my earrings that we'd meant to pawn
There wasn't any snow
But there was rain
He licked me like a candy cane
And then one day he said, "I can't stand in your way, it's wrong"
"Way of what?" I asked, but he was gone
[Chorus]
"Things fall apart but they never leave my heart"
Good morning, good night
It's Christmas
"Things fall apart but they never leave my heart"
[Verse 3]
The party was a huge success
"But where should we go next?" they said
They killed a tree of 97 years
And smothered it in lights and silver tears
They all got wrecked
They laughed too loud
I started to feel queasy in the crowd
I caught a cab back to my flat
And wept a bit
And fed the cat
[Chorus]
"Things fall apart but they never leave my heart"
Good morning, good night
It's Christmas
"Things fall apart but they never leave my heart"
It's Christmas
