In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Slow motion Broken and sick Unconsciously Cryin aloud Life sprawled
out in blood sweat and tears 11 months 4 more surgeries Still I pray
Until this day I must say It's ok Because I was left alone The bastard
child I am Alone and sick to my stomach And pukin again, again good
God Come on its just another hour broken Come on its just another hour
cold Come on its just that now that I'm broken Come on its just that
now I'm alone Come on its just that now that I'm broken Come on its
just that now that I'm cold Come on its just that now that I'm broken
Come on its just that now I'm alone Come on its just another hour
broken Come on its just that now that I'm cold Come on its just that
now that I'm broken Come on its just that now that I'm cold Come on
its just that now I'm alone again Come on its just that now that I'm
broken Come on its just that now that I'm cold Come on its just that
now that I'm broken Come on its just that now I'm alone Slow motion
Feelin all broken and sick Cryin alone Sayin to myself "My mother's
gonna be healthy My mother's gonna be healthy" Reach out for a hug but
no one's there Cryin alone in the corner I stand In the corner Sayin
to myself "My mother's gonna be alright.

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.
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/
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.
it's about Steve's Mom. She was very ill.
I absolutely love this fuckin' song!
