I see you
And I'm waiting to make my move
But I’m scared
And I know that you've got
Better things to do

I'll touch your hand
And I'm wearing my heart on my sleeve
It's cliché, I know
But baby, it's the price we pay

To get the things we've wanted
And get the things we've left behind
It's what you've wanted
What you needed
What you've always dreamt about

Don't take another step
Don't breathe another breath
Unless you're coming back to me

I'm trusting you
And I'm taking the long way home
I'm leaving
And it's not because of you
Will you just hold me tight
And never let me go?
I know this whole thing's wrong
But baby, we're invincible

If I could take these words
And fill them up with air
I'd fly you to the stars
So we can disappear

If I could take your heart
And keep it close to me
I swear it will not break
I swear it will not bleed

And I believe
Just anything you say
If you would tell me to get lost
I'd ask "How far away?"

And now it's getting late
And I can't keep my eyes open
My heart's open for you

I'm trusting you
And I'm taking the long way home
I'm leaving
And it's not because of you
Will you just hold me tight
And never let me go?
I know this whole thing's wrong
But baby, we're invincible

(Will you just hold me tight
And never let me go?
I know this whole thing's wrong
But baby, we're invincible)

Will you just hold me tight (I see you)
And never let me go? (I'm waiting to make my move)
I know this whole thing's wrong (But I'm scared and I know)
But baby, we're invincible (That you've got better things to do)

I'm trusting you
And I'm taking the long way home
I'm leaving
And it's not because of you
Will you just hold me tight
And never let me go?
I know this whole thing's wrong
But baby, we're invincible

I'm trusting you (If I could take these words)
And I'm taking the long way home (And fill them up with air)
I'm leaving (I'd fly you to the stars)
And it's not because of you (So we can disappear)
Will you just hold me tight (If I could take your heart)
And never let me go (And keep it close to me)
I know this whole thing's wrong (I swear it will not break)
But baby, we're invincible (I swear it will not bleed)

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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
