Until a better time
You walk along that line
Love me
Love me

You do it
You do it
Until you're blue
You want it, ah

Into another place
You walk along the face
Love me
Love me

You do it
You do it
Until you're blue
You want it, ah

Sandwiches time
Sandwiches time
Sandwiches on my mind

You do it
You do it
Until you're blue
You want it, ah

Sandwiches time
Sandwiches time
Sandwiches on my mind

Into another place
Into another place
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

    This song touched my heart. I cry every time I listen to it, it's very emotional to me...I had a wonderful sandwich once, and it was hard to say goodbye and eat such a beautiful sandwich.

    this song is freakin genius. it goes from talking about real deep, philosophical things to sandwiches. it's too bad such a beautiful melody was used on a song mostly about sandwiches..lol

    i have no clue if there's supposed to be some hidden meaning to this song or what...it's very amusing nonetheless....if i had to make a guess it'd be that he's being tempted into something he doesn't want and is trying to get his mind on something else like sandwhiches i guess... ;)

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”

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.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
