Sur cette musique-là
Avec la même intro
Qui n'en finit pas
Toujours dans l'ombre
Tu n'aimais pas que l'on se voie
Alors dans l'ombre
Chacun pour soi

Une mélodie pour Élodie
Une petite fille de mes amis
Qui avait une drôle de maman
Avant
On s'est aimé comme on s'envole
Sur une musique et des paroles
Deux météores au firmament
Passant
Une mélodie pour Élodie
Et pour deux années de ma vie
Qui sont passées comme en rêvant
Deux ans

Sur cette musique-là
Avec un vieux chanteur
Qui trafiquait sa voix
L'un contre l'autre
Enlacés pour une autre fois
L'un contre l'autre
Chacun pour soi

Une mélodie pour Élodie
Une petite fille de mes amis
Qui avait une drôle de maman
Avant
Une chanson tendre pour qu'elle m'entende
Pour qu'elle se souvienne en passant
D'un vieil hôtel, d'un océan
Du vent
On s'est aimé comme on s'envole
Sur une musique et des paroles
On s'est réveillés différents
D'avant

Une mélodie pour Élodie (sur cette)
Une petite fille de mes amis (musique-là)
Qui avait une drôle de maman
Avant
Une chanson tendre pour qu'elle m'entende (sur cette)
Pour qu'elle se souvienne en passant (musique-là)
D'un vieil hôtel, d'un océan
Du vent
On s'est aimé comme on s'envole (sur cette)
Sur une musique et des paroles (musique-là)
On s'est réveillés différents
D'avant

Une mélodie pour Élodie (sur cette)
Une petite fille de mes amis (musique-là)
Qui avait une drôle de maman
Avant

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,

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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
