You can almost see the sunshine
If you lean back far enough
112 stinks to Heaven
Like it was sent from God above
I got four stone walls for curtains
I got a ringing in my ear
The shake of your hips and your blue-green eyes
Have got me missing you and wishing you were here

We could hang out
In the laundry room every single day
They got an A/C, they got a Coke machine
And we could waste the summer away
If you would make some sandwiches then
Baby, I would go and get some beers
The shake of your hips and your blue green eyes
Have got me missing you and wishing you were here

Location matters the most; I'll be Ghost Rider
You be the ghost of a dog set afire by the city lights
It's those city lights that got me burning for your love
Last night, I finally gave up; I was neither here nor there
I thought that if I can't make it here, I can't make it anywhere
I wake up shaking every morning, I've been shaking all year
The shake of your hips and your blue green eyes
Have got me missing you and wishing you were here

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.

Punchline
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
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.
