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.
It's all gonna break
When I was a kid, you fucked me in the ass
But I took my pen to paper and I passed
You know I love the shit, 'cause the shit it tastes so good
I got pastures waiting in the woods
'Cause it's all gonna break
It's all gonna break
Treat me like a sign, sounds like so, oh well
I know times like these are the hell
And when you do the tricks, the tricks look so good
I got buried rumors waiting in the woods
And they try to climb awake
And call me over
Skies they rape and skies are sober
Minds they fake and minds rolled over
It's good, it's good, it's good
I know that you're dying
I know that it's true
I know there's seven thousand things you rather be and rather do
And I know that you fuck what you love
And you love what you fuck
I'll keep them out girl, I'll keep it true
I'll do anything inside the skin of you
'Cause I know that the sound of your heart
Is a god I can trust
Like a man
Not a boy
I don't love, I just fight with the violence in ourselves
It's all gonna break
And you all want the lovely music to save your lives
And you all want the lovely music to save your lives
Keep it coming
There is no lie to save your life
Keep it coming
This is the lie to save your life
Why are you always fucking ghosts?
Why are you always fucking ghosts?
Why?
It's been such a long
Life that we trust
Your heart is a whore
And love is just lust
You want what you can't
And you can't cause of fear
We've got to get
Out of here
Why are you always?
Its been and it settles down and fights to love
Its all gonna break
When I was a kid, you fucked me in the ass
But I took my pen to paper and I passed
You know I love the shit, 'cause the shit it tastes so good
I got pastures waiting in the woods
'Cause it's all gonna break
It's all gonna break
Treat me like a sign, sounds like so, oh well
I know times like these are the hell
And when you do the tricks, the tricks look so good
I got buried rumors waiting in the woods
And they try to climb awake
And call me over
Skies they rape and skies are sober
Minds they fake and minds rolled over
It's good, it's good, it's good
I know that you're dying
I know that it's true
I know there's seven thousand things you rather be and rather do
And I know that you fuck what you love
And you love what you fuck
I'll keep them out girl, I'll keep it true
I'll do anything inside the skin of you
'Cause I know that the sound of your heart
Is a god I can trust
Like a man
Not a boy
I don't love, I just fight with the violence in ourselves
It's all gonna break
And you all want the lovely music to save your lives
And you all want the lovely music to save your lives
Keep it coming
There is no lie to save your life
Keep it coming
This is the lie to save your life
Why are you always fucking ghosts?
Why are you always fucking ghosts?
Why?
It's been such a long
Life that we trust
Your heart is a whore
And love is just lust
You want what you can't
And you can't cause of fear
We've got to get
Out of here
Why are you always?
Its been and it settles down and fights to love
Its all gonna break

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
are you kidding? the lyrics aren't disgusting; it's real and its raw and theres so much passion dripping from the words it's insane. i like how broken social scene has beautiful music but doesn't paint a picture portrait in all their lyrics because life really never roles that way.
