What's the worst thing that could happen to you?
Take a chance tonight and try something new
You're getting boring, you're oh-so boring
And I don't recognize the zombie you turn into

Don't worry 'cause tonight I got you
You can take a seat, do what you normally do
I'm about to let you see
(This is) this is what'll happen if you ain't givin' your girl what she needs

Leave you, move on to a perfect stranger
You talk, I walk, wanna feel the danger
See me with him and it's turning you on
It's got me saying
Getting me back at the end of this song

Get outta my (hey)
Get outta my way
Got no more to say (hey)
He's taken your place
Get outta my way
Way outta my way
Got no more to say (hey)
He's taken your place
Get outta my way

Now I gotta taste, I wanna explore
Ain't going to waste, no, not anymore
You goin' hard now to win my heart, but
Too many times now you've been calling her

Don't worry 'cause tonight I got you
You can take a seat, do what you normally do
I'm about to let you see (let you see)
This is what'll happen if you ain't givin' your girl what she needs

Leave you, move on to a perfect stranger
You talk, I walk, wanna feel the danger
See me with him and it's turning you on
It's got me saying
Getting me back at the end of this song

Get outta my (hey)
Get outta my way
Got no more to say (hey)
He's taken your place
Get outta my way
Way outta my way (hey)
Got no more to say (hey)
He's taken your place
Get outta my

And, no, I ain't goin' home 'cause I wanna stay
But I won't be alone, no how, no way
Now I've showed you what I'm made of (made of)
This is what'll happen if you ain't givin' your girl what she needs

Leave you, move on to a perfect stranger
You talk, I walk, wanna feel the danger
See me with him and it's turning you on
It's got me saying
Getting me back at the end of this song

Get outta my (hey)
Get outta my way (hey)
Got no more to say (hey)
He's taken your place
Get outta my (hey)
Way outta my way (hey)
Got no more to say (hey)
He's taken your place
Get outta my way

No, I ain't goin' home (uhuh uhuh uhuh)
But I won't be alone (uhuh uhuh uhuh)
Now I've showed you what I'm made of (uhuh uhuh uhuh)
Now I've showed you what I'm made of (uhuh uhuh uhuh ah)

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.

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.
Album art
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

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.
