(OK!)
Pretty?
What is it? Brand new? Well that's not the way I think of you.
You'll touch, in a minute; but that's not what I want to do.
We are two strangers,
We might never have met.
We can talk forever, I understand what you said.
But I'm...not in love.
Do people really fall in love?
What does it take to fall in love?

(Ya know it!)
Happy
Is there time for this? Is this responsibility?
Boy time, girl time is that the difference between you and me?
I won't ask any questions,
Who needs to make a new start.
I choose to believe you,
I said before that I can't.

'Cause I'm not in love.
What does it take to fall in love?
Why should I want to fall in love? (Do people really fall in love?)

Feelings?
Take it easy baby
Don't let your feelings get in the way.
I believe, some day, we can live in a world without love.
I can answer your questions,
If you won't twist what I say.
Please respect my opinions,
They will be respected someday.
Because we don't need love. (But, I'm not in love)
I believe that we don't need love.
There'll come a day when we won't need love.
(Do people really fall in love?)

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.

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.

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.
