No time to live, no time to die, no time to sit and wonder why.
No time for you, no time for I, no time to watch the world go by.

And I've got no time for sorrow.
And I've got no time to cry.
And I've got no time for tomorrow.
I've got no time . . .

No time for her, no time for him, no time to let the sunshine in.
No time to love, no time to hate, no time to sleep or stay up late.
No time to rise, no time to fall, no time to see or do it all.
No time to give, no time to take, time is just one big mistake.

And I've got no time to borrow
And I can't procrastinate

And I've got no time to follow
I've got no time . . . to read between the lines
To see what I could find, or shed a tear.

No time to laugh, no time to sing, no time for much of anything
No time to fear, no time to fight, no time to ever see the light

And I've got no time for sorrow.
And I've got no time to cry.
And I've got no time for tomorrow.
I've got no time . . . to read between the lines
To see what I could find, or shed a tear.

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.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.

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.
