This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
There's no one like the other
It's in your hands
It lies in all our hands
Listen to your mother
Break free from the fence
It's when you cry it all ends
And you learn like a shadow flows in the rain
Like a foreign flame in the dark
Showing you the way
Bringing you the fire
I will love you
I will hurt you too
All we need is cover
From the no lovers
From the cold others
And you learn like a shadow flows in the rain
Like a foreign flame in the dark
Showing you the way
And you learn
What we feel now isn't pain
Just a scent of it is enough
Blinding me with grace
And there's no have to do it your way
Like a shadow flows in the rain
And you learn
And you learn
And you learn
And you learn
And you learn, and you learn, and you learn, learn
Like a shadow flows in the rain
Like a foreign flame in the dark
Showing you the way
And you learn
What we feel now isn't pain
Just a scent of it is enough
Blinding me with grace
And you learn like a shadow flows in the rain
Like a foreign flame in the dark
Showing you the way
And you learn
It's in your hands
It lies in all our hands
Listen to your mother
Break free from the fence
It's when you cry it all ends
And you learn like a shadow flows in the rain
Like a foreign flame in the dark
Showing you the way
Bringing you the fire
I will love you
I will hurt you too
All we need is cover
From the no lovers
From the cold others
And you learn like a shadow flows in the rain
Like a foreign flame in the dark
Showing you the way
And you learn
What we feel now isn't pain
Just a scent of it is enough
Blinding me with grace
And there's no have to do it your way
Like a shadow flows in the rain
And you learn
And you learn
And you learn
And you learn
And you learn, and you learn, and you learn, learn
Like a shadow flows in the rain
Like a foreign flame in the dark
Showing you the way
And you learn
What we feel now isn't pain
Just a scent of it is enough
Blinding me with grace
And you learn like a shadow flows in the rain
Like a foreign flame in the dark
Showing you the way
And you learn

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.
Just A Little Lovin'

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

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.
