Yeah so I’m thinking back to the time we spent together and I
Yeah we said we could have one minute (more)
And if I had that chance would, would it be now or never
Could I just find something to say?

And I know, am I to, to want to see you today?
Am I to, to hold in the feelings I don’t feel to say
Am I to, to feel things, that’s trapped inside?
Am I to, to hold to on every single thing inside my heart?
And I never will forget, you know it’s true

You were there for me once, but now you’re and so I’m
So confused on what life means
I sit back and I ponder, the dreams of tomorrow
And I find my thoughts of yesterday

And I know, am I to, to want to see you today?
Am I to, to hold in the feelings I don’t feel to say
Am I to, to feel things, that’s trapped inside?
Am I to, to hold to on every single thing inside my heart?
And I never will forget, you know it’s true

I can ? myself down, or I can think about it
And realize things won’t be the same
But I can’t do that so I stand up and fight forever
? things this way

Oh father if you were here, you might not be forever
It might just be one minute more

And I know, am I to, to want to see you today?
Am I to, to hold in the feelings I don’t feel to say
Am I to, to feel things, that’s trapped inside?
Am I to, to hold to on every single thing inside my heart?
And I never will forget, you know it’s true, I’ll never forget you

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,

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced 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.
