This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
A salty ring of night fatigue
When I get the sweats
From your listening
Primordial cymatics
Giving birth into reverse
Serated more ephemera
Undo her mother’s curse
So if you
Break me a mirror
Bring the broken pieces
Of a place that isn’t here
Don’t hide that guilty smile
Condolences
Won’t go away
The coins you bring
Left footprints
Blind thirst
And Braille liquor
My bed is stained
With fractures
Year after vitiated year
Four corners you are touching
They will liberate
My need
Bite marks
In the menagerie
With infadelic teeth
Is there something out there
Waiting to take hold
When that whore won’t answer
Who is in control?
And the names you planted
Drop the seeds into a hole
If you force me often
I might jump off the board
I am a deaf con of angora goats
Warning you all who pass this mote
It’s only a matter of folding in time and space
Before I become your epidemic
Is this the first time at my conventicle
You better not talk
If you came here for semantics
It’s only a matter of folding in time and space
Before I become your epidemic
Don’t ignore my presence
Hidden reads the scrolls
By the time I asked her
The earth fell off the tongue
What once was laughter
Corrosive I became
Where a scarlet bruise grows
Sprout the fault we own
I am a deaf con of angora goats
Warning you all who pass this mote
It’s only a matter of folding in time and space
Before I become your epidemic
Is this the first time at my conventicle
You better not talk
If you came here for semantics
It’s only a matter of folding in time and space
Before I become your epidemic
Don’t hide your guilty freight
Condolences won’t go away
You’ve got that guilty smile
That culminates in bedlam
Is the safety that you feel
From the witness
Who was kept quiet
In the wings
When I get the sweats
From your listening
Primordial cymatics
Giving birth into reverse
Serated more ephemera
Undo her mother’s curse
So if you
Break me a mirror
Bring the broken pieces
Of a place that isn’t here
Don’t hide that guilty smile
Condolences
Won’t go away
The coins you bring
Left footprints
Blind thirst
And Braille liquor
My bed is stained
With fractures
Year after vitiated year
Four corners you are touching
They will liberate
My need
Bite marks
In the menagerie
With infadelic teeth
Is there something out there
Waiting to take hold
When that whore won’t answer
Who is in control?
And the names you planted
Drop the seeds into a hole
If you force me often
I might jump off the board
I am a deaf con of angora goats
Warning you all who pass this mote
It’s only a matter of folding in time and space
Before I become your epidemic
Is this the first time at my conventicle
You better not talk
If you came here for semantics
It’s only a matter of folding in time and space
Before I become your epidemic
Don’t ignore my presence
Hidden reads the scrolls
By the time I asked her
The earth fell off the tongue
What once was laughter
Corrosive I became
Where a scarlet bruise grows
Sprout the fault we own
I am a deaf con of angora goats
Warning you all who pass this mote
It’s only a matter of folding in time and space
Before I become your epidemic
Is this the first time at my conventicle
You better not talk
If you came here for semantics
It’s only a matter of folding in time and space
Before I become your epidemic
Don’t hide your guilty freight
Condolences won’t go away
You’ve got that guilty smile
That culminates in bedlam
Is the safety that you feel
From the witness
Who was kept quiet
In the wings

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.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
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.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
A cavaletta is a woman who tries to change her sexual partner into a self-made fantasy.
You can clearly see distinct parables throughout the song that I hear about a woman or women in general... in fact, a lot of this album and some of Amputechture seem to make connections to women. I have trouble distinguishing the songs though, because they are so littered with references to God.
Day of the Baphomets, for instance, reminds me of a cheating woman who is caught in the act... however, the song is clearly connected somehow to that of a supreme being.
Also, the lyric "You've got that guilty smile that culminates in bedlam," the word "bedlam" sounds like it's being sang "Bethlehem" to me. I know it's bedlam, but it's just odd to me that it coincides with the albums utter disdain for God.
bedlam means chaos so it's more like a smile that only comes out during a time of chaos.
