The heart breaking makes a sound
I never knew could be
So beautiful and loud
Fury filled and we
Collide

So courageous until now
Fumbling and scared
So afraid You'll find me out
Alone here with my doubt

Here it comes
A beautiful collision
Is happening now
There seems no end to where You begin
And there I am now
You and I
Collide

Something circling inside
Spaciously you fly
Infinite and wide
Like the moon and sky
Collide

Here it comes
A beautiful collision
Is happening now
There seems no end to where You begin
There I am now
You and I
Collide

Yeah-e-yeah-e-yeah

Here it comes
Here it comes
Here it comes, now

Here it comes
Here it comes
Here it comes, now

Here it comes
Here it comes
Here it comes, now

Collide

Here it comes
Here it comes, now

You and I

Here it comes
Here it comes, now

You and I

Here it comes
Here it comes
Here it comes, now

Feel it coming on
Feel it coming on, now
Here it comes, now

Here it comes
Here it comes
Here it comes, now

    Ok...it's definitely not about romance! Read the album notes:

    ”For the past two years, I have ended most nights in concert with the following statement: ‘When our depravity meets His divinity, it is a beautiful collision.’ This recording is about that collision”

    This title track is about that collision. God comes and meets us at the lowest points of our depravity, and inexplicably infuses his divinity into us - we are still human, but we have the eternal God living inside us. The song describes the theological and emotional confusion that springs from this amazing truth.

    Best song on the new album.

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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

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.
