This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
with miles to drive
on a cerebral highway
where it leads our hearts to
that empire where all unfolds
we drag our knees
through these badlands
and we hurt ourselves
just to feel anything
in the mecca of us
we all glow forever
with cobwebbed eyes
an affair with the puppets
you've seemed to have forgotten
and now you sleep with the rats all alone
i held you so warm
like a brother
a part of you in a part of me so spoiled
i cut you off like a cancer
in the mecca of us
we all glow forever
its simple
how you complete my core
so potent in your eyes
to move mountains
to burn skies
we've broken
our arms and throats
for our portraits
demons or not
it doesn't make a difference to me
im so tired of screaming
in the mecca of us
we all glow forever
on a cerebral highway
where it leads our hearts to
that empire where all unfolds
we drag our knees
through these badlands
and we hurt ourselves
just to feel anything
in the mecca of us
we all glow forever
with cobwebbed eyes
an affair with the puppets
you've seemed to have forgotten
and now you sleep with the rats all alone
i held you so warm
like a brother
a part of you in a part of me so spoiled
i cut you off like a cancer
in the mecca of us
we all glow forever
its simple
how you complete my core
so potent in your eyes
to move mountains
to burn skies
we've broken
our arms and throats
for our portraits
demons or not
it doesn't make a difference to me
im so tired of screaming
in the mecca of us
we all glow forever

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.

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.
Beautiful song, so much emotion in it.
I think this song is about sonny trying to communicate to his fans or a friendship that is really strong and bears a lot of scars
beautiful song... "we all glow forever"
Stunning Song. I Love Sonny's Stuff. :)
Not That Sure On The Meaning Though..
we've broken our arms and throats for our portraits
That they have been put through alot to be known as the "hardcore/emo/whatever other label you slap alongside their name"
demons or not it doesn't make a difference to me im so tired of screaming
He is sick of having to change the way he looks and sound for it to appeal to other people. He just wants to act like himself.
Well I personally think this song, is about how Sonny put himself out there and now Like element4life2257 said he just wants to be himself.
"in the mecca of us we all glow forever" Mecca can mean hope. So Sonny's pretty much saying that he isn't giving up hope and to never give up hope.
hmm, its such a beautiful song.. so different to fftl. but equally as good. possibly better as its more soft + has more meaning to it.
he sings good and the lyrics are pretty but i just dont like the layout of this song. I dont like the way he sings it. I give it a 2.
This is a truely amazing song. Here is what I think each line means.
"with miles to drive on a cerebral highway where it leads our hearts to that empire where all unfolds" -Here he is saying he still has a long way to go and eventually it will all 'unfold' and fall into place.
"in the mecca of us we all glow forever" -As xlovexandxwarx said, Mecca can mean hope. And Sonny is saying he wont give up hope.
"with cobwebbed eyes an affair with the puppets you've seemed to have forgotten and now you sleep with the rats all alone" -Here I think he is saying people have gotten too famous or full of themselves and it just gets them nowhere and they end up alone.
"i held you so warm like a brother a part of you in a part of me so spoiled i cut you off like a cancer" -Here I think he is talking about FFTL. How he kept it going by being there singer and they will always be a part of him and he will be a part of them. And then suddenly, he left.
"its simple how you complete my core so potent in your eyes to move mountains to burn skies" -I'm not sure here. It's like he could be talking about a girl. Or music. Like, how you can get lost in music and you can find yourself in it.
"we've broken our arms and throats for our portraits demons or not it doesn't make a difference to me im so tired of screaming" -And of course, here he is talking about how he just wants to be himself. Instead of constantly changing to fit what other people want.
I think this song is just about life in general for him. I don't think it has anything to do w/ fftl though,<br /> Maybe I am wrong though.<br /> This is such a beautiful song, so emotion-filled. I love it.
How can you give this song a 2? Sonny is an amazing singer. This is my favorite of his new ones so far.
