You prayed for silence
You played the fool
Hidden in the shadows
Of the darkest nights

Stumblin' and fallin'
Slave to their rules
Compelled to promise
A human sacrifice

When I'm falling
I'm still calling out your name
I feel like burning
And I'll shout it out

Take a look in the mirror
Tell me what you see
Your body's tremblin', shakin'
A clown without a name

Runnin' 'round in circles
Lost in their game
Without reflection
Like a puppet on a string

When I'm falling
I'm still calling out your name
I feel like burning
And I'll shout it out

Into the light
Gonna break the chains that bind me
Into the light
Gonna leave the past behind me
Into the light
There's a sign for inspiration
Out of the night

There is a shadow
Walking next to you
Crazy situation
You don't know what to do

Take a look behind you
Ready for the turn?
Take the final step into
A world that eases pain

Still I'm falling
When I'm calling out your name
I feel I'm burning
I will scream and shout

Into the light
Gonna break the chains that bind me
Into the light
Gonna leave the past behind me
Into the light
There's a sign for inspiration
Out of the night
There's a magic force to guide you
Into the light
Where a day could last forever
Into the light
Can't you see it's now or never
Into the light
Wanna reach for something higher
Into the light

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
