Don't make a badge and wear it too
So mark my S's through and through
Because I'd buy anything for you
Because I'd wear my badge and sell it too
And my voice is finally giving in
And I tuned it down another step
So I can hit that note you wept
When I play that one note again

And the body is a tempting tool
An argument on what to do
But we all know there is a truth to truth
But I make my badge and screw it too
And I think I found the missing link
Your head inside a kitchen sink
And throw up until you cannot drink
That's got to be the missing link

So what's a boy or girl to do
Well, I've turned into an epic fool
A man, a myth, a stepping stool
I make my badge and wear it too

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
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.

He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
