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.
Three teeth left his silver smile
Brushed clean three metal tiles
And tiles like parking lots
Three miles it never stops boy
You'll be okay boy
Your silver tiles
And all our hopes
And all our friends
Through parking lots
It's where we've been
Shoes have grown mighty old
Pants faded knees with holes
Stitched up now silver thread
Fixed up now like I said boy
You'll be okay boy
Your silver thread boy
Your silver tiles
Your silver bones
And all our hopes
And all our friends
Through parking lots
I found this
B I got in school
Three teeth left his silver smile
Burnt skin for miles and miles
Of crossing parking lots
Three miles it never stops boy
You'll be okay boy
Your silver tiles
Your silver bones
With silver sides
And all our hopes
And all our friends
Through parking lots
I found this
B I got in school
And all our hopes
And all our friends
Through parking lots
I found this
B I got in school
It's the B I got in school
Brushed clean three metal tiles
And tiles like parking lots
Three miles it never stops boy
You'll be okay boy
Your silver tiles
And all our hopes
And all our friends
Through parking lots
It's where we've been
Shoes have grown mighty old
Pants faded knees with holes
Stitched up now silver thread
Fixed up now like I said boy
You'll be okay boy
Your silver thread boy
Your silver tiles
Your silver bones
And all our hopes
And all our friends
Through parking lots
I found this
B I got in school
Three teeth left his silver smile
Burnt skin for miles and miles
Of crossing parking lots
Three miles it never stops boy
You'll be okay boy
Your silver tiles
Your silver bones
With silver sides
And all our hopes
And all our friends
Through parking lots
I found this
B I got in school
And all our hopes
And all our friends
Through parking lots
I found this
B I got in school
It's the B I got in school

Little Feat
Little Feat
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.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
at first, i thought of silver tiles as braces, but after not making rash judgements, i realised they could be mirrors. the silver tiles seem to be reflecting all the hopes, friends, times spent in parking lots, etcetera as would a mirror if we could see our memories.
either way, it's a darling song.
well, im not sure how to explain the begining... but in a way i understand it. (if that makes sense)
but, at the end i feel its trying to say, that its okay that you come second.
talking about the b in school. its because of the b in school.
and the whole silver thing. its second. first gold, then silver.
thats what i get from this song anyway.
yeah i see what you mean. I think after everything, you'll always be judged subordinately. never making it to the top in the eyes of the beholder. its like getting jobs, life, and shit, you'll never prevail because of the b you got when you were 17.
I think this song is about friendship. 1st they talk about how ther person's smile is big and call it silver tiles, then in the choras it means with their friends they smile. I think the next part is saying everything is going to be okay if you smile. then i think its about not everything is going to be a perfect 'A'. but that's just what i think.
The song is saying it's ok to come in 2nd place. Silver is second to gold, B's second to A's, and so on.
The way I see it is that a guy lost 3 teeth and got them replaced with false, silver teeth. And when it says "like parking lots, three miles it never stops" meaning the teeth are so noticeable and people wont stop making fun of him. then for the chorus, it says all his hopes and friends are changing because of them. Then for verse two, he starts not caring about himself (shoes have grown old, pants faded etc.) and everything in the world to him revolves around his silver tiles. For chorus 2, the b in school part probably means he was a straight-A student and the tiles have affected his life so much it changed his grades. Then in verse 3 I think he learns to live with it and its all okay :D
At a show he legit said this song is about knocking his brother's teeth out
..... And it's a kickass song in general....
At a concert, they said it was for their original fans - those who watched them in parking lots, (odd places before they became so popular). one fan shouted "and hospitals" and matt replied "yeah, i think we played in a hospital once!" ^-^
just appreciating their happy beginning is my interpretation!
this song is acctually about old friends. i was just talking to matt about it after a show. they always dedicate it to their original fans because they couldnt be there without them
Really great song. I can some-what relate to it... I guess with the "I found this B I got in school" . I'm not really sure what the lyrics mean......
I saw them a few months back and before they played the song Matt said that they always play that song whenever they play a city they've never played before.
He said that it's about when he was in high school him and all his friend used to hang out in a parking lot and i quote to "Shut the fuck up, it was a sweet fucking parking lot!" haha.
So basically it's about that time in his life, the friends, the surroundings, etc. that all revolved around that parking lot. So whatever the individual might gather from the lyrics, are what it's about, no real hidden meaning here.
