Smallish mouse of the Favelas
Hands cut off at the urging of the good ones
Twist the stip of your wrist
Leave the last of your sin
Leave the stip of your arm
As you wait for the lost one
Oh what is the first thing you’ll touch?
What are the first mosquito that you’ll crush me?
On the pink bare glass
Will you smash it on the wall
Just be glad that you can drink from where they get it
Little mouse of the Favelas
Hands to be transplanted by the grace of Portuguese cherry
Oh what is the first thing you’ll touch?
What are the first mosquito that you’ll crush me?
On the pink bare glass
Will you smash it on the wall
Just be glad that you can drink from it again
Bleed a scar on your wrist
Worse than the one you passed out
But those fix only that
although Iberia(?) has caused all your angst
Oh what is the first thing you’ll touch
What are the first tarantula that you’ll crush me
On the pink bare glass
Will you smash it on the wall
Just be glad you can drink from where they get it

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.

Just A Little Lovin'
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/

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
