I see so much beauty
Hidden way beneath your skin
That sure ain't no sin
You say you ain't pretty
Not in any place it counts
But I am blind to all that you doubt

It ain't perfection for which I would die
It ain't just somebody just made me feel alive

Can't stop dreaming about this good love
See, heaven sent me an angel looking just like you do
Can't stop dreaming about this good love
Sometimes, baby, you make me feel alive

You know why he wants you
But I ain't the same as him
Look a little further within
Your life has had some long nights
All those tears I wipe away
Just close your eyes and hear what I say

It ain't perfection for which I would die
It ain't just somebody just made me feel alive

Can't stop dreaming about this good love
See, heaven sent me an angel looking just like you do
Can't stop dreaming about this good love
Sometimes, baby, you make me feel alive

I never thought I'd find the one - it's like a dream
Gotta get closer to you, if you know what I mean, baby
Don't be scared - I'll never hurt you, never lie
Truth is I need you, cause you make me feel alive

Can't stop dreaming about this good love
See, heaven sent me an angel looking just like you do
Can't stop dreaming about this good love
Sometimes, baby, you make me feel alive
Can't stop dreaming about this good love
See, heaven sent me an angel looking just like you do
Can't stop dreaming about this good love
Sometimes, baby, you make me feel alive

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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

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.
