just remember that its my hand that opened this vein so youre excused from all the future entanglements well never have. precious rubies spell out, welcome home, on a banner streaming across the sky looking westward. i found myself in a tv plot that i dont want to act in. im not a child anymore, so why do i have to raise my hand? im counting lessons ill never learn on twenty fingers and twenty toes. i dont want to sleep it off tonight but i can still outrun the reruns with my friends of yesteryear. maybe its better we never see each other and live for right now. its time for bed so wrap yourself in false friendships that you created yourself. maybe its better to sleep in or wake up. wake up. im waking up.

    The end of the song is truly amazing, the last 'I'm waking up' that is.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.

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

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.

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.
