With stars crossed we take our cues
"Show no remorse" is what you said to me
Dangerously we undo
Falling down to Earth, landing in the sea
All that I know and adore
I told you nothing but the truth
Comes crumbling to the floor
Me lying here is your proof

God I need out
God I need out, need out again
Got to find my way back to you
God I need out
God I need out, need out again
Got to find my way back to you

Home... (We've gotta find our way home)
Home... (We've gotta find our way home)
Home... (We've gotta find our way home)
Home...

Falling faster from the sky
I sit here, lost on your bed
Unmissable look in your eye
All this torture running through my head
Takes me to where I can't go
Take my hand and I'll lead you to safety
By now the ground is too close
All I think about is you and me

God I need out
God I need out, need out again
Got to find my way back to you
God I need out
God I need out, need out again
Got to find my way back to you

Home... (We've gotta find our way home)
Home... (We've gotta find our way home)
Home... (We've gotta find our way home)
Home...

We're flying far from home
So close your eyes, and hope
We're flying far from home
So close your eyes, and hope

Close your eyes and take into the night
Why don't you forget about my history?
Close your eyes and take into the night
Why won't you just forgive me?
Close your eyes and take into the night
Why won't you show me your conscience?
Close your eyes and take into the night
Walking home, feeling hopeless

We're nothing but satellites in the sky
We're nothing but satellites in the sky
We're nothing but satellites in the sky
We're nothing but satellites in the sky
We're nothing but satellites in the sky
We're nothing but satellites in the sky
We're nothing but satellites in the sky
We're nothing but satellites in the sky

    People know the names of stars, moons, constellations... All these heavenly bodies that don't really mean anything.

    But artificial satellites, made by us, useful to us, the only heavenly bodies which really are ours, no one knows their name.

    We're nothing but satellites in the sky.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

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.
