All this time we've waited just to see hope decimated by the setting sun
And all the while frustrated because a heart that's underrated
Is always losing blood, we're always losing blood

You'll never know what it means to give, receive and not forget
Another hole as we bleed it out then breath it all back in
If you could only see we're dying faster, faster now

All this time we've waited just to see hope decimated by the setting sun
And all the while frustrated because a heart that's perforated
Is always losing blood, we're always losing blood

You'll never know what it means to give, receive and not forget
Another hole as we bleed it out then breath it all back in
If you could only see we're dying
If you could only see we're dying faster, faster now

All this time we've waited just to see hope decimated by the setting sun
And all the while frustrated because a heart that's worn and dated
Is always losing blood
And all the while frustrated because a heart that's worn and dated
Is always losing blood

All this time we've waited just to see hope decimated by the setting sun
And all the while frustrated because a heart that's worn and dated
Is always losing blood

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

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.
