I, shaman, trudging aimlessly in the shades of the neon lights
(all day running!... hunting!... wanting!)
White snowflakes falling, flashing under the halogene lamps
(Warning: It’s morning! Morning is coming!)
The leaves of a plastic tree under a bright white mist
(warning, falling, wanting, running)
In the snow make-up girl hobgoblins trudging with their boots...

I keep on wanting
I keep on searching
I keep on hunting...

...For when the mankind’s struggling for their safety, preservation
The poor are raising their huge force against the domination!
(Every machine needs some oil to move
Coffee with a muffin makes me groove...)

Good that there’s some cents in my pocket from the last night’s rave
It’s time to go and meet some friends in Robert’s Cafè
I could stay Travolta all night long
But now it’s good to stay calm and live for minimal product
(I live for a minimal product...
I live for a minimal product...
I LIVE FOR A MINIMAL PRODUCT...)

I did never believe that way,
that merry-go-round is all what we need
I’m not taking in of what you say,
to raise a family and work all day

Oh, I keep shining in my tired mind,
being friends with everyone
To be free, not being in jail
To be free, not being in jail
To be free, not being in jail
To be free, not being in jail...

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.

Midnight
Ed Sheeran
“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms. “Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
