This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
There's something in the wind
I can feel it blowing in
It's coming in softly
On the wings of a bomb
There's something in the wind
I can feel it blowing in
It's coming in hotly
And it's coming in strong
Lately I've been thinking it's just someone else's job to care
Who am I to sympathize when no one gave a damn?
I've been thinking it's just someone else's job to care
Who am I to wanna try but
Change is a powerful thing
People are powerful beings
Trying to find the power in me to be faithful
Change is a powerful thing
I feel it coming in me
Maybe by the time this song is done
I'll be able
To be honest, capable
Of holding you in my arms without letting you fall when I don't feel beautiful
Or stable
Maybe it's enough to just be where we are because
Everytime that we run
We don't know what it's from
Now we finally slow down
We feel close to it
There's a change gonna come
I don't know where or when
But whenever it does
We'll be here for it
There's something in the wind
I can feel it blowing in
It's coming in softly
On the wings of a song
There's something in the water
I can taste it turning sour
It's bitter, I'm coughing
But now it's in my blood
Lately I've been thinking it's just someone else's job to care
Who am I to sympathize when no one gave a damn?
I've been thinking it's just someone else's job to care
'Cause who am I to wanna try but
Change is a powerful thing
People are powerful beings
Trying to find the power in me to be faithful
Change is a powerful thing
I feel it coming in me
Maybe by the time this song is done
I'll be able
To be honest, capable
Of holding you in my arms without letting you fall when I don't feel beautiful
Or stable
Maybe it's enough to just be where we are because
Everytime that we run
We don't know what it's from
Now we finally slow down
We feel close to it
There's a change gonna come
I don't know where or when
But whenever it does
We'll be here for it
Hmmm
Yeah, whenever it does
We'll be here for it
Hmmm
Whenever it does
We'll be here for it
I can feel it blowing in
It's coming in softly
On the wings of a bomb
There's something in the wind
I can feel it blowing in
It's coming in hotly
And it's coming in strong
Lately I've been thinking it's just someone else's job to care
Who am I to sympathize when no one gave a damn?
I've been thinking it's just someone else's job to care
Who am I to wanna try but
Change is a powerful thing
People are powerful beings
Trying to find the power in me to be faithful
Change is a powerful thing
I feel it coming in me
Maybe by the time this song is done
I'll be able
To be honest, capable
Of holding you in my arms without letting you fall when I don't feel beautiful
Or stable
Maybe it's enough to just be where we are because
Everytime that we run
We don't know what it's from
Now we finally slow down
We feel close to it
There's a change gonna come
I don't know where or when
But whenever it does
We'll be here for it
There's something in the wind
I can feel it blowing in
It's coming in softly
On the wings of a song
There's something in the water
I can taste it turning sour
It's bitter, I'm coughing
But now it's in my blood
Lately I've been thinking it's just someone else's job to care
Who am I to sympathize when no one gave a damn?
I've been thinking it's just someone else's job to care
'Cause who am I to wanna try but
Change is a powerful thing
People are powerful beings
Trying to find the power in me to be faithful
Change is a powerful thing
I feel it coming in me
Maybe by the time this song is done
I'll be able
To be honest, capable
Of holding you in my arms without letting you fall when I don't feel beautiful

We'll be here for it
Hmmm
Yeah, whenever it does
We'll be here for it
Hmmm
Whenever it does
We'll be here for it

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.

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

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.
Such a beautiful song, all about changes in the world and within Lana herself. From Lana during a magazine interview: "[...] Something has to change in the world. In the first verse, I sing 'there’s something in the wind, I can feel it blowing in', and in the second verse I sing that it’s 'on the wings of a song'. When I express my thoughts about change through lyrics and music, it can be about North Korea launching missiles or whatever, but it can also be directed inwards."
'Lately I've been thinking it's just someone else's job to care/Who am I to sympathize when no one gave a damn?' - With everything going on in the world, it can get to feel overwhelming, and as if you are powerless. If others don't care or aren't trying to make a change, then why should you?...
'Change is a powerful thing/People are powerful beings/Trying to find the power in me to be faithful' -- ...Nonetheless, Lana is trying her best to keep faith in others and remain hopeful.
'Maybe by the time this song is done I'll be able to be honest, capable of holding you in my arms without letting you fall when I don't feel beautiful or stable/Maybe it's enough to just be where we are because everytime that we run, we don't know what it's from/Now we finally slow down, we feel close to it' -- Lana stated in an interview that "honest, capable, beautiful and stable" shape the image of who she wants to become. When she says "we" in these lines, I feel as though she is having a conversation with herself. From Lana in the same interview: "In the second verse I make it personal, when it’s about being stable, strong, and secure, and not looking for new discoveries when I don’t even have my shit together."
'There's something in the water/I can taste it turning sour/It's bitter, I'm coughing/But now it's in my blood' -- In my opinion, these are the lyrics that are the most unclear in the song. Perhaps the water refers to being in a pure or childlike state, but then the negativities and realities of life "turn it sour." As you become older and more aware of the world, you become somewhat bitter towards others and the world, and it's hard to shake the feeling, as though it's in your blood.
'There's a change gonna come/I don't know where or when/But whenever it does, we'll be here for it' -- Despite uncertainties and negative things happening in the world and within ourselves, we must always look for a positive change on the horizon. We don't know where it will come, or when, but we need to hold onto hope that we'll be here to witness it.
