Sometimes it is taken for granted
When you receive whats wanted first.
Hello's, goodbyes, I love you's, and goodnights.
It's often wondered why,
Why we live to fall asleep.
And dream to hear these words
With a voice and my thoughts buried in my head so deep.


Was I out of my mind ?
Was everything fine ?
Should I plead forgiveness?
Things go away in time. (In time)


A mason jar of stars,
And point-of-views.
Everytime I share them
I just seem recluse.
Then I realize
It's that what's inside.
What I'm without,
Is not what it's about. (It's about you.)


Sometimes it is taken for granted
When you give whats wanted last.
The hatred, shattered hearts, and all the fear.
Often times go by,
No one wants to take the blame.
Can't even walk through the door
With the noise to my ear, just can't take it anymore.


Were you out of your mind?
Cuz you were in mine.
Shouldn't plead forgiveness,
Things go away in time. (In time)


A mason jar of stars,
And point-of-views.
Everytime I share them
I just seem recluse.
Then I realize
It's that what's inside.
What I'm without,
Is not what it's about. (It's about you.)


It's about you, please tell me what to do.
It's about you, because I don't want to live without.
It's about you, I can't seem to understand.
It's about you, I just seem to lose.
..It's About You..

Led Zeppelin
This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.

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.
