The clouds below me are gently unaware
that the sun did cry for us
until we knew it's shape

Gravity pulling life from the body
into a map of the seas
oh my
I've written one too many lies this time
muscles are sore as the loser I am.

Brilliant is he who makes his move
but knows exactly where
he should have gone to
the ones who've held me back
write as the reader you are
until the end of all time

I hid my face in your dress
to act as my disguise
to hide the face that in thirteen years
I would see my own damn eyes

Brilliant is he who makes his move
but knows exactly where
he should have gone to
the ones who've held me back
write as the reader you are
until the end of all time

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,

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
