Why do you keep looking out the window
Is it something left behind or never found
Hm, do I even want to know

Now if you knew what I was thinking
I wonder if it'd even draw a tear
Oh, there's just one way to find out

Go, go, go

Did sirens steal your heart when you weren't looking
Where'd you learn to lie the way you do
Looks like you made up your mind

I'd have to say I didn't see this coming
But who does
You won't see me standing in the door

So go, go, go

I don't want to hurt you (Do you ever listen)
I don't want to run (You're not the only one)
I don't want to touch you (Tired of being broken)
Oh look what we've become (Look what we've become)
I don't even care (I don't really need you)

I don't want to go, go, go

I don't want to go (I don't want to stay)
I don't want to stay (I don't want to go)

    I don't wanna hurt you. ( Do you ever listen?) I don't wanna run. (You're not the only one) I don't wanna touch you. (I'm tired of being broken) Oh, look what we've become. (Look what we've become) I don't even care. (I really need you)

    these are the correct lyrics. the ones up there are sooo off.

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.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

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.
