This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I won't accept your fear
Another stagnant year
I'm pro-American but anti-politician
They'll trade you a voice
For an illusion of choice
Truth hits like a goddamn premonition
Inroads to the hangman's noose
We got a lot to lose
Is this where you wanna be?
Exhumed they're not through with you
Until you're left exposed
Is this who you wanna be?
Take what's been given or have none
The only claim of the workers in song
Get back in line you've all been warned
"We was beat when we was born"
Inroads to the hangman's noose
We got a lot to lose
Is this where you wanna be?
Exhumed they're not through with you
Until you're left exposed
Is this who you wanna be?
Is this who you wanna be?
Is this who you wanna be?
Like a shark that's combing the surface
We got a taste for blood
Don't believe what the pacifist tells you
No war, no peace
Reign!
Don't believe what the pacifist tells you
No war, no peace
Another stagnant year
I'm pro-American but anti-politician
They'll trade you a voice
For an illusion of choice
Truth hits like a goddamn premonition
Inroads to the hangman's noose
We got a lot to lose
Is this where you wanna be?
Exhumed they're not through with you
Until you're left exposed
Is this who you wanna be?
Take what's been given or have none
The only claim of the workers in song
Get back in line you've all been warned
"We was beat when we was born"
Inroads to the hangman's noose
We got a lot to lose
Is this where you wanna be?
Exhumed they're not through with you
Until you're left exposed
Is this who you wanna be?
Is this who you wanna be?
Is this who you wanna be?
Like a shark that's combing the surface
We got a taste for blood
Don't believe what the pacifist tells you
No war, no peace
Reign!
Don't believe what the pacifist tells you
No war, no peace

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.

“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Punchline

Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Head > Heels

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
