This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Tip toe through
Tireless peace
Come and go,
Leave your toys and sweets
When, if I had a place
You could visit me
Read fairy tales, play
Hide and go seek
Cliff faces are far too steep
Even though we try to
Smile through our teeth
This surface is not so deep
Although we have our
Secrets to keep
Tightropes are seldom
Too weak
Say I’ve lost my shoes or
I have cold feet
Say stranger how did we meet
And who will hear us
When we start to speak
Our shadows are still
Out on the street
My skin is still as
White as a sheet
Our time is short and fleet
Empty pockets, trick or treat
We all need food to eat
Friend or foe we all go to sleep
Life away from home is
Far from cheap
So look long now before you leap
So soldier please have a seat
You’re only alive while
Your own heart beats
There will always be
Wolves among the sheep
But what’s left of the
Earth will be ploughed
By the meek
Ploughed by the meek
Tireless peace
Come and go,
Leave your toys and sweets
When, if I had a place
You could visit me
Read fairy tales, play
Hide and go seek
Cliff faces are far too steep
Even though we try to
Smile through our teeth
This surface is not so deep
Although we have our
Secrets to keep
Tightropes are seldom
Too weak
Say I’ve lost my shoes or
I have cold feet
Say stranger how did we meet
And who will hear us
When we start to speak
Our shadows are still
Out on the street
My skin is still as
White as a sheet
Our time is short and fleet
Empty pockets, trick or treat
We all need food to eat
Friend or foe we all go to sleep
Life away from home is
Far from cheap
So look long now before you leap
So soldier please have a seat
You’re only alive while
Your own heart beats
There will always be
Wolves among the sheep
But what’s left of the
Earth will be ploughed
By the meek
Ploughed by the meek

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.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.
I love this but not sure what it all means. Maybe depicting life through the eyes of a child and saying we could benefit from hanging onto some of our child like qualities as we grow up.
