This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Fragments of my life
Are slipping through time
In washed out memories
I just can't seem to find
It seems I break
All my fragile dreams
When I call
The angel into me
So what I have I done?
What have I done?
Have I made you proud
Or have I driven you away?
Her eyes are complicated
Silently she slips away
And in her wake I find
A cascade of regret
All that I believe in
The anchors in my heart
Cannot be for nothing
But we still stand apart...
In silence
It seems I break
All my fragile dreams
When I call
The angels back to me
So what have I done?
What have I done?
When time has claimed my fire
And left me in exile?
Shadows cross in essence
As part of what I am
When you try to see the angel
Standing like a man
Paper hearts and faded pictures
That we cherish all the while
And guard with eyes of distance forests
Raining tears placed in exile
What have I done?
Who have I become?
Though these words may come alive
Poets and prophets die
God are you sleeping?
God are you dreaming?
Are you watching me tonight
Finding tears to mark the time?
God are you sleeping?
God are you dreaming?
Are you crying for my life?
Falling angels in exile
God are you sleeping?
Never give up
God are you dreaming?
Never give in
There is fight within
Do you hear me in the dark?
God are you sleeping?
Never give up
God are you dreaming?
Never give in
There is fight within
And I long to see your smile
What have I done?
Who have I become?
Though these words may come alive
Poets and prophets... die
Are slipping through time
In washed out memories
I just can't seem to find
It seems I break
All my fragile dreams
When I call
The angel into me
So what I have I done?
What have I done?
Have I made you proud
Or have I driven you away?
Her eyes are complicated
Silently she slips away
And in her wake I find
A cascade of regret
All that I believe in
The anchors in my heart
Cannot be for nothing
But we still stand apart...
In silence
It seems I break
All my fragile dreams
When I call
The angels back to me
So what have I done?
What have I done?
When time has claimed my fire
And left me in exile?
Shadows cross in essence
As part of what I am
When you try to see the angel
Standing like a man
Paper hearts and faded pictures
That we cherish all the while
And guard with eyes of distance forests
Raining tears placed in exile
What have I done?
Who have I become?
Though these words may come alive
Poets and prophets die
God are you sleeping?
God are you dreaming?
Are you watching me tonight
Finding tears to mark the time?
God are you sleeping?
God are you dreaming?
Are you crying for my life?
Falling angels in exile
God are you sleeping?
Never give up
God are you dreaming?
Never give in
There is fight within
Do you hear me in the dark?
God are you sleeping?
Never give up
God are you dreaming?
Never give in
There is fight within
And I long to see your smile
What have I done?
Who have I become?
Though these words may come alive
Poets and prophets... die

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
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/

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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.
Wow, no comments on this song yet?
Anyway, I think it refers to splitting up with someone you deeply love, but who equally hurt you. You so long to be with them because you love them;
"The anchors in my heart Cannot be for nothing"
"It seems I break All my fragile dreams When I call The angels back to me"
makes me think about being hurt in the relationship.
On the other hand that could be interpreted as all the pain only came after splitting up. The anchors makes me think it was his choice of splitting up, breaking all the dreams makes me think of rejection, maybe when he realises how much he truely loved his "angel" but couldn't get back together?
