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”
Sculpturing your world with passionate craft
Spinning the wheels of impending doom
I bit the pall, I now see through walls
I am ascending straight in circles
Biting your tongue, gnawing your tail
Reach the cycle to higher grounds
Biting your tongue, gnawing your tail
Beat the circle from where you bound
From where you bound
Dazzling blackness, obscur clarity
Your endless motions will set us free
Burning darkness, no more linearity
What you have is what you see
With grandour they shed corrosive tears
Filling the whole creation with fear
And do they know how I feel?
How many tears so I can take my leave?
Soundless echoes surrounding
That blissful mystical lane
Your mouth full of excrement ain't
No more excruciating pain
Coz I now see through walls
I can now see through walls
I am ascending straight in circles
I am ascending straight in circles
Spinning the wheels of impending doom
I bit the pall, I now see through walls
I am ascending straight in circles
Biting your tongue, gnawing your tail
Reach the cycle to higher grounds
Biting your tongue, gnawing your tail
Beat the circle from where you bound
From where you bound
Dazzling blackness, obscur clarity
Your endless motions will set us free
Burning darkness, no more linearity
What you have is what you see
With grandour they shed corrosive tears
Filling the whole creation with fear
And do they know how I feel?
How many tears so I can take my leave?
Soundless echoes surrounding
That blissful mystical lane
Your mouth full of excrement ain't
No more excruciating pain
Coz I now see through walls
I can now see through walls
I am ascending straight in circles
I am ascending straight in circles

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.

“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.

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.
