Voice of Reason

Quietdrive

Would you let all your friends down?
Is your love in drugs and money?
Did you care enough?
Not before you said
It’s not too late

We have waited all our lives
To become something more than nothing
Did you think more of us now?
I said

Chorus
It’s not too late
I’m not that scared
Of it anymore
Oh yeah
That’s why
You are the voice of reason
I know the reasons why
We’ve covered up our treason
Can’t seem to find out why

(Can’t seem to find out why)

So I’ll take all your advice
And I’ll check to see if I’m running
‘Cause it’s not like I can care enough
It’s not too late

Chorus
(I’m sick and tired of pulling down)

I’ll pinch the mouse trap on this one
I’ve had the most in on this one
(You’ll turn away, you’ll turn away)
I’ll play my cards out on this hand
I’ll separate it while I can
(You’ll turn away, you’ll turn away, you’ll turn away, you’ll turn away)

(You are the voice of reason)
(I know the reasons why)
You are the voice of reason
I know the reasons why
We covered up our treason
Can’t seem to find out why
(I’m sick and tired of pulling down)

This time I’m not
Shy anymore
Now this time I’m not
Shy anymore
Now this time I’m not
Shy anymore
Now this time I’m not
Shy anymore

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.

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.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
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.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
