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.
So quiet
Another wasted night,
The television steals the conversation.
Exhale,
Another wasted breath,
Again it goes unnoticed.
Please tell me you're just feeling tired,
Cause if it's more than that I feel that I might break.
Out of touch; out of time.
Please send me anything but signals that are mixed,
'Cause I can't read your rolling eyes.
Out of touch; are we out of time?
Close lipped,
Another goodnight kiss
Is robbed of all it's passion.
Your grip
Another time, is slack.
It leaves me feeling empty.
Please tell me you're just feeling tired,
'Cause if it's more than that I feel that I might break.
Out of touch; out of time.
Please send me anything but signals that are mixed,
'Cause I can't read your rolling eyes.
Out of touch; are we out of time?
I'll wait until tomorrow;
Maybe you'll feel better then.
Maybe we'll be better then.
So what's another day,
When I can't bear these nights of thoughts
Of going on without you?
This mood of yours is temporary;
It seems worth the wait
To see your smile again.
Out of the corner of my eye
Won't be the only way you're looking at me then.
So quiet
Another wasted night,
The television steals the conversation.
Exhale,
Another wasted breath,
Again it goes unnoticed.
Another wasted night,
The television steals the conversation.
Exhale,
Another wasted breath,
Again it goes unnoticed.
Please tell me you're just feeling tired,
Cause if it's more than that I feel that I might break.
Out of touch; out of time.
Please send me anything but signals that are mixed,
'Cause I can't read your rolling eyes.
Out of touch; are we out of time?
Close lipped,
Another goodnight kiss
Is robbed of all it's passion.
Your grip
Another time, is slack.
It leaves me feeling empty.
Please tell me you're just feeling tired,
'Cause if it's more than that I feel that I might break.
Out of touch; out of time.
Please send me anything but signals that are mixed,
'Cause I can't read your rolling eyes.
Out of touch; are we out of time?
I'll wait until tomorrow;
Maybe you'll feel better then.
Maybe we'll be better then.
So what's another day,
When I can't bear these nights of thoughts
Of going on without you?
This mood of yours is temporary;
It seems worth the wait
To see your smile again.
Out of the corner of my eye
Won't be the only way you're looking at me then.
So quiet
Another wasted night,
The television steals the conversation.
Exhale,
Another wasted breath,
Again it goes unnoticed.

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.

I got this song from my friend who was going through a relationship that this song could be applied to. I completely agree with HellionChild though, who can't relate to this? But that's like with alot of songs if not all. There's always that one lyric that you relate to...
