I spread my wings
I tried to fly
I believe in myself
When there was nothing right
And I
I know I am dust
I know we are sand
But we give of ourselves
As best as we can
Why does it always rain
On Mondays
For me

Bodies in motion
Bodies at rest
Got to get inside you
Got to get lost
Jump into the water
Jump into your life
Diving in deep
To your ever changing light

I been lost
And I been found
I made my bed
In this sea of sound
And we have been so high
Been so low
Are you the one
That I need to know
Why does it always rain
On Mondays
For me

Bodies in motion
Bodies at rest
Got to get inside you
Got to get lost
Jump into the water
Jump into your life
Diving in deep
To your ever changing light
Into the deep of your ever changing light
Of your ever changing never changing light

Into your light
Into your light

We found love
And we found pain
And I know that you're sinking
'Cause I feel the same
Why does it always rain
On Mondays
For me

Bodies in motion
Bodies at rest
Got to get inside you
Got to get lost
Jump into the water
Jump into your life
Diving in deep
To your ever changing light

Bodies in motion
Bodies at rest
Got to get inside you
Got to get lost
Jump into the water
Jump into your life
Diving in deep
To your ever changing light

    He is definately talking on many levels about his sexual relationship w/ a chick. " Hush child - lay your sweet lips on me This greed - bigger than you and me Will you come again " have u ever wanted someone that bad? u cannot control your desire (greed). "Tongue tied and a visceral third degree Feel warm - center of gravity" tongie-tied (french kissing or speechless from your desire) visceral is your vein system-when u get sexually excited your veins swell(down there-men & women) that is how men get a hard-on and "center of gravity" is her g-spot! "wash us all away-body never lies" you can't hide an orgasm. Your body will always give away how you feel. u can't hide your true physical desires and responses to another person. "Will you come again Will we stay friends " ok, he knows they have to be together cause they cannot deny what they feel, but he is worried it will screw everything else up. will they be friends still after they have each other or will it be awkward forever after?" There are times when I wish That I was you Thick skinned- cities you drive me through Better than me - you're a woman " he thinks somehow that he feels more pain than she does, that she can easily put their time together past her, possibly to be w/someone else without looking back or remembering him-thinks somehow, she is stronger (emotionally) b/c she is a woman. He must have had a mother that was there for him emotionally and/or that he saw as being "stonger" emotionally than others in his life. "Seven days and my system is free again We rise - lose it on oblivion Falling away - sorry for the way Your child is on fire Lick these my ruby lips Drop your protein pills " ok-this may be far-fetched, but somehow I think he is talking about a woman's cycle-during certain times the "protein pills"- sperm-is "lost on oblivion"-get shot "out there" to never become anything. Or "lick these my ruby lips" he is going down on her and she cums dropping her protein pills-anyway, in the end he says it is just better to "lose yourself" totally enjoy and give into the moment. The feeling you have after that...the kissing...etc. could never fully be explained even with "pretty words".

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
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.

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.

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

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
