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.
Let's see if you get frightened
All your girl by your
Take down a
... Of believin'
Been around take it down
Been around
She's got nothing to do but
An when you feel that life isn't ending
Then you see everything that can be the eye
And when the... you let ring
So take this peace of truth take this
So shake this bowling juice
Not receiving
Not receiving
Yeah
Let's see if you can hide...
From that what touched
What a please heaving down
If there is nothing to do right
To see it...
The moonlight
And when you feel that life isn't ending
Take this piece of truth
Take my future an let it grow I got a good hand of petrention
I saw the news an wondered why
Why they always make me wanna come on mondays
Why they use to did my daddy
So take this piece of truth
Not receiving
Not receiving
Yeah
All your girl by your
Take down a
... Of believin'
Been around take it down
Been around
She's got nothing to do but
An when you feel that life isn't ending
Then you see everything that can be the eye
And when the... you let ring
So take this peace of truth take this
So shake this bowling juice
Not receiving
Not receiving
Yeah
Let's see if you can hide...
From that what touched
What a please heaving down
If there is nothing to do right
To see it...
The moonlight
And when you feel that life isn't ending
Take this piece of truth
Take my future an let it grow I got a good hand of petrention
I saw the news an wondered why
Why they always make me wanna come on mondays
Why they use to did my daddy
So take this piece of truth
Not receiving

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/
