This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
With the sidewalks trading love
As subway lights grow brighter
We're just another hype
But the pressure's getting harder
(Get up, get up, get up take it much higher)
All lover's etiquette
Make love on first impression
And adolescent sex with juvenile intentions
(Get up, get up, get up take it much higher)
Whatever gets you through the night
Just keep on dancing
Whatever gets you through the night
Just keep on dancing babe
Well the lady buys a thrill
Excitement in succession
But a heartache won't partake
In articulate obsession
Well pretty things at rest
No courtesy surprising
For love is heaven blessed
All catastrophes denying
(get up, get up, get up take it much higher)
Whatever gets you through the night
Just keep on dancing
Whatever gets you through the night
Just keep on dancing babe
Well you're out on the street
With your lover's infections
Count impossibilities by limination
And your body still damp
From your one-room apartment
And your heartache reminds me
Love's ?? any doubt
You submerge again, emerge again
Just get out the strain
As subway lights grow brighter
We're just another hype
But the pressure's getting harder
(Get up, get up, get up take it much higher)
All lover's etiquette
Make love on first impression
And adolescent sex with juvenile intentions
(Get up, get up, get up take it much higher)
Whatever gets you through the night
Just keep on dancing
Whatever gets you through the night
Just keep on dancing babe
Well the lady buys a thrill
Excitement in succession
But a heartache won't partake
In articulate obsession
Well pretty things at rest
No courtesy surprising
For love is heaven blessed
All catastrophes denying
(get up, get up, get up take it much higher)
Whatever gets you through the night
Just keep on dancing
Whatever gets you through the night
Just keep on dancing babe
Well you're out on the street
With your lover's infections
Count impossibilities by limination
And your body still damp
From your one-room apartment
And your heartache reminds me
Love's ?? any doubt
You submerge again, emerge again
Just get out the strain

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.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
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.
Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
