Hey baby when we are together
Doing things that we love
Every time your near I feel like I'm in heaven
Feeling high
I don't want to let go girl
I just need you to know girl

I don't wanna run away
Baby,your the one I need tonight
No promises
Baby, now I need to hold you tight
I just wanna die in your arms
Hear tonight

Hey baby when we are together
Doing things that we love
Every time your near I feel like I'm in heaven
Feeling high
I don't want to let go girl
I just need you to know girl

I don't wanna run away
Baby,your the one I need tonight
No promises
Baby,now I need to hold you tight
I just wanna die in your arms

I don't want to run away
Wanna stay forever,Eternity
No promises

I don't wanna run away
I don't wanna be alone
No promises
Baby,now I need to hold you tight
Now and forever my love
No promises

I don't wanna run away
Baby,your the one I need tonight
No promises
Baby,now I need to hold you tight
I just want to die in your arms,(here tonight)
I don't wanna run away
Baby, your the one I need tonight
No promises
Baby, now I need to hold you tight
I just wanna die in your arms
Here tonight

    He is dead and he doesnt want to leave his girlfriend. by no promises i think that he is saying that he cant make any promises because nothing is certain you can be here today and gone today. and by i just wanna die in your arms he means that his only wish would have been to die in her arms and tell her how much he loves her and how much that he still wants to be with her.

    My Interpretation

    i don't think it's about a one night stand, that's completely against everything else he's saying.

    i figured he's trying to get this girl to be with him, actually. they've been sort of together, and it's been very good, but she still has reservations because she feels it's too much, too soon. so he's just telling her "i just want you to know that i want to be with you for as long as i can," but no pressure. basically, when he tells her "no promises," he means that SHE doesn't have to promise HIM anything, he's happy just being with her, at her own pace. kind of an "i'll take whatever you give me" idea.

    and the whole "i want to die in your arms" thing is him telling her he wants to be with her forever. it's not as morbid as it sounds initially, it's more like "i want to be with you until my dying day" sort of idea.

    it sounds really great this song. yet the lyrics baffle me. i want to die in your arms? like what on earth is that meant to be. something i'd prefer is a little more cliched "i wanna be at your side, or i want you in my arms" is a little more appropriate in this context, considering this is meant to have a romantic sentiment to it. i wonder who wrote this song? was he on valium or something?

    Its a nice song a bit cliche for sure. The line " I jus wanna die in you arms" is definitely far fetched, its like the Rihanna song "Unfaithful" where she goes "I dont wanna be a murder". ahh well thats pop for you love- hate thing :)

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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

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.
