Signal to noise
You're breaking the ratio
It's hard to make out anything at all
We've got a choice
To say that we'll fake it or
Agree to hang it up when we decide
That we're much better off just keeping quiet

I know that you think you're testing me
But I've already learned a lesson here
So, baby, not another word
There's no need to make a mess of this
But you only keep mixing messages
So, baby, not another word

Something between us, barely a filament
Was this connection ever real at all?
If what you mean is purely subliminal
And I'm just guessing every single time
Then I suspect we need to draw a line here

I know that you think you're testing me
But I've already learned a lesson here
So, baby, not another word
There's no need to make a mess of this
But you only keep mixing messages
So, baby, not another word

I know that you think you're testing me
But I've already learned my lesson here
So, baby, not another word
There's no need to make a mess of this
But you only keep mixing messages
So, baby, not another word

I know that you think you're testing me
But I've already learned my lesson here
So baby not another word
There's no need to make a mess of this
But you only keep mixing messages
So, baby, not another word

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
