As your life draws close to an end
You kneel before your hollow savior
There will be no peace as you take your last breath
You lay with the beast

Cry to your god one more time
Before you close your eyes
And slip into oblivion
Cry to your god one more time
Before you close your eyes
To die and die again

Who you follow has never conquered death
And can’t save you now
What could have been
A distant memory
The torture will never cease
The lie you followed
Can’t save you now

Cry to your god one more time
Before you close your eyes
And slip into oblivion
Cry to your god one more time
Before you close your eyes
To die and die again

Damned forever to the abyss
Incinerated in the eternal furnace
You brought this on yourself as you chose
To follow this cheap imitation

Damned forever to the abyss
Incinerated in the eternal furnace
You brought this on yourself as you chose
To follow this cheap imitation

Damned forever to the abyss
Incinerated in the eternal furnace
You brought this on yourself as you chose
To follow this cheap imitation

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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,

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“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.
