[Chorus:]
We're saying RIP to everyone we know
Our glass is now half empty
But the tears will overflow

And still we're screaming
RIP to everyone we love
Is everyone below mad at
Everyone above?

This is the valley where animals live
Stresses like wind to a man on a bridge
Stand on the edge with the city below
Below the city is 60 below

Is he alone? Is he a shadow?
And will he be home in the minute of battle?
He's roaming of vandal
No roman candles lit on the night that he died

Let it be I
Should've been me in his place
Scared as I stare in the face of his mother
In case I discover the fear in the fate

My brother I sent another prayer into space
Rest in peace to Prince and Thief
Can we speak to
Ghosts?

[Chorus]

Cold is the hand on the angel of death
Drawing you to it's embrace
From a caress
Reducing to strangle your neck

Pulling into and from grace
This is your fate
Stare into the eyes of your sin
Every morning you begin

Who are your family?
Who are your friends?
Lost in the culprit of needles and pins
Tommy was itchin'

The fix in the kitchen
He made a decision
He wanted to scratch
Chasing the dragon

But facing the dragon
Is not really something
He wanted to catch
But he finally did

I wonder
Did he try to repent?
As life slipped from his eyes
Scratching

[Chorus]

We still love you
We will miss you
We still love you
Is it blissful?

We still love you
We will miss you
We still love you
Is it bliss?

Eric, My cousin
I call to your spirit!
Answer!
I know you can hear it!

I conjure your soul with these lyrics!
Manifest some kind of appearance!
Scare us
I don't even care

It's better then just wondering
Where it was that you were carried
I helped carry you physically to be buried
But the rest, every individual varies

[Chorus]

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.

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

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
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/

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
