Try to make it last
Nothing you can do
In a photograph
The innocence you thought you lost
Is staring back at you
CHORUS
Young hearts beat fast
Driving down the road
Rubber, plastic, metal, glass
Why did you have to go?
Young hearts die young
When they're all alone
And there's no turning back now
There's no turning back
There's no turning back
Knowing where you're bound
It's coming into view
Then you turn around
The innocence you thought you lost
Is coming back to now
CHORUS [x2]
Time enough to live
Never time to die
All you had to give
Taken by the one you loved
And geared into a lie
CHORUS [x3]
Nothing you can do
In a photograph
The innocence you thought you lost
Is staring back at you
CHORUS
Young hearts beat fast
Driving down the road
Rubber, plastic, metal, glass
Why did you have to go?
Young hearts die young
When they're all alone
And there's no turning back now
There's no turning back
There's no turning back
Knowing where you're bound
It's coming into view
Then you turn around
The innocence you thought you lost
Is coming back to now
CHORUS [x2]
Time enough to live
Never time to die
All you had to give
Taken by the one you loved
And geared into a lie
CHORUS [x3]

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.
I Can't Go To Sleep

Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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.
It's about a guy who commits suicide after an argument with his partner!
