I didn't think we'd be out here on our own
Maybe we should just go home
I didn't think we'd be out here on our own
Maybe we should just go home
Where the hell am I?
The cars have no doors
The sun sets in the east everyday at 4
Tell me where I am
What's going on
The babies have 3 eyes

I didn't think we'd be out here on our own
Maybe we should just go home
I didn't think we'd be out here on our own
Maybe we should just go home

Where the hell am I?
It never rains or snows
I knew when I arrived
That it was time to go
Who, what, where and why
The locals hate my guts

I didn't think we'd be out here on our own
Maybe we should just go home
I didn't think we'd be out here on our own
Maybe we should just go home

Something evil lies beneath the surface of the earth
We gotta get out of this place before it gets us first
It was a cold, driving rain
And the wind so strange
That chilled and killed my Annabel Lee

I didn't think
I didn't think we'd be out here on our own
Maybe we should just go home
I didn't think we'd be out here on our own
Maybe we should just go home
I didn't think we'd be out here on our own
Maybe we should just go home
I didn't think we'd be out here on our own
Maybe we should

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.

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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
