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.
we drop around the clock
trippin’ it down to beats along the bloc
steady she goes
every all is love in every way
kiss the peace frog with conviction, say
beats drop like cod fish stocks
trippin’ it down to beats along the bloc
steady she goes
every all is love in every way
kiss the peace frog with conviction, say
dear lordosis, please relieve psychosis
behaviour through osmosis
dipsogen cirrhosis
the paranoids playing xylophones with rusty leucotomes
chordates makes ideal mates
and perfect posture
ain’t it maxic how thigmotaxic the herd hath become?
fluoride makes you dumb
shock the casbah, diffusion is next
check the sonic death text
are we but infinite specks left perplexed?
we drop like merck corp. stocks
trippin’ it down to beats along the bloc
steady she goes
every all is love in every way
kiss the peace frog with conviction, say
circadian bowling pin manufacturer
rhythm machine, we’re dopamine fiends
studies show geniuses pick green
so chlorophyll me upstream
how scalene waltzing to rotterdam
dirty shirley
knocking on the membranes of reptile brains
like mr. furley
jack the tripper
pineapple juice sipper
don’t do crystal
hence, no use for blipper
we drop like merck corp. stocks
thalamus gets outlined with chalk
steady she goes
every all is love in every way
kiss the peace frog with conviction, say
to live chromatically or achromatically is my choice
so i choose hues of oranges and blues
no doubt, simple purity
would you be my surity?
should i arrest myself a mea culpa?
she’s golden by the gram, words like pixie dust
she sweeps the room with a smile
and a broom so chill, yet so hot
got no cupboard for the pot
pray that this dream is not for cots
we drop around the clock
trippin’ it down to beats along the bloc
steady she goes
every all is love in every way
kiss the peace frog with conviction, say
trippin’ it down to beats along the bloc

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
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/
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
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.
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.
This song is 100% Ash and his love for dictionaries.....
True, but what he seems to be trying to say is the population is getting dumber through different activities or lack there of. Mostly he points out cell phones/<br /> "isn't it maxic how thigmotaxic the herd hath become, flouride makes you dumb"<br /> Meanning - "look how out there it is that everyone is so atached to their cell phones (thigmotaxic meaning to be attached to a mechanical device) and to add emphasis flouride does dull your mind down.<br /> <br /> Drives this through with "Shock the Kasbah diffusion is next<br /> Check the sonic death text<br /> Are we but infinite specks<br /> Left perplexed"<br /> <br /> Look at at the people dumbing themselves down with text messages by the billions and Ash then labeling them "specks" with no idead what is really going on.<br /> <br /> That verse makes sense, most the rest looks to be word fun with some subtle points thrown in
While I get weary of every song on this site being interepreted as being about drugs, there's just so many references here it's hard to ignore. I don't think it's ABOUT drugs, but it's using drug-influenced language for some effect. Perhaps suggesting that mass media pop culture is a kind of drug? I don't agree with Brandon666's interpretation, but I think he's circling close to the right interpretation. I just can't quite put my finger on it yet.
