The first track is "Godspeed," the first single of their third album Cities, released on February 20, 2007.
The second is "The Haunting," which appears on the compilation album Lost Songs, released on November 20, 2007.
Singer Stephen Christian discussed the meaning of Godspeed in an interview: It's about different stories through rock and roll history where drugs played a major downfall or death in the persona's life, such as Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Nico, Moon, Vicious, etc.
I feel that "rock stars" start believing their own hype and begin on an egocentric journey that inevitably ends in destruction.
Not as much lyrically but it got frustrating because we couldn't figure out the chorus to the song.
