This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Vincennes Vincennes Vincennes Indiana Vincennes Vincennes Vincennes my hometown
I'm coming back clear the track I'm someone to someone in Vincennes my hometown
Have you ever known how lonesome it can be in the big city
Let me tell you friend it's lonesome
Everybody runnin' busy with their own affairs
There I was in a crowd lost and no one cares
I've often heard if you want a break go to the big city that's the place to start
But the only break I saw anybody get in the heart of that city was a broken heart
Vincennes Vincennes...

I've often heard if you want a break go to the big city that's the place to start
But the only break I saw anybody get in the heart of that city was a broken heart
Vincennes Vincennes...

Another Love
Tom Odell
Tom Odell
I think the meaning is pretty clear. This person got really burned in a previous relationship, and because of this is unable to love and show care in his present one, even though he so badly wants to. It's lovely song, and very sad. You can really feel how defeated and frustrated he is with himself.
Sunglasses at Night
Corey Hart

In the 1980s, sunglasses were a common fashion for people who wanted to adopt a "tough guy" persona (note all the cop shows from that era -- Simon & Simon, Miami Vice, etc. -- where the lead characters wore shades). So I think this song is about a guy who wears shades as a way of hiding his insecurity after learning that his girlfriend is cheating on him. He's trying to pretend that he's a "tough guy" to hide the fact that his girlfriend's affair is disturbing him.

This track is about is about questioning why the sky would choose to be blue if it had the choice to be anything else, “blue also meaning sad,” states frontman Aaron Pauley. “It's about comforting a loved one in a time of loss by telling them you feel blue, too.”
