My sun, I see the truth inside of me
And the heavens that are is far beyond the hell I stand
And it's open as sky as a mind
You could face this thing before you lose the time

Fight this sorrow instead of precious silence
Return your favour, it doesn't matter how you live
Fight this sorrow instead of precious silence
Return your favour, it doesn't matter how you live

I told you everything you got on that way
And the question is still without my sight you reach
And it's closer than my heart and my dream
When you would just leave me suffering alone

Forget the price cos I have to pay it anyway
Escape your tears and let's see why you feel
Forget the price cos I have to pay it anyway
Escape your tears and let's see why you feel

Going down again
In this hell I stand
With a handful of words and nothing else

Going down again
In this hell I stand
With a handful of words and nothing else

We start to adapt to this waking pain
I barely can describe what's been plaguing our sight
When you're slow everything I embrace this way
You left me alone with suffering

Forget the price cos I have to pay it anyway
Escape your tears and let's see why you feel
Forget the price cos I have to pay it anyway
Escape your tears and let's see why you feel

Going down again
In this hell I stand
With a handful of words and nothing else

Going down again
In this hell I stand
With a handful of words and nothing else

(solo)

Going down again
In this hell I stand
With a handful of words and nothing else

Going down again
In this hell I stand
With a handful of words and nothing else

Going down again
In this hell I stand
With a handful of words and nothing else

Going down again
In this hell I stand
With a handful of words and nothing else

    I do not guarantee these lyrics to be 100% correct. I love this song, but searching for the words, I could not find anything on the Internet - so I sat down with a slowed down copy of the song, and after hours of listening closely and tweaking what I wrote down, I ended up with these lyrics. Enjoy ^^

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/

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.

Midnight
Ed Sheeran
“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms. “Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
