LSD taught me a lot about me
Or would I have figure it out just naturally?
It's too late to tell because I'm talking to hell
With all the other acid casualties
Spent a lot of time staring at ceiling fans
And tripping on stereo panning
Came to a new level of understanding
But it never much came in handy
And now I'm just so damaged
But all those straight minds are just so narrow
And me and my friends are wondering just where oh where
Where did our minds go?

I learned a lot from smoking pot
Then again maybe not
Can't remember what I forgot
I do believe I'm shaking up our conceptions of reality
But goddamn if I don't got friends
Who forget where they were heading
And they're looking every direction
And all they see is dead ends
Some of my friends are already talking
How they miss the old days
But they never seems to connect it
With their new ways
No they never think of changing things
They just order up another drink
And the reasons why we're getting fucked up
End up not mattering that much

Well, yeah, I get fucked up every once in a while
But we all got friends who got to get fucked up just to smile
And it ain't a smile if you got to force it

    In reference to the first verse I think it's, "but It never much came, and now I just don't get it" Instead of just so damaged.

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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Blue
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.

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.
