Some people don't know exactly where to go in
And they'll take the path that's easiest for the load
The quickest way to get there with the most is
They'll take the front of a bus the back of the church
And then they'll take the middle of the road
Some people fight to get in front of one another
And they don't care if they step on someone's toes
When they arrive they have the first selection
And it's the front of the bus the back of the church
And then they'll take the middle of the road
The front of the bus is always crowded the back of the church is always filled
And if you take the middle of the road today you can always say I told you so
The easy way don't always come so easy
And don't take from the harvest if you can't sow
And if your last at everything in life there's still room
At the back of the bus the front of the church
And be the side of the road side of the road

This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io

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.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.

Amazing
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.
