This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
The word came first
In the beginning, came the word
Words can hurt
Let me speak the living word
The living word
Rolling thumbs; enough for the wise
Each desperate blockhead dares to write
A voice in the ditch
Received in cold English
Go ahead, make a wish
The word came first
In the beginning, came the word
Words can hurt
Let me speak the living word
The living word
Lao Tzu replied Confucius as a myriad being:
“How could this be unknowing?”
This must be the event
Albert’s philosopher meant
Now you send
The word came first
In the beginning, came the word
Words can hurt
Let me speak the living word
The living word
LRH met Ho Chi Minh in Paris, 1939
Not that it matters the names, the place, or the time
Alive in the root
The black swan of the brood
Traveling faster and traveling mute
The word came first
In the beginning, came the word
Words can hurt
Let me speak the living word
The living word
Living order; enough for the lies
Only the immortal demand their rights
Returning to pen
Returning to when
The page was white and the word guided men
The word came first
In the beginning, came the word
Words can hurt
Let me speak the living word
Let me speak the living word
The living word
In the beginning, came the word
Words can hurt
Let me speak the living word
The living word
Rolling thumbs; enough for the wise
Each desperate blockhead dares to write
A voice in the ditch
Received in cold English
Go ahead, make a wish
The word came first
In the beginning, came the word
Words can hurt
Let me speak the living word
The living word
Lao Tzu replied Confucius as a myriad being:
“How could this be unknowing?”
This must be the event
Albert’s philosopher meant
Now you send
The word came first
In the beginning, came the word
Words can hurt
Let me speak the living word
The living word
LRH met Ho Chi Minh in Paris, 1939
Not that it matters the names, the place, or the time
Alive in the root
The black swan of the brood
Traveling faster and traveling mute
The word came first
In the beginning, came the word
Words can hurt
Let me speak the living word
The living word
Living order; enough for the lies
Only the immortal demand their rights
Returning to pen
Returning to when
The page was white and the word guided men
The word came first
In the beginning, came the word
Words can hurt
Let me speak the living word
Let me speak the living word
The living word

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.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Head > Heels

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
