Yeah right!

Break down
And shake for me
Nothing ever is the way
You want it to be
Nothing even tastes right
Now that it's over

Break down
And shake for me
Don't write words
Unless you want me to read them
Nothing really matters
Now that it's over

Maybe we can be friends
Now that we're older
We can have fun
Like we did in the early days
Now that it's over

Yeah right!

Break down
And shake for me
Nothing ever seems
The way it ought to be
Nothing ever seems right
Now that it's over

Yeah now maybe we can be friends
Maybe we can be closer
We can have fun
Like we did in the old days
Now that it's over

My bad dreams just don't seem the same
Baby without you
I wish you were willing to accept the blame
Yeah for everything you do

My nightmares just don't scare me now
Baby without you
I wish that I could find the words to tell
In the best way possible
You and your friends to go to hell

Ooh, break up time
Is never easy to do
Nothing ever ends
The way you want it to
Nothing seems to make sense
Now that it's over

Yeah now maybe we can be friends
Yeah now that you're leaving
You can be nice to me
Maybe I'm dreaming
I am a lot better now than just OK
Maybe I am just waking up
In my own way
Now that it's over

Now that it's over

My bad dreams just don't seem the same
Baby without you
I wish you were willing to accept the blame
Yeah for all the shitty things you do
Nightmares just don't scare me now
Baby without you
I wish that I could find the words to tell
You to go politely go fuck yourself
Yeah now that it's over

Now that it's over [Repeat x4]

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/

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
