Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
if i speak my mind, will you hear me?
if i reach to you, will you feel me?
if i kissed you, would you love me?
one less moment to break your heart
one less love to tear apart
don't want to be your lover
don't want to be your friend
the spell we've surrendered
so just let me pretend
you don't exist
our connection is fixed
one more arrow to pierce your soul
one more chance to let go
in the mountain song, sing the echoes
in the long meadows, chasin' shadows
in the endless night you whisper endless praise
swear to god that you won't change
don't want to be your lover
don't want to be your friend
faith takes me over
so just let me pretend
you're not real
visions surreal
spirit channels
don't want to be your lover
don't want to be your friend
if i fall in love, will you forgive me?
if i lose my way, will you choose me?
if i change my mind, will you change me?
if i reach to you, will you feel me?
if i kissed you, would you love me?
one less moment to break your heart
one less love to tear apart
don't want to be your lover
don't want to be your friend
the spell we've surrendered
so just let me pretend
you don't exist
our connection is fixed
one more arrow to pierce your soul
one more chance to let go
in the mountain song, sing the echoes
in the long meadows, chasin' shadows
in the endless night you whisper endless praise
swear to god that you won't change
don't want to be your lover
don't want to be your friend
faith takes me over
so just let me pretend
you're not real
visions surreal
spirit channels
don't want to be your lover
don't want to be your friend
if i fall in love, will you forgive me?
if i lose my way, will you choose me?
if i change my mind, will you change me?

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
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.
