For your next trick, I'll volunteer.
If you can be quick, I'll disappear.
And as for your questions,
I'll bite my lip to beat you.
In proper positon,
I never had much to lose

'Cause all ya are, is all ya got,
I tell the truth, I lie a lot,
C'mon and stay, c'mon and start,
I'll know the way.
I know it's the hardest part.

You have always got a smile beneath your sneer.
Even when I'm coming down you make it clear.
So what else could I do?
I hold my breath and shoot through.
Your friends talk about you,
I'm sorry what can I do?

'Cause what ya are, is all ya got,
I tell the truth, I lie a lot,
C'mon and stay, c'mon and start,
I'll know the way.
I know it's hard,

And ll ya are, is all ya got,
I tell the truth, I lie a lot,
C'mon and stay, c'mon and start,
I'll know the way.
I know it's the hardest part.

You miss all the stars
When you look for the lights
Tell me, would you die
For all the songs you write?
I watch you just like a TV show

All ya are is all ya got,
I tell the truth; I lie a lot
Come on and stay
Come on and start
I know the way
I know it's hard

All ya are is all ya got
I tell the truth; I lie a lot
Come on and stay
Come on and start
I know the way
I know it's hard

All you are is all you got
And I confess, I lie a lot
Yes, all you are is all you got
It's all you got

This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io

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.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

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.
