I want to know you're broken for the path you've chosen
I want to know you're reaping what you have sown
And I'll give you more than you've ever wanted
Faithful forever, with these words I promise
You want it, you got it, it's all for real
I want to know you're breathing for the day of morrow

I want to know you'll suffer to rest in peace
And I've given more than you've ever wished for
Forever faithful, with these words I promise
You want it, you got it it's all for real
It's all for real - let it go

    I interpreted it as basically "you reap what you sow"... "you want it you got it." This person is broken because he chose to live out of the will of God and he is reaping what he has sown. God is saying to him that he will be faithful to him if he is to let everything go.

    "You want it you got it" Plays a double meaning in that it is also signifying "ask and ye shall receive." He is getting what he has asked for.

    That is just what I get out of it though.

The Spy

Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

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.
