This is the Killing zone!

All of the guns, drugs, hard thugs out on the street
They'll never see, they won't believe I'll make a name for myself
No good young blood is what they're all calling me
Misunderstood, I'm just a lost soul Lost like everyone else

The pressure is pressuring me
To prove to them that I can be
Father if you could see me now
You'd see the man I am and you would be so proud!

I'll take it all
I will take everything
Clean out that one stop shop stock, I guarantee
I'll be on top of the world
I'll be invincible

The pressure is pressuring me
This is who I am meant to be!

This is the killing zone!

I'll take it all
I will take everything
Clean out that one stop shop stock, I guarantee
I'll be on top of the world
I'll be invincible

They followed me into the streets
I turn around in disbelief
The window's down, what do I see?
Shotgun, cocked, pointing at me

The streets are unforgiving
They shoot to kill, nowhere to flee
Eye for an eye decisions
I stole from them, so they've come for me
The streets are so unforgiving
The pressure is pressuring me
The streets are so unforgiving
This was always my destiny

I took it all
Yeah, I took everything
Cleaned out that one stop shop stock, now look at me
A rotting corpse on the street
A wasted life I leave

This is the Killing zone!

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.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Just A Little Lovin'
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/

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
