It was a long time ago longer now than it seems.
A place that perhaps that you have seen in your dreams...
Welcome to my world, is it what you thought it would be?
I am trapped inside this hell between blood queen and purgatory a coop filled covered hall,
A tattooed baby
Doll,
I've got the devil in my corner and Jesus on my wall.

Today is an oatmeal day I fell like a monster babe preacher, save me with your call and I will be your little miss scareall.
One eye's green and one eye's blue.
Demons, angels, a love that's true catch me as I start to fall, let me be your little miss scareall.
Halloween is over but I will keep you scared,
Take you to the fright side I know you'll come prepared, be your deadly nightshade, turn your christmas black
And you can be my johnny homicidal maniac

Today is an oatmeal day I fell like a monster babe preacher, save me with your call and I will be your little miss scareall.
One eye's green and one eye's blue.
Demons, angels, a love that's true catch me as I start to fall, let me be your little miss scareall.
Halloween is over but I will keep you scared,
Take you to the fright side I know you'll come prepared, be your deadly nightshade, turn your christmas black
And you can be my johnny homicidal maniac

Forgive me preacher for I have sinned.
It's been three weeks since my first confession.
I am the one
Hiding under your bed.
My teeth are sharp, my lips are red,
I am the one
Hiding under your stairs with snakes and spiders in her hair
I feel like a monster babe little miss Scareall,
I feel like a monster babe.

    This song makes me want to hop around and just scare the shit out of people. x)

    "Today is an oatmeal day..." She's bored, she wants to cause hell, and she's inviting...er, apparently a religious figure to join her.

    And oh em fucking gee, a reference to JtHM. Eeee. xD

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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,

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.

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.
