Please accept my humble apology
S should've never happened
O oh my god how could I?
are rotten thing to do
are really didn't mean it
why why'd I have to go and do a thing like that?
I'm sorry, so sorry,
I'm so sorry darling
Sorry
Well?

    Nice? I always thought it was supposed to be sarcastic, showing how empty the word "sorry" is.

    Also: the lyrics are an acrostic poem (the crappiest and least poetic type of poem, hence the most sarcastic type of poetry), which isn't conveyed here. It should read:

    Please accept my humble apology S should've never happened O oh my god how could I? R rotten thing to do R really didn't mean it Y why'd I have to go and do a thing like that? I'm sorry, so sorry, I'm so sorry darling Sorry Well?

    Exactly - the Well? at the end defuses the rest of the track. Which is great!

This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. 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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
