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.
Curse you all men
Whose coil is strong
I recognize the sparrow's heart
Beneath the theatre of misery
Disbelievers shalt by dawn
Be forced to forever mourn
Curse you all men
The resent my empire
'Cause I have risen again
At war this time
The truth I speak is your deceit
My word is your defeat
And you shalt not be able to hide anymore
The prophecy will conquer at last
Your sense of reality
With mission to kill the theatre of misery
He has risen again
Armed with the source of sin
And as humans shalt fade
He shalt inherit their strength
Men of the damned
You will reluctantly
Secure his eternal victory
Curse you all men
Whose coil is strong
I recognize the sparrow's heart
Beneath the theatre of misery
Disbelievers shalt by dawn
Be forced to forever mourn
The truth I speak is your deceit
My word is your defeat
Yes, you are indeed the few
I am the one
Whose coil is strong
I recognize the sparrow's heart
Beneath the theatre of misery
Disbelievers shalt by dawn
Be forced to forever mourn
Curse you all men
The resent my empire
'Cause I have risen again
At war this time
The truth I speak is your deceit
My word is your defeat
And you shalt not be able to hide anymore
The prophecy will conquer at last
Your sense of reality
With mission to kill the theatre of misery
He has risen again
Armed with the source of sin
And as humans shalt fade
He shalt inherit their strength
Men of the damned
You will reluctantly
Secure his eternal victory
Curse you all men
Whose coil is strong
I recognize the sparrow's heart
Beneath the theatre of misery
Disbelievers shalt by dawn
Be forced to forever mourn
The truth I speak is your deceit
My word is your defeat
Yes, you are indeed the few
I am the one

Just A Little Lovin'

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/

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.
