Break a mirror and ignore all my features
The fate I'm facing
See what I could do without safety
Make my palms bleed, do all asked of me
With my hand over my heart
Made a pledge to never grow up a bitter dinosaur
Never make mistakes that I made before
Never feel entitled
I just want to know I've contributed
I wanna live selfless
Instead of just floating by
Living every day like it's my last
I can catch up on my sleep when I die
Aren't you sick of being selfish?
I wanna show that I try
Living every day like it's my last
I can catch up on my sleep when I die
Anxiety is a crippler
Nothing meaner than loaded eyes
Followed by a smirk and a whisper
As I pass you by, but I'll let it fly
'cause my hand is sewn to my heart
With the pledge
To never grow up a bitter dinosaur
Never make mistakes that I made before
Never feel entitled
I just want to know I've contributed
I wanna live selfless
Instead of just floating by
Living every day like it's my last
I can catch up on my sleep when I die
Aren't you sick of being selfish?
I wanna show that I try
Living every day like it's my last
I can catch up on my sleep when I die
If I'm not making any sense
Then you're not at fault
You just haven't yet felt emptiness
Like the taste of a flat soda
Thought it would be so sweet
You got all you dreamed but still feel incomplete
No, I'm not
Gonna settle anymore no, I'm not
Gonna hold my tongue
If you haven't made enemies
Then you've never stood for anything
You're just dust in the breeze
I'm just dust in the breeze
But I want to be a hurricane
I wanna live selfless
Instead of just floating by
I wanna live selfless
I can catch up on my sleep when I die
I wanna live selfless
I wanna show that I try
Living every day like it's my last
I can catch up on my sleep when I die
The fate I'm facing
See what I could do without safety
Make my palms bleed, do all asked of me
With my hand over my heart
Made a pledge to never grow up a bitter dinosaur
Never make mistakes that I made before
Never feel entitled
I just want to know I've contributed
I wanna live selfless
Instead of just floating by
Living every day like it's my last
I can catch up on my sleep when I die
Aren't you sick of being selfish?
I wanna show that I try
Living every day like it's my last
I can catch up on my sleep when I die
Anxiety is a crippler
Nothing meaner than loaded eyes
Followed by a smirk and a whisper
As I pass you by, but I'll let it fly
'cause my hand is sewn to my heart
With the pledge
To never grow up a bitter dinosaur
Never make mistakes that I made before
Never feel entitled
I just want to know I've contributed
I wanna live selfless
Instead of just floating by
Living every day like it's my last
I can catch up on my sleep when I die
Aren't you sick of being selfish?
I wanna show that I try
Living every day like it's my last
I can catch up on my sleep when I die
If I'm not making any sense
Then you're not at fault
You just haven't yet felt emptiness
Like the taste of a flat soda
Thought it would be so sweet
You got all you dreamed but still feel incomplete
No, I'm not
Gonna settle anymore no, I'm not
Gonna hold my tongue
If you haven't made enemies
Then you've never stood for anything
You're just dust in the breeze
I'm just dust in the breeze
But I want to be a hurricane
I wanna live selfless
Instead of just floating by
I wanna live selfless
I can catch up on my sleep when I die
I wanna live selfless
I wanna show that I try
Living every day like it's my last
I can catch up on my sleep when I die

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.
