Shade

Feeder

Would it always be the same
Give it all to reason
Let me down
You watch me drown
Hold me down I can't explain
Though I never could - that's the problem
Fight about the plate again,
Climbing up to free myself.
I don't need this
Innovation comes
Do you really know
I'm falling
I just fall into shade
All I want to do is pray
Give me back the freedom
If it comes the only way
Clearance sets me free
... twist and turn
Looking at the same thing
Flicking back the pages
Just enough for me to see myself
I don't need this
Innovation comes
Do you really know
I'm trying to believe
As life turns on
Do you see it
Do you really know
I'm falling
I will fall into space
As funny though it seems
That I can dream a little
It's pulling me inside
The wheels still turn
...as the sun
Touch my face
...back home
I don't need this
Innovation comes,
I'm trying to believe
As life drags on
Do you see it
Do you really know
I'm falling

Bron-Y-Aur Stomp
Led Zeppelin
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.

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.

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.

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.
