Here's a taste of the even sins

Driven to distraction, waiting on you call.
I am getting trigger happy
But it doesn't help at all.
No, and I can't even think
With you still in my head.
No, and I cannot do anything
I want you in my head.

Envy, envy, envy.

Breathless, weak I'm distracted
I want to get under your skin.
A fever, you leave my mouth dry
But, I can't do anything.
Can't stop this burning from within.

C'mon baby, c'mon baby, c'mon baby, c'mon.

Fingertips in the honey dipped
You know it set my soul on fire.
From her sultry hips, to her velvet lips.
You know I couldn't get much higher.
I lose my concentration, walk around in a dream.
So come on give me some of your reaction,
I want to know explicitly.
How it feels, so dirty sweet.

Envy, envy, envy.
Envy, envy, envy.

C'mon baby, c'mon baby, c'mon baby, c'mon.
Too much! too much!

Got struck by a lightening bolt,
Between the eyes, got paralysed.
Way before I realised, hypnotised.
Conspiracy, mystery, the air she breathes,
Controversy, I'm heading for the deep freeze.

Envy, envy, envy.
Envy, envy, envy.

From the east to the west,
The north to the south,
I want you so bad,
Want to turn turn you inside out,
I want to all night long,
Feel the sweet sensations,
Sassy temptations,
Of her hot vibrations.

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."

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.

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.
