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.
This space is not my home
This head you dwell in is not my home
Made a vow to cut it out
Take things slow as we made rules
To reach our unpredictable goodbyes
Your heart, your heart understood mine
Found in forbidden nights
Sharp as glass and twice as bright
Ignore the promises we made
Forgotten now, we'll never get our way
My mouth your lips
Your hands my hips
Our time right now
Will set us free
And relieve us
Of our misery
Secrets lie in our wake
Your kiss tastes better outside the light of day
Gnaw your shoulder, scratch your back
Break my knuckles feel them crack
I reveal nothing, we'll both play it fake
Pretend not to worry
Our hearts your hearts, at stake
My mouth your lips
Your hands my hips
Our time right now
Will set us free
And relieves us
Of our misery
Hard to believe
You could cause me harm
This could cause me harm
Hard to believe
You could cause me harm
This could cause me harm
My mouth your lips
Your hands my hips
Our time right now
Will set free
And relieves us
Of our misery
My mouth your lips
Your hands my hips
Hard time right now
Will set free
And relieves us
Of our misery
This head you dwell in is not my home
Made a vow to cut it out
Take things slow as we made rules
To reach our unpredictable goodbyes
Your heart, your heart understood mine
Found in forbidden nights
Sharp as glass and twice as bright
Ignore the promises we made
Forgotten now, we'll never get our way
My mouth your lips
Your hands my hips
Our time right now
Will set us free
And relieve us
Of our misery
Secrets lie in our wake
Your kiss tastes better outside the light of day
Gnaw your shoulder, scratch your back
Break my knuckles feel them crack
I reveal nothing, we'll both play it fake
Pretend not to worry
Our hearts your hearts, at stake
My mouth your lips
Your hands my hips
Our time right now
Will set us free
And relieves us
Of our misery
Hard to believe
You could cause me harm
This could cause me harm
Hard to believe
You could cause me harm
This could cause me harm
My mouth your lips
Your hands my hips
Our time right now
Will set free
And relieves us
Of our misery
My mouth your lips
Your hands my hips
Hard time right now
Will set free
And relieves us
Of our misery

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
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.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
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.
