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 want to Stay and wake up in your room
Like I use too.
What do you say?
I just want to make it all up to you.
I never Meant to chase you away,
Can we take an hour and make up in the shower,
and I won't say anything.
Just let me wake beside you like i used too
I don't want it to be the end.
Chorus
You'd be my own addiction
I need more of you everyday
You make the situation,Tempt me in every way.
I want to talk and wake up the whole floor with the music on
Whatever you want.
I just need to know what I did wrong,
I never wanna give you up.
Maybe we can stay in for the weekend
and I won't try anything,
But i can never stay as your ex girlfriend
I don't want it to be the end.
Chorus
You'd be my own addiction
I need more of you everyday
You make the situation,Tempt me in every way
I know you have me addicted, to stuff
You gave me too much,
Now I know it's not that easy giving up
I can't get enough,
Now i know it won't be easy
I can't give it up.
My own Addiction 4x
I know you have me addicted, to stuff
You gave me too much
Now I know it's not that easy giving up
I can't get enough
You can be so damn Addictive
Like a drug i need more of
Now I know it won't be easy
I can't give it up
My own Addiction 4x
Addicted.......Addicted.....
Like I use too.
What do you say?
I just want to make it all up to you.
I never Meant to chase you away,
Can we take an hour and make up in the shower,
and I won't say anything.
Just let me wake beside you like i used too
I don't want it to be the end.
Chorus
You'd be my own addiction
I need more of you everyday
You make the situation,Tempt me in every way.
I want to talk and wake up the whole floor with the music on
Whatever you want.
I just need to know what I did wrong,
I never wanna give you up.
Maybe we can stay in for the weekend
and I won't try anything,
But i can never stay as your ex girlfriend
I don't want it to be the end.
Chorus
You'd be my own addiction
I need more of you everyday
You make the situation,Tempt me in every way
I know you have me addicted, to stuff
You gave me too much,
Now I know it's not that easy giving up
I can't get enough,
Now i know it won't be easy
I can't give it up.
My own Addiction 4x
I know you have me addicted, to stuff
You gave me too much
Now I know it's not that easy giving up

You can be so damn Addictive
Like a drug i need more of

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/
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.
Page
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
