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.
OH NO! I can't do this anymore.
Faded out and coasting in the slow lane
Pushing the limits of death
No idea when the end will come
I think if I were you
I would have driven a million miles an hour
Until my engine explodes
Our lives fushed together, ready to burn up
You've failed everyone, ready to give up
I guess we really don't know
What it feels like pulling all the weight
Pissing all over you, abusing you, bending your will to fit our schedule.
Making every trip a journey into hell.
I'm sorry, but this time you're not coming back
OH NO!!
Every day is the same, So Die Young!
Every day it's the same thing, (I'm) So Tired!
SLEEPING BAG!
You have seen where we have been
You know our every secret
(You see) we just can't let you live
That's just the way its gotta be
At least die with some dignity.
Everyday, everyday, it's the same, you're moving way too slow.
Inch by inch crawling up the mountain.
Everyday, everyday, its the same, so tied.
So give it all you got, give it fucking hell.
Faded out and coasting in the slow lane
Pushing the limits of death
No idea when the end will come
I think if I were you
I would have driven a million miles an hour
Until my engine explodes
Our lives fushed together, ready to burn up
You've failed everyone, ready to give up
I guess we really don't know
What it feels like pulling all the weight
Pissing all over you, abusing you, bending your will to fit our schedule.
Making every trip a journey into hell.
I'm sorry, but this time you're not coming back
OH NO!!
Every day is the same, So Die Young!
Every day it's the same thing, (I'm) So Tired!
SLEEPING BAG!
You have seen where we have been
You know our every secret
(You see) we just can't let you live
That's just the way its gotta be
At least die with some dignity.
Everyday, everyday, it's the same, you're moving way too slow.
Inch by inch crawling up the mountain.
Everyday, everyday, its the same, so tied.
So give it all you got, give it fucking hell.

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.
this song is about their tour bus (?)
