Face and embrace.
When decisions lead up to consequence.
I force down the drain
any remnants left I let slip away.

Because of all the things I couldn’t say to you.
Because of all the things I couldn’t say to you.
Because of all.

Give it some time. Mulling it over.
Pulling down the shades ‘til the nerves recover.
You wanna know what’s really bothering me?
I’m not passive aggressive, but I had to leave.

Because of all the things I couldn’t say to you.
Because of all the things I couldn’t say to you.
Because of all the things I couldn’t say to you.
Because of all the things I should have said.
Because of all.

Give it some time.
Mulling it over.
Pulling down shades
‘til I can settle the score.
Closer, a little more.
Closer, a little more...

Face and embrace.
When decisions lead up to consequence.
I force down the drain
any remnants left I let slip away.

Because of all the things I couldn’t say to you.
Because of all the things I couldn’t say to you.
Because of all the things I couldn’t say to you.
Give it time, just a little closer.
Because of all the things I couldn’t say to you.
Build it up just a little more.
Because of all the things I should have said to you.
Give it time, just a little closer.
Because of all the things I should have said to you.
Because of all.
Because of all the things I couldn’t say to you.

    My Interpretation

    I listen to this song and think of how there's some people I can never figure out how to tell them how I feel because of all the things I couldn't say to them.

This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io

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.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.

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.
