The night has bitten to the core of me,
It sinks it teeth in as this ship fades in the cold,
Trembling as the walls will laugh and bleed,
I'm never in reverie, but in black and gold.

Everybody tries to blame it on the give and take in
The duality of life
There's a dagger and it lingers in the mind's eye open
To devils and the like

They take me a long way down.

Dance upon the water, watch as the demons set afire,
Hold the head below and choke as the heathens drown a while.

Darkness is swelling up all inside me,
I'm reaching for the air.

The night is tearing down the walls in me,
I long for touches of nothing, everything goes black as I bleed,
There's a dagger and it lingers in the mind's eye open
To devils and the like

They take me a long way down.

Dance upon the water, watch the demons set afire,
Hold the head below and choke as the heathens drown a while.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.

Just A Little Lovin'
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/

Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
