This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
This is about haveing sex witha girl, not not getting laid,
Let’s refuse to write this down, were only here another day,
Still standing on the cusp, we’ll never get to tell this.
Let’s burn this house down, before they all see it.
What’s right? Cause, no one asked.
Better get this done before we get home again to see the one’s who know.
There’s nothing distinct in this, no time to watch the flames, just run,
It’s burning
Just shut your eyes
Watch the ashes
What fun.
This is just a reminder
GOODBYE it’s on to the next town
YOUR FOOD will taste better in our van
DON’T CARE what club you say you own
Just worry about your things when you get home (this evening)
One kiss and the doors still open, you taste like a bad decision baby.
These rumors are true, you’re mad that not about you
Your kiss capsized this ship wreck, your words killed us.
In no way is this victim-less, our heart goes to the next sailor whose sucked in.
Let’s burn this house down before they all know us.
What’s right? Cause, no one asked.
There’s nothing distinct in this, no time to watch the flames just run,
It’s burning
Just shut your eyes
Watch the ashes
What fun.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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 song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

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.
its about having sex with a girl, not not getting laid any questions on how i came up with that?
