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.
it's not my place to say what i'm thinking you don't really want to hear what i'll say you're almost there where you want to be don't let me stand in your way cause it's not my day to shine it's not that time yet it's not my time you'll be anything you want to be you'll still mean everything to me so fly away across the ocean that day fly away and don't look back this way ...

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.

Another Love

I think the meaning is pretty clear. This person got really burned in a previous relationship, and because of this is unable to love and show care in his present one, even though he so badly wants to. It's lovely song, and very sad. You can really feel how defeated and frustrated he is with himself.

This track is about is about questioning why the sky would choose to be blue if it had the choice to be anything else, “blue also meaning sad,” states frontman Aaron Pauley. “It's about comforting a loved one in a time of loss by telling them you feel blue, too.”

i would really love to actually hear this song.
Would be nice to hear this one, but it's not gonna happen. I wrote Brett an e-mail a while back asking about this song and he said it was never actually recorded. So... no chance of hearing it. Haha. Unless we someone go back many years and step into Brett's brain to see what he was planning at the time. :p
