The clever make the world weary
To pull it from its moorings
To fawn the young wicked roost
To weather the coming storms

They are inside now
They are inside
They are inside now
Saturnine

How I love to waste your time
Saturnine
Saturnine

Goodbye all you widows
Tearstained underneath
Blessed to the many
Who are seeking some relief

They are inside
They are inside now
They are inside
They are inside
You'll always run
But you cannot find
Saturnine

Saturnine
Saturnine
You were waiting all this time
Saturnine
Saturnine

Camera take this picture
The wreckage is outside
Quick may you hurry
We are losing our light

We are inside now
We are inside
We are inside
You'll always run
But you'll never find
Saturnine

Saturnine
How I'd love to make you mine
Saturnine
Saturnine

To the ages I am speaking
To the creatures I am sky
Bloody simple features
Everyone chooses sides

Shatter this faith broken
Walk these summer miles
Leave here while forgotten
Carrying forth this child
Saturnine

    I think this song deal with the situation of all people that haven't a real position in this life.This persons have no idea of time(we are losing time)(we are losing mind.) People how search answers in the future will never be happy.Camera take this picture(do we need a picture to remember?).You 'll always cried because you'll never have a real answer.There's no answer in this world.

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.

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.
