looking just like he's begging for change
scooping your fate as you watch it go by
all the times he's been saving your hide
you've been supplying the thrill that he rides
and you have to be thankful tonight
he's got your string, you're the wander in kind
and he makes it so you do your things
strengthen the team and then watch it go wild
avey: he can stand there, do his thing while he (well wishes that will be lost?) x2
panda: and he can stand there, (can stand in same clothes?), and he (would like to move on to his clothes?)
you can't blame the goalie, it's not like he planned it
you can't blame the goalie, he's down on his knees
all the weight of the world
panda: that ball was lost and he stood by, that ball was lost and he stood by
avey: you go inside and pull it
i don't know if i can pass your test as goalie
but i'll do my best cause i can't be the only
i don't wish that i could be the greatest goalie
yet i'll do my best cause i care
avey: they will cheer him as he fights on, shouting demons from the sidelines x2
panda: they will cheer him as he fights on, shouting demons from the sidelines
you can't blame the goalie, it's not like he planned it
you can't blame the goalie, he's down on his knees
all the weight of the world
panda: that ball was lost and he stood by, that ball was lost and he stood by
avey: you go inside and pull it
i don't know if i can pass your test as goalie
but i'll do my best cause i can't be the only
i don't wish that i could be the greatest goalie
yet i'll do my best cause i care
panda: he will dive as he blocks as he kicks and he goes (to the dive as he blocks as he kicks and he goes) x7

This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io

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.

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

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.
