This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Well, hello sir, we look for Monday
Is confident we?ll get there someday
Pushing all the papers to a wealthy man
Might I say, a beautiful tie you wear
And how do you find such lovely polka dots
And stripes these days?
Break all my thoughts hit the floor
Like I'm makin' the score
I'm the king of the world, I'm a popular man
Count by zero's to ten
If you can't, well, I can
Don't let any one wake me
I'm dreamin' out loud, dreamin' out loud
And all at once, so familiar it seems
I'm dreamin' out loud, dreamin' out loud
Can't find a puzzle to fit into piece, apart of me
Curtain calls in sanctuary
Actors in the cloth, they freak me out
Mockin' my purpose in the magazines
And famous how they make you feel grand
They're always there to hold your hand
In times of trouble, they're best of friends
Break all my thoughts hit the floor
Like I'm makin' the score
I'm the king of the world, I'm a popular man
Count by zero?s to ten
If you can't, well I can
Don't let any one wake me
I'm dreamin' out loud, dreamin' out loud
And all at once, so familiar it seems
I'm dreamin' out loud, dreamin' out loud
Can't find a puzzle to fit into piece, apart of me
They don't care what you say
They don't care what you think
All they care, what you do
Long as you're off beat
Take a look at yourself
Storm tries to come and wreck my world
No, I won't let it
Stumbled escape, through anchored drapes
No way to bedding
I'm dreamin' out loud, dreamin' out loud
And all at once, so familiar it seems
I'm dreamin' out loud, dreamin' out loud
Can't find a puzzle to fit into piece
I'm dreamin' out loud, I'm loud
Can't find a puzzle to fit into piece, apart of me
Well, hello sir, we look for Mondays
Is confident we?ll get there someday
Pushing all the papers to a wealthy man
Might I say, a beautiful tie you wear
And how do you find such lovely polka dots
And stripes these days?
Break all my thoughts hit the floor
Like I'm makin' the score
I'm the king of the world, I'm a popular man
Count by zero's to ten
If you can't, well, I can
Don't let any one wake me
I'm dreamin' out loud, dreamin' out loud
And all at once, so familiar it seems
I'm dreamin' out loud, dreamin' out loud
Can't find a puzzle to fit into piece, apart of me
Curtain calls in sanctuary
Actors in the cloth, they freak me out
Mockin' my purpose in the magazines
And famous how they make you feel grand
They're always there to hold your hand
In times of trouble, they're best of friends
Break all my thoughts hit the floor
Like I'm makin' the score
I'm the king of the world, I'm a popular man
Count by zero?s to ten
If you can't, well I can
Don't let any one wake me
I'm dreamin' out loud, dreamin' out loud
And all at once, so familiar it seems
I'm dreamin' out loud, dreamin' out loud
Can't find a puzzle to fit into piece, apart of me
They don't care what you say
They don't care what you think
All they care, what you do
Long as you're off beat
Take a look at yourself
Storm tries to come and wreck my world
No, I won't let it
Stumbled escape, through anchored drapes
No way to bedding
I'm dreamin' out loud, dreamin' out loud
And all at once, so familiar it seems
I'm dreamin' out loud, dreamin' out loud
Can't find a puzzle to fit into piece
I'm dreamin' out loud, I'm loud
Can't find a puzzle to fit into piece, apart of me
Well, hello sir, we look for Mondays

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 is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
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/

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.
well, coming from the perspective of a songwriter, i can say this is definitely a well-written piece. It's full of insightful metaphors and moving allusions to the real world. in truth, most of the major lines are huge clues to what the song is about. -kudos to the one who said, "i think ryan is speaking about how hollywood/the industry easily uses people..." that's totally the idea. -as for the metaphor asked about earlier, ("stumble to escape, through anchored drapes made of bedding.") i believe it refers to the feeling of being locked into the industry and feeling like it's home at the same time. like being a prisoner in your own house. you belong there, but it also feels invaded and uncomfortable, and sometimes you want to step out, but you can't. it's your whole life.
