Where am i?
Why did i decide to drive this way?
I'm all alone
It's okay the GPS system will guide me home
I just want to go home
I know this isn't the way to drive to jersey
but this is my decision
To go a little further than I usually go
When i drive this road I usually stay home

I know there's nothing in my head
I think i might be dead
I'm waiting for a sign to prove I'm alive
alive and doing well
I'm living for myself
I'm taking life one day at a time

I know there's nothing in my way
nothing's stopping me
And nothing can go wrong
On my journey to this place that happens to be
So far away from home

(I usually stay at home)

I know there's nothing in my head
I think I might be dead
I'm waiting for a sign to prove I'm alive
Alive and doing well
I'm living for myself
I'm taking life one day at a time

(One day at a time)
I love to leave this town when no one is around

I know there's nothing in my head
I think I might be dead
I'm waiting for a sign to prove I'm alive
Alive and doing well
I'm living for myself
I'm taking life one day at a time

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.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
