Sail away on a crystal ship in a bottle
Gonna say goodbye to all my friends on shore
Maybe she's giving me a second chance
You can't be too sure

Like a bottle of fur
missing the smell of her
bottle of fur
missing the smell of her
Bottle of Fur
Bottle of Fur yeah

If I was a king and you'd dance for me like a genie
then you'd get back in your lamp leaving me here with the gold
Ooh bread of wickedness both sides buttered with want
But your lordship ain't dividing lovin' loaves any more
no more

Maybe she's giving me a second chance
Maybe she's giving me a second chance
You can't be too sure
You can't be too sure
You can't be too sure
You can't be too sure
You can't be too sure
You can't be too sure

Like a bottle of fur
missing the smell of her
I'm missing the smell of her
Like when I'd hold you in the night
we used to make it til daylight
Now I sleep alone
Now I sleep alone

Like a bottle of fur
missing the smell of her
bottle of fur
missing the smell of her
Bottle of Fur
Bottle of Fur yeah

    My Interpretation

    Dude's leaving on a sailing vessel. His woman shaves a most pertinent area of her bod, and puts shaved remnants in a jar, for her man to take on his voyage. So, out at sea, anytime he needs a reminder of what he's missing most about 'shore life', he takes a whiff of the 'bottle of fur', and misses the smell of her no longer. Bon voyage...

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.
