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.
We say the worst things to the ones we love
Use words to cut deep, things I'm ashamed of
When I feel like I'm trapped I fight dirty
Forget about the shit that I said at 10:30
I don't even know what we're doing here
I'm turning into the person I was last year
I don't even know what we're doing here
I'm losing everything that I love
It's just another fight
Just give it one more night
cause you know I hate moving on
It's just another fight
Just give it one more night
You know I'll never say when I'm wrong
But I'm wrong
I'll take it back, take back all of my actions
We'll make it work, shut out all the distractions
I wasn't proud, proud of how you were treated
You know I always hate the way I get what I needed
I don't even know what we're doing here
I'm turning into the person I was last year
I don't even know what we're doing here
I'm losing everything that I love
It's just another fight
Just give it one more night
cause you know I hate moving on
It's just another fight
Just give it one more night
You know I'll never say when I'm wrong
And nobody knows me like you do
I'm so ashamed, so ashamed of my actions
Now take it back, take it back
We say the worst things to the ones we love
use words to cut deep, things I'm wishing up
When I feel like I'm trapped I fight dirty
cause when I feel like you're trapped
It's just another fight
Just give it one more night
cause you know that I hate moving on
It's just another fight
Just give it one more night
You know I'll never say when I'm wrong
And nobody knows me like you do
Use words to cut deep, things I'm ashamed of
When I feel like I'm trapped I fight dirty
Forget about the shit that I said at 10:30
I don't even know what we're doing here
I'm turning into the person I was last year
I don't even know what we're doing here
I'm losing everything that I love
It's just another fight
Just give it one more night
cause you know I hate moving on
It's just another fight
Just give it one more night
You know I'll never say when I'm wrong
But I'm wrong
I'll take it back, take back all of my actions
We'll make it work, shut out all the distractions
I wasn't proud, proud of how you were treated
You know I always hate the way I get what I needed
I don't even know what we're doing here
I'm turning into the person I was last year
I don't even know what we're doing here
I'm losing everything that I love
It's just another fight
Just give it one more night
cause you know I hate moving on
It's just another fight
Just give it one more night
You know I'll never say when I'm wrong
And nobody knows me like you do
I'm so ashamed, so ashamed of my actions
Now take it back, take it back
We say the worst things to the ones we love
use words to cut deep, things I'm wishing up
When I feel like I'm trapped I fight dirty
cause when I feel like you're trapped
It's just another fight
Just give it one more night
cause you know that I hate moving on
It's just another fight
Just give it one more night
You know I'll never say when I'm wrong
And nobody knows me like you do

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
