When I walk down the street
I be trippin' on my feet
And my clothes, they don't match
And my bluejeans need a patch
It's cold outside
Is there someone tonight?
It's cold outside
Would you let me come inside
Make it right?

Here it's clear
That I'm not getting better
When I fall down
You put me back together

My hairdo isn't cool
And my lips are lined with drool
I'm a mess since you left
You can use this fool
I'm a useless tool
It's cold outside
Is there someone there tonight?
It's cold outside
Would you let me come inside
And make it right?

Here it's clear
That I'm not getting better
When I fall down
You put me back together

I'm alone
In my room
I don't know what to do
When I fall down
You put me back together

And when I daydream
We're eating ice cream
It's such a nice scene
But then I wake up crying
I know I'd just be lying

Right here it's clear
That I'm not getting better
When I fall down
You put me back together
Here it's clear
That I'm not getting better
When I fall down
You put me back together

I'm alone
In my room
I don't know what to do
When I fall down
You put me back together

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
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.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.

Head > Heels
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.
