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.
Dont wanna bite another nail and leave this hangin
Dont wanna wait another night with you breakin
Dont wanna know just how it feels ot see you leavin
But i cant keep it to myself when your thinkin...
You got me bad,
You got me good,
You got me had,
You got me hooked,
When its me hangin by a moment that you snubbed along the way
Dont wanna lead you down a road that im not goin
Dont wanna hear about that dream without you knowin
I really dont have left a care but dont wanna feel guilty
Biting the bullet im aware your still believing...
You got me bad,
You got me good,
You got me had,
You got me hooked,
When its me hangin by a moment that you snubbed along the way
You got me close
And then you jump
My feet got cold
Took all the fun
And so i bite my lip and bear a smile but wont regret i dont stay awhile
You wanna think you got this bagged and that i couldtn want you more
But be aware that when im not there do you think you'll be so sure...
you think you'll be so sure...think you'll be so sure...
You got me bad,
You got me good,
You got me had,
You got me hooked,
When its me hangin by a moment that you snubbed along the way
You got me close
And then you jump
My feet got cold
It stole all the fun
And so i bite my lip and bear a smile but wont regret i dont stay awhile
[repeat]
Dont wanna wait another night with you breakin
Dont wanna know just how it feels ot see you leavin
But i cant keep it to myself when your thinkin...
You got me bad,
You got me good,
You got me had,
You got me hooked,
When its me hangin by a moment that you snubbed along the way
Dont wanna lead you down a road that im not goin
Dont wanna hear about that dream without you knowin
I really dont have left a care but dont wanna feel guilty
Biting the bullet im aware your still believing...
You got me bad,
You got me good,
You got me had,
You got me hooked,
When its me hangin by a moment that you snubbed along the way
You got me close
And then you jump
My feet got cold
Took all the fun
And so i bite my lip and bear a smile but wont regret i dont stay awhile
You wanna think you got this bagged and that i couldtn want you more
But be aware that when im not there do you think you'll be so sure...
you think you'll be so sure...think you'll be so sure...
You got me bad,
You got me good,

You got me hooked,
When its me hangin by a moment that you snubbed along the way
You got me close
And then you jump
My feet got cold
It stole all the fun
And so i bite my lip and bear a smile but wont regret i dont stay awhile

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
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/
